What it is
A compact three-environment topology — FILCA production, FILCA shop and a testing tier — all served through Sora, the load balancer and exit node, with authentication in front and db-central behind.
Developers push, GitHub Actions builds the Docker image, acheron-server watches and rolls it forward. Sellers and end users hit the same edge; the team hears about it in Discord.
