Offline mode (#389) kept lists, text and pictures, but the worker let
every /media/ request pass, so no episode played without a connection.
A downloaded episode's files pane has a keep button beside Play. It
fetches the copy that person plays, the file or, when DeadAir cuts
something for them, the version without its dead air (/media/{id}/deadair,
the save button's), whole into a cache of its own, ipx-episodes, and
asks once for persistent storage. A kept episode plays as
/media/...?offline, online or not, and the worker answers that from the
cache with the byte ranges an audio element asks for (206, 416, 200);
not kept there, it goes to the server as before. Pressing it again takes
it off; signing out clears it with everything else. Only someone's
choice is kept, so there is no budget: a full device is the quota's
refusal, said in words. The button is data-a="offline", not "keep",
which the Directory's show page already uses for subscribing.
Places saved from DeadAir's version were read in its clock only if ipx
had handed out that file's playlist since it started (state.playing). A
kept copy plays without one, so the player now names the file in the
position it saves (deadair: <enclosure>) whenever it plays DeadAir's
clock, and ipx loads that file's plan when it has none, for that item's
file only. Checked the beacon is queued by the worker offline: it is.
Tests: playing a kept episode offline, its place queued and sent once
back, and taking it off (the offline show plays quiet.mp3, the only real
MP3 among the fixtures); the worker's ranges; which copy is kept and
played, in page-unit; the server reading a flagged place in DeadAir's
clock without a playlist, and ignoring another item's file. The files
pane's one-row test counts five buttons and checks a phone's width too.

The Directory (#405): a search nothing matches says so and shows no
tiles; a show's page draws what the directory says of it, so with a
long description More opens it and Less closes it, a failing feed says
why, its latest items are listed, someone who is not the directory's
admin is offered neither Refresh nor Remove, and Subscribe there says
so and opens the feed. Search, Back, Subscribe from a tile and an
admin's Refresh and Remove were already tested.
The page (#406), on a fixture show of four linked episodes: a
schedule's bar tapped lights that many of the newest; Download latest
3 queues three and they download; v opens the item's own page;
Unsubscribe from the feed's dialog leaves no feed open. Shift J and K
move between feeds, Right and Left open and close a folder from the
keyboard, r takes the lists again. The player keeps its speed and
volume across a reload, reports a stall of over half a second to the
server's log, and marks an item played to its end read.

events.ts's handlers for a download in progress, finished and failed,
and for Signals' new hits, ran in no test. The fixture server has a
show to download from by hand: one episode sent over two seconds and
one that always fails, added with a word nothing has so that nothing
downloads on its own. Downloading the slow one fills its bar, the count
line says how far, the toast names the file and the row shows it
downloaded; another person with a page open, not subscribed, hears of
none of it (#294). The broken one says which item failed and what to
do (#304), and its bar stops. A Signal open on its page shows its new
hits and its count as soon as a pass picks them out, without a reload;
its folder is opened from the keyboard.

The page and the service worker were strict TypeScript; the tests, the
build, the home page's generator, the load tests, boot.js and the
directory's site.js were plain JavaScript that nothing checked. All of
it is TypeScript now, in five programs, each with its own globals, all
checked by npm run typecheck: the page (tsconfig.json, with boot.ts and
the directory's site.ts), the worker, Node's (tsconfig.tools.json: the
Node tests, the browser suite, the build, the site generator, the load
harness), and k6's (tsconfig.k6.json, with @types/k6).
Node 24 runs the .ts files by stripping their types, so they hold only
TypeScript that erases (erasableSyntaxOnly) and import each other by
.ts name; package.json says "type": "module" for it, and Dockerfile.web
moves to Node 24 to run build.mts. k6 2.3 strips its scripts' types
itself.
The browser suite's page.evaluate calls reach the page's globals; the
page's tsc run now also writes its declarations to target/page-types,
which the suite's program includes, so those calls are typed by the
page's own code rather than by hand-written copies.
boot.ts is compiled by build.mts with swc, as the worker is, and named
by the hash of what is served. The directory's build has no Node, so
site.js is compiled from site.ts and committed (node web/build.mts
--directory-script), and tests/directory-script.ts fails if they drift.
Checked: the site generator's 139 pages are byte for byte what the
JavaScript made; the page build's app.js is identical and only boot.js
(now minified) and its hash differ; contrast, page-smoke, page-unit,
native-bridge, the browser suite (96 passed, 2 skipped) and the
directory's and ipx's Rust tests pass; k6 parses each load script. The
load tests themselves did not run: they build a release binary outside
the capped builder. .agents/skills/security-audit is an installed
skill's, not ours, and is left as it is.

