Replace scraper container with backend API container. Web image no
longer mounts a data volume or ships SQLite. Backend image runs Hono
server with node-cron scheduler, owns the database exclusively.

Standalone Node.js backend that owns the SQLite database and serves
composed data via REST endpoints. Replaces the shell-scheduled scraper
with in-process node-cron tiered scheduling.
Backend structure:
- Hono HTTP server on port 3001 with CORS and request logging
- Singleton SQLite connection with WAL mode
- In-memory TTL cache for Queue-Times and fetchToday responses
- Comparison check on fetchToday (read-before-write, only upserts on change)
API endpoints:
- GET /api/calendar/week — week schedule + live ride counts for all parks
- GET /api/calendar/:parkId/month — month calendar for one park
- GET /api/parks — park list with metadata
- GET /api/parks/:id — single park detail
- GET /api/parks/:id/rides — live rides with Queue-Times/schedule fallback
- GET /api/status — health check, scrape stats
- POST /api/scrape/trigger — manual scrape (scope: today/month/upcoming/full)
Scheduler tiers:
- Tier 1: today — hourly (Mar-Dec)
- Tier 2: current month — every 6 hours
- Tier 3: upcoming — twice daily (3 AM + 3 PM)
- Tier 4: full year — daily at 3 AM

- Add lib/park-meta.ts to manage data/park-meta.json (rcdb_id + coaster lists)
- Add lib/scrapers/rcdb.ts to scrape operating coaster names from RCDB park pages
- discover.ts now seeds park-meta.json with skeleton entries for all parks
- scrape.ts now refreshes RCDB coaster lists (30-day staleness) for parks with rcdb_id set
- fetchLiveRides() accepts a coasterNames Set; isCoaster uses normalize() on both sides
to handle trademark symbols, 'THE ' prefixes, and punctuation differences between
Queue-Times and RCDB names — applies correctly to both land rides and top-level rides
- Commit park-meta.json so it ships in the Docker image (fresh volumes get it automatically)
- Update .gitignore / .dockerignore to exclude only *.db files, not all of data/
- Dockerfile copies park-meta.json into image before VOLUME declaration
- README: document coaster filter setup and correct staleness window (72h not 7d)
