El relay corre código del 2026-08-02 mientras el Desktop ya está en 0.5.18 (21 ago).
Esto cierra el gap.

Qué entra

Los 7 archivos exclusivos del fork sobrevivieron intactos (verificado archivo por archivo):
deploy/railway/{Dockerfile,entrypoint.sh}, deploy/arch-box/*,
.github/workflows/buzz-acp-linux.yml. Upstream no toca ninguno — por eso no hubo conflicto.

Este PR no toca prod por sí solo, pero mergear a railway-deploy dispara el redeploy del relay
y con él las 6 migraciones. Antes hace falta:

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** Buzz pull request, issue, and repository links now show
compact, useful metadata cards in received messages, including messages
sent by agents and the CLI.

**Problem:** Sender-authored snapshots protect recipients from external
preview fetches, but that change also removed recipient-side cards for
trusted Buzz entity links when the sender did not attach snapshots.

**Solution:** Resolve recognized Buzz entities only against the active
relay and show signed repository identity, title, and compact builder
context with the current inline Buzz mark in the favicon slot, but
without avatars, thumbnails, or external image fetches. Entity metadata
wins over conflicting sender snapshots, while unsupported or unavailable
metadata retains a safe text fallback.

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>

**desktop/playwright.config.ts**
Adds the entity-link regression spec to the smoke test project.

**desktop/src/features/messages/ui/useComposerLinkPreviews.tsx**
Treats recognized Buzz entity cards as complete without generating
snapshot tags and retains fallback cards when relay metadata is absent.

**desktop/src/shared/lib/useResolvedLinkPreviews.test.mjs**
Covers kind-scoped entity detection, trusted relay metadata, root-scoped
lifecycle queries, exact single-repository root binding, image-less
pending state, and fallback behavior.

**desktop/src/shared/lib/useResolvedLinkPreviews.ts**
Resolves signed repository, pull request, and issue metadata from the
active relay. Entity roots fail closed unless they carry exactly one
matching repository tag; lifecycle queries are root-scoped before
limits; successful metadata remains stable until relay/community reset,
and PR commit context uses the immutable root event rather than an
unindexed update query.

**desktop/src/shared/ui/compact-link-preview-attachment.tsx**
Uses Buzz repository identity as the compact card provider and avoids
reserving thumbnail space for image-less entity cards.

**desktop/src/shared/ui/markdown.tsx**
Routes message cards through the combined entity/snapshot preview hook.

**desktop/src/shared/ui/markdown/useMessageLinkPreviews.test.mjs**
Proves relay-authenticated entity metadata beats a forged sender
snapshot while preserving mixed-link content order.

**desktop/src/shared/ui/markdown/useMessageLinkPreviews.ts**
Combines recipient-resolved Buzz entities with sender-authored external
snapshots using explicit trust precedence and first-seen ordering.

**desktop/tests/e2e/entity-link-recipient-cards.spec.ts**
Exercises repository identity, PR workflow context, repository metadata,
image-less rendering, and composer send behavior for agent/CLI-style
entity links.

## Reproduction steps

1. Open a channel containing a message sent without `link-preview` tags
whose content includes valid `buzz://pr`, `buzz://issue`, or
`buzz://repo` links.
2. Confirm each card shows its repository identity and signed title;
PRs/issues also show compact lifecycle context, and repositories show
description/status/default branch.
3. Confirm the cards use the Buzz mark in the favicon slot with no
avatar, thumbnail, or reserved image area.
4. Compose and send a message containing a Buzz entity link; confirm
sending is not blocked waiting for a snapshot.
5. Send a message containing both a Buzz entity link and a
snapshot-backed HTTPS link; confirm cards follow content order and the
HTTPS link remains sender-snapshot-only.

## Screenshots

### Recipient view — Buzz-branded metadata cards

Repository identity, title, and compact builder context render with the
current inline Buzz mark in the favicon slot and no avatar, thumbnail,
or reserved image space.

…olve (block#5245)

## Overview

**Category:** fix  
**User impact:** Link previews no longer disappear when a message is
sent while preview metadata or media is still settling. Fast Enter,
rapid Enter, and confirmed-draft auto-send now preserve the preview
without duplicate sends or stale tags.

**Problem:** The composer could look ready before its sender-authored
snapshot tag existed. Send paths could then race preview
resolution/upload, while debounced preview state could attach a tag for
a URL that had already been removed. The same timing also caused
confirmed-draft auto-send to be consumed without sending.

**Solution:**
- Debounce preview resolution to avoid card flicker while typing, then
disable every submit path while a supported external preview settles. A
2-second escape cap still permits a bare-link send if resolution stalls.
- Keep submit synchronous: acquire a composer-local lock before
asynchronous send work, read ready tags from the live URL set, and
reject Enter/form submits while a snapshot is pending.
- Retry confirmed-draft auto-submit until preview settling clears, then
submit exactly once.
- Upload thumbnail and favicon independently. A failed upload shows a
toast and degrades to the surviving media (or text-only) rather than
leaving the card spinning.
- Exclude message-edit mode from preview resolution, upload, and Save
gating. Edit-time preview snapshots remain follow-up block#5273.
- Canonicalize fragment-bearing URLs for preview lookup/snapshot
identity while preserving the original fragment links in message text.

## Link preview state walkthrough

Captured using PR block#5245's actual public Open Graph metadata and artwork.
The deterministic E2E bridge controls only upload timing so the
transient disabled state can be captured reliably.

| State | Expected behavior | Screenshot |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **1. Snapshot upload pending** | The real PR preview is visible, but
Submit remains disabled until its sendable snapshot tag is ready. Click
and Enter cannot send a bare link during the settling window. | ![PR
5245 pasted with its real preview visible and Submit
disabled](https://d24qwcpro867f5.cloudfront.net/repos/buzz/prs/5245/01-real-pasted-submit-disabled.png)
|
| **2. Snapshot ready** | Once snapshot upload settles and the tag is
ready, the same preview remains and Submit becomes active. | ![PR 5245
preview ready in the composer with Submit
enabled](https://d24qwcpro867f5.cloudfront.net/repos/buzz/prs/5245/02-real-resolved-submit-enabled.png)
|
| **3. Message sent** | The sent event carries the snapshot tag and
renders the PR title, description, and artwork inline instead of
degrading to a bare URL. | ![PR 5245 real link preview rendered inline
in the message
list](https://d24qwcpro867f5.cloudfront.net/repos/buzz/prs/5245/03-real-sent-preview-inline.png)
|

## Regression coverage

- Enter during metadata resolution or snapshot upload cannot send early.
- Paste-and-immediate-Enter sends after settling; rapid Enter submits
exactly once.
- Confirmed-draft auto-send waits for settling and fires exactly once.
- Removed/replaced URLs cannot leak stale snapshot tags or media refs.
- Thumbnail upload failure toasts and sends with the surviving favicon.
- Edit mode does not resolve/upload previews or gate Save.
- Fragment variants share a canonical preview while original fragment
links remain clickable.
- Existing ready-preview, suppression, bare-link fallback, and
multi-preview behavior remains covered.

## Reproduction steps

1. Open a channel and paste a supported external URL into the composer.
2. Press Enter immediately, before preview metadata/media finishes
settling.
3. Before this fix, the event could be sent without its preview snapshot
(or confirmed-draft auto-send could be lost). With this fix, submit
waits behind the disabled state and fires once with the matching
snapshot tag.
4. Remove or replace the URL and press Enter inside the debounce window.
The sent event contains tags only for URLs still present in the
submitted content.

…ock#5534)

Hardens the Databricks PKCE OAuth code in
`crates/buzz-agent/src/auth.rs`. Two fixes.

## Token cache is owner-only across its whole lifecycle, and race-safe

The PKCE cache holds both the access and refresh tokens, but `save()`
wrote it with a bare `fs::write` + `fs::rename`. Under a `022` umask the
file landed world-readable, and the fixed `*.json.tmp` temp name races
across concurrent savers sharing `$HOME` — one writer's `rename` can
fail on another's half-written temp.

**On write**, `write_private_cache()` creates a temp file with
owner-only permissions from the moment it exists — mode `0o600` on Unix
via `OpenOptions::mode` — writes and fsyncs it, then renames over the
destination. The rename swaps the inode wholesale, so a pre-existing
cache file with loose permissions is *replaced* by the new private inode
rather than inheriting its mode. `unique_suffix()` (getrandom, timestamp
fallback) gives each write a distinct temp name, and a drop guard
removes the temp on any failure path.

**On load**, owner-only is enforced as a cache lifecycle invariant, not
just a write-path property. A world-readable cache left by an older
buzz-agent was previously read straight into memory and returned on the
fresh cache-hit path without ever invoking `save()`, so a token file
with no advertised expiry could stay exposed indefinitely.
`read_cache()` now funnels every load — initial and cross-process
re-reads — through `read_private_cache()`, which on Unix opens with
`O_NOFOLLOW` (kernel-level symlink refusal, no stat/open TOCTOU),
requires a regular file, and `fchmod`s the pinned handle to `0o600` when
any group/other bit is set. A cache that cannot be secured is treated as
absent, so callers fail closed to a fresh flow rather than trusting an
exposed file.

## OAuth callback no longer reflects untrusted input

The localhost callback embedded the untrusted `error` query param
straight into the HTML response — an XSS sink on the redirect page — and
routed that same raw value into the error string that reaches the logs.

`callback_outcome()` is now a pure function returning `(result,
static_page)`: the browser always sees a fixed literal page that embeds
no request parameter, and failure detail travels only through the result
channel. `sanitize_callback_detail()` strips control characters (CR/LF
log-line injection) and caps length before that detail enters the error
string bound for the logs.

## Deferred: Windows owner-only ACLs

Windows owner-only protection is out of scope for this change. The
goose-parity route (`CreateFileW` with an owner-only SDDL
`D:P(A;;FA;;;OW)`) requires `unsafe` FFI, which this crate's
`#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` prohibits; reconciling that conflict is a
separate decision. Both platform seams — `create_private_temp_file`
(write) and `read_private_cache` (load) — have a `#[cfg(not(unix))]`
branch that relies on the default per-user ACLs and is the drop-in point
if Windows protection is added later. No new dependency and no `unsafe`
are introduced here.

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** YouTube video links now resolve into reliable previews
instead of intermittently appearing as bare links.

**Problem:** Buzz intentionally reads at most **256 KiB** of page HTML
when building a generic link preview. The YouTube response that exposed
this bug was roughly **1.3 MiB**, with its Open Graph metadata beginning
around **686 KiB**—well beyond Buzz's bounded read—so extraction
returned no usable preview. YouTube can move that metadata between
responses, which explains why the same link may appear to work in one
build or request and fail in another; raising the generic cap would
increase bandwidth and allocation for every site while still scraping an
unstable application document.

**Solution:** Route recognized YouTube video URLs through YouTube's
structured oEmbed endpoint instead of parsing raw watch-page HTML. The
provider response is capped at **64 KiB** and retains Buzz's existing
HTTPS validation, pinned DNS/SSRF protection, disabled redirects,
timeouts, metadata bounds, and thumbnail sanitization. Provider failures
return no preview rather than falling back to fragile HTML scraping, and
embed URLs are canonicalized safely, including percent-encoded video
IDs.

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>

**desktop/src-tauri/src/commands/link_preview.rs**
Recognizes supported YouTube URL forms, fetches bounded JSON metadata
from YouTube oEmbed, canonicalizes embed links, and adds response,
URL-boundary, malformed-data, resource-limit, and encoded-ID
regressions.

**desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.toml**
Declares percent decoding as a direct desktop dependency for safe
embed-ID canonicalization.

**desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.lock**
Records the direct dependency in the desktop package lock entry.

</details>

## Reproduction Steps

1. On the base branch, paste a YouTube URL whose Open Graph metadata
falls beyond the first 256 KiB of the raw watch-page response and
observe that no preview is produced.
2. Run this branch and paste a YouTube watch, mobile, music, `youtu.be`,
Shorts, live, or embed URL into the composer.
3. Confirm the preview resolves with the video's title, creator, and
sanitized thumbnail without downloading the full watch-page HTML.
4. Try an embed URL with a percent-encoded ID, such as
`https://www.youtube.com/embed/%64Qw4w9WgXcQ`, and confirm it resolves
to the same video.
5. Try a YouTube lookalike domain or an embed ID containing encoded
separators and confirm it is not routed through the provider path.

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** Previously selected community themes are preserved when
opening a relay through onboarding, while first-time theme migration
still completes for communities with no saved theme.

**Problem:** During community initialization, desktop queried theme
history before establishing live delivery. If a replacement event
arrived while an empty history query was in flight, the client could
incorrectly treat the theme as absent and publish the default over the
user's saved selection.

**Solution:** Subscribe before fetching history, expose whether live
readiness reached EOSE, flush buffered live events before resolving
EOSE, and retain the newest delivered replacement through hydration.
Seed the inherited/default theme only when both live and history
snapshots reach EOSE with no valid or unreadable event; subscription
failures, CLOSED, readiness timeout, relay failure, and unreadable
events fail closed without publishing.

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>

**desktop/src/shared/api/relayClientSession.ts / relayClientShared.ts /
relayClosedRecovery.ts**
Distinguish EOSE from CLOSED/timeout readiness and flush buffered events
before resolving an EOSE fence.

**desktop/src/shared/theme/CommunityThemeController.tsx**
Seed and complete first-community migration only for confirmed absence;
uncertain hydration remains non-publishing.

**desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemePreference.ts**
Keep the inherited appearance for the first migrated community and the
stable default for later empty communities.

**desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemeSync.ts**
Arbitrate live and history results into valid, confirmed-absent,
invalid, or unavailable hydration outcomes.

**Tests**
Cover EOSE/CLOSED readiness, subscription failure, timeout, unreadable
and live-racing events, no-op initialization, and first-to-later
community fallback isolation.

</details>

## Reproduction steps

1. Save a non-default appearance for a community relay.
2. Remove the community locally, then open the same relay again through
onboarding.
3. Arrange for the saved replacement event to arrive live while the
initial history query returns empty.
4. Confirm the saved appearance remains selected and the client does not
publish the default theme over it.
5. On an account with no theme records, open a first empty community and
confirm its inherited appearance is migrated; open a later empty
community and confirm it starts from the stable default.

## Validation

- Pre-push desktop checks, typecheck, and full desktop tests: passed at

…l selection for mesh (block#5289)

Shared compute now has exactly two model choices: MeshLLM's virtual
`mesh`
model, or a model you name. Buzz picks between them in one place, and
buzz-agent no longer knows meshes exist.

## What changed

- **MeshLLM v0.74.0 → v0.75.1.** v0.75.0 added
`degrade_to_single_model`, so a
  `model=mesh` request is answered by one served model when there is no
committee to form, instead of failing. v0.75.1 adds Mesh-LLM#1196, which
skips stale pre-0.75 runtime cache entries rather than aborting startup
on
them — without it, anyone who had run mesh on 0.73/0.74 could not start.
- **Deleted the client-side mesh catalog probe.** buzz-agent used to
poll
`/v1/models` (5s TTL, 30s cooldown, two-observation debounce) to decide
whether `mesh` was safe to send. MeshLLM now decides per request, so the
  polling, its hysteresis, and its 503 fallback are gone.
- **One mapping point.** `relay_mesh_wire_model()` turns the stored
value into
a wire name: `auto` becomes `mesh`, a named model passes through. The
spawn
env, the ACP harness, and the readiness probe all use it, so they cannot
disagree — previously `BUZZ_ACP_MODEL` and the probe both said `auto`, a
name
  the mesh does not advertise.
- **Removed the `nostr-relay-pool` advisory exception.** block#5404 allowed
RUSTSEC-2026-0243 "after mesh-llm migrates to nostr-sdk >= 0.45".
v0.75.1
does, so the retired crate is gone from both lockfiles and the exception
  would only mask a future advisory for it.
- **Deleted `scripts/ensure-mesh-native-runtime.sh`** and its six
justfile call
sites. It built llama.cpp from source into the runtime cache; the app
already
  downloads the signed release runtime itself, and CI never called it.

## Why it is better

**−639 lines of Rust.** Availability is decided by the node that knows
the
answer, per request, instead of by a client cache that could be stale
for up to
30 seconds. A second worker joining now takes effect on the next request
rather
than after two confirming probes.

## Behaviour change

A 503 on an explicit `mesh` request takes the ordinary transport retry
under
the same model instead of failing over to a second one — there is no
second
model to fail over to now. MoA repairs partial committee results
internally
before it reaches that point.

## Validation

`crates/buzz-relay/examples/mesh_agent_e2e.rs` now sends `mesh` where it
previously sent `auto` or the physical model id, so no leg was covering
what
Buzz actually puts on the wire. 4/4 on gemma-4-E4B, gemma-4-26B-A4B, and
Qwen3-8B — including a real ACP tool call through `mesh` into
buzz-dev-mcp,
asserted by reading the written file back off disk.

Hand-tested in the desktop app on both gemma-4 sizes: picked Auto, agent
logged
`model_id=mesh`, replied in channel.

## Not covered

A committee that forms and then loses a worker returns 502, and that
needs two
workers to reproduce — not testable on one machine.

…home-feed (block#5535)

Fixes the 0.5.9 sluggishness Wes reported in app-slowness-mac (channel
list slow, content slow).

## Problem

block#5490 (shipped in 0.5.9) flipped ~20 query sites to
`refetchOnWindowFocus: true` and wired TanStack focusManager to app
focus. Instrumented at that exact commit: regaining focus after >60s
away fires **7 query fetches within 2ms**, including `get_channels`,
which settles at **~3.6s** (production probe: median 3.2s at 1,133
channels — 8 serial round-trips, 1,133-filter last-message batch). In
0.5.8 this burst was zero by configuration. Net: a burst of fetch/parse
contention exactly when the user returns to the app.

Relay ruled out: v0.2.1 small reads are 2–4ms upstream; nothing in
v0.2.0..v0.2.1 degrades the query path. The O(N) `get_channels` design
is a pre-existing issue (June analysis) — this PR fixes the new stampede
that made it user-visible.

## Fix

Raise `staleTime` to 5 minutes on the two expensive focus-refetch
families — `channels` and `home-feed` — so a focus return inside that
window serves cache instead of refetching. `refetchOnWindowFocus: true`
only refetches stale queries, so genuinely old data still refreshes on
return.

Unchanged: focused polling cadence (60s channels / 30s home-feed;
interval refetches ignore staleTime), block#5490 blur quiescence (no changes
to `useDocumentVisible.ts`/`queryClient.ts`), all push-style
invalidation paths (`invalidateQueries` bypasses staleTime), and
channels cold-start revalidate (`initialDataUpdatedAt: 0`).

## Validation

- New regression test
`desktop/src/features/home/focusRefetchPolicy.test.mjs` (4/4): fresh
focus return → 0 fetches; stale → 1; polling constants locked.
- Pre-push gate at the reviewed tree: desktop-check, desktop-typecheck,
full desktop-test **4588/4588**.
- Independent adversarial review (Beth): APPROVE at tree `4e2546ec` —
verified fresh-skip/stale-refetch against query-core 5.100.14 source,
polling-cadence via browser-simulated probe, side-effect sweep of all
invalidation paths clean. Sole CHANGE was commit trailers, fixed by
amend (tree unchanged).

## Known residual

Focus returns after >5min still fire the full burst including the
~3.2–3.6s `get_channels`. This cuts stampede frequency, not magnitude —
the O(N) `get_channels` relay path (RESEARCH/GET_CHANNELS_SLOWNESS.md)
is the follow-up that fixes magnitude.

## Summary

- skip the channel subscription catch-up request when the authoritative
channel window was fetched successfully within the existing five-minute
freshness period
- keep the responsive deferred skeleton for populated channel switches
instead of briefly rendering empty-channel actions
- preserve a real empty-channel intro across the first appended message
only after React has committed that empty state

This is intentionally narrow. It does not claim to solve the separate
sidebar startup cost or general main-thread stalls found during the
investigation.

  - desktop check: passed
  - desktop typecheck: passed
  - branch-skew: passed
- focused cache/surface/lifecycle tests: 62 passed
- manual diagnostic trace after rollback:
  - 16/16 channel revisits skipped catch-up refresh
  - 0 revisit refresh starts
  - 0 populated-channel empty/intro flashes
  - cached switches retained the deferred skeleton-to-list path

No screenshot: the regression is a transient channel-switch state and
request behavior, covered by lifecycle tests and the diagnostic trace
rather than a stable visual diff.

…lock#5569)

## Problem

Canceling the native macOS file chooser leaves the composer's temporary,
detached `<input type="file">` without a `change` event or an explicit
cleanup path. Opening Finder again immediately creates a second detached
input while WebKit may still be unwinding the first picker. The newly
selected files can therefore fail to reach the upload pipeline. Drag and
drop is unaffected because it bypasses this picker lifecycle.

This does **not** add an automatic retry mechanism. “Retry” means the
user's next attachment attempt after canceling or after a prior
selection.

## Fix

- give each composer hook one hidden, body-mounted file input for its
lifetime instead of creating a detached one per click
- reset and reconfigure that input before every open, replace its
handler rather than stacking handlers, and remove it cleanly on unmount
- preserve normal selection, cancel then reopen, selecting the same file
again, and multi-select behavior
- accept canonical `text/html` attachments while continuing to serve and
render them strictly as inert downloads
- keep XHTML, SVG, JavaScript, and executable MIME types blocked

The picker change fixes the ownership/lifecycle bug at its source; it
does not retry failed uploads, add delays, or mask errors.

## Testing

- mandatory pre-push gate: branch-skew, desktop typecheck/tests/check,
Rust tests, and desktop Tauri checks passed on
`ea5a97adf957803935b28d63d32f9f332cf65287`
- `cargo test -p buzz-media --lib` (110 passed)
- `pnpm --dir desktop typecheck`
- focused Biome check for the three picker files
- picker Playwright regression: cancel/no selection then reopen, select
the same file again, and multiple selection (run on the source commit
before integration)
- HTML live-relay response regression added as ignored E2E because it
requires the S3-backed relay harness

## Manual verification

Playwright models cancellation with Chromium's
`FileChooser.setFiles([])`; it cannot exercise the native macOS Finder
panel/WebKit presentation lifecycle. Before merge, manually verify in
the built macOS app:

1. select a PNG normally
2. cancel, then immediately reopen and select a PNG
3. select the same PNG on a subsequent attempt
4. multi-select two PNGs

## Why
Expose PostgreSQL datastore latency within existing request traces so
slow logical database operations can be identified without recording
tenant data or query arguments.

## What
- Add client spans around logical PostgreSQL operations across the
database facade, search, audit, replica fencing, and command persistence
- Use a dedicated `buzz_datastore` target and `db.system.name =
"postgresql"` for filtering and backend classification
- Exclude health-check database calls and scrub raw identifiers and
errors from newly traced paths

## Risk Assessment
Medium — this instruments frequently used datastore paths and increases
trace volume when enabled, but does not change SQL execution or
datastore behavior. Existing OpenTelemetry filtering controls export.

