+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+The long form, with what was wrong before and how it was found, is in
+[docs/history.md](docs/history.md).
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.5.0] - 2026-09-12
+
+### Added
+
+- A Patreon token pasted into Add feed, or a creator's RSS link without `&show=`, becomes a folder
+  of that creator's shows, kept in step on every scan like a subscribed OPML. A creator with only
+  one show stays a plain feed. One already added as a single long feed is split into its shows on
+  its next scan, keeping its files and what you had read.
+- Add feed has an "Allow items marked explicit" box, so a new feed's first scan no longer skips
+  every explicit item.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Unread counts, unread dots and download progress are amber, the colour of the icon's EQ bars.
+  Blue is kept for the primary action and links, so a count no longer looks like a button.
+- What is playing is marked by small EQ bars, in its row and in the player. They move only while it
+  plays.
+- A folder in the sidebar shows its first four shows' art as a mosaic, and its shows sit under its
+  title. Only folders have a triangle, so every feed lines up with Directory and Popular above.
+- Feeds without art get initials in a colour of their own, instead of all the same grey.
+- The Flagged tab is called Kept, as the Keep button and Settings already said.
+- A feed's header is one short line; when it checks next is in its tooltip.
+- The item list takes more of the window, and the Files pane shows only when the item has files.
+- Column headings and tags are in sentence case, and fewer things are bold.
+- Unsubscribe is a round button beside the feed's other actions.
+- Export and Import in Settings say what they do.
+- The sign-in page shows the original icon large.
+- Nothing animates when your system asks for reduced motion.
+- The pages are about 90 KB smaller: the icon is served once instead of written into each.
+- A web token generated for a new install is 64 characters instead of 32.
+- The README is a short overview of what ipx does and how to run it, and points into `docs/` for
+  the rest. It still described the layout from before 0.4.0.
+
+### Removed
+
+- The systemd units in `contrib/`. Run ipx with Docker, or point a unit of your own at
+  `ipx daemon`.
+- Upgrading from before 0.3.0 directly: what was read, kept or part-played before accounts is no
+  longer carried over to the admin, and OPML feeds that old versions wrote into `config.toml` are
+  no longer moved out of it. Upgrade through 0.4.0 first.
+- `interval_mins` in `config.toml` is ignored; use `schedule`.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The feed list works from the keyboard: Tab reaches every feed, Enter opens it, and Right and Left
+  open and close a folder. Every button shows where the focus is, including in the toolbar, which
+  used to clip the ring.
+- "1 items" reads "1 item".
+- A selected feed without art no longer loses its initials tile in Dark and Light.
+- The player shows the feed's initials when there is no art, not the episode's.
+- Turning on Allow explicit, or changing keywords or auto-download, brings back what those settings
+  had skipped on the feed's next scan. Before, an item was judged once, when first seen, and a
+  skipped one stayed skipped whatever you changed.
+- Feeds inside an OPML or a Patreon creator follow your settings on the folder unless you set their
+  own, as the folder's settings dialog said they did. Before, the folder's settings reached nothing
+  inside it.
+- A new feed no longer takes the name of one you removed earlier and shows that feed's old items.
+  Re-adding the same feed still gets its old name, and its history, back.
+
+## [0.4.0] - 2026-09-11
+
+### Added
+
+- A Classic theme after the 2004 Mac app, beside Dark and Light: brushed-metal toolbar, Aqua
+  blue selection, red unread badges, a striped table and Lucida Grande. The theme button steps
+  through all three and remembers the choice.
+- A toolbar across the top, after the original iPodderX: add and unsubscribe, play, mark read
+  and keep for the selected item, scan, a search box for what is showing, and Settings and Log.
+- Directory, Popular and All Subscriptions at the top of the feed list, opening in the main pane.
+  Directory lists every feed anyone here subscribes to, A to Z (`GET /api/directory`). All
+  Subscriptions lists every item from every feed you subscribe to (`GET /api/entries`).
+- Items show as a table (unread, kept, title, feed, file, size, published) with a Files pane beside
+  it, and a status bar with the totals.
+- Mark everything read from All Subscriptions, across every feed you subscribe to
+  (`POST /api/read-all`). It asks first. All Subscriptions can also check every feed from its header.
+- Click a column heading in the item table to sort by it (kept, title, feed, file type, size,
+  published); click again to reverse. The server sorts, so it covers the whole list, not just the
+  fifty shown, and the choice is remembered.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Popular shows the top 10, not 20, and counts everyone, you included. Your own feeds stay on it,
+  marked Subscribed, and clicking one opens it.
+- Adding a feed scans it straight away, and an OPML import that added feeds scans them, so their
+  items show without pressing Scan.
+- A file deleted to save space, or by hand, looks as if it was never downloaded: no "reaped"
+  label, just the Download button. The retention summary says "deleted", not "reaped".
+- Buttons are icons, with the words in their tooltips: the Files pane (save, delete, view,
+  download), an item's own buttons (mark read, keep, open the original), the feed header (scan,
+  download latest, mark all read, settings, unsubscribe), and the Settings, feed settings and
+  Download latest dialogs (save, download, cancel). The icons are Font Awesome Free, embedded as
+  SVG: only the ones used, no font to download, and nothing fetched from anyone else. They
+  replace font characters such as ⟳ ⤓ ↗, which came out thin and tiny and differed from font to
+  font. Keep is a flag everywhere, as it was in the original, and mark unread is an envelope.
+- One meaning per icon. Minus unsubscribes, x closes or cancels, plus adds or subscribes, and a
+  dialog's confirm button carries the icon of what it does. The feed header's unsubscribe was an x
+  and read as closing the page. The remaining word buttons are icons too:
+  - Log, Add feed, Users, Unsubscribe and OPML.
+  - Popular's Subscribe, Copy and Sign out.
+  - The Subscribed label in Popular, the Directory and Add feed, which is now a green check.
+  - The player's back, play, forward and close, which were font characters, and the folder arrow.
+- The toolbar's read and keep buttons show the selected item's state, with the same icons as the
+  item's own buttons. Play, read and keep sit together, and Scan sits with add and unsubscribe.
+- An OPML subscription's page has the same header as a feed's, with its buttons in the same places.
+- The item table's size has its own column, apart from the file's type, and shows KB for small
+  files instead of "0 MB". The Item heading is now Title.
+- A file's type is an icon (audio, video, image, PDF, torrent, other), green once it is
+  downloaded and red when the download failed, with the details in its tooltip. One icon per
+  row keeps the column lined up. The DOWNLOADED and PENDING labels are gone.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Playing a file from the Files pane played it twice at once, in the pane and in the player bar.
+  The pane has a play button now, and the player bar is the only player.
+- The password box in Manage users was white in the dark theme.
+- An item with no date showed a stray dot in its details.
+- Escape did not close a dialog while the cursor was in one of its boxes, so Add feed, which opens
+  in its URL box, could not be closed with Escape.
+
+### Security
+
+- Feeds from paid-feed services (Patreon, Supercast, Supporting Cast, Glow, Memberful) are never
+  listed in Popular or the Directory. A Supercast feed, which keeps its key in the URL's path
+  rather than the query, was being listed.
+
+## [0.3.0] - 2026-09-11
+
+### Added
+
+- Add feed lists what other people on this server subscribe to, most subscribers first, and
+  subscribes you by id (`GET /api/popular`, `POST /api/popular/{id}`). Feeds from an OPML, and
+  feeds with a login or a key in their URL, are never listed.
+- Upload an OPML file to import, beside the paste box. The page checks it looks like OPML before
+  sending it and clears the picker afterwards.
+- Settings → Manage users: add and remove accounts, and choose who is an admin
+  (`GET`/`POST /api/users`, `PATCH`/`DELETE /api/users/{id}`).
+- Per-user subscriptions, and per-user read, starred and playback state. The existing library is
+  adopted by the admin on first start.
+- Subscribing to a feed someone else already has costs no second fetch and no second copy. Scanning
+  merges every subscriber's wants.
+- Delete on a shared feed reads **Delete for everyone**, and the server answers `409` while anyone
+  else has starred the item or not played it (`?force=true` overrides).
+- A shared feed's header says how many other people read it.
+- `docs/` for configuration, the CLI, users, SSO and architecture, and `CLAUDE.md` for anyone
+  working on the code.
+- Browser tests for OPML import and export by every route, user admin, unread ordering, and
+  `ipx import`/`ipx export`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Feeds inside an OPML subscription list the ones with unread items first.
