+### Fixed
+- **Docker/Traefik “Impossibile contattare il server”** — PHP 8.2 deprecation notices (`LoggingPDO::prepare`) were emitted as HTML before JSON, breaking `fetch().json()` on the startup health check; API bootstrap now suppresses HTML error output in production.
+- **Traefik HTTPS redirect loop** — `.htaccess` skips the HTTPS redirect when `X-Forwarded-Proto: https` is already set (compatible with Traefik `sslheader` middleware); no need to disable `.htaccess` manually.
+- **LoggingPDO PHP 8.2** — `#[\ReturnTypeWillChange]` on `prepare()` to eliminate deprecation noise in error logs.
