Auto-configure CLI endpoint

- Add specific _next asset routes for accounts, auth, cast apps
- Add image asset routes for each app
- Ensure each app's assets are served from correct directory
- Keep photos app routing unchanged

Should fix accounts/auth/cast apps loading issues.

 ## Next Steps
 
 1. Once S3 is configured, visit your app URL to create an admin account
 2. Configure your mobile apps to use your custom self-hosted server (Settings → Advanced → Custom Server)
 3. Enjoy your private, end-to-end encrypted photo storage! 
+
+## Ente CLI
+
+- The Ente CLI binary is pre-built at `/app/code/ente` inside the app container.
+- Open the Cloudron web terminal (working directory `/app/code`) and run commands with `ente ...` or `./ente ...`.
+- The CLI configuration at `/app/data/home/.ente/config.yaml` already points to your instance (`https://<your-domain>/api`).
+- CLI state is stored under `/app/data/cli-data/` so re-logins persist.
+
+## Museum Server Configuration
+
+- The active configuration lives at `/app/data/ente/server/configurations/local.yaml` and is created the first time the app starts.
+- Subsequent restarts leave this file untouched, so you can whitelist admin accounts or adjust other settings as documented by Ente.
+- Delete the file to regenerate the default template (environment values such as database and S3 credentials are rendered during creation).
