chore(telemetry): remove Supabase anonymous beacon; fix contact domain to headroomlabs.ai (#1526)
## Description

Removes the anonymous-telemetry **beacon** — the only external,
third-party data flow Headroom ever initiated. When telemetry was opted
in, it POSTed aggregate `/stats` to a hardcoded **Supabase** REST
endpoint (with an embedded anon API key in the source). For
enterprise/on-prem deployments this is exactly the kind of
vendor-controlled data egress a security review flags, so it's gone
entirely — **zero "Supabase" references remain in the codebase.**

What stays (by design): the **local** telemetry collector + the
`HEADROOM_TELEMETRY` opt-in (it only feeds `/stats` and `/v1/telemetry`
— nothing leaves the process), **OpenTelemetry export**
(`HEADROOM_OTEL_METRICS_*`, so operators send operational metrics to
*their own* collector), and the license usage reporter (your own domain,
license-key-gated).

Also fixes the contact domain: `headroom.dev` → `headroomlabs.ai`
everywhere.

Closes # (no tracking issue)

## Type of Change

- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality to change)
- [ ] Documentation update
- [ ] Performance improvement
- [x] Code refactoring (no functional changes)

> Non-breaking: `HEADROOM_TELEMETRY` is still accepted (now gates local
collection only). The only behavior change is that no telemetry is ever
sent externally.

## Changes Made

- **Deleted the Supabase beacon**: `TelemetryBeacon` class,
`_SUPABASE_URL`/`_SUPABASE_KEY`/`_TABLE`/`_ENDPOINT`, the JSONB
projection helper, the proxy-lifespan beacon wiring, the `SUPABASE_`
install env passthrough, and `tests/test_strategy_stats_supabase.py`.
- **Kept** the local opt-in predicate (`is_telemetry_enabled` etc.) in
`beacon.py` — still used by the local collector + CLI — reworded to
"local only".
- **Retained** the single-worker-owner file lock (the cc-switch
reconciler depends on it); updated its comments to drop the beacon
framing.
- `/stats` `anon_telemetry_shipping` is now always `False` (nothing
ships externally); startup log reworded to "Local telemetry".
- Reworded remaining "Supabase" comments in `collector.py`,
`context.py`, `prometheus_metrics.py`, and two test docstrings.
- Contact domain: `security@headroom.dev` → `security@headroomlabs.ai`,
`conduct@headroom.dev` → `conduct@headroomlabs.ai`, FUNDING.yml sponsor
URL.

## Testing

- [x] Unit tests pass (`pytest`)
- [x] Linting passes (`ruff check`)
- [x] Type checking passes (`mypy`)
- [x] New tests added for new functionality
- [x] Manual testing performed

### Test Output

```text
$ grep -rniI "supabase" --include=*.py --include=*.md --include=*.mdx .   # (excl .venv/sbom)
>>> ZERO Supabase references

$ grep -rniI "headroom.dev" .
>>> ZERO headroom.dev references

$ ruff check <changed files>           -> All checks passed!
$ ruff format --check <changed files>  -> 10 files already formatted
$ mypy <changed telemetry files>       -> Success: no issues found

$ pytest tests/test_telemetry.py tests/test_telemetry_warning.py \
    tests/test_proxy_telemetry_env.py tests/test_compression_observability.py \
    tests/test_paths.py tests/test_paths_backward_compat.py -q
============================= 173 passed in 6.67s ==============================
```

## Real Behavior Proof

- **Environment:** macOS, Python 3.12 (`.venv`).
- **Exact command / steps:** repo-wide grep for
`supabase`/`headroom.dev`; `create_app(...)` driven through a full
`TestClient` lifespan (startup + shutdown) in
`test_proxy_telemetry_env.py`; `/stats` exercised in
`test_telemetry_warning.py`.
- **Observed result:** zero `supabase`/`headroom.dev` strings remain;
the proxy starts and shuts down cleanly with the beacon removed (the
worker-owner lock + reconciler still elect a single owner);
`/stats.anon_telemetry_shipping` is `False` even with
`HEADROOM_TELEMETRY=on`; local collector + OTEL paths unchanged.
- **Not tested:** no live network call was ever made (the point — the
external POST is gone). OTEL export and the license reporter were not
exercised (unchanged by this PR).

## Review Readiness

- [x] This PR is ready for human review

## Checklist

- [x] My code follows the project's style guidelines
- [x] I have performed a self-review of my code
- [x] I have commented my code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas
- [ ] I have made corresponding changes to the documentation

- [x] I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my
feature works
- [x] New and existing unit tests pass locally with my changes
- [ ] I have updated the CHANGELOG.md if applicable

## Additional Notes

- The license usage reporter (`reporter.py` → `app.headroomlabs.ai`) is
intentionally **kept** — it's license-key-gated (dormant for
unlicensed/OSS deployments) and goes to your own domain, not a third
party.
- Docs/CHANGELOG left unchecked: a couple of docs mention the telemetry
beacon and may want a follow-up note that it now collects locally only;
happy to add.

## Reporting a Vulnerability
We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security issue, please report it responsibly.
### How to Report
**Please DO NOT open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.**
Instead, please email us at: **security@headroomlabs.ai**
Include the following information:
- Type of vulnerability (e.g., injection, data exposure, authentication bypass)
- Full path of the affected source file(s)
- Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
- Proof-of-concept or exploit code (if possible)
- Impact assessment
### What to Expect
1. **Acknowledgment**: We will acknowledge receipt within 48 hours
2. **Assessment**: We will assess the vulnerability and determine its severity
3. **Updates**: We will keep you informed of our progress
4. **Resolution**: We aim to resolve critical issues within 7 days
5. **Credit**: With your permission, we will credit you in the security advisory
### Security Best Practices for Users
When using Headroom:
1. **API Keys**: Never commit API keys. Use environment variables.
2. **Proxy Exposure**: Don't expose the proxy server to the public internet without authentication
3. **Log Files**: Be aware that request logs may contain sensitive information
4. **Budget Limits**: Set budget limits to prevent unexpected costs
### Scope
The following are in scope for security reports:
- Headroom Python package (`pip install headroom-ai`)
- Headroom proxy server
- Official integrations (LangChain, Agno, Strands, LiteLLM, Vercel AI SDK, Anthropic/OpenAI SDK wrappers, MCP)
The following are out of scope:
- Third-party integrations not maintained by us
- Issues in dependencies (report these to the upstream project)
- Social engineering attacks
## Security Features
Headroom includes several security features:
- **No credential storage**: We never store or log API keys
- **Passthrough mode**: Sensitive content passes through unchanged by default
- **Input validation**: All inputs are validated before processing
- **Safe defaults**: Security-conscious defaults out of the box
Thank you for helping keep Headroom and its users safe!
