+# Phase 5 Containerization - Implementation Complete
+
+**Date**: 2025-11-19
+**Branch**: feature/phase-5-rss-container
+**Status**: ✅ Complete - Ready for Review
+
+## Summary
+
+Successfully implemented production-ready containerization for StarPunk as the second major component of Phase 5. The implementation provides a complete deployment solution with container orchestration, health monitoring, and comprehensive documentation.
+
+## Deliverables
+
+### Core Implementation
+
+✅ **Health Check Endpoint** (`/health`)
+- Database connectivity verification
+- Filesystem access check
+- JSON response with status, version, environment
+- HTTP 200 (healthy) / 500 (unhealthy)
+
+✅ **Containerfile** (Multi-stage Build)
+- Stage 1: Builder with uv for fast dependency installation
+- Stage 2: Runtime with minimal footprint (174MB)
+- Non-root user (starpunk:1000)
+- Health check integration
+- Gunicorn WSGI server (4 workers)
+
+✅ **Container Orchestration** (`compose.yaml`)
+- Podman Compose compatible
+- Docker Compose compatible
+- Volume mounts for data persistence
+- Environment variable configuration
+- Resource limits and health checks
+- Log rotation
+
+✅ **Reverse Proxy Configurations**
+- **Caddyfile.example**: Auto-HTTPS with Let's Encrypt
+- **nginx.conf.example**: Manual SSL with certbot
+- Security headers, compression, caching strategies
+
+✅ **Documentation**
+- `docs/deployment/container-deployment.md` (500+ lines)
+- Complete deployment guide for production
+- Troubleshooting and maintenance sections
+- Security best practices
+- Implementation report with testing results
+
+### Supporting Files
+
+✅ **.containerignore**: Build optimization
+✅ **requirements.txt**: Added gunicorn==21.2.*
+✅ **.env.example**: Container configuration variables
+✅ **CHANGELOG.md**: Documented v0.6.0 container features
+
+## Testing Results
+
+### Build Metrics
+
+- ✅ **Image Size**: 174MB (target: <250MB) - 30% under target
+- ✅ **Build Time**: 2-3 minutes
+- ✅ **Multi-stage optimization**: Effective
+
+### Runtime Testing
+
+- ✅ **Container Startup**: ~5 seconds (target: <10s)
+- ✅ **Health Endpoint**: Responds correctly with JSON
+- ✅ **RSS Feed**: Accessible through container
+- ✅ **Data Persistence**: Database persists across restarts
+- ✅ **Memory Usage**: <256MB (limit: 512MB)
+
+### Test Suite
+
+- ✅ **449/450 tests passing** (99.78%)
+- ✅ **88% overall coverage**
+- ✅ All core functionality verified
+
+## Container Features
+
+### Security
+
+✅ **Non-root execution**: Runs as starpunk:1000
+✅ **Network isolation**: Binds to localhost only
+✅ **Secrets management**: Environment variables (not in image)
+✅ **Resource limits**: CPU and memory constraints
+✅ **Security headers**: Via reverse proxy configurations
+
+### Production Readiness
+
+✅ **WSGI Server**: Gunicorn with 4 workers
+✅ **Health Monitoring**: Automated health checks
+✅ **Log Management**: Rotation (10MB max, 3 files)
+✅ **Restart Policy**: Automatic restart on failure
+✅ **Volume Persistence**: Data survives container restarts
+✅ **HTTPS Support**: Via Caddy or Nginx reverse proxy
+
+### Compatibility
+
+✅ **Podman**: Tested with Podman 5.6.2 (requires --userns=keep-id)
+✅ **Docker**: Compatible with standard volume mounts
+✅ **Compose**: Both podman-compose and docker compose
+
+## Configuration
+
+### New Environment Variables
+
+```bash
+# RSS Feed
+FEED_MAX_ITEMS=50
+FEED_CACHE_SECONDS=300
+
+# Container
+VERSION=0.6.0
+ENVIRONMENT=production
+WORKERS=4
+WORKER_TIMEOUT=30
+MAX_REQUESTS=1000
+```
+
+## Key Implementation Details
+
+### Podman Permission Solution
+
+**Challenge**: Volume mounts had incorrect ownership
+**Solution**: Use `--userns=keep-id` flag
+```bash
+podman run --userns=keep-id -v ./container-data:/data:rw ...
+```
+
+### Health Check Endpoint
+
+```python
+GET /health
+
+Response:
+{
+  "status": "healthy",
+  "version": "0.6.0",
+  "environment": "production"
+}
+```
+
+### Multi-Stage Build
+
+- **Builder stage**: Installs dependencies with uv
+- **Runtime stage**: Copies venv, minimal image
+- **Result**: 174MB final image
+
+## Deployment Workflows
+
+### Quick Start (Podman)
+
+```bash
+# Build
+podman build -t starpunk:0.6.0 -f Containerfile .
+
+# Run
+podman run -d --name starpunk --userns=keep-id \
+  -p 127.0.0.1:8000:8000 \
+  -v $(pwd)/container-data:/data:rw \
+  --env-file .env \
+  starpunk:0.6.0
+
+# Verify
+curl http://localhost:8000/health
+```
+
+### Production Deployment
+
+1. Build container image
+2. Configure .env with production settings
+3. Set up reverse proxy (Caddy or Nginx)
+4. Obtain SSL certificate
+5. Run container with compose
+6. Verify health endpoint
+7. Test IndieAuth with HTTPS
