Blocker fixes for the image cache:
- /api/img/{id} now serves cache HITS ONLY and is restricted to ACCEPTED, CANONICAL
articles. It never fetches — the cycle (newsimg.warm) owns all fetching — so the
public endpoint has no SSRF/worker-exhaustion surface. Dropped 1-year immutable
caching (image_url can change) → public, max-age=86400.
- newsimg._safe_fetch: SSRF-safe (reuses enrich._host_is_public + _NoRedirect, http(s)
only, every redirect hop re-validated, body capped). _FetchError distinguishes
permanent refusals (negative-cached via a .fail marker) from transient errors (retry).
- _encode re-encodes only decoded RASTER images to WebP and REJECTS everything else
(SVG, undecodable, decompression bombs via MAX_IMAGE_PIXELS, pathological dimensions);
originals are never retained. prune() also sweeps stale .fail markers.
- Concurrency: fetching only runs inside the cycle lock; writes stay atomic.
Smaller fixes:
- share.py visible image has onerror→this.remove() (degrade to the text unfurl, no
broken icon when an image isn't cached yet).
- share-page Back follows history only on a SAME-ORIGIN referrer (never bounce to an
external site); menu now honors Escape + resets crossing back to desktop (HubBar parity).
Tests: private host, redirect-to-private, hostile SVG/non-image, transient-vs-permanent
failure, LRU prune, warm (accepted+canonical only, idempotent), cache-only endpoint
(404 on not-cached/unaccepted/duplicate, never fetches), share chrome parity. 441 pass.

The cache-feature commit swept warmed WebPs into Git via 'git add -A' — 257 tracked
files (~12 MB) + churn making prod checkouts dirty. Add data/img_cache/ to .gitignore
(beside art_cache) and untrack with 'git rm -r --cached' (live files retained; no
history rewrite). [Codex audit blocker]

Many modern crawlers (AI scrapers, headless Chrome, link-preview fetchers) run JS and
fire the visit/summary_viewed beacon, inflating "visitors" even though there's no
human discovery channel. Apply queries.is_bot_ua() at /api/events — the same filter
the load-error beacon uses — so honest bot UAs (GPTBot, AhrefsBot, headless Chrome,
python/curl, …) are dropped before recording. Response is identical so a bot can't
detect it. Counts read lower but truer going forward (past rows unchanged). Won't catch
UA-spoofing bots; that needs a heavier heuristic. Tests: bot UAs dropped, real browser
counted; existing event tests send a real UA (default client UA contains "python").

Path-only @junk matcher on upbeatbytes.com (*.php, /wp-*, /.env, /.git, /phpmyadmin,
/vendor, etc.) returns 403 instead of falling through try_files to a 200 SPA shell.
Never matches by User-Agent, so real users + Googlebot/Bing are untouched. Applied to
the live Caddyfile (validated + reloaded) and mirrored into the repo snapshot.

Pages tall enough to scroll showed a ~15px scrollbar; short pages didn't — so the
centered top bar jumped left/right as you navigated. scrollbar-gutter: stable on html
(SPA app.css + the server-rendered share pages) keeps the layout width constant. No-op
on overlay-scrollbar platforms (mobile), which never shifted.

The server-rendered /a/<id> and digest pages predated "HubBar everywhere" and showed
a stripped bar (logo + a bespoke Back pill). They can't run the Svelte component, so
add a hand-kept static replica of HubBar (logo + News/Play/Art nav + account glyph +
mobile burger/drop-panel) plus HubShell's borderless ← Back. A signed-in reader's
avatar paints from the same localStorage cache HubBar uses. /a/<id> now looks like any
detail page (/art, /word). Reusable _top_bar_html/_TOP_BAR_CSS/_TOP_BAR_JS/_back_link
helpers; applied to both share pages. Kept in sync with HubBar.svelte by hand (noted).

