refactor: remove deploy.cmd and update Dockerfile for health checks

- Deleted the deploy.cmd script as it was no longer needed. - Updated Dockerfile to include curl for health checks and added a non-root user for improved security. - Modified health check command to use curl for better reliability. - Adjusted docker-compose.test.yml to reflect changes in health check configuration. - Cleaned up appsettings.json and removed unused configuration properties. - Removed Resource entity and related requests from the codebase as part of the architectural shift. - Updated documentation to reflect the removal of hardware binding and related endpoints.

 **Known limitations**:
 - No pagination on `GetUsers` — returns all matching users.
- `CheckHardwareHash` auto-stores hardware on first access (no explicit admin approval step).
 - `RemoveUser` is a hard delete, not soft delete.
+- `RegisterDevice` returns the plaintext password to the caller exactly once; if the provisioning script loses it, the device must be re-registered.
+- The `User.Hardware` column is left in place but unused (AZ-197 chose to leave the column nullable rather than ship a migration).

 **Potential race conditions**:
 - Concurrent `RegisterUser` calls with the same email: both could pass the existence check before insert. Mitigated by database unique constraint on email (if one exists).
- `CheckHardwareHash` first-login path: concurrent requests could trigger multiple hardware updates.
+- Concurrent `RegisterDevice` calls: both could read the same "most recent CompanionPC" row and try to claim the same `azj-NNNN` serial. Mitigated by the `users.email` unique constraint — the loser will fail the insert. (Out of cycle-1 scope: a sequence-based serial allocator would eliminate the retry.)

 **Performance bottlenecks**:
 - `GetUsers` loads full user objects including `UserConfig` JSON; for large user bases, projection would be more efficient.

+Static utility class providing cryptographic operations: password hashing, encryption key derivation, and AES-CBC stream encryption/decryption.
+
+> **Cycle 1 (2026-05-13) note** — `GetHWHash` was deleted and `GetApiEncryptionKey` was simplified from `(email, password, hardwareHash)` to `(email, password)` by AZ-197 (admin-side hardware-binding cleanup). The hardware-hash component of the derived key is gone; existing ciphertexts produced under the old derivation are no longer re-derivable from the new signature. See `_docs/03_implementation/batch_06_report.md`.

 # Module: Azaion.Services.UserService

 ## Purpose
-Core business logic for user management: registration, authentication, hardware binding, role management, and account lifecycle.
+Core business logic for user management: registration (web users + provisioned devices), authentication, role management, and account lifecycle.
+
+> **Cycle 1 (2026-05-13) note** — hardware-binding methods (`UpdateHardware`, `CheckHardwareHash`, private `UpdateLastLoginDate`) and the bound `IUserService` declarations were removed by AZ-197 (admin-side hardware-binding cleanup). Device auto-provisioning (`RegisterDevice`) was added by AZ-196. **Post-cycle-1 (security audit F-3)**: `RegisterDevice` was refactored to delegate the row insert to `RegisterUser`, and `RegisterUser` itself now relies on the new `users_email_uidx` UNIQUE INDEX (`env/db/06_users_email_unique.sql`) — the check-then-insert race is gone; `Npgsql.PostgresException(SqlState=23505)` is translated to `BusinessException(EmailExists)`.

 ## Internal Logic
- **RegisterUser**: checks for duplicate email, hashes password via `Security.ToHash`, inserts via `RunAdmin`.
- **ValidateUser**: finds user by email, compares password hash. Throws `NoEmailFound` or `WrongPassword`.
+- **RegisterUser**: hashes password via `Security.ToHash`, inserts via `RunAdmin`. Catches `Npgsql.PostgresException` with `SqlState == PostgresErrorCodes.UniqueViolation` (23505) on the `users_email_uidx` UNIQUE INDEX and rethrows as `BusinessException(EmailExists)`. The previous check-then-insert pattern was removed (race-prone before the index existed; redundant after).
+- **RegisterDevice**: calls private `NextDeviceIdentity` (read-only) to compute the next `azj-NNNN` serial + matching email, generates a 32-char hex password from `RandomNumberGenerator.GetBytes(16)`, then delegates the row insert to `RegisterUser` (so any future change to user-creation policy applies here too). Returns `{Serial, Email, Password}` (plaintext password exposed exactly once at provisioning time). On a serial-allocation race, the second caller's insert hits the UNIQUE INDEX and surfaces `BusinessException(EmailExists)`; the caller can retry.
+- **NextDeviceIdentity** (private): queries the most recent `RoleEnum.CompanionPC` user via `dbFactory.Run` (read connection), parses the `azj-NNNN` suffix (chars `[SerialNumberStart, SerialNumberLength)` of the email, constants on the class), increments by 1, returns `(serial, email)`.
+- **ValidateUser**: finds user by email, compares password hash. Throws `NoEmailFound`, `WrongPassword`, or `UserDisabled`.
 - **GetByEmail**: uses `ICache.GetFromCacheAsync` with key `User.{email}`.
- **CheckHardwareHash**: on first access (null hardware), stores the raw hardware string and returns the hash. On subsequent access, compares hashes. Throws `HardwareIdMismatch` on mismatch. Also updates `LastLogin` timestamp.
- **UpdateHardware/UpdateQueueOffsets**: use `RunAdmin` for writes, then invalidate cache.
+- **UpdateQueueOffsets**: writes via `RunAdmin`, then invalidates the user cache.
 - **GetUsers**: uses `WhereIf` for optional filter predicates.

