The box is 2 vCPU / 4 GB / 40 GB, not the 4 vCPU / 8 GB / 80 GB that the audit,
the committed comments and README's sizing section all assumed. That correction
is what the first change is about; the rest are the remaining pre-event items.
THE ARCHIVE COULD BECOME UNBUILDABLE WHILE UPLOADS KEPT SUCCEEDING
`required_free_bytes` is `media × 1.1 × 2` — the ZIP and the HTML viewer are each
gallery-sized — and the export preflight also wants DISK_RESERVE_BYTES on top. The
upload gate, though, only refused below a FLAT 10 GB reserve. On 40 GB that let
uploads run to ~25 GB of media while a release needed `2.2 × 25 + 10` = 65 GB free.
Every upload in that band succeeded and the keepsake could then never be built: the
product's entire promise, failing silently at the end of the night with nobody there.
The gate now enforces the invariant that actually matters — never accept an upload
that would make the keepsake unbuildable — sharing `required_free_bytes` with the
preflight so the two cannot drift into disagreeing about the same question. Uploads
stop at ~8 GB of media on this disk, with a German message naming the cause.
Refusing the 1001st photo beats losing all 1000.
`media_total.rs` backs it: SUM(user.total_upload_bytes) over ~100 rows, cached 5s,
rather than `estimate_export_bytes`'s join across every upload. It counts hidden and
banned users' bytes, which the export excludes — skew in the SAFE direction, so the
gate closes marginally early rather than late. Fails open on a query error.
A test pins the gate against the preflight across the whole gallery-size range, and
a second asserts the per-user floor alone would over-commit the volume — i.e. that
the global gate is what must bind.
THE WATCHDOG ABORTED HEALTHY UPLOADS EVERY TIME A PHONE WAS POCKETED
`Date.now()` advances while a backgrounded phone is frozen but `setInterval` does
not, so the first tick after a screen lock read the whole sleep as silence and
aborted — re-sending a video from byte zero and burning one of five PERMANENT
auto-attempts. The interval is now its own suspension detector: a tick that arrives
125s late for a 5s schedule credits that window back, because a period the watchdog
could not observe is not evidence of silence.
Chosen over a `visibilitychange` listener, which only covers causes that fire that
event — a throttled-but-visible tab, a closed lid and an occluded window all freeze
timers without one — and which would have needed module state, an SSR guard and a
teardown for strictly less coverage. `performance.now()` was rejected because Safari
pauses it across system sleep on some paths and Chrome does not.
The credit buys one fresh window, not immunity: a socket iOS reaped while
backgrounded still aborts ~90s after resume rather than hanging for `xhr.timeout`
(5-60 min) with the queue's `processing` latch held.
Two latent leaks found while in there: `xhr.abort()` on a request already in
readyState DONE emits no `abort` event, so `settle()` never ran and the interval
re-aborted every 5s forever while `activeUploads` kept a stale entry (the ✕ button
silently stopped working); and a synchronous throw from `xhr.send` — a blob whose
backing store the OS purged — leaked the same way. Both closed.
OKLCH MADE THE DELETE BUTTON INVISIBLE ON SAMSUNG'S DEFAULT BROWSER
red/amber/green were never in the @theme block and fell through to Tailwind v4's
`oklch()` defaults, which Safari <15.4, Chrome <111 and Samsung Internet <22 cannot
parse: `var(--color-red-600)` is then invalid at computed-value time, `background-color`
falls back to transparent, and `.btn-danger` renders white text on nothing. Pinned to
Tailwind's own defaults gamut-mapped to sRGB by Lightning CSS — the converter already
in this pipeline — so modern browsers render exactly what they render today. Verified
against seven hex fallbacks it had already emitted for the /alpha forms. rose and teal
(avatar chips) had the same leak. The app CSS goes from 40 oklch declarations to 0.
Also fixes `--color-purple-950`, which was simply missing: `dark:bg-purple-950/50` on
the host dashboard was rendering default violet on EVERY browser, off-brand.
The keepsake viewer only picks this up on a rebuild, so its committed artefact is
rebuilt here too — still single-file, still zero external references.
A BRICKED BOOT LOOKED LIKE A SPINNER FOREVER
With `ssr = false` the page is empty until the bundle mounts, so a chunk 404 after a
redeploy or a dead uplink left the guest on the boot spinner with no message, no
reload control, and in a standalone PWA no URL bar. A 15s timeout in the existing
nonce'd IIFE (no CSP change) swaps in German copy and a reload button. Deliberately a
timeout rather than feature detection: a SyntaxError in the bundle is invisible to any
capability check. Plus a <noscript>, since there was nothing at all to see without JS.
EVERY 4xx WAS INVISIBLE AT ANY LOG LEVEL
tower_http counts 4xx as a success, so it logs at DEBUG while production runs at info.
If guests spend the evening hitting 429s or 413s, the post-event logs said nothing.
Now one WARN per client error; 5xx excluded because Internal already logs its source
chain and the pool-exhaustion 503 logs at construction.
A DEAD FRONTEND SERVED A BLANK 502
`handle_errors 5xx` with an inline German page (the caddy service mounts only the
Caddyfile, so there is no volume to ship a static file through). Verified empirically
against this config, not from documentation: an upstream 404 through `reverse_proxy`
still arrives as untouched `application/json`, and only a dial failure renders the
page. That mattered — the keepsake download navigates a hidden iframe and DEPENDS on a
real 404/429 arriving, and swallowing those would have been worse than the blank 502.
CONFIG CORRECTIONS FOR THE REAL HARDWARE
DATABASE_MAX_CONNECTIONS 30 → 15: sized to 2 vCPU rather than to the guest count.
Since migration 024 a feed page costs well under a millisecond, so connections are no
longer spent waiting, and 30 backends crowd the db container's 1 GB on a 4 GB host.
COMPRESSION_WORKER_CONCURRENCY stays at 2 — the merged heavy-image permit already
serialises anything over 150 MiB, so the "two 48 MP photos" worst case that number was
sized against is unreachable; dropping to 1 would halve light-path throughput and push
more feed tiles onto full-size originals. README's sizing section rewritten for the
actual disk.
Verified: 149/149 backend tests against a live Postgres, clippy clean, 57/57 vitest,
svelte-check 0 errors, eslint clean, vite build, export-viewer rebuild, caddy validate,
compose YAML parse.

