<h2>Greptile Overview</h2>
<h3>Greptile Summary</h3>
This PR expands the DigitalOcean deployment guide from a single manual Droplet path into three options (manual Droplet, 1‑Click Marketplace app, and App Platform), with updated step-by-step instructions and additional guidance.
The main issues to address before merge are correctness/stability of a few doc references and commands: the Droplet sizing “reference” link points to a non-official domain, the App Platform “gateway health” example assumes `ws://127.0.0.1:18789` is reachable from the console, and the WhatsApp login command syntax is inconsistent with the documented CLI reference.
<h3>Confidence Score: 3/5</h3>
- This PR is likely safe to merge after correcting a few doc instructions/links that can send users down failing paths.
- Changes are documentation-only, but a couple of concrete instructions appear unreliable (non-official sizing link; App Platform health check hard-codes a loopback WS URL; inconsistent channels login syntax vs CLI docs). Fixing these reduces the chance of user setup failure.