The on-demand /api/img path runs in the container (only fastapi+uvicorn), so without
Pillow it fell back to caching the original full-size bytes instead of a downscaled
WebP. Add Pillow>=10 to the web extra. The host cycle already had it.

Stop hotlinking news images from third-party CDNs (the source of the "blank until
you refresh a few times" graphic). New goodnews/newsimg.py caches a downscaled WebP
display copy (≤800px) beside the DB, like art_cache:
- GET/HEAD /api/img/{article_id} — resolves id→image_url (allowlisted to our corpus,
not an open proxy), fetch+cache on first miss, serve local after, immutable headers.
- cycle warms display copies for recent accepted-with-image articles (so the FIRST
view is already local) and prunes to a hard size cap (default 1 GB) by LRU eviction.
Frontend now points at /api/img/<id>: the hub lead, every ArticleCard (feed hero +
cards), and the /a/<id> share page's visible image. og:image/twitter:image stay the
source URL so social crawlers fetch the canonical image directly.
Storage is bounded by construction — over the cap, least-recently-used files are
evicted, so it can't grow without limit regardless of ingest rate. Tests cover
fetch/downscale, cache-hit (no refetch), bad-scheme/non-image rejection, fetch
failure, LRU prune, warm, and the endpoint allowlist.

The hub painted the lead news image as a CSS background straight from the source's
hotlinked URL — one transient failure (slow/rate-limited third-party CDN) left a
blank plate until you refreshed and the browser served it from cache. Now the probe
that already runs for cover-vs-figure detection gates the photo: load with up to two
retries (0.5s/1s backoff), reveal the plate only once it's truly loaded (and cached),
and otherwise keep the typographic topic cover. Soft fade-in on arrival; reduced-motion
honored. No more blank-until-refresh.

The load-error log had no way to clear reviewed entries. Add a read_at column to
client_errors and a read/unread model mirroring the feedback inbox:
- GET /api/admin/client-errors?show=unread|read|all (default unread; returns id+read)
- POST /api/admin/client-errors/read-all (mark all unread read)
- POST /api/admin/client-errors/{id}/read {read: bool} (per-row toggle)
Headline stat is now "Unread load errors" (admin_stats.client_errors.unread), so the
red badge clears as you triage. Admin UI: Unread/Read/All tabs, a "Mark all read"
button, and a per-row ✓/↩ toggle; reading an entry drops it from the default view.
14-day auto-prune still bounds the table. Tests cover filter, toggle, mark-all,
404, and gating.

auth.user paints from its localStorage cache, but if the hub is the entry point
nothing had refreshed the session. Revalidate once (guarded on !auth.ready) so the

The cutover put HubBar on / and /news, but HubBar's account icon was a hardcoded
person SVG — so signed-in users lost the avatar the old `/` Header showed. Render
<Avatar> when auth.user.avatar_url exists (fills the circle, no tint peek); fall
back to the person glyph when signed out / no picture.

Both selectors ordered candidates least-recently-shown, then daily.seeded_order()
ROTATED the whole list and took [0] — an arbitrary date-hashed item, undoing the
ordering. Result: repeats (quote id 2 on 6/28+6/29; word "harmony" on 6/25+6/28),
no guarantee a pool item is shown before it recurs.
Fix: daily.freshest(rows) returns the freshest cohort only — every NEVER-shown
item while any remain, else the oldest-shown group. quote/wotd _candidates use it;
seeded_order now picks deterministically WITHIN that cohort. So every pool item is
featured once before any repeat, then cycles oldest-first. Dropped the unused
_NO_REPEAT_POOL window. Tests: no-repeat-until-exhausted (quote + wotd) + a
freshest() unit test. 428 backend tests green.
(Separate follow-up: expand the QOTD pool from 16 → 90+ vetted public-domain
quotes for a longer no-repeat window.)

