feat(auth): session/proxy auth for Wiki.js buttons; drop browser API key

The wikijs-integration.js embedded a full-privilege API key that was
served to every wiki visitor — it unlocked all 66 authenticated
endpoints, including page/vector deletes and index purges. That key
has been rotated out of service.

The two browser endpoints (/ingest/page, /entity-linking/link-page)
now authenticate via the NPM /library-desk/ proxy location instead of a
key: Authentik forward-auth for external users, LAN bypass for internal,
verified by a trusted proxy marker header. This is safe because
library-desk binds loopback-only, so NPM is the sole path that can set
that header. The browser holds no secret; the script calls same-origin
with credentials. Machine callers (the Scheduler) keep the Bearer key
on the container-network endpoints. verify_api_key now compares in
constant time.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.9.0] - 2026-07-20
+
+### Security
+
+- The Wiki.js integration buttons no longer embed an API key in the browser. The re-index and entity-link endpoints now authenticate via the NPM `/library-desk/` proxy (Authentik session for external users, LAN bypass for internal), verified by a trusted proxy marker header. The previously-embedded key was a full-privilege key served to every wiki visitor; it has been rotated out of service.
+- `verify_api_key` now uses a constant-time comparison.
+
+### Changed
+
+- `static/wikijs-integration.js` calls library-desk same-origin (`/library-desk/...`) with `credentials: same-origin` and no `Authorization` header. Update the Wiki.js code-injection snippet to `<script src="/library-desk/static/wikijs-integration.js">`.
+- Machine callers (the Scheduler) continue to use the Bearer API key against the container-network endpoints; only the two browser endpoints switched to proxy auth.
+
+## [1.8.1] - 2026-07-19
+
+### Changed
+
+- Container images are now pushed via the `git.schweitz.net` registry endpoint (the `.internal` registry domain is being retired); no change to the image name consumed by Watchtower.
+- `.env.example` service URL defaults now use docker-dataplane container names (`wiki:3000`, `neo4j:7687`, `searxng:8080`, `paperless:8000`, `ollama:11434`) instead of host IP + published port, ahead of the Phase 4 port lockdown; AGENTS.md deploy health-check URL corrected from port 8000 to 8089.