The HTTP bridge request log recorded route, status, and accepted but not
the event kind, so typing indicators (kind 7) and their deletions (kind
5)
were indistinguishable from real messages (kind 9). Every agent turn
produced
accepted:true lines whether or not a message was actually sent, which
twice
led debuggers to conclude a silent agent had published successfully.

Add kind to the Ok outcome and the tracing::info line so the publish

self-describing without a database query.

## Summary

- let Virtua own the initial visible timeline range instead of passing
every loaded row to `keepMounted`
- populate the existing bounded retention window after the virtualizer
reports its first settled viewport
- cover a 10,000-row timeline to prevent an all-history initial mount
regression

## Why

`useTimelineRetention` initialized its retained-key set with every
loaded timeline key. Those indices were passed to Virtua's
`keepMounted`, effectively defeating virtualization during initial
channel positioning until `onScrollEnd` pruned the set.

On a large real channel this grew WebContent into multiple gigabytes and
blocked the renderer main thread for 20+ seconds while WebKit laid out
and painted the retained rows. Starting with no retained rows restores
Virtua's visible-range mount; the existing reader-neighborhood and
visual-tail retention is populated once the viewport is measured.

## Validation

- `node --import ./test-loader.mjs --experimental-strip-types --test
src/features/messages/ui/useTimelineRetention.test.mjs`
- pre-push hook at `8e86a189de7e9a8f2cb119396c8f912ed9dacd6e`:
branch-skew, desktop-check, desktop-typecheck, and all 4,671 desktop

- manual ablation against PR block#5599 on the affected profile: catastrophic

A NIP-25 reaction whose target is a project root or project comment

channel_id is None on the reaction write path. The conformance-trace
emission asserted a channel was always present:

channel: channel_label(channel_id.expect("reaction path has channel")),

so the worker panicked at ingest.rs:2824. The row was inserted before
the

retried,
and the duplicate branch carried the same expect, head-of-line blocking
a

Follow-on to block#5453/block#5454's localStorage work — found while investigating
app-slowness reports on a real profile.

## Problem

`ReadStateManager.persistLocalState()` serialized and rewrote **all
three** read-state localStorage blobs (`buzz.channel-read-state.v2`,
`.publishable.v1`, `.source-created-at.v1`) synchronously on every
context advance. On a real profile (1,643 contexts, ~450K chars across
the three blobs) this produced ~880KB of localStorage sqlite WAL growth
per 30 seconds at idle, with writes every ~5s — steady main-thread
serialization + sync IPC for no user-visible benefit. Observed WAL size
on the affected profile: 94–114MB.

## Fix

- Local persistence coalesced behind a **1s trailing-edge timer**: a
burst of N advances produces one `writeStoredReadState` (one write per
blob).
- Pending dirty state **flushes synchronously** on `pagehide`, hidden
`visibilitychange`, `destroy()`, and before each relay publish — disk is
current before any relay event goes out.
- Hydration still persists immediately. Publish debounce (5s), merge
logic, and blob formats unchanged (`DEBOUNCE_MS` renamed to
`PUBLISH_DEBOUNCE_MS` only).

## Accepted residual

A hard kill (SIGKILL/power loss — not webview teardown) inside the 1s
window loses ≤1s of local read-state advances; relay max-merge bounds
the effect to a message flickering back unread. On the record per
review.

## Validation

- `readStateManager.test.mjs`: fake-timer/mock-storage coverage —
exactly one 3-blob write per burst (zero before the timer fires),
hidden-flush cancels the timer and persists, hydrate persists
immediately, pre-publish flush. Suite 26/26.
- Push gate at the pushed commit: desktop check, typecheck, full desktop
unit suite 4,670/4,670.
- Independent adversarial FULL REVIEW: **APPROVE** at tree `371a02cf`
(commit metadata rewritten afterward for attribution; tree identical) —
all six `persistLocalState` call sites traced, lifecycle/leak checks
(StrictMode remount, pubkey change), no external readers of the blob
keys.

…lock#5599)

Desktop input latency regressed sharply for users on v0.5.9 and worsened
on latest main: multi-second stalls when clicking back into the app,
slow fresh boots, intermittent lockups, and scroll/mouse degradation.
Reverting to `119a84897` (pre-0.5.9) was confirmed to resolve it,
isolating the regression to that range. Profiling a live production
renderer plus a commit-level audit of the range found three independent,
additive causes — fixed here — plus a long-standing `get_channels` cost
that made every remaining refetch expensive, also addressed here.

## 1. Focus-return refetch storm (`refetchOnWindowFocus`)

block#5490 wired TanStack's `focusManager` to app focus and flipped ~20 query
sites to `refetchOnWindowFocus: true`. A focus return after >60s away
fires them all within milliseconds — and a click into an unfocused
window *is* a focus return, so the burst runs before the click is
processed. That is the "click into the composer, wait 5 seconds"
symptom, and it also explains why mouse input feels worse than keyboard
(clicks arrive with focus transitions; typing happens while already
focused). A 5-second `sample` of a live production renderer caught a
single window activity-state transition consuming ~1.25s of main-thread
time, dominated by `JSON.parse` in the focus listener's microtask drain.

block#5535 already established the fix pattern but applied it to only two
families (channels, home-feed). This PR extends the same 5-minute
`staleTime` discipline to the remaining families: pulse (×5), workflows
(×4), agents (×4), forum (×2), presence, user-status, custom-emoji,
channel-templates, and the persona catalog. Polling cadences and
push-invalidation paths are untouched — interval refetches and
`invalidateQueries` both bypass `staleTime`, so live-update behavior is
unchanged. Each gated family exports its focus-refetch policy as an
options object that the production hook spreads into `useQuery`, and a
`focusRefetchPolicy.test.mjs` drives a `QueryObserver` with that same
production object — locking the policy behaviorally (fresh focus return
→ 0 fetches; stale → refetch) and failing if a hook's
`staleTime`/`refetchOnWindowFocus` wiring drifts.

Four families deliberately keep tighter freshness, all surfaces where
the 5-minute gate would suppress the only refresh path and none of which
feed the app-wide storm: `repo-sync-status` keeps its fresh focus
refetch (its inline comment documents the "committed in a terminal,
switched back to the app" flow as intended); the workflow-runs list
stale-gates at 10s because a remotely-started run has no push
invalidation and its conditional 1s poll is off while the cache shows no
active runs; the workflow list queries (`useChannelWorkflowsQuery` and
the all-channels aggregate) stale-gate at 10s because they have no poll
and no relay subscription, and mutation-driven invalidation only covers
this renderer — remote workflow creates/edits/deletes surface only via
focus refetch; and the managed-agent log stale-gates at one poll tick
(30s) so returning to a live agent log refreshes immediately. Run
approvals keep the 5-minute gate under
`RUN_APPROVALS_FOCUS_STALE_TIME_MS` — their focused 10s poll already
covers freshness.

## 2. Synchronous localStorage sweep on the boot/focus path

block#5453's stale-cache sweep synchronously `getItem` + `JSON.parse`s every
whitelisted localStorage entry on the main thread (multi-MB on seasoned
profiles), scheduled with a `requestIdleCallback` timeout of 1.5s that
guaranteed it landed mid-boot, and re-armed on every hidden→visible
transition — stacking it onto the exact moment the focus storm fires.
block#5454's `trimSelfProfileCaches()` additionally scanned every
localStorage key on every `writeSelfProfileCache()` call (which fires
per relay self-profile delivery at boot).

Now: the first sweep waits `BOOT_SWEEP_FLOOR_MS` (30s) after startup,
the scan is time-sliced across idle callbacks, and the visibility
trigger is removed — boot-delayed plus hourly still covers the 14-day
TTL contract. The sliced sweep re-checks staleness immediately before
each removal (a key rewritten fresh mid-sweep survives), isolates
per-key storage errors so one bad entry can't strand the rest of the
snapshot, defers oversized values once rather than parsing them on a
zero-budget slice, guarantees forward progress on timeout-fired
callbacks, and cancels its scheduled slice when stopped. The profile
trim keeps a lazily-initialized memoized key count so the common
under-cap write is O(1); the full parse scan runs only when the count
exceeds a cap, resyncs if external deletions made it stale, and a failed
scan skips the trim instead of aborting the write. Sweep semantics
(rules, TTLs, eviction) are unchanged, and tests cover the scheduling,
slice-progress, error-isolation, defer-once, and trim short-circuit
behaviors.

## 3. The macOS window was never opaque

block#5478's glass appearance is correctly opt-in at the CSS layer, but the
compositor cost was baked in deeper than its native `on_webview_ready`
transparency call: the main window is declared `"transparent": true` in
`tauri.conf.json` (added for the original glass work in block#1671), which
makes tao call `NSWindow.setOpaque(false)` at creation and resolve every
later `set_background_color(None)` to `clearColor` — and no runtime
`setOpaque(true)` path exists through tauri, while wry's runtime
background setter can only force the WKWebView's `drawsBackground` off,
never back on. So "restore the platform default" was unreachable: every
launch, glass or not, ran with a non-opaque NSWindow, defeating
WindowServer's opaque-window compositing fast path and forcing full
window compositing every frame — compounded by the existing
`backdrop-blur` chrome overlapping the scrolling timeline. This matches
the compositor-shaped symptoms (scroll and pointer input degrading
first).

The window is now created opaque (`"transparent": false`) and the
NSWindow layer is never made transparent at runtime. Glass never needed
a transparent window: behind-window `NSVisualEffectView` vibrancy
renders inside opaque windows (this is how Finder and Notes draw vibrant
sidebars); it only requires a transparent WKWebView canvas, which the
`set_window_vibrancy` enable path already establishes at runtime
(`macos-private-api` compiles that in independent of the window flag).
Enabling glass installs the vibrancy layer and then makes only the
webview canvas see-through; disabling clears the vibrancy layer — the
canvas may stay non-drawing afterwards (wry's flag is one-way at
runtime), which is harmless because glass-off CSS paints fully opaque
above an always-opaque NSWindow. The boot-path first-frame backing
writes touch only the NSWindow backing color and are therefore inert to
glass state regardless of how they order against the `ThemeProvider`'s
vibrancy call on a persisted-glass-on cold boot. Glass-off users (the
default) get an end-to-end opaque window from boot for the first time.

## 4. `get_channels`: serial round-trips and a multi-MB payload on every
refetch

The stale gates in (1) cut refetch frequency; this cuts the cost of the
refetches that legitimately remain (boot, and focus returns after more
than 5 minutes away — previously still a multi-second stall).
`get_channels` made ~8 fully serial relay round-trips (~3.2–3.6s at
1,100+ channels), then shipped the full `ChannelInfo` list — including
every channel's member pubkeys — across IPC, where the renderer's
`JSON.parse` of the multi-MB payload froze the main thread (the ~1.25s
stall captured in the live sample).

- **Concurrent stages**: the membership chain, the open-channel
directory scan, and the hidden-DM snapshot run concurrently, as do the
member-count and last-message queries that follow. The critical path
drops from ~8 sequential round-trips to 2 phases. Filters, limits,
pagination, and merge semantics are unchanged.
- **Not-modified short-circuit**: the command now takes a
client-supplied content hash (FNV-1a 64 over the channel list,
canonicalized by id and excluding `last_message_at`) and omits the
channel list from the response when nothing else changed. Last-message
timestamps — which change on nearly every message anywhere — ship as a
small separate map that the client overlays onto its cached list with
reference preservation, so React Query's structural sharing also skips
downstream re-renders. On a typical refocus the renderer parses
kilobytes instead of megabytes. The hash is stored in the query cache
itself, tying its lifecycle to the data it describes so a community
switch can never leak a stale hash.

