Every one of these was found in the pre-event audit, verified against source, and
survives to production on the current main. Grouped by what actually goes wrong.
PHOTOS DISAPPEAR
* compression.rs no longer soft-deletes on a failed derivative. The guest got a
201, watched the card appear, then watched it vanish — the row left v_feed,
find_visible_media and BOTH keepsakes, while its bytes sat on disk for 14 days
waiting for a cleanup nothing announced. No screen anywhere lists compression
failures, so recovery meant hand-written SQL that also had to re-add the
refunded quota. Now it does exactly what the ENOSPC arm beside it already did
and documented as correct: keep the row, serve the original, retry on the next
boot (bounded by derivative_attempts). `upload-deleted` is no longer emitted;
`upload-processed` is, so the card re-renders instead of sitting on a
placeholder.
* A 413 is now a reversible lock, so the blob survives. The quota moves — free
disk falls, uploader count rises — so a guest goes over it having done nothing,
and treating that as permanent meant a 400 MB video was pushed across cellular
in full and THEN deleted from IndexedDB. Gone on both sides, and unrecoverable
for an in-app camera capture that exists nowhere else.
* quota_limit_bytes gained a floor and a stable divisor. The ceiling used to
decrease monotonically all evening; it now settles at max(uploaders,
estimated_guest_count) — a config key that was seeded, validated in the admin
whitelist, and read by no code at all. The floor is clamped to what the disk
can actually back, so a full volume still yields zero rather than handing out
an allowance it cannot honour.
* Because that floor gives up the aggregate guarantee the formula used to imply,
uploads now check a hard 10 GB reserve first, independent of every quota
toggle. postgres_data, media_data and exports_data share one filesystem: the
end state was not a degraded feature, it was Postgres unable to write WAL.
THE ARCHIVE DISAPPEARS
* prune_superseded_archives runs only after the new generation lands. It ran
before the preflight, reasoning the old archive was already unreachable — true
of reachability, false of recoverability. An epoch is a value that can be
rolled back; deleted bytes cannot. Any failed rebuild left the event with NO
keepsake at all.
* The export preflight reserves the same 10 GB. `free < needed` authorised an
export sized at exactly free, which ran for half an hour and landed the box at
zero with the keepsake still unfinished.
THE APP DIES
* The feed reconcile re-reads the id set after its awaits instead of reusing one
captured up to three round-trips earlier. The new-upload SSE handler prepends
during exactly that window, so the row was both already present and absent from
the stale set — prepended twice, and a duplicate key in a keyed {#each} throws
in production, not just dev. The SSE handler and loadMore now dedupe too.
* Added routes/+error.svelte. Without it any uncaught error fell through to
SvelteKit's unstyled English 500 with no reload control — inside a chromeless
standalone PWA with no URL bar, for the rest of the evening.
THE OPERATOR IS LOCKED OUT
* admin_login verifies the password BEFORE charging the rate bucket, and a
correct password is never throttled. The old order made this a denial of
service against its own operator: every guest shares one NAT IP, the check ran
first, so five requests a minute from any phone in the room kept the bucket
full — and the escape hatch needed the admin session being blocked. A generous
separate ceiling still bounds bcrypt CPU.
THE PROJECTOR DIES
* The preload budget is now strictly inside the dwell. At the 3s option the 4s
budget could never land a commit on a slow uplink, so the wall froze on one
photo while the queue drained silently behind it.
* The wake lock retries every 30s while visible, and the page says so on screen
when the browser has no wake lock API. visibilitychange was the only retry
trigger and a kiosk never changes visibility, so one refusal — iOS in Low Power
Mode, say — was permanent.
* Caddy: /api/v1/upload/*/display joins the cacheable carve-out. The backend set
max-age=300 on it and the blanket no-store silently replaced it, so a projector
re-fetched a full-size JPEG per slide, ~2-4 GB over an evening on the uplink
the guests are uploading over.
Also removes Upload::soft_delete, now unreferenced and an unscoped footgun next
to soft_delete_in_event.
Verified: 146/146 backend tests against a live Postgres, clippy clean, 51/51
vitest, svelte-check 0 errors, eslint clean, vite build, caddy validate, compose
YAML parse.

