Restore Flow

1. Select snapshot (interactive or specified)
2. Download from restic repository
3. Decrypt and decompress
4. Apply selected components:
   • Files: Copy to app directory
   • Database: Import dump
   • Config: Restore configuration

Safety

• Files are restored in-place (existing files overwritten)
• Database is replaced entirely
• Use --extract to preview before applying