Nothing measured what the tests reach. scripts/coverage.sh runs the
cargo tests under cargo-llvm-cov in the ipx-coverage image
(Dockerfile.coverage, built by build-image.sh coverage), in a container
held to the image builder's 6 GB and six threads, one crate at a time,
with the same room and load checks: an instrumented build rebuilds every
dependency, the kind of build that took Tower down on 2026-11-04. The
first run stayed under load 8 with 11 GB free; 69% of lines. web.rs and
daemon.rs read low because the browser suite drives them against a
daemon that is not instrumented.
npm run coverage:page runs the browser suite on a build of the page
(IPX_COVERAGE=1) whose script keeps a source map to each web/src file:
web/concat-map.mts maps the joined files line by line and swc takes it
as its input map. Each test's page records V8's coverage
(tests/ui/coverage.ts, which the specs now take test and expect from),
and monocart-coverage-reports writes it file by file: 73% of lines.
build.mjs requires the map helper only for that build, since
Dockerfile.web's Node does not run TypeScript, and not with a top-level
await, which stopped the CommonJS tests requiring build.mjs.
The offline tests move to offline.spec.ts, in TypeScript, and stand
alone (they add their feed and set the read state they need), with what
#391 found untested: another account signing in clears what was kept, a
position saved offline waits and is sent, and pictures past the budget
go oldest first (keepPictures takes the budget, and trims whether or
not anything new came). The fixture JPEGs were a few bytes no browser
could draw; they are real now, and the artwork test checks one draws.
tsconfig.tools.json type-checks the tests' and build's TypeScript, in
npm run typecheck.

With no network the home-screen app showed nothing: no service worker,
and the lists the page had fetched, full text included, lived only in
its memory.
A service worker (web/sw/sw.ts, TypeScript checked against a worker's
globals by tsconfig.sw.json, built by swc to /sw.js) goes to the network
first for the page and every API read and keeps the answers, so online
nothing is an old copy and #388's version check works as before;
offline the kept copy answers. Scripts named by hash come from what is
kept. Reads, flags and places in an episode that cannot reach the
server wait in an outbox, sent in order when the connection is back
(and new ones queue behind them meanwhile, so none lands out of turn);
a kept list served offline shows the reads waiting there.
Pictures: a worker cannot keep another site's pictures sensibly, since
browsers count each opaque answer as megabytes. ipx now remembers the
picture addresses in item text it sends (bounded, in memory) and
/api/art fetches those as it does artwork, through the guarded client;
the worker keeps them, for unread items, under a 200 MB budget, and
serves them offline in place of the publisher's. Online, pictures still
come from their publisher.
Sign-out, or another account signing in on the device, clears what was
kept. The browser suite blocks the worker except in the offline tests,
since it answers before page.route can.
The fixture JPEGs are placeholders a browser cannot draw; the offline
test uses a real PNG.

A feed that sends <source:markdown> beside its HTML (Scripting News) has its
Markdown kept in entries.markdown, added to existing databases by an ALTER.
A stored item gets it when a scan finds it told differently, the Markdown
counting as a change, the way corrections arrive (#141). The API sends it as
written and made HTML, cleaned by ammonia like the description.
The item's page has a choice between its meta line and its buttons: HTML,
Markdown or Markdown source, remembered in the browser.

With signals_on_server set and TYPESAFE_KEY present, the judge asks Jev
about everyone's Signals on the server's key; otherwise each person turns
Signals on in Settings with a key of their own, which is now checked with
TypeSafe before it is saved. The Signals folder shows only when they are on.
The browser suite's daemon inherited the shell's TYPESAFE_KEY, so fixture
feeds were sent to the real TypeSafe to be categorised; it is blanked now,
and an empty key counts as none.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Jev was asked "Is this item about any of these: ai, development, programming?", so any one broad
word was enough and the Signal's name, which says what is meant, was never sent. AI Development
held 54 items: Sega pulling a game remaster (0.90), a Surface Laptop review (0.95), a C++ tutorial
(0.99). It is now asked about one subject, called by the Signal's name, described by its words
and, when those are not enough, its owner's sentence. Scored against TypeSafe over those 54 with
"AI tools for writing software: coding agents, AI dev tools, vibe coding, AI in code review.":
5 stay, Linux kernel AI code review highest at 0.94; the remaster 0.06, the C++ tutorial 0.02.
signals.description is new, and its first start deletes every verdict, which answered the old
question, so everything in the window is asked again. Any change to a Signal's name, words or
sentence drops its verdicts, since each is part of the question. The queue query names the
Signal's sentence apart from the item's description, which share a row; the test caught the
item's winning.

