The surface shipped at /system with no nav entry, reachable only by
clicking the health dot beside the brand — a target you have to already
suspect something is wrong to go looking for. Operator-flagged: it needs
a path someone can walk to.

Settings is where you go to ask the instance about itself, so the view
becomes a tab there, beside Activity — Activity answers "what is the
queue doing", System answers "is anything left to do it".

- SystemView.vue moves to components/settings/SystemHealthTab.vue; the
  content is unchanged apart from shedding its own container and h1.
- SettingsView adopts useTabQuery (the composable Browse and
  Subscriptions already use) so a tab can be linked TO. The health dot
  now points at ?tab=system, and /system redirects there so the previous
  build's link and any bookmark still land.
- The tab drops its own 10s poll. v-window keeps a visited item mounted
  rather than destroyed, so that timer would have gone on firing behind
  Maintenance — and TopNav already polls the same store every 15s for
  the dot.

The ask was a surface AND a path. The path is the part that was missing —
everything that could answer "is it running" lived inside Settings, which you
only open once you already suspect something.

**Re-used the indicator that already existed rather than adding a fourth.**
There were three partial surfaces: TopNav's health dot, PipelineStatusChip's
pulse, and the Settings Activity tab. None answered "is every part alive", and
a fourth would have made the question harder to answer, not easier.

TopNav's dot read /api/health — a no-DB liveness check proving only that the
WEB container is serving. Green there while a worker was dead is exactly what
it looked like, and a green dot beside the product name gets read as
"everything is fine". It now reflects the whole-stack verdict, and it is a
link: the place someone already looks when they suspect something is now also
the way to the detail.

The tooltip names the actual problem. "Scheduler has not checked in for 6 min"
sends someone somewhere; "something is unhealthy" sends them hunting.

/system is deliberately NOT in the nav row — TopNav builds that from routes
with a meta.title, and a sixth top-level tab for a page visited twice a year
costs more attention than it returns. It is reached from the dot.

The page lists every learned part with its state as a sentence rather than a
chip, and prints the staleness thresholds it was judged by, taken from the
endpoint so the UI keeps no second copy of them. PipelineStatusChip still
hand-rolls its own 3-minute scheduler window; that is now a duplicate of a
threshold the server owns, and worth collapsing once this has been watched
working.

The stores stay separate on purpose: system.js is "can I reach the API",
systemActivity.js is "what is the pipeline doing", systemHealth.js is "is
anything broken". Running and alive fail independently — an idle stack with a
dead worker looks identical to a healthy one on every activity surface, which
is the whole reason this milestone exists.

Not yet verified against a real stopped service. Rule 12 keeps a local stack
out of it, and frontend CI has no Vue type-check or visual regression, so this
needs an operator look rather than a green lane.

The single endpoint the nav indicator and the System page will both read.
Composing a verdict is this module's job, not the UI's.

Two kinds of part, answered differently. LEARNED — celery roles and the GPU
agent, out of service_seen, where the question is "how long since it checked
in" and the answer can be "it has not". PROBED — Postgres and Redis, always
expected, never learned, because a last-seen for them would be actively
misleading: that Redis answered thirty seconds ago says nothing about now.

**The endpoint must never fail because something it checks has failed.** That
inversion is easy to write by accident and it destroys the feature exactly
when it is needed — a 500 when Redis is down instead of `redis: down`. Every
probe is wrapped, every wait carries a deadline (rule 156), and the roster
refresh swallows its own errors. The worst case is a part reported `unknown`,
which is a true statement about the system.

Postgres is probed first and gates the rest, because if it is unreachable
nothing else can be read — and "the database is down" is the most useful
single thing this can ever say.

The staleness thresholds are the design risk, not the code, and they are
deliberately generous: 90s to doubt, 300s to disbelieve. The constraint is a
deploy rather than a crash — `docker compose up -d` rolls start-first, so a
role is briefly served by two containers and then by neither while the old one
drains. Thresholds tight enough to catch a crash in seconds would paint the
page red on every update, and an alarm that cries wolf on every deploy is one
nobody reads. Tune down only after watching a real deploy pass through. The
numbers ship in the response so the UI can explain a `stale` without keeping a
second copy of them.

States are described in sentences rather than left as chips: "Scheduler has
not checked in for 6 min — treat it as stopped" is what someone needs at the
moment they are deciding whether to go and open Portainer.

Nothing in FabledCurator knew what was SUPPOSED to be running. `celery
inspect` reports the workers that ANSWER, so a dead worker was a shorter list
rather than a red light, and grep for any notion of expected services returned
nothing. That is why Portainer was the only place an operator could see it:
Portainer knows the intended set.

`service_seen` is the memory that makes an absence observable — every part
that has checked in, and when it last did.

**Keyed on the queue set, not the worker hostname.** Celery's worker names
here are `celery@<container id>`, minted fresh on every deploy. Keyed on those,
this table would record a death and a birth every time the stack updates — and
a status page that goes red on every deploy is a status page nobody reads,
which is worse than not having one. CELERY_QUEUES is assigned per role in
compose and survives container replacement, so it is the stable identity. Two
replicas of a role are therefore ONE row, which is right: the question is
whether the role is served, not how many containers exist.

The GPU agent is keyed on agent_id, the identity its lease protocol already
uses. gpu.py received it on both lease and heartbeat and threw it away — an
idle agent with nothing to lease left no trace and was indistinguishable from
one switched off a week ago. Now recorded on the calls that were already
happening.

**Who observes, corrected from the plan.** The plan said "record from the
existing inspect path", which would only run when someone opened the Activity
tab. Two other candidates and why they lost:

- A beat sweep. If the scheduler dies the sweep stops, every row goes stale,
  and the page says everything is down when one thing is. An alarm that cannot
  distinguish "a part died" from "the observer died" is worse than none.
- A background task in web. hypercorn runs --workers 4, so that is four
  concurrent inspect loops per container, forever.

Taken instead: refresh on demand, rate-limited by the newest last_seen_at that
every process can already see. The observer is then the thing serving the page
— if web is down you get a browser error, not a confidently green page — and
it self-limits with no coordination, since a race costs one redundant inspect
that writes identical values.

Migration 0090 is the first written on the collapsed baseline (milestone 328),
so it is also the first evidence the chain steps FORWARD from 0089 rather than
merely reproducing the schema. No secondary indexes: one row per moving part
means every read is a handful of rows, and #3301 is the record of what
speculative indexes cost.

The gate held. Run 5320, dispatched with the forced failure in place:

  build-web    success   (candidate published)
  build-ml     success
  build-agent  success
  smoke-web    FAILED
  promote      skipped
  run          failure

And the three channel tags did not move:

  fabledcurator        33d3d8332f74 -> 33d3d8332f74
  fabledcurator-ml     e94a5435cb45 -> e94a5435cb45
  fabledcurator-agent  bae27d34d811 -> bae27d34d811

So a refresh that breaks something now leaves :latest naming the build that
works, which is the property milestone 362 exists to establish. The rejected
candidate is still published under :refresh-candidate, so whoever reads the
red job on Monday can pull the exact image that failed.

TEMPORARY, reverted in the next commit. Milestone 362's verification section
requires the gate to be seen rejecting a build — a gate nobody has watched
reject anything is a gate nobody knows is wired up. Every real check passes,
so the rejection has to be forced.

Under test is the job dependency, not the assertions: a failed smoke-web must
skip the promote job, and the three :latest tags must still name the digests
they named before the run.

The gate reported a verdict nothing consulted. Now it decides.

The promote moved out of the three build jobs into its own `promote` job,
because the verdict cannot exist until build-web has finished and the promote
used to run inside it. `needs: [build-web, build-ml, build-agent, smoke-web]`
is the whole mechanism: a failed smoke skips the promote, so a refresh that
broke something leaves :latest naming the build that works. "The refresh
failed" and "production is broken" must not be the same event.

A SKIPPED smoke also skips it, and that is the case that matters most. On run
5290 the gate silently skipped itself — job-level `if:` cannot read the env
context — and a design where only a FAILED gate blocks would have published
unverified images while reporting success. Not running is not the same as
passing, and today produced two separate bugs of exactly that shape (#3414,
and the smoke-web skip).

All three images now promote together or not at all. They are one stack:
build.yml already refuses to publish a :dev web image beside a stale :dev ml
because the mismatch only surfaces as a runtime failure, and a refresh that
published ml while withholding web would be that same trap reached through the
gate. Stated plainly in the job comment: the gate covers web only, so ml and
agent are held to web's verdict rather than their own. That is the
conservative direction, not equivalent evidence, and should not be read as if
it were.

Three near-identical promote steps collapsed into one loop. A partial failure
now says which images moved and that the state is inconsistent, rather than
leaving that to be inferred — the promote is idempotent and the candidates are
still published, so the instruction is simply to re-run.

Also removed the now-dead `promote` output from the ml and agent reuse steps.
Only build-web's is read (as outputs.candidate); two more copies nothing
consults is the kind of thing that reads as load-bearing a year later.

The install path milestone 328 wrote produces a web container that exits on
boot. entrypoint.sh runs alembic, then app construction raises:

  MissingCredentialKey: Fernet key file not found at
  /images/secrets/credential_key.b64. For first-time setup, set
  CURATOR_BOOTSTRAP_NEW_KEY=1.

That variable appeared in no README, no .env.example and no compose file —
only in backend/. So a stranger following the documented steps got an app
that does not start and an error with no context. Found by the milestone-362
smoke gate on its first real run (#3422).

The product behaviour stays exactly as it is. credential_crypto refuses to
mint a key because the 2026-06-02 audit found a partial restore — database
back, ./images/secrets lost — silently generating a fresh one and producing a
healthy-looking instance where every authenticated download failed AUTH_ERROR.
Failing fast is right; not saying so is the bug.

So: .env.example carries the variable in its own FIRST BOOT ONLY section with
the reasoning and an instruction to delete the line afterwards, and README's
First run leads with it, because "the app will not start" belongs before "the
ML worker downloads weights". Both say to back up ./images/secrets/ alongside
the database, which is the part that costs real data if it is learned late.

**compose had to change too, and this is the part that would have shipped a
second broken instruction.** A variable in `.env` is only used for ${...}
interpolation — it does not reach the container unless the service names it.
Telling people to set it in .env, without that, would have documented a step
that does nothing. Added to the shared app_env anchor, defaulted to empty so
the refusal still stands for everyone who has not opted in.

Not taken: auto-bootstrapping when the credential table is empty, which would
remove the manual step entirely and keep the audit's protection for restores.
That is the better product and it is a code change with a predicate that has
to be exactly right; this is the smallest correct fix, and #3422 stays open
for the other one.

Run 5296 was `smoke-web`'s first genuine execution. Checks 1 and 2 passed:
alembic built the schema from empty inside the image, all five apt binaries
resolved, and the application's own Thumbnailer produced JPEG, PNG-with-alpha,
WebP and an ffmpeg video frame against the image's libraries. Check 3 failed,
and the trap's log dump said exactly why:

  MissingCredentialKey: Fernet key file not found at
  /images/secrets/credential_key.b64. For first-time setup, set
  CURATOR_BOOTSTRAP_NEW_KEY=1.

That is the product being right. credential_crypto refuses to mint a key
unless someone opts in, because the 2026-06-02 audit found a partial restore
(DB back, /images/secrets/ lost) silently generating a fresh one and leaving a
working-looking system where every authenticated download failed AUTH_ERROR.

It is also a first-run blocker for milestone 328, filed as #3422: the variable
appears in no README, no .env.example and no compose file, so the install path
that milestone just finished writing produces a container that exits on boot.
Not fixed here — the fix trades safety against friction and is the operator's
call.

Two defects in the gate itself, both surfaced by the same run:

- A throwaway CI instance IS first-time setup, so it now passes
  CURATOR_BOOTSTRAP_NEW_KEY=1. The check was asserting a condition no fresh
  container can satisfy.

- The health loop polled a dead container for 3m35s. Docker had already
  recycled its IP, so the replies were a baffling mix of connection-refused
  and 5s timeouts from whatever took the address next. It now checks
  `.State.Running` each iteration and fails immediately with the container's
  log. The trap had the real answer the whole time; this stops burying it
  under four minutes of noise.

Also corrected a message claiming a 120s budget: 60 iterations of up to 5s
connect plus 2s sleep is nearer seven minutes.

Run 5290 dispatched a refresh. Everything worked: the guard fired, the build
published the candidate, the promote pointed :latest at it. And `smoke-web`
reported conclusion "skipped", with no steps and no log.

Its condition was `if: env.IS_REFRESH == 'true'`. The env context is available
to STEP conditions and step bodies but never to a job's own `if:`, and an
unresolvable context there evaluates to empty rather than erroring. So the
gate skipped itself, silently, on the one run that existed to exercise it.

Second silent-skip of this family today, after #3414. Same shape both times:
something evaluated false, nothing failed, and the run reported success. It is
worth naming the pattern — on this pipeline, "green" and "ran" are different
claims, and the steps' own conclusions are the only place the difference shows.

Fixed by keying off a job output rather than re-deriving the trigger:
build-web now exposes the reuse step's `promote` decision as `outputs.candidate`
and smoke-web consumes it. That is better than duplicating the expression:
it is the same single decision the build, the XPI download and the promote all
take already — build.yml's own "one decision drives everything downstream" —
and it asserts the thing smoke-web actually depends on, that a candidate was
published, rather than restating the reason one would be.

Milestone 362 step 3. This is the gate the weekly base refresh never had.

`ci.yml` cannot be that gate, and the reason matters more than the fix. Its
lanes run on ci-python:3.14 and install requirements.txt — a base refresh
changes neither, so all five stay green through a bump that breaks the product.
What a refresh re-resolves is the Dockerfile's apt layer:

    ffmpeg unar libpq5 postgresql-client zstd megatools
    libjpeg62-turbo libwebp7 libpng16-16 ca-certificates

Unpinned, every build, and nothing else in this repo looks at it. That line is
the dependency creep; it is also precisely what the test suite structurally
cannot observe, since the suite never runs inside the image and the image
carries no tests and no pytest.

So `smoke-web` runs the CANDIDATE IMAGE against real service containers:

  1. `alembic upgrade head` on an empty database — the image's own libpq and
     psycopg, and the same call entrypoint.sh makes before it serves anything,
     so a failure here is a failure to boot.
  2. The apt binaries, then the application's own `Thumbnailer` — JPEG, PNG
     with alpha, WebP, and a video frame through ffmpeg. `Thumbnailer` needs no
     database and no app context, so the check exercises real product code
     rather than a proxy for it. `ffmpeg -version` exiting 0 would pass while a
     codec removal broke every thumbnail in the library.
  3. The web role boots and answers /api/health.

Every failure names the package it implicates. This fires on a Sunday,
unattended, about a change nobody made deliberately — "assertion failed" a week
later teaches nobody anything.

The script is piped over stdin rather than bind-mounted: the workspace is a
docker volume belonging to the job's own container, so a host bind of $PWD does
not resolve for a sibling. Container logs are dumped only on failure, and the
trap re-exits with the real status rather than the status of `docker rm`.

Deliberately NOT gating the promote yet — that is step 4. Landing the gate and
the thing it gates together would mean the first time anyone saw this job run
would also be the first time it could stop a publish.

The refresh lever did not work, and the way it did not work is the point.

Run 5270 dispatched with refresh=true. Its log:

  expression '(github.event_name == 'schedule'
               || github.event.inputs.refresh == 'true') && 'true' || 'false''
    evaluated to '%!t(string=false)'
  trigger: event=workflow_dispatch IS_REFRESH='false' BUILD_REF='refs/heads/dev'
  trigger: raw inputs refresh='true' force_build='false'

The input arrived as true and the comparison still said false. `type: boolean`
delivers a real boolean, and GitHub expression semantics cast operands to
numbers when their types differ — so `true == 'true'` compares 1 against NaN.
My comment on the previous commit asserted the opposite, that Forgejo delivers
inputs as strings, and asserted it without checking.

The run went GREEN with every step skipped, because a refresh that evaluates
false is indistinguishable from an ordinary push. A lever that silently does
nothing is worse than no lever: it would have been trusted.

Normalised through format(), which is representation-independent — a boolean
true and a string 'true' both render 'true'. That is also why force_build was
never bitten: it passes its raw value into an env var and compares in the
shell, where everything is a string already. format() buys the same thing at
expression level, which is where a step `if:` needs the answer.

The diagnostic from the previous commit stays. It is what turned this from a
guess into a measurement, and it is the only thing that would catch the same
class of failure next time.

The refresh dispatch on run 5265 went green with every step skipped: the
main-only guard did not fire, checkout took dev, and the reuse step read
IS_REFRESH as false. So both workflow-level expressions evaluated false while
the identical accessor works for force_build, which compares its value in the
shell rather than in an expression.

That is a guess until it is measured, and the failure is silent by
construction — a refresh that evaluates false behaves exactly like an ordinary
push and reports success. This prints the raw input beside the normalised
value in the step that already exists to say what a run derived, so the two
disagreeing is visible rather than inferred.

Milestone 362, enabling step 2's verification and everything after it.

The weekly refresh was testable once a week. That is not a cadence anything
can be developed against, and milestone 362's whole point is a gate — which
has to be watched rejecting something before anyone can believe it is wired
up. So `refresh` joins `force_build` as a dispatch input, on the same
reasoning that added that one (#3252: confirm #3190 was gone rather than wait
for it to recur).