-Private method:
- `UpdateLastLoginDate` — updates `LastLogin` to `DateTime.UtcNow`.

+# Ripple Log — Cycle 1 (2026-05-13)
+
+Documentation refresh triggered by the cycle 1 task set: AZ-513, AZ-196, AZ-183, AZ-197.
+
+> **Post-cycle-1 update (same day, 2026-05-13)** — after the security audit (autodev Step 14) AZ-183 (OTA update check & publish) was reverted in full and a F-3 hardening pass was applied to `RegisterUser`/`RegisterDevice`. See "Post-cycle-1 revert (security audit follow-up)" at the bottom of this log for the doc deltas.
+
+This log records every doc that was refreshed (directly or via the import-graph ripple from another changed file) during autodev Step 13 (Update Docs) — `document` skill in **Task mode**.
+
+## Method
+
+Per `.cursor/skills/document/workflows/task.md` Step 0.5, for each changed source file the consuming files were located via `using` references inside `Azaion.AdminApi/`, `Azaion.Services/`, `Azaion.Common/`, `Azaion.Test/`, and `e2e/Azaion.E2E/`. Each consumer that lives in an already-documented module triggered a doc refresh.
+
+For C#, the import surface walked was `using Azaion.{Common,Services}*;` plus `ProjectReference` declarations in the four production csprojs (`Azaion.AdminApi`, `Azaion.Services`, `Azaion.Common`, `Azaion.Test`, `e2e/Azaion.E2E`).
+
+## Direct refreshes (changed source file → existing module doc)
+
+| Module Doc | Trigger |
+|------------|---------|
+| `modules/services_user_service.md` | `Azaion.Services/UserService.cs` — AZ-196 added `RegisterDevice`; AZ-197 removed `UpdateHardware`, `CheckHardwareHash`, `UpdateLastLoginDate`. |
+| `modules/services_security.md` | `Azaion.Services/Security.cs` — AZ-197 removed `GetHWHash`; `GetApiEncryptionKey` signature simplified. |
+| `modules/services_resources_service.md` | `Azaion.Services/ResourcesService.cs` — caller-side hardware path gone (security note rewrite). |
+| `modules/common_requests_get_resource.md` | `Azaion.Common/Requests/GetResourceRequest.cs` — AZ-197 removed `Hardware` field; `CheckResourceRequest` removed. |

+| `modules/common_requests_set_hw.md` | **Deleted** — `Azaion.Common/Requests/SetHWRequest.cs` no longer exists. |
+

+
+| Component Doc | Reason |
+|---------------|--------|

+| `components/02_user_management/description.md` | `RegisterDevice` added to interface table; `CheckHardwareHash` / `UpdateHardware` removed from interface table; `SetHWRequest` removed; cache invalidation table simplified. |
+| `components/03_auth_and_security/description.md` | `Security.GetApiEncryptionKey` signature simplified; `GetHWHash` removed. |
+| `components/04_resource_management/description.md` | `IResourceUpdateService` added (AZ-183) with separate DB + cache + at-rest column encryption; `GetResourceRequest` no longer carries `Hardware`; `CheckResourceRequest` removed. |