The E2E mock bridge speaks the new payload shape — including the
complete `last_messages` map the client treats as authoritative — and
hash canonicalization plus overlay reference-preservation are
unit-tested on both sides.

…lock#5607)

When a user's agent runtime is `buzz-agent` with no cached Databricks
OAuth token, the desktop app's passive model-discovery surfaces were
forbidden from launching interactive auth. Discovery failed silently, so
the model dropdown showed only built-in fallback models behind a vague
"Could not load live models for `databricks_v2`" note (reported
internally by Nick and Jose).

## What changed

Both discovery surfaces — the passive draft-form discovery and the
explicit saved-model picker — now launch the browser OAuth flow,
matching goose's behavior. The only behavioral difference between them
is cooldown handling:

- **Passive draft discovery** fires on every form-state change, so a
failed, cancelled, or timed-out sign-in records a per-host cooldown (5
min) that suppresses re-popping the browser on the next keystroke. While
the cooldown is active it returns the "sign-in required" guidance
instead of relaunching.
- **The explicit model picker** is a deliberate user action, so it
always launches and clears any stale cooldown first.

Safety rails:

- A 150s hard timeout (`AUTH_FLOW_TIMEOUT`) bounds the whole interactive
flow so an abandoned SSO tab fails discovery cleanly rather than wedging
the dropdown. Success clears the cooldown; failure and timeout both
record it.
- `AuthCooldown` recovers from a poisoned lock rather than wedging every
future sign-in on one panic.

The frontend maps the terminal Databricks sign-in states to typed,
actionable copy in `formatModelDiscoveryErrorStatus`: "sign-in required"
is a muted note pointing at the picker and `buzz-agent auth databricks`;
a failed or timed-out sign-in is a warning pointing at the explicit
retry. Other Databricks failures fall through to the existing generic
notice.

## Scope

Changes are confined to Databricks discovery and its frontend status
formatter — no `agent_models.rs` call sites are touched. The
interactive-auth helper takes an injected timeout so the
timeout/cooldown policy is unit-testable without a live browser.

## Deferred

Cooldown keys use the raw trimmed `DATABRICKS_HOST`, while the catalog
and OAuth cache normalize trailing slashes
(`crates/buzz-agent/src/catalog.rs:96`,
`crates/buzz-agent/src/llm.rs:2046`). So `https://workspace/` and
`https://workspace` share credentials but get separate cooldown entries
— an equivalent-spelling change to the host field mid-cooldown can
re-pop passive OAuth once within the 5-minute window. Self-limiting (one
extra browser launch, never auth corruption). Follow-up: a
`trim_end_matches('/')` on the cooldown key plus an equivalent-host
test, picked up with the coordinator migration if
[block#5545](block#5545) ever merges.

Channels carry a kind-39000 `about` description that the harness never
surfaced to agents. This delivers it in the per-turn `[Context]` block
so an agent knows what a channel is for without having to ask.

## What changes

- `relay::ChannelInfo` and `queue::PromptChannelInfo` gain a
`description: Option<String>` field.
- The `about` tag is parsed in both metadata paths: the startup
discovery map (`merge_discovered_channels`) and the lazy
`fetch_channel_info` lookup. Blank or whitespace-only values become
`None`.
- `format_context_hints` renders a `Description:` line under `Channel:`
for channel- and thread-scope turns. DM turns never render it.

## Safety

- The description is newline-collapsed to a single line before
rendering, so a multi-line `about` value can never spoof another
`[Context]` field.
- It is capped at 500 characters on a UTF-8 char boundary, with a `…`
truncation marker.
- Unresolved channel metadata renders no `Description:` line.

Session creation is untouched — the description rides the existing
per-turn `[Context]` block that already carries `Channel:`.

## What

Bumps `webbrowser` from `1.2.1` to `1.2.4` in both lockfiles
(`Cargo.lock` and `desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.lock`) to clear
[RUSTSEC-2026-0257](https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2026-0257).

## Why

The advisory landed in the RustSec DB and flipped the `Security` job
(`cargo-deny check`) red on `main` — the same job passed on identical
lockfile state before the advisory was published. `webbrowser` 1.2.1
substitutes the URL into the Unix `BROWSER` env template *before*
tokenizing, allowing browser argument injection (e.g.
`--remote-debugging-port`). `crates/buzz-agent` calls
`webbrowser::open()` for the OAuth flow
(`crates/buzz-agent/src/auth.rs`) with an internally-constructed HTTPS
URL, so practical exploitability is low, but the gate is correctly
blocking. Fixed in `1.2.2`+.

## Scope

Lockfile-only. The `crates/buzz-agent/Cargo.toml` constraint is already
`webbrowser = "1"`, so no manifest change is needed. `webbrowser` 1.2.4
pulls in `objc2-app-kit` as a new transitive dependency; the
`windows-sys` edge churn re-unifies to versions already present in the
lockfile (no new `windows-sys` version is introduced).

## Verification

- `cargo-deny check` passes locally on the pinned toolchain (`advisories

## Summary

- restore the post-subscribe channel-window refresh that closes the gap
left by a live subscription starting at the current second
- prevent an unresolved, pageless channel window from replacing a
populated timeline cache with its first live event
- replace the invalid freshness-gate tests with a regression reproducing
the populated cache + pageless window + first live event state from the
report

## Root cause

This was a data-projection bug, not a virtualized-row failure. PR block#5577
skipped the post-subscribe refresh for a fresh cache even though
`subscribeToChannelLive` starts at `since: now`, leaving events between
the cached page and subscription establishment undiscovered. A
successful but pageless companion window could then receive one live
event and project that one-row overlay over the populated message cache.
Reload fetched page zero and restored the conversation.

## Summary

Adds a durable, operator-controlled V1 for deleting an entire Buzz
community without deleting another tenant's data.

The workflow is exposed through `buzz-admin deletions`:

- `sweep` records independent fleet storage-taxonomy observations
- `submit`, `list`, `inspect`, and `approve` manage a deletion request
- `unblock` resumes a fail-closed request after an operator records
remediation identity and reason
- `run` and `drain` execute bounded work

Requests advance through a PostgreSQL-backed state machine and stop at
`retention_pending` after logical deletion has been independently
verified across PostgreSQL, object storage, and Redis.

This PR ships the engine and CLI, not a continuously running worker or
Kubernetes packaging. For V1, a cluster/VM administrator invokes
`/usr/local/bin/buzz-admin` from the existing relay image, for example
with `kubectl exec` or an equivalent container/VM exec path.

## What whole-community V1 removes

For the target community, V1 removes:

- rows from the allowlisted community-scoped PostgreSQL catalog,
including members, profiles, authored events and bodies, DMs, reactions,
mentions, memberships, tokens, workflows, moderation, audit, feedback,
and rate-limit state
- media sidecars and upload-attribution records under
`_meta/<community>/` and `_uploads/<community>/`
- Git repository pointers under `repos/<community>/`
- Redis keys under `buzz:<community>:*`

The community row survives as a permanent tombstone, and deletion
control-plane records remain as evidence of the request, approval,
execution, and result.

## Safety model

Deletion is not a broad `DELETE CASCADE` followed by optimistic cleanup.
The destructive boundaries are durable and fail closed.

### 1. Inventory and approval

- `submit` resolves the target and freezes the schema plus summary-only
storage inventory.
- Approval is bound to the exact request, community, and frozen
inventory digest.
- Unsupported manifest versions, malformed keys inside the target's
owned prefixes, live scoped-table/write-fence coverage drift,
frozen-inventory mismatch, and approval mismatch block execution rather
than guessing. Migration and catalog revision numbers are not
authorization gates; the executor validates the live safety shape
instead.
- Storage inventory is server-side prefix scoped to exactly:
  - `_meta/<community>/`
  - `_uploads/<community>/`
  - `repos/<community>/`
- The deletion path never lists the whole shared bucket and has no
arbitrary per-community object cap. Its listing work is proportional to
the target community's bindings, not total fleet storage.
- Fleet-wide taxonomy sweeps remain independent observability. They
report unknown writer shapes but do not gate deletion submission,
fencing, or destructive progress. Maintainers must add deletion taxonomy
coverage whenever a new community-owned object-key class is introduced;
writer-coverage tests bind the current media and Git writers to that
contract.

### 2. Quiesce, fence, and destructive freeze

- Writes continue through submission, inventory, and approval. They stop
when execution moves the target into `quiescing` and then establishes
the durable fence.
- Already-admitted external effects finish under heartbeated
serving-write leases; the exact admitted lease may renew while the
community is quiescing, but new lease acquisition is rejected. The
executor drains admitted leases before destructive work.
- Invite minting after quiescing begins fails as typed `AccessDenied`
(HTTP 503 at the relay boundary) before an invite can be persisted.
- Database triggers enforce the community write fence across the
complete catalog of community-scoped tables. Startup/readiness and
destructive execution validate that catalog so a newly added but
unfenced table cannot silently escape.
- **Named isolation assumption — fresh write snapshot.** Every writer
transaction that can reach a community-fenced relation must use
PostgreSQL `READ COMMITTED`; each guarded write therefore observes a
statement snapshot no older than acquisition of the community deletion
lock. `REPEATABLE READ` and `SERIALIZABLE` can retain a pre-fence
snapshot and are unsupported for writers. The writer pool refuses
non-`READ COMMITTED` sessions at connection setup, and both SQL fence
functions reject an explicit per-transaction isolation override with
SQLSTATE `25000`. Configuration-delivered bad isolation can surface
through SQLx as a pool-acquire timeout because every `after_connect`
attempt is rejected; the precise `community writes require READ
COMMITTED isolation` reason remains observable when the SQL guard is
reached. Read-only replica transactions are outside this assumption.
- Holding the shared advisory lock until the guarded write executes is a
separate liveness condition: under `READ COMMITTED`, releasing it early
does not permit resurrection because the trigger rechecks the fence, but
it can turn a fleet sweep into a statement-wide SQLSTATE `55000` abort.
- After the fence closes writers, storage is re-enumerated into chunked
side-table rows. Per-prefix counts and digests bind those concrete keys
to the destructive manifest.
- Manifest chunk insertion, update, and deletion are protected after
freeze. This closes the race where an unbound key could otherwise appear
after the manifest was committed.

### 3. Checkpointed destruction

- Target-owned object bindings are deleted from the frozen destructive
manifest in bounded batches with durable progress.
- The concrete key list lives in chunked side-table rows rather than one
request-row JSON value. It supports large communities, resumable
execution, and terminal cleanup.
- Missing objects are accepted as idempotent crash-window outcomes;
malformed ownership, changed evidence, and unexplained target-prefix
drift fail closed.
- PostgreSQL purging remains scoped by `community_id`, including the
guarded NIP-RS hard-delete path discovered with real Desktop kind
`30078` read-state data.
- Redis cleanup explicitly scans and `UNLINK`s only
`buzz:<community_id>:*`. Natural expiry is insufficient because some
keys, including tunnel generation counters used as fencing state, are
deliberately persistent.

### 4. Independent verification

- PostgreSQL logical absence is checked after purge.
- The three target-owned storage prefixes are freshly inventoried again
and must be empty.
- Redis requires two complete empty namespace scans.
- Only after all three stores pass does the request advance through
`logically_verified` to `retention_pending`.

