## Summary
Self-hosters that operate the webapp's ECR account separately from the
account running the EKS workers (e.g., a shared platform account that
hosts the registry plus per-team accounts that host clusters) currently
hit a 403 Forbidden the first time **any** project is deployed:
```
Failed to pull image "<acct-A>.dkr.ecr.<region>.amazonaws.com/<namespace>/proj_…:…":
unexpected status from HEAD request to .../v2/.../manifests/sha256:…: 403 Forbidden
```
`ensureEcrRepositoryExists` in
`apps/webapp/app/v3/getDeploymentImageRef.server.ts` calls
`CreateRepository` and `PutLifecyclePolicy`, but never
`SetRepositoryPolicy` — so the new repo inherits the AWS default (only
the registry-owner account can read/pull). Workers in the cluster
account get 403 every single deploy. The only workarounds today are
running a one-off post-create script or pre-creating every repo by hand.
## Proposed change
Add an optional env var:
```
DEPLOY_REGISTRY_ECR_DEFAULT_REPOSITORY_POLICY (V4 mirror: V4_DEPLOY_REGISTRY_ECR_DEFAULT_REPOSITORY_POLICY)
```
Raw IAM policy JSON. When set, the webapp calls `SetRepositoryPolicy`
immediately after `CreateRepository` so every new repo carries that
policy from creation. Operators control the principal/actions; we don't
bake in any opinions about cross-account boundaries.
Example value (for the typical self-host case — grant pull to the
cluster account):
```json
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [{
"Sid": "AllowClusterAccountPull",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {"AWS": "arn:aws:iam::<cluster-account-id>:root"},
"Action": [
"ecr:GetDownloadUrlForLayer",
"ecr:BatchGetImage",
"ecr:BatchCheckLayerAvailability"
]
}]
}
```
## Why env var (not a chart-level field)
- Mirrors the shape of the sibling vars (`DEPLOY_REGISTRY_ECR_TAGS`,
`DEPLOY_REGISTRY_ECR_ASSUME_ROLE_ARN`, etc.) which are already
operator-supplied via `webapp.extraEnvVars` in self-host setups.
- Cloud is unaffected — the env var is optional, unset by default;
existing behavior unchanged.
- Existing repos are unaffected — only newly-created repos get the
policy.
- `RepositoryCreationTemplate` from the AWS provider isn't an
alternative here: it only applies to repos created via
pull-through-cache or replication, not to `ecr:CreateRepository` API
calls.
## Implementation
- `apps/webapp/app/env.server.ts` — declare
`DEPLOY_REGISTRY_ECR_DEFAULT_REPOSITORY_POLICY` and the V4 fallback.
- `apps/webapp/app/v3/registryConfig.server.ts` — propagate
`ecrDefaultRepositoryPolicy` to `RegistryConfig`.
- `apps/webapp/app/v3/getDeploymentImageRef.server.ts` —
`createEcrRepository` accepts the policy; if set, calls
`SetRepositoryPolicy` after `PutLifecyclePolicy`.
- `docs/self-hosting/env/webapp.mdx` — documentation row added under
**Deploy & Registry**.
## Verification
Verified end-to-end against a self-hosted Trigger.dev on EKS where the
ECR account is separate from the cluster account:
- **Without the env var** (current `main`): the new project's first run
pod stays in `ImagePullBackOff` with `403 Forbidden`.
- **With the env var set** to a JSON granting
`ecr:BatchGetImage`/`GetDownloadUrlForLayer`/`BatchCheckLayerAvailability`
to the cluster account: a fresh `trigger.dev deploy --env prod` followed
by a `hello-world` run completes in ~5s end-to-end on the first try.
Manually also confirmed that existing repos are untouched (the call only
fires inside `createEcrRepository`, which only runs when
`DescribeRepositories` returned `RepositoryNotFoundException`).
## Out of scope
- Chart values surface for this — operators already pass the existing
ECR vars via `webapp.extraEnvVars`, so this follows the same pattern.
Happy to add a first-class chart field in a follow-up if that's the
preferred direction.
- IAM-policy validation in the webapp — we forward the JSON verbatim to
AWS and surface AWS's error messages on misuse, matching how
`DEPLOY_REGISTRY_ECR_TAGS` is handled today.
This is a draft pending CI / CodeRabbit pass — happy to iterate on
direction (e.g., split into per-action env vars, or extend the chart
values schema) if any of the above choices feels off.

This allows seamless migration to different object storage.
Existing runs that have offloaded payloads/outputs will continue to use
the default object store (configured using `OBJECT_STORE_*` env vars).
You can add additional stores by setting new env vars:
- `OBJECT_STORE_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL` this determines where new run large
payloads will get stored.
- If you set that you need to set new env vars for that protocol.
Example:
```
OBJECT_STORE_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL=“s3"
OBJECT_STORE_S3_BASE_URL=https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
OBJECT_STORE_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<val>
OBJECT_STORE_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<val>
OBJECT_STORE_S3_REGION=us-east-1
OBJECT_STORE_S3_SERVICE=s3
```
