docker-compose.yml and docker-compose.prod.yml defaulted API_HOST/LIVE_WS_HOST/ HOSTNAME to 0.0.0.0 and published the dashboard/API/live-WS ports with bare, unscoped specs, which Docker expands to every interface. Combined with REQUIRE_API_KEY=false shipping as the .env.example default, this exposed the anonymous /v1 LLM proxy to the whole LAN/WAN (#12568). The optional cliproxyapi sidecar had the same unscoped publish spec plus no forwarded auth env var, exposing a credential-bearing service the same way (#12578); qdrant and bifrost had the identical gap. Applies the existing Redis loopback-bind precedent (tests/unit/compose-redis- loopback-bind.test.ts) to the app's own ports and to cliproxyapi/qdrant/bifrost: - New APP_BIND_HOST / CLIPROXY_BIND_HOST / QDRANT_BIND_HOST / BIFROST_BIND_HOST opt-in vars, defaulting to 127.0.0.1, documented in .env.example and docs/reference/ENVIRONMENT.md. - API_HOST/LIVE_WS_HOST default to 127.0.0.1 in both compose files; the prod file no longer hardcodes HOSTNAME=0.0.0.0. - cliproxyapi now forwards CLIPROXYAPI_MANAGEMENT_KEY as MANAGEMENT_PASSWORD, the one env var the pinned image actually reads for its management API. - A new boot-time guard (src/lib/startup/nonLoopbackApiKeyGuard.ts) logs a warning — never a hard failure — when the API bridge or live-WS server ends up bound to a non-loopback host while REQUIRE_API_KEY is disabled. ⚠️ base-red inherited: #12732 — unit #12058, integration codex-cache, package-artifact, tarball-smoke, agent-skills-sync Closes #12568 Closes #12578