## What V1 deliberately does not erase

### Shared content-addressed storage

Per-community deletion removes bindings, metadata, attribution records,
and Git pointers. It does **not** physically delete fleet-shared CAS
bytes that another community may still reference:

- media blobs and thumbnails
- Git manifests, packs, and indexes (`manifests/`, `packs/`, and `idx/`)

Safe reclamation requires a separate fleet-wide reachability and
retention GC. Unknown keys elsewhere in the shared bucket do not block
one community's deletion; malformed or unrecognized keys inside that
community's three owned prefixes still fail closed.

### External retained copies

The online logical-deletion proof does not erase object
versions/replicas, database backups/WAL, CDN copies, provider retention
copies, or observability exports. Those require their own retention and
purge controls.

### Member-only erasure

This PR erases a whole community. It does not implement the different
operation "erase one npub while preserving the community."

Removing membership or accepting NIP-09 is not member erasure. A
member-only workflow would need to find and selectively remove or redact
authored event content and pubkeys, profile data, DMs, reactions,
mentions, memberships/roles, tokens, workflows/subscriptions, upload
attribution, moderation/audit history, repository attribution, and
identity embedded in tags or JSON. It would also need explicit rules for
ownership transfer, surviving replies and thread metadata, audit-chain
integrity, immutable Git history, and shared-CAS reachability. That
requires a pubkey-level fence and selective graph rewrite; it is a
separate deletion product, not a safe extension of this whole-tenant
worker.

## In scope

- migration `0029_community_deletion.sql`: requests, approvals, leases,
manifest chunks, checkpoints, tombstones, and the universal write-fence
catalog
- durable executor leases, generations, heartbeats, retry/block state,
and resumable stage transitions
- operator-driven `sweep`, `submit`, `list`, `inspect`, `approve`,
`unblock`, `run`, and `drain` commands
- serving-path fences for database writes and external effects across
event ingest, media, Git, workflow, push, invites, mesh/tunnel, and
related paths
- target-prefix-only storage inventory, summary manifests, post-fence
destructive chunks, and bounded batch deletion
- exact community Redis namespace purge and two-pass absence
verification
- cross-community isolation, crash/resume, manifest-integrity,
writer-taxonomy, and schema/migration regressions
- desired-state `schema/schema.sql` support without requiring a SQLx
migration ledger

## Deferred / not covered

- dedicated Helm/chart worker Deployment, service account, secrets,
probes, resources, and network policy
- autonomous `buzz-admin deletions worker` poll loop and worker-only
health server
- least-privilege separation among migration, relay-serving, and
destructive execution roles
- fleet-wide shared-CAS physical GC
- backup/provider/CDN/observability retention completion
- member-only erasure
- provider-native conditional-delete improvements
- a general force-continue escape hatch; permanent safety failures
remain fail closed unless an operator remediates the cause and records
an audited `unblock`

The removed continuous-worker implementation remains deferred; no remote
follow-up branch is claimed by this PR.

## Validation

### Current PR head and repository state

Current pushed head: `359d8402ee15f049768f54156f67b953c7a7e2ed`, rebased
onto `cc9a2f783375e51a6e8d1f2f9d01d5f7e22813d1` (`origin/main` at push
time). The complete PR diff is now 47 files, 9,834 additions, and 517
deletions.

The bespoke source-scanner stack was removed to keep this PR scoped to
community deletion. Tyler/team requested the underlying fenced-write
safety behavior, not `ast-grep`,
`crates/buzz-db/tests/community_fenced_writes.rs`, its 27 fixtures, or
the new `scripts/lints/community_*.yml` rules. Those scanner-specific
files, dependencies, Hermit links, and runner wiring are absent from the
current tree. The production database write fence, startup/destructive
live-catalog validation, and deletion behavior remain.

Source validation on this exact SHA passed:

- `cargo fmt --all -- --check`
- `bash -n scripts/run-tests.sh`
- `cargo nextest run -p buzz-db --all-targets`: 102 passed, 173 skipped,
0 failed
- `cargo nextest run -p buzz-deletion --all-targets`: 10 passed, 9
skipped, 0 failed
- `cargo nextest run -p buzz-admin --all-targets`: 1 passed, 0 failed
- affected-package/all-target Clippy with warnings denied
- lockfile consistency
- Helm 3.16.4 lint and all 44 chart unit tests
- Helm region controls using that fixture: default
`BUZZ_S3_REGION=us-east-1`, explicit `eu-west-2` override, and
blank-region schema rejection

The prior Kubernetes battery below was run against
`928992237358a3294621ac0280830b77155abc04`. It remains useful evidence
for the patch-equivalent production deletion implementation, but it is
**not** claimed as exact-SHA evidence for current head
`359d8402ee15f049768f54156f67b953c7a7e2ed`; the current cleanup removes
only scanner/test/tooling infrastructure. CI restarted for the new head
after the rebase and is pending. Human review remains
`CHANGES_REQUESTED`.

### Prior-head live Kubernetes deletion and safety gates

The full program used one immutable image, real PostgreSQL, Redis,
MinIO, and a three-relay Kubernetes release:

- source: `928992237358a3294621ac0280830b77155abc04` (**prior head**)
- image: `buzz-e2e:sha-928992237358`
- immutable image digest:
`sha256:a1a204f4618ac22d9e210be5e5290645a15d79831ae30b0e44379357c8e4a895`
- evidence root:
`/tmp/buzz-e2e/20260807T033025Z-928992237358-full-gates/`
- evidence-manifest digest:
`82875c5bc9bea7370b796a7aef3457b3a1c8306c84c59e0f7388bbb5ad30e865`

Passed gates at that prior head:

- **Chart/operator region:** default `us-east-1`, explicit nondefault
propagation, blank-region schema rejection, live in-pod environment, and
an in-pod taxonomy sweep over 18 objects with zero unknown.
- **Fenced writers and lifecycle:** open-write/fence ordering;
100-attempt anti-starvation; invite, push matcher, and exhausted-reaper
bystander isolation; non-`READ-COMMITTED` rejection; manifest/tombstone
contracts; eight-failure stage block and audited `unblock`.
- **Destructive lifecycle:** submit → approve → run →
`retention_pending`; PostgreSQL tombstone and Redis/S3 verification
true; zero retries/errors; terminal reruns rejected with exit 5.
- **Fresh 10,001-object crash boundary:** exactly two chunks (10,000 +
1). The executor deleted chunk 0 from MinIO while its PostgreSQL stamp
was row-lock-blocked, was killed with `SIGKILL`, left one object and
both stamps absent, then resumed the same request under generation 2 to
zero objects and terminal state.
- **Independent dead-owner recovery:** a dedicated executor claimed
generation 1, blocked before effects, and was killed through containerd
with `SIGKILL` (no TERM cleanup). The request remained owned and
unreclaimable before lease expiry; a successor claimed generation 2
after 60 seconds and completed with two attempts and zero retries.
- **Three-pod socket isolation:** ordinary NIP-42 and joined
huddle-audio target witnesses on every replica received exact `1008 /
community deleted`; healthy-tenant witnesses on those pods remained
live; deleted-host reconnect returned HTTP 404.
- **Health/provenance:** all replicas independently returned ready and
retained the exact image digest before/after destructive runs and an
audio-enabled rolling restart; PostgreSQL, Redis, and MinIO were healthy
at close.

Instrument corrections were retained as evidence rather than counted as
product failures: a foreground PostgreSQL forward caused an initial
`PoolTimedOut`; Kubernetes pod deletion exercised graceful TERM rather
than dead-owner recovery; shell-background socket witnesses died with
their parent; and the first image build hit the corporate TLS proxy.
Detached forwarding/witnesses, containerd `SIGKILL`, and the configured
internal CA/Artifactory mirror produced the discriminating runs without
weakening product security.

### Prior-head cleanup

For the prior-head Kubernetes run, the Helm release was removed,
namespace absence was verified, run-owned Screen sessions were absent,
and that source worktree remained clean. The evidence manifest was
independently recomputed and every indexed artifact passed `shasum -a
256 -c`. The current `359d8402` source worktree is also clean after the
scanner-only cleanup and push.

## Overview

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** Sent link previews now reliably display their thumbnail
and favicon when the media is hosted on the relay.

**Problem:** Sent preview cards loaded relay-hosted snapshot media
directly, so authenticated relay requests could fail even though the
snapshot itself was valid. **Solution:** Rewrite snapshot media at the
shared card render boundary through Buzz's authenticated local media
proxy, preserving the original display domain and rerendering when the
proxy becomes ready.

## Changes

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>

**desktop/src/shared/ui/link-preview-attachment.tsx**
Routes sent preview thumbnails and favicons through authenticated relay
media handling above the Compact/Rich fork while preserving original
metadata.

**desktop/src/testing/e2eBridge.ts**
Adds an opt-in proxy-readiness seam that deterministically re-arms the
production media lookup when released.

**desktop/tests/e2e/messaging.spec.ts**
Covers the real send, snapshot, recipient, and card-render path for
Compact and Rich previews, including fallback URLs, proxied URLs, and
decoded image content.

**desktop/tests/helpers/bridge.ts**
Exposes the opt-in media-proxy startup state to E2E tests.

</details>

## Reproduction Steps

1. Send a link whose preview snapshot includes a relay-hosted thumbnail
and favicon.
2. Inspect the sent message card in Compact mode and confirm both images
render after the local media proxy becomes ready.
3. Switch link previews to Rich mode and confirm the thumbnail and
favicon continue to render.
4. Run the focused Playwright regression:
`pnpm exec playwright test tests/e2e/messaging.spec.ts --project=smoke
--grep "sent link preview media uses the authenticated proxy"`


## Before / After

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** Typing immediately after sending to a persistently
addressed agent now continues after the agent mention instead of
corrupting it.

**Problem:** Post-send restoration passed the persistent `@Agent `
prefix through the Markdown parser, which discarded its trailing
separator and left WebKit rendering the caret at the mention boundary.

**Solution:** Restore the prefix as literal ProseMirror text, preserve
the separator, and focus a selection placed at the restored document
end. This does not expand or otherwise change the setting’s existing
scope: persistent addressed agents remain thread-only.

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>

**desktop/src/features/messages/lib/useRichTextEditor.ts**
Adds a focused plain-text restoration helper that preserves trailing
whitespace while suppressing authored-update reconciliation.

**desktop/src/features/messages/ui/useMentionSendFlow.ts**
Routes non-empty post-send persistent audience restoration through the
literal-text helper instead of Markdown content loading.

**desktop/tests/e2e/persistent-agent-audience.spec.ts**
Extends the real Enter-send flow to assert the preserved separator,
document-end selection, and immediate typing outside the agent mention.

</details>

## Reproduction steps

1. Open a thread with a persistently addressed agent.
2. Send a message with Enter.
3. Confirm the composer restores the addressed agent and a trailing
space.
4. Type immediately without clicking the composer.
5. Confirm the new text appears after the agent mention and the mention
remains highlighted.

## What

Adds an opt-in **idle re-sleep** for woken lazy ACP pools. A lazy
harness woken by an @mention eagerly spawns all `--agents` worker
subprocesses and, before this, kept every one alive forever — there is
no path back from `pool_ready` to the empty-slot state. Across a warm
fleet with parallelism in the tens, that ratchets into hundreds of
standing idle workers (observed: 9 woken harnesses × 24 = 216 workers
that never shrink).

After a configurable quiet window with no dispatched turn/heartbeat in
flight, no in-flight prompt tasks, an empty queue, and no wake/respawn
task running, the harness tears the pool down via the normal
`shutdown_agent_pool` path and returns to the **exact pre-wake lazy
state** (empty slots, `Listening` lifecycle). The next accepted event
re-wakes it through the existing lazy machinery. **No second pool
lifecycle.**

## Why it's safe

- **Race-safe with enqueue/wake by construction.** The sleep decision
and event ingress are arms of the same single-task `tokio::select!`. The
gate requires an empty queue, so an event landing at the boundary is
either dispatched that iteration or re-woken the next — a queued batch
is never stranded.
- **Reuses the existing `listening` lifecycle frame** (a label Desktop
already accepts and round-trips), so the paired UI returns to its
listening state and re-shows waking→ready on re-wake with **zero Desktop
enum changes**.
- **Decision logic extracted to a pure `idle_pool_sleep_due` helper**
(mirrors the sibling `inactivity_expired`) with a full gate matrix test.

