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.
Use `megatools dl` (Debian-native apt package) for mega.nz public links rather
than MEGAcmd — no external MEGA apt repo/key to add, one apt line. Adds
`megatools` to the runtime Dockerfile; the fetcher's mega backend now shells
`megatools dl --path <dir> <url>` (key in the #fragment is preserved by the
extractor). gdown (gdrive) is already a pip dep in the runtime image.
NOTE: build.yml builds the image on main/tags only (not dev), so this Dockerfile
change is verified on the next dev→main merge, not by this dev push. The fetcher
code path is unit-tested via the mocked _run_mega_get seam.
With this, all 5 hosts download end-to-end once a celery download-worker runs.

Same fix as the CI workflow — `npm ci` requires package-lock.json and we
don't track one. Missed this in the earlier CI fix. Local `docker compose
up` builds now succeed past the frontend stage.

Forward-looking pin per operator direction ("build for the future and not
rebuild the past"). Touches everywhere a version is named so all
downstream artifacts (Dockerfiles, ruff config, package.json engines)
agree.
Python 3.14 (released Oct 2025) is the current stable. Node 22 is the
most recent LTS line still receiving updates (Maintenance LTS since
Oct 2025); Node 24 (released Apr 2026) goes Active LTS in Oct 2026 and
will be the natural next bump.

Multi-stage build: node:20 builds the SPA, python:3.12-slim runs the app.
Same image handles web, worker, scheduler roles via entrypoint.sh's first
arg. ffmpeg + unar are baked in for FC-2's transcode + archive paths.
