## Database Command Style

When suggesting database commands in this repository, always use credentials loaded from `.env` inline in the command.

Required pattern:
- Read `MARIADB_ROOT_PASSWORD` from `.env` with `grep` and sanitize quotes/CRLF.
- Read `MARIADB_DATABASE` from `.env` with `grep` and sanitize quotes/CRLF.
- Pass both values directly to `mariadb` command invocations.

Preferred one-liner style:

```bash
docker exec -i recipe-db mariadb -uroot -p"$(grep -E '^[[:space:]]*MARIADB_ROOT_PASSWORD[[:space:]]*=' .env | tail -n1 | sed -E 's/^[^=]*=[[:space:]]*//; s/[[:space:]]+$//; s/^["'\''']|["'\''']$//g' | tr -d '\r')" "$(grep -E '^[[:space:]]*MARIADB_DATABASE[[:space:]]*=' .env | tail -n1 | sed -E 's/^[^=]*=[[:space:]]*//; s/[[:space:]]+$//; s/^["'\''']|["'\''']$//g' | tr -d '\r')" -e "SELECT 1;"
```

Do not suggest hardcoded passwords for MariaDB commands.