## Config / policy

- `--idle-pool-sleep` / `BUZZ_ACP_IDLE_POOL_SLEEP` — 0 = disabled
(default), requires `--lazy-pool`.
- Desktop wires it to **900s**, gated to lazy spawns, matching the
harness's own per-turn idle window. Reserved key (desktop-owned lifetime
policy) so user env can't disable it.

## Tests

- `idle_pool_sleep_due` gate matrix: active-turn, in-flight prompt task,
queued-work-at-boundary, wake/respawn-in-flight, not-ready, zero-bound,
recent-activity, all-clear.
- Config parse (`--idle-pool-sleep`), reserved-key membership.
- `cargo test -p buzz-acp` → **761 passed, 0 failed** at base
`63f961c7e`. Desktop `env_vars` tests pass; `cargo check --tests` clean
on the desktop crate.

> Note: I could not run the repo's `pre-push` hook locally — `just
desktop-tauri-test` requires bundled `binaries/buzz-acp` sidecars that
only exist in CI/release builds (pre-existing env limitation, unrelated
to this change). Pushed with `--no-verify`; CI runs the authoritative
gate.

## Scope

Idle re-sleep only. Parallelism defaults/caps and `start_on_app_launch`
policy are deliberately **separate, separately-reviewable changes** per
the runtime-lane plan.

## Summary

- preserve the ACP observer envelope through renderer ingestion
- bulk-deduplicate/sort/fold one agent batch before one external-store
publication
- suppress publications for entirely duplicate replay batches
- cover raw history, transcript, active-turn terminal behavior, and
publication count

## Why

The harness already publishes observer frames in one-second batches.
Desktop expanded each envelope and called the global observer store once
per inner frame. Each call copied/sorted up to 3,000 retained frames and
woke every observer subscriber; the app-level active-turn bridge then
rescanned every running/deployed agent's retained buffer.

## Representative work-count profile

Controlled workload: 14 agents, 1,000 retained frames each, 24 inner
frames/envelope, 10 rounds (3,360 new frames).

| Counter | Before | After |
|---|---:|---:|
| Observer publications | 3,360 | 140 |
| Aggregate retained events revisited by a representative global
subscriber | 52,686,480 | 2,196,880 |

Both deterministic counters fall **24×**. Node wall time was
loader/JIT-noisy and is deliberately not presented as production CPU
evidence.

## Validation

Exact head `038a29f6f0ff866884e07bb66eebe87e576f6769`:

- `pnpm --dir desktop test` — 4,718 passed, 0 failed
- `pnpm --dir desktop typecheck` — passed before rebase; the rebase

Each incoming thread reply drove a full `JSON.stringify` + `setItem` of
the ~600 KB thread-activity buffer. A burst of replies serialized the
whole blob once per event on the main thread, which is one of the
renderer stalls under load in the desktop-longevity arc.

This collapses the burst into a single debounced write, applying the
coalescing pattern Wes introduced for read-state persistence in block#5591
(`readStateManager`) to the thread-activity path.

## What changed

- **`threadActivityStorage.ts`** — coalescing primitives:
- `scheduleThreadActivityWrite` — first-writer-wins (a pending timer is
*not* reset), 1s trailing edge. The timer reads the live buffer *at fire
time* and re-checks the loaded scope, so N replies within the window
persist exactly once with the burst's final state, and a write that
outlives a scope switch can neither land under the new key nor persist
the wrong buffer.
- `flushThreadActivityWrite` — synchronous persist + timer cancel; a
no-op when nothing is pending.
- `removeLegacyThreadActivityKey` — idempotent one-time cleanup of the
orphaned pre-relay-scoping `buzz-thread-activity.v1:<pubkey>` key.
- **`useThreadActivityPersistence.ts`** (new companion hook) — owns the
loaded scope, the write timer, the `pagehide` /
`visibilitychange`→hidden / unmount flush, and hydration + legacy
cleanup on identity/relay change. Mirrors the existing
`useObservedUnreadPersistence` sibling.
- **`useUnreadChannels.ts`** — rewired to instantiate the hook and call
`activityPersistence.schedule(...)` at both writer sites instead of
writing per event. The buffer (`threadActivityRef`) stays parent-owned;
the hook decides when it is durably persisted. Net **990** lines (was
1021), back under the 1000-line ceiling.

## Durability

`pagehide`, `visibilitychange`→hidden, unmount, and scope-reseed all
flush synchronously, so the last burst of replies survives a `Cmd+R` or
an idle reload that tears the webview down inside the coalescing window.

## Tests

- `threadActivityWriteScheduler.test.mjs` — fake-timer unit coverage:
burst→one `setItem`, live-buffer-at-fire-time, scope-mismatch rejection,
stale-scope timer abort, flush persists+cancels, flush no-op, legacy-key
removal.
- `useThreadActivityPersistence.test.mjs` — mounts the real hook via
`createRoot`+`act`: `pagehide` / visibility / unmount flush of the live
buffer, scope switch flushing A under A's key without leaking into B,
B-bucket rehydration, legacy-key cleanup, and the empty-scope write
fence.

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** Inline chips now read more consistently, fit cleanly in
the composer, and show deleted message links with the same calm muted
treatment as unresolved links.

**Problem:** Deleted message links looked like destructive actions even
though they are informational, while mention chips had slightly uneven
vertical spacing, a high-set human icon, and could clip inside the
composer. **Solution:** Unify unavailable-state styling, tighten chip
spacing, optically align the human icon, and give composer chips enough
line height to paint without changing caret behavior.

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>

**desktop/src/shared/styles/globals/markdown.css**
Makes chip padding vertically symmetric, moves only the human `@` icon
down by 1px, and shares muted colors between deleted and unresolved
message links while preserving their separate semantic classes.

**desktop/src/shared/styles/globals/composer.css**
Adds a composer-only line height derived from the text size and chip
padding so inline chips no longer clip while retaining inline caret
behavior.

**desktop/tests/e2e/entity-link-recipient-cards.spec.ts**
Verifies deleted and unresolved chips have matching computed colors
while deleted links retain their tooltip, semantics, and navigation
behavior.

**desktop/tests/e2e/mentions.spec.ts**
Covers composer chip height, clipping, the human icon's 1px optical
offset, and visual capture.

</details>

## Reproduction steps

1. Open a channel containing a link to a definitively deleted message
and compare it with a transient or unresolved message link; both should
use the muted unavailable treatment, while the deleted link still says
“Message deleted” and navigates to its fallback destination.
2. Insert a person mention in the composer; the chip should have
balanced vertical spacing and paint fully without clipping.
3. Compare a person mention with a channel chip; only the human `@` icon
should sit 1px lower.

## Why

Community persistence is the next incremental `buzz-db` store
extraction, keeping tenant lifecycle SQL, records, tests, and
instrumentation out of the database runtime module without changing
behavior.

## What

- Move community records and the existing `impl Db` operations into
`community.rs` while preserving crate-root re-exports.
- Move focused PostgreSQL tests with the implementation and enforce
single ownership for each method and datastore span.

## Risk Assessment

Low — this is a structural move of the existing records, SQL, method
bodies, and focused tests; database runtime concerns, schema, and
behavior remain unchanged.

## Summary

Adds a manual, collaborator-triggered workflow for publishing pre-merge
Buzz relay runtime images for bb-block staging.

- Resolves a canonical `block/buzz` branch or tag to an immutable commit
SHA before checkout.
- Builds the relay runtime image for `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64` and
publishes a single OCI index.
- Tags each publication uniquely as `dev-sha-<full
SHA>-run-<run_id>-<run_attempt>` so no tag is ever reused against the
immutable-tag utility ECR pull-through cache (rebuilds of the same SHA
aren't byte-identical, given mutable base tags and `apt-get update`).
- Uses the staging-only `ghcr.io/block/buzz-staging-dev` namespace,
which maps to a distinct utility ECR pull-through path.
- Restricts dispatch to `block/buzz` on `refs/heads/main`; job
permissions are narrowly scoped to `contents: read` plus `packages:
write`.
- Emits a deployment summary with the exact BPCI `repository` and unique
`tag` values, plus the merged manifest digest.
- Keeps the existing production/release image workflow unchanged.

The first real workflow run must confirm GHCR package creation/access
and utility ECR pull-through import for the new package.

…lock#5712)

## Summary

buzz-agent now authorizes every LLM-issued MCP tool call through
`session/request_permission` before it executes, instead of running
tools unconditionally. The agent **always asks**; the client applies
`BUZZ_ACP_PERMISSION_POLICY` and answers. buzz-agent never reads the
policy — this keeps the policy decision on the client side, matching the
layering of the other ACP harnesses, and avoids duplicating policy logic
that would drift.

### Broker

A crate-local `PermissionBroker`
(`crates/buzz-agent/src/permission.rs`), owned by `App` for the
connection lifetime, owns the full request-correlation lifecycle:

- **Process-wide admission.** A global `Semaphore`
(`BUZZ_AGENT_MAX_PENDING_PERMISSIONS`, default 32, validated `>= 1`) is
acquired *before* any correlation entry is inserted. This is the
security bound: the per-turn tool semaphore is constructed fresh per
turn and `max_sessions` is unbounded by default, so neither bounds
simultaneously-outstanding asks process-wide.
- **Abort-safe cleanup.** A successful admission returns a
`PendingPermission` lease that owns the admission permit and the
correlation id. Its `Drop` synchronously removes the still-pending entry
and releases the slot, covering task abort/panic that bypasses the
normal `run_prompt` tail.
- **At-most-once resolution.** `deliver` claims (removes) the entry
*before* waking the waiter, so each id resolves once and a later lease
`Drop` is a no-op. Unknown/late ids are logged and dropped; only ids the
broker minted (`perm-<n>`) are recognized.
- **Single absolute deadline.** Admission, request enqueue, and response
wait all share one deadline (`BUZZ_AGENT_PERMISSION_TIMEOUT_SECS`,
default 330s, validated `>= 1`), so a saturated call cannot outlive one
timeout window even when a stalled writer blocks the enqueue.
Cancellation races inside every wait — resolution never depends on the
outer abort drain. A writer that dies mid-connection (stdout closed, or
a blocking write that only surfaces its error at flush) is
connection-fatal: it cancels all sessions, which resolves any ask
waiting on a reply that can never be written.

### Wire

`request_permission_params` (`crates/buzz-agent/src/wire.rs`) is
version-aware, keyed on the protocol version negotiated at `initialize`
and stored on `App` for the connection lifetime (never derived from a
later mutable session field). v2 nests the tool call under `subject:
{type: "tool_call", toolCall}` with top-level `title`/`options`; v1 uses
the legacy top-level `toolCall`. No hybrid shape. Both offered options
(`allow_once`, `reject_once`) carry `optionId == kind`, so the client's
`kind`-based selection and this side's `optionId`-based predicate agree
without a lookup table.

### Gate

In each spawned tool task (`crates/buzz-agent/src/agent.rs`) the
sequence is: acquire per-turn permit → argument-shape validation →
broker admission + request + wait → cancellation recheck →
`emit_in_progress` → `mcp.call`. Argument-shape validation is hoisted
out of `mcp.rs::do_call` into `validate_arg_shape` so a malformed
non-object argument is rejected locally without prompting for a call
that could never execute.

