Frank e3eb5334cb feat: initialize serverAppConfigs with podman stacks for Dankserver and Dankclaw

- Dankserver stack: RomM, Copyparty, Calibre-Web, node-exporter
- Dankclaw stack: Gluetun VPN (SearXNG tunnel), SearXNG+Valkey, ComfyUI
  (CPU backend), OpenWebUI, Hermes, Gitea+Postgres (migrated), Caddy
  reverse proxy, Grafana+Prometheus+Loki+Alloy observability
- Caddyfiles with .local hostname convention and basicauth homepage
- bind-mount storage policy, no named volumes
- deploy.sh mirroring vllmScripts git workflow (push -> pull -> restart -> health)
- docs/ Obsidian vault: per-service docs from frank-default-small research
  subagents (promtail EOL -> Alloy; gitea SECRET_KEY preservation; ComfyUI --cpu)
- bats test suite at 6 seams — 22 tests green

RomM

RomM (ROM Manager) is a self-hosted rom manager and player for retro game collections. It scans a ROM library, enriches it with metadata and cover art, and serves it through a clean web UI.

Host: Dankserver — Hostname: romm.dankserver.local — Docs: https://docs.romm.app

Facts (from research)

Item	Value
Image	`ghcr.io/rommapp/romm:latest`
Port	8085 (host) → 8080 (container)
Data volume	config, cache, covers, metadata DB
ROMs volume	bind mount to the game library
Frontend	React; backend FastAPI/Node
Metadata	Screenscraper, IGDB, MobyGames, RAHasher (optional)

Configuration

Set ROMM_USERNAME, ROMM_PASSWORD, ROMM_SECRET_KEY on first boot (creates the admin user).
DISABLE_AUTH: true disables authentication for LAN-only deployments (not recommended behind Caddy auth).
Bind-mount the ROM library read-only unless RomM should also manage folder structure.
Metadata providers need API keys; set them in the RomM admin UI after first login.

Volumes

Container path	Host path (convention)
`/romm/library`	`/opt/romm/library`
`/romm/resources`	`/opt/romm/resources`

Healthcheck

Expose a /health endpoint; RomM serves the UI on /.

Gotchas

The first login sets the admin password; do not rely on the env credentials after that.
Database is SQLite by default — back it up with the resources volume.
RAHasher build increases image build time; skip unless RetroAchievements hashes are needed.
