When adding a new container/VM/service, use this prompt with an LLM to generate a first draft of notes (similar style to the rest of this repo):
> You are helping me maintain my homelab-notes repo.
> I am adding or modifying ONE service/container/VM.
> You are helping me maintain my homelab-notes repo.
> I am adding or modifying ONE service/container/VM.
> Read the snippets I paste from my terminal (docker-compose, configs, IPs, curl outputs, etc.) and then produce a single Markdown file in the same style as other *-notes.md in this repo:
>
> - Start with a short description of what the service is and where it runs.
> - Capture design/architecture decisions (networking, reverse proxy, storage, security).
> - Document IPs, hostnames, ports, container names, and paths that are specific to my environment.
> - Include trimmed config examples (docker-compose, Caddy/nginx, app config) with comments where helpful.
> - Add a small “Deployment steps” section summarizing the exact commands I used (cd, docker compose up, systemctl, etc.).
> - Add brief “Troubleshooting notes” if we fixed any issues (e.g., wrong port binding, DNS, reverse proxy issues).
