+# Watchtower's update report, published to the ntfy `arrsstack-alerts` topic.
+# Shoutrrr format: ntfy://<user>:<password>@<host>/<topic>
+#
+# The credential is the dedicated ntfy user `watchtower`, write-only on
+# arrsstack-alerts and nothing else — NOT the admin account and NOT the older
+# `publisher` user that owns the scouting topics. Created 2026-08-03 when ntfy
+# moved to auth-default-access deny-all; until then this URL carried no
+# credentials at all and published anonymously.
+#
+# Verified at setup: 200 to arrsstack-alerts, 403 to any other topic.
