restic/nh3-dev: add user workstation to backup scope

nh3-dev is the author's active dev workstation at the NH3 site
(nh3-dev.phasefinal.com). 22 GB home with 12 GB of development code,
shell history, dotfiles, Claude Code memory, and scripts that weren't
being captured by any fleet backup.

Writes site-local to the Synology rest-server (10.100.50.50:8000)
matching the nh3-docker pattern.

Excludes trim ~8 GB of regenerable caches + build outputs:
  - language toolchains (.cargo, .rustup, .npm, .m2, .gradle, go/pkg, etc.)
  - editor caches (.vscode-server, .vscode)
  - project build directories (node_modules, __pycache__, .venv, target,
    dist, build, .pytest_cache, .tox, .next, .nuxt) via `**/` patterns
  - trash / browser caches / steam / snap

Expected first snapshot ~14 GB, incrementals much smaller due to
content-defined dedup across dev code.

README walks through the full setup: resticprofile install, Synology-
side htpasswd addition (via DSM File Station or Container Manager since
the DSM SSH setup is tabled), repo init, profile deploy, timer enable,
first backup. Schedule is nightly 01:00 with systemd's Persistent=true
behavior so missed runs catch up at next boot (workstation is often
off/sleeping at backup time).

README.md fleet-coverage table updated to reflect 6/6 file-level
coverage (ana-docker, ana-ml2, nh3-docker, esh-docker-vm, vm-esh-nas,
nh3-dev).

# restic / nh3-dev
**User workstation** at the NH3 site (`nh3-dev.phasefinal.com`). Not a
server — active dev machine with ~12 GB of code in `~/development` that
wasn't being captured by any fleet backup.
Writes site-local to the Synology rest-server (`10.100.50.50:8000`) as
user `nh3-dev`. Same target as nh3-docker.
## What's backed up
| Path | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `/home/lkraven` | Dev code, dotfiles, shell history, notes, Claude Code memory, scripts |
| `/etc` | Host config |
| `/root` | Root's state (ssh keys, scripts) |
## What's excluded
Roughly 8 GB of regenerable caches/build-outputs:
- Language toolchain caches: `.cache`, `.rustup`, `.cargo/registry`,
`.cargo/git`, `.npm`, `.pnpm-store`, `.m2`, `.gradle`, `.conda`,
`go/pkg`, `.dotnet`
- Editor caches: `.vscode-server`, `.vscode`
- Project build output: `node_modules`, `__pycache__`, `.venv`, `venv`,
`target`, `dist`, `build`, `.pytest_cache`, `.tox`, `.next`, `.nuxt`
- Trash, browser caches, Steam
Expected first snapshot: **~14 GB**. Incrementals should be small once
dedup kicks in.
## Deploy
### 1. Install resticprofile (restic already present)
```bash
sudo bash -c "
curl -sfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creativeprojects/resticprofile/master/install.sh \
| sh -s -- -b /usr/local/bin
"
/usr/local/bin/resticprofile version
```
### 2. Add `nh3-dev` entry on the Synology rest-server `.htpasswd`
The Synology-side `.htpasswd` for `rest-server-nh3` lives wherever its
DATA_DIR points (see `stacks/rest-server-nh3/README.md` — probably
`/volume1/Backup/restic/.htpasswd` or similar).
Generate the bcrypt line from this workstation using the same pattern
we used for ana side:
```bash
# Generate locally, print the hash line
docker run --rm httpd:2.4-alpine htpasswd -nbB nh3-dev "<NEW-PW>"
# Copy the output line to clipboard
```
Then append it on the Synology. Options in order of friction:
- **DSM File Station**: navigate to the restic data dir → open `.htpasswd`
in the built-in text editor → paste the line → save.
- **DSM Container Manager**: open the rest-server-nh3 container's
Terminal tab → `echo '<bcrypt-line>' >> /data/.htpasswd` (exact path
matches the container's volume mount for DATA_DIR).
- **Once SSH to the Synology is set up** (tabled earlier): ssh +
`docker exec rest-server-nh3 sh -c '...'` or direct file append.
### 3. Install restic creds on nh3-dev (local workstation)
```bash
sudo install -d -o root -g root -m 0700 /etc/restic /var/lib/restic
# REST URL
sudo bash -c "cat > /etc/restic/restic.env && chmod 600 /etc/restic/restic.env"
# paste: RESTIC_REPOSITORY=rest:http://nh3-dev:<HTPASSWD-PW>@10.100.50.50:8000/nh3-dev/
# Enter, Ctrl-D
# Passphrase (generate in password manager first, then paste)
sudo bash -c "cat > /etc/restic/password && chmod 600 /etc/restic/password"
# paste: <REPO-PASSPHRASE>
# Enter, Ctrl-D
```
### 4. Init the repo
```bash
sudo bash -c '
set -a; . /etc/restic/restic.env; set +a
restic init
'
# prompt for passphrase twice — paste the same one you just installed
```
If you get `config file already exists`, a repo was created in an earlier
session. Either use the existing passphrase (overwrite
`/etc/restic/password` with it) or wipe and reinit — same dance as we
did for ana-ml2 and esh-docker-vm.
### 5. Verify
```bash
sudo bash -c '
set -a; . /etc/restic/restic.env; set +a
RESTIC_PASSWORD_FILE=/etc/restic/password restic snapshots
'
# expect: no snapshots found
```
### 6. Deploy profile
```bash
sudo install -o root -g root -m 0644 \
/home/lkraven/development/eshpfi-management/configs/restic/nh3-dev/profiles.yaml \
/etc/restic/profiles.yaml
sudo resticprofile --config /etc/restic/profiles.yaml show
```
### 7. Schedule + first backup
```bash
sudo resticprofile --config /etc/restic/profiles.yaml schedule --all
systemctl list-timers "resticprofile*"
# First backup — this will take a while (14 GB, initial dedup work)
sudo resticprofile --config /etc/restic/profiles.yaml backup --verbose
```
Expect the first run to take 5-15 minutes depending on NH3 LAN speed
and how much of `/home/lkraven/development` has high-entropy
(compressed) content.
## Restoring
```bash
sudo bash -c '
set -a; . /etc/restic/restic.env; set +a
RESTIC_PASSWORD_FILE=/etc/restic/password \
restic restore --target /tmp/restore latest --path /home/lkraven/development
'
```
## Watch items after first run
- **First snapshot size** — if much above 14 GB, something large slipped
past excludes. Inspect with `restic stats latest --host nh3-dev`.
- **Schedule catches missed runs** — the workstation is frequently off at
01:00. systemd's `Persistent=true` (resticprofile sets this by default
for system-level schedules) catches up after boot. After a few days of
normal use, confirm timer history with:
```bash
journalctl -u "resticprofile-backup@profile-default.service" --no-pager -n 20
```