+| `architecture.md` | Data Model Overview lists the new `DetectionClass` and `Resource` entities; the `User` entity caption notes the CompanionPC subset auto-provisioned via AZ-196; ExceptionEnum caption notes HW-related codes are gone. The `Note (AZ-197)` block at the top was already in place pre-Step-13. |
+| `module-layout.md` | Conceptual Sub-Components table updated: cycle-1-added files annotated; `SetHWRequest` removal noted; new sub-component `4b Detection Classes` added. |
+| `diagrams/flows/flow_hardware_check.md` | Already converted to a tombstone during AZ-197 implementation; no further action this cycle. |
+
+## Tooling notes
+
+- C# import resolution was performed by `Grep` on `using Azaion.*` patterns plus by reading the `.csproj` `ProjectReference` set, since the workspace has no `madge`/`depcruise`-equivalent statically available. Any consumer in `Azaion.AdminApi/Program.cs` was treated as a "system entry point" consumer (Program.cs is the composition root + endpoint table — a single file that legitimately consumes everything).
+- Tests under `Azaion.Test/` and `e2e/Azaion.E2E/` were considered downstream consumers of `Azaion.Services` and `Azaion.Common`. Their files were NOT promoted into the doc tree (per `module-layout.md` Layout Rules — tests are not public API surface), but their AC coverage was reflected in module-doc "Tests" sections and in `tests/blackbox-tests.md` / `tests/traceability-matrix.md` (autodev Step 12).
+
+## No-op observations
+
+- Other module docs in `_docs/02_document/modules/` (e.g., `common_entities_user.md`, `common_database_*.md`, `common_extensions_*.md`, `services_auth_service.md`, `services_cache.md`, `admin_api_business_exception_handler.md`, `common_requests_login_request.md`, `common_requests_register_user.md`, `common_requests_set_queue_offsets.md`, `common_configs_*.md`) were inspected and found to be unaffected by cycle 1 changes — no refresh needed.
+- `_docs/00_problem/acceptance_criteria.md` and `_docs/00_problem/restrictions.md` were intentionally NOT modified — Task-mode Step 4 only updates problem-level docs when the task changed input parameters or the AC catalogue. Cycle 1 added new behaviours but the baseline AC numbering (AC-1..AC-28) is preserved per `cycle-update` rules; new AC sets live under their tracker IDs in `tests/traceability-matrix.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Post-cycle-1 revert (security audit follow-up, 2026-05-13)
+
+After autodev Step 14 (Security Audit) finished with verdict **FAIL** (3 open Highs: F-1, F-2, F-3), the user instructed:
+
+> "fix findings right now F-1 get-update is again leftover from the shipping resources era, when we delivered software as an installer. We don't need now IResourceUpdateService.

 ## Flow F3: Encrypted Resource Download

+> **Updated by AZ-197 (2026-05-13)** — the hardware-binding precondition and the `CheckHardwareHash` / `GetHWHash` steps were removed; the encryption key is now derived from `email + password` only. The diagram below reflects the post-cycle-1 path.
+
 ### Description
-An authenticated user requests a resource file. The system validates hardware binding, derives a per-user encryption key, encrypts the file with AES-256-CBC, and streams the encrypted content.

+## Cycle 1 Additions (2026-05-13)
+
+The scenarios below were appended during the existing-code cycle 1 Test-Spec Sync (autodev Step 12) for tasks AZ-513, AZ-196, AZ-183, AZ-197. Numbering continues from the legacy IDs above; existing IDs are preserved.
+
+### Cycle 1 Obsoletion Note
+
+The following legacy entries describe behaviour removed by AZ-197 (admin-side hardware-binding cleanup). Their bodies are intentionally left intact to preserve traceability IDs per the cycle-update rule "preserve existing traceability IDs"; they should be treated as obsolete and superseded by FT-N-15 below:
+
+- FT-P-04 (First Hardware Check Stores Fingerprint) — superseded; the `POST /resources/check` endpoint and the hardware-store side-effect were removed.
+- FT-P-05 (Subsequent Hardware Check Matches) — superseded; same endpoint removed.
+- FT-N-06 (Hardware Mismatch) — superseded; the `HardwareIdMismatch` / error code 40 path no longer exists in `ExceptionEnum`.
+- FT-P-09 / FT-P-10 wire shape — the `hardware` field on `POST /resources/get/{dataFolder}` is no longer required; the encryption key is now derived from `email + password` only. The tests still pass without the field; do not regenerate spec bodies until a full `/test-spec` rerun.
+
+See `_docs/03_implementation/batch_06_report.md` for the full AZ-197 implementation rationale and the wire-compat policy decision (drop entirely).

+The scenarios `FT-P-21`, `FT-P-22`, `FT-P-23` are retained here as ID placeholders so previously-cited references resolve. Their bodies are intentionally collapsed because the underlying endpoints, service, entity, table, and the e2e test class `ResourceUpdateTests.cs` were all removed. See `_docs/02_document/system-flows.md` (Flow F10) and `_docs/05_security/security_report.md` (finding F-1) for context.

-**Summary**: User list endpoint responds within limits when DB has many users.
-**Traces to**: AC-9
-**Metric**: Response time
+**Summary**: `GET /users` responds within limits when DB has many users.
+**Traces to**: AC-11
+
+> **Note**: this scenario originally referenced AC-9. Post-cycle-1, AC-9 is "Registration rejects duplicate email". The user-listing criterion is AC-11 (filter support). The thresholds below verify the listing path under volume; the filter semantics are covered by functional tests.
+
+**Metric**: Response time (p95)

 **Preconditions**:
- 500 users in database
- Caller is ApiAdmin
+- Database seeded with 500 users (perf seed inserts dummy rows alongside the functional seed; see `scripts/run-performance-tests.sh`)
+- Caller is `admin@azaion.com` (ApiAdmin)

