The font-inlining guard only caught a RENAME. It asked "did /fonts/<listed
family>.woff2 disappear?", so an ADDITION walked straight past it — and an
addition is the likelier accident: someone doing ordinary app work adds a
display font or a decorative background to the shared theme, has no reason to
open a viewer build config, and ships a keepsake that reaches for
/fonts/Playfair.woff2 on the guest's own disk. font-display: swap hides it, so
the artifact looks right to everyone who happens to have the file locally and
renders in Times New Roman for the couple.
It now asserts the invariant instead of a list: nothing in the emitted
keepsake may reference an external URL. Self-maintaining, and it covers fonts,
images and stylesheets alike. In writeBundle rather than generateBundle —
generateBundle runs more than once and the stylesheet is not inlined on the
earlier pass, so asserting there fails a perfectly good build.
viewer-no-broken-tiles gets a positive anchor. Its "nothing is broken" check
filters img elements, so a viewer that rendered NOTHING yields [] and passes:
the one spec whose whole subject is that the images resolve was the one that
would have stayed green through a total viewer regression. Everything else it
checks comes from the backend and the classic head script, neither of which
needs the viewer bundle to have run.
And a CI job, because neither of the above fires on its own: no workflow,
Dockerfile or script built this viewer, so the guard could sit disarmed
indefinitely, and the committed artifact — compiled into the binary with
include_dir! — could drift from its source with nothing to say so.
The e2e suite had never been run during this audit. It failed 9 of 256; seven of those
predated the audit's changes, established by building a stack from a clean HEAD worktree
and running the same specs against it rather than guessing.
Most were stale assertions rather than product defects:
- quota.spec solved for a target limit using the observed uploader count, but the divisor is
max(active, estimated_guest_count, 1) and that config seeds at 100 — so every limit it
aimed for came out 100x small and every "within quota" upload 413'd.
- rate-limit-shared-nat destructured `ticket` from a 429 body and fetched with
`ticket=undefined`, turning the 429 under test into an unrelated 401. It also faked a
release with no archive on disk, so the mint's pre-check 404'd and the per-day limiter was
never reached; it now does a real release and asserts 200 rather than "not 429".
- ddos allowed only [200,429] from ten concurrent streams, so it failed on the very defence
it exercises: four tickets per session survive and the rest correctly 401. Now asserts
exactly four, which a tightened cap or an inverted eviction order would catch.
- auth-tampering asserted a throttled IP is refused EVEN with the correct password. That
contract was deliberately removed — it let any phone on the venue NAT lock the operator
out of their own admin panel, with a circular escape hatch. Inverted, plus a new check
that a success does not refill an attacker's bucket.
- moderation-ui assumed a ban leaves a comment "stuck on screen"; `list_for_upload` filters
banned authors, so it is hidden from everyone including the host. Now pins the pair that
matters — the ban hides it, and the host's permanent removal survives an unban — and the
UI leg it used to own is restored as a separate test on a reachable comment.
The export specs mint with `?kind=` now that a download ticket is bound to one archive, and
four of them assert the mint's 404 rather than the download's: with the kind always known,
the pre-check refuses up front instead of after charging a daily download for an archive
that cannot be served.

Both the compression worker and the HTML export ran the same invocation:
ffmpeg -i <src> -vframes 1 -ss 00:00:01 -vf scale=… -y <out>
`-ss` AFTER `-i` is an output-side seek. Against a clip of a second or less ffmpeg
exits 0 and writes nothing, and both call sites gated on the exit status:
- the worker wrote `thumbnail_path` and logged "thumbnail generated" for a file that
was never created, so GET /upload/{id}/thumbnail 404s in the live feed;
- the export listed media/<id>_thumb.jpg in data.json while the ZIP writer skipped the
unopenable file, so the keepsake drew a broken image tile.
Any clip at or under a second, which phones produce constantly — mis-taps, Live
Photos, boomerangs. Not data loss; the .mp4 is in both archives and plays. Every
server-side signal stayed green.
New `services/video.rs` owns the extraction for both callers, mirroring the imaging.rs
precedent (created for the same duplication, and it paid off when the max_alloc fix
landed in both workers at once). Three changes in it:
- `-ss` before `-i`, an input-side seek. NOT sufficient alone: verified against the
production image, seeking to 1s in a 1.000s clip is still past the last frame and
still exits 0 with no file. The 0s fallback is what actually fixes this, and 1s is
tried first only because an opening frame makes a poor poster.
- Verify the artifact, not the exit status. This is the check both sites were missing.
- Carry compression.rs's 120s timeout. export.rs had NONE — a hung ffmpeg there would
strand the job at `running` and the keepsake would never complete.
The worker's call used `?`. Tightening the check without also making a missing poster
non-fatal would have been far worse than the bug: every sub-second clip would fail
compression, exhaust its retries and be soft-deleted. It now logs a warning and leaves
`thumbnail_path` NULL, which FeedListCard, VirtualFeed and LightboxModal already
handle.
The export now sets `thumb: ""` and skips the manifest entry when there is no poster —
and does the same for the IMAGE branch, whose decode failure left the identical
dangling reference. No viewer change was needed: +page.svelte already guards
`{#if post.media.thumb}` and falls back to a video tile with a play glyph. The comment
claiming "viewer handles missing thumbs gracefully" was true about the viewer and false
about what the backend sent — the guard never fired because the string was never empty.
e2e/specs/06-export/export-video.spec.ts had DOCUMENTED this as intended behaviour
("the fixture clip is <1s, so ffmpeg extracts no thumbnail frame — but exits 0 …
that's the intended shape here"). sample.mp4 is exactly 1.000s, so every video test in
the suite ran at that boundary and none ever fetched the poster. That comment is now
corrected to say what it actually was.
Tests: 2 unit; a new sample-5s.mp4 fixture so the ordinary first-seek path is covered
at all; video-playback now FETCHES the poster rather than asserting the attribute (the
one extra request that nine rounds of green never made); a new spec covering both
fixtures plus the mirror that a posterless video still uploads and plays; and a
keepsake spec asserting every <img> in the opened viewer resolves — naturalWidth === 0
is exactly the broken-tile case, whatever produced it.
