Three follow-ups from Codex's audit of the deep-preview/search/dedup work:
- Promote-time duplicate guard: promote_candidate() now re-checks
find_existing_feed() and raises DuplicateFeedError → 409, so an
old/CLI/direct-DB candidate or a race can't bypass the add-time check and
silently overwrite a live source's settings via upsert. (sources scanned
first, so a real source collision wins over the candidate matching itself.)
- postJSON/putJSON/delJSON gain opt-in {timeout} (AbortController, default
none so other calls are unchanged); deep preview uses 120s and surfaces a
calm "timed out" message instead of pinning the button on "Deep-checking…"
if the LAN model stalls.
- feed_key() now lowercases the host only, not the whole URL — paths/queries
can be case-significant; scheme/www/trailing-slash/host-case still collapse.
Tests: test_candidate_deep_preview_and_dedup extended — promote succeeds once,
then a re-promote of the same candidate is refused 409. 224 pytest + 11 vitest.

Three admin Sources upgrades:
- Deep preview: a per-candidate "🔬 Deep preview" button runs the REAL
classifier on an 8-item sample (the same model that judges live articles),
versus the fast keyword heuristic the add/Re-preview path uses. Preview now
carries `classified`, surfaced as a "model-checked" vs "quick estimate"
badge — so the acceptance % is no longer ambiguously heuristic. conn is
released during the ~30-60s model pass; postJSON has no client timeout.
- Search: free-text box over the sources table (name / category / feed URL /
homepage), folded into the existing status filter, with a live match count
and empty state. Makes "is this already added?" a glance.
- Duplicate-add guard: sources.find_existing_feed() + feed_key() normalize
scheme/www/trailing-slash/case, so re-adding a feed that's already a live
source or a queued candidate is refused with a 409 naming where it lives
(DB already enforced exact-URL uniqueness; this catches the near-miss
variants and overwrite-on-promote footgun).
Tests: test_candidate_deep_preview_and_dedup (deep flag wires the model +
uses the small sample; exact/www/slash/case variants all 409). 224 pytest +
11 vitest green.

Codex's finding: cache-as-you-go would pin files Caddy deliberately serves
no-cache (version.json, manifest, word lists, icons) in the SW cache until the
next SW version — silently defeating the revalidate policy for controlled
clients. version.json is the critical one (it's how the app detects a fresh
deploy); stale word lists could drift from the server's validated answer pool.
New isMutablePath() exclusion: the SW steps aside and the browser HTTP cache
revalidates these per their headers.
Telemetry polish (also Codex): the boot beacon now fills the app_version
column with the entry chunk's hashed filename scraped from the shell's own
modulepreload link (no extra fetch) — deploy-correlated load errors become
obvious. Admin list returns + shows it.

Root cause of the intermittent white screen: the shell HTML is no-cache
(cf-cache-status: DYNAMIC), so every page-open does a synchronous round-trip
to the residential origin before any pixel renders — and the SW's network-first
navigation only fell back to the cached shell on REJECTION, never on slowness.
A stalled fetch meant staring at white with a perfectly good shell in cache.
The boot seatbelt couldn't see it either: it lives inside the HTML that hadn't
arrived yet, so slow boots left no telemetry.
- service-worker: race navigation fetch vs 2.5s grace timer. Network wins →
fresh HTML as before; timer/5xx/failure → cached shell instantly, network
response still refreshes the cache in the background. Safe due to the 14-day
immutable-chunk grace window. Caps the white screen at ~2.5s for repeat
visitors on any network.
- app.html: beacon `boot-slow: Nms (html Nms) on 4g` when mount takes >4s —
the "white screen, then it loaded" glitches finally leave a trace, with
HTML-arrival timing to separate slow-origin from slow-JS.
- admin: bot UAs (HeadlessChrome/bot/spider/crawl/…) excluded from the
headline "Load errors today" count — throttled crawlers trip the 10s boot
check routinely (the one recorded error was HeadlessChrome on X11, not a
phone). Bots stay visible in the list, tagged + dimmed.
Tests: telemetry test extended for bot flag + filtered counts. 223 pytest +
11 vitest green.

Daily Word pool curation, full add/delete/import — no redeploys to fix tone:
- Remove ANY pool word, curated or admin-added, via a word_pool_removed
tombstone table. Runtime pool = (static ∪ added) − removed, so even a
baked-in word can be pulled on negative feedback. Reversible: a "Removed"
list with one-tap Restore lifts the tombstone. Lookup now surfaces a Remove
button when in-pool, Restore when removed.
- Import a vetted list (paste or .txt/.csv upload, read client-side): validates
each word (alpha · 5–6 · in guess dictionary), ignores duplicates, and reports
rejects with reasons. Re-adding/importing a removed word lifts its tombstone.
- Word Search theme delete already existed (Edit/Remove per theme) — verified.
Pool stays the clean 251/224; today's noisy LLM enrichment is discarded.
Tests: +tests/test_pool_admin.py, extended test_word_pool_admin. 222 pytest +
11 vitest green.