 **Steps**:

 | Step | Consumer Action | Measurement |
 |------|----------------|-------------|
-| 1 | Send 50 GET /users requests (10 concurrent) | Measure p50, p95 response times |
+| 1 | 10 VUs send GET /users for 30s, sharing one cached JWT | Measure p50, p95, p99 response times |

 **Pass criteria**: p95 latency < 1000ms
 **Duration**: 30 seconds
+
+---
+
+## Runner
+
+Both scenarios are implemented in `scripts/perf-scenarios.js` (k6, JS) and orchestrated by `scripts/run-performance-tests.sh`. The runner spins up the SUT via `docker-compose.test.yml`, seeds 500 perf users into `test-db`, executes k6, captures the JSON summary to `e2e/test-results/perf-summary.json`, and tears down.
+
+To run locally: `./scripts/run-performance-tests.sh`. Requires `k6` (`brew install k6`) and Docker.

+## Cycle 1 Additions (2026-05-13) — AZ-513, AZ-196, AZ-183, AZ-197
+
+Appended during the existing-code cycle 1 Test-Spec Sync (autodev Step 12). Cycle 1 ACs are namespaced by their tracker ID to avoid colliding with the baseline AC-1..AC-19 numbering above.
+
+### AZ-513 — Detection Classes CRUD
+
+| AC ID | Acceptance Criterion | Test IDs | Coverage |
+|-------|---------------------|----------|----------|
+| AZ-513 AC-1 | POST /classes creates a class | FT-P-14 | Covered |
+| AZ-513 AC-2 | POST /classes requires ApiAdmin authorization | FT-N-09 | Covered |
+| AZ-513 AC-3 | PATCH /classes/{id} updates an existing class (full body) | FT-P-15 | Covered |
+| AZ-513 AC-4 | PATCH /classes/{id} accepts partial body (partial-merge) | FT-P-16 | Covered |
+| AZ-513 AC-5 | PATCH /classes/{id} returns 404 for unknown id | FT-N-10 | Covered |
+| AZ-513 AC-6 | PATCH /classes/{id} requires ApiAdmin authorization | FT-N-11 | Covered |
+| AZ-513 AC-7 | DELETE /classes/{id} removes a class | FT-P-17 | Covered |
+| AZ-513 AC-8 | DELETE /classes/{id} returns 404 for unknown id | FT-N-12 | Covered |

+
+### AZ-183 — Resources OTA Update Check (REVERTED post-cycle-1)
+
+The OTA Update Check & Publish feature shipped in cycle 1 was reverted later the same day after the security audit (finding F-1: `/get-update` disclosed plaintext per-resource encryption keys to any authenticated caller; the OTA delivery model itself was deemed obsolete in the target architecture). The endpoints, service, entity, table, request DTOs, response DTO, cache key, master-key config field, and the e2e test class `ResourceUpdateTests` were all removed.
+
+| AC ID | Acceptance Criterion | Test IDs | Status |
+|-------|---------------------|----------|--------|
+| AZ-183 AC-1 | Resources table created with required columns | — | **Reverted** — table dropped from migration set (`env/db/05_resources.sql` deleted) |
+| AZ-183 AC-2 | POST /get-update returns newer resources | ~~FT-P-21~~ | **Reverted** — endpoint and test deleted |
+| AZ-183 AC-3 | POST /get-update returns empty when device already current | ~~FT-P-22~~ | **Reverted** — endpoint and test deleted |
+| AZ-183 AC-4 | Memory cache avoids DB pressure under 2000-device polling | — | **Reverted** — cache key removed |

+| AZ-197 AC-2 | `PUT /users/hardware/set` and `POST /resources/check` return 404 | FT-N-15 | Covered |
+| AZ-197 AC-3 | `Security.GetApiEncryptionKey` signature simplified to (email, password) | — | Internal signature — covered by `Azaion.Test/SecurityTest` unit tests, not blackbox |
+| AZ-197 AC-4 | `HardwareBindingTests` removed; no remaining test asserts code 40 / hardware-hash binding | — | Build/CI invariant — verified by test-suite enumeration |
+| AZ-197 AC-5 | Resource calls in remaining tests do not send `Hardware` | — | Build/CI invariant — verified by source review during AZ-197 batch 6 |
+| AZ-197 AC-6 | `ExceptionEnum` no longer carries `HardwareIdMismatch` / `BadHardware` | — | Build/CI invariant — verified by enum read |
+| AZ-197 AC-7 | `dotnet build` is clean (no new warnings) | — | Build invariant |
+| AZ-197 AC-8 | Test suite passes (excluding deleted `HardwareBindingTests`) | All e2e tests + `Azaion.Test` | Covered by Step 11 Run Tests (48/48 e2e + 2/2 unit, 2026-05-13) |