Cloudflare is DNS-only (grey-cloud) for upbeatbytes.com — no proxy/CDN/edge — so
the warm() step (curl every chunk + key routes through the public domain) wasn't
priming any edge; it just GET every asset from the already-fast static origin,
generating thousands of internal-origin requests per deploy (the "traffic spike"
in the logs). Removed it. Kept the valuable part: chunks-before-shell ordering,
14-day chunk grace, service-worker last. No change for visitors.

- app.css: the playing-game footer-hide targeted the old footer.site; the shared
footer is footer.ub-foot now → during a mobile game the footer lingered. Retarget.
- Homepage hub teaser fetched /api/brief without the reader's prefs, so an excluded
topic could still be featured on /. initPrefs() + append P.param(prefs.data),
matching the News Brief — boundaries now respected on the hub.
(Nonblocking, noted for later: legacy /?view=… redirects are client-side and drop
unrelated params like UTM.)

Per the logo + brand: the name is upbeatBytes (camelCase). Swept all user-facing
strings — titles/og:site_name/og:title, logo alt text, share pages (share.py),
emails (email_send), classifier prompt (llm), digest/unsubscribe (api), PWA
manifest, game share text, sign-in, the SPA shell + patch-static-heads (play

`redir / permanent` mis-parsed — Caddy read the leading `/` as a path matcher and
`permanent` as the destination, so it only matched `/` and emitted a broken 302 to
"permanent". Use an explicit destination URL (matching the www→apex idiom):
`redir https://upbeatbytes.com/ permanent`. Live Caddy reloaded; snapshot mirrored.

Codex's two non-blocking hardening items, folded in before cutover:
- _candidate_articles() now excludes paywalled sources IN-QUERY (before LIMIT 50),
so flagged stories can't consume candidate slots and leave a full brief thin.
Dropped the now-redundant post-fetch filter in build_daily_brief.
- Regressions: history retains a viewed paywalled article; sitemap omits a
paywalled source AND restores it under override="free".
- Aligned test_brief_paywall to the source-level model (paywalled sources carry a
paywalled homepage, as in production) — it had relied on article-URL detection.
425 backend tests green.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
queries.feed was the main chokepoint, but several discovery paths have their own
SQL. Apply the shared source exclusion to all of them so "no paywalls" is truly
site-wide:
- briefs.build_daily_brief: EXCLUDE paywalled candidates (was: demote) — never
stored in a new brief.
- queries.brief: stored-brief retrieval (covers /today + /api/brief) filters the
paywalled source.
- digest.digest_items + followed_digest_items: the morning email + "from what you
follow" omit paywalled sources.
- sitemap(): paywalled article pages excluded from the sitemap.
All reuse queries.paywalled_source_ids (admin override still wins).
Regression tests (test_paywall_exclusion.py): never stored in a new brief; /today
+ digest omit it; followed-source email omits it; Saved retains it; 'free'
override restores eligibility. 423 backend tests green.

Per Jay: don't surface stories people can't read without paying — it's off-brand
("no paywalls") and pointless. Paywalled is source-level (domain rule, admin-
overridable): just 3 sources today (Nature, New Scientist, MIT Tech Review),
~5.4% of accepted articles.
- queries.paywalled_source_ids(conn): live source set (admin override wins).
- queries.feed gains include_paywalled=False (default) → adds `a.source_id NOT IN
(…)`. One chokepoint covers Latest/tags/sources/moods/topics/search/since AND
the brief top-up. Source-level + SQL → paging stays exact, no frontend change.
- brief(): filter the cached/home pool by the same rule; replacement already
avoids paywalled and now rides the feed exclusion too.
- Dropped the now-moot "paywalled below readable" demotion sort.
- Saved/history keep showing items you saved (their own queries, not excluded).
- test_source_paywall_override updated: paywalled source → excluded from the feed
(was: shown with a badge); 'free' override → returns, no badge. 418 tests green.

