Frank 5829a0bfe8 docs: rename docs/ -> serverAppConfigs-docs/ per system-wide PROJECTNAME-docs convention
All in-repo path references (AGENTS.md, README, old scripts, report artifacts,
test code paths) rewritten in the same commit; focused-test map extended for
.gitignore, old/scripts/*, dankclaw/comfyui/*, and report/* per this repo's
own convention ('add one before committing'). Obsidian wikilinks are
title-based and unaffected.

Gotchas

  • Prowlarr database grows with indexer data. Set up periodic vacuum/backup.
  • Indexer sync has a 15–60 minute delay. Search results may lag.
  • Rotate API key: update it in every arr app.