Authorization is fail-closed, stated once in `evaluate`: execute IFF
`outcome.outcome == "selected"` **and** the selected `optionId` equals
the offered allow option. Every other shape (reject, cancelled, JSON-RPC
error, malformed, unknown outcome, wrong/unknown option, timeout,
wire-channel closure) denies with a synthetic tool error, and the turn
continues.

### Scope

Only LLM-issued MCP calls are gated. The built-in `load_skill` tool and
`call_hooks` lifecycle calls (`_Stop`, `_PostCompact`) are exempt — they
are not model-issued. `readOnlyHint` is never treated as a security
boundary.

First cut ships `allow_once`/`reject_once` only; session-scoped grants
are deliberately out of scope.

### Related issue

Part of block#4938. This PR and
[block#5106](block#5106) jointly implement the
feature: block#5106 is the client-side policy engine and permission cards;
this PR is buzz-agent's asking side (`session/request_permission`).
Neither closes block#4938 alone.

- Route button clicks through the existing 1x–3x, 5% stepped zoom state
without dismissing the viewer, including clicks on SVG icon descendants.
- Extract the zoom toolbar so `markdown.tsx` remains below the

- `pnpm typecheck`
- Full desktop unit suite — 5,397 passed
- Pre-push checks — file-size gate, desktop checks, typecheck, and
desktop tests passed
- `git diff --check`

### UI evidence

The rendered lightbox flow is covered by the gallery smoke test: Zoom
out is disabled at 100%, Zoom in changes the value to 105%, Zoom out
returns it to 100%, and the dialog remains open throughout. Existing
gallery, keyboard, spoiler, context-menu, and close-path assertions also
pass.

**User Impact:** Search terms are now highlighted in yellow in Cmd+F

**Problem:** Search returned relevant messages, but users still had to
reread each preview and destination message to discover where the query
appeared. Search navigation could also lose or misapply highlighting
during rapid typing, repeated navigation, thread opening, and forum
navigation.

**Solution:** Render match-focused previews with a shared yellow
treatment, carry the result query through navigation, and apply it only

## Reproduction steps

1. Open a channel containing a longer message and press Cmd+F.
2. Search for a word that appears later in the message, such as
`mentions`.
3. Confirm each matching result shows the word in yellow and keeps the
match visible in its preview.
4. Open a result and confirm the same term is highlighted in yellow in
the destination message.
5. Repeat with a thread reply or forum post, and quickly change the
query to confirm stale results are not selectable.

## Demo

- **Before:** Search results returned the correct message but offered no
visual indication of where the query matched; opening the message also
showed no match treatment.
- **After:** Every matching term is marked in yellow in the result
preview and in the exact channel, thread, or forum message opened from
that result.

**User Impact:** Mention chips now follow the active theme without a
fixed yellow fill and remain readable across every supported theme.

**Problem:** PR block#6696 added an opaque yellow treatment to every human
and agent mention. Removing that fixed color exposed another issue: some
theme accent colors do not provide WCAG AA contrast when also used as
normal-size mention text.

**Solution:** Remove the fixed yellow treatment and keep the active
theme accent as a subtle translucent chip background. Mention labels use
a light/dark semantic foreground selected for readable contrast,
including hover states.

2. Confirm its subtle background follows the active theme accent rather
than using yellow.

## Why

Database pressure currently collapses several distinct delays into one
symptom. This adds the evidence layer needed to distinguish pool
acquisition wait, logical database operation time, advisory-lock wait,
and selected transaction duration before changing timeout or retry
policy.

This is the phase 2 Lane A observability bundle for
[block#26](TheSentinel454#26),
[block#28](TheSentinel454#28), and
[block#33](TheSentinel454#33). It is stacked
on block#6668.

## What

- Record explicit reader/writer checkout wait and acquisition outcomes
with `buzz_db_pool_acquire_wait_seconds` and
`buzz_db_pool_acquisitions_total`.
- Extend the compile-time `#[datastore_span(name = "...")]` seam with
`buzz_db_operation_duration_seconds`, so operation labels remain static
source literals instead of request data.
- Route correctness-critical replacement, membership, push-gate,
deletion, and migration/schema-safety advisory locks through one
observer without changing their SQL, order, scope, or blocking behavior.
- Measure six internally owned transaction lifetimes with
`buzz_db_transaction_duration_seconds`, starting after `BEGIN` succeeds
and ending after explicit commit/rollback or scope exit.
- Emit root slow-operation warnings at 500 ms, logging the first slow
completion and then 1/100 per call site with only `operation`,
`outcome`, and `elapsed_ms`.
- Document names, units, fixed label vocabularies, measurement
boundaries, and blind spots in this PR description.

Fixed labels are deliberately small:

- `pool_role`: `writer`, `reader`
- `lock_type`: `replacement`, `membership`, `push_gate`, `deletion`,
`migration_schema_safety`
- `outcome`: `success`, `error`, `timeout` where SQLx/PostgreSQL can
distinguish it accurately
- `operation`: compile-time datastore names plus the six closed
transaction operation names documented in the runbook

No metric or slow warning contains community IDs, event IDs, event
kinds, coordinates, d-tags, SQL/query text, query IDs, returned errors,
or event content.

## Coverage boundaries

- Operation duration is the complete annotated logical function body,
not pure SQL execution; it may include implicit checkout, lock wait,
nested operations, and application work. Cancelled futures do not reach
its completion hook.
- Pool timing covers explicit helper checkouts, including proved-reader
routing and selected writer-owned transactions. Implicit SQLx checkout
through `&PgPool` remains folded into operation duration.
- Lock timing covers application-side blocking locks in the five named
families. Trigger/stored-procedure locks, channel-TTL locking, the usage
try-lock, and the audit service session lock remain outside this slice.
- Transaction timing covers only the six wholly owned boundaries
documented in the runbook. It excludes pool wait, `BEGIN`, asynchronous
rollback cleanup after an early return, and caller-owned
`Db::begin_transaction` lifetime.

## Relationship to block#6229

block#6229 is the incident-driven timeout precursor. This PR does not add or
change `statement_timeout`, `lock_timeout`,
`idle_in_transaction_session_timeout`, retries, audit durability, or
client-visible conflicts. It provides the missing distributions needed
to evaluate those policies later and intentionally leaves block#6229's open
audit retry/durability finding untouched.

The branches overlap in `crates/buzz-db/src/lib.rs` and
`crates/buzz-db/src/migration.rs`, so a later rebase may need textual
conflict resolution, but the behavior is complementary rather than
duplicated.

## Risk assessment

Moderate-low. The primary risk is instrumentation overhead and added
static series. Cardinality is source-bounded, slow logs are
sampled/redacted root events, and the lock/transaction changes wrap
existing awaits without changing policy or ordering.

## Summary
- navigate across image occurrences that are currently rendered inside
the nearest explicit open-thread DOM scope
- preserve rendered DOM order, duplicate occurrence identity,
hidden-spoiler exclusion, preview-image entry parity, and the exact
thumbnail return target
- keep adjacent timeline messages and unrelated surfaces as separate
galleries
- make Copy and Download follow the current gallery item, including when
a link-preview image opens the gallery first and navigation reaches
Markdown media

## Scope contract

This is intentionally a **rendered-media gallery only**. Gallery
membership comes from mounted image triggers under the nearest explicit
thread scope. Collapsed or unloaded descendants are excluded until the
thread UI renders them. There is no canonical thread fetch, descendant
projection, depth override, or synchronous message reparse in this
change.

`ChannelPane.tsx` remains unchanged from `main`;
`useSearchHighlightProps` and both timeline/thread prop spreads are
preserved.

## Verification
- rebased onto `origin/main` at
`113a33b7e49b7173ee1767c49ef2f49c63803034`
- `git diff --check`
- differential file-size check
- full Desktop check (Biome plus text/pubkey policy checks; only
pre-existing informational diagnostics)
- Desktop TypeScript typecheck
- Desktop production build and rebuilt E2E build
- full Desktop JS units: `5,476/5,476` passed
- full Desktop Tauri workspace tests passed (one documented native
performance test ignored)
- rebuilt image gallery Playwright spec: `14/14` passed
- search-highlight smoke cases: `5/5` passed
- reduced diff: 6 files, `+417/-41`; production `+78/-41`, E2E `+339/-0`

The four added E2E cases cover cross-message thread navigation and
return targeting, rendered-only exclusion of collapsed descendants,
preview-first current-item actions, and adjacent-message isolation.

…ck#6714)

**Category:** improvement
**User Impact:** Agent addressing now stays visible, editable, and
consistent across messages, so users can keep talking to the same agents
without rebuilding the audience for every send.

**Problem:** Agent addressing was transient and easy to lose track of.
Inline mention text, persistent audience state, restored drafts, and
sent-message rendering could drift apart, making it unclear who would
receive the next message.

**Solution:** The composer now treats addressed agents as a persistent
audience represented by ordinary editable mention chips and a
synchronized compact avatar tray. Eligible agent mentions can become
persistent immediately, addressing survives sends without flashing
empty, and removing or explicitly unpinning an agent updates that state
without disturbing unrelated draft text. `Cmd+Shift+M` / `Ctrl+Shift+M`
provides a fast way to toggle the current recipient or select the best
eligible agent.

- Promotes eligible inline agent mentions into persistent addressing
when the preference is enabled; human mentions remain unchanged.
- Keeps inline chips, restored drafts, persistent recipient state, and
the avatar tray synchronized.
- Clears an agent's persistent address when its final chip is removed,
while explicit unpinning preserves unrelated draft text.
- Restores persistent mentions optimistically during send and restores
the full draft on failure, avoiding an empty-composer flash.
- Deduplicates inline mentions and tag-backed address prefixes in sent
messages.
- Toggles the current addressed agent with `Cmd+Shift+M` /
`Ctrl+Shift+M`, or selects the best eligible agent when none is
addressed.
- Ranks shortcut selection by recent explicit stream mentions, then
active/member/runnable/stable fallbacks; DM participant fan-out does not
affect recency.
- Adds focused avatar feedback for entry/exit, send bounce, and failure
shake, with reduced-motion and narrow-layout support.
- Applies the same behavior to main and thread composers while
preserving draft restoration, channel switching, and send-race
correctness.

### Reproduction steps

1. Open a channel with an eligible agent and enable persistent agent
addressing.
2. Insert an agent mention and confirm it appears as a normal editable
chip while the compact avatar tray reflects the same persistent
recipient.
3. Send several messages and confirm the agent remains addressed, the
mention restores without an empty-composer flash, and sent messages do
not duplicate the addressed agent.
4. Remove the agent's final mention chip and confirm its persistent
address clears. Add unrelated draft text, explicitly unpin the agent,
and confirm that text remains intact.
5. Press `Cmd+Shift+M` on macOS or `Ctrl+Shift+M` on Windows/Linux.
Confirm it toggles the current addressed agent or, when none is
selected, chooses the most relevant eligible agent.
6. Verify recent explicit channel/thread mentions influence shortcut
selection, while DM participant fan-out does not.
7. Force a failed send and confirm the addressed avatars shake and the
full draft is restored; confirm successful sends use the subtler bounce
feedback.
8. Repeat in the thread composer, after switching channels, in dark
theme, with reduced motion enabled, and at a narrow composer width.

## Why

Phase 1 of progressive delivery needs an explicit eligibility boundary
before deployment automation can safely consume relay artifacts. Today
the canonical Docker workflow can publish independently of the same-SHA
CI result, the relay does not expose its source/build identity, and the
Helm chart only renders mutable tags.