Adding it meant confronting that "is this a refresh?" was asked in five
places and spelled five ways: `github.event_name == 'schedule'` in an `if:`,
`$GITHUB_EVENT_NAME` in one shell, an `EVENT:` env passed into another, and a
bare expression on `pull:`. Five spellings of one fact is how half of them
come to disagree once somebody adds a sixth trigger — which is precisely what
this commit is. So it is derived once at the top, next to BUILD_REF, which
already exists for exactly this reason on exactly this question.

String comparison, not boolean: Forgejo delivers dispatch inputs as strings,
so `inputs.refresh` is 'true'/'false' and `&&` on it would read the string
'false' as truthy.

**A constraint this makes visible, which pre-dates it.** A refresh checks out
`main` (BUILD_REF) while running the workflow definition from the branch that
triggered it — the cron registers from the default branch. So dev's workflow
builds main's source, and dev's workflow cannot depend on anything main's
tree does not have yet. It does now: the reuse step calls `artifacts.sh
epoch`, which lands on main with this batch. Until then a refresh dispatch
fails loudly at that call, which is the right failure — the alternative is
tolerating a missing epoch and silently rebuilding #3265 into every refresh.

Milestone 362 step 2. Structural: it creates a moment between "built" and
"published" for step 3's gate to occupy. No behaviour change.

A refresh rebuilds against freshly resolved base images, and the web image's
runtime is a line of UNPINNED Debian packages — ffmpeg, libjpeg62-turbo,
libpq5, megatools — re-resolved on every build. Nothing in ci.yml can see
that: its lanes run on ci-python:3.14 and install requirements.txt, and a base
bump changes neither. So refreshed bytes need proving before :latest names
them, and proving needs somewhere to stand.

On a push nothing changes: build_ref IS channel_ref, promote is false, and the
build writes the channel tag directly the way it always has. On the schedule
the build writes :refresh-candidate — one moving ref per image, overwritten in
place, holding a build nobody is told to pull. That is the shape rule 145
already allows for :buildcache, not the per-build tag family 318 withdrew.

Both values are decided in the reuse step beside `hit`, because that step
already owns "what does this job do" (build.yml's own rule, at the force
branch). A promote condition derived somewhere else could disagree with the
tag the build actually wrote.

**The promote is a manifest PUT, not `imagetools create`.** That distinction is
the whole risk in this change. `imagetools create` wraps its source in an
index, and an indexed channel tag is the one thing this pipeline cannot
survive: `.Image.Config.Labels` does not resolve through an index, so the
fc.revision the reuse check reads back would come up empty, every later push
would miss and rebuild, and nothing would go red. That is #3183, observed on
run 4751 — reuse worked exactly once and the only symptom was the bill. The
repoint step already excludes its own source tag for this reason; a promote
that re-introduced the wrap through another door would undo that care.

A manifest PUT is what "make this tag name that image" means at the registry:
same bytes, same media type, identical digest, no layer transfer. It reads the
result back and fails if the tag does not name what was just written — a PUT
that 2xx'd and landed something else is exactly the silent-and-plausible
failure this pipeline keeps producing. Every call carries a deadline (rule
156); a registry that stops answering must fail the step, not hang the weekly
refresh until the job times out.

Promote is UNCONDITIONAL today, deliberately. Gating it before the gate exists
would leave the refresh building something and publishing nothing for as long
as this milestone takes. Step 4 wraps it in the smoke suite's verdict.

Not yet verified on the refresh path — that needs a scheduled run, and the
lever to trigger one on demand is the next commit. This one is verified by the
push path being untouched.

Milestone 362 step 1, closing #3265's root cause.

The weekly base refresh rewrote all three `:latest` tags on 2026-08-30 with
nothing changed in any of them. Not a cache miss — run 4934's log shows every
content step CACHED and both bases resolved to unchanged pinned digests.
buildkit stamps the image config with the wall clock of the build, so
identical layers get republished under a new config blob and therefore a new
manifest digest.

The cost is not storage, it is meaning: `:latest` moved on a calendar, so a
digest change stopped being evidence that anything was different. That is the
one thing a digest is any use for, and it is load-bearing here — the reuse
check, the `:c-<sha>` rollback story and any future redeploy signal all rest
on it.

SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH normalises `created` and the history timestamps, so the same
source produces the same config bytes and the same digest, and pushing it is a
registry no-op.

The value is routed through artifacts.sh's existing `newest()` rather than
taken from git separately. `revision`, `version` and now `epoch` are three
fields of ONE lookup, so they cannot drift into naming different commits — a
divergence that would stamp an image reproducibly against one commit while it
reported being another, with both values looking perfectly well-formed. Note
#3127 §2 is the record of what a second clock costs; this adds a view, not a
clock.

Also corrected: the build step comment and ci-requirements.md both described
the churn as current behaviour with the fix as a "likely" future. They now
describe what the file does.

Tests pin the property the fix depends on, not the fix: epoch is the same
commit version names, in both renderings including the extension's unpadded
one, and it does not move between two calls on one checkout. A future
refactor that gave epoch its own `git log` would pass every other test in
that file.

Not yet verified end to end — proving it needs two consecutive refreshes to
land on the same digest, which is the next thing, and is the step #3265 exists
because nobody did last time.

Step 7 needs a release that reads as "what is FabledCurator and how do I run
it". What the script would actually have published is "changes since
v26.06.04.0" over 533 commits, truncated to 200 — a release page whose first
screen is the internal build-out that milestone 328 exists to stop shipping,
addressed to a reader who has never seen this project.

Two causes, fixed separately.

**A pre-convention tag is history, not a predecessor.** The 28 `v26.*` tags
were kept when their releases were deleted, so `--match v*` walks ancestry
straight back to one of them. Reachable is not comparable: nobody has run
v26.06.04.0 and its release page no longer exists to compare against. The
match is now `v[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9].*` — rule 148's shape, which is exactly
the set of tags naming a release a reader could have been running.

**With that narrowed, the first rule-148 tag reaches no predecessor**, and the
old fallback — diff against the whole history — is worse than the problem it
replaced. A release with no predecessor now renders the product overview and
no commit list at all.

The overview is READ OUT OF README.md between `<!-- overview:start -->` and
`<!-- overview:end -->`, not written into the script, for the same reason the
changelog is derived: two hand-maintained descriptions of one product drift
and nothing ever catches it. The release page and the repo front page are one
source. Missing markers are reported as a note and publish anyway, on
cross_checks()'s reasoning — the release is still the useful object.

Every later release goes back to being a changelog, which is what note #3127
§5 says a release is for. MAX_COMMITS still guards the case it now guards:
two real releases far enough apart that the list stops being readable.

Also corrected while marking up the README: "Importing — ingests an existing
library from disk" was still advertising the folder-import feature that
3590c47 documented as deliberately retired. Replaced with what FC actually
does with what arrives — content-hash dedup, sidecar metadata, provenance.

Tests: the two that asserted the old no-predecessor behaviour are rewritten
rather than left; synthetic repos now carry their own copy of the script,
since the overview resolves relative to `__file__` (correct in production,
where release.yml checks out the tag) and would otherwise have every fixture
silently quoting FabledCurator's real README.

Two unrelated things, both found while closing out milestone 328.

**Folder import (#3367).** The operator's call, this session: the
import-from-file surface was abandoned on purpose and is not coming back —
"it has its own complexities that we didn't need." The README and the
compose comment both described the missing button as a rough edge with a
tracking issue, which promised a fix that is not coming. Both now say the
retirement is the decision, name Subscriptions as the supported way to fill
a new install, and describe /api/import/trigger as an unsupported escape
hatch for anyone who wants to script one.

**The CI readiness probe.** ci.yml's integration job and baseline.yml both
waited for Postgres with `(echo > /dev/tcp/$PG_IP/5432)`. Those steps run
under `sh -e` — act's default shell — where /dev/tcp is not a magic path but
a filename that does not exist. The probe could therefore never succeed: run
18035, a GREEN run, spends 05:20:53 → 05:22:53 in that loop and exits it by
exhaustion, not by connecting. Every integration run has been paying a flat
120s for a check that established nothing, and proceeding regardless.

Replaced with a socket connect in python (present in the image, no package
needed), and exhausting the budget is now a named failure instead of a
silent fall-through — rule 156.

FC has no login — no User model, no session auth, nothing. That was a
deliberate call for a single-operator tool and it stays (operator, this
session), but it was nowhere in the docs, and the app stores live Patreon /
SubscribeStar / Pixiv session cookies on accounts that carry a payment
method. Anyone standing this up from the README could reasonably have put it
behind a TLS-terminating proxy and considered it handled.

So the no-auth posture is now stated three times, in the three places someone
decides where to bind the port: README has a "Before you expose it" section
above the install instructions, .env.example explains why there is no auth
variable in it, and the compose header says it before the first service.

SECURITY.md claimed the opposite. It listed "a multi-user sharing ACL —
instances can be shared" among the things worth protecting; there are no
accounts to share between. That was rule 47 applied to a codebase that does
not implement it, and it would have told a researcher FC holds a boundary it
does not. Replaced with the real posture, including that TLS without an
authenticating layer in front changes nothing.

Also corrected, all of it stale rather than wrong-at-the-time:

- EXTENSION_API_KEY was dead config. config.py read it into a field nothing
  consumed; the real key is generated into app_setting on first use and
  managed in the UI. Removed from config.py, compose and .env.example.
- .env.example pointed at docs/superpowers/specs/… — there is no docs/ dir —
  and described the extension key as "lands in FC-3", closed 2026-05-21.
- The /import mount comment described an FC-5 ImageRepo migration run from
  "Settings → Maintenance → Legacy migration", a surface with no frontend.
- README said the extension installs from Settings → Maintenance. It is on
  Subscriptions → Settings.

README is now split: running FC above the line, developing FC below it, with
requirements, first run, the extension, upgrading and troubleshooting on the
running side. First run documents the one real gap it found — a new installer
with a library on disk has no button to import it, only POST
/api/import/trigger, because the manual-scan UI was retired 2026-07-02 when
that stopped mattering for an established install. Filed as #3367.

Integration caught it: 36 tests failing with NoResultFound, all on
_system_tag(db, "banner") and its siblings. 0075 seeds three hygiene
system tags — wip, banner, editor screenshot — and the first version of
the baseline carried only the two settings singletons.

This is the same defect class the baseline's own docstring warns about,
which I then walked into anyway. The reason is worth recording: my scan
for data statements used a regex requiring INSERT to sit immediately
after the opening quote, so it saw

    op.execute("INSERT INTO ml_settings (id) VALUES (1)")

and missed 0075, which builds the statement through sa.text() across
several lines with bound parameters. The narrow pattern found two of
three seeds and reported itself complete.

The wider scan — grep for insert/bulk_insert across every revision in
725bf15 — turns up six data-writing migrations, and they separate
mechanically:

  INSERT ... VALUES (literals)     = SEED.     Product data. Carry it.
    0002 import_settings, 0003 ml_settings, 0075 system tags
  INSERT ... SELECT ... FROM tbl   = BACKFILL. Derives from existing
    rows, inserts nothing on an empty database, correctly omitted.
    0034 artist_visit, 0040 and 0047 series_chapter

That rule is now in the docstring, because the next person collapsing a
chain needs the rule more than they need the answer.

0075's adopt-before-insert guard is kept as WHERE NOT EXISTS. It cannot
fire on the empty database this file runs against — it existed because an
operator might already have hand-tagged `wip` — but it makes the
statement re-runnable for free.

Worth stating plainly: baseline.yml passed on the version without these
rows, and would pass again. It compares schema, and a baseline missing
every seed still produces a byte-identical schema. The integration suite
is what caught this, which is the argument for the first-run check that
#3271 should carry.

89 files and 6,300 lines become one file of 807. Nothing about the
resulting schema changes; what goes away is the requirement that a new
installation replay our development history to arrive at it.

revision = "0089", down_revision = None. That pairing IS the migration
strategy for existing installs, not a detail of it: a deployed database
already has alembic_version = '0089' from running the real 0089, so
alembic reads the version table, sees head reached, and does nothing. No
stamp is required — which matters, because `alembic stamp` writes a
version string without validating anything about the schema it is writing
it against, and a wrong stamp is indistinguishable from a right one until
the next migration fails. An empty database runs the file and records
0089. Both paths converge. The next migration is 0090, as it would have
been; the numbering is continuous across the collapse on purpose.

Autogenerate produced nearly all of this unaided, which was NOT true of
the first attempt — that one was reverted because the generator silently
dropped eleven indexes and three uniqueness guarantees. #3275 put those
on the models first, so the HNSW index with its opclass, the COALESCE
expression index, the partial uniques, 107 server_defaults and the enum
CHECKs are all emitted now. Doing the reconciliation before the squash,
rather than after, is what made this work.

Hand-added, because none of it can live in a model:

  * CREATE EXTENSION vector / tsm_system_rows (0001, 0004) — database
    objects, not table metadata.
  * The pgvector import. Autogenerate writes qualified
    pgvector.sqlalchemy.vector.VECTOR references without importing the
    package, so its own output cannot run (run 4988).
  * THE TWO SEED ROWS. 0002 and 0003 did not only build schema — each
    inserted a settings singleton, and nothing in the app ever creates
    them: ImportSettings.load() and MLSettings.load() are
    select(...).scalar_one(), which RAISES NoResultFound rather than
    returning None. A models-only baseline would leave both tables empty
    and crash a fresh install on first settings access, while
    baseline.yml reported a perfect schema match. Only running the app
    against a new database finds that.

Not carried over: 0023's DELETE FROM tag and 0047's series deletes, which
are historical cleanups operating on rows an empty database lacks.

downgrade() raises. A baseline's downgrade is "drop every table", which
is a data-loss event wearing a migration as a disguise; offering it as
one invites someone to run it. Restore from a backup.

Also removed, per the plan: the 10 test_migration_*.py files (they assert
intermediate states and backfills that no longer exist — a test that a
column exists is already the model tests' job) and
backend/app/utils/artist_backfill.py, whose only importer was 0008.
Verified no other consumer anywhere in backend/ or tests/.

baseline.yml changes with it. chain_ref now DEFAULTS to 725bf15, since
the tree no longer carries a chain to compare against — that pinned
commit is the last one that does.

And the CheckConstraint repair is removed, because it never fired. I
added it claiming autogenerate re-doubles a constraint name on the round
trip and asserted in b979062 that it was "still correct and still
needed". It is not: autogenerate wraps names in op.f(), which marks them
already-formatted and blocks the convention from re-applying. Tested
against the real candidate line — the regex matches nothing. What
actually fixed the mismatch was 0088's renames alone. The doubling is a
real hazard, but of hand-writing a pre-prefixed name, not of the
generator; the comment asserting otherwise was worse than the dead code
under it.

The header comment is rewritten for the same reason — it described 87
revisions, and claimed the HNSW index could not be expressed in a model,
which #3275 disproved. It now also states plainly what this check CANNOT
see: it compares schema, so a green run means the schema is right, not
that the baseline is.

docker-compose.yml pinned :dev on all five app services — web, worker,
scheduler, maintenance-long, ml-worker. The README documents
`docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d` as the production path, and
-f means "use only this file", skipping the override and its build:
directives. So Compose pulled image:, and image: was the rolling
development channel. The documented way to install this product shipped
development builds.

It went unnoticed for a structural reason rather than a careless one:
nobody who works on the project takes that path. The operator deploys
from a swarm stack file; contributors get docker-compose.override.yml,
which sets build: for all five services, and build: wins over image:. The
broken path is reachable only by a stranger following the README — which
is exactly the audience that did not exist until now.

:latest, per rule 147: main IS production. It is also what the agent
stack (agent/docker-compose.yml) already pinned, so this makes the two
stacks agree rather than introducing a new convention.

Both paths verified with `docker compose config`, which merges and prints
without starting anything:

  dev path        — build: present on all five, image: not pulled
  -f production   — 0 build: directives, five :latest images resolved

Also checked the base file for anything a stranger could not satisfy:
no host-absolute volume paths, no operator-specific port bindings, no
device mappings. The tag was the only defect in the consumer path.

The comment on web.image is deliberately long (rule 32). A line reading
:latest inside a file a developer is debugging with is exactly the line
someone flips back to :dev to test something and then commits, and the
consequence — strangers silently installing bleeding edge — is invisible
to everyone who works here.

The repo had no LICENSE, which meant all rights reserved by default:
nobody could legally run or modify it, and "public availability" was a
contradiction no amount of install documentation could fix. This is the
hard blocker in milestone 328; everything else in it is quality.

AGPL-3.0, at the operator's explicit choice, for the reason the operator
gave: this should not become something another party runs as a hosted
proprietary service. Section 13 is what makes it fit — for a self-hosted
web app, distribution otherwise never happens, so the GPL's obligation
would never actually bite. AGPL reaches the case that matters here:
running a MODIFIED copy as a service for others.

LICENSE is the FSF text fetched from gnu.org and verified byte-identical
(34,523 bytes, 661 lines, §13 "Remote Network Interaction" present), not
retyped. README's old "Personal project; use at your own discretion" said
nothing legally and is replaced with what the licence actually asks —
including the part worth being clear about, that running an unmodified
copy for yourself carries no obligation whatsoever.

SECURITY.md names what this software actually holds, because that is what
makes a report serious here: live third-party session cookies for
accounts with payment methods attached, the extension API key, the
multi-user sharing ACL, and arbitrary downloaded media that gets decoded
and fed to models. It also states the plain-HTTP posture up front, so
"served over HTTP" and "no HSTS" are understood as the documented design
rather than filed as findings.