`merge` decided by whether a usable still existed, so the same clip was included or
dropped depending on whether ffmpeg happened to extract a poster — a video WITH a
thumbnail was queued and shown as a frozen frame, one without was skipped. Keyed on
the mime type instead: the projector shows stills only.
The test factory casts through `as unknown as FeedUpload`, so adding a field the queue
reads does not fail typechecking — it fails at runtime, which is how this surfaced as
ten broken tests rather than a compile error. The factory now carries `mime_type` and
the comment says why keeping it in step matters.

Diashow completeness rewrite so every eligible upload is shown regardless of
bursts, disconnects, or library size:
- queue.ts: SlideQueue with live/shuffle queues, allKnown map, recentlyShown
ring; merge(dedup, live-first), remove/removeByUser (prunes recentlyShown),
knownIds for reconcile-eviction. Adds queue.test.ts (burst/completeness/race).
- diashow/+page.svelte: reconcile (full paginate + evict, pre-scan snapshot to
spare concurrent uploads) on mount/reconnect/periodic; catchUpNew paginate-
until-known for bursts with debounced maxWait; hard-cut removals; decode
timeout + candidate fallback + bounded skip so a broken image never stalls.
New ~2048px "display" derivative for big-screen sharpness, decoupled from the
data-saver preview (800px) used on phones:
- migration 016: upload.display_path + v_feed rebuilt (DROP+CREATE, not REPLACE,
to slot the column beside preview/thumbnail).
- compression: generate_image_derivatives emits preview+display (downscale-only
guard, no upscaling); backfill_missing_display regenerates on startup (safe:
logs on error, never soft-deletes).
- upload.rs/main.rs: GET /upload/{id}/display (mirrors preview auth/cache),
/media/displays direct-serve blocked.
- feed.rs + types.ts: display_url in feed/delta DTOs.
- diashow candidate chain: display -> original -> preview.
Verified on the running stack: migration applied, 10/10 existing images
backfilled (2048px cap honoured, small images not upscaled), /display serves
200, /feed returns display_url, diashow cycles.

Transitions never actually animated: Svelte scopes @keyframes names but does NOT
rewrite animation references in inline style attributes, so the inline
'animation: crossfade-in ...' never matched its scoped keyframe — a hard cut, no fade
(Ken Burns' zoom was dead too). Move the animation into scoped classes and pass dynamic
values via CSS custom properties.
- Real two-layer crossfade: hold the outgoing frame opaque beneath the incoming one
(which is decode-gated), so there's no black flash and no decode pop.
- New slide transitions (from below/left/right) as one reusable component; the previous
frame is pushed off the opposite edge in step (a conveyor/push), easeInOutSine 1s.
- Fullscreen toggle button (Fullscreen API) + 'f' shortcut; Esc in fullscreen no longer
also navigates away.
- Controls now reveal on pointer/keyboard activity and fade when idle (cursor hides too)
instead of being always visible.
- wakelock: null the sentinel on the OS 'release' event so re-acquire-on-visible
actually fires (previously the screen could sleep after the tab was first hidden).

diashow only subscribed to SSE events but never called connectSse(), so a
kiosk/projector opening /diashow directly (not via /feed) never opened the
EventSource — the showcase display got a one-time /feed snapshot and no live
updates, showing "Noch keine Beiträge" forever when turned on before any
photos. Open the stream in onMount (idempotent) and close it in onDestroy,
mirroring the feed page.
Raise the default upload_rate_per_hour from 10 to 100 (migration 015, scoped
to installs still on the old default so admin overrides are preserved). Guests
routinely upload bursts of 10-20 photos; the old default throttled the first
burst. Also update the code fallback and the test-mode reseed.
Both verified end-to-end against the docker test stack.

The frontend had no JS/TS linter — only svelte-check. Add flat-config ESLint (typescript-eslint
+ eslint-plugin-svelte) and Prettier (tabs/single-quote, matching the existing style).
Rules encode "catch bugs, not enforce taste":
- svelte/require-each-key KEPT — it is the exact bug class as the feed mis-tap fix. Fixed every
flagged block: keyed activeFilters, filteredUsers, stagedFiles (by previewUrl), captionTags,
admin tabs/jobs/users, the export-viewer suggestions/filters/comments, and the static skeleton
loops.
- svelte/prefer-svelte-reactivity KEPT — inline-disabled only the verified-safe sites (a local
freq Map in a $derived.by, throwaway URLSearchParams query builders), with a reason each.
- svelte/no-navigation-without-resolve OFF — wants resolve() around every goto()/href; taste, not
a bug, and pure churn.
- svelte/no-unused-svelte-ignore OFF — those comments are consumed by svelte-check, which ESLint
can't see, so it wrongly calls them unused; removing them would reintroduce a11y warnings.
- no-explicit-any OFF for *.test.ts only (partial fixtures legitimately use any).
Real code fixes beyond keys: removed a dead jobLabel(), an unused ViewerComment import and unused
catch binding, an unused scroll-lock arg, and replaced an empty interface with a type alias.
Then `prettier --write` (54 files). Formatting only. Verified: eslint clean, svelte-check 0 errors,
vitest 46 passed, vite build succeeds.

