- Updated entrypoint.sh to initialize the on-disk config only if it does not already exist, preserving user edits across restarts.
- Enhanced privilege dropping logic to ensure the container does not run as root if the privilege drop fails.
- Clarified comments in Dockerfile and entrypoint.sh for better understanding of the privilege management process.
- Updated README.md to include a note about persistent disks requiring a paid service on Render.
- Adjusted render.yaml to clarify the Docker command behavior and added a note regarding auto-deploy settings.
Adds a Render Blueprint (render.yaml) and supporting pieces so nanobot can
be deployed to Render in one click, with persistent memory across deploys.
- render.yaml: web service + 1GB persistent disk mounted at
/home/nanobot/.nanobot. Prompts for ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and
NANOBOT_WEB_TOKEN at deploy time (sync: false).
- render-config.json: committed gateway config that wires secrets via
${VAR} placeholders (resolved at runtime). Nothing secret is committed.
- entrypoint.sh: adds a branch gated on RENDER=true that copies the config
onto the mounted disk, chowns the root-owned mount, and drops to the
non-root nanobot user via setpriv. Local (non-Render) path is unchanged.
- Dockerfile: COPY render-config.json; USER nanobot -> USER root so the
entrypoint can chown the freshly-mounted disk before dropping privileges;
add PYTHONUNBUFFERED/PYTHONFAULTHANDLER for diagnosable crash output.
- README.md: Deploy to Render button + section.
