Doxa Maps 3de124209a The joining page's env setup, written from repo's own text
repo answered with the names as they will ship (END-REPO-ENVNAMES) and dx-shepherd caught a path I had
wrongly removed. Both corrected; the doc now states nothing I have not verified.

⚠ MY "THE PATH DOES NOT EXIST" CHECK WAS WRONG, AND WRONG IN AN INSTRUCTIVE WAY. I searched the LAST
COMMIT's file list for pb_migrations and found nothing, then reported the path as unbuilt. `git ls-tree -r
origin/main` shows backend/pocketbase/pb_migrations/.gitkeep — it has been there all along. A file list from
one commit answers "was this touched recently", never "does this exist"; I asked the cheap question and read
it as the expensive one. The real path is restored.

THREE CORRECTIONS FROM repo, each of which would have cost a reader time:
- DX_SYNC_REMOTE is a remote NAME (`origin`), not a URL. My draft said "<the repo URL>", which would have
  failed silently for every joiner who copied it.
- DX_PB_URL IS OUT ENTIRELY. repo was explicit: it points at the shared database, which sits behind the team
  sign-in and does not work from a laptop. Telling a newcomer to set it would have sent them to debug an
  auth wall on their first afternoon. What replaced it is the truth — `bun run dev` downloads and starts a
  local database itself, and there is nothing to configure.
- VITE_MAPBOX_TOKEN is the one credential they must ask for, and my draft never mentioned it. A joiner
  following the old page would have got a working repo and a blank map.

ALSO ADDED, because it is the behaviour that makes the feature safe to recommend: the auto-pull only runs
when you are on that branch, with no unsaved edits and no local commits. Otherwise it does not touch your
files, it says "main is N commits ahead … pull when ready" in the log. That is the difference between a
feature a newcomer trusts and one they turn off after it eats an afternoon's work.

Required set is now stated plainly: DX_SYNC_REMOTE=origin if you want teammates' work to arrive, plus the
Mapbox token. Everything else optional, with its default in a table.
No internal names, re-checked after the rewrite: the only product name left is PocketBase, which a joiner
sees in its own admin UI.

Nothing on the simple path is longer than a few minutes; everything complex lives in architecture/, linked from where you'd need it.