+- OPML import subscribes you to every feed in the file. `ipx import` subscribes the first admin.
+- OPML export lists only your own subscriptions.
+- Production runs as a Docker image pushed to `192.168.1.130:5000` and recreated with
+  `docker compose`.
+- This changelog follows Keep a Changelog. The long-form entries moved to `docs/history.md`.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Importing another account's OPML export subscribed nobody and reported "Imported 0 feed(s)".
+  Feeds it added had no subscriber, so they were never scanned.
+- Importing something that is not OPML answered `500`. It is now `400` "that is not an OPML file",
+  refused before anything changes.
+- Starring stopped protecting a file from the quota and age sweeps once read state became per-user.
+
+### Security
+
+- The log is admin-only (`GET /api/logs` answers `403`, and the Log button is hidden). It names
+  every account, every feed and every failed sign-in.
+- OPML export no longer hands anyone signed in the whole catalogue, including other people's
+  private feed URLs.
+
+## [0.2.0] - 2026-09-10
+
+### Added
+
+- Web UI served by the daemon: plain HTML and JS compiled into the binary, with feeds, items,
+  filters, search, sanitised show notes and live progress over SSE.
+- Player bar with resume, speed, keyboard shortcuts and lock-screen controls.
+- Three-pane layout: feeds beside, items above, and the selected item's text and files below.
+- Phone layout.
+- Accounts and sign-in: Argon2id passwords, session cookies, `ipx user add|list|passwd|rm`, and a
+  trusted proxy header for Cloudflare Zero Trust or Authentik (`docs/sso.md`).
+- Subscribing to an OPML: it is re-read every scan and its feeds show as a folder. A feed dropped
+  from it is removed unless it has downloads.
+- Scheduling: a global interval with per-feed overrides (`every 30m`, `4h`, `1d`, `2w`).
+- `[general] media_types`, default audio and video, and `max_new_per_check`, default 3.
+- Every enclosure of an item, a View link for files that are not audio or video, and per-item
+  artwork.
+- In-app log view with Daemon I/O, Scans and HTTP tabs.
+- Mark all read on an OPML subscription.
+- Editable feed URL with a copy button.
+- Docker image whose healthcheck goes through the control socket.
+- The iPodderX name, icon, and a colour scheme taken from the icon.
+- `tests/page-smoke.js` and a Playwright browser suite.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Global settings and scan schedules are admin-only. The per-feed schedule picker is gone.
+- Feeds from an OPML live in the database, not `config.toml`.
+- Opening an item marks it read. Playing it marks it read only at the end or past 90%.
+- "Episodes" became "items", since half the library is text.
+- A burst of scan events causes one refresh, not one per feed.
+- All is the default filter. OPML import and export, Settings and Log moved out of the header.
+- Torrents run detached, two at a time.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Download fetched the next queued episodes instead of the one clicked.
+- Pressing play made an item vanish from the Unread list.
+- Clearing a folder, schedule or cap from the UI did nothing.
+- The daemon ignored SIGTERM until the current download finished.
+- A missing function stopped the page script and left the whole UI dead.
+- One download painted progress on every pending row.
+- A torrent could freeze scanning for up to an hour.
+- Downloading from an OPML feed failed with "belongs to unsubscribed feed".
+- Image enclosures were downloaded, counted as episodes and given a play button.
+- A feed whose entries had been deleted stayed empty, because the server kept answering `304`.
+- An item with several enclosures kept only the last.
+- OPML folders rendered open by default.
+- Mark read in the text pane recursed until the stack overflowed.
+- The Unread, Downloaded and Flagged filters answered `500` without a search term.
+- An OPML subscription always showed 0 unread.
+- Folder names kept doubled spaces where separators were stripped.
+- Sidebar rows had four different left edges.
+
+### Security
+
+- The web UI needs a token or a sign-in. The token is compared in constant time, and an empty
+  token refuses to serve.
+- Show notes are sanitised with `ammonia`.
+- A proxy's user header is honoured only from an address in `trusted_proxies`.
+- A feed URL must be http(s), so `file:///etc/passwd` is refused.
+- Download folders are sanitised per path segment, so `../../etc/Show` cannot climb out.
+
+## [0.1.0] - 2026-09-09
+
+### Added
+
+- `ipx`, a Rust rewrite of the iPodderX engine: TOML config, SQLite state, and `ipx list`, `add`,
+  `rm` and `fetch`.
+- RSS and Atom parsing with conditional GET, `<ttl>` and basic auth.
+- Streaming downloads with explicit, keyword and per-scan filters, deduplicated by enclosure URL.
+- Quota and age retention that never touches a starred file, and `ipx reap [--dry-run]`.
+- `ipx daemon` with a JSON-lines Unix socket. CLI commands proxy to a running daemon.
+- Torrent enclosures through librqbit, seeding to a ratio or a time, with a stall timeout.
+- `ipx import` and `ipx export` for OPML, and systemd units in `contrib/`.

+# Working on ipodderx-rs
+
+Notes for whoever picks this up next. Read [docs/architecture.md](docs/architecture.md) for how the
+thing is built; this file is about working on it without repeating mistakes that have already been
+made here.
+
+## Where things are
+
+Production is the `iPodderX` container on Tower (192.168.1.130), the `ipodderx` service of the
+Arcane project `content`: `/mnt/fast/arcane/projects/content/compose.yaml`. That file is what runs;
+`docker-compose.yml` in this repo is a copy, and editing it changes nothing in production.
+
+| | Host | In the container |
+|---|---|---|
+| Image | `192.168.1.130:5000/ipodderx:latest` | |
+| Config | `/mnt/fast/appdata/ipodderx/config.toml` | `/config/config.toml` |
+| Database | `/mnt/user/ipodderx/state.db` | `/data/state.db` |
+| Downloads | `/mnt/user/ipodderx/downloads` | `/downloads` |
+| Web UI | `192.168.1.130:8099`, also `ipodderx.sdf1.net` via a Cloudflare tunnel | `0.0.0.0:8099` |
+
+Deploying a change is: build and push the image, then pull it and recreate the container.
+
+```sh
+docker buildx build --tag 192.168.1.130:5000/ipodderx:latest . --push
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/content/compose.yaml pull ipodderx
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/content/compose.yaml up -d ipodderx
+docker logs --tail 20 iPodderX
+```
+
+**Name the service.** A bare `up -d` recreates every container in `content`, beets and immich
+included. Run `pull` before `up`, because `up` reuses whatever `latest` the host already has.
+
+**A build that fails with `429 Too Many Requests` on a base image** is Docker Hub rate-limiting
+this host. There is no Docker Hub login here, and the build asks about `debian:bookworm-slim` and
+`rust:1-slim-bookworm` every time unless they are already stored locally. Pull them from Google's
+mirror and tag them; the build then uses the local copies without asking Docker Hub:
+
+```sh
+docker pull mirror.gcr.io/library/debian:bookworm-slim
+docker tag mirror.gcr.io/library/debian:bookworm-slim debian:bookworm-slim
+docker pull mirror.gcr.io/library/rust:1-slim-bookworm
+docker tag mirror.gcr.io/library/rust:1-slim-bookworm rust:1-slim-bookworm
+```
+
+Run those again now and then, or the local copies go stale.
+
+The healthcheck runs `ipx status` against the control socket, so `(healthy)` in `docker ps` means
+the worker is alive, not just the web port. The container restarts on its own after a reboot.
+
+Before the container, ipx ran by hand in code-server, with its files in `/config/.config/ipx/` and
+`/config/.local/share/ipx/`. Those are still there and the container does not read them. If you run
+a daemon by hand for testing, stop it with **`pkill -x ipx`, never `pkill -f ipx`**. `-f` matches
+the shell running the command and kills the session (exit 144). This has happened more than once.
+
+## Before you touch the page
+
+`web/index.html` is `include_str!`d into the binary, so **every page change needs a rebuild** before
+it is visible. It is one file: markup, CSS and script.
+
+After any edit to it:
+
+```sh
+node tests/page-smoke.js
+```
+
+That loads the script against a stub DOM and checks every selector it wires at load actually
+exists. It exists because a patch once anchored on a deleted function, `String.replace` silently
+matched nothing, and the whole UI died with a `ReferenceError` while every server-side test passed.
