apply created applications but dropped install_command, build_command, and
is_static — settings the manifest had no field for — so a static site in an
npm-workspace monorepo (landing) was built and RUN from the repo-root
package.json, booting the core API server, which crash-looped on a missing
DATABASE_URL.
The build block gains install_command / build_command / start_command
(free-form strings) and static (-> Coolify is_static). apply writes and diffs
them; draft emits them (they left its NO_HOME list, and is_static was never in
it — the silent loss that caused the crash), and only emits static alongside a
publish_directory so a draft always loads.
Managing is_static is opt-in: declaring `static:` is required to serve a static
app, and NOT emitting is_static by default avoids the first apply PATCHing
static serving OFF on an un-migrated app (or fighting a pack:static coupling
forever). static:true with no publish_directory, and any of the four on a
dockercompose app, are parse-time refusals.

Coolify 4.1.2 validates every checkout-relative path on create and 422s
anything without a leading slash: `docker_compose_location` against
ValidationPatterns::FILE_PATH_PATTERN, `base_directory`/`publish_directory`
against DIRECTORY_PATH_PATTERN. cast passed all three through verbatim and
validated nothing about their shape — and docs/semantics.md taught the exact
value Coolify rejects (`compose_file: docker-compose.yaml`).
The 422 is a property of the manifest, not of the instance, so it is knowable
before a single API call. Refine at parse time, on every verb: a refusal that
names the fix, not a silent normalization — the manifest is the artifact under
review, so a bad value is fixed in the file, once.
Fixes the docs example and the fixtures that carried the broken value.

Coolify API tokens are team-scoped, and a wrong-team token does not error:
the API resolves what it cannot see to `null` (getResourceByUuid walks
resource → environment → project → team_id and returns null on a mismatch).
To cast, `null` is indistinguishable from "this resource does not exist
yet" — an invitation to create it. So an apply with a token minted under the
wrong team would not fail loudly; it would provision a duplicate set of
resources into the wrong team, against whatever server that team owns.
Silent, mutating, discovered late. That makes this a correctness bug, not
hardening.
- environments.yaml carries a required `team:` per environment (id, name, or
both). Required is the point: an environment with no declared team is one
cast cannot verify it is pointed at.
- Every command that reaches a live Coolify (apply, diff, server add, smoke)
resolves GET /teams/current — the only endpoint that answers "what team
does this token act as?" — and aborts on mismatch before its first READ,
not merely its first write: a wrong-team diff reports "everything is
absent", which is the very lie an apply would then act on.
- server add and smoke take --env for this reason. A server belongs to
exactly one team forever (no pivot, no is_system_wide escape hatch), and
smoke writes env vars onto a live app.
- New read-only `cast team` prints the token's team, so the binding can be
filled in without a chicken-and-egg. With --env it also checks the
binding: the dry run for "would apply refuse?".
Team id 0 is a first-class value, not a falsy absent — it is the Root Team
that a single-admin instance keeps everything in (app/Models/User.php).
Also records the #4 investigation in docs/semantics.md: GithubApp
`is_system_wide` IS the supported way to serve every team — list_github_apps
scopes to `team_id = token's team OR is_system_wide`, and POST /github-apps
accepts the flag — so per-team App duplication is unnecessary. Corollary:
resolving a GitHub App by name is NOT a proxy for being in the right team,
which is the second reason the assert has to be explicit.

Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.
