Update: Release Readiness, Easier Install, CI Hardening, and OpsReader MCP Work

Since the initial prototype, we focused on making OpsRadar easier to review, install, and extend beyond the demo.

What we added

1. Easier Docker Compose installation

We added clearer setup documentation so reviewers and operators can run OpsRadar locally with Docker Compose.

New docs include:

  • quick local install steps
  • required .env setup
  • Docker Compose startup commands
  • troubleshooting notes
  • demo/sample-data guidance
  • production-shaped deployment notes

The goal is to make the project easier to try without guessing how the stack should run.

2. First-user super admin bootstrap

OpsRadar now documents and tests the first-run admin flow:

On a fresh deployment, the first user who signs up becomes the instance admin.

This matters because self-hosted internal tools need a simple bootstrap path. The first operator can start the instance, configure roles, invite users, and manage the setup without requiring manual database changes.

3. GHCR Docker image publishing

We added GitHub Container Registry publishing support for backend and frontend Docker images.

Expected image names:

ghcr.io/absolute-martial/ops-radar-backend
ghcr.io/absolute-martial/ops-radar-frontend
