- `README.md`, `docs/REPOSTRUCTURE.md`, `internal/cli/snapshot.go`: a backup needs only write permission on S3; an rclone remote that can move objects also needs read and delete, and an upload there stops when its look-up is refused. - `docs/DATAMODEL.md`, `docs/REPOSTRUCTURE.md`: a restore reads no file, chunk or blob rows from the local index, but it does open it. - `README.md`: confirmation prompts go to stdout. - `internal/cli/remote.go`: `remote nuke` leaves the backup destination store empty, not a bucket prefix. - `README.md`: a TODO section, as `REPO_POLICIES.md` requires.