Every call was refused with 422: a noul question's `criteria` is an object of what true and false
mean, and it was sent a sentence. The error kept only the status, from error_for_status, so the log
and the trace said 422 and not why; TypeSafe's body said "Input should be a valid dictionary"
at questions.3.noul.criteria. The body is now in the error and on the jev span, with the status.
A request refused as malformed (400, 422) ends the pass, since every other item's would be refused
the same way: the 50 warnings a pass were the same failure 50 times. The state is text now, as
TypeSafe's docs show it, rather than an object that sent null for a feed with no title, and the
questions are keyed signal_<id>. Checked against TypeSafe with the corrected request: 0.96 for an
item about the keywords, 0.02 for one that was not.

A Signal is a name and keywords. A task beside DeadAir's asks TypeSafe's Jev, on the owner's own
key, about each item of their subscribed feeds from the last 30 days and every new one: one call
an item, one noul question for each of their Signals still to hear about it, 0.5 or more a fit.
Every verdict is kept, fitting or not, in signal_verdicts, so nothing is asked twice, and new
keywords drop a Signal's verdicts to be judged afresh. A key TypeSafe refuses (401/402/403) is
passed over until its owner saves another, so a bad key is not sent the whole queue.
A Signal's items come through entries_where with an EXISTS on its hits, so filters, search, sort
and read state are an ordinary list's, and reading an item in a Signal reads it in its feed.
The page shows Signals under the places, with New signal, and Settings takes the TypeSafe key,
which is never sent back. The browser suite stubs Jev in the fixture server (IPX_TYPESAFE_URL).

A DeadAir switch in each show's settings, and the same switch beside
the speed for the show that is playing, drawn as a waveform with its gap
closed up, outlined when off and solid when on, with aria-pressed. A
file the server gives a copy for plays from /media/{id}/deadair. An
episode's line says how much shorter it is, and Settings says how much
DeadAir has saved you.
Turning it on or off mid-episode saves the place with a request it waits
for, not a beacon, then asks for the entry again from the new
GET /api/entries/{feed}/{guid}, whose position is in the clock of the
version it now plays, and carries on there. A copy not made yet plays
from the next time. Turning a show on wakes the copy maker, so the copy
is there in seconds rather than at its next pass.
The browser test plays a real MP3 with long silences, quiet.mp3, from a
show it adds and removes itself.

`docker exec iPX ipx rm make` printed "removed make" and took it out of the catalogue table, but
the web UI went on listing it. add, rm and import run in a process of their own and write the
whole catalogue there; the daemon kept its own copy in memory, and its next change of its own --
an admin's edit, a feed categorised (#117), a moved feed followed (#115) -- wrote the removed
feed back and dropped any the command line had added.
A new socket command, reload, has the daemon read the catalogue and settings again from the
database. The socket answers it at once, as it answers status, with the counts after it: queued
behind a scan, the web UI could write the old copy back in the meantime. add, rm and import send
it when a daemon is live, and say so if it does not answer. User commands need nothing: the
daemon reads accounts from the database on every request.
A browser test runs the real `ipx add --list` and `ipx rm` against the test daemon, with an
admin's edit after each, and fails without this.

The page loaded artwork from each publisher's server, or through /api/art, fetched every time,
for http-only hosts. Nothing was kept, every visit asked every publisher, and artwork went when
a publisher's server did.
- The page draws every image a feed or item names from /api/art. The first time, iPX fetches
it (only an address a feed or item names, only an image, up to 5 MB, within the feed timeout)
and keeps it in art/ beside the database, under a hash of its address with its type beside
it (src/art.rs). Later it comes from disk, which marks it as used.
- art_cache_mb, a server setting on the admin page, 500 by default, caps what is kept: the
sweep before each scan drops the least recently shown until it fits. 0 keeps nothing, and
artwork is fetched through iPX each time. Settings saved before it get the default.
- Served from iPX's own address, someone else's image must stay an image: nosniff, and a CSP
with sandbox, so an SVG opened on its own runs no script as iPX.
- The fixture server sends .jpg as image/jpeg, which /api/art requires.

