Boden 65c9fb2206 feat(scrape): operator proof script and podman-compose smoke fix
Add run-operator-proof for one-target handoff/scrape/prove flows.
Prefer podman-compose on Podman hosts but honor DCE_DOCKER_BIN overrides
so offline smokes keep using fake compose shims.

# Recurring scrape — merge readiness
Fork branch `feat/recurring-cli-scrape` adds append-only, Docker-based incremental exports with optional monthly cron. Intended for personal archive trees under a configurable `archive_root` (for example `~/Documents/*`).
GUI zip users: [docs/gui-zip-recurring-scrape-bridge.md](gui-zip-recurring-scrape-bridge.md).
## What ships
- **Config:** `config/scrape-targets.json` — per-server `output_dir`, optional `channel_ids`, `enabled` flags
- **Core:** `scripts/run-discord-scrape.sh` — incremental `--after`, merge-by-id, fail-closed path safety
- **Host:** `scripts/run-discord-scrape-host.sh`, `scripts/run-documents-scrape.sh`, `scripts/bootstrap-recurring-scrape.sh`
- **Auth:** `scrape.env`, `scripts/setup-scrape-auth.sh`, `scripts/sync-token-from-gui.sh`
- **Cron:** `scripts/setup-cron.sh` (`--interval monthly` default)
- **Integrity:** `scripts/audit-archive-json.sh`, `scripts/salvage-truncated-export.sh`, `scripts/prove-incremental-append.sh`
- **CI:** `.github/workflows/main.yml` job `recurring-scrape-smoke` runs `./scripts/run-all-smokes.sh`
## Validate before merge
```bash
./scripts/run-all-smokes.sh
./scripts/run-all-smokes.sh --include-container # optional; needs Docker/Podman
```
## Operator quick path
```bash
./scripts/operator-handoff.sh # disk + verify + archive dry-run
./scripts/verify-operator-ready.sh
cp scrape.env.example scrape.env # or ./scripts/sync-token-from-gui.sh --force
./scripts/bootstrap-recurring-scrape.sh
./scripts/run-documents-scrape.sh
./scripts/setup-cron.sh --dry-run
```
Optional Discord probe for one target:
```bash
./scripts/verify-operator-ready.sh --preflight KotOR_discord_msgs
```
Single-target live proof (handoff → scrape → grow-only check):
```bash
./scripts/run-operator-proof.sh --sync-gui --target eod_discord
./scripts/run-operator-proof.sh --dry-run # handoff only
```
Full validation with log (GUI token sync + scrape + audit):
```bash
./scripts/run-operator-validation.sh --sync-gui
./scripts/run-operator-validation.sh --sync-gui --target eod_discord
./scripts/run-operator-validation.sh --sync-gui --per-target --continue-on-error
./scripts/run-operator-validation.sh --dry-run
```

## Disk space
Incremental merges need temporary space (often 2× the largest channel JSON). Before scraping:
```bash
df -h ~/Documents /home/brunner56/Downloads/DiscordChatExporter
./scripts/verify-operator-ready.sh # fails below 1 GiB free by default
```
Override threshold: `DCE_MIN_FREE_MB=2048 ./scripts/verify-operator-ready.sh`
Skip check (smokes only): `DCE_MIN_FREE_MB=0`
Also enforced by `run-documents-scrape.sh`, `run-discord-scrape-host.sh` (cron), and `run-operator-validation.sh`.
**Podman hosts:** install `podman-compose` (`dnf install podman-compose`) when `docker compose` cannot reach the socket; scripts auto-prefer `podman-compose` when present.
## CI note (fork PRs)
Upstream workflows may show `action_required` for cross-repo PRs from `th3w1zard1/DiscordChatExporter` until a maintainer approves workflow runs. Local `run-all-smokes.sh` is the authoritative offline gate.