+
+Patching that file by guessing an anchor string has failed repeatedly. Read the exact block first
+(`sed -n 'START,ENDp'`), match it verbatim, and assert the replacement happened rather than hoping.
+
+## Tests
+
+```sh
+cargo test                # ~51 tests: parsing, filters, retention, schedules, SQL, per-user state
+node tests/page-smoke.js
+npx playwright test       # 16 browser tests against a real daemon on fixture feeds
+```
+
+Things about the browser suite that have cost time:
+
+* It starts **its own daemon and database** under `/tmp/ipx-ui-test`, wiped once per run. Playwright
+  re-imports the config in every worker, so `prepare()` guards on `TEST_WORKER_INDEX` — without
+  that guard a worker deleted the database out from under the running daemon, which then kept
+  serving from the unlinked inode while everything else saw an empty file.
+* Tests **share that daemon and run in order**. A test that opens an item marks it read and changes
+  what later tests see. Write assertions that do not depend on what ran before, or normalise the
+  state first.
+* Fixture feeds must not share an enclosure URL, because `enclosures.url` is globally unique and
+  whichever feed is scanned first claims it.
+* `webServer` starts **before** `globalSetup`, which is why the fixture config is written at
+  config-load time instead.
+
+Non-trivial logic leaves one runnable check behind. Pure functions (`merge_policy`, `pick`,
+`matches_keywords`, `parse_interval`) are the easiest place to put it.
+
+## Things that are true and easy to get wrong
+
+* **`enclosures.url` is globally UNIQUE.** It is the dedupe key and the reason one file serves every
+  subscriber. Two feeds publishing the same URL means only the first one scanned shows it.
+* **Read state lives in `entry_state`, per user, and nowhere else.** `entries` had `read`, `flagged`
+  and `position` columns from before accounts; two bugs came from queries still reading them
+  (retention, and the entry pruner), and `migrate()` now drops them.
+* **The catalogue is config.toml; the subscriptions are in the database.** A feed exists once;
+  `subscriptions(user_id, feed_id)` says who wants it and with what settings. OPML children are
+  derived and never written to config.
+* **One fetch serves everyone**, so scan policy is a union of subscribers' wants (`merge_policy`).
+  Anyone wanting an item is enough to fetch it.
+* **The UI hiding a control is not enforcement.** Admin-only actions check `user.is_admin` in the
+  handler and return `403`.
+* **A `tokio::select!` only races its branches at the point of selection.** A long download has to
+  watch the shutdown channel itself; the daemon ignored SIGTERM for exactly this reason.
+* Only one daemon per socket. Removing the socket file defeats the guard and you get two daemons
+  fighting over the database, with the stale one still holding the port.
+* `/api/settings` answering `200` does **not** mean the worker is alive — it is a different task.
+  Probe the control socket (`ipx status`) to check that.
+* **Every `ipx` command runs `migrate()` when it opens the database**, the healthcheck's
+  `ipx status` included. A migration that rewrites a big table (`DROP COLUMN`) takes seconds on
+  production, and a command run meanwhile fails with `migrating schema`. It changes nothing; wait
+  for `daemon started` in the log. Copy `state.db` aside before deploying one.
+
+## House style
+
+Comments explain **why**, not what. If a line looks odd, the comment says what went wrong without
+it. No emoji, no exclamation marks, no "obviously". Prose in the UI and docs is plain English and
+addressed to the person using it.
+
+Every change gets one line under `## [Unreleased]` in [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md), in its
+[Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/) group: Added, Changed, Deprecated,
+Removed, Fixed or Security. Say it the way someone using ipx would notice it. When there is more to
+say, such as what was wrong before or what it cost to find out, write it up at the top of
+[docs/history.md](docs/history.md), dated. That record has been more useful than the git log more
+than once.
+
+Cutting a release: rename `[Unreleased]` to `## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD` and open a new empty
+`[Unreleased]` above it, bump `version` in `Cargo.toml`, tag the commit `vX.Y.Z`, and update the
+compare links at the bottom of the changelog.
+
+Deliberate simplifications get a `ponytail:` comment naming the ceiling and the upgrade path, e.g.
+`// ponytail: global connection mutex, move to a pool if feed count makes it contend`.
+
+## Known gaps
+
+* Cloudflare's `Cf-Access-Jwt-Assertion` is not verified — ipx trusts the hop plus `trusted_proxies`
+  (documented in [docs/sso.md](docs/sso.md)).
+* A feed's `<description>` subtitle is dropped whenever `content:encoded` exists, which loses
+  Substack-style subtitles.

-- [x] **1. Repo skeleton** — git init (`main`), `cargo init --name ipx`, deps pinned, LICENSE,
-      README, this file.
-- [x] **2. `config.rs` + `db.rs`** — TOML config structs + SQLite schema.

-- [x] **4. `download.rs`** — downloads, filters, dedupe.
-- [x] **5. `retention.rs`** — oldest-first quota + age reaper.
-- [x] **6. `ipc.rs` + daemon** — UDS JSON-lines server, TTL scheduler, CLI-proxies-to-daemon.
-- [x] **7. `torrent.rs`** — librqbit, seed to ratio/time, stall abort. (swarm download unverified —

-## Smoke tests
-
-1. `ipx add <feed>` + `ipx fetch` → file in `download_dir/<Show>/`, row in `enclosures`.
-2. `ipx fetch` again → no re-download, feed skipped for TTL.
-3. `ipx daemon &` + `nc -U $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/ipx.sock`, send `{"cmd":"fetch"}` → JSON events;
-   a concurrent `ipx fetch` proxies to the daemon instead of downloading in parallel.
-4. Delete a downloaded file by hand, `ipx fetch` → NOT re-downloaded.
-5. Torrent enclosure → downloads, moves, stops seeding at the configured ratio/time.
-6. `ipx reap --dry-run` under quota pressure → oldest-first hit list; real run flips rows to
-   `reaped`.

----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 8: OPML and polish
-
-`ipx add <url>` fetches the feed to name it from its own title (`Accidental Tech Podcast` ->
-`accidental-tech-podcast`); a feed that cannot be reached is still added, named from its URL, rather
-than refused. `ipx rm` leaves downloads and history alone, so re-adding a feed does not re-pull its
-back catalogue. `ipx import`/`export` walk nested OPML folder outlines and skip URLs already
-subscribed. `tracing` logs to stderr, `IPX_LOG` sets the filter. `contrib/` has a systemd user unit
-for the daemon, plus a timer and one-shot service for the no-daemon style (with the caveat that
-without a daemon there is no socket for a UI).
-
-Verified: `cargo test` 27/27. Round-trip — exported 3 feeds with real titles, removed one,
-re-imported: exactly the missing one came back, no duplicates, config still mode 0600. Quickstart
-from a genuinely empty home with no env overrides: `list` on a missing config, `add`, `fetch`
-(1 downloaded, 1 explicit skipped, 1 torrent 404), `list`; every path resolved under `$HOME`.
-
----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 7: torrent.rs
-
-`src/torrent.rs`: a librqbit `Session` started lazily on first torrent (binding ports and starting a
-DHT for a config that has never seen a torrent would be rude). `.torrent` URLs and magnets both go
-through `AddTorrent::from_url`. Progress is polled once a second and reported through the same
-`Progress` events HTTP downloads use.
-
-Downloads go **straight into the feed folder** rather than staging and moving. The plan said move
-then seed, which cannot work — seeding serves the files it downloaded, so moving them first breaks
-it. In-place also removes a copy the original had to do.
-
-Seeding stops at `seed_ratio` or `seed_time_mins`, whichever comes first, then the torrent is
-released from the session (files kept).
-
-**Bug the smoke test caught:** the stall budget only covered the download loop, but resolving a
-magnet's metadata happens inside `add_torrent`, which against a dead swarm never returns — a
-torrent nobody seeds wedged the scan indefinitely. `add_torrent` is now wrapped in the same budget.
-
-Verified: `cargo test` 27/27 (ratio incl. the divide-by-zero case, stall_mins = 0 not meaning
-"abort instantly"). Routing: with `enabled = false` a torrent enclosure is marked
-`skipped/torrents disabled` and never attempted. Session startup works here. Stall abort measured
-end to end: with `stall_mins = 1`, a dead magnet failed at 20:58:23 -> 20:59:24, exactly 61s, and
-the row recorded `error / no metadata after 1 minutes, gave up`.
