- alpine's /bin/busybox is musl-dynamic and cannot execute in the
distroless loki image (missing loader); busybox-static links in
- alloy 1.x refuses to configure the ui service from a config block;
the default UI already listens on 127.0.0.1:12345 where the
healthcheck probes
- alloy 1.x renamed the server component to ui; the old block failed the
initial load and the container crash-looped
- grafana/loki is distroless and grafana/alloy lacks wget, so their
healthchecks could never run; local images add a static busybox from
alpine for that one command
- deploy.sh builds all three local images if missing
- tests: 3 new seams
