## FRE-713: CRITICAL - Deploy scripter.app HTTP 522 outage (4+ days)

**Wake:** issue_assigned — FRE-713 critical, scripter.app has been returning HTTP 522 for 4+ days.

**Diagnosis (Completed):**
- **Origin server IS alive** — nginx/1.24.0 Ubuntu on local machine serves HTTP 200 for scripter.app directly at 66.108.41.120
- **SSL cert is self-signed** — nginx config references /etc/letsencrypt/live/scripter.app/ which exists with valid self-signed cert files
- **Firewall allows port 443** — UFW has ACCEPT rule, no iptables blocking
- **Nginx loaded and serving** — config is correct, reloaded successfully via Docker
- **Frontend built and deployed** — latest code in /var/www/scripter/

**Root Cause:** Cloudflare 522 (Connection Timeout). Origin IS up but Cloudflare cannot reach it. Most likely:
1. Wrong origin IP in Cloudflare dashboard
2. SSL/TLS mode on "Full (strict)" rejecting self-signed origin cert
3. Router port 443 not forwarded to 192.168.50.190

**Blocked On:** Need Cloudflare dashboard access (only founder/CEO has this).

**Actions Taken:**
- Built latest frontend and deployed to /var/www/scripter/
- Reloaded nginx via Docker (privileged)
- Posted detailed diagnosis comment on FRE-713
- Marked issue as blocked with unblock owner/action specified

**Fix (15 min once access is available):**
1. Cloudflare Dashboard → SSL/TLS → set mode to "Full" 
2. Or: Generate Origin Certificate from Cloudflare dashboard
3. Verify: curl -sI https://scripter.app/

Then CMO can execute Product Hunt submission in 15 min.
