 password login is turned off, so a failed key setup can't lock you out.

+- **`x-landfall`** on a service routes it: `port` is where Traefik sends requests, `domains` gives it its own
+  (a bare name or `@` works as in `-d`). One routed service without `domains` serves the site's domains, which
+  `-d` and `lf domains` manage. Services without `x-landfall` (the database) stay off Traefik's network.
+- **`ports:` is refused**, since a published port bypasses Traefik and the firewall. Put local ports in
+  `compose.override.yaml`: `docker compose` merges it locally, `lf deploy` leaves it out. To publish a port on
+  the server anyway, add `x-landfall: { publish: true }` to that service.
+- **Named volumes keep your data** across deploys and rollbacks. `lf sites rm` keeps them, so deploying the
+  site again finds its data; `lf sites rm --volumes` deletes them. Each deploy gets a new release folder, so
+  a writable bind mount like `./data` is refused: write data to a named volume (read-only `./dist:…:ro` is fine).
+- **Images built on the server** are tagged `<site>-<service>:<release>`, so a rollback runs the exact image again.
+- Variables in `compose.yaml` come from the site's `.env` on the server (`-e`, `--env-file`, `lf env`).
+  `${VAR:?}` makes a missing one fail the deploy before anything changes.
+- Your own `traefik.*` labels win: a service with its own router keeps them and landfall adds only the network.
+- `-f other.yaml` deploys another file; it is saved in `.landfall.json`. Sites need Docker Compose 2.24 or newer
+  on the server (`lf update --compose`).
+
+The static, Dockerfile and image kinds are Compose sites too: landfall writes their `compose.yaml` for you.
+
+### Running without landfall
+
+Nothing on the server depends on the CLI. Each site is a folder you can drive with plain `docker compose`:
+
+```sh
+cd -P /opt/landfall/sites/blog/current          # -P: into the release folder itself
+docker compose ps                               # or logs -f, restart, up -d, down
+cd /opt/landfall/sites/blog                     # roll back by hand: point current at an older release …
+ln -sfn releases/20260122143005 current
+cd -P current && docker compose up -d           # … and bring it up
+```
+
+`/opt/landfall/README` on the server explains the same. A project you started yourself behind landfall's
+Traefik shows up in `lf sites` as not deployed by landfall; `lf adopt <project>` makes it a site that `lf` can
+list, show logs for, restart and remove, while it keeps running from its own folder.

+## Using landfall from scripts and agents
+
+Every dashboard action is a plain command, and both dashboards print the command they run (`$ lf logs blog -s vps -f`).
+
+- **No prompts:** `-y` accepts confirmations and takes defaults. Without a terminal, prompts are never shown. A
+  command that would ask then **fails** and tells you to pass `-y`. It never silently goes ahead.
+- **Passwords:** pass them with `--password-stdin` or `$LANDFALL_PASSWORD` (`setup`, `server add`). For `lf auth`, use `-p`.
+- **JSON output:** `--json` works on `ls`, `info`, `server config`, `server domain`, `domains`, `firewall`,
+  `updates` and `history`.
+- **Dry runs:** `lf setup <name> --check` changes nothing. `lf updates` only reports.
+- **Exit codes:** `0` means success, `1` means error (the message starts with `error:` on stderr), and `2` means unknown command.
+- **Safety rails:** `-y` never overrides a safety refusal, for example a firewall change that would lock out ssh, or
+  setup steps that would break running services. Only `--force` does.
+
+A typical unattended flow:
+
+```sh
+printf '%s' "$ROOT_PW" | lf setup box --host 203.0.113.7 --password-stdin -y
+lf server domain box example.com -y
+lf deploy ./dist -n blog -s box -y          # → https://blog.example.com
+lf ls -s box --json
+lf history -s box --json
+lf undo -s box -y                           # revert the last run
+```
+
+## Command reference
+
+`[name]` is a site or server and is optional (see [Concepts](#concepts)). Most site and server commands take `-s <server>`. Every command takes `-y` and `--help`.