Adversarial re-review of the persona-audit + audit-followup rounds (6411747..)
found one HIGH and one MED regression plus LOW gaps. All fixed with coverage.
HIGH — export stale-keepsake resurrected by an open_event race
A reopen landing in the window between a *current* export worker's finalize_job
and its ready-flag flip cleared export_released_at + the ready flags but left the
export_job row `done` at the same release_seq. The seq-guarded flip then still
matched and re-set export_{zip,html}_ready=TRUE on a pre-reopen snapshot; the next
re-release read that stale TRUE and skipped regeneration (`if ready { continue }`),
serving a keepsake missing every upload from the reopen window — the exact data
loss migration 012 exists to prevent. Both ready-flip UPDATEs are now additionally
anchored on `export_released_at IS NOT NULL`, so a landed reopen makes the flip a
no-op and the re-release regenerates cleanly.
MED — queue dedup broke for reloaded items
loadQueue rebuilt QueueItems from IndexedDB without copying lastModified, which the
new addToQueue dedup keys on. A file re-selected after a page reload / PWA relaunch
missed the duplicate check and uploaded twice. Rehydration now carries lastModified
(extracted to a pure, tested entryToQueueItem helper).
LOW
- diashow: clear the upload-processed debounce timer in onDestroy (no stray
post-unmount /feed fetch).
- USER_JOURNEYS §9.5: document the reconnect-delta ban replay (hidden_user_ids /
uploads_hidden_at, migration 013), not just the live user-hidden SSE.
- e2e api-client: drop the misleading hide_uploads param from banUser — the backend
takes no body and always hides; strip the dead boolean at all call sites.
Tests
- Extract isReversibleLock (the terminal-403 KEEP-vs-PURGE-blob discriminator) into a
pure exported helper + unit tests, so the data-loss-critical branch is covered
without an XHR harness.
- entryToQueueItem unit tests lock the lastModified-carry regression.
- Document the export flip-race guard in the reopen/re-release spec (the sub-ms
finalize↔flip interleave isn't deterministically forceable with fast fixtures;
covered by the SQL guard + the end-to-end completeness test).
Verified: backend 40 tests, frontend 44 unit tests, svelte-check 0 errors,
e2e 156 passed / 1 skipped on chromium-desktop.

Follows the perf + security + user-flow work with a role/persona audit (guest, host,
admin, projector) and fixes across three review rounds. Highlights:
HIGH
- Ban now replays on reconnect. A ban isn't a soft-delete, and the `user-hidden` SSE has
no replay, so a client that missed it (esp. the unattended diashow) kept cycling a
banned user's slides. New `uploads_hidden_at` (migration 013) + `hidden_user_ids` in
/feed/delta; feed + diashow evict those users. Applied even on a truncated delta.
MEDIUM
- Locked-upload data loss: a photo staged offline during a lock/release was purged as a
terminal 4xx and lost when the host reopened. New reversible `uploads_locked` error code;
the queue keeps the blob and auto-resumes on the `event-opened` SSE.
- Reopen after release now warns (ConfirmSheet) that it revokes the published keepsake.
- Host "forgotten-PIN" badge updates live (`pin-reset-requested` was broadcast but never
in KNOWN_EVENTS / subscribed); host page also refetches on `pin-reset` so a two-host
race can't hand out a conflicting PIN.
- Ban modal copy fixed (read-only ban, not "session ended"); Degradieren/Sperren/Entsperren
hidden on peer-host rows for non-admins (they always 403'd).
- Host dashboard shows live keepsake generation progress / ready state + link to /export.
- Admin JWT moved to sessionStorage (§11.1) to bound exposure on shared devices.
Export generation guard (H1 from the prior round, hardened): per-(event,type) `release_seq`
(migration 012) with seq-guarded claim/finalize/mark_failed/update_progress, per-generation
temp/final paths, download follows `file_path`, prune only strictly-older generations.
LOW: diashow coalesces upload-processed (avoids self-rate-limit); event-closed reconciles
galleryReleased; /recover gains a forgot-PIN request + drops a stale cached PIN on 401;
delta `>=` tie-break + 429 retry; misc copy/labels.
Adds e2e: ban-replay, upload-lock-code, and rewrites export-reopen-rerelease with a
data-completeness test. Reconciles USER_JOURNEYS §9/§11.
Verified: cargo build clean, 40 unit tests, svelte-check 0 errors, 33 frontend unit
tests, 155 e2e passing on chromium-desktop.

