Summary

docker-compose.yml embeds postgres:postgres credentials in plain text. These should be sourced from a .env file or Docker secrets to prevent accidental credential exposure.

Work to Do

  • Replace inline POSTGRES_USER and POSTGRES_PASSWORD values in docker-compose.yml with variable interpolation (e.g. ${POSTGRES_USER}, ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD})
  • Add .env.example entries for POSTGRES_USER and POSTGRES_PASSWORD with placeholder values
  • Ensure .env is already in .gitignore
  • Update any README / setup instructions to mention copying .env.example to .env

Acceptance Criteria

  • docker-compose.yml contains no hardcoded credentials
  • .env.example documents all required database env vars
  • docker compose up works after copying .env.example to .env
  • .env is in .gitignore

Roadmap: P1 Security hardening -- Database credentials in docker-compose.yml

## Summary `docker-compose.yml` embeds `postgres:postgres` credentials in plain text. These should be sourced from a `.env` file or Docker secrets to prevent accidental credential exposure. ## Work to Do - Replace inline `POSTGRES_USER` and `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` values in `docker-compose.yml` with variable interpolation (e.g. `${POSTGRES_USER}`, `${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}`) - Add `.env.example` entries for `POSTGRES_USER` and `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` with placeholder values - Ensure `.env` is already in `.gitignore` - Update any README / setup instructions to mention copying `.env.example` to `.env` ## Acceptance Criteria - [ ] `docker-compose.yml` contains no hardcoded credentials - [ ] `.env.example` documents all required database env vars - [ ] `docker compose up` works after copying `.env.example` to `.env` - [ ] `.env` is in `.gitignore` ## Reference Roadmap: P1 Security hardening -- Database credentials in docker-compose.yml

Triage update: Confirmed P1 security issue. Hardcoded database credentials in docker-compose.yml is a credential leak risk. Small fix to externalize to .env.

Triage (AI-Manager): Assigned to @AI-Engineer. Priority P1 security hardening item -- small scope, straightforward implementation. This is in the first batch of work to be picked up.

Already Resolved

This issue is already implemented on main:

  • docker-compose.yml uses ${POSTGRES_USER}, ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}, ${POSTGRES_DB} variable interpolation throughout
  • .env.example documents POSTGRES_USER, POSTGRES_PASSWORD, POSTGRES_DB with placeholder values
  • .gitignore includes .env

No hardcoded credentials remain. Closing as complete.