* New "Word Search themes" panel in the Games tab: enter a theme name + words,
with live validation (4–8 letters, alpha, deduped) and a count vs the 28 needed
to fill all three sizes. An "✨ Suggest a word" button asks the LLM for one
fresh word that fits the theme. Save/edit/remove; authored themes join the daily
fallback rotation alongside the curated ones (wordsearch_themes table). The
system still handles word distribution across sizes + placement.
* Daily Word pool's added-word chips now scroll within a bounded area so the
console stays tidy as the list grows.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* client_error details, not just a count: new client_errors table + POST
/api/client-error (reason/path/user-agent/time) + GET /api/admin/client-errors.
The boot-seatbelt beacon now sends the reason + path (once per page); the admin
Overview lists the recent errors so we can tell chunk vs SW vs API vs JS — the
truth meter for the next day as the new SW propagates.
* Deploy warming now also hits the shell, routes (/play /account /admin), SW,
version.json, word lists, and icons/logo/font — not just immutable chunks.

First games admin tool. A "Games" tab in the operator console for the Daily Word
answer pool.
* Lookup: is a word real (in the guess dictionary), the right length (5/6), and
already in the pool — instant as you type.
* Add: appends to the pool, enforcing the invariant (alpha · 5/6 letters · in the
guess dict) so the daily answer is always guessable. Remove: drops admin-added
words (curated static ones stay).
* Additions persist in a new word_pool table (survives redeploys, unlike the
baked-in JSON); the daily picker reads static pool ∪ DB additions. Guess dicts
shipped with the package (goodnews/data/words-5/6.json) for server-side
validation. Admin-gated endpoints + tests.

Per Codex audit. test_wordsearch_endpoint now asserts the exact promise — small 6,
med 9, large 13, pairwise-disjoint. app.css comment updated to .playing-game (the
class was renamed when the focused viewport was generalized to both games).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per field feedback.
* Each day is now THREE distinct puzzles: the three sizes draw DISJOINT word
slices from a date-shuffled pool (small/med/large = 6/9/13, sum 28 unique).
Curated fallback themes expanded to 30 words each; LLM proposals accepted only
if they supply >= 28 unique words, else fall back. No more repeats across sizes.
* Word Search is now a focused game screen on mobile (same as Daily Word): body
scroll locked + footer hidden (generalized .playing-game), and the grid sizes
to the largest square that fits between the theme and the palette (container
query) — the whole puzzle is on screen, no page scroll.
* Theme placement: full "Today's theme · <name>" on the size-selection screen;
just the theme name on the puzzle itself, saving vertical space for Large.
* cosy → cozy. 🇺🇸

Two reported bugs, same root cause: the fixed-cell grid overflowed its wrapper
on Large, so (a) the last column spilled past the border and (b) the pointer→cell
math drifted across the row, recording finds "off by a letter".
* Grid now uses 1fr columns with max-width = n·32px: the board grows with the
grid and can never overflow (shrinks to fit a narrow phone instead).
* cellAt() accounts for the grid padding/border, so selection is exact edge-to-edge.
* restore() now validates each saved find against the CURRENT grid and drops any
whose cells no longer spell the word — clears stale highlights if the day's
puzzle changed.
Codex follow-ups:
* _ws_propose now requires >= large.count + 4 valid words before accepting an LLM
proposal (else falls back to a curated theme), so a thin LLM result can't
underfill Large. Added a thin-LLM fallback test.
* Cleaned Svelte warnings: removed the now-unused .gamecard.soon CSS, added an
ARIA role/label to the grid, declared gridEl with $state. Build is warning-clean.
* Added a stale-load guard in WordSearchGame.load() so rapid size switches can't
let an older request overwrite the newer selection.