-
-**Not verified: an actual successful swarm download.** This sandbox has no reachable peers, so
-smoke 5's happy path — payload lands, seeding stops at the ratio — has not been run. The code paths
-either side of it are tested; the swarm itself needs a real network. Worth running once against a
-live torrent feed before trusting it.
-
----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 6: ipc.rs + daemon
-
-`src/ipc.rs`: `Event` and `Command` as serde-tagged enums (`{"ev":...}` / `{"cmd":...}`), one JSON
-object per line over a Unix socket. `Emitter` is the single output path — it broadcasts to socket
-clients, prints the human rendering to a terminal, or both, so the scan code no longer knows how it
-is being watched. That replaces `printMSG` and its `;;1;;1;;100.00;;42.31` sentinels.
-
-`main.rs` restructured around a `Ctx` (config, db, client, emitter). `ipx daemon` binds the socket,
-serves clients, and runs a 60s ticker that defers to each feed's TTL. Commands from every client
-funnel through one mpsc queue into a single worker, which is what stops two scans overlapping.
-Any CLI subcommand with a wire form probes the socket first and proxies to a running daemon;
-`--local` forces the work to happen in-process. SIGINT/SIGTERM remove the socket on the way out.
-
-**Bug the smoke test caught:** `fetch` runs a retention sweep first, and that sweep was emitting the
-terminal `ReapDone`. A UI waiting for its fetch to finish would have stopped reading before the scan
-started. Only a standalone `ipx reap` emits it now.
-
-Verified: `cargo test` 24/24. Smoke 3 in full — daemon starts and binds; a raw socket client sending
-`{"cmd":"fetch","force":true}` gets `feed_start` → 14 throttled `progress` events → `download_done`
-→ `feed_done` → `scan_done`; `{"cmd":"status"}` answers `{"ev":"status","feeds":1,...}`. With the
-daemon up, `ipx fetch` from the CLI logged `command from a client cmd=Fetch { .. }` in the daemon
-and rendered the streamed events, so it proxied rather than downloading in parallel. Socket removed
-on SIGTERM; with no daemon the same command runs locally.
-
-Deferred: `{"cmd":"cancel","enclosure":N}` from the plan's protocol is **not implemented** —
-downloads run sequentially in one worker, so there is nothing to cancel concurrently yet. It wants
-a per-download cancellation token, which is worth doing when downloads go parallel. Say if you want
-it sooner.
-
-Note: the event stream is a broadcast, so a CLI client seeing a busy daemon also sees that other
-work. Fine for a terminal; a UI wanting strict request/response would want per-request ids.
-
-Also note: the daemon reads config once at startup — changing `config.toml` needs a restart.
-
-Next: step 7 — `torrent.rs`.
-
----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 5: retention.rs
-
-`src/retention.rs`: reconcile pass (rows claiming a file that is gone become `reaped`, fixing the
-step-4 wart), age sweep, quota sweep keeping the original's 50 MB headroom pad, and entry pruning.
-`ipx reap [--dry-run]`; a sweep also runs before every `fetch`, as the Python did per download.
-`pick()` and `aged()` are pure so the ordering rules are testable without touching a disk.
-
-**Judgement call worth Ray's eye.** The Python meant to reap only `read = 1 AND flagged = 0` but
-never managed it — a missing `plistlib` import and an `EntreiesData` typo made that filter throw on
-every candidate, so with a `.ipxd` present nothing was ever deleted. Requiring `read = 1` here would
-be equally dead, because nothing marks episodes read until a UI exists. So: **`flagged` is the
-keep-forever marker, and `read` only decides what goes first** (`ORDER BY read DESC, downloaded_at
-ASC`). Quota therefore actually reclaims space headless. Say the word if you would rather unread
-episodes were never touched.
-
-Second call: `max_age_days` deletes *files* older than the cutoff, not just fileless entries as the
-plan's wording had it — "keep 30 days of episodes" is what the setting reads like on a NAS.
-
-Verified: `cargo test` 21/21, including the two tests encoding the exact bug the Python had —
-flagged files are never offered, and read sort ahead of unread. Smoke 6 with three 30 MB episodes
-against a 0.1 GB quota (52.4 MB ceiling after the pad): dry run listed ep1+ep2 and deleted nothing
-(3 files still on disk), the real run deleted exactly those two oldest, left ep3, flipped both rows
-to `reaped` with `path = NULL`. A full re-parse with the conditional-GET headers cleared then
-re-downloaded nothing.
-
-Next: step 6 — `ipc.rs` + daemon.
-
----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 4: download.rs
-
-`src/download.rs`: streaming download to `<download_dir>/.ipx-incomplete/` (same filesystem as the
-destination, so filing it is a rename, not the original's copy-then-unlink), content sniffing,
-then `place()`. Filename comes from the URL's last path segment, percent-decoded, unless
-`Content-Disposition` names one (RFC 5987 `filename*=` preferred). The sanitizer keeps UTF-8 —
-`latin1_to_ascii` existed because 2004 filesystems demanded ASCII — strips the same characters
-`stringCleaning()` did plus control chars, and adds a real 255-byte cap the Python never had,
-preserving the extension across truncation.
-
-Sniffing replaces `detectFileType()`, which called a `typeFile` module that was already missing in
-2008 and so always answered `'data'`. Two rules survive: an HTML body is a failed download (login
-wall/error page), and a torrent body is a torrent whatever the MIME claimed.
-
-Filters run once at discovery and are recorded in `enclosures.state`; the download queue is then
-just "everything still `pending`", so an enclosure held back by `max_new_per_check` is picked up by
-the next scan instead of being lost. Keywords are OR'd across keywords and AND'd within one — the
-original's nested loop let a later keyword silently undo an earlier miss.
-
-Verified: `cargo test` 16/16. Smoke against a local server, five enclosures, each filter path hit:
-`ep1.mp3 -> done`, `ep2.mp3 -> skipped (explicit)`, `ep2.mp3?v=3 -> skipped (no keyword match)`,
-`paywall.html -> error (HTML page, not media)`, `ep5.torrent -> torrent (deferred to step 7)`.
-Smoke 2 and 4 pass, and because a plain rerun 304s before parsing, dedupe was proved separately by
-clearing the stored etag/last-modified and re-parsing all five entries: 0 downloaded, hand-deleted
-file not refetched, `.ipx-incomplete` left empty.
-
-Known wart: `ipx list` counts `path IS NOT NULL`, so a hand-deleted file still reads as downloaded.
-Reconciling rows against the filesystem belongs in step 5.
-Next: step 5 — `retention.rs`.
-
----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 3: feed.rs
-
-`src/feed.rs`: conditional GET (`If-None-Match` + `If-Modified-Since`, optional basic auth) and a
-RSS-first / Atom-fallback parser normalising both into `ParsedFeed`/`Entry`/`Enclosure`. Feed-level
-`itunes:explicit` overrides the entry level, as the original did. `<ttl>` is captured. RSS
-`content:encoded` wins over `description`. Atom enclosures come only from `rel="enclosure"` links.
-
-GUID: the original hashed the title or description when no guid existed; here the chain is
-guid → permalink → enclosure URL → title, all stable identifiers, so no hashing and no MD5
-dependency. An entry with none of them has nothing to download and is dropped.
-
-`db.rs` gained `http_state`, `record_feed`, `touch_feed`, `set_feed_error`, `record_entry`,
-`record_enclosure`. A changed title/description flips `read` back to 0 — what the original's
-textDiff was ultimately for, minus the `<ins>`/`<del>` markup, which belongs in the UI.
-
-`main.rs` gained `ipx fetch [FEED] [--force]`. A failing feed records its error and the scan
-continues.
-
-Verified: `cargo test` 10/10. Gate met against a local `python3 -m http.server` serving the
-fixtures — first run inserted 4 entries + 4 enclosures across an RSS and an Atom feed; second run
-showed both skip paths, `atomcast: not modified` (304) and `testcast: not due for 45m` (the feed's
-own ttl=45 beating `interval_mins = 0`).
-
-Deferred: nothing downloads yet — enclosure rows land in state `pending`. That is step 4.
-Next: step 4 — `download.rs`.
-
----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 2: config.rs + db.rs
-
-`src/config.rs`: serde structs for `[general]`, `[torrent]` and `[feeds.<id>]` with defaults, `~`
-expansion, `IPX_CONFIG` / `IPX_DATA_DIR` overrides, `save()` at mode 0600, `Feed::password()`
-(`password_env` beats a literal `password`), `Torrent::ports()` parsing `"6881-6889"`. A missing
-config file loads as an empty one so a fresh install works. Retention defaults are 0/0
-(unlimited, keep forever) — nothing gets deleted until Ray asks for it.