There is no private disclosure channel yet, so the reporting instruction
is to open an issue containing NOTHING but the fact that a report exists,
and wait for a private contact. Awkward on purpose: an issue tracker is
public the moment it is written to, and every self-hosted instance stays
vulnerable until its operator can update. Worth replacing with a real
contact address — that decision is the operator's, since it publishes one.

CONTRIBUTING records the two things that actually catch people: ruff's
order-by-type import sorting, and that a model change and its migration
belong in the same commit. The second is not style — the models and the
chain silently diverged for a long time (#3275) and autogenerate was
unsafe as a result.

Pre-publication scan, since the repo is about to get attention:
.env.example is placeholders only (`changeme_*`), `.env` is gitignored
with an `!.env.example` exception, no credential-shaped literals are
committed, and there are no private IPs or operator home paths. The only
hostnames are the project's own forge, which is public by design.

A structural sweep of the deployed schema, run AFTER 0088 got the models
and the chain to exact agreement. That agreement is what 0088 achieved,
and it is worth naming what it does not prove: a models-vs-chain diff
shows the two describe the same schema, not that the schema is right.
Everything here was wrong in BOTH.

The one that matters: image_tag has PRIMARY KEY (image_record_id, tag_id)
and no other index, so tag_id is unindexed. That is the gallery's tag
filter (tag_query.py builds `image_tag.c.tag_id == tid`) and the ON
DELETE CASCADE from tag, both scanning the largest table in the schema.
Six more FKs were unindexed on smaller tables; presentation_review.tag_id
also CASCADEs.

Dropped, on the other side: ix_image_record_sha256 was an exact duplicate
of the index uq_image_record_sha256 already builds — two btrees on the
same column of the highest-insert-rate table. The other six are
single-column indexes a later composite superseded without the narrow one
being retired; a btree on (a,b) already serves lookups on a.

0088 deliberately taught the models to declare BOTH sha256 indexes so
they would describe reality. This changes the reality instead, and the
models change with it — otherwise the next baseline.yml run reintroduces
exactly the drift 0088 removed.

CONCURRENTLY throughout, so building the image_tag index does not hold an
ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock over every write for the duration. The cost is that
the migration cannot run in a transaction and so is not atomic: every
statement is IF NOT EXISTS / IF EXISTS, making a re-run after a partial
failure safe. The docstring carries the query for finding an INVALID
index left by an interrupted CONCURRENTLY build.

What the sweep found clean, for the record: all 43 tables have a primary
key; all 51 FKs declare an explicit ON DELETE, so none silently blocks a
delete; the three enum CHECKs match the code that writes them (rule 36).

ruff's isort runs with order-by-type, which sorts ALL_CAPS names ahead of
CamelCase ones, so `JSON` belongs at the head of the list rather than
between `Integer` and `String`.

Two of these (backup_run.py, post.py) have been failing lint since
5e1996e — I did not check the push CI after that commit, only the
baseline workflow I had dispatched, so ci.yml has been red on dev across
5e1996e, ed2b1ad and d044e93.

Run 5029 confirmed the four renames landed and surfaced two I had missed:
external_link's host and status CHECKs are doubled the same way. They did
not show in run 5026's diff because BOTH sides produced the doubled form
back then — external_link.py pre-prefixed its names, so the models
matched the chain's mistake. Switching all six models to bare names is
what exposed the two the migration did not cover.

The list in the file now comes from matching ck_(\w+?)_ck_\1_ against the
chain's own pg_dump, rather than from reading migrations by eye. Reading
by eye is what missed these, in the same way it earlier missed a UNIQUE
constraint sitting two lines above the index being looked at.

Run 5026 got the models-vs-chain diff to 7 lines. Three findings, and one
of them reverses an assumption I made in the previous commit.

The doubled CHECK names are what the DATABASE has, not what the generator
invented. base.py's convention is ck_%(table_name)s_%(constraint_name)s,
which — unlike uq/fk/ix — applies even to a constraint that already has a
name, so four migrations that passed an already-prefixed name got it
prefixed twice:

    ck_import_settings_ck_import_settings_singleton
    ck_ml_settings_ck_ml_settings_singleton
    ck_post_ck_post_translation_override
    ck_tag_ck_tag_fandom_requires_character

The workflow repair added last commit is still correct and still needed —
autogenerate really does re-double a name on the round trip — but it was
making the MODELS side clean against a chain that is dirty. The
comment in ml_settings.py claiming its bare name "matches migration 0003"
was simply false; 0003 produces the doubled form.

Nothing reads a CHECK constraint by name, so this has never done harm.
But it is precisely the development-era residue the collapsed baseline
exists to leave behind, and a public schema should not ship it — so 0088
renames the deployed constraints and all six models now declare bare
names. RENAME CONSTRAINT is catalog-only: no scan, no rewrite, no
revalidation, which is why this is safe on post and tag. Guarded on
pg_constraint scoped by conrelid, so it is a no-op on a database built
from the models.

ix_tag_fandom_id showed as a difference only because chain_ref was pinned
to 0a5bbe8, which predates 0088 — the comparison was measuring the models
against a chain missing the migration that closes the gap. chain_ref now
defaults to blank, meaning "the chain in this ref". Pin it to a commit
only after the collapse, when the tree no longer carries the revisions.

Closes the residue the first reconciliation pass left, and corrects a
factual error I put into the record.

sha256 was NOT missing a uniqueness guarantee. I read
`op.create_index("ix_image_record_sha256", ...)` at 0001 line 151 and
concluded duplicates were possible, without reading line 149 two lines
above it:

    sa.UniqueConstraint("sha256", name="uq_image_record_sha256"),

Uniqueness has held since the initial schema. The database expresses it
as a CONSTRAINT plus a separate non-unique lookup index; the model said
`unique=True, index=True`, which is one UNIQUE index under a different
name. Same guarantee, different objects — which is exactly why the two
schemas did not line up. The model now declares both objects. No DDL.
0088's docstring, which repeated the claim, is corrected in place.

Two real divergences, both the MODEL over-claiming:

  * source: uq_source_artist_platform_url (alembic 0010) was declared
    nowhere in the models — source.py had no __table_args__ at all — so
    autogenerate would have proposed DROPPING it.
  * head_metrics_snapshot.tag_id: model said NOT NULL, 0060 created it
    nullable. Left nullable; the FK already cascades.

Seven constraints renamed to what the chain actually created, rather than
what base.py's naming convention renders: uq_series_page_image,
uq_series_chapter_anchor_page, fk_series_chapter_anchor_page,
fk_image_record_artist_id, fk_image_provenance_from_attachment, and the
two hand-shortened fk_tsr_* names from 0003.

Float server_defaults now mirror their own migration, per column. The
chain is MIXED: a plain string renders DEFAULT '0.90'::double precision,
sa.text() renders DEFAULT 0.90, and the migrations used both. Seven
columns take text(); the rest stay strings. Two literals also disagreed
outright — process_{auto_apply,conflict}_threshold said 0.9/0.5 against
the migration's 0.90/0.50.

baseline.yml gains two things. A repair for a SECOND generator defect in
the same class as the missing pgvector import: base.py's ck convention
contains %(constraint_name)s, so it applies even to a NAMED
CheckConstraint — autogenerate writes the already-rendered name into the
migration and running it applies the convention again, yielding
ck_ml_settings_ck_ml_settings_singleton. That is round-tripping damage,
not a claim the models make, so it is undone rather than counted.

And the diff now runs twice. Column ORDER differs permanently between a
schema built by 87 ADD COLUMNs and one built in a single shot — the
operator's database keeps chain order forever, a fresh install gets model
order — so a check that failed on it could never pass. The second pass
SORTS column lines within each CREATE TABLE instead of deleting them,
which cannot hide a column present on one side only, or one whose type,
nullability or default differs. Ordered diff is reported as information;
the order-insensitive one is the verdict.

mode: models applies the raw autogenerated candidate, and it cannot run:

  NameError: name 'pgvector' is not defined

Alembic emits the qualified reference without emitting the import.
Observed on run 4988, which turns this from a thing I predicted by
reading the candidate into a thing demonstrated by executing it.

Repaired in the workflow rather than counted as a schema difference: the
comparison asks whether the MODELS describe the schema, and this is a
defect in the generator. The same fixup has to be applied by hand to any
baseline generated this way, which is why it is item 4 on the collapsed
baseline's hand-written list.

baseline.yml only ever compared migrations against migrations. The
question #3275 exists because nobody had ever asked the other one: does
a database built from the MODELS match the one the chain produces?

`mode: models` answers it. It applies the candidate autogenerated from
the models instead of this tree's revisions, and diffs that against the
chain. A clean run means --autogenerate is trustworthy again, which it
demonstrably has not been: against the pre-reconciliation models it
would have proposed dropping eleven indexes and two uniqueness
guarantees.

The two extensions are created by hand in that mode. They are database
objects rather than table metadata, so no model can carry them — their
absence is outside what this comparison asks about, and silently
tolerating it is correct rather than a filter that hides a defect.

Also declares the HNSW index on the ImageRecord model. SQLAlchemy can
express an hnsw access method with an operator class
(postgresql_using + postgresql_ops), so there was never a reason for it
to live only in 0036. That removes the last item from the list of things
a generated baseline cannot reproduce, leaving only the two extensions.

Milestone 328's acceptance test compared a database built by the real
0001..0087 chain against one built from the models, and found ~130
places where they disagree. This closes them.

Almost all were the MODEL being wrong, so almost all of this is model
edits with no DDL — the database already had these things, nothing in it
changes, and no deploy is needed for this part:

* 92 columns gained server_default. The models carried Python-side
  `default=` only, so the ORM filled the value and the column had no
  database default. Anything inserting outside the ORM behaved
  differently from production.

* Eleven indexes that existed only in migrations are now declared:
  the three backup_run reporting indexes, the two date-ordered
  image_record browse indexes, import_task and presentation_review,
  and the three task_run history indexes. All use text() for their DESC
  ordering and postgresql_where for the partial one.

* Two UNIQUE indexes that autogenerate silently proposed DROPPING,
  because neither is expressible as a UniqueConstraint:
    uq_tag_name_kind_fandom  — an EXPRESSION index over
                               (name, kind, COALESCE(fandom_id, 0))
    uq_post_artist_external_id_null_source — PARTIAL, WHERE source_id
                               IS NULL
  post.py already had a comment describing the second one. The comment
  was right; nothing declared it.

* The two external_link enum CHECKs (host, status) — rule 36 territory,
  and absent from the model entirely.

* Two indexes were named explicitly. A bare index=True generated
  ix_tag_alias_canonical_tag_id where the database has
  ix_tag_alias_canonical, so autogenerate proposed a drop+create of an
  index that was already there under another name. Same for
  tag_suggestion_rejection.

Only ONE thing needed DDL, as 0088: tag.fandom_id is declared
index=True but no migration ever created that index.

Deliberately NOT here: image_record.sha256. The model says unique=True;
0001 created a plain index. Duplicates are possible today and the ORM
believes otherwise. The fix depends on whether duplicates already exist
— if they do, that is a dedupe decision, not a constraint — so it waits
on an answer about live data.

The real severity of #3275 is not the squash. It is that --autogenerate
has been unsafe on this project: run against the old models it would
have proposed dropping eleven indexes and two uniqueness guarantees.

Reconciling the models against the deployed schema needs the actual
pg_dump, not an inference from the unified diff. Parsing table context
out of diff hunks drops every table whose CREATE TABLE line falls
outside a hunk — it under-reported 81 columns across 13 tables when the
real figure spans more, missing artist, gpu_job, download_event and
external_link entirely.

Same checksummed-base64 transport as the candidate baseline, for the
same reason: a plain cat of a file this size was silently truncated
mid-line by the runner on run 4964.

bvandeusen 6959e1220c Revert "db: collapse alembic 0001..0087 into one baseline"
This reverts 2529b51. Not a retreat — a reordering, on the operator's
call, and the better sequence.

The squash's acceptance test (run 4971) found ~130 places where the ORM
models do not describe the deployed schema (#3275), including a
unique=True the database never had and two UNIQUE indexes that exist
only in migrations. Collapsing now would have baked all of that into the
one file a public installer starts from.

So: fix the drift first as ordinary migrations on the intact chain, let
the operator deploy so their database moves to the corrected head, and
only then collapse. The baseline is then generated from reconciled
models and reproduces a schema worth reproducing.

Nothing is lost by reverting. The baseline was never deployed, and
regenerating it after the fixes is strictly better than patching this
copy — it will come out of autogenerate correct rather than needing the
same hand-finishing twice.

87 revisions narrating this project's build-out become one file that
creates the schema in a single step. They cost nothing at runtime — all
86 upgrade steps ran in 0.2s (note #3260) — so this is a presentation
change, not a performance one: a new installer should not inherit our
development history to stand up a database.

Deleted: 87 revisions (6,052 lines), the 10 tests/test_migration_*.py
files (483 lines) that asserted intermediate states and backfills which
no longer exist, and backend/app/utils/artist_backfill.py — the only
live module a migration imported, with no other consumer anywhere. That
last one satisfies the operator's separate request to inline it into
0008 and delete the module; the squash removes both outright.

THE REVISION ID IS "0087", NOT "0001", ON PURPOSE. It is the id of the
last revision collapsed, so an existing database is already at head and
`alembic upgrade head` does nothing. The alternative is `alembic stamp`
against live data, and stamp validates NOTHING — it writes a version
string whether or not the schema matches, so a wrong baseline surfaces
later, via the next real migration, with no clean way back. This removes
that operation rather than making it safe. Future revisions run from
0088.

Four things are hand-written because SQLAlchemy metadata does not carry
them, and none fail at generation time:

  1. CREATE EXTENSION vector          — the VECTOR columns cannot be
     created without it, so it is ordered first in upgrade().
  2. CREATE EXTENSION tsm_system_rows — surfaces only when the random
     sample query runs.
  3. the HNSW index on image_record.siglip_embedding, raw SQL because
     create_index cannot express USING hnsw (... vector_cosine_ops).
     The quietest of the four: everything works, similarity search just
     stops using an index.
  4. import pgvector.sqlalchemy.vector — autogenerate EMITS
     pgvector.sqlalchemy.vector.VECTOR references without importing it,
     so the generated file dies with NameError on first run.

The candidate came out of CI (run 4967) as checksummed base64 rather
than a plain cat, because run 4964's cat was truncated mid-line inside a
column definition with the step still green — 29 tables instead of 42,
and it looked entirely plausible. Verified here: 56,582 bytes,
sha256 471acfca69c0…, 42 tables, 66 indexes, 42 drops.

NOT YET PROVEN against the old chain. baseline.yml does that, and it is
step 2's gate; this commit does not claim the schemas match.

Run 4964 passed the control (1121 normalised lines, schemas identical)
but its candidate print was silently truncated. `cat` of the ~33KB
generated file stopped mid-line inside

  sa.Column('mime', sa.String(length=128)

and the runner carried straight on to the next traced command with the
step still green. The captured text was 484 lines and 29 tables, and
looked entirely plausible — which is exactly what makes it dangerous:
a schema definition cut in half is still syntactically suggestive, and
nothing in the log says it was cut.

Now emitted as base64 at a fixed 120-column width, followed by a
sha256, a byte count and a base64 line count. Short lines instead of
long ones, and more importantly the receiving end can PROVE it got the
whole file rather than trusting that it did.

Also found in that output, and the reason the candidate could never
have been committed as-is: it references

  pgvector.sqlalchemy.vector.VECTOR(dim=1152)

for head_training_run.weights and image_record.siglip_embedding, but
autogenerate does not add the corresponding import. The file would die
with NameError on the first run. That is the fourth item on the list of
things the generator cannot be trusted with, alongside the two CREATE
EXTENSIONs and the HNSW index.

Run 4960 was the control — the chain compared against itself, which must
come back clean before a clean diff after the squash means anything. It
did its job and failed on both counts.

1. The harness is sound. Both dumps came back 1123 normalised lines and
   differed on EXACTLY two, the \restrict / \unrestrict pair that newer
   pg_dump emits to fence a dump against injection during restore. It is
   a fresh random nonce per invocation, so it differs by construction and
   is noise by definition. Now filtered — and the control is what
   licenses that filter: it was OBSERVED to be the only false positive
   rather than assumed to be one, which matters for a check whose whole
   value is that its normalisation does not hide a real difference.

2. The candidate-baseline step never ran. `if: github.event.inputs
   .generate == 'true'` on a `type: boolean` input silently evaluated
   false — no diagnostic, step skipped, job carried on. The same
   `github.event.inputs` typing quirk build.yml already works around for
   force_build.

   Rather than fight the input typing, the gate is now the tree itself:
   skip if alembic/versions holds one file. That is the real question
   anyway — there is nothing to generate once the chain is collapsed —
   and it cannot be silently wrong the way an unevaluated expression can.

Worth noting what the control also proved incidentally: the two schemas
were byte-identical across 1123 lines despite being built by separate
alembic runs into separate databases, so pg_dump's object ordering is
stable enough to diff directly and no sort normalisation is needed.

Milestone 328 step 1 needs a baseline generated from the models, and
step 2 must not stamp the operator's live database until that baseline
is proven to reproduce what the 87-revision chain produced. `alembic
stamp` validates nothing, so an unproven baseline fails silently now and
loudly later, on real data.

There is no local Python environment and rules 10/12 point away from
standing one up, so the comparison runs in CI, where a pgvector Postgres
is already built from the chain on every integration run and nothing is
at risk.