The offline keepsake viewer had the same two filter defects as the app: typed
suggestions were capped so a matching tag could be unselectable, and the dropdown used
`onmousedown` with a backdrop that swallowed the selection. Rebuilt into
`backend/static/export-viewer/index.html`, which `include_dir!` embeds in the binary.
The eslint ignores were unanchored, so once the export-viewer's dependencies were
installed its nested `.svelte-kit` output was linted as source. Anchored with `**/`.

The kill-switch previously left comment UI/text visible in several places.
Sweep the whole surface so a comments-off instance shows no trace:
Frontend (main app):
- VirtualFeed grid tile: gate the comment button/count on $commentsEnabled
(was ungated — the only feed surface still showing it).
- admin stats: hide the "Kommentare" count card.
- UploadSheet "Uploads geschlossen" notice, host ban-modal description, and
host/admin unban confirmations: drop the "…und kommentieren" wording.
- export page: drop "Kommentaren" from the keepsake description.
Keepsake export (had no concept of the flag):
- export.rs: thread comments_enabled into the exported data (ViewerEvent),
wired through spawn_export_jobs/recover_exports and their call sites
(host.rs, main.rs).
- export-viewer: gate comment counts (list + grid) and the lightbox comments
section; older exports without the field default to enabled (?? true).
Backend still 403s comment writes when disabled (unchanged) — this is the UI
half so stale clients and archives match.
Verified on the running stack (COMMENTS_ENABLED=false): /event reports
comments_enabled=false, a regenerated keepsake embeds "comments_enabled": false
with no comment UI, and the uploads-closed notice renders "…ansehen und liken."

Rebuild the guest "keepsake" (offline HTML gallery) so it renders when the
extracted index.html is opened over file://. Browsers block external ES-module
scripts and fetch() at origin null, so a normal multi-file SvelteKit build shows
a blank window. Build the viewer as one self-contained index.html (inlined
JS/CSS via vite-plugin-singlefile, standalone non-SvelteKit entry) and inject
the data as window.__EXPORT_DATA__; the backend embeds the built viewer via
include_dir! and writes the data global into index.html when zipping.
Also surface the guest-facing download: a feed banner and the BottomNav Export
tab, both shown once the host releases the export.

Pre-built output regenerated after frontend/export-viewer/src/app.css
started importing ../../src/tailwind-theme.css. Output now picks up the
same @theme tokens and class-driven dark variant as the live app, so
future viewer-side use of bg-primary / dark: utilities will resolve
identically to the main bundle.

Pre-built SvelteKit static output for embedding into HTML export ZIPs.
When viewer source changes, rebuild with `npm run build` in
frontend/export-viewer/ and re-commit this directory.
