Replica counts could be changed, but nginx only proxied to one port
and the auto-scale sweep was never scheduled, so neither the
Auto-scale section nor its five routes could work; the nginx
upstream builder had no UI at all. With one live copy per app they
are gone, and the scale-policy table is dropped. Running containers
are not touched. The scaling spec now says replicas are not
pursued.
Pin the Compose template's full-tree wordpress_html named volume as the
supported same-host shared-state contract (uploads, plugins, themes, disk
page cache), and make WordPress vhost publishing install shared
wp-login.php/xmlrpc.php limit_req zones keyed by server name + client IP.
Generic Docker vhosts are unaffected; drift repair regenerates existing
WordPress vhosts with the policy. Spec and roadmap rows move from Partial
to Shipped with their real-host boundaries recorded.
#34 is infra-blocked and unverifiable on the Windows dev host, so spec it
rather than build it blind. A capability sweep found the load-balancing,
rate-limit, proxy-cache, per-vhost-log, wildcard-TLS, and S3-upload primitives
already exist (nginx_advanced_service / nginx_service / advanced_ssl_service /
storage_provider_service) — so #34 is wiring + a public base-domain + stateless
WP, not greenfield nginx.
Adds docs/HORIZONTAL_SCALING_SPEC.md: a shared keystone (K0-K4) that also
unblocks #21/#15-TLS/#8/#30-jail/#25, then #34 proper (H0-H4), each phase a
separately verifiable PR with a Windows-vs-real-host split. Links it from the
roadmap #34 entry.