Base-aware so the frozen `/` is untouched (it's still the live, indexed site
until cutover); the new behavior applies only to /news. At cutover `/` becomes
the hub and only /news's behavior remains.
- defaultView(base): /news bare → Latest (the live firehose); `/` bare → Highlights.
- Brief is canonically /news?view=highlights, with ?view=today kept as an alias.
- Latest is pure chronological on /news — stop passing `home` into it (geo scope
belongs to Highlights). The Closer-to-Home card/dial is hidden on /news Latest;
Highlights keeps the scope dial. `/`'s Latest keeps geo (frozen).
- Back fixed: on /news it shows only for genuine drill-ins (tag/source/search),
not the top-level lanes (Latest/Highlights/Following); `/` keeps its old rule.
- goBack's app-safe fallback lands on the base's default view.
feednav.js gains defaultView + def-aware parse/build; 36 frontend tests (9 new),
build clean. /news stays noindex.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Saved/Boundaries are now labeled pills (icon + text), not bare circles — a
shield alone doesn't read as "Boundaries" on touch. .vh-util is auto-width with
padding; labels show on desktop and mobile.
- Fix the narrow-screen overflow: on a signed-in hub-chrome drill-in the row
(Search+Saved+Boundaries+Follow+Back) exceeded ~320–375px. The view-head now
wraps the action row below the heading — scoped to `.container.hub` so the
frozen `/` feed (fewer controls; Saved/Boundaries in its Header) is untouched.
32 tests green; build clean.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per Codex: HubBar stays purely site-level, so the feed's own utilities live with
the feed. Beside the existing Search toggle (hub chrome only, so `/`'s Header
keeps its own — no duplication): a Saved button (opens the existing flyout) and a
Boundaries/Tune control with a visible active indicator (links to its account
section for now). Same pill styling as Search.
Also flagged the Back-condition trap in-code: once bare /news becomes Latest,
Back must be suppressed for 'latest' too (only genuine drill-ins show it) — to be
fixed at the behavior split, not now (would alter the frozen `/`).
32 tests green; build clean.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per the agreed direction (Codex calls): /news joins the new family without CD.
- NewsFeed gets an explicit chrome="legacy|hub" prop (never inferred from path):
`/` passes legacy (its own Header, unchanged) and /news passes hub (the shared
editorial HubBar). Exactly one bar renders — never HubBar + Header.
- HubBar gains a configurable `newsHref`; the /news instance links News → /news
(active), not the live `/`. Other hub pages keep the default (News → /).
- BottomNav kept (Highlights/Latest/Play/You stay visible); no top-level Back on
bare /news (HubBar Home returns to the hub); contextual Back on drill-in views
is unchanged. No new footer — the global footer stays until the shared Footer step.
Known prominence shift (refinable later): Saved/Boundaries move off the top bar on
/news (reachable via account); Feedback stays via the global footer. /news still
noindex. 32 tests green; build clean.

Housekeeping per Codex:
- Mirror the live @newsHidden rule into deploy/caddy/Caddyfile.snapshot so the
/news noindex protection is reproducibly recorded.
- Extract the feed's routing helpers (feedBase/parseView/viewUrl) into pure
$lib/feednav.js and unit-test them (the base-aware URL generation wasn't
exercised by the prior suite). NewsFeed imports them; behavior unchanged.
(Note: the step-1 commit also swept in data/wotd_audio/renewal.mp3 — a legit
cached pronunciation, not extraction-related; left as-is per Codex.)
32 frontend tests green; build clean.

Pure refactor, no visible/behavioral change. The ~1065-line feed moves verbatim
from routes/+page.svelte into lib/components/NewsFeed.svelte; both routes/+page
and the new routes/news render it. Link generation is base-aware (feedBase()):
on `/` it builds `/?…` exactly as today (bug-for-bug parity); on `/news` it
builds `/news?…` so /news is self-coherent. At cutover, `/` becomes the hub and
the feed lives only at /news.
/news is kept hidden during the transition (noindex, follow) so we never publish
a duplicate indexable feed: route <meta robots> + a Caddy @newsHidden X-Robots-Tag
(follow, so link equity flows). Removed at cutover, when /news enters the sitemap.
27/27 frontend tests green; build clean; /news.html prerenders.

