📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request updates the project to include the seeds directory in Docker container builds. Changes involve modifying .dockerignore and Dockerfile to preserve seeds during the build process, updating project metadata to reflect the feat/787-migrate-memories-seeder branch focus, and adding documentation of the new build approach.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Docker Build Configuration backend/.dockerignore, backend/Dockerfile	Modified Docker build process to include seeds directory: removed seeds from .dockerignore exclusion and updated Dockerfile find-delete command to preserve .py files in seeds while excluding migrations.
Project Metadata & Tracking .ralph/prd.json, .ralph/progress.txt, Changelog.md	Updated project metadata (branchName, description, userStories), progress notes reflecting Docker build improvements and US-001/US-002 implementation, and added v0.0.2-rc142 changelog entry for feat/787-migrate-memories-seeder.
Task Documentation tasks/prd-migrate-memories-seeder.md	New PRD document outlining the plan to include seeds/ directory in Docker builds with two user stories and acceptance criteria for build verification and workspace cleanup.

Poem

🐰 Seeds now travel in Docker's embrace,
No longer left behind in this race,
From .dockerignore, they flee,
Into builds where they'll be,
A seeder's sweet production-bound place! 🌱

Seeds .py in production image — lacks removal tracking, but risk is lower than initially framed.

The find pattern is correct and seeds are confirmed in the final image via COPY --from=builder /app /app (line 57). However, the security risk is less severe than stated:

• Actual contents: user_seeder.py contains test user credentials with hashed passwords (test1234), not plaintext secrets or API keys. The hashing mitigates direct exposure.
• Real concern: Seeds remain as readable .py source in production, inconsistent with the .pyc-only approach for the rest of the app. While test data is acceptable, this breaks the obfuscation model.
• Tracking gap confirmed: No issue, CI gate, or milestone target for seed removal. This drift risk is valid and should be addressed.

Open a follow-up issue pinned to a specific version milestone to enforce seeds removal (or conversion to .pyc + sealed data) before this becomes permanent.