-
-`src/db.rs`: schema exactly as planned, WAL + `busy_timeout`, `Db::open()` idempotent, connection
-behind a `Mutex`, `feed_summary()` for `list`, `now()` helper. `enclosures.url` is UNIQUE — the
-dedupe key that replaces `history.dat`.
-
-`src/main.rs`: clap skeleton with `ipx list`. Only the subcommands that work exist; the rest arrive
-with their steps.
-
-Verified: `cargo test` 5/5 green (config defaults, port-range fallback incl. reversed range,
-password_env precedence, schema idempotency, enclosure-url uniqueness). Gate met — `ipx --config
-<scratch> list` printed both feeds and created `state.db` once across two runs.
-
-Deferred: nothing. Two dead-code warnings (`Config::save`, `Feed::password`) are expected; steps 3
-and 8 consume them.
-Next: step 3 — `feed.rs`.
-
-Also added `chrono` 0.4 (std, clock) for RFC-2822 pubDate parsing in step 3.
-
----
-
-## 2026-09-09 — Step 1: repo skeleton
-
-Repo created at `/src/ipodderx-rs`, default branch `main`, `cargo init --name ipx` (edition 2024,
-rustc 1.95.0). LICENSE (MIT, carrying the 2010 copyright), README with the lineage note, and this
-file. Hello-world `main.rs` builds.
-
-Dependency versions pinned today — the later steps are written against these APIs:
-
-| crate | version | notes |
-|---|---|---|
-| tokio | 1.53.1 | rt-multi-thread, macros, fs, io-util, net, sync, time, signal |
-| reqwest | 0.13.5 | `default-features = false`; features **`rustls`** (not `rustls-tls` — renamed in 0.13), http2, gzip, stream, json, charset, **`system-proxy`** (env-var proxy pickup is opt-in in 0.13) |
-| rss | 2.1.1 | default features; the `with-syndication` feature name in my notes does not exist — Atom is handled by the separate crate |
-| atom_syndication | 0.12.10 | |
-| rusqlite | 0.40.2 | `bundled` |
-| librqbit | 9.0.1 | `default-features = false`; features `rust-tls`, `http-api-client`. The default `default-tls` feature pulls reqwest/native-tls **and** an OpenSSL sha1 backend (`crypto-hash`), which fails to build without pkg-config/OpenSSL headers. API not yet exercised — step 7 |
-| serde 1.0.229 / serde_json 1.0.151 / toml 1.1.5 | | |
-| clap | 4.6.6 | derive |
-| infer 0.22.0 / dirs 7.0.0 / anyhow 1.0.104 / opml 1.1.6 | | |
-| tracing 0.1.44 / tracing-subscriber 0.3.23 | | env-filter |
-
-Deferred: nothing.
-
-Gotcha worth keeping: three feature names in the plan were wrong against current crate versions —
-`reqwest/rustls-tls` is now `rustls`, env-var proxy support moved behind `system-proxy`, and
-`rss/with-syndication` does not exist. `librqbit`'s default features drag in OpenSSL; `rust-tls`
-is the fix. Whole tree is rustls-only now, no C TLS dependency.
-Next: step 2 — `config.rs` + `db.rs`. (done)

+# To do
+
+## Cut what is no longer needed
+
+From a whole-repo audit for over-engineering on 2026-09-12. Biggest cut first.
+
+- [x] **Pre-accounts adoption and the dead `entries` columns.** The copy of the old read state into
+  `entry_state` and the `entries.read`, `flagged` and `position` columns are gone. Its other half,
+  subscribing the first admin to the catalogue, was not dead and stays as `adopt_catalogue`.
+  (`src/db.rs`, `src/main.rs`)
+- [x] **`contrib/` systemd units.** From before the container; nothing points at them.
+- [x] **`migrate_opml_children`.** A one-time move of OPML children out of `config.toml` that has
+  run. Delete it and its call. (`src/main.rs`)
+- [x] **The legacy `interval_mins` key.** Production uses `schedule`. Delete the field, the fallback
+  in `General::interval` and its test. (`src/config.rs`)
+- [x] **`Db::entries` and `Db::count_entries`.** One-line wrappers only the tests call; the tests
+  call `entries_in` and `count_in` instead. (`src/db.rs`)
+- [x] **`web::generate_token`.** Repeats `auth::new_session_token`. Use that. (`src/web.rs`)
+- [x] **Page leftovers.** `globalEvery`, `S.busy`, `S.limit`, `unitOptions`' `firstLabel`, `--r`,
+  `.ep.open`, the phone `.ep .art`, the duplicate phone `.fhead.slim{flex-wrap}`, the second
+  `#sidebar{z-index}`, and the `on()` helper. (`web/index.html`)
+- [x] **`logbuf` visitors.** `record_i64`, `record_u64` and `record_bool` repeat what `Visit`'s
+  defaults already do through `record_debug`. (`src/logbuf.rs`)
+- [x] **The `infer` dependency.** Its torrent check is the `d8:announce` test on the next line.
+- [x] **The `dirs` dependency.** `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, `XDG_DATA_HOME` and `HOME` from `std::env`.
+- [x] **The `tokio-stream` dependency.** `futures_util::stream::unfold` over the broadcast receiver.
+- [x] **The icon inlined four times.** About 94 KB of base64 across both pages; serve it once as
+  `/icon.png` from `include_bytes!`, open without signing in like `/login`.
+
+After these: `cargo test`, `node tests/page-smoke.js`, `npx playwright test`.

+# How it works
+
+One binary, `ipx`. `ipx daemon` runs three things in one process: a scheduler, a Unix-socket
+control server, and the web UI. Everything else is a CLI that either does the work itself or hands
+it to a running daemon.
+
+## Modules
+
+| File | Responsibility | What it replaced in the Python |
+|---|---|---|
+| `src/main.rs` | CLI, dispatch, scan loop, download policy | `iPXAgent.py` |
+| `src/config.rs` | TOML load/save, `General`/`Feed`/`Web`, intervals, slugs | `iPXSettings.py`, `feeds.plist` |
+| `src/db.rs` | SQLite schema, migrations, every query | `.ipxd` plists, `history.dat`, `qmcache.dat` |
+| `src/feed.rs` | Conditional GET, RSS/Atom/OPML parsing | `FeedData.__getFeed/__getEntries` |
+| `src/download.rs` | Streaming download, naming, type sniffing, placement | `iPXDownloader.getFile` |
+| `src/torrent.rs` | librqbit session, seeding limits, stall abort | vendored BitTorrent 4.2.1 |
+| `src/retention.rs` | Quota and age sweeps | `iPXQuotaManager.py` |
+| `src/ipc.rs` | Event and command types, the socket server | `printMSG` on stdout |
+| `src/auth.rs` | Argon2id hashing, session tokens, header names | — |
+| `src/web.rs` | axum: HTTP API, auth, SSE, media streaming | — |
+| `src/logbuf.rs` | Ring buffer behind the UI's Log view | — |
+| `web/index.html` | The whole front end, `include_str!`d into the binary | — |
+
+The page is compiled in, so **editing `web/index.html` needs a rebuild**.
+
+## A scan
+
+1. Skip the feed unless `last_checked + max(schedule, ttl)` has passed (`--force` ignores this).
+2. Conditional GET with the stored `ETag` / `Last-Modified`. `304` ends it there.
+3. Sniff the body: RSS, then Atom, then OPML. An OPML is a live subscription — its feeds are
+   re-derived into the database each scan, never written to config.toml. A Patreon creator link
+   (a token, no `show=`) with more than one show is treated the same way, before any fetch: its
+   shows come from Patreon's web API and each becomes a derived feed.
+4. Record entries. A changed title or description flips the item back to unread.
+5. Record enclosures. `enclosures.url` is `UNIQUE`, which is the dedupe key and subsumes the
+   original's `history.dat` pickle: a reaped file keeps its row so it is never fetched twice.
+6. Apply the merged policy (see [users.md](users.md)) and mark anything rejected as `skipped` with
+   a reason. What a filter skipped is judged again every scan, so a change of settings brings it
+   back. A feed in a group takes your settings on the group for anything you have not set on it.
