The README only ever described a fresh install. There was no update section
anywhere, and `--build` appeared nowhere in the docs.
That matters because `app` and `frontend` are `build:` services with no published
image tag, and Compose has no source-change detection: if an image by that name
exists it is reused. So the natural `git pull && docker compose up -d` reports
"Container app-1 Running", rebuilds nothing, and exits 0. A deploy that shipped
none of the new code is indistinguishable from a successful one — which is how
eleven merged fixes can sit in the repo and never reach the box.
Verified both halves against a real stack rather than asserting them: with a
source change staged, `up -d` left the image ID untouched; `up -d --build`
produced a new image ID and a healthy /health.
Adds an "Updating an existing deployment" section covering backup-before-migrate,
pull, rebuild, health check, and an image-ID comparison to prove a build actually
happened. Also spells out the rollback trap: migrations run on boot and are not
undone by checking out an older commit, so rolling back code without restoring
the snapshot leaves the schema ahead of the binary and the app refusing to start.

Backup. Both documented commands failed on the shipped stack, and the sentence
explaining them was wrong too:
- `pg_dump $DATABASE_URL` — `DATABASE_URL` is only ever in the compose
environment, never an operator's shell, and it points at `db:5432`, which is
compose-internal DNS. The app image has no postgres client either.
- `> /media/backups/…` — `/media` is a named volume mounted inside the app
container, not a host path, and nothing ever creates a `backups` subdirectory.
- `rsync /opt/eventsnap/media/` — that path does not exist anywhere.
- "a single path to back up" — false, and dangerously so: exports were moved to
their own `exports_data` volume precisely so a keepsake (which contains every
photo in the event) can't be served off the media tree. Backing up only
`media_data` silently loses every generated keepsake.
Rewritten as three commands — db via `docker compose exec -T db pg_dump`, and one
`docker run … tar` per volume — all verified against the running stack. The
volume mounts use `/src`, not `/media`: I hit the footgun while testing this.
Docker pre-populates an EMPTY volume from the image's own directory and chowns it
to match, so `-v media_data:/media alpine` tars alpine's cdrom/floppy/usb, writes
them into the volume, and leaves it root-owned so the non-root app can no longer
write. Mounting where the image has nothing avoids all of it. Documented inline
so the next person doesn't rediscover it.
Also correct the architecture notes: `/media/*` no longer routes to the backend
(that static tree was removed as a gating bypass), and `exports_data` was missing
from the volume list — the one volume an operator most needs to know about.
e2e stack: add the `EXPORT_PATH` + `/exports` volume it was missing. The file
says "mirrors production layout"; without these, exports landed on the container's
writable layer at the default path, so export-leak and export-video wrote real
archives into ephemeral storage and the "exports live outside media" invariant
was never actually exercised.
Pre-existing red test, unrelated to the audit: all four 02-upload/quota tests
have been failing since 4464147 "stop /me/quota leaking raw disk to guests"
(2026-07-19), which post-dates the spec's last edit. `setLimitTo` calibrated
`quota_tolerance` from `free_disk_bytes` read through the GUEST's token — a field
that commit deliberately zeroes for non-staff. Dividing by it yields a NaN
tolerance, so every test in the block died in the helper. Read the calibration
inputs through a staff token and keep reading the ceiling back through the guest,
whose limit is the thing under test.

CI ran Playwright (chromium-desktop) + the dependency audit and nothing else. cargo test,
clippy, the frontend vitest suite, svelte-check and the e2e typecheck were all green on a
developer's machine and gated NOTHING.
checks.yml (new): cargo test (with a Postgres service; --test-threads bounded so the
sqlx per-test DBs can't exhaust connections) + clippy; vitest + svelte-check; e2e tsc.
e2e.yml: also run the chromium-mobile project — 22 tests (focus traps, touch targets,
safe-area, viewport reflow) that never ran in CI on a phone-first app.
playwright.config: widen webkit-iphone beyond @smoke (2 specs) to the core guest journeys
(auth/upload/feed) — iOS Safari is the PRIMARY browser here; and retries 2 → 0.
retries:0 is deliberate and against the usual advice: this repo's real bugs are races, a
race is indistinguishable from a flake from outside, and a retry resolves that ambiguity
toward "flake" every time — it took a real 3%-flaky product bug from 1-in-33 to 1-in-37000,
green. A flake here is a bug report.
Not gated: cargo fmt (the tree has never been rustfmt'd — a 112-file reformat would bury
every real diff; do it separately). WebKit widening is unverified locally (needs libavif16
via sudo), so its first CI run may surface real iOS bugs.

