Walk through the documented fresh-install path and reduce the edits needed across Compose, .env and when.yaml.

Identify which values truly need user input, which can use safe defaults, and where configuration is duplicated. Consider whether .env can be smaller or optional without obscuring how values reach containers.

Keep authentication secrets, required service credentials and persistence explicit. Do not trade secure defaults for fewer setup steps. Update the sample files and short setup instructions together, and verify the first-run path in isolation.
