Action required

1. Installer clones wrong repo🐞 Bug ≡ Correctness
Description
README.md now instructs users to run installers from the ether/etherpad repo, but both installer
scripts still default to cloning https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite.git, so the one-liner can
install a different repo than the documentation implies.
Code

README.md[R74-81]

+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ether/etherpad/master/bin/installer.sh | sh
Evidence
The README’s updated one-liners pull installer scripts from ether/etherpad, but the installer
scripts’ default ETHERPAD_REPO/$EtherpadRepo values still point to etherpad-lite.git, creating
a mismatch between what users download and what gets cloned by default.

README.md[71-88]
bin/installer.sh[5-12]
bin/installer.sh[33-38]
bin/installer.ps1[1-11]
bin/installer.ps1[37-41]

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
README.md now points users to run installers from `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ether/etherpad/...`, but the installer scripts still default to cloning `https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite.git`. This can cause the one-liner install path to clone an unexpected repository.
## Issue Context
- README is the primary entry point for users.
- `bin/installer.sh` and `bin/installer.ps1` embed their own default clone URL.
## Fix Focus Areas
- bin/installer.sh[5-12]
- bin/installer.sh[33-38]
- bin/installer.ps1[1-11]
- bin/installer.ps1[37-41]
- README.md[71-88]
## Suggested fix
- Change the default repo URL in both installer scripts to `https://github.com/ether/etherpad.git`.
- Update the usage examples/comments in both scripts to match the new raw GitHub URLs.
- Ensure README and installer scripts agree on the repo being installed (directory name can remain `etherpad-lite` if intentional).

2. Broken Docker badge link🐞 Bug ◔ Observability
Description
README.md links the Docker workflow badge to actions/workflows/dockerfile.yml, but this repo’s
Docker workflow file is docker.yml, so the badge/link will 404.
Code

README.md[38]

+[![Docker file](https://github.com/ether/etherpad/actions/workflows/dockerfile.yml/badge.svg?color=%2344b492)](https://github.com/ether/etherpad/actions/workflows/dockerfile.yml)
Evidence
README references a workflow file named dockerfile.yml, but the repository actually contains a
Docker workflow named docker.yml, so the README badge target does not match the workflow filename
in this repo.

README.md[35-39]
.github/workflows/docker.yml[1-5]

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The README Docker CI badge points to `actions/workflows/dockerfile.yml`, but the repository workflow file is `docker.yml`. This breaks the badge and link.
## Issue Context
The repo contains `.github/workflows/docker.yml`.
## Fix Focus Areas
- README.md[35-39]
- .github/workflows/docker.yml[1-5]
## Suggested fix
Update the Docker badge/link in README to reference `actions/workflows/docker.yml` (both the `badge.svg` URL and the clickable link).

3. Conflicting GitHub URLs🐞 Bug ⚙ Maintainability
Description
Startup logging now directs users to https://github.com/ether/etherpad/issues, but the default pad
text still advertises https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite, giving users conflicting guidance on
where the project lives.
Code

src/node/hooks/express.ts[68]

+  console.log('Report bugs at https://github.com/ether/etherpad/issues');
Evidence
The PR changes the startup console output to the new issues URL, while the default pad text shown to
users on new pads still points to the old repository URL, making the product’s user-facing
references inconsistent.

src/node/hooks/express.ts[67-72]
src/node/utils/Settings.ts[390-397]

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
User-facing text references two different GitHub repositories (`etherpad` vs `etherpad-lite`). This is confusing for users looking for source/issues.
## Issue Context
- Startup console message points to `https://github.com/ether/etherpad/issues`.
- Default pad contents still include `https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite`.
## Fix Focus Areas
- src/node/hooks/express.ts[67-72]
- src/node/utils/Settings.ts[390-397]
## Suggested fix
Update `defaultPadText` to point at the same GitHub repo as the startup message (and consider doing the same for other prominent user-facing URLs if they exist).
