src/handler/api/static/ was a committed build artifact: Next's content-hashed
chunk names churn on every build, so any two branches touching frontend/ were
guaranteed merge conflicts there, PR diffs drowned in generated churn, and a
forgotten `npm run export` could silently ship a UI older than its source.
- gitignore the export (plus frontend/out and .next were already covered) and
remove the 52 tracked files.
- Dockerfile grows a `ui` stage (npm ci + npm run build) whose output is copied
into the packaged tree before pip install, so the image published by docker.yml
always carries a UI built from exactly that commit's source — the frontend
build is now effectively part of CI with no new workflow.
- .dockerignore excludes frontend artifacts and any stale local export: COPY
into src/handler/api/static merges, so a checkout copy must never leak in.
- pyproject: hatchling skips VCS-ignored files, so `artifacts` re-includes the
export when present; absent it, the wheel builds fine and the API just runs
headless (it only mounts static/ when the directory exists).
- README documents the two build paths (Docker stage vs `npm run export` for
source installs) and the headless fallback.
Verified: wheel with the export present ships all 52 files (memory page
included); wheel without it builds clean and create_app() skips the UI mount.

Multi-stage Dockerfile (python:3.11-slim, non-root, /health healthcheck)
with an entrypoint that applies alembic migrations before uvicorn, a
compose file pairing the API with Postgres 16, and a CI workflow that
builds multi-arch images and pushes branch/semver/sha/latest tags to
ghcr.io. PR builds compile the image without pushing.