Re-review follow-ups (non-blocking quality items):
Tests:
- moderation H1 specs now assert exact `→ 403` instead of bare .rejects.toThrow(),
so a spurious 500 can no longer masquerade as "revocation worked".
- config: added case-insensitivity (upper/mixed-case placeholder) and the
len==32/31 boundary cases for validate_secrets.
- rate_limiter: added the trailing-comma empty-entry case for client_ip (must
fall back, not return "").
(Backend unit tests: 35 pass.)
Docs:
- README: note that with APP_ENV=production a placeholder .env makes the app
refuse to boot and Caddy wait unhealthy — reason is in `docker compose logs app`.
- SECURITY-BACKLOG + sse.rs comment: document that a mid-session ban does not
tear down an already-open SSE stream (new tickets are blocked; low blast radius).

Address the seven findings from the security & deployment review.
High:
- upload: make infer authoritative — reject files it can't identify
(SVG/HTML/JS) and require the detected MIME to be on an ALLOWED_MEDIA
allowlist; derive the stored MIME and on-disk extension from the
detected type, ignoring client filename/Content-Type. Closes the
stored-XSS vector via media served on-origin.
- deploy: rename docker-compose.override.yml -> docker-compose.dev.yml
so the default `docker compose up -d` no longer publishes Postgres
5432 to the host; the port map is now opt-in via -f. README updated.
Medium:
- upload: DefaultBodyLimit::disable() -> max(576 MiB) as an HTTP-level
OOM backstop; handler still enforces precise per-class size limits.
- docker: run backend and frontend as non-root users.
Low:
- social/upload: event-scope toggle_like, list_comments, add_comment,
delete_comment, edit_upload, delete_upload via find_by_id_and_event /
soft_delete_in_event — cross-event IDs now resolve to 404.
- Caddy: site-wide HSTS / nosniff / X-Frame-Options / Referrer-Policy,
plus Content-Disposition: attachment on /media/originals/*.
- .env.example: replace default Postgres password with a CHANGE_ME hint.
Out of scope: localStorage JWT (root cause fixed; httpOnly cookies are a
larger change tracked separately).
Verified: cargo build (no new warnings), cargo test (3 passed),
caddy validate, docker compose config (no 5432 published by default).

- PROJECT.md, README.md, TEST_GUIDE.md: status line refreshed; rate-limiter
doc-vs-code drift fixed; HTML export section rewritten for the SvelteKit-
static viewer; SSE event names + new events documented; config seed block
extended with planned toggles + privacy_note; decision log entries added.
- docs/CONCEPT_HTML_VIEWER.md, docs/CONCEPT_MOBILE_UI.md: banner the design
intent as shipped; point at the source-of-truth code paths.
- docs/CONCEPT_DIASHOW.md: planned-then-shipped design for the live diashow
(two-queue policy, pluggable transitions, data-mode aware).
- docs/FEATURES.md: capability matrix by role (Guest / Host / Admin) plus
prose per area (auth, posting, feed, moderation, admin, export, gestures,
data mode, quotas, privacy note, extensibility).
- docs/USER_JOURNEYS.md: step-by-step flows for every supported scenario,
including PIN reset by host, data mode, privacy note, gestures, and the
admin toggles.
- docs/IDEAS.md: speculative extensions (global diashow, reactions,
multi-tenancy, animation pack, etc.) — explicitly out of v0.16 scope.
- backend/migrations/README.md, frontend/src/lib/README.md: codify the
"never edit a shipped migration" rule and the lib/ conventions
(one store per concern, gestures via actions, sheets via ContextSheet,
transitions as drop-in components).
