SUPABASE_DB_URL is set in Coolify on the API service, and this WSL2 box can't
reach db.<ref>.supabase.co — so the backup runs INSIDE the API container, which
has the env + Supabase network. Made that real:
- Dockerfile: install postgresql-client (pg_dump/pg_restore) + rsync + bash in
the runner image.
- backup-db.sh: added an integrity fingerprint on every run — pg_restore --list
must parse the archive AND find ledger_entries, else the run FAILS + pages
(stronger than the size check; catches a corrupt/structureless dump).
- BACKUP-RUNBOOK.md: rewritten for the container-exec reality — host cron does
`docker exec <api> sh /app/scripts/backup-db.sh` (inherits env + network +
pg_dump), or a Coolify Scheduled Task. Full restore-fingerprint steps included.
MECHANISM FINGERPRINT (run locally, docker + pg16): seeded a ledger_entries
table (137 rows) → ran backup-db.sh (dump + validate: 22 archive objects,
ledger_entries present) → pg_restore into a scratch DB → 137 rows restored,
exact match. The dump/validate/restore path is proven end-to-end; it's the same
pg_dump/pg_restore that run in the container against Supabase.

scripts/backup-db.sh: nightly full-DB pg_dump via the direct connection string,
14-day local rotation, weekly off-box rsync copy, ntfy alert on any failure +
an undersized-dump guard (an empty dump is a silent failure). docs/BACKUP-
RUNBOOK.md: the ONE env var Kev must set (SUPABASE_DB_URL — the direct
db.<ref>.supabase.co:5432 URI, not the pooler), the cron line, the off-box
target (Hetzner Storage Box via rsync, simplest for a Hetzner box), and the
restore FINGERPRINT procedure (pg_restore into a scratch DB + count
ledger_entries — proves it's a real, restorable backup).