Settled plan (user + Codex) for standing up /news as the feed's home and cutting
/home3 → / without breaking the feed, deep links, or SEO. Drives the upcoming
implementation; next build is the feed extraction (pure refactor). Includes the
four Codex amendments: /news noindex during transition, explicit prototype 301s,
explicit legacy-view mapping (shim before render + /news?view=today alias), and
the footer coverage inventory (FeedbackModal stays in the global layout).

The Wikimedia feed's thumbnail is 330px, which upscales blurry in our hero. Use
originalimage.source instead — it's reliably sharp. (Can't just request a bigger
thumbnail width: for very large source images Wikimedia only serves pre-generated
bucket sizes and 400s on arbitrary widths — e.g. 500px ok, 800/1024px fail.)
- onthisday._best_image() prefers originalimage, falls back to the thumbnail.
- scripts/otd_image_upsize_backfill.py re-fetches each stored MM-DD and upgrades
image_url in onthisday_pool + daily_onthisday in place (ran on host: pool + 6
daily rows now sharp; today's hero verified 200). Only the /onthisday hero
loads this image (home card is text-only), so larger files are a single-page,
one-time load.
- test_best_image locks the prefer-original/fallback behavior.

~half the brief has no image, leaving a blank well above the headline. When an
article has no image_url, fill the well with the topic word (e.g. "science") in
lowercase Newsreader on a soft topic-tinted field, color-coded per topic
(science/tech/environment/health/community/culture/world/space + neutral
default). Same 5:4 footprint as the photo, so card height stays consistent.

6px read high, 12px read low — instead of guessing another px, anchor the label
to the visible cap top via top: calc(0.2 * var(--ys)). ~9px at the 46px desktop
year, scaling down on mobile. Still absolute, so the baseline is untouched.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per Codex: top clamp(4px,0.7vw,6px) → clamp(9px,1.5vw,12px). Label is absolutely
positioned, so this only moves it down ~6px to meet the numerals' visible cap —
the year/date baseline and the rest of the row are untouched.

/onthisday:
- Year alignment restructured per Codex: "2013" is the sole in-flow baseline
anchor; "IN HISTORY" is absolutely positioned in reserved start-padding, so it
can't drag the shared baseline (no more viewport-math/top-offset compensation).
Rule baseline-aligns too. Narrow phones deliberately wrap the year lockup onto
its own row (rule+date below) instead of accidental flex wrapping.
- Render the hero only when image_url exists (pool has imageless items → was a
blank dark hero).
- "The story" → "A little context": the Wikipedia summary is context about an
associated subject, not a narrative of the event. Honest without backend work.
- Figure detection also forces contain on filename hints (seal/flag/logo/map/
diagram/crest/emblem/coat-of-arms) so JPEG logos/maps aren't cropped.
A11y contrast (AA): clay #b06a45→#9a5a38 (eyebrow, button, + homepage card
accent so they still match), small green IN HISTORY #3a7d5b→#367653, rose
attribution/share + Copy button → #8b596d.
/quote: native Share now carries the attributed text (author included, matching
Copy); narrow-phone guard so "QUOTE OF THE DAY" + eyelash don't crowd at 320px.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Raise "2013" 2px toward the line; lower "IN HISTORY" ~3px (offset constant
8→11) so its top sits flush with the numerals instead of riding high.
- Read-more button green → clay (#b06a45) to match the "On This Day" title, per
Jay giving each card its own character.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The chaos was align-items:flex-end + a tight 0.86 line-height letting "2013"
hang below the date's line. Switch the dateline to align-items:baseline so the
year and "Friday, June 26" share one baseline; raise "IN HISTORY" with a
post-layout relative offset (responsive via a --ys var) so it cap-aligns to the
top of the numerals without dragging the baseline. Rule sits at the baseline.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
margin-top 4→9px (text top now level with the numerals' cap) and gap 11→7px

