[bug\_fix] SQLite: attempt to write a readonly database

Ensure the SQLite file and its containing directory are writable by the process user. If the database is on a read-only filesystem or bind-mounted read-only, move it to a writable volume. Avoid opening the database with a mode=ro URI when writes are expected.

Journey Context:
Your containerized Python app writes to /app/data/app.db. Locally it works, but in production you get attempt to write a readonly database. You exec into the pod and see the directory is owned by root while the app runs as uid 1000. You add a Dockerfile RUN chown -R 1000:1000 /app/data and mount a writable persistent volume. Writes succeed because the process now has filesystem-level write permission.
