Wire container bootstrap settings to the install form, use isolated default persistence, preserve historical initialization markers during upgrades, add fixed and floating V2 variants, and constrain Renovate so V1 LTS and V2 releases remain separate.
Give the Mend App and the self-hosted Docker scanner disjoint manager scopes, branch namespaces, and dependency dashboards so they cannot close each other's PRs. Preserve the existing Compose policy in a dedicated config and document the scaling boundary.