It builds two databases and diffs their pg_dump --schema-only output:
one from `alembic upgrade head` on the revisions read out of git at
`chain_ref`, one from the current tree. Reading the chain from git via a
worktree — rather than from the working tree — is what keeps this usable
AFTER the old revisions are deleted, so it is the proof for step 1 and
the pre-flight for step 2 rather than a one-shot script.

Both sides use `alembic upgrade head`, never metadata.create_all, per
rule 82 — and that rule's reasoning is exactly the hazard here.
`create_all` emits plain CREATE TABLE and skips everything else, which is
why the optional autogenerated candidate CANNOT be trusted as the answer.
Three things in this schema are invisible to SQLAlchemy metadata:

  CREATE EXTENSION vector           (0001)
  CREATE EXTENSION tsm_system_rows  (0004)
  the HNSW index on image_record.siglip_embedding, raw SQL because
    alembic's create_index cannot express USING hnsw (...)   (0036)

plus any CHECK constraint or server_default a migration added without the
model declaring it — 4 model files declare CheckConstraints against 6
migrations that touch them. The candidate is a starting point to hand
finish; the diff is what proves nothing was missed.

Results are printed to the job log rather than uploaded: ci-requirements
records that this runner cannot do actions/upload-artifact@v4+, and the
repo dropped the action entirely in 2026-05.

Run it first with the chain still present, as a control — the diff
compares the chain against itself and must come back clean. A clean diff
after the squash only means something if the harness was shown to be
capable of producing one beforehand.

Temporary. Delete once the baseline is stamped.

Step 4 asserted that when the base has not moved the refresh is "a ~13s
no-op that republishes nothing", and that this no-op was the point. The
first half is false and was written without being tested.

Run 4934, the first real fire: every content step reported CACHED and
both bases resolved to unchanged pinned digests, yet all three :latest
tags took a new manifest digest anyway.

  fabledcurator        4ea5265ba017 -> 380e504de0fa
  fabledcurator-ml     6e7cfc0c09fd -> 6b2eefc301d8
  fabledcurator-agent  44920e0af1f3 -> 54accbeb52ed

buildkit mints a fresh image config per run, so identical layers get
republished under a new config blob. Storage cost is trivial; the cost
that matters is that a :latest digest change stops meaning "something is
different", and :c-<sha> is handed a new manifest to diverge from every
Sunday for no reason.

Corrects the workflow comment (x3) and ci-requirements.md to say what
actually happens. Filed as #3265 with the candidate fixes; the likely one
is a deterministic SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH off the value artifacts.sh already
derives, which would make "same source, same version" into "same source,
same bytes".

The rest of step 4 verified clean on the same run: the guard passed
(HEAD is main (499720d), `git checkout -B main`) — so this runner DOES
evaluate the env context inside `with:` — the tag list was :latest alone
with no :c-<sha>, and the repoint step correctly found nothing to write.

BUILD_REF is read through the `env` context inside `with:`, which this
runner is not known to evaluate. `${{ steps.* }}` and `${{ secrets.* }}`
in `with:`/`env:` are proven here; `env` is not, and run 4915's checkout
log (`git checkout -B dev refs/remotes/origin/dev`) cannot tell an
honoured `refs/heads/dev` from an empty value falling back to the same
place — the two are indistinguishable on every path except the one that
matters.

If it does resolve empty, the weekly refresh checks out dev and pushes
its source to :latest, which is production. Every lane stays green and
the first symptom is production running code that was never merged.

So each of the four jobs now asserts its own checkout before doing
anything, gated on `github.event_name` — the `github` context is
demonstrably evaluated in `if:`, so the guard cannot be disabled by the
same uncertainty it covers. A red weekly job is an acceptable outcome;
shipping dev to production is not.

Skip-if-exists is keyed on our own source, so an artifact whose source
stops moving stops picking up base-image updates. `agent/` last changed
2026-07-17; every push since has correctly declined to rebuild it, which
also means it will serve that day's nvidia/cuda layers indefinitely.

A `schedule:` trigger, Sunday 06:00 UTC, away from CI-runner's Monday
security sweep so the two are never diagnosing each other.

#3154's blocking open question is dissolved rather than answered. It was
written when the identity was a `r-<revision>` TAG, and asked how the
next ordinary push could avoid repointing :latest back off the refresh.
Milestone 318 replaced that tag with a LABEL, and #3183 made the repoint
step exclude its source tag so the label stays readable. Excluding the
source is what also keeps a refresh from being undone: on the next main
push the reuse check hits, :latest is not rewritten, and the new :c-<sha>
is written FROM the refreshed :latest. To be verified by digest, not by
this argument.

Four decisions, each commented where it lives:

* It builds `main`, not the branch that triggered it. Forgejo registers a
  cron from the default branch — `dev` here — so a scheduled run arrives
  with github.ref on dev, and a refresh of :dev would be refreshing the
  one channel that is rebuilt constantly anyway. The ref is decided once
  in a top-level `env: BUILD_REF` that all four checkouts take. Deriving
  it per job would let the halves disagree: sign-extension would derive
  dev's extension version while build-web bundled main's, and the release
  download would 404 on a version that exists perfectly well.

* It publishes only the channel tag. :c-<sha> for main's HEAD already
  names the bytes that commit built; re-pushing it over refreshed layers
  would break the one tag rule 145 makes immutable, and it is the
  rollback unit — so the breakage would surface on the day somebody
  needed it. The repoint step needs no schedule case: the tag list is the
  channel tag alone, SOURCE is the only entry, it is excluded as always,
  and the step correctly does nothing.

* It bypasses reuse by construction, since it rebuilds the same source
  and fc.revision always matches. Checked in the reuse step beside
  force_build, so one decision still drives both the build and the
  repoint.

* `pull: true`, on the scheduled path only, is the actual mechanism. A
  moved base tag changes the FROM layer's cache key and everything above
  it rebuilds; an unmoved one is satisfied by the registry cache and the
  refresh is a ~13s no-op that republishes nothing. That no-op is the
  point — :latest should change when there is something new in it, not
  every Sunday. The known lag, left deliberately: an apt package update
  while the base tag stands still is not caught, and closing it needs
  no-cache: true, which buys weekly churn for it.

`cache-from`/`cache-to` on `<image>:buildcache`, `mode=max`, on all three
build steps. Closes the half of the driver change that step 1 left open.

Step 1 measured worse, not better, and that was expected but is worth stating
with numbers. Run 4896, first builds after moving to `docker-container`:

    build-web    3m44s   (cold baseline 2m23s)
    build-ml     3m49s   (cold baseline 3m20s)
    build-agent  11m12s  (cold baseline 9m26s)

The container driver gets a FRESH buildkit instance per job, so it has no
local layer store to fall back on — where the old docker driver at least
reused whatever the runner's dockerd happened to hold. That is why a registry
cache is the only cache this driver can have, and why step 1 on its own is a
regression rather than a win.

`mode=max` so intermediate stages cache too. The agent's two ~150s pip layers
and web's frontend-builder stage are the entire cost, and a min-mode cache
would drop exactly those.

A `:buildcache` tag is not the withdrawn tag scheme returning. Rule 145
narrowed against names NOTHING reads; this one is read by every build that
runs, is one moving ref per image rather than one per build, holds cache blobs
rather than a shippable artifact, and is overwritten in place rather than
accumulating. Closer to `:dev` than to the `:2026.8.28` tags 318 deleted — and
said so in the workflow, so it is not "cleaned up" by a later reader.

Expect the next build to be slower again, once: it is still cold AND now pays
the cache export. The measurement that matters is the one after that.

`workflow_dispatch` with a `force_build` boolean, honoured inside each of the
three reuse steps.

It exists because skip-if-exists made its own build path untestable. `agent/`
has not changed since 2026-07-17, so the agent build has correctly declined to
run on every push since — which also means #3190, whose whole symptom lives on
that path, cannot be reproduced on demand. Editing build.yml does not force a
build either, and that is deliberate: the workflow is not shipped bytes, so it
is in no artifact's path set, and putting it in one would re-version every
artifact for a comment change.

That is also why this lands before step 2 rather than after. Step 1 moved the
builds onto a container driver and turned attestations off; the claim that
`fc.revision` still reads back cannot be checked until something actually
builds under that driver. Run 4887 confirmed only the cheaper half — `Set up
buildx` succeeded on all three jobs, so the buildkit sibling container does
start against the mounted socket.

Details worth keeping:

* FORCE is checked in the reuse step, not in the build step's `if:`. The
  repoint step keys off `hit` too, and a force that bypassed only the build
  would leave the two disagreeing about what had happened.
* `github.event.inputs`, not the `inputs` context — release.yml already uses
  that form and it is the one this runner is known to evaluate. Read through
  env rather than interpolated into the run block, same as release.yml's TAG.
* One input, not one per artifact. Three booleans is an interface nobody
  remembers.

Adds `docker/setup-buildx-action@v3` to build-web, build-ml and build-agent,
and sets `provenance: false` / `sbom: false` on all three build-push steps.

Two open issues share one root, which is why this is one change:

* #3114 — the agent rebuilds a ~6.3 GB CUDA + torch image whenever the
  runner's local cache is cold, 9m26s against 7s warm. The default `docker`
  driver cannot export a registry cache at all, so the fix is unavailable
  until the driver moves. The cache itself is step 2, deliberately not here.
* #3190 — build-agent goes red AFTER a successful push, `No such image` from
  the local daemon. The leading candidate is the docker driver resolving
  image metadata against a local store a registry-direct push never filled.

The attestation flags are the load-bearing part. On the default driver they
were no-ops; on the container driver, build-push-action@v5 defaults provenance
to TRUE when pushing. Provenance attaches an attestation manifest, that makes
the pushed tag a manifest INDEX, and `.Image.Config.Labels` does not resolve
through an index — so the `fc.revision` label the reuse check reads off the
channel tag would come back `<none>` on every push. Every image would rebuild
forever, every lane would stay green, and the only symptom would be the bill.
Same failure as #3183, through a different door; note #3127 §4 records the
same shape for `platforms:`.

Unverified until CI says otherwise: these jobs run INSIDE a container against
a mounted docker socket, so the buildkit container is a sibling of the job
container rather than a child. That works over a socket mount and has never
been tried on this runner.

The gate is the SECOND dev push, not this one. The images currently published
were built by the old driver, so one `reuse: NOTE ... no readable fc.revision`
is expected now; what must not appear is a second one.

Missed in 2e01242. This module pinned zero-padded `YYYY.MM.DD.HHMM` for all
four artifacts, which is the family shape and was right until the extension
acquired a documented reason not to use it. Both assertions failed exactly as
written, on the value they were written to catch.

Rather than exempt the extension, the exception is pinned to the constraint
that justifies it:

* `test_version_is_zero_padded_calver` now covers the three padded artifacts.
* A new sibling covers the unpadded one against **AMO's own grammar** —
  `2026.08.29.0201` fails it, so a regression to padding fires immediately.
  Matching only `YYYY.M.D.HHMM` would not: on a date with no leading zeros the
  two renderings are the same string, so a padding regression would sit unseen
  until the first single-digit month, and surface as a burned AMO version
  rather than a red lane.
* `test_version_and_revision_describe_the_same_commit` compares NUMBERS, per
  rule 148's own definition of comparison — so one assertion covers both
  renderings and says the real thing: whatever the padding, the extension must
  denote exactly the value its own commit stamps. Exact-string equality is
  still asserted for everything not in AMO_UNPADDED, so the exception cannot
  quietly spread.

`1.0.<minutes since 2020>` -> `YYYY.M.D.HHMM` UTC, from the commit time of
the newest change to a packaged extension file. Same clock and same commit as
before; readable instead of opaque, and the same value the rest of the family
derives.

The hold on this step was two questions about AMO, and Mozilla's own docs
answer both:

    ^(0|[1-9][0-9]{0,8})([.](0|[1-9][0-9]{0,8})){0,3}$

  1. four all-numeric segments -> ACCEPTED ({0,3} more after the first).
  2. leading zeros              -> REJECTED. A segment is the single digit
     `0` or starts 1-9, so `08` and `0201` are refused. MDN says it in prose
     too: "Non-zero numbers must not include a leading zero."

So the documented fallback applies, extension only: the same numbers rendered
without the family's zero-padding. `2026.08.29.0201` and `2026.8.29.201` are
one value in two renderings — rule 148 defines comparison as numeric per
segment, under which they are equal — so nothing already published is
reordered, and left-padding each segment recovers the family string exactly.
HHMM stays one segment because AMO allows at most four.

The transition is safe in the other direction too: 2026 > 1, so every CalVer
outranks every published 1.0.x. build.yml's downgrade guard confirms it.

Also in scope:

* MAJOR.MINOR is gone. `cmd_major_minor`, `cmd_patch` and VERSION_EPOCH go
  with it, the committed version in manifest.json / package.json is now
  wholly inert, and ci.yml's MAJOR.MINOR-agreement check is retired rather
  than left running beside a fact that stopped existing (rule 22).
* ci.yml's `extension-version` lane now asserts Mozilla's regex verbatim
  instead of a loose `^[0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)*$` — which would have passed the
  padded shape. It also asserts YYYY.M.D.HHMM, because AMO would accept a
  regression to `1.0.<minutes>` while that orders below everything signed
  since. Checking here is the point: AMO 409s on re-signing, so a version it
  rejects is burned and cannot be reused.
* `artifacts.sh version extension` delegates to packaging.sh, so the two
  cannot answer differently. The direction matches the existing one —
  artifacts.sh already asks packaging.sh for the extension's path set.

#3156 is what makes this commit safe to make: packaging.sh is in web's path
set, so the web revision moves with the extension version and build-web
rebuilds instead of republishing an image bundling the previous XPI.

Scribe #3138.

buildx on this runner pushes the first tag to the registry and then
re-pushes the remaining ones through the DOCKER driver, reading them out
of a local image store that a registry-direct build never populated:

  #27 pushing …/fabledcurator:latest           DONE 15.8s
  #28 pushing …/fabledcurator:c-0e15c44 with docker
  #28 ERROR: tag does not exist: …:c-0e15c44

It is intermittent — build-ml made the identical two-tag push seconds
later in the same run and succeeded — and the consequence is worse than
the red job suggests. `:latest` had already published, so production was
correct while the immutable rollback tag rule 145 requires of every main
push simply did not exist. Nothing else would ever have noticed: a
missing :c-<sha> has no consumer that fails, so it surfaces at the moment
somebody needs to roll back, which is the worst time to learn a rollback
target was never written.

So the build now pushes exactly one ref — the channel's — and the
existing repoint step, which already excluded the source tag and already
ran on every reuse, now runs on the build path too and owns every other
tag. `imagetools create` is a registry-side manifest copy: no local
daemon, nothing that can be absent. This adds no new code path; it puts
the build case onto the one that was already proven.

Chosen over the alternative of asserting each tag resolves after the
build, which would have made the failure loud without making it rarer.

The cost, accepted: `imagetools create` wraps its source in an index, so
:c-<sha> is an index rather than a plain image and fc.revision does not
resolve through it. Nothing reads that label off :c-<sha> — the reuse
check only ever inspects the CHANNEL tag — and the index names the same
manifest, so a pull is byte-identical. The reuse path already produced
:c-<sha> this way; this only makes it uniform.

`build_tags` goes with it — the tag list now has exactly one consumer.

A doc describing a tag scheme the pipeline stopped using is worse than no
doc — it is a confident wrong answer, and #3159 named it as the drift that
had just bitten rule 148.

build.yml (each edit ×3, once per build job):

* The derived-values block claimed three values including a `tag`
  subcommand that no longer exists, and said "on dev the date tag is
  computed nowhere else". There are two values and no date tag.
* The BASE-IMAGE FRESHNESS paragraph argued from a pin that no longer
  exists — "a date tag has to keep serving the bytes it served
  (fabledcurator:2026.7.17 still resolves to July's image)". Milestone 318
  removed the argument's premise rather than answering it: with no version
  tags there is no immutable name a refresh could contradict, and rule 145
  already allows a moving tag to be republished. Deleted the argument,
  kept a line saying why there is nothing to argue about (#3159's phrasing:
  the workflow becomes obviously correct instead of carefully correct).
* The repoint comment said ":c-<sha> and the date pin". There is no date pin.
* "its set is too narrow — the direction that serves stale bytes on a pin"
  now names the failure that actually exists: the reuse check hits and the
  channel serves a web image bundling the previous XPI (#3156).

README gains a "Versions and tags" section — the three tags, why there is
no fourth, and the fact that with no registry name carrying it, the
instance's own report is the only answer to "which build is this?". Also
fixes two stale claims: three workflows (four since release.yml) and "AMO
signing runs on main only", which has been false since milestone 271
step 6 signed on both channels.

ci-requirements.md was missing milestones 313 and 318 entirely: no
artifacts.sh, no label-keyed reuse, no FC_VERSION. Added those, plus the
#3156/#3202 membership test (can changing this file change the published
bytes — not is it copied in), and corrected packaging.sh's "two consumers"
to three now that artifacts.sh reads it.

docker-compose.yml needed nothing — it names `:dev` directly and never
offered a pin target.

`scripts/artifacts.sh` decides both values the web image carries — the
`fc.revision` label the reuse check compares and the `FC_VERSION` baked into
the image — and was in no artifact's path set. So a change to `cmd_version`
alone left every revision untouched, the reuse check hit, the build was
skipped, and the published image went on reporting the OLD version format,
indefinitely, until some unrelated commit forced a rebuild. Nothing goes red;
the footer just shows a well-formed string of the wrong shape.