From playtesting findings:
* Pools nearly doubled (115/104 → 228/201) with calm/neutral everyday words
(claps, dance, drench, beach…), not just strictly-upbeat ones — more variety,
~7-month runway. The post-solve "why" prompt reworded to fit neutral words.
* Word Search now stores one theme + word list per day; the grid is built per
request for three SIZE tiers — Small (8×8, 6 words), Medium (11×11, 9),
Large (14×14, 13). Large packs more words = a longer sit ("too fast" fix).
All sizes share the day's theme; every size still code-placed + solvable.
* Word Search themes can now be neutral everyday scenes ("Around the house",
"At the beach", "In the kitchen", "A walk outdoors", "Making music"…), not
only hopeful — same shape as the articles.
* Each found word gets its own colour from a calm palette, in the grid and its
word-list chip. Per-size local progress + best time.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A calm second daily game, same philosophy as Daily Word — LLM proposes, code
disposes.
* LLM proposes a hopeful theme + ~8 words; code validates (alpha/length/dedup)
and PLACES every word in a date-seeded grid, so the puzzle is always solvable.
Curated fallback themes if the LLM is thin. Only placed words are returned;
the solution cells (placements) are never sent to the client.
* GET /api/puzzle/wordsearch → {theme, words, grid, size}. No answer to hide:
the grid and word list are meant to be seen — the play is finding them, which
the client validates by reading the selected line off the grid.
* WordSearchGame.svelte: pointer-drag selection snapped to the 8 straight
directions (mouse + touch), found-word highlighting, no-fail, no pressure
timer — time is recorded quietly and shown at the end with a personal best.
Spoiler-free share. localStorage progress (restores found cells + timer).
* Hub's Word Search card is now live with today's status; cycle pre-generates
both games with the LLM.

Per Codex's v2 hardening. The GET /api/puzzle/word response no longer carries
the answer at all — guesses POST to /api/puzzle/word/guess and the server
returns the colour pattern, computed against the day's answer. The answer (and
the "why") are revealed only once solved or the guesses are spent. This removes
the "open DevTools, read the answer" issue without pretending to be a fortress
(a deliberate crafted request can still peek; there's no leaderboard or prize,
so that's fine). Client keeps local progress/stats; dict validation stays
client-side. Trade-off accepted: each guess needs the API (the site already
depends on it for today's content).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A calm /play space — "after the brief, a small thing to enjoy." Framework-ready
for more games (Word Search next; zen/coloring later).
* Daily Word (5 letters / 6 guesses) + Long Word (6 / 7) — same Wordle mechanic,
Upbeat Bytes flavor (no "Wordle" in the UI). Hopeful answers; after solving, a
one-line "why this word matters."
* LLM proposes, code disposes: answers are picked deterministically by date-seed
from a hand-curated hopeful pool that's pre-validated ⊆ the guess dictionary
(always typeable), avoiding recent repeats; the LLM only adds the optional
"why" (with fallback). daily_puzzles(date, game, variant, payload) stores them
so everyone gets the same daily; the cycle pre-generates with the "why".
* Bundled guess dictionaries (words-5/6.json, ~12.6k/22.4k) for client-side guess
validation — never the LLM. Answer lightly obfuscated (base64) in the payload.
* Private, gentle stats (played/solved/streak, guess distribution); spoiler-free
emoji-grid share. No leaderboard, no timer, no streak-loss drama.
* Play in the bottom nav (replacing Browse, still on the lane rail) + the header.

Two calm returning-reader features.
Since-last-visit (Highlights companion, not a nav lane — per Codex):
* queries.feed gains a `since` filter; GET /api/since?ts= returns the count +
a few accepted/non-dup/visible articles discovered since the reader's last
visit (boundary-respecting; invalid/future ts → 0, no error).
* Home stores last_seen in localStorage (reads prev, then stamps now); on
Highlights, a gentle "Since you were last here, N new calm reads came in"
note with a "See what's new" reveal of a compact inline section. Dismissible.
No badges, no unread counts, no "missed" language.
PWA:
* Real PNG icons (192/512 + full-bleed maskable) rasterized from favicon.svg;
manifest fixed (azure theme to match the brand, PNG icons); apple-touch-icon.
* Minimal service worker: precache the app shell, always-fresh API + /a/ pages.
* Gentle, dismissible install banner (beforeinstallprompt → Install; iOS → the
Share → Add to Home Screen hint). Never nags.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per Codex — turn accounts into a real reason to return, without an algorithmic
feed. Durable interests (sources + tags), not moods.
* DB: user_follows (user_id, kind source|tag, value, unique).
* queries.feed gains follow_sources/follow_tags → the Following feed is
"articles from a followed source OR carrying a followed tag", still respecting
calm filters/boundaries.
* API: GET/POST/DELETE /api/follows (sign-in required; source ids validated);
/api/feed?following=true resolves the user's follows (anon → empty, not error).
* Frontend: follows store (followKeys + toggleFollow, mirrors savedIds); a
Follow button on source + tag/topic views; a "Following" lane in the nav with
a tailored empty state; a Following management section in Account (unfollow).
Digest "From what you follow" deferred to v2 (brief stays first).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* On-site end-cap now says "You're caught up for now." — honest, since Highlights
refreshes through the day (the email keeps the daily "see you tomorrow").
* Anonymous "Get tomorrow's brief by email" now honors the one-tap promise:
sets a pending flag, opens sign-in, and auto-enables once auth resolves.
* Email compliance (RFC 2369/8058): send_email takes optional headers; the digest
sets List-Unsubscribe + List-Unsubscribe-Post=One-Click, and a POST
/api/digest/unsubscribe handles native one-click (GET still serves the page).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per Codex — a per-row Check button that previews a LIVE source on demand,
intentionally read-only and ephemeral.
* POST /api/admin/sources/{id}/preview — admin-gated, safe-fetch + heuristic
preview (reuses the candidate preview path), returns the result. Mutates
NOTHING: no DB write, no poll attempt, no health/state change. 404 on missing.
* UI: per-row Check button with a Checking… state; results in an inline row
under the source (sampled, would-pass %, recent-7d, example accept/skip
headlines) with dismiss; inline error on failure. "Checked just now" is
local UI state only. Heuristic v1 — model deep-check left for later.

