REPO_POLICIES.md asks the README's first line to name the license and the
author, and for License and Author sections; the README had neither up
front, its License section only said "See LICENSE file.", and it had no
Author section.
TODO.md's Status, Next Step and Future Steps still described the unmerged
repo-policies-compliance branch and a missing CI workflow. They now say
what is true of next, and Completed Steps gains a line for each issue that
landed from 2026-09-21 on without one. The next step is not decided, and
Next Step says so.

A set but invalid PORT (anything but plain digits from 1 to 65535) or a relative XDG_DATA_HOME now stops the start before the database opens; before, a bad PORT left the daemon running without HTTP. entrypoint.sh refuses a MALLOC_ARENA_MAX that is not a positive whole number, since glibc ignores a bad one silently. The HEALTHCHECK probes the port PORT names, 8080 when unset. PORT is now read in internal/config, so server.New takes the config.
The README gives the real Linux state directory, lists XDG_DATA_HOME, and adds "Running under upaas": port, volume, environment, the 5g memory limit and the health check.
Unverified: the 5g memory limit could not be exercised on the build host.

After the earlier memory work, SQLite's live heap is bounded but process
RSS still climbed about 70 MiB/min, nearly all anonymous and outside the
Go runtime and outside SQLite's own accounting, without any SQLITE_NOMEM.
The cause is glibc: the SQLite C library allocates and frees millions of
small page-cache chunks from many threads, and glibc keeps each arena's
freed chunks resident. With arenas uncapped it creates up to eight per
core, so on a large host RSS grows with the core count.
Set MALLOC_ARENA_MAX=2 in the image to bound the retained memory. Writes
are already serialized, so the two-arena cap costs no throughput. Update
the README Memory section.

Add ENV GOMEMLIMIT=1536MiB to the runtime stage so the Go runtime keeps a
1.5 GiB soft heap limit. runuser preserves it the way it already does
XDG_DATA_HOME, so the routewatch process inherits it.
Add a Memory section to the README describing the budget (Go 1.5 GiB soft,
SQLite 640 MiB pool cache and 1.5 GiB hard heap, ~0.2 GiB other), the
required 5 GiB container limit, how to override GOMEMLIMIT, what happens at
each limit, and the DEBUG=routewatch System stats line. Every sentence
matches the behaviour already merged to next.

TestRouteWatchLiveFeed streams the live RIPE RIS feed for a few seconds, so
the default test run depended on the network and tripped the race detector.
It now skips under testing.Short(), and script/test passes -short in both
go test lines, so make check runs offline and gives the same result every
time. The README says how to run the live test on demand. No non-test code
changed.
The race itself is not fixed: the test reads the peeringHandler field of
RouteWatch while Run is still setting it. Nothing outside the test reads
that field concurrently.

Add comprehensive godoc comments to all exported types, functions,
and constants throughout the codebase. Create README.md documenting
the project architecture, execution flow, database schema, and
component relationships.