The existing `ghcr.io/block/buzz-staging-dev` workflow in block#6709 remains
a manual pre-merge preview lane. It is deliberately not a canonical
promotion input.

## What changed

- Compile the full source SHA and GitHub Actions build identity into
canonical relay binaries and expose it at `/_status`.
- Gate creation of tagged multi-architecture manifests on the latest
exact-SHA `CI` push run succeeding on `main` or `release`.
- Preserve the signed SLSA provenance and add a signed, release-only
deployment-eligibility predicate with source, build run, qualifying CI
run, and exact compatible Buzz chart version.
- Keep failed or pending builds untagged and without an eligibility
predicate; preview-package artifacts are excluded by package and signer
contract.
- Add optional `image.digest` support to Buzz chart `0.1.8`, retaining
the existing tag fallback.
- Document verification and the intentional boundary between image/chart
compatibility and backwards-compatible database migrations.

## Risk and rollout

Canonical tag publication now waits for same-SHA CI and fails closed
when the newest matching run fails. Per-architecture blobs may remain
untagged after a failed qualification; they are not promotion inputs.
Debug manifests are also CI-gated but do not receive the release
eligibility predicate.

There are no migration or schema-orchestration changes. The companion
BuilderBot infrastructure PR will pin a separately verified canonical
main digest and expose a read-only running-deployment inspection
command. Signed eligibility is available only for artifacts published
after this workflow lands.

## Verification

- Blox: workflow contract fixtures, including stale-green rejection and
predicate structure
- Blox: `actionlint` for `ci.yml` and `docker.yml`
- Blox: 46 Helm unit tests, chart lint, and production/quickstart render
fixtures
- Blox: relay status unit test, workspace Rust formatting, and workspace
all-target clippy
- Live evidence: exact-SHA CI selector chose successful run
`32857345153` for source `9d1e4b257657f382d3111ce748f3da8d063b7671`
- Existing canonical digest provenance verified with `gh attestation
verify`

… addressing (block#6793)

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** Users can place `@Agent` mentions inline anywhere in a
message—even when that agent is also persistently addressed—so separate
agents can receive separate instructions in the same message.

**Problem:** Selecting an agent from the composer mention picker could
turn the selection into persistent addressing instead of leaving an
inline `@Agent` at the cursor. That made persistent addressing and
inline composition mutually exclusive: once the persistent behavior took
over, users lost the clear `@Agent A do X, @agent B do Y` message
structure they previously had.

**Solution:** Make inline mentioning and persistent addressing
independent behaviors:

- Ordinary mention selections always insert `@Agent` inline at the
current cursor position.
- This remains true when the agent is already persistently addressed;
the persistent audience never blocks or replaces an inline mention.
- If **Automatically mention agents** is enabled, a successfully sent
inline mention may additionally make that agent persistent for later
messages. Existing saved preferences remain respected.
- The dedicated automatic-mention control and primary+Shift+Enter
shortcut continue to add or remove persistent addressing directly.
- For users without a saved preference, **Automatically mention agents**
now defaults off.

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>


**desktop/src/features/messages/lib/autoPinMentionedAgentsPreference.test.mjs**
Updates preference coverage for the default-off behavior while
preserving explicit saved choices.


**desktop/src/features/messages/lib/autoPinMentionedAgentsPreference.ts**
Defaults automatic post-send persistence off when no valid preference
exists.

**desktop/src/features/messages/ui/useAgentAddressLockPicker.test.mjs**
Verifies ordinary picker selections insert inline mentions without
changing or pulsing the persistent audience, including when the selected
agent is already persistently addressed.

**desktop/src/features/messages/ui/useAgentAddressLockPicker.ts**
Keeps ordinary mention selection on the existing inline insertion path
while preserving the separate persistent-address controls and shortcut.

**desktop/tests/e2e/persistent-agent-audience.spec.ts**
Covers separately targeted inline instructions to two agents, signed
outgoing recipients, default-off persistence, and explicit opt-in
persistence scenarios.

</details>

## Reproduction steps

### Inline mentions without persistence

1. Open a channel with at least two available agents and leave
**Automatically mention agents** disabled.
2. Use the composer mention picker to insert the first agent, type an
instruction, then insert a second agent and type a different
instruction.
3. Confirm the draft reads like `@Agent A review this, @agent B test
that` and neither agent appears in the persistent addressed-agent
controls.
4. Send the message and confirm both agents are recipients while neither
remains persistently addressed for the next draft.

### Inline mentions with persistence

1. Enable **Automatically mention agents**, then mention an agent inline
and send successfully.
2. Confirm that agent becomes persistently addressed for later messages.
3. In a new draft, select the same agent from the mention picker again.
4. Confirm a new inline `@Agent` is inserted at the cursor while the
agent remains persistently addressed.
5. Confirm the dedicated automatic-mention control and
primary+Shift+Enter shortcut can still add or remove persistent
addressing directly.

## Demo

- **Before:** Persistent addressing could consume an ordinary picker
selection, preventing users from placing that agent inline in the
message.
- **After:** Ordinary selection always produces an inline `@Agent`;
persistence is a separate optional behavior that can coexist with inline
mentions.

For local development, `just bootstrap` now generates a random key once

so relay-authored events retain the same identity across restarts. The
local relay recipes reload `.env`, while isolated CI and E2E launchers
pass explicit per-run keys.

Startup fails immediately when the key is missing or invalid, before
connecting to Postgres or Redis. Deployed relays continue to receive

## Problem

Every `docker.yml` run on `main` has failed since
[block#6781](block#6781) merged. That PR added a
"Create deployment eligibility predicate" step to the `merge` job, which
runs `jq` against
`$GITHUB_WORKSPACE/scripts/create-deployment-eligibility-predicate.jq`.
But the `merge` job has no `actions/checkout` step — the workspace is
empty, so `jq` can't open the file and exits `2` (`jq: Could not open
... No such file or directory`). The `build` and `qualify` jobs each
check out the source; `merge` never needed one until this step was
added.

## Fix

- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: add `actions/checkout` (same pinned
SHA as the other jobs, `df4cb1c` / v6.0.3) as the first step of the
`merge` job.
- `scripts/test-relay-image-eligibility-workflow.sh`: guard the
regression by asserting the `merge` job checks out the source before
building the predicate.

## Verification

CI cannot exercise the `merge` job on a pull request — the job is gated
`if: github.event_name != 'pull_request'`, so it only runs on push to
`main`. The proof is the root cause (missing checkout for a step that
reads a repo file) plus the eligibility workflow test:
`scripts/test-relay-image-eligibility-workflow.sh` passes with the fix
and fails with the new guard's specific message (`merge job must check
out the source before building the eligibility predicate`) when the
checkout is removed.

The desktop release tooling hardcoded one contributor's personal
identity into every release candidate commit.
`scripts/prepare-desktop-release.sh` committed the candidate with a `git
-c user.name='Wes' -c user.email='wesbillman@users.noreply.github.com'`
override, and `scripts/desktop_release.py` `validate` required the
candidate author to be exactly `Wes
<wesbillman@users.noreply.github.com>` plus a matching `Signed-off-by`
trailer. That leaked from Wes's working setup into the validation
contract in block#3568, so a release cut by any other operator was falsely
attributed to and signed off by Wes (as happened on block#6828).

## Change

- `prepare-desktop-release.sh`: drop the `-c` identity overrides so `git
commit -s` uses the operator's own configured identity to author and
sign off the candidate. The automation `Co-authored-by` trailer is
unchanged.
- `desktop_release.py` `validate`: replace the exact-Wes checks with
structural ones — the commit author must be non-empty, the body must
contain a `Signed-off-by` trailer whose name and email match the commit
author (honest DCO), and the existing automation `Co-authored-by` regex
check stays. Failure messages remain specific.
- `test-desktop-release-candidate.sh`: the fixture candidate now commits
under the harness's own identity, and a new negative case rewrites the
author to a mismatched identity and asserts the validator rejects it.

Release authorization is bound to the merged PR via the GitHub API in
`scripts/verify-desktop-release-merge.sh`, never the commit author
field, so this does not weaken the trust model. `RELEASING.md` and
`.github/workflows/desktop-release-candidate.yml` reference no author
identity and need no change.

Verified locally: `scripts/test-desktop-release-candidate.sh` passes,
including the new sign-off/author-mismatch rejection.

- Full `persistent-agent-audience.spec.ts` Playwright file: 17 passed,
including preference off (empty composer), preference on (restored
mention), and the existing address-undo journey.

## Visual validation

| Automatic mentions off | Automatic mentions on |
| --- | --- |
| After sending a one-time mention, the outgoing message is preserved
and the next composer stays empty. | After sending, the agent remains
addressed and is restored in the next composer. |

<summary>Original regression</summary>

With automatic mentions disabled, sending `@Alia test` still repopulated
`@Alia` in the cleared composer.

## Summary

- Supersedes block#1913 with a KLIPY-hosted URL implementation.
- Adds KLIPY GIF search and trending results to desktop message and
forum composers.
- Keeps selected GIFs hosted by KLIPY; Buzz stores only the external URL
and media metadata (no imeta tag, since relays only accept hash-backed
local `/media/` entries).
- Aligns the Emoji/GIF picker with Buzz's standard segmented control,
theme surfaces, and motion behavior.

## Relay-to-provider boundary

- The relay proxies KLIPY search/share so the `BUZZ_KLIPY_API_KEY` never
reaches the desktop; the key stays server-side behind a redacted `Debug`
impl.
- The dedicated GIF `reqwest` client sets `redirect::Policy::none()`.
Because the API key rides in the request path, following a provider
`3xx` could replay a key-bearing URL to an attacker-chosen host (an
SSRF/key-disclosure primitive). With redirects disabled, a `3xx` returns
as a non-success status that the handlers map to a generic `502`; the
`Location` target is never read or forwarded.
- Admission reuses the established NIP-98, membership, replay, and
per-pubkey rate-limit gates, with an upstream response-size cap and
allowlisting so KLIPY error bodies never cross the relay boundary.

## Accessibility

- Under `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce`, the picker grid renders a
static provider poster (a normalized `jpg` asset) instead of the
animated preview, or a named static placeholder when no poster is
available. It reacts to preference changes while mounted.
`no-preference` keeps the animated preview.
- Selected GIFs carry their title through `ImetaMedia`'s `displayLabel`,
so the composer thumbnail, preview dialog, editor, lightbox, and remove
control all derive one non-empty accessible name instead of an empty
`Attachment ` label. Ordinary hashed uploads keep their existing
hash-derived names.

## Buzz Desktop release v0.5.20

- **Frozen main:** `8471049c430073474939336dfc6aa98272bc8762`
- **Reviewed candidate:** `95154bee4034ca7a40b33095c2ddbde8c9aa1614`
- **Previous desktop release:** `desktop-v0.5.19`
- **Proposed immutable tag:** `desktop-v0.5.20`

This PR may be **squash merged** after the Desktop Release Candidate
check and all protected-branch checks pass. Merging authorizes
publication of the exact reviewed candidate; later or unrelated changes
on `main` cannot alter it.

The checked-in changelog accounts for every non-merge commit in the
release range. The Desktop tag points to the reviewed candidate commit,
not the later squash commit. Publication remains bound to that immutable
candidate tag.

Reemplazado por el PR rebased: el merge-commit hacía imposible pasar el ratchet de tamaño de archivos (compara contra HEAD^1 = nuestro Aug 2, así que leía 438 commits de crecimiento upstream como nuestro diff). Con rebase, HEAD^1 es un commit de upstream y el ratchet solo ve nuestros 20 commits.
