- close direct host exposure of postgres:5432 and redis:6379 in dev compose
- pin all service images to a specific build SHA instead of floating :high-performance-latest
- enable MOCK_STORAGE for local dev across services
apps/leads implemented its own, independent "lead request" system
(POST /api/leads, /api/lead-requests/send, accept/reject) with a
schema that never matched the live one (message vs remarks, no
professional_user_id, accepted_at/rejected_at instead of resolved_at —
see 20260721030000_create_lead_requests's commit message). Confirmed
unreachable: the frontend's live flows use apps/customers'
/api/customers/requirements and each profession's /leads/request
(crates/contracts::profession_shared), never anything under
apps/leads' own paths. Its /api/lead-requests/* endpoints weren't even
reachable through the gateway (wrong prefix, never matched
/api/leads or /api/admin/leads).
Removed:
- apps/leads/ entirely, and its Cargo.toml workspace membership
- the `leads` docker-compose service, its LEADS_SERVICE_URL env var on
gateway, and gateway's depends_on entry
- the `leads` entry from both CI build matrices (.gitea/.forgejo)
- gateway's leads_url field/routing branch — gateway no longer hard-
requires LEADS_SERVICE_URL to boot (.expect() would have panicked
once the service was gone); /api/admin/leads now falls through to
the customers service, which already had a matching (previously
shadowed) branch for it
NOTE: this service may still have a live Deployment/Service in
nxtgauge-gitops (a separate repo not touched here) — that manifest
should be removed too, or the next deploy will reference an image that
no CI job builds anymore.