+7. Download what is still pending, newest first, up to the per-scan cap. A `.torrent` body goes to
+   the torrent path whatever its advertised type; an HTML body is a failed download — a login wall
+   or an error page — and is deleted.
+
+## Data model
+
+```
+feeds       id, url, title, image, etag, last_modified, last_checked, ttl_mins,
+            last_error, orphaned, group_id, managed
+entries     feed_id, guid, title, link, published, description, first_seen,
+            image, duration, episode, season            PK (feed_id, guid)
+enclosures  id, feed_id, guid, url UNIQUE, mime, length, path, state,
+            bytes_done, downloaded_at, last_error
+users       id, name, pass_hash, is_admin, created
+sessions    token, user_id, created, seen
+subscriptions  user_id, feed_id, keywords, auto_download, allow_explicit,
+               max_new_per_check, created                PK (user_id, feed_id)
+entry_state    user_id, feed_id, guid, read, flagged, position
+                                                         PK (user_id, feed_id, guid)
+```
+
+Read state is `entry_state` alone. `entries` had `read`, `flagged` and `position` columns from
+before accounts; two bugs came from queries still reading them, and `migrate()` drops them from an
+older database.
+
+Schema changes: add the table or column to `SCHEMA`, and for a column also to the list in
+`migrate()`, which does `PRAGMA table_info` then `ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN`. `Db::memory()` runs the
+same path as `Db::open`, so a migration-only column cannot pass tests while missing in production.
+
+## Control socket
+
+Newline-delimited JSON, both directions, over `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/ipx.sock`.
+
+```sh
+printf '{"cmd":"fetch","force":true}\n' | socat - UNIX-CONNECT:$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/ipx.sock
+{"ev":"feed_start","feed":"atp"}
+{"ev":"progress","feed":"atp","enclosure":42,"file":"ep1.mp3","done":8192,"total":3000000}
+{"ev":"download_done","feed":"atp","enclosure":42,"path":"…","bytes":3000000}
+{"ev":"feed_done","feed":"atp","new":1,"downloaded":1,"failed":0,"torrents":0}
+{"ev":"scan_done","feeds":1}
+```
+
+**Commands** — `fetch` (optional `feed`, `force`), `reap` (optional `dry_run`), `download`
+(`enclosure`), `status`.
+
+**Events** — `feed_start`, `feed_skip`, `feed_done`, `feed_error`, `progress`, `download_done`,
+`download_error`, `torrent_deferred`, `reaped`, `reap_done`, `scan_done`, `status`, `error`.
+`scan_done`, `reap_done` and `status` are terminal: a client that asked for work stops reading
+there.
+
+Progress carries the enclosure id, without which a UI cannot tell one download from another and
+ends up animating every pending row. It is throttled to whole percents. The stream is a broadcast,
+so a client attached to a busy daemon also sees that daemon's other work.
+
+Inside the process the same events go over a `tokio::broadcast`; commands arrive on an `mpsc` and
+are handled by a single worker, so nothing races over the same download. Shutdown is a `watch`
+channel raced *inside* each job — `tokio::select!` only races branches at the point of selection,
+so a long download had to be able to notice the signal itself.
+
+## HTTP API
+
+Everything below `/api` needs a signed-in user; the browser gets a redirect to `/login`, anything
+else a `401`.
+
+| Route | |
+|---|---|
+| `GET /` | the app |
+| `GET /login`, `POST /api/login`, `POST /api/logout`, `GET /api/me` | sign-in |
+| `GET /api/feeds`, `POST /api/feeds` | your subscriptions; subscribe |
+| `PATCH /api/feeds/{id}`, `DELETE /api/feeds/{id}` | your settings or (admin) the feed's; unsubscribe |
+| `GET /api/feeds/{id}/entries` | paged, filtered, searchable, sortable (`sort` = kept, title, feed, type, size or published; `dir` = asc or desc) |
+| `GET /api/entries` | the same, across every feed you subscribe to (All Subscriptions) |
+| `POST /api/feeds/{id}/read-all`, `POST /api/feeds/{id}/download-latest` | |
+| `POST /api/read-all` | everything read in every feed you subscribe to (All Subscriptions) |
+| `POST /api/entries/{feed}/{guid}/flags`, `…/position` | your read, kept, position |
+| `POST /api/enclosures/{id}/download`, `DELETE /api/enclosures/{id}` | `?force=true` overrides the shared-file warning |
+| `POST /api/fetch` | |
+| `GET /api/opml`, `POST /api/opml` | export your subscriptions; subscribe to every feed in an OPML |
+| `GET /api/popular`, `GET /api/directory`, `POST /api/popular/{id}` | the ten most subscribed feeds, and every listable feed A to Z, with everyone counted (id, title, art, count, whether it is yours; never a URL, never a private feed); subscribe by id |
+| `GET /api/settings`, `PATCH /api/settings` | admin-only to write |
+| `GET /api/users`, `POST /api/users`, `PATCH /api/users/{id}`, `DELETE /api/users/{id}` | admin-only; the only admin cannot be demoted or removed |
+| `GET /api/events` | SSE, the same broadcast the socket carries |
+| `GET /api/logs` | admin-only; the ring buffer, with a sequence cursor |
+| `GET /media/{id}` | the file, with Range support so seeking works |
+
+Show notes are feed-supplied HTML from an untrusted source, sanitized with `ammonia` server-side
+before they reach the page.
+
+## Testing
+
+```sh
+cargo test                # parsing, filters, retention, schedules, SQL, per-user isolation
+node tests/page-smoke.js  # the page script loads and every selector it wires at load exists
+npx playwright test       # a real browser against a real daemon on fixture feeds
+```
+
+The Rust tests cannot see a wrong selector, a handler that runs and does nothing, or a page that
+renders empty — which is what has actually reached users. Each Playwright case maps to a bug that
+did.
+
+The suite starts its own daemon and database under `/tmp/ipx-ui-test`, wiped once per run. Tests
+share that daemon and run in order, so a test that marks something read changes what later tests
+see — make assertions that do not depend on earlier ones.

+# Command line
+
+```
+ipx [--config PATH] [--local] <command>
+```
+
+Every command that has a wire form probes the control socket first: if a daemon is running, the
+daemon does the work and the CLI just renders the events it streams back. That is deliberate — two
+processes must never download the same thing. `--local` forces the work to happen in-process.
+
+| Command | What it does |
+|---|---|
+| `ipx list` | Subscriptions and their state |
+| `ipx status` | Counts: feeds, pending, downloaded |
+| `ipx fetch [FEED] [--force]` | Scan everything, or one feed. `--force` ignores the TTL |
+| `ipx add <url> [--folder X] [--keywords a,b]` | Subscribe; the id comes from the feed title |
+| `ipx rm <feed>` | Unsubscribe; downloads and history are kept |
+| `ipx import <file.opml>` / `ipx export <file.opml>` | Move subscriptions in or out. Import subscribes the first admin, as the shared web token does; in the web UI it subscribes whoever is signed in |
+| `ipx reap [--dry-run]` | Run retention now |
+| `ipx user <add\|list\|passwd\|rm>` | Accounts for the web UI |
+| `ipx daemon [--web ADDR]` | Scheduler, control socket and web UI |
+
+## Accounts
+
+Passwords are read from **stdin**, so they miss the shell history and any `ps` listing.
+
+```sh
+echo -n 'a good password' | ipx user add ray          # local account
+ipx user add ray@example.com --no-password            # signs in through the proxy only
+echo -n 'a good password' | ipx user passwd admin     # change a password
+ipx user list                                         # who exists, and how each signs in
+ipx user rm sam                                       # account, subscriptions and read state
+```
+
+The first account created is an admin; later ones are ordinary users. A database with no accounts
+at all gets **admin / ipodderx** on the next daemon start, announced in the log — change it.
+
+To avoid even the command line, read it interactively:
+
+```sh
+read -s PW && echo -n "$PW" | ipx user passwd admin
+```
+
+## Scanning
+
+```sh
+ipx fetch                      # everything due
+ipx fetch atp --force          # one feed, ignoring its TTL and schedule
+```
+
+A scan: conditional GET (`If-None-Match` / `If-Modified-Since`), parse, record new entries, apply
+the filters, then download up to the per-scan cap, newest first. A feed nothing has changed in
+answers `304` and costs one request.