Adding an address looked for the feed a web page links and, finding none, added the address
as it was: every check then failed, and the sidebar called it a feed that had moved. cnn.com
is one; its page links no feed. find_feed replaces feed_behind_page: the address is added if
it is a feed or an OPML list, the feed its page links if it is a web page that links one (and
that is a feed), and otherwise the add is refused with the reason, from the web page (400, the
dialog stays open) and from `ipx add`.

Feeds take their channel's first <itunes:category> into a new feeds.category
column; the migration drops ETag and Last-Modified once so every feed re-reads
on its normal schedule and picks one up. /api/popular and /api/directory carry
category and podcast (any audio or video enclosure). Directory becomes a grid of
cover-art tiles under a chip rail: All, Podcasts, Blogs, and a podcast's
categories once Podcasts is picked. Popular and Add a feed keep their rows.
Closes#4, closes#5, closes#6, closes#7.

- Security: feeds from Patreon, Supercast, Supporting Cast, Glow and
Memberful are never listed in Popular or the Directory. A Supercast
feed keeps its key in the URL's path, which the query check missed, so
it was being listed.
- Adding a feed queues a scan of it, and an OPML import that added feeds
scans what is due, so items show without pressing Scan.
- A file deleted to save space, or by hand, looks as if it was never
downloaded: no "reaped" chip, just the Download button. The retention
summary says "deleted".
- The feed header keeps its title and stats to one line each and wraps
its buttons; a single feed's table drops the Feed column.
- Tests: adding a feed shows its item without Scan; a deleted file shows
no "reaped"; paid-feed hosts and acast public ids in the unit test.

- Add feed lists what other accounts subscribe to, most subscribers
first, and subscribes you by id (GET /api/popular, POST
/api/popular/{id}). Rows never carry a URL. Feeds from an OPML and
anything that looks private (a login, credentials in the URL, a key
such as auth= or token=) are never listed, and the subscribe route
checks the id against the same list.
- CHANGELOG.md follows Keep a Changelog 1.1.0: 0.1.0 (2026-09-09, the
CLI), 0.2.0 (2026-09-10, the web UI), 0.3.0 (2026-09-11, accounts and

- The import screen has a file picker beside the paste box. The page
reads the file, checks it looks like OPML before sending, and clears
the picker when it is refused and after it is imported. The file is
sent as text and never written to disk on the server.
- The server parses the OPML before touching anything and answers 400
"that is not an OPML file" (was a 500). subscribe_opml takes a parsed
document, so ipx import also refuses a non-OPML file by name.
- Tests: Settings' Export OPML download and paste import; uploading an
RSS file (refused) and a real OPML; the server's 400; the admin's
export round-tripped into a second account; ipx import/export in a

The rss crate keeps at most one enclosure per item and, when a feed ships
several, silently keeps the last -- so a two-file item lost its first
file. enclosures_by_item reads them from the XML in document order,
unescaping attributes so a URL's & survives. The row summarises the
one you would act on and counts the rest; the pane below lists them all.
Non-media enclosures gain a View link opening in a new tab: the
publisher's URL, or the local copy once downloaded. A direct link, not a
proxy, so the daemon does not become a fetch-anything relay.

The media-type filter stopped new image enclosures being fetched, but ones
already on disk still got a play button and an <audio> element, because
the UI tested for a path rather than for a playable type. Four places did
this, including play() itself, which picked the first downloaded enclosure
whatever it was.
isPlayable() checks audio/* or video/*, falling back to the extension when
a feed declares no type. A downloaded non-media file now shows as its kind
with Save and Delete, so it stays available without posing as an episode.

The log view splits into All / Daemon I/O / Scans / HTTP. Daemon I/O is
the control protocol itself, logged where every command funnels through
so it covers socket clients, the CLI and the web UI alike. stderr and the
in-app buffer now have separate filters, so the UI can keep debug detail
the terminal should not carry.
Playwright drives a real browser against a daemon on fixture feeds. Eight
tests, each mapping to a bug that reached a user -- the Rust tests and the
stub-DOM smoke test cannot see a wrong selector or a dead handler.
It immediately found one: OPML folders rendered expanded by default,
because the code stored closed groups, so any folder never toggled counted
as open.
