Research direction

Start with scripts/run_nodes.sh and compare its defaults with the Docker and Kubernetes deployment configuration described in the issue. Reproduce the difference between localhost access and the public wss:// endpoint, then verify that the RPC service is externally reachable through the deployed node.
