Unify local PostgreSQL port expectations across Docker and standalone setups #21

Description

@tystar86

Imported from Linear: TYS-162

Source: docs/developers/START_HERE.md## Common Pitfalls

Standalone local PostgreSQL uses host port 5432, while Docker exposes PostgreSQL on host port 5433. This is easy to miss during setup and troubleshooting.

Goal:

  • Reduce onboarding friction caused by port mismatches.
  • Decide whether the difference should be standardized, surfaced more clearly, or automated in local setup guidance.

Acceptance ideas:

  • Local setup instructions make the port distinction obvious.
  • Common connection errors caused by using the wrong port are easier to avoid.