Per Jay: only the eyebrow was meant to go clay — the year stays GREEN to match
the date (both greens on the line tie in the green Read-more button). Layout is
now "IN HISTORY" top-aligned to the left of a large Playfair "2013", not stacked.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Hero now adapts: photos stay full-bleed (cover); seals/logos/diagrams (PNG/SVG
or near-square / extreme aspect) show WHOLE on a light matte (contain) instead
of cropping to nonsense — e.g. today's SCOTUS seal.
- Year: dropped the mint chip/bubble. Now plain stacked type — "In history" over
a larger "2013" — in the homepage card's brown family (kills the green/mint
clash; makes the page echo the card).
- Eyebrow recolored to the homepage "On this day" card accent (#b06a45 clay).
- Added breathing room between the title and the content.

Overlaying the year on an uncontrolled Wikimedia image was a legibility coin
flip (fine on dark photos, cluttered/unreadable on bright seals/logos like the
SCOTUS seal). Per Jay's call, lift "In history · {year}" out of the photo into a
green chip on the dateline row (year in Playfair) and drop the scrim so the hero
reads clean. Dateline wraps on narrow screens.

- Eyelash title (On This Day / Quote of the Day) was rendering ~16px; the mockup
is 22px (CD sized it up for prominence). Bumped to clamp(17px,2.4vw,22px).
- "The story" / "What it means" micro-labels were the mockup's light tan
(#a89880) — low-contrast on the cream card. Darkened to #74633f for readability.
Applied to both /onthisday and /quote so the "letter" family stays consistent.

Rebuilt /onthisday to CD's On This Day design — the QOTD "letter" language in a
green key: deckle frame, "On This Day" eyelash title, a flush dateline rule, a
hero image with a left scrim and the year overlaid (Playfair), the event in
Playfair italic, a "The story" note, and a "Read more on Wikipedia" pill. Wired
to live /api/onthisday/today; hero sits on a deep-green backdrop so transparent
seal/logo images never read as broken. HubShell (bar + Back + footer + icon).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Names the ritual (this date in history) rather than describing it; matches the
/onthisday page + engine. Hero tag becomes "{year} in history" (the old
"ON THIS DAY" there was now redundant with the eyebrow).

Rebuilt /quote to CD's QOTD v3 — a warm letter card with a dashed deckle frame,
an overlapping wax-seal date stamp, a giant faded quote-mark watermark, the quote
in Playfair Display italic, attribution, a "What it means" note, and Copy/Share.
Wired to live /api/quote/today (date → seal, text, author/work, meaning).
Uses our HubShell (HubBar + Back + footer + account icon) per the brief. Self-
hosted Playfair Display (roman+italic, OFL) for the signature quote/watermark/
seal; Newsreader for the body serif + Hanken for sans labels (kept to our stack
to avoid font sprawl). Rose accent matches CD (#a4607a family).

- home3 dropped source_read_minutes when mapping the brief item, so the badge
only ever showed "1 min brief" — include it so "· ~N min full story" appears.
- /art is public but shipped the homepage title/canonical/OG (SSR-off shell, so
svelte:head can't fix scrapers) — add /art to patch-static-heads.mjs.
- Bloom: center the circular motif in the tile's visual field (~43%) instead of
the top illustration zone, so it reads as a medallion (per Jay + Codex).
- Polish: prefers-reduced-motion disables the tile hover-lift; fix stale
patch-play-head.mjs comment reference.

Last change recalculated to the same position (so it looked unchanged) — the
flower WAS centered, just small/floaty vs the denser word/match grids. Enlarge
the petals + ring (bigger radius) so it carries the same visual weight, still
centered above the title.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Bloom used a hardcoded % anchor so it read top-heavy with a gap below. Wrap the
petals in a fixed-size .bloom-ring and flex-center it in the space above the foot
(padding-bottom clears the title) — robust, no guessed percentage.
