feat(hrafn): register the browser-fetch service and tighten its env perms

nevermore-claude handed hrafn to infra-ops for uptime ownership. Intake:
verified health independently, brought it into the inventory, and fixed one
security defect found during the check.

- canonicalize stacks/hrafn/ (compose.yaml + .env.example + README)
- list hrafn in the ana-docker running-stacks table
- README records the load-bearing bits: shm_size 1gb is required for
  Chromium, playwright and the base image are version-coupled, SSRF denies
  private targets by default, and restart:unless-stopped does NOT act on
  healthcheck failure

Security fix applied on the host, not in this tree: /opt/docker/compose/
hrafn/.env was 0644 with a live 57-char bearer token in it, readable by
every local account (verified by reading it as `nobody`). Tightened to 0600;
owner unchanged so the deploy path still works, confirmed via `docker
compose config` as lkraven. Container untouched and still healthy.

Known gaps recorded rather than silently accepted: no CI deploy, and the
image builds from an rsync'd working tree living in the compose directory,
so the running image has no commit provenance.

# hrafn
Browser-fetch service — a genuine Chromium kept behind a REST API so consumers
never have to embed a browser themselves. It exists because bot-gated sites
(Reddit first) 403 every non-browser client; hrafn is the one place in the fleet
that keeps a real browser warm.
**Deploys to:**
- **ana-docker** (10.250.50.70) — internal-only, no published host port.
Consumers reach it at `http://hrafn:8080` on `traefik-net`.
Built and handed to infra-ops for uptime ownership by nevermore-claude,
2026-08-22. Upstream source: `vh/hrafn` (private gitea repo).
## Reaching it
There is **no host port** — this is deliberate (contract § Deployment). Only
containers on `traefik-net` can talk to it:
```bash
# from another container on traefik-net
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $HRAFN_TOKEN" \
-X POST http://hrafn:8080/v1/fetch -d '{"url":"https://example.com"}'
# from the host, for diagnostics only
ssh infra-ops@10.250.50.70 \
'sudo docker run --rm --network traefik-net curlimages/curl:latest \
-s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n" http://hrafn:8080/readyz'
```
`/readyz` and the other health endpoints are unauthenticated; `POST /v1/fetch`
requires the bearer token.
## Credentials
`HRAFN_TOKEN` lives in `/opt/docker/compose/hrafn/.env` on the host and is
vaulted at `ana-docker/hrafn/bearer-token` (secrets-broker). The `.env` is
**0600** — it was 0644 on handoff, which exposed a live bearer token to every
local account on the box; tightened 2026-08-22. Keep it 0600.
## Operational notes
- **`shm_size: 1gb` is load-bearing.** Chromium crashes on some pages with
Docker's 64 MB default. Don't trim it to save memory.
- **Playwright and the base image are version-coupled.** Base is
`mcr.microsoft.com/playwright/python:v1.62.0-noble` with playwright pinned to
`1.62.0`. Bump both together or the browser binary and the client library
disagree.
- **SSRF is denied by default** — private and reserved targets are refused
unless listed in `HRAFN_PRIVATE_ALLOWLIST`, which is empty. Leave it empty
unless there is a specific internal target and a reason.
- **`restart: unless-stopped` does not act on the healthcheck.** Docker restarts
on *exit*, not on *unhealthy*. A wedged-but-running Chromium will sit there
marked unhealthy indefinitely. Beszel on this host reports container status,
so that is the alerting path.
## Deploy
**No CI deploy is wired.** As of the handoff the image builds from a working
tree rsync'd into the compose directory, so `/opt/docker/compose/hrafn/`
contains the full source (`src/`, `tests/`, `pyproject.toml`, …) rather than
just a compose file. That is a deviation from the house convention and means
the running image has no commit provenance.
Current update path:
```bash
ssh infra-ops@10.250.50.70
cd /opt/docker/compose/hrafn
# rsync the updated working tree in, then:
sudo docker compose build && sudo docker compose up -d
sudo docker compose ps # expect (healthy)
```
## Known gaps
| gap | impact | status |
|---|---|---|
| No CI deploy | manual rsync + build; no provenance for what is running | offered by nevermore-claude, not yet built |
| Source tree in the compose dir | deviates from `/opt/docker/compose/<stack>/compose.yaml` convention | needs a host-clone or registry-image deploy shape |
| No homepage entry | internal-only service, so arguably correct | intentional for now |
