# Install

This directory is reserved for ordered, idempotent installation scripts for Atlas.

## What Belongs Here

- Bootstrap scripts.
- Package installation scripts.
- Service installation scripts.
- Storage, runtime, and tooling setup scripts.
- Validation wrappers for installation phases.

## What Must Not Be Stored Here

- Secrets, passwords, tokens, private keys, or live credentials.
- One-off experiments.
- Generated logs.
- Downloaded package caches.
- Application source code.
- Deployment artefacts.

## Naming Conventions

Use a two-digit numeric prefix followed by a short lower-case hyphenated name:

```text
01-base-tools.sh
02-dotnet.sh
03-sqlserver.sh
04-nginx.sh
05-docker.sh
```

Scripts must follow [SERVER-STANDARDS.md](../SERVER-STANDARDS.md).

## Expected Future Structure

Phase scripts may be added directly under this directory at first. If the directory grows, shared helpers may be added under a clearly named subdirectory.

Future structure is `TODO: Confirm during the relevant implementation phase.`

## Security Considerations

- Use `sudo` only for commands that need it.
- Do not print secrets.
- Do not embed credentials.
- Validate package sources and signing keys.
- Make scripts safe to rerun.