A comprehensive role-based E2E audit (guest/host/admin, across browser
sessions) surfaced one critical and several smaller issues; this addresses
them and hardens the tests that missed them.
Critical
- The client upload pipeline was fully broken: the IndexedDB v1->v2 upgrade
opened a *new* transaction inside the upgrade callback, which throws during
a version-change transaction and aborted the whole upgrade, leaving the
queue object store uncreated -- so no UI upload ever fired. Reuse the
version-change transaction the callback provides, and bump the DB to v3 with
a contains() guard so installs already corrupted by the shipped bug
self-heal on next load. Re-enabled the previously-fixme'd UI upload E2E test.
High / Medium
- Event lock is uploads-only again: likes, comments and browsing stay open
while the event is locked (USER_JOURNEYS 9.3 / FEATURES) -- it was wrongly
freezing social interaction. Updated the event-lock spec accordingly.
- get_original now excludes soft-deleted and ban-hidden uploads, and direct
/media/originals/** serving is blocked, so a hidden user's originals can no
longer be pulled by UUID (all originals go through the checked alias).
- The upload handler reads the file field with an early-abort size cap chosen
from the declared content-type, instead of buffering the entire body before
the size check.
Low
- unban_user mirrors the ban role guard (a host can no longer unban a
host/admin banned by an admin).
- reset_user_pin's UPDATE is event-scoped.
- Admin login returns and stores a real identity (user_id + display name)
instead of a blank session.
- The host user list no longer renders target-actions (ban/promote/demote/PIN)
on the caller's own row, where the backend always rejected them.
- /diashow gains a client-side auth guard like the other protected routes.
- The join page shows the event name via a new public GET /api/v1/event.
Verified: backend cargo build clean, frontend svelte-check 0 errors, full
Playwright E2E suite 144 passed / 1 skipped.

H1: corrected a round-1 over-reach. Bans are read-only per USER_JOURNEYS §10:
the base AuthUser extractor no longer rejects banned users (they keep read
access); Require{Host,Admin} and write handlers enforce the ban via
auth.is_banned → 403 (incl. self-unban). Demoted hosts still lose powers
immediately (live DB role) and are bounced off the dashboard. Also fixed the
login/recover redirect regression on unauthenticated 401.
H2: failed compression now self-heals instead of leaving a permanent broken
card — refund the quota, delete the orphaned original, soft-delete the row;
the frontend toasts the uploader and evicts the card on upload-error.
H3: self-delete, ban-with-hide (user-hidden), and comment-deletes now broadcast
SSE; feed, diashow, and lightbox evict the affected content live instead of
waiting for a reload. sse-eviction.spec.ts covers it.
Riders: feed/+page.svelte also carries the medium truncated-delta pill; host.rs
also carries the low atomic release_gallery claim; admin/+page.svelte also drops
the dead compression_concurrency control (medium).

A fullscreen auto-advancing slideshow any user can start. Design:
docs/CONCEPT_DIASHOW.md.
- lib/diashow/queue.ts: SlideQueue state machine — liveQueue drains first
(FIFO, seeded by SSE upload-processed), then shuffleQueue (refilled
from allKnown minus a 5-id ring buffer of recently shown). Pure logic,
unit-testable.
- lib/diashow/wakelock.ts: Screen Wake Lock wrapper that re-acquires on
visibility change (the OS drops the lock when the tab hides).
- lib/diashow/transitions/{index,crossfade,kenburns}.ts: registry +
the v1 transitions. Adding a new animation is one file + one entry —
the extensibility target from docs/FEATURES §2.9.
- routes/diashow/+page.svelte: fullscreen page, hides bottom nav,
6 s default dwell (3/6/10 configurable), keyboard shortcuts
(Escape exits, Space toggles pause), tap-to-reveal overlay with
pause / dwell / transition / exit. Respects $dataMode to choose
preview vs. original URL.
