fix(security): do not bind-mount host CLI auth dirs by default (#3521)

* fix(security): do not bind-mount host CLI auth dirs by default

The Compose stack bind-mounted the entire ~/.claude and ~/.codex dirs
(read-only) into the root gateway container in every configuration -- exposing
not just credentials but full conversation history, per-project session data,
and global CLI config. The default OpenAI-compatible model providers and the
local sandbox never use them.

Move the mounts to an opt-in docker/docker-compose.cli-auth.yaml overlay.
Document env-token paths (CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN, CODEX_AUTH_PATH) in
.env.example -- the Gateway credential loader reads env first, so most setups
need no mount at all. Document the exposure and per-mode options in SECURITY.md.

Reported by @greatmengqi.

* docs: clarify ACP adapter auth and add Claude single-file credential option

- ACP adapters authenticate independently (many take an env API key like
  ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and need no mount); the cli-auth overlay is only for
  adapters that read the full CLI config dir. Avoids steering users toward
  mounting the whole dir for ACP when env auth usually suffices.
- Add CLAUDE_CODE_CREDENTIALS_PATH (single .credentials.json) as a Claude
  one-file option, matching codex CODEX_AUTH_PATH and the README.

* docs: cite claude-code-acp env auth and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR in ACP guidance

Replace the generic 'some adapters' wording with the verified behavior of
the common claude-code-acp adapter (env ANTHROPIC_API_KEY startup + CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR),
so the 'no ~/.claude mount needed for ACP' guidance is backed by a concrete adapter.

## CLI Credential Mounts (Claude Code / Codex)
DeerFlow can reuse your Claude Code / Codex CLI subscription login as a model
provider (`ClaudeChatModel`, the Codex provider) or for ACP agents that run the
CLI in-container. The Compose stack used to bind-mount the **entire** `~/.claude`
and `~/.codex` directories (read-only) into the gateway container in **every**
configuration — exposing not just credentials but full conversation history,
per-project session data, and global CLI config. A gateway compromise (prompt
injection, tool/MCP misuse, RCE) would leak all of it.
These directories are **no longer mounted by default**. Supply CLI credentials
with the least exposure that fits your setup:
| Need | How | Exposure |
|------|-----|----------|
| Claude model provider | env `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` / `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` (via `.env`), or `CLAUDE_CODE_CREDENTIALS_PATH` → a single mounted `.credentials.json` | none / one file |
| Codex model provider | env `CODEX_AUTH_PATH` pointing at a single mounted `auth.json` | one file |
| ACP agent | the adapter's own auth — many ACP adapters take an env API key (e.g. `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` / `OPENAI_API_KEY`) and need no mount; use the opt-in `docker/docker-compose.cli-auth.yaml` overlay only if your adapter reads the full CLI config dir | none / full dir |
The Gateway credential loader checks environment variables **before** the
default credential files, so the env-token paths need no bind mount at all. ACP
adapters authenticate independently of DeerFlow via their own documented env —
for example the common `claude-code-acp` adapter starts as
`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=… claude-code-acp` and honors `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` to redirect
its config directory, so it needs no `~/.claude` mount at all. Prefer the
adapter's documented env auth, and reach for the
`docker-compose.cli-auth.yaml` overlay only as a fallback for an adapter that
genuinely reads the full CLI config directory.

# DeerFlow — CLI auth overlay (OPT-IN, NOT loaded by default)
#
# Bind-mounts the host Claude Code / Codex CLI config dirs into the gateway so:
# - ClaudeChatModel / Codex model providers can reuse the CLI subscription
# login (~/.claude/.credentials.json, ~/.codex/auth.json), and
# - ACP agents (acp_agents in config.yaml) that run the claude/codex CLI
# inside the container can read their config.

# SECURITY: these mounts expose the ENTIRE ~/.claude and ~/.codex dirs

# the gateway container, read-only. A gateway compromise leaks all of it. That
# is why they are NOT mounted by default.

# Prefer passing only a token via env instead (no directory exposure):
# CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN / ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN for Claude, CODEX_AUTH_PATH
# for a single Codex auth file — see .env.example and SECURITY.md.
# Use this overlay only when you need the full CLI config (e.g. ACP adapters
# that run the CLI in-container and read more than just the credential file).
