 6. Enable tool containers (`--profile tools`) once images verified (plan §4).
 
+## Deployment checklist (further)
+1. ✅ Core stack up on `.13` (portal/postgres/redis/rabbitmq/garage/worker); console URL live.
+2. ✅ Garage buckets + portal access key provisioned (note: S3 name rules ⇒ `jo` used as `jo-media`).
+3. ✅ Caddy `console` rule applied + reloaded on `.35`; cert obtained.
+4. ⏳ Add `/mnt/data/family-home-lab/` to `.13` `backup.nix` (`services.borgbackup.jobs."local-to-storage".paths`) — needs sudo, then `sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake . --impure`.
+5. ⏳ Enable tool containers (`--profile tools`) once images verified (plan §4); add their Caddy blocks one-by-one.