Milestone 318 step 5 is the worked instance:

  b3989d0 -> rev=fb2c4d5b80be  ver=2026.8.28.1249
  5771fd5 -> rev=fb2c4d5b80be  ver=2026.08.28.1249
  bce894b -> rev=bce894ba2499  ver=2026.08.28.2208

Same revision across the zero-pad commit, so web's build was skipped. It cost
nothing only by timing: FC_VERSION did not exist until step 6 landed one
commit later.

Web only, and that is the interesting part. Every artifact stamps a revision,
but only web also stamps a version. A revision-only artifact needs no entry
here, because changing how a revision is COMPUTED changes the derived value,
which then disagrees with the label on the published image and forces a
rebuild — the mechanism self-corrects, since it compares against a string
stamped into a real artifact. Nothing compares a version to anything. That
asymmetry is why this was invisible and is now written down in both files.

Named as a file rather than `scripts`: release_notes.py sits beside it and
only reads derived values, so it decides nothing and must not re-version web.

This is #3156 one level up — packaging.sh excluded from the version it
derives — so the guard is generalised rather than duplicated: one DERIVERS
table naming each deriver and the artifacts whose identity it decides. The
too-wide test gains a note saying where the line is, since "copied into no
image" no longer settles it on its own.

Step 2 took the build consequence away from a `v*` tag — `main` has already
built and published the commit by the time anyone tags it, and rebuilding
would re-push `:c-<sha>`, which rule 145 forbids even when the source
matches. That left the tag with nothing to do at all.

This is the job it has instead. Step 6 put the derived version in the
Settings footer, so an operator can say WHICH build they are running; this
says what is in it that was not in the one they ran last month. Both halves
of one question (note #3127 §5).

The previous release is found by walking ANCESTRY, not by sorting a list.
That is load-bearing here specifically: rule 148 moved the tag shape from
`v26.05.22.0` to `v2026.08.28.2208`, and lexicographically `v2026...` sorts
BEFORE `v26...` — the third character is `0` against `6`. A sorted
implementation would reach back past every new-shape tag to the newest
old-shape one and publish months of commits as "changes since", looking
entirely correct while doing it. `git describe --exclude` is immune to the
shape change, and reachability is the more honest question anyway.

The publisher GETs and PATCHes rather than POSTing and recovering the id
from a 409 — note #3127 §6.7, which is ThoughtSync #2182's bug. A `v*` tag
is created once so the conflict path is rare, but "rare" is how that one
survived to be found somewhere else.

Cross-checks are reported on the release, not enforced. The tag is already
pushed by the time this runs, so failing would leave the operator with a tag,
no release, and a red lane to explain it — while the release is still the
useful object. It says so at the top when the tag names a version the web
image does not report, or when the commit is not on `main` and the `:c-`
rollback refs it lists were never published.

Nothing runs on a schedule and nothing auto-tags on merge. Release tags are
bookmarks (note #3127 §0); FC went twelve weeks without one and nothing was
wrong.

Also here:
- `scripts/` joins the ruff lane. release_notes.py runs only on a tag push,
  so a syntax error there would otherwise surface at the one moment nobody
  wants to be debugging a workflow.
- version.spec.js reads the workflow directory instead of listing three
  files by hand. Its own comment says the assertion should survive consumers
  coming and going; the hardcoded list was the part that could not, and
  release.yml would have joined the directory without joining the check.

Tests build a synthetic history spanning the tag-shape change rather than
leaning on this repo's tags, so the span assertion holds whether or not a
checkout brought the tags along — a span test that quietly skips is worse
than one that fails.

A dim line at the foot of Settings: `FabledCurator 2026.08.28.1249 · dev`.

This is no longer a convenience. Milestone 318 stopped publishing version
image tags, so an instance's own report is the ONLY answer to "which build is
this?" — there is no registry name left to check it against. Note #3127 §5
says it directly: a wrong answer here has no second source to contradict it.

Three states, kept distinct because collapsing any two of them lies:

  not asked yet         render nothing
  asked, no version     render "unknown"
  asked, has a version  render it

A blank footer reads as "no version", which is a different claim from "I
cannot say". And a failed health call deliberately does NOT mark the build
loaded — a network blip says nothing about the image, and presenting it as
"unknown" would look like a defective build.

Carried on /api/health rather than a new route: it answers at the same cost
(two module constants, no I/O) and TopNav already fetches it app-wide, so a
separate endpoint would mean a second request for two strings.

Both fields are OMITTED when unset rather than sent empty. Absence already
means "cannot say" — an image predating the field says exactly that by not
having the key — so a second spelling would make every reader special-case
it. The pre-existing test asserting the body is EXACTLY {"status": "ok"} is
what keeps a well-meaning `or ""` default from creeping in.

FC_CHANNEL now has one definition. It was read from the environment in
extension.py and would have been read again here; the new build_info module
holds both, and extension.py binds it as a module-level name so existing
tests monkeypatch it exactly as before. Separate from config.py on purpose:
those are operator settings meant to be changed, these describe the artifact.

Channel sits beside the version, never inside it (rule 149), asserted from
both ends. A `-dev` suffix would read as a 0 segment to the extension's
parseInt comparator and make every dev build compare equal — #2993 exactly.

Not hidden, per the operator and §7: the JS bundle and asset hashes
fingerprint the build anyway, and "I'm on 2026.08.28.1249" is the single most
useful line in a bug report.

`2026.8.28.1249` becomes `2026.08.28.1249`. Note #3127 §1 and rule 148 both
specify the padded form.

The old reasoning was that each segment should read as a plain integer, and
it never held — comparison strips leading zeros on parse anyway, which the
same paragraph said. What stripping actually bought was this project emitting
`2026.8.28.1432` while a sibling emitted `2026.08.28.1432`: two shapes one
character apart, which is the hard kind of difference to notice. Two
obviously different formats would be safer than two nearly identical ones,
and identical is safer still.

Nothing already published is reordered: comparison is numeric per dot-segment,
so `08` and `8` are equal.

strip0 goes, and with it three of the four git calls per version — git's
format-local takes the whole format string, and splitting it into pieces only
ever existed to strip the padding between them.

It also fixes a real edge the old helper mangled. A commit at 03:22 UTC
derived `322` for its HHMM field, silently turning a four-digit field into
three; it now derives `0322`. Verified against a real commit rather than
reasoned about.

Checked before relying on it, since step 8 feeds this to Firefox: the
extension's comparator is `parseInt(n, 10)` with an explicit radix, so `08`
reads as 8 and there is no octal hazard (rule 150).

Two tests added. One pins the padded shape — the only thing keeping the
family's projects emitting one string is an assertion that they do. The other
asserts version and revision describe the same commit: they are derived
independently, and a divergence would mean an instance naming one commit
while carrying another's bytes, which is unfalsifiable from outside because
both values still look well-formed.

Reuse worked exactly once per artifact, then every later push rebuilt at full
price. Nothing failed and nothing went red — the savings simply evaporated.

`imagetools create` wraps its source manifest in an INDEX. The repoint step
passed the channel tag as both source and target, so after any reuse :dev
stopped being a plain image, `.Image.Config.Labels` no longer resolved
through it, and fc.revision read as absent on the next push.

Observed across three runs rather than reasoned about: run 4749 read
fc.revision=a7e626a67a79 off fabledcurator-ml:dev and skipped the build; run
4751 read <none> off the same tag and rebuilt. The only thing to touch it in
between was 4749's own repoint. The agent hit in 4751 precisely because its
:dev had last been written by a real build, not by a repoint — which is the
control case.

Milestone 313's r-<rev> design was immune without anyone noticing why: the
source (the identity tag) was never one of the targets. Step 3 made the
channel tag both, and inherited a bug the earlier shape had avoided by
accident.

Fix: exclude the source from the target list, so the channel tag is only ever
written by a real build and stays a plain readable image. On dev that leaves
nothing to do, which is correct — the hit already established that :dev
points at the right content. On main it leaves :c-<sha>, which rule 145
requires of every main push whether or not a build ran.

Also added a note the reuse step prints when a channel tag exists but carries
no readable label. That is expected exactly once per artifact during the
migration; if it appears on every push, the tag is being index-wrapped again
and reuse is dead. This class of failure — correct behaviour, quietly worth
less than it reads — is the third one this milestone has turned up, and it is
the one that does not announce itself.

The narrowing itself. Rule 145, narrowed 2026-08-28 once it was verified that
nothing pins: "a third name for the same thing is upkeep for a model we do
not run."

Gone:

  :2026.8.28  the per-artifact date tag from milestone 313 step 3. It shipped,
              it was verified on both branches, and its premise is gone. This
              is a withdrawal, not a correction — nothing about it was wrong.
  :main       a second moving name for whatever :latest already pointed at,
              justified by nothing but symmetry with :dev.

Kept, and note the inversion: :c-<sha> on main. Milestone 313 step 6 planned
to retire it on "haven't used, not important" — amended rule 145 makes it the
rollback unit and, with version tags gone, the only immutable identifier
left. #3139 is cancelled as superseded rather than quietly dropped.

No retention job is built. One already runs (#3157): a nightly Gitea
package_cleanup_rule with keep_count=10. Two consequences worth writing down.
Its keep_pattern protects any dotted-numeric tag, so the date tags this
commit stops minting would have been exempt from retention and accumulated
without bound — silently, in the direction of unbounded growth. That trap is
now dissolved rather than needing the pattern change #3139 planned. And
:c-<sha> IS prunable under that pattern, so the honest statement is that it
is the rollback unit for roughly the last 10 builds, not for every main
commit ever.

cmd_tag goes with its last consumer rather than being left as a dead
subcommand for a later step to notice. The report step logs version and
revision, which is the same information — the date is the first three fields
of the version.

Docs needed no change: every consumer already tracks a moving tag
(docker-compose.yml on :dev, agent/README.md on :latest), which is the
evidence the whole stance rests on.

Run 4746 failed lint and pytest on the same cause: `from test_artifact_paths
import ROOT, declared_paths`. No other test module in this repo imports
another, so that was a new convention introduced for no gain — and the wrong
one, since `tests/` is a package and the bare name does not resolve.

Everything now goes through `artifacts.sh`, which is the interface build.yml
actually calls. The tests exercise the contract rather than a Python
re-implementation of it, and the duplicate `declared_paths` helper is gone
rather than copied.

Two real defects found while fixing it:

The newest commit is now computed by committer TIME, matching what
artifacts.sh means. It was `git log -1`, whose default order is
reverse-chronological only within topological constraints — so on a merged
history it can name a different commit than the newest timestamp does. Both
agree on this repo today (verified across all four artifacts), which is
exactly what makes it a flake waiting for the branch shape that separates
them.

The third test asserted the same invariant as the first in different words.
Removed rather than left as apparent coverage.

The shadow (dee93fa, run 4732) answered the gate: `imagetools inspect
--format` reads `.Image.Config.Labels` against this registry on buildx
v0.36.1. So the reuse check now asks the moving channel tag whether the image
it already points at carries this commit's `fc.revision`, and the r-<rev>
identity tags stop being published.

Three things this removes rather than manages:

A name minted per build that one thing read. Rule 145's narrowing is aimed
exactly there — "a third name for the same thing is upkeep for a model we do
not run."

The -main/-dev qualifier, and the CHANNELLED list behind it. Which tag you
inspect IS the channel, so the distinction has nowhere to live. cmd_identity
goes with it.

A silent expiry nobody wrote down. r-<rev> matches no branch of the
registry's keep_pattern (#3157), so identity tags were prunable past the
newest 10 — a pruned one costs a rebuild, in the safe direction and entirely
invisibly. A label rides inside a tag that has to exist anyway.

It also dissolves #3154 instead of deferring it: a scheduled base refresh
rebuilds :latest with the same revision label, the next unrelated push sees a
match and skips, and the refreshed base survives. Under the tag scheme that
push repointed :latest back to the older base.

The measured detail that shapes the code: a missing label returns an EMPTY
STRING and exits 0. Branching on the exit code would read "no label yet" as
success and skip a build that was needed. So it compares values, and every
uncertain case — absent label, unreachable tag, older image — lands as empty,
never equals a 12-char revision, and falls through to a build.

Reading the specific key matters too. The map carries the base image's labels,
and org.opencontainers.image.version sits right beside ours reading 24.04 on
the agent — a plausible-looking wrong answer.

Expect every artifact to rebuild once on this push: nothing carries a label
yet and it cannot be backfilled, since the reuse path copies a manifest and
config labels are not manifest annotations. One rebuild per artifact, ever,
self-healing after.

test_artifact_identity.py is rewritten around what is now load-bearing. The
CHANNELLED drift test had nothing left to guard; in its place the revision is
asked of git directly, so the file fails if the derivation ever stops being
"the commit this artifact's own shipped files last changed in".

Additive and inert. Every build now stamps `fc.revision` as an image label,
and a diagnostic step tries to read it back off the channel tag. Nothing
downstream reads either yet — the reuse check still keys on the r-<rev> tag.

The question step 3 has to answer before committing: can the reuse check be
keyed on a LABEL read off the channel tag instead of on a separate tag? If
it can, nothing is minted per build, the -main/-dev identity split
disappears with CHANNELLED, and #3154's base-refresh clobber stops existing
rather than needing a workaround. It also closes a defect found in what
already shipped: r-<rev> tags do not match the registry's keep_pattern
(#3157), so they are prunable, and a pruned identity tag silently costs a
rebuild. A label cannot be pruned — it rides inside a tag that must exist.

Three probes rather than one, because `--format` templating over .Image
varies by buildx version and one round trip per guess is a poor trade.

Two questions, answered at different times, and conflating them would
abandon a working design:

1. Do the template mechanics work here? Answered on the first run — if the
   probes print a labels map, even an empty one, `--format` resolves on this
   buildx and this registry. That is the real gate.
2. Does a value round-trip? Only once an artifact genuinely rebuilds. This
   push touches build.yml, which is in no path set, so all three artifacts
   reuse and stamp nothing. Expect no values this run.

That second point is the migration path rather than a defect: under the real
mechanism "no label" reads as a MISS, so each artifact rebuilds once and is
stamped from then on — one extra build per artifact, ever, in the safe
direction. `imagetools create` cannot backfill it, since it copies a
manifest and config labels are not manifest annotations.

Removes the `v*` image-build trigger. A release tag names a commit `main`
already built and published; rebuilding it produced the same source under
the same names and RE-PUSHED `:c-<sha>` — which rule 145 forbids even when
the bytes match, because image configs carry timestamps and "same source"
does not mean "same manifest". The tag build was publishing nothing new and
violating an immutability rule to do it.

Three constructs go with it, all of which existed only to manage that build:

The 10-minute XPI polling loop. A release cut fired the tag build and the
main build together; the tag build skipped sign-extension and raced straight
to the download, losing every time (operator-flagged 2026-05-27 after
v26.05.27.0). Polling was the fix for a build that should not have run. It is
now a single fetch, and a 404 means the two jobs derived different versions
for one commit — which should fail loudly rather than be slept through.

The IS_TAG_PUSH carve-out from milestone 313 step 4, which stopped a tag
build from claiming an identity tag it would have re-pointed at fresh bytes.

build-web's `always() && (success || skipped)` gate, which existed to let a
SKIPPED sign-extension through on a tag push while still blocking a failed
one. sign-extension now always runs, so a plain `needs` gives exactly the
wanted behaviour. Its own branch condition goes too: main and dev are the
only triggers, so a gate naming both matched everything, and a condition
that is always true reads as though some path avoids it.

Releases still happen — rule 148 is untouched and tags are still cut on
explicit request per rule 2. They stop building images and start carrying a
changelog (step 7).

Net 115 lines deleted, 73 added, most of that comments explaining races that
can no longer occur. Nothing in the repo referenced the tag build, so no doc
changes were needed; the broader doc pass is step 9.

`packaging.sh pathspec` excluded `extension/scripts/**` — the same list
web-ext ignores. But the two lists answer different questions, and this is
the one place they disagree.

packaging.sh is not packaged into the XPI. It does decide the version
string, and build.yml stamps that string into the manifest.json that IS
packaged. Changing how the version is computed therefore changes the shipped
bytes, and the derivation has to see it.

Harmless while every push rebuilt the web image. Step 4 made the rebuild
conditional on the derived revision moving, which turns it into a silent
failure: a packaging.sh change yields a NEW version, so sign-extension misses
its ext-<version> cache and signs — while build-web sees an unmoved revision,
reuses the published image and ships the OLD XPI. One orphaned AMO signature,
and an instance serving code the registry calls current. Found while checking
the ground under step 5, which changes the version format and is exactly the
commit that would have hit it.

Split the list rather than widening the shared one: NOT_VERSION_RELEVANT
drives the pathspec, NOT_PACKAGED_TRACKED still drives web-ext's ignore
list, and scripts/ stays out of the XPI. The two directions are not
symmetric, which is why the version list is the narrower one — too wide
costs a re-sign and a rebuild for a change that ships nothing new, too
narrow serves stale bytes and says nothing.

No version churn: the last packaging.sh commit predates the current
extension revision, so the derived version is unchanged at 1.0.3500147 and
web's revision stays a7e626a67a.

Both suites now pin the disagreement from their own side, because the
tempting fix for either half is to make the lists one again — version.spec.js
asserts the pathspec does NOT exclude scripts while the ignore list still
does, and test_artifact_paths.py asserts packaging.sh is inside the extension
and web path sets.

Before building, each job asks the registry whether this artifact's content
is already published. On a hit it skips the build entirely and repoints the
channel and date tags at the existing manifest with `imagetools create` —
registry-side, no layer transfer, seconds. This is the step that stops a
push touching only `agent/` from rebuilding web and ml, and stops a merge to
main rebuilding what dev already built.