Per Codex: source-controlled strings (name, feed_url, last_error, review_reason)
could be read as formulas by spreadsheet apps if they start with = + - @. Add
_csv_cell — prefixes such strings with an apostrophe; numbers pass through
untouched (no risk, and avoids mangling negatives). Routed every exported cell
through it. Test: a =HYPERLINK(...) source name is escaped, never bare.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per Codex v1 — boring-in-the-best-way: inspect/archive operational data outside
the app. Admin-gated, Python csv module, text/csv + attachment disposition.
* GET /api/admin/export/sources.csv — current-state snapshot per source: name,
feed/homepage, status, visible, served/accepted/total, acceptance/duplicate/
accepted-dup/image-coverage %, last success/error, retry-after, review.
* GET /api/admin/export/audience.csv?days= — summary block (visitors, returning,
accounts, feedback, shares) + a blank line + the daily visits/opens series;
range applies to audience, sources is a snapshot.
* source_health now also returns feed_url/homepage. Small download links on the
Sources + Audience tabs.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Bring the supervised source-candidate flow into Sources (Codex's v1 scope), so
adding feeds no longer needs the CLI.
* feeds.safe_fetch_feed: SSRF-safe fetch for UNTRUSTED (admin-pasted) URLs —
http(s) only, every redirect hop re-validated via enrich._host_is_public,
body size-capped, bounded redirects, no cookies. preview_feed gains a
`fetcher` param; the API path passes safe_fetch_feed (NOT the raw fetch_feed
used for already-vetted polling).
* API (admin-gated): GET /candidates; POST /candidates (suggest+preview, gated
before the outbound fetch, no DB conn held during network); /{id}/preview
(explicit re-preview); /{id}/promote (paused by default, returns the new
source + updated candidate); /{id}/reject. rejected stays on candidates only.
* Admin Sources tab: "Add a source" field + a candidate queue showing the
preview (pass rate, recent count, example headlines) with Promote (as paused,
or Activate immediately) / Re-preview / Reject.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per Codex's plan — introduce a lifecycle without a risky "change the source of
truth everywhere" moment.
* Schema: sources.status (active|paused|retired) + content_visible; migration
backfills status from active (active=1→active, else paused), content_visible=1.
* `active` is kept as a SYNCED MIRROR: status active→active=1, paused/retired→0,
so the scheduler/CLI/legacy code keep working unchanged.
* Retire stops polling but keeps articles visible (non-destructive). Hiding is a
separate, reversible lever: content_visible=0 drops a source's articles from
the public feed + brief (read AND build), behind a confirm. Personal saved/
history are untouched.
* API: /sources/{id}/status (validates, mirrors active) + /visibility, replacing
/active. source_health returns status + content_visible.
* Admin: status column (active/paused/retired + "hidden"), Retired filter,
Pause/Resume · Retire/Restore · Hide/Show actions.

/api/admin/stats accepts ?days= (clamped to 7/30/90, default 30) → passed to
admin_stats, which already windows visitors, retention, funnel, sharing, daily
trend, and the top lists by that span. Frontend adds a Window picker on the
analytics tabs (Overview/Content/Audience); changing it refetches and the
windowed labels ("Visitors (Nd)", "Last N days", "Returning visitors (Nd)")
follow. Corpus totals + source health are unaffected (not time-windowed).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Turn the Sources tab into a real management console (per Codex):
* source_health now lists ALL sources (active + paused) with backing metrics:
served / accepted_total / total_articles / duplicates + acceptance & duplicate
rates + review_reason, alongside last success/attempt, next poll, failures.
* Admin endpoints (gated, 404 on missing): POST sources/{id}/active (pause/
resume) and /review (flag/clear with reason).
* Pausing only stops future polling — the feed query has no active filter, so a
paused source's accepted articles stay live.
* Frontend: metric table + Paused filter + per-row Pause/Resume & Flag/Clear
(optimistic, revert on failure). Attention 'resting' now scoped to active.
Retire/Delete intentionally deferred (distinct lifecycle state, later).
