jwinterm d96f457b69 docs(examples): operator cookbook — six deployment recipes + premium-relay spec
Add ready-to-run .env + README recipes (personal, public-free, friends,
paid-access, paid-relay, community) and the premium-relay design overview,
with audit fixes to the config template and spec:

- Drop the inert INSTANCE_ID knob (config never read it) and document the real
  per-node id, which is derived from ADMIN_PUBLIC_URL.
- Warn that a placeholder PUBLIC_API_URL is rejected at boot in production
  (Nostr identity is on by default); soften the recipe "boots today" status.
- Remove dead template vars: BTC/LTC Core-RPC settings and the non-existent
  PUBLIC_EXPOSE_FEATURES (replaced with the real per-field landing switches).
- Mark ALTCHA_HMAC_KEY conditional in PoW-off recipes; blank placeholder
  payment creds so a recipe doesn't ship a key that fails validation.
- Fix premium-relay spec drift: the migration creates no premium_until index,
  disabled endpoints return 400/200 (not 404), and neutralize operator voice.

personal — your own sovereign backend

Run the backend for yourself alone: no registration gates, unlimited restore, the relay optional. The smallest footprint; you are the only user.

  • Config: .env.example — all gates off, WALLET_RESTORE_POLICY=unlimited, relay off.
  • Boot: copy .env.example → .env, generate the secrets (openssl rand -hex 32), fill your chain endpoints, run the binary (migrations apply on boot). Bind the API to 127.0.0.1 behind your own TLS.
  • Non-custodial: the backend never sees your seed or spend keys — funds stay on-chain.