The question is asked with a new `artifacts.sh identity`, not with the date
tag: the date tag is day-precise and last-one-wins, so two different builds
share it and it cannot answer "is this content published?". The commit sha
would move on every push and never hit, which is the redundant rebuild being
removed. The revision does both jobs — content-unique, and stable across
pushes that did not touch the artifact.

Identity is channel-qualified for web and only for web, because web is the
only image that takes a build-arg: FC_CHANNEL is baked in and reported by
/api/extension/manifest, so its dev and main builds of one revision are
genuinely different images. ml and agent take none, which is what lets a
merge reuse dev's build rather than rebuilding the agent's CUDA image to
produce bytes that already exist. tests/test_artifact_identity.py reads the
Dockerfiles and fails if that list drifts from the ARG declarations, in
either direction — collapsing the channels ships an instance that reports
the wrong one, and splitting them needlessly rebuilds every merge.

Failure direction is deliberate: an inspect that errors for any reason reads
as a miss and the build runs. Only a real 200 skips one.

A tag-push never claims the identity. It rebuilds a revision main already
published, and image configs are not bit-reproducible, so re-pushing
r-<rev> would point an immutable tag at fresh bytes — rule 145's exact
prohibition. It publishes only its own :v... label and otherwise reuses.

Base-image freshness, decided rather than left implicit: an artifact whose
source stops moving stops picking up base updates under its pinned tag. That
is what a pin means, and rule 145 already says the refresh belongs on the
moving tag instead. Filed as #3154 rather than folded in here, because the
naive version regresses :latest on the next unrelated push.

ci.yml's backend lane gains fetch-depth: 0 — the new tests derive real
revisions, and on a depth-1 clone that derivation returns the tip sha or
fails, so the lane would go green while asserting nothing.

The three build jobs' shadow steps are renamed and re-commented: those
values stopped being informational at step 3, and a step captioned "nothing
reads this" beside steps that do is worse than no caption.

Each main build now also publishes <image>:YYYY.M.D — the date of the
commit that artifact's shipped files last changed in. Purely additive;
:main, :latest, :c-<sha> and the dev path are untouched, so reverting this
commit reverts the behaviour.

    main push -> :main, :latest, :c-<sha>, :2026.8.27
    dev push  -> :dev

Per artifact, so an image whose files did not change keeps the tag it
already had. On this commit the agent reads 2026.7.17 while web and ml
read 2026.8.27 — six weeks apart, from one push. Step 4 turns that into
not rebuilding it.

Day precision, and a second main build the same day replaces the first.
Operator's call, and the reasoning is theirs: same-day work is not
something worth pinning. A rollback goes to a day, not to the fourth merge
of a Tuesday afternoon. It also makes retention mean "the last N days"
rather than "the last N pushes".

CALVER is computed inside the main branch rather than at the top of the
step, and hard-fails when empty. There is no `set -e` here, so an
unconditional assignment that failed would have left it empty and published
the tag `fabledcurator:` — an invalid name, from a step that still reported
success. It is also simply unused on the dev and tag paths.

Fixed a stale comment while in this block rather than leaving it for step
7: it claimed release tags carry "no `.N` per family release-posture rule".
Rule 148 was amended on 2026-08-24 to REQUIRE the suffix, after the ban
caused a same-day tag to be retargeted and a release deleted to make room
(note 2813). FC's own tags already carry suffixes; only the comment was
asserting the superseded rule.

Verified before pushing: the derivation holds across 200 commits of real
history — a derived revision always touches its own path set, the version
never decreases along any parent->child edge, and web tracks all three
extension-only commits in the log. That last one is the direction that
would serve stale bytes on a pin.

Every build job now logs the tag, version and revision its artifact would
get. Nothing reads them; no `set -e`, and each derivation falls back to
UNAVAILABLE, so a broken script cannot fail a build. Same discipline as
milestone 271 step 2, which is what made that cutover safe to do in one
commit.

Also fixes a landmine the plan named but had not checked: build-ml and
build-agent were checking out at depth 1. Both now use fetch-depth: 0.

That mattered more than it looks. A depth-1 clone sees one commit, so
`git log HEAD -- <shipped paths>` either returns that commit's timestamp —
plausible, and wrong — or returns nothing. For build-ml on this push it
would have returned today's date, because HEAD touches backend/, and
nothing downstream would have questioned it. For build-agent it would have
returned nothing at all, since no single commit here touches agent/, and
artifacts.sh exits non-zero rather than guessing. One direction is silent
and one is loud; only the loud one was ever going to get noticed.

What to read from the shadow lines over the next few pushes, in order of
how badly each would bite:

  * a push touching the extension must move BOTH the extension and web,
    because build-web bakes the XPI in. If web does not move, its path set
    is too narrow and a pinned web image will serve an extension it does
    not name.
  * a push touching only agent/ must leave web and ml still. If they move,
    their sets are too wide and they will rebuild for changes they do not
    ship.
  * a docs-only push must move nothing.
  * dev and main must derive the same values for the same source.

Step 3 only lets these values name a tag once those hold.

scripts/artifacts.sh generalises what packaging.sh established for the
extension: four published artifacts, four path sets, four independent
versions derived from the newest commit touching each set.

Measured on this commit, and this is the point of the whole thing:

  web        tag=2026.8.27  version=2026.8.27.1547  rev=a7e626a
  ml         tag=2026.8.27  version=2026.8.27.1547  rev=a7e626a

  extension  tag=2026.8.27  version=2026.8.27.1547  rev=a7e626a

The agent is six weeks behind because agent/fc_agent has not changed since
57e5243. Today it rebuilds and re-tags on every push regardless; from step
4 it will not.

Three outputs, because they answer different questions and conflating them
is how this goes wrong:

  tag       YYYY.M.D        the published image tag. Day precision, per the
                            operator: same-day work is not worth pinning, so
                            a second build that day replaces the first.
  version   YYYY.M.D.HHMM   the ordering key. The extension needs this and
                            cannot use `tag`: Firefox compares it to decide
                            whether an update exists, so two same-day builds
                            must be distinguishable or the second hits the
                            ext-<version> cache and ships stale bytes. That
                            is issue #2397's failure mode exactly.
  revision  <sha>           content identity. Because `tag` is only
                            day-precise, "does this tag already exist" cannot
                            decide whether a build can be skipped — two
                            different builds legitimately share a tag. Step 4
                            keys on this instead.

Path sets read from the Dockerfiles rather than guessed. Notable calls:

  - web includes the extension's packaged set, because build.yml bakes the
    signed XPI into frontend/public/extension/ before the docker build. Miss
    that and :latest serves a NEW extension under an unchanged web version.
  - web excludes frontend/test: vite builds from src/, index.html and
    public/, so a spec change lands in the builder layer but never in dist.
  - agent is agent/Dockerfile + agent/requirements.txt + agent/fc_agent,
    NOT agent/. README.md, ruff.toml and docker-compose.yml sit in that
    directory and never reach the image.
  - every set includes its own Dockerfile and requirements: a base-image
    bump changes the artifact as surely as a source edit does.
  - the extension's set is read from packaging.sh, not restated. One
    definition, per #2397.

tests/test_artifact_paths.py guards both directions of being wrong, since
both are silent. Too narrow — a COPY'd file missing from the set — means the
version does not move when the content does, and a pin serves stale bytes.
Too wide means re-versioning for a change the artifact does not ship. The
test parses each Dockerfile's COPY lines and compares them against the
declaration, so adding a COPY without updating the set fails the lane.

No workflow reads any of this yet. Step 2 shadows it.

build-ml failed at the login step twice on a7e626a, five seconds in, with
MODULE_NOT_FOUND on the action's own dist/index.js. Not the token — the
secret resolved to *** and the action never ran far enough to use it.

The cause is a race in act_runner's shared action cache, not corruption.
A remote action is cached at one /root/.cache/act/<hash> per runner, and
build-web, build-ml and build-agent all start in the same second and all
want docker/login-action@v3. One job re-clones that directory — emptying
and repopulating it — while another walks it to copy into its container,
and the walker lstat()s a file that just vanished. The two failures named
DIFFERENT missing files, eslint.config.mjs then jest.config.ts, which is
what rules out a bad cache entry and points at the race: a dangling entry
would name the same file every time.

Re-running does not help, because the re-run starts the three jobs
simultaneously again. It reproduced immediately.

Dropping the action removes FC from that race for this step. Logging in is
one command, the docker CLI is already in the CI image per
ci-requirements.md, and the same reasoning as family rule 5 applies: a
marketplace action buys nothing when the tool is baked into the image the
workflow already selected. Password on stdin, never as an argument — an
argument lands in the process table and draws docker's own deprecation
warning.

This narrows the exposure rather than closing it. All three jobs also
share docker/build-push-action@v5 and can race on it the same way; that
one has not lost yet, and replacing it means hand-rolling buildx
invocation including the build-args and provenance handling, which is a
bigger change than this failure justifies. Recorded on #3118.

Live consequence being cleared: fabledcurator-ml:dev was left a commit
behind fabledcurator:dev, which is the stale-pairing trap the trigger
comment on 239b1ed warns about.

Closes the half of the ask the signing work didn't: a way to tell a dev
build from a main one. FC_CHANNEL is baked into the web image at build
time and /api/extension/manifest reports it as its own key, next to
version — the popup banner, the toolbar tooltip and the Settings card all
name it.

Beside the version, never inside it. A `1.0.3499884-dev` suffix is the
obvious shortcut and it is the exact failure this design comes from:
versionIsNewer parses each dotted segment with parseInt, so a suffixed
segment reads as 0, every dev build compares equal to every other, and
"no update available" stops being distinguishable from "I cannot read this
version". The comparator already degrades rather than discarding (rule
150), which is a reason not to NEED the suffix, not a licence to add one.
Two tests hold the line — one backend, asserting version and channel are
separate keys; one frontend, asserting the rendered version text stays the
bare derived number.

Optional on the read side, and absent rather than defaulted. An image
built before this field says nothing by not having the key; an image built
without a channel now says nothing the same way, so there is one absence
to handle instead of a second spelling of "unknown". Every reader drops
the label entirely when it is missing and reads exactly as it did before.
Reported verbatim rather than validated against {dev, main}: if an image
declares something else, showing what it claims helps whoever is debugging
more than dropping it would.

FC_CHANNEL is declared LAST in the Dockerfile. An ARG invalidates every
layer below it, and this is the one value that differs between the dev and
main builds of identical source — earlier, and the two channels could
never share a cached pip install. A tag push counts as main: a vYY.MM.DD
tag is cut from main, so that image is a main-channel artifact wearing an
immutable name.

No channel switcher, deliberately. background.js:34 already records that
Firefox's static update_url cannot apply, because every FC instance is a
different host — so the extension asks its configured backend, and the
channel IS the instance it points at. Switching is repointing apiUrl and
reinstalling from that host. A separate setting would contradict each
server build shipping its own extension.

This commit touches packaged extension files, so it moves the derived
version and will sign a new one via AMO — the first push to exercise the
extension-changed path from dev end to end.

The guard asked whether a packaged extension file changed without the
version moving. Since step 4 nobody moves the version by hand, so it was
checking a fact that had stopped existing — and it was not merely dead
weight: it would have failed the lane on every real extension change,
demanding a bump that decides nothing. Removed rather than left running
beside the new mechanism (rule 22).

What replaces it is thinner and true. The extension-version lane now
asserts the derivation resolves on this commit, that the derived value is
the plain dotted-numeric shape AMO accepts, and that MAJOR.MINOR agrees
between manifest.json and package.json. MAJOR.MINOR is the one part still
hand-set, and packaging.sh reads it from manifest.json ALONE, so a
divergence ships a version package.json disagrees with. The lane keeps
fetch-depth: 0 — checking that the derivation survives a real checkout is
half its remaining value.

Deliberately not checked there: that the derived value beats what is
already signed. That guard belongs in build.yml, where it compares against
the real ext-* releases. Comparing against origin/main in a lane would be
wrong, because dev legitimately derives a LOWER value whenever main is
ahead on the extension, and a lane that fails for being behind is a lane
people learn to ignore.

packaging.sh is down to two consumers from three. version.spec.js's
"ci.yml derives its pathspec" test would have gone red on that, so it is
rewritten to assert the property rather than the consumer: no workflow
inlines an :(exclude)extension/ literal, across all three. That keeps the
#2397 anti-regression value while surviving consumers coming and going.
A second test pins build.yml to packaging.sh version and fails if it goes
back to grepping the committed value — which is not a style regression but
the #3092 bug itself. build.yml joins extension.yml's trigger paths, since
the suite now asserts against it.

The lockstep test narrows from the whole version string to MAJOR.MINOR.
The committed patch numbers are inert now; asserting on them would fail
for a difference that changes nothing.

Docs. extension/README.md's Release section described extension.yml
signing on main and committing the XPI into frontend/public/ — untrue
since 2026-05-25, and it told the reader to hand-bump both files, which is
now exactly the wrong instruction. Rewritten, with a Versioning section
that says plainly that editing the patch number does nothing and why the
key is commit time rather than a count. ci-requirements.md drops the third
packaging.sh consumer and names every job that needs full history. Root
README no longer claims the extension is signed on main only.

Build images / build-agent (push) Successful in 10m13s
The step the milestone exists for. sign-extension ungates from main-only
to main-or-dev, and build-web downloads the XPI on dev as well, so a dev
push produces an image carrying the extension that is being developed
rather than requiring a merge to try one.

Not two signatures. The version is the commit TIME of the newest packaged
extension change, so dev and main derive the SAME number for the same
source. A dev push that changes the extension signs it; the merge to main
finds the ext-<version> release already there, hits the cache, and bundles
the byte-identical XPI into :latest with no second AMO call. One signature
per extension CHANGE, shared by both channels. That property is what makes
two channels affordable at all, and it is why step 4 had to land first:
ungating this while the version was still the hand-set 1.0.11 would have
found the existing ext-1.0.11 release, skipped AMO, and bundled main's
stale XPI into :dev — a dev channel confidently serving old code.

Tags stay excluded. The tag path deliberately skips signing and polls for
the release instead (the 2026-05-27 race).

The ext-<version> release's target_commitish moves from the literal "main"
to $GITHUB_SHA. Either branch can create that release now, and tagging a
dev-signed XPI against a main commit that need not even contain the source
it was built from is a lie that costs nothing to avoid.

Known, not addressed here: two concurrent builds that both derive the same
unsigned version will both call AMO and the loser gets a 409. The window
already existed between main and tag pushes; dev signing widens it. It
fails loudly rather than shipping anything wrong, and the rollback trap
cleans up the empty release. Filed separately.

Also unchanged here: ci.yml's manual-bump guard is still in place and
still false. It does not fire on this commit — nothing packaged changed —
but it will fail the lane on the next extension change, demanding a bump
that no longer decides anything. Step 5 next.

Cutover. sign-extension no longer reads the version out of the repo — it
runs packaging.sh version and stamps the result into manifest.json and
package.json in the working tree before web-ext sees them. Never
committed back: the commit carrying the bump would itself be a change to
the extension and would move the version again.

Shadow mode ends here, in both build.yml and ci.yml. It had one job —
validate the formula at zero cost before a real AMO version was burned —
and CI confirmed it on 239b1ed: shadow: manual=1.0.11 derived=1.0.3499884.

build-web re-derives rather than being handed the value, so it gains
fetch-depth: 0. It was the outstanding landmine: a depth-1 clone derives a
WRONG, too-low version rather than failing, and would then 404 fetching a
release that exists under its real name. sign-extension and
extension-version already had full history.

New guard, and it stays permanently: refuse to sign when the derived
version is strictly OLDER than the highest ext-* release already signed.
Firefox rejects a downgrade and AMO never releases a burned version, so
backwards is unrecoverable — it strands every install that took the higher
one. Strictly older, not older-or-equal: equality is the ordinary case,
an unchanged extension deriving the same version it did last build, which
is exactly what makes the ext-<version> cache hit and holds AMO to one
call per extension CHANGE rather than per push. The release list is
paginated because ext-* shares it with the v* tags, and the bound fails
rather than calling the highest it happened to see the highest there is.

First derived value is 1.0.3499884 against a highest-signed ext-1.0.10, so
the backfill direction is right by six orders of magnitude. 1.0.11 sits in
the repo and was never signed; nothing is stranded by skipping past it.

Still main-only. Step 6 ungates sign-extension to dev, which is what
actually puts an XPI on :dev.

Note for step 5: ci.yml's manual-bump guard is now false. It still demands
a hand bump when a packaged file changes, and that bump no longer decides
anything — the derived value overwrites it at build time. Harmless but
pointless, and it should be retired before the next extension change.

build.yml triggered on main and tags only. The 2026-05-26 comment gave
the reason: "operator tests from :latest after merge-to-main, not from
the dev branch image. Saves one full docker build per dev push."

That trade has since been named as a fault. Family rule 147 — main IS
production, test on :dev, never by shipping — and rule 146 — a rolling
channel refreshes itself, and a channel that can only be refreshed by
shipping is not a channel. 146's note on 147 describes this exact shape:
the pressure to test by shipping does not come from carelessness, it
comes from :dev being unable to carry the build.

Two live consequences, not hypotheticals:
  - docker-compose.yml pins fabledcurator:dev, an image nothing has
    published since May. The registry-image path of the documented
    quick-start could not have worked.
  - trying an extension change required merging to main, because
    sign-extension is gated to main and :dev did not exist to carry an
    XPI. Shipping was the only way to test.