+
+## Retention
+
+```sh
+ipx reap --dry-run             # what would go, oldest first
+ipx reap                       # actually delete
+```
+
+Files are deleted to get back under `max_total_gb`, oldest first, and items past `max_age_days`
+with no file are pruned from the database. **An item anyone kept keeps its file**, and one only counts
+as read when everyone subscribed has read it. The enclosure row survives as `reaped`, which is what
+stops the next scan fetching it again.
+
+## The daemon
+
+```sh
+ipx daemon                     # scheduler + socket + web UI
+ipx daemon --web 0.0.0.0:8099  # override the configured bind for one run
+```
+
+One daemon per socket; a second refuses to start rather than fight over the database. It shuts down
+cleanly on SIGTERM, including mid-download.
+
+To kill it, match the binary exactly:
+
+```sh
+pkill -x ipx
+```
+
+`pkill -f ipx` matches the shell running the command too, and kills your own session.
+
+## Talking to it directly
+
+```sh
+printf '{"cmd":"fetch","force":true}\n' | socat - UNIX-CONNECT:$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/ipx.sock
+```
+
+See [architecture.md](architecture.md#control-socket) for the protocol.

+
+`~` is expanded in paths. The database is SQLite in WAL mode; back it up by copying `state.db`
+while the daemon is stopped, or with `sqlite3 state.db .backup`.

+download_dir      = "~/Podcasts"
+socket            = "/run/user/1000/ipx.sock"
+schedule          = "every 1h"      # "every 30m", "every 4h", "2d", "90" (minutes)

+```
+
+* **`schedule`** — how often feeds are re-checked. A feed's own `<ttl>` still wins when it asks to
+  be polled *less* often, and a per-feed `schedule` overrides both. Admin-only from the UI.
+* **`organize`** — `feed` files downloads under the feed's folder; `date` under `YYYY-MM-DD`.
+* **`max_total_gb`** — the reaper deletes to get back under this, oldest first, keeping a 50 MB
+  pad. Kept items are never deleted, and a file only counts as read once every subscriber has
+  read it. `0` disables it entirely.
+* **`max_age_days`** — items older than this with no file on disk are pruned from the database.
+  Kept ones stay. `0` disables it.
+* **`max_new_per_check`** — the cap that stops a new subscription pulling a whole back catalogue.
+  `0` means unlimited, which is rarely what you want: subscribing to an OPML of 80 feeds with no cap
+  fetched 216 files and 22 GB in one scan.
+* **`media_types`** — top-level MIME types taken automatically. Anything else is still listed and
+  can be fetched by hand; blog feeds put each article's header image in an `<enclosure>`, and
+  without this the disk fills with artwork. Empty takes everything.

+password_env       = "IPX_ATP_PASS"              # preferred over a literal `password`
+```
+
+With more than one account, **`keywords`, `auto_download`, `allow_explicit` and
+`max_new_per_check` live on each person's subscription in the database**, not here — the values in
+config.toml are the fallback for a feed nobody has claimed. The keys above describe the feed itself
+and are the same for everyone. See [users.md](users.md).
+
+Feeds derived from a subscribed OPML are **not** written here: the OPML is the source of truth and
+they are re-derived on every scan. Editing one in the UI promotes it to a real config entry.

+# Signing in through Cloudflare Zero Trust or Authentik
+
+ipx can take the signed-in identity from whatever sits in front of it, instead of asking for a
+password itself. Both products below do the same thing in the end: they authenticate the person and
+pass the result to the origin in a **header**. ipx reads that header, finds (or creates) the
+matching account, and gets on with it.
+
+Read [How this is secured](#how-this-is-secured) before exposing anything. The short version: a
+header is worth exactly as much as the hop that set it, so ipx only believes one from an address you
+list.
+
+---
+
+## The ipx side (both setups)
+
+```toml
+[web]
+enabled = true
+bind    = "0.0.0.0:8099"
+token   = "…"                                  # keep it: it is the admin, used by the healthcheck
+
+# The header your proxy sets. Empty (the default) disables this whole path.
+trusted_header = "Cf-Access-Authenticated-User-Email"   # Authentik: "X-authentik-username"
+
+# Addresses allowed to assert that header -- the proxy, and nothing else.
+trusted_proxies = ["127.0.0.1", "::1"]
+
+# Create an account the first time the proxy vouches for a name ipx has not seen.
+auto_create_users = true
+
+session_days = 30
+```
+
+Restart the daemon after editing. Accounts made this way have **no password**: they can only ever
+arrive through the proxy. `ipx user list` marks them `proxy only`.
+
+The first account created is an admin. Every later one is an ordinary user, and an ordinary user
+cannot change global settings, a feed's URL or folder, or how often feeds are scanned: the API
+refuses those with a `403`, not just the UI. Everything else about a feed (which items they want,
+whether to fetch them, how many at a time) is theirs alone; see [users.md](users.md).
+
+Somebody arriving through the proxy for the first time starts with **no feeds**, because
+subscriptions are per person. Adding a feed someone else already reads costs no second fetch and no
+second copy on disk.
+
+Promote someone with:
+
+```sh
+ipx user list
+echo -n 'a good password' | ipx user passwd <name>   # optional: also lets them sign in directly
+```
+
+Local sign-in at `/login` keeps working alongside all of this, which is how you get in from the LAN
+when the tunnel is down. So does the shared `[web] token`, which signs in as the admin: that is
+what the Docker healthcheck uses, and the way back in if you lock yourself out. A brand new database
+starts with **admin / ipodderx** — change it.
+
+---
+
+## Cloudflare Zero Trust
+
+This is what runs `ipodderx.sdf1.net`: a `cloudflared` tunnel to the origin, with an Access
+application in front of it. Cloudflare authenticates the visitor and adds
+`Cf-Access-Authenticated-User-Email` to every request it forwards.
+
+### 1. The tunnel
+
+In **Zero Trust → Networks → Tunnels**, either use the existing tunnel or create one, then add a
+public hostname:
+
+| Field | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Subdomain / domain | `ipodderx` / `sdf1.net` |
+| Type | HTTP |
+| URL | `localhost:8099` (or the LAN address of the box) |
+
+Use `localhost` when `cloudflared` runs on the same machine as ipx — that keeps the origin request
+coming from `127.0.0.1`, which is already in `trusted_proxies`. If `cloudflared` runs elsewhere (its
+own container, another host), put **its** address in `trusted_proxies` instead, and make sure
+nothing else can reach port 8099.
+
+### 2. The Access application
+
+**Zero Trust → Access → Applications → Add an application → Self-hosted**:
+
+- Application domain: `ipodderx.sdf1.net`
+- Session duration: whatever suits; ipx keeps its own 30-day session on top.
+- Add a policy — *Allow*, with a rule such as `Emails` → your address, or `Emails ending in` →
+  your domain. Anyone this policy admits gets an ipx account when `auto_create_users` is on, so keep
+  the policy as narrow as the people you actually want reading your feeds.
+
+### 3. Point ipx at the header
+
+```toml
+trusted_header  = "Cf-Access-Authenticated-User-Email"
+trusted_proxies = ["127.0.0.1", "::1"]
+```
+
+The username becomes the email address, lower-cased (`ray@example.com`). That is what shows in the
+sidebar and what `ipx user list` prints.
+
+### 4. Check it
+
+```sh
+# From the box itself: no header, no session -> the sign-in page.
+curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code} %{redirect_url}\n' -H 'Accept: text/html' http://127.0.0.1:8099/
+
+# Pretending to be the tunnel (only works because 127.0.0.1 is trusted):
+curl -s -H 'Cf-Access-Authenticated-User-Email: you@example.com' http://127.0.0.1:8099/api/me
+```
+
+Then load `https://ipodderx.sdf1.net` in a browser: Cloudflare should ask who you are, and ipx
+should show your address in the sidebar footer without ever asking for a password.
+
+---
+
+## Authentik
+
+Authentik does this with a **Proxy Provider** plus an **outpost**, which sits in the request path and
+adds `X-authentik-username` (also `X-authentik-email`, `X-authentik-name`, `X-authentik-groups`).
+
+### 1. Provider
+
+**Applications → Providers → Create → Proxy Provider**:
+
+- Name: `ipx`
+- Authorization flow: your usual (`default-provider-authorization-implicit-consent`)
+- Mode: **Forward auth (single application)** if an existing reverse proxy fronts ipx, or
+  **Proxy** to let the outpost talk to ipx directly.
