+- mixed-content prevention guidance for HTTPS deployments

+# Production Proxy Profile (HTTPS)
+
+This profile defines a secure and repeatable NexaPG deployment behind a reverse proxy.
+
+## Included Profile Files
+
+- `ops/profiles/prod/.env.production.example`
+- `ops/profiles/prod/nginx/nexapg.conf`
+
+## CORS Recommendations by Environment
+
+| Environment | Recommended `CORS_ORIGINS` | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `dev` | `*` or local explicit origins | `*` is acceptable only for local/dev usage. |
+| `staging` | Exact staging UI origins | Example: `https://staging-monitor.example.com` |
+| `prod` | Exact production UI origin(s) only | No wildcard; use comma-separated HTTPS origins if needed. |
+
+Examples:
+
+```env
+# dev only
+CORS_ORIGINS=*
+
+# staging
+CORS_ORIGINS=https://staging-monitor.example.com
+
+# prod
+CORS_ORIGINS=https://monitor.example.com
+```
+
+## Reverse Proxy Requirements
+
+For stable auth, CORS, and request context handling, forward these headers to backend:
+
+- `Host`
+- `X-Real-IP`
+- `X-Forwarded-For`
+- `X-Forwarded-Proto`
+- `X-Forwarded-Host`
+- `X-Forwarded-Port`
+
+Also forward API paths:
+
+- `/api/` -> backend service (`:8000`)
+
+## Mixed-Content Prevention
+
+NexaPG frontend is designed to avoid mixed-content in HTTPS mode:
+
+- Build/runtime default API base is relative (`/api/v1`)
+- `frontend/src/api.js` upgrades `http` API URL to `https` when page runs on HTTPS
+
+Recommended production setting:
+
+```env
+VITE_API_URL=/api/v1
+```
+
+## Validation Checklist
+
+1. Open app over HTTPS and verify:
+   - login request is `https://.../api/v1/auth/login`
+   - no browser mixed-content errors in console
+2. Verify CORS behavior:
+   - allowed origin works
+   - unknown origin is blocked
+3. Verify backend receives forwarded protocol:
+   - proxied responses succeed with no redirect/proto issues
+
+## CI Validation
+
+`Proxy Profile Validation` workflow runs static guardrail checks:
+
+- relative `VITE_API_URL` default
+- required API proxy path in frontend NGINX config
+- required forwarded headers
+- HTTPS mixed-content guard in frontend API resolver
+- production profile forbids wildcard CORS