All three images build on dev. Deliberate: a :dev web image paired with
a stale :dev ml or agent is a worse trap than no dev channel, because
the mismatch surfaces as a runtime failure rather than a missing tag.
The cost the 2026-05-26 note was avoiding is real and is now paid on
every dev push — layer reuse should keep ml's cost to the COPY layers,
but if it bites, narrowing is a `paths:` filter away.

:dev only. The dev path never writes :c-<sha>: that is the rollback unit
(rule 145), and a rolling tag may legitimately carry newer contents than
the :c-<sha> of the same commit.

This does NOT yet put an XPI on :dev — sign-extension is still gated to
main, and ungating it has to wait for the derived version to control
publishing, or dev would sign the hand-set 1.0.11, hit the existing
cache and ship main's stale XPI. That is the next step.

bvandeusen cd5444e3ae ci(extension): derive the version from commit TIME, not commit count (#3092)
Rule 149: an artifact's ordering key must be time-derived, never a commit
count. packaging.sh's cmd_patch was a count.

Why that matters here rather than in the abstract. A count is per-branch:
dev and main count different histories of the SAME code. Today only main
signs, so nothing has ordered the two against each other and the fault is
invisible. The moment dev also publishes an extension, the two versions
order by which branch accumulated more commits rather than by which is
newer — and a squash-merge makes it permanent, because main gains one
commit where dev gained five. dev then climbs away from main and a dev
install can never cross back.

That is Roundtable's 2026-08-24 incident (Scribe #2993) in a different
repo: their versionCode was the branch's commit count, and it produced a
channel you could enter and not leave. Measured on this repo today the
old formula gives main=23, dev=24 — one apart, which is exactly how the
inversion stays invisible until it strands somebody.

New formula: minutes since 2020-01-01 of the LATEST commit touching a
packaged extension file. Same anchor and unit Roundtable settled on.

Commit time, not build time, and the difference is load-bearing:

  - stable while the extension is unchanged, so the ext-<version>
    signature cache still hits and AMO is called once per extension
    CHANGE rather than once per push. Build-time minutes would re-sign
    on every push and never let two channels share a signature.
  - after a merge, main sees the same commit and derives the same
    number, so :latest reuses the signature :dev already produced for
    byte-identical code. Same code, same version, one signing.
  - monotonic: max() over a set that only gains members. Verified
    across all 24 extension-touching commits, zero non-monotonic steps.
  - reproducible from any checkout.

Derives 1.0.3499884 on dev, 1.0.3465860 on main — both far above the
last hand-set 1.0.11, so milestone 271's backfill guard is satisfied by
construction rather than by an offset.

Still shadow-only: nothing reads the derived value yet. Both shadow
steps log it, and ci.yml's runs on dev too, so both channels' numbers
are visible — that is the pair that has to stay ordered. Prior shadow
observations describe the OLD formula and prove nothing about this one,
so the window restarts; ci.yml says so at the step.

New requirement recorded in ci-requirements.md: a depth-1 clone derives
a wrong, too-low value rather than failing, so fetch-depth: 0 is
load-bearing wherever packaging.sh version is called.

bvandeusen 5a0e1bbd03 perf(ml): batch the auto-apply sweeps' image_tag inserts (#3072)
CI / extension-version (push) Successful in 3s

CI / frontend-build (push) Successful in 27s
CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 32s
CI / integration (push) Successful in 4m2s
Item 1 of #3072. Both sweeps issued a single-row pg_insert(image_tag)
from inside their per-image loop. Steady state that is nothing; a first
sweep over a back-catalogue is one round-trip per applied tag, tens of
thousands of them. Each chunk now collects its rows and writes them in
one statement.

The ticket suggested one insert per chunk PER TAG. A single multi-row
VALUES carries every tag at once, so it is one statement per chunk full
stop — and the sweeps already accumulate across all heads before they
commit, so nothing had to be restructured to allow it.

Not a new helper: wip_title.apply_wip_image_tags was already doing the
chunked ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING insert, so that shape is extracted to
services/image_tag_apply.insert_image_tags and all three writers share
it. The extraction deliberately leaves wip_title's pre-SELECT behind
rather than pulling it into the shared function — the sweeps don't need
it (their `skip` sets already exclude applied and rejected images) and
it exists only to produce an accurate count, which the sweeps also
compute themselves. So the shared primitive returns nothing: psycopg
reports rowcount -1 for a multi-row ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING insert, and a
count taken from the statement would be a lie rather than an
approximation.

Ordering note for the system-tag sweep: tag rows are now written after
that chunk's PresentationReview rows rather than interleaved before
them. Safe — PresentationReview FKs to image_record and tag, not to
image_tag.

Chunk size stays 5000: 5000 rows x 3 bound params = 15000, inside
Postgres' 65535-parameter ceiling with room to spare.

tests/test_image_tag_apply.py covers the primitive directly, since it is
now the single place three writers can be wrong at once — most
importantly that a re-run never restamps a hand-applied tag's source,
which would silently poison head training (it excludes the auto
sources).

Left alone: _insert_presentation_review is still per-row, and the
retract path still deletes per-row. Both operate on sets that are small
by construction, unlike the apply path.

Items 2-5 of #3072. Item 1 (the per-row sweep inserts) is separate.

2. .fc-bad was not merely duplicated — it is .fc-weak under a second
   name. Both local definitions were `color: rgb(var(--v-theme-error))`,
   identical to the global .fc-weak, and GpuAgentCard was already using
   .fc-weak to colour exactly what GpuActivityPanel coloured .fc-bad (an
   errored count, red when non-zero). So rather than promoting a synonym
   to app.css, both call sites now use .fc-weak and the local defs are
   gone. app.css's status-colour comment records why there is no .fc-bad,
   next to the existing note on why .fc-ok is deliberately NOT global.

3. GalleryItem.vue's obsidian literals now use --v-theme-background,
   which IS obsidian (vuetify-theme.js maps background -> surfaces.
   obsidian). Preferred over --fc-chrome-rgb: same value, but that
   variable is named for the nav fade, not for the palette entry.

   The ticket said these were the only three real uses in the tree. They
   are not — GalleryItem itself had two more in the artist-label
   gradient (fixed here, so the file is now consistent), and ~13 more
   live in SeriesView, SeriesReaderView, ImageViewer, ArtistHeader,
   ExploreView and GalleryFilterBar. Those are a separate sweep, filed
   rather than folded in here.

4. The attachment download path had two hand-formatted copies. One
   definition now, `attachment_download_url`, next to the model both
   serializers already import. The test pins it by MATCHING the built
   path against the app's real URL map rather than comparing to a
   literal — a string-equality test would still pass after someone
   renamed the route, which is the drift the helper exists to prevent.

5. Extension API key now compares with hmac.compare_digest. Compared as
   BYTES, not str: compare_digest's str form raises TypeError on
   non-ASCII, and this value comes straight from an attacker-controlled
   header, so the str form would turn a junk key into a 500 instead of a
   403. Low stakes either way — the API is unauthenticated-by-design on
   a LAN — but it costs nothing.

README.md was last touched in 4aff9c5 (2026-05-14) and several of its
most visible lines had gone false:

- "Pre-v1. Not yet functional." — FC has been continuously deployed for
  months. Replaced with what main/dev actually mean for what's running.
- "Node 22 pre-installed" — ci-requirements.md and extension.yml both say
  node 24, and frontend/package.json requires >=24.
- "Runner label python-ci — a runner with Python 3.14, ruff and Node 22
  pre-installed ... The runner image (runner-base:python-ci) is built
  from CI-Runner/CI-python/" — describes runs-on as selecting the
  toolchain. It doesn't: runs-on is a scheduling label, and every job
  names its own container.image (ci-python:3.14, or node:24-bookworm-slim
  for the extension lane).
- "Both ci.yml and build.yml use this label" — there are three workflows.

The CI section now points at ci-requirements.md rather than restating
it, so the two can't drift apart again; that file is current and is the
one the CI-runner process expects.

Added a "What's in here" table for the five deployable pieces — the
extension, the GPU agent and the ML image were unmentioned, three of the
five. Also corrected the RELEASE_TOKEN write:release scope, which is no
longer "for future release-cutting workflows": it backs the ext-<version>
releases that cache the signed XPI.

refetch_service was the only module under backend/app/services/ with no
test file — and not an inert one: it runs unattended off the recovery
sweep and deletes a file from disk before asking a downloader to replace
it. The frontend cites it by name as the reason the Import tab could be
retired ("imports heal themselves").

The ticket described it as having zero direct coverage. That is true of
the module, but not of the code: test_api_import_admin.py already drives
the happy path end-to-end through the refetch route — file deleted, task
flagged, one dispatch, second attempt a no-op. These 17 tests therefore
target what the route tests cannot reach rather than restating them:

  * every branch of resolve_refetch_source — disabled Source, a
    `sidecar:<platform>:<slug>` synthetic anchor, a platform mismatch,
    the gallery-dl `NN_` numbering-prefix sidecar, the lowest-id pick
    among several candidates, and each of the five ways it declines
    (no sidecar, unreadable JSON, non-object JSON, no platform, no
    artist folder / no matching Artist row).

  * that the file SURVIVES when nothing re-pollable resolves. This is
    the assertion the module exists for: `no_source` is the common case
    on a filesystem-only library, where the file on disk is the
    operator's only copy. The route-level no_source test cannot catch a
    regression here — its path never existed, so an unconditional unlink
    would pass it.

  * that the `refetched` bound is checked BEFORE the unlink, so a second
    sweep leaves the re-downloaded file alone rather than deleting it
    again.

  * that an unlink failure is logged and stepped over, not raised —
    a raise would abort the whole sweep for every other poison-pill row
    in the batch. Exercised with a real IsADirectoryError rather than a
    patched pathlib.

Operator confirms the instance has never used DeviantArt, so there is
nothing for 0088 to quiesce. The migration only ever had two jobs —
disable leftover `source` rows and delete a stale `credential` row — and
both were guards against data that does not exist here.

Removing it rather than keeping a no-op: a migration that runs on every
deploy to touch zero rows is a permanent cost paid for a hypothetical,
and it would read to a future reader as evidence that DeviantArt sources
once existed. `platform` has no CHECK constraint, so retiring the key
needs no schema change of its own.

alembic head returns to 0087.

Executes the 2026-07-05 product decision (FC downloaders = art-dedicated
services only), which removed Twitter/X and Bluesky but left deviantart
fully wired for seven weeks — the half-retired state rule 22 exists to
prevent.

Removed: the PlatformInfo module and its registry entry, the gallery-dl
extractor block, extension_service's artist-page pattern, the extension's
PLATFORMS + PLATFORM_ARTIST_PATTERNS entries, its manifest host permission
and content-script match, the frontend icon/colour/label, and the operator-
facing "supported platforms" list that still advertised it.

Two judgment calls, both recorded in migration 0088:

  * existing `source` rows are DISABLED, not deleted. The row is the only
    record of the artist's DeviantArt URL. Disabling is also required for
    correctness rather than tidiness: with the platform unregistered the
    download path falls through to gallery-dl, which carries its OWN
    deviantart extractor, so an enabled row would have kept downloading
    from a dropped platform.
  * the `credential` row IS deleted — a live session cookie for a site FC
    will never call again.

Adds the invariant whose absence is why manifest.json drifted in the first
place: nothing tied its domain lists back to the platform table. The
extension suite now asserts both directions, plus that no host permission
belongs to an unclaimed domain (`*://*/*` exempted — FC is self-hosted at
an operator-chosen URL the extension cannot enumerate).

Extension version 1.0.10 -> 1.0.11: ci.yml's guard hard-fails a packaged
extension change without a bump. No release is cut — build.yml's
sign-extension job only runs on main.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 5 2e0f8f8c61 feat(cleanup): reclaim orphaned attachments — rows and store blobs (#3068)

PostAttachment's two FKs are both ON DELETE SET NULL, so a deleted post or
artist left the row behind rather than taking it. Nothing ever pruned those
rows, and nothing in the repo had ever unlinked a file under the attachment
store — so both rows and bytes accumulated permanently, invisible to every
existing diagnostic.

Why a disk->DB reconciliation rather than a row sweep: the store is
sha-addressed and idempotent, so ONE blob backs MANY rows. Deleting a row
does not free its blob, and since the artist cascade (#3066) now deletes
its attachment rows outright, a freed blob has no DB pointer left to find
it by. Walking the store and asking "does any row still reference this
sha?" catches orphans from every cause, including ones no future delete
path will think to report.

Preview and apply share `_orphan_attachment_conditions` (rule 93). The
dry-run derives its surviving-sha set by NEGATING that same predicate, so
it is honest about blobs the delete would free rather than counting them as
still-referenced — the one place this was easy to get backwards, so it has
its own parity test.

Guards, each with a reason:
- A blob is written before its row commits, so a just-stored file legitimately
  has no referencing row. Files under 6h are never judged — same guard and
  reasoning as ORPHAN_TEMP_MIN_AGE_HOURS.
- `.partial` staging files belong to cleanup_orphaned_temp_files; skipped
  rather than raced.
- The sha is parsed as the first 64 chars, not via Path.stem: store() takes
  the extension from the source filename, and a URL-encoded basename yields a
  multi-dot suffix that would make stem eat part of the sha.
- A 900s walk budget reports partial=True instead of running to the task's
  hard limit (rule 89).
- TASK_STUCK_THRESHOLD_MINUTES override at 30 (= time_limit 25 + 5). Without
  it a healthy 20-minute walk is phantom-flagged 'RecoverySweep' at the bare
  5-min default — the #883 failure class; its invariant test is mirrored here.

Defaults to the safe preview at both the task and the route, unlike the other
maintenance triggers: this apply unlinks files. Operator-triggered only,
never on a beat.

Ships with its UI (rule 27): AttachmentReclaimCard in Cleanup → Duplicates &
leftovers, built on the existing useMaintenanceTask/MaintenanceTile shapes, so
a run survives navigating away. Surfaces files_failed and partial explicitly,
since both change what the numbers mean.

Also promotes humanBytes to utils/bytes.js — it was byte-identical in
VideoDedupCard and GatedPurgeCard and this card would have been the third
copy. The three divergent `formatBytes` helpers are deliberately left alone.

`project_artist_cascade` is documented as "a read-only projection of what
delete_artist_cascade would touch" and drives the Tier-C confirm dialog,
but it counted only images, sources, thumbs, import_tasks and bytes. It
never counted posts or attachments, both of which the apply destroys.

That is silent in the worst case. `Post.artist_id` is ondelete=CASCADE, so
every post goes whether or not it carried an image — and FC has a large
body-only post population (#1288 measured 694 pixiv posts with text and no
images). Such an artist previewed as `images: 0`, reading as "empty, safe
to remove", while the apply destroyed every captured body, description,
external-link set and raw_metadata snapshot. The danger-zone card already
promised "every image, source, post, and attachment" — the copy was honest
and the numbers were not.

Root of the drift: the preview re-derived its own predicates instead of
sharing the apply's, the same shape as the 2026-06-08 fandom-tag deletion
that rule 93 exists for. So rather than bolt on two counts, both halves now
build from shared `_artist_{images,posts,attachments}_conditions` helpers,
following the `_unused_tag_conditions` / `_bare_post_conditions` style
already in the file. Sources keep no helper — the apply doesn't query them
either, it gets them from the Artist.sources ORM cascade.

The apply also now reports `posts_deleted` (counted before the delete,
since the CASCADE leaves nothing to count after). Rule 93's second half
asks for the apply to be tested, and parity is only assertable if both
halves state the number.

Adds a preview/apply parity test that runs both against one artist and
asserts the three pairs agree AND that the rows actually went, plus a
body-only-artist test covering the case that motivated this.

The confirm dialog's counts grid renders every key, so posts and
attachments surface there automatically; the prose summary line names
posts explicitly, since that is the number that changes how an artist
reads.

`delete_artist_cascade` could abort partway through, and it aborted after
the irreversible half. Deleting an artist CASCADEs to Post (post.artist_id
is ondelete=CASCADE), which SET NULLs post_attachment.post_id — and
`uq_post_attachment_null_post_sha` is a partial UNIQUE on sha256 ALONE
WHERE post_id IS NULL. So any two of that artist's attachments sharing a
sha collapse onto one another and raise.

That shape is ordinary, not corrupt: `_capture_attachment` deliberately
writes one row per post over a single sha-addressed blob, so a creator who
attaches the same pdf to two posts already has two such rows. A
pre-existing filesystem-import row (post_id NULL) with the same sha
collides on its own.

The images and their on-disk files are deleted and committed in 500-row
batches BEFORE the artist row is touched, so the failure landed after
them: images gone, artist and posts alive, files unrecoverable.

Fix: delete the artist's post_attachment rows explicitly first, matched by
artist_id OR by the owning post's artist (artist_id is nullable, so neither
arm alone covers every row). `_repoint_post_links` already guards the
identical collision class in the reconcile path; this is its artist-cascade
counterpart. Migration 0043 reasoned only about upgrade-time safety and
never about this later SET NULL.

The sha-addressed blobs are deliberately left on disk: one blob backs many
rows, so unlinking needs a refcount pass, and this Tier-C op must not
delete bytes its own preview never disclosed.

Adds `attachments_deleted` to the summary, and two regression tests — the
same sha on two posts, and an unrelated NULL-post row that must survive.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 4.8 57e52433d0 feat(agent): idle-unload GPU models to free VRAM when the queue is idle
CI / lint (push) Successful in 3s

CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 38s
CI / integration (push) Successful in 4m3s
The SigLIP embedder + YOLO proposers load lazily then stay resident for the
container's whole lifetime — a 24/7 agent with an empty queue squats on ~5GB of
VRAM doing nothing (operator-observed: 4900MiB held at GPU-util 8% / P8). Sleep
mode only sheds downloaders + poll cadence; even a UI Stop left the models loaded.