+- External host: `https://ipodderx.example.net`
+- Internal host (Proxy mode): `http://<ip of the ipx box>:8099`
+
+### 2. Application and outpost
+
+**Applications → Create**, bind it to that provider, and give it a policy so only the people you
+mean are let through. Then add the provider to an outpost (**Applications → Outposts**, the embedded
+one is fine).
+
+### 3. Forward auth, if you use nginx/SWAG in front
+
+In the server block for ipx:
+
+```nginx
+location /outpost.goauthentik.io {
+    proxy_pass http://authentik-server:9000/outpost.goauthentik.io;
+    proxy_set_header Host $host;
+    proxy_set_header X-Original-URL $scheme://$http_host$request_uri;
+    add_header Set-Cookie $auth_cookie;
+    auth_request_set $auth_cookie $upstream_http_set_cookie;
+}
+
+location / {
+    auth_request /outpost.goauthentik.io/auth/nginx;
+    error_page 401 = @goauthentik_proxy_signin;
+    auth_request_set $auth_cookie $upstream_http_set_cookie;
+    add_header Set-Cookie $auth_cookie;
+
+    # This is the line that matters to ipx.
+    auth_request_set $authentik_username $upstream_http_x_authentik_username;
+    proxy_set_header X-authentik-username $authentik_username;
+
+    proxy_pass http://ipx:8099;
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Point ipx at the header
+
+```toml
+trusted_header  = "X-authentik-username"
+trusted_proxies = ["172.18.0.5"]   # the outpost or nginx container, NOT a whole subnet
+```
+
+Usernames arrive as Authentik knows them (`ray`), lower-cased.
+
+---
+
+## How this is secured
+
+**The header is only believed from `trusted_proxies`.** Every other source is ignored, and the
+request falls through to a session cookie or the shared token. This is the whole security boundary,
+so:
+
+- List the **proxy's own address**, not a range. `["127.0.0.1"]` when the tunnel runs beside ipx;
+  the container's IP when it does not.
+- Never list a LAN subnet. Anyone on your network could then send
+  `Cf-Access-Authenticated-User-Email: admin@…` and be your admin.
+- Make sure the origin port is not reachable *around* the proxy by anyone you would not admit
+  through it. If it is, bind ipx to `127.0.0.1` and let only the proxy reach it.
+
+Verify the refusal, don't assume it — set `trusted_proxies = ["10.9.9.9"]` briefly and confirm a
+header from your machine gets a `401`:
+
+```sh
+curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' \
+  -H 'Cf-Access-Authenticated-User-Email: someone@example.com' http://127.0.0.1:8099/api/me
+```
+
+**What ipx does not do:** it does not verify Cloudflare's `Cf-Access-Jwt-Assertion` signature or
+Authentik's session. It trusts the hop. That is a deliberate trade — it keeps the configuration to
+three lines — and it is sound exactly as long as the point above holds.
+
+**Turning it off:** clear `trusted_header`. Existing proxy-only accounts stay, but nobody can sign
+in with them until they are given a password (`ipx user passwd <name>`).
+
+---
+
+## Everyday administration
+
+```sh
+ipx user list                                  # who exists, and how each one signs in
+echo -n 'secret123' | ipx user add sam         # local account, password on stdin
+ipx user add sam --no-password                 # proxy-only account, created ahead of time
+echo -n 'newsecret' | ipx user passwd sam      # change a password
+ipx user rm sam                                # remove the account
+```
+
+Set `auto_create_users = false` once everyone who should have an account has one. After that the
+proxy vouching for an unknown name is logged and refused, rather than quietly making an account.
+Pre-create people instead with `ipx user add <name> --no-password`, using exactly the name the
+header will carry (Cloudflare sends the email address, lower-cased).
+
+Scanning intervals, the disk quota, retention, the download folder and a feed's URL are
+**admin-only**: the Settings button is hidden for everyone else, and the API refuses the change even
+if the request is made by hand. Everyone controls their own keywords, auto-download, explicit
+setting and per-scan cap, along with their own read state and which feeds they see.
+
+See also [users.md](users.md) for what several people share, [configuration.md](configuration.md)
+for every `[web]` key, and [cli.md](cli.md) for the `ipx user` commands.

+# Accounts, and what several people share
+
+ipx serves any number of people from one copy of the data. The rule that decides everything else:
+**there is one file on disk per enclosure URL.** Two people subscribed to the same show cost one
+fetch, one parse and one file.
+
+## What is yours, what is everyone's
+
+| Yours alone | The same for everyone |
+|---|---|
+| Read, kept, playback position | The feed's URL |
+| Which feeds you see at all | Its download folder |
+| Keywords, auto-download, explicit, per-scan cap | When it is scanned |
+| | The file on disk |
+
+The right-hand column describes the feed and the file rather than a preference — two people wanting
+different folders would mean two copies. Those three are **admin-only**, and the API returns `403`
+for anyone else rather than merely hiding the controls.
+
+## How the scanner merges everyone's wants
+
+One fetch serves every subscriber, so the policy is a union:
+
+* an item is downloaded if **anyone** wants it — one person's keyword set matching is enough, and
+  one person with no keywords removes the filter for that feed entirely
+* auto-download is on if **anyone** has it on
+* the per-scan cap is the **largest** anyone asked for
+
+So "auto-download off" means *I don't cause downloads*, not *I never see them*. If someone else's
+subscription pulls an item, you see it listed as downloaded and can play it, because the enclosure
+is shared.
+
+## Deleting
+
+Deleting a file deletes everyone's copy. A feed with other subscribers labels the button **Delete
+for everyone** and names them in the confirmation, and the server has the last word: if anyone else
+has kept the item or not played it yet, `DELETE /api/enclosures/{id}` answers `409` with the
+reason, and only `?force=true` goes through.
+
+Retention follows the same rule: an item anyone kept keeps its file, and it counts as read only once
+every subscriber has read it.
+
+## Signing in
+
+Three ways, tried in order of how specific the claim is:
+
+1. **A proxy header** naming the user — Cloudflare Zero Trust or Authentik. Honoured only from an
+   address in `trusted_proxies`. See [sso.md](sso.md).
+2. **A session cookie** from signing in at `/login`. Argon2id hashes, sessions in the database,
+   idle timeout `session_days`.
+3. **The shared `[web] token`**, which signs in as the admin — this is what the Docker healthcheck
+   and any scripts use.
+
+A database with no accounts creates **admin / ipodderx** on the next daemon start and says so in
+the log. Change it:
+
+```sh
+echo -n 'a good password' | ipx user passwd admin
+```
+
+## Adding someone
+
+```sh
+echo -n 'their password' | ipx user add sam
+```
+
+They sign in at `/login` and start with **no feeds**: subscriptions are per person. Adding a feed
+someone else already has costs nothing — no second fetch, no second copy — it just appears on their
+list with their own read state. Unsubscribing removes it from their list alone; only when the last
+subscriber leaves does the feed stop being scanned, and even then its files and history stay, so
+re-subscribing does not pull the back catalogue again.
+
+**Popular** and **Directory** sit at the top of the feed list, above your own feeds. Popular, also
+shown in the Add feed dialog, lists the ten feeds with the most subscribers on this server, you
+included. Directory lists every one of them A to Z. Your own feeds are marked Subscribed.
+It shows a title, artwork and a count, never a URL or who reads it. Feeds from an
+OPML subscription are left out, since they come with the OPML. So is anything that looks private: a
+login configured for the feed, credentials in its URL, or a key such as `auth=` or `token=` in the
+query, or a feed from a paid-feed service such as Patreon or Supercast, which put the key in the
+path. Those are someone's paid subscriptions, and listing them would let anyone here read what they
+pay for.
+
+An admin can do the same from **Settings → Manage users…**: add someone (with a password, or none
+for someone the proxy signs in), tick or untick Admin, or remove an account. Removing one takes its
+subscriptions and read state with it; downloaded files stay. The only admin cannot be demoted or
+removed there, so there is always someone who can manage the rest.
+
+## Admin
+
+The first account is an admin. An admin can change global settings (scanning interval, quota,
+retention, media types, download folder), a feed's URL, folder and schedule, and who has an account
+and who else is an admin, and read the log, which names everyone's feeds and sign-ins. Everyone else
+gets the Settings and Log buttons hidden and a `403` if they ask anyway.
+
+```sh
+ipx user list      # the admin column says who
+```
