Add automated encrypted daily backup for paperless-ngx#95
Merged
Conversation
Uses paperless document_exporter for version-independent exports, restic for encrypted/deduplicated snapshots, and launchd for daily 03:00 scheduling. Secrets stored in macOS Keychain at runtime — no plaintext credentials on disk. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