+
+**Servers**
+
+| command | what it does |
+|---|---|
+| `lf setup <name> [--host ip]` | Turns a box into a deploy target: ssh key, Docker, ufw, fail2ban, deploy user, ssh hardening and Traefik. Idempotent. |
+| `lf setup <name> --check` | Reports what is set up and what setup would change. Changes nothing. |
+| `lf setup <name> --key-only` | Only installs landfall's ssh key. |
+| `lf server add <name> [--host ip] [-u user] [-p port] [-i key] [--password-stdin] [--domain d] [--default]` | Registers a server without installing anything on it. Writes `Host <name>` to `~/.ssh/config`. |
+| `lf server list [--all]` | Lists registered servers. `--all` adds every ssh alias. Alias: `servers`. |
+| `lf server info [name] [--json]` | Shows OS and release support, kernel, uptime, CPU, RAM, disk, addresses and containers. Alias: `info`. |
+| `lf server config [name] [--json]` | Shows everything landfall and ssh use for a server. Does not connect. |
+| `lf server domain [name] [domain...] [--add d] [--primary d] [--rm d] [--clear] [--json]` | Manages main domains (the first is primary) and checks their DNS. |
+| `lf server use <name>` | Sets the default server. |
+| `lf server rm <name>` | Forgets a server locally. The server is untouched. |
+| `lf ssh [name] [-- cmd]` | Opens a shell or runs a one-off command. |
+| `lf keygen <name>` | Creates `~/.ssh/landfall_<name>` and prints the public key. |
+
+**Sites**
+
+| command | what it does |
+|---|---|
+| `lf init [dir] [--postgres] [--port n]` | Writes `compose.yaml` and `compose.override.yaml` for the project, to run it locally and deploy it. |
+| `lf deploy [dir] [-d domain...] [-n name] [-f file] [-b cmd] [--spa] [--image img] [--port n] [-e K=V] [--env-file f] [--static] [--keep n]` | Deploys a Compose project, static folder, Dockerfile app or image. |
+| `lf ls [--json] [--others]` | Lists sites on the server with their status, plus containers Traefik routes that landfall did not deploy (read only; `--json --others` gives `{sites, others}`). Alias: `sites list`. |
+| `lf sites info [name]` | Shows services, domains and release history. |
+| `lf domains [name] [--add d] [--rm d] [--set d] [--json]` | Lists domains with their DNS and HTTPS state, or changes them. |
+| `lf auth [name] -u user [-p pw]` / `--rm-user u` / `--off` | Puts basic-auth login in front of a site. |
+| `lf open [name]` | Opens the site in the browser. |
+| `lf logs [name] [service] [-f] [-n lines]` | Shows logs of all services, or one. |
+| `lf env [name] [K=V...] [-u K]` | Shows or changes the site's `.env`. Recreates the services. |
+| `lf rollback [name] [--to id]` | Switches to the previous release, or to the given one. |
+| `lf restart` / `stop` / `start [name] [service]` | Restarts, stops or starts the site, or one service. |
+| `lf sites rm <name> [--volumes]` | Deletes the site and its files. Named volumes stay unless `--volumes`. |
+| `lf adopt <project> [--name n]` | Makes a Compose project you started yourself a site, so `ls`, logs, restart and rm work for it. |
+
+**Traefik, firewall, updates, history**
+
+| command | what it does |
+|---|---|
+| `lf traefik setup [--email e] [--dashboard host\|traefik\|off] [--staging] [--image img] [--host-network] [--force]` | Installs or reconfigures landfall's Traefik. `--force` overwrites hand edits. |
+| `lf traefik use [container] [--network n --entrypoint e --resolver r]` | Routes sites through a Traefik you already run. |
+| `lf traefik status` / `logs [-f]` / `restart` | Inspects or restarts Traefik. `lf traefik` alone means `status`. |
+| `lf firewall [--json]` | Lists ufw rules and, for each listening port, whether it is reachable. |
+| `lf firewall allow` / `deny <port[/proto]> [--from ip] [--comment c]` | Adds a rule. A deny goes first, so it wins. |
+| `lf firewall update <n> [--port p] [--from ip] [--action allow\|deny\|limit]` | Changes a rule. |
+| `lf firewall rm <n>` / `enable` / `disable` | Removes a rule, or turns ufw on or off. |
+| `lf updates [--no-refresh] [--all] [--json]` | Shows pending OS packages, newer images, and Docker/compose versions. Changes nothing. |
+| `lf update [site...] [--packages] [--security] [--reboot] [--images] [--compose]` | Applies updates. Image and compose updates can be undone. |
+| `lf history [-n 20] [--json]` | Lists what landfall changed on the server, run by run. Alias: `log`. |
+| `lf undo [n \| n.m] [--all] [--force]` | Reverts the latest run, run `n`, step `n.m`, or everything. Alias: `revert`. |
+
+**Dashboards**
+
+| command | what it does |
+|---|---|
+| `lf ui [--port 4777] [--no-open]` | Starts the web dashboard on 127.0.0.1 and prints a login link. |
+| `lf tui` | Starts the terminal dashboard. |