Add a monitor thread that unloads the torch-owned models after
cfg.idle_unload_seconds (env IDLE_UNLOAD_SECONDS, default 300; 0 disables) with
the GPU genuinely idle (active==0, buffer drained, no job completed in the
window), then torch.cuda.empty_cache() to hand the blocks back to the driver.
They reload lazily on the next job via the existing _ensure_embedder /
_proposers_for. Covers both sleep-mode idle and a full Stop. Surfaced in
/status (models_loaded) and the agent UI pipe line; the VRAM meter drops too.

Residual: imgutils CCIP/person ONNX sessions + the CUDA context stay resident
(no clean unload API) — idle VRAM drops substantially, not to zero.

Tier-3 frontend DRY for the ML settings cards, plus the F-D2 clamp bug and the
F-D3 card misgrouping.

New primitives (components/common + composables):
- <SettingToggleRow> — the accent-icon + .fc-section-h label + right-aligned
  switch row (HeadsCard x3, CropProposersCard). iconColor prop absorbs the
  on/off dim.
- <SettingNumberField> — compact numeric field that CLAMPS to [min,max] on
  commit. This fixes F-D2: HeadsCard/CropProposersCard previously sent
  Number(raw) straight to the API, so an out-of-range threshold bounced off the
  400 validator (only TranslationCard clamped). density prop for the grid cards.
- useSettingSave(patchFn) — the busy + patch + toast + revert-on-failure flow
  each card hand-rolled (HeadsCard x6 handlers, CropProposersCard, MLBackfillCard,
  VideoEmbeddingCard). Returns ok/false for the optimistic-switch revert.

Adopted in HeadsCard, CropProposersCard, MLBackfillCard (handler only — its
plain labelled switch is a different affordance), VideoEmbeddingCard.

F-D3: MLThresholdSliders.vue actually rendered a "Video embedding" (frame-
sampling) card but sat under "Tagging → Suggestion thresholds". Renamed it
VideoEmbeddingCard.vue and moved it to the "GPU agent & embeddings" section.

Left deliberately (over-DRY guard): TranslationCard uses an inline error ALERT
(not a toast), already clamps its confidence with a NaN fallback, and lives on
the ImportStore — a genuinely different save pattern, so forcing it onto
useSettingSave would change its UX.

Behaviour-preserving refactor; CI has no Vue type-check so this needs a live
UI pass (toggles persist + revert on failure, thresholds clamp on blur, video
card now under Embeddings).

CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 30s

Behavior-preserving (extension JS has lint-only CI + your manual test):
- api.webRoot() single-sources the baseUrl→web-root transform (strip trailing
  slash + /api) that was copy-pasted in background.js's self-update check and
  OPEN_ARTIST_PAGE, whose comments even cross-referenced each other.
- exportPlatformCookies(key) shares the extract→verify→upload spine between
  EXPORT_COOKIES (single) and EXPORT_ALL_COOKIES; it returns a structured
  outcome so each caller keeps its own response/skip messages verbatim.
- popup.js mutedNote(text) replaces the "centered muted note" div hand-rolled
  in the platform-loading, sources-loading, and empty-sources renderers.

No version bump — no behavior change, so it rides the next real ext release
rather than forcing an AMO re-sign + reinstall.

- Promote .fc-section-h to a global token (app.css). It was copied identically
  into 4 cards, and TranslationCard used the class with NO local def — so its
  section headers rendered unstyled. Now fixed everywhere.
- Promote .fc-good / .fc-weak status colours to globals; delete the local copies
  in the GPU/heads cards. (.fc-ok stays local — divergent: on-surface in
  HeadsCard vs success in QueuesTable. .fc-bad stays — different name.)
- Delete 10 identical local .fc-muted redefinitions that crept back after the
  2026-06-09 sweep; the global utility already covers them.
- DbMaintenanceCard: opacity:0.6 muted text → the .fc-muted token (the exact
  anti-pattern that token's comment forbids).
- HeadsCard: collapse byte-identical ratePct() into pct().

CSS-only + one template class swap; no logic change.

keep_runs, label); the two tasks become thin wrappers. The other two recover
tasks are deliberately NOT folded in (library-audit has no prune tail; backup
uses a single started_at cutoff). test_recover_stalled_head_runs.py covers
both wrappers (stalled→error, fresh survives) — previously untested.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 4.8 666b3a2ec8 refactor(ml): DRY pass — shared sweep helpers + table-driven settings (#161)
Consolidate duplication accrued across the ML tagging + settings backend,
behavior-preserving (over-DRY guard applied — the three auto-apply sweep
BODIES stay separate; only their shared inner helpers are extracted).

- _sigmoid / _conflict_scores / _insert_presentation_review (heads.py): the
  score→prob transform (6 inlined sites), the presentation conflict signal
  (2 sites), and the ring-loud PresentationReview insert (2 sites, single-
  sourced so the mode column can't drift on the shared composite PK).
- _applied_or_rejected (training_data.py): the per-tag "applied ∪ rejected"
  skip-set, byte-identical at 3 sweep sites (heads.py x2, tasks/ml.py ccip).
- ccip sweep divergence fixes: import ccip._FIGURE_KINDS + training_data._l2norm
  instead of local copies that silently drift when the canonical changes.
- MLSettings.load / .load_sync classmethods (mirror ImportSettings); route all
  8 scalar_one singleton reads through them (the session.get None-path stays).
- GET serializers for MLSettings + ImportSettings are now table-driven off the
  same _EDITABLE tuples PATCH writes, so a new field can't be silently absent
  from GET (the split that historically dropped fields).
- AUTO_APPLY_THRESHOLD_MIN/MAX constant single-sources the [0.5,0.999] operating
  range across the service clamp + the 5 API validators.
- test_ml_dry_helpers.py pins _applied_or_rejected + _sigmoid.

The extension is installed per-instance from the operator's FC host, so Firefox's
static update_url can't apply (each instance has a different host) and updates
were fully manual. Add a self-hosted-friendly update surface that reuses the
existing public GET /api/extension/manifest ({version, latest_url, sha256}):

- lib/api.js: getExtensionManifest().
- background.js: checkForUpdateInfo() compares the instance's latest published
  version against runtime.getManifest().version (dotted-numeric compare so
  1.0.10 > 1.0.9); CHECK_UPDATE message handler; refreshUpdateBadge() sets a
  toolbar badge via browser.action; a daily browser.alarms check plus on
  startup/installed. New 'alarms' permission (non-prompting).
- popup: an 'Update available — vX' banner with an Update button that opens the
  signed XPI (web root, /api stripped like OPEN_ARTIST_PAGE) → Firefox's native
  install prompt. Never blocks the popup on a failed check.

No backend changes (endpoint already exists). Bump 1.0.8→1.0.9 so this ships;
from here on updates surface themselves instead of needing a manual reinstall.

Symptom (operator-flagged): the extension injected the Add-as-source button on
a Patreon creator you had NOT subscribed to, but it disappeared once you were
subscribed — the opposite of when it's useful.

Root cause (extension logic, not Patreon security): Patreon serves a creator
under three URL shapes — bare patreon.com/Atole, patreon.com/c/Atole, and
patreon.com/cw/Atole (the 'creator workspace' URL you land on once subscribed;
documented in patreon_resolver._VANITY_RE). The button's artist-page gate
(PLATFORM_ARTIST_PATTERNS.patreon in platforms.js) and its byte-mirror probe
pattern (_PLATFORM_PATTERNS in extension_service._derive) only matched the bare
single-segment form and explicitly excluded c/. So the subscribed-view URL
failed the gate → no button. The ingestion resolver already handled all three;
only these two gates were too narrow.

Fix: both regexes now accept optional cw/ and c/ prefixes and drop the strict
single-segment end-anchor, so a creator's inner page (/cw/Atole/posts,
/Atole/membership) also matches — robust to whatever exact shape the subscribed
view uses. Nav-page exclusions (home/search/messages/notifications/library/
settings/posts + post permalinks) preserved. New unit test covers all three
prefixes, sub-paths, and nav-page rejection (both regexes validated identically).

Bump extension 1.0.7→1.0.8 so a fresh signed XPI ships the fix (also exercises
batch-5 web-ext-10's AMO sign path end-to-end on the main build).

Renovate dep-dashboard batch 5. web-ext is the extension's build/lint/sign
CLI (devDependency only; no extension source changes).

Verified against the 8→10 changelog + FC's actual usage:
- All CLI flags we use survive unchanged: --source-dir, --no-config-discovery,
  --ignore-files, --overwrite-dest (build), --channel/--api-key/--api-secret
  (sign). No removed/renamed flags for lint/build/sign.
- v9's one breaking change (.js config files rejected) does NOT apply: we pass
  --no-config-discovery on every command and ship no config file.
- Node: web-ext 10 baselines Node 22. The lint job runs on node:24-bookworm-slim;
  the load-bearing AMO sign job runs on ci-python:3.14 which installs Node 24
  (CI-runner NODE_MAJOR=24) — both satisfy it. Sign is cache-skipped this push
  (extension version unchanged at 1.0.7) but is verified compatible for the next
  version bump.
- The bundled addons-linter jumps to 10.1.0 — the extension.yml lint job (web-ext
  lint over the MV3 manifest) is the CI verifier for any new manifest findings.

CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 28s

Two operator-flagged polish items from the Vuetify-4 review:

Gradient: reshape the nav + sub-header fade from a near-linear ramp to a
hold-then-soft-drop profile — hold high opacity (0.92 → seam 0.68) through the
bulk of the chrome, then ease to transparent over a small section at the bottom
with an intermediate stop, so it tails off softly instead of running a straight
line into a hard edge. Raising the shared --fc-chrome-seam also makes the tab
strips more legible over scrolling content.

Media toggle: FC's global VBtn { rounded: 'pill' } default made Vuetify 4
pill-round each SEGMENT of the All/Images/Videos v-btn-toggle individually, so
the rounded ends collided at the joins. Square the inner segments and clip the
group to one 8px outline — a proper segmented control.

Both are colour/border-radius only — no control height changes, so the filter
bar height and the nav offset (--fc-nav-h) are untouched.

CI / frontend-build (push) Successful in 19s
CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 30s
CI / integration (push) Successful in 3m44s
The app uses a plain sticky TopNav (no v-main), and the nav's height was
hardcoded as 64px in ~6 places: the Explore + Subscriptions full-height
workspaces (height: calc(100vh - 64px)) and every sticky sub-header pinned
beneath the nav (top: 64px — Gallery filter bar, Browse/Series/Settings tabs).

Vuetify 4's MD3 sizing changed the real nav height, so 64px was wrong: the
Explore workspace was sized taller than the space below the nav, overflowed the
viewport, and its breadcrumb tucked under the (taller) nav on 1080p.

TopNav now measures its own height via ResizeObserver and publishes it as
--fc-nav-h on documentElement (default 64px in app.css). Every consumer uses
var(--fc-nav-h) instead of the magic number, so the layout self-corrects to the
nav's real height and stays correct as it reflows (per-view teleported actions,
mobile breakpoint). Also tightens the new chrome-gradient seam — sub-headers now
pin at the nav's exact bottom.

The TopNav and each sticky sub-header pinned beneath it (Gallery's filter bar,
the Browse/Series/Settings/Subscriptions tabs bars) each painted their OWN
dark-to-transparent gradient (Gallery) or a solid surface band (the rest), so
the fade read as happening twice — dark, fade out, then dark again — instead of
one gradient flowing from the nav down through the sub-nav.

Operator asked to treat the sub-nav as part of the nav with a single gradient.
New shared .fc-chrome-continues primitive (app.css): the nav fades from opaque
to a shared --fc-chrome-seam alpha (on views flagged meta.stickyChrome), and the
sub-header continues from that exact seam alpha to transparent over its own
height. Both reference the same var so the alphas meet at the 64px boundary — no
re-darkening, no doubling. Percentage stops keep it spanning the filter bar's
expanding refine panel; the primitive's blur keeps tabs/controls legible where
the old solid bars had none. --fc-chrome-seam is the single tuning knob.

Every view showed a large empty band at the top (operator-flagged during the
Vuetify-4 review; pre-existing). Cause: .fc-content had padding-top:64px to clear
the navbar, but TopNav is position:sticky and already reserves its own space in
the v-app flex column — the 64px was a fixed-navbar leftover that double-counted
the offset. Removed it; content now flows directly below the sticky nav (and the
full-height calc(100vh-64px) views no longer overflow).

Vuetify 4 is a Material-Design-3 styling refresh with revert snippets, not a
component-API overhaul. FC's exposure was small:

- Bump vuetify ^4, vite-plugin-vuetify ^2.1.0, vue ^3.5, engines node>=24.
- Restore the dropped global CSS reset (minimal reset from the upgrade guide) in
  Vuetify's own low-precedence reset layer, so FC's margin-zeroing assumptions hold.
- v-row prop→utility: 'dense' → density=compact (×3), align=center → class=align-center.
- v-snackbar: multi-line removed → min-height=68.
- v-autocomplete #item slot: item→internalItem (item now aliases raw) in TagPicker
  + GalleryFilterBar (item.raw.* → internalItem.raw.*).

ACCEPTED (cosmetic, operator reviews live per plan #158): MD3 typography
(text-body-2 ×73), non-uppercase buttons (v4 dropped the uppercase default),
MD3 elevation. CI verifies BUILD only — the LOOK is the live-review pass.

CI / frontend-build (push) Successful in 26s
CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 30s
CI / integration (push) Successful in 4m9s
Both are Vue-3-compatible majors with no code impact for FC:
- vue-router 5: no breaking changes when not using file-based routing (FC uses a
  plain createRouter in router.js).
- pinia 3: drops Vue 2 + deprecated APIs; FC uses string-first setup-syntax
  defineStore + no custom pinia plugins, so nothing to change.
Phase A of the Vuetify-4 UI framework migration (milestone #158); Vuetify 4 lands
in phase B.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 4.8 fac5ae6ce5 feat(explore): reach dial to escape dense clusters + anti-revisit (#1476)
CI / lint (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend-build (push) Successful in 21s
CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 30s
CI / integration (push) Successful in 3m50s
The Explore walk got stuck in dense signatures — neighbours all too similar, so
forward-arrow couldn't escape and Random was the only exit. Root cause: MMR only
diversifies WITHIN the nearest ~400 pool; in a dense cluster that whole pool is
near-identical, so there's no escape route in it.

- gallery_service.similar(reach=0.0, exclude_ids=None): reach>0 widens the pool
  (cap 400→1000) and _reach_sample strides across an outward-growing distance span
  so the set handed to MMR spans near→mid-far (guaranteed escape routes), not just
  the tight cluster. exclude_ids drops already-walked images. Gallery 'more like
  this' (reach=0) is unchanged.
- api/gallery similar: parse reach + exclude_ids.
- explore store: default reach 0.4 (auto-diversifies without touching the dial),
  pass the breadcrumb as exclude_ids, setReach action.
- ExploreView: a Near↔Far reach slider in the trail.
- tests: _reach_sample math (deeper ranks with higher reach, near kept); similar
  exclude_ids drops walked + reach path runs clean.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 4.8 af0d39ed52 feat(wip): soft title tier — sketch/doodle vocab + ring-loud audit (#1474)
CI / lint (push) Successful in 2s

CI / integration (push) Successful in 3m53s
Extends WIP title-tagging to lower-precision cues (sketch/doodle/scribble) safely.

- wip_title.py: soft matcher (word-anchored; sketchbook/kadoodle don't trip it);
  WIP_TITLE_SOFT_SOURCE + soft SQL prefilter; apply_wip_image_tags takes a source arg.
- training_data._AUTO_SOURCES += 'wip_title_soft' → the soft tier is PROVISIONAL and
  never trains the wip head (a finished "sketch" can't pollute it). Only the hard
  tier (wip_title) + manual train.
- ImportSettings.wip_soft_title_tagging_enabled (OFF by default, opt-in). Migration 0087.
- importer: hard tier wins, soft is the fallback (source wip_title_soft).
- backfill: refactored into a shared _backfill_wip_tier; hard always, soft when enabled.
- heads.soft_wip_conflict_audit + daily beat: score soft-tagged images against content
  heads, flag ring-loud ones (PresentationReview mode=process) for the review strip —
  the operator's "measure if they got falsely tagged" safety.
- api settings toggle; ImportFiltersForm soft toggle.
- tests: soft matcher pos/neg; soft source not a training positive; audit flags
  ring-loud + spares quiet.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 4.8 d9a14e890d feat(system-tags): process auto-tag settings UI + mode-aware review strip (#1464)
CI / lint (push) Successful in 3s
CI / frontend-build (push) Successful in 17s
CI / backend-lint-and-test (push) Successful in 26s
CI / integration (push) Successful in 3m44s
Frontend for the system-tag refactor (milestone #157 step 6).

- HeadsCard: new 'Auto-tag work-in-progress' section (enable + tag-confidence +
  conflict knobs) for wip/editor process auto-apply, mirroring the chrome card;
  copy notes they stay VISIBLE and the head only learns from titles/manual (no
  runaway). Presentation copy narrowed to banner-only.
- HiddenReviewStrip: mode-aware — chrome flags read 'hidden as X / Keep hidden /
  Un-hide'; process flags read 'auto-tagged X / Keep tag / Remove tag'. Same
  endpoints (the backend returns mode), different words.
