+name: ipx-prod-check
+description: Look for problems in production ipx (the ipx-web, iPX and ipx-directory containers on Tower, Tower itself and the monitoring that watches them) from their logs in Loki, their traces in Tempo and the metrics in Prometheus, and file what is found as Gitea issues. Use when asked to check on production, look for issues or errors in ipx, see why something is slow or failing in production, review the logs, or investigate a report about the live site.
+---
+
+# Checking production ipx
+
+Production is three containers in the Arcane project `ipx` on Tower
+(`/mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml`), one request passing through them in this order:
+
+| container | what | logs, in Loki | traces, in Tempo | metrics, in Prometheus |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `ipx-web` | Caddy: serves the page, passes `/api` and `/media` to ipx (#203). Port 8099, the LAN and the tunnel | `{container="ipx-web"}`, JSON: a line a request (`http.log.access`), its own errors | service `ipx-web`: a span a request, passing `traceparent` on to ipx (#213) | none |
+| `iPX` | the daemon: API, scans, downloads, DeadAir | `{container="iPX"}`, JSON (`IPX_LOG_FORMAT=json`) | service `ipx`; passes `traceparent` to the directory | `job="ipx"`, its `/metrics` |
+| `ipx-directory` | the directory of public podcasts, `directory.ipxreader.app` (#204, #214) | `{container="ipx-directory"}`, JSON (`DIRECTORY_LOG_FORMAT=json`) | service `ipx-directory`: a span a request, joining ipx's trace when ipx called; a trace a refresher round (#213) | none |
+
+Under them, Tower itself: `job="node"` (the node exporter: load, CPU, memory, disks). The Grafana
+dashboard `iPX` draws all of it in that order (`grafana/dashboard.py`). A trace without the
+production tag (`resource.deployment.environment.name="production"`, on all three) is a daemon run
+by hand, not production. Since #213 a request is one trace across the services it touched: a
+Directory page is ipx-web, then ipx, then the directory, so start from the trace, not the logs. Alloy ships the logs; Loki, Tempo and
+Prometheus publish no query port to this machine, so use the script beside this file:
+
+```sh
+Q=.claude/skills/ipx-prod-check/query.py
+$Q logs    '<LogQL>'           [since]   # lines, newest first (500 at most)
+$Q metric  '<LogQL metric>'    [since]   # $range becomes `since`
+$Q traces  '<TraceQL>'         [since]   # slowest first
+$Q spans   '<TraceQL>'          [since]   # the matching spans, each with its own time, slowest first
+$Q trace   <trace id>                    # one trace as a tree, with its log lines
+$Q prom    '<PromQL>'          [since]   # Prometheus, now; $range becomes `since`
+$Q flame   '<TraceQL>'  [since] [out.svg] # where the matching spans' time went, summed over up to
+                                         # 100 traces: a flame graph, and out.svg.folded for speedscope
+```
+
+`since` is `30m`, `1h`, `24h`, `7d`. Default to `24h`; widen it to see whether something is new.
+"Since the last deploy" is since that container started (each deploys on its own):
+
+```sh
+for c in iPX ipx-web ipx-directory; do S=$(docker inspect $c -f '{{.State.StartedAt}}'); echo "$c $(( ($(date +%s) - $(date -d "$S" +%s)) / 60 + 1 ))m"; done
+```
+
+Start every check by seeing that all three run, since Loki cannot see a container that is not:
+
+```sh
+docker ps -a --filter name=iPX --filter name=ipx-web --filter name=ipx-directory --format '{{.Names}} {{.Status}}'
+```
+
+All three should be `Up`, with no recent restart; they have no Docker healthcheck (#218). Then work through ipx (the checks below), the page, the
+directory, Tower and the monitoring itself, in that order.
+
+## ipx
+
+### What the log carries
+
+Every line has `timestamp`, `level`, `message` and `target`; lines inside a span have `span` (the
+innermost: `{"name":"feed","feed":"x"}`). Loki's `| json` flattens it to `span_name`, `span_feed`.
+Lines inside a traced span, requests and scans, also carry `trace_id` and `span_id`: give the
+`trace_id` to `$Q trace` to see the whole request or scan. (From 2026-09-29 16:30 UTC; before that,
+lines had no trace id, the access log's time was `ms`, and each event was logged twice, words under
+`ipx::scan` and fields under `ipx::io`.)
+
+| target | fields | what |
+|---|---|---|
+| `ipx::http` | `method`, `path`, `route`, `status`, `duration_ms` | one per web request; `route` is the pattern, empty for an unrouted path |
+| `ipx::scan` | `ev` and the event's own: `feed`, `new`, `downloaded`, `failed`, `bytes`, `msg`, `url`, `feeds`, `reason`, `from`, `to`; on a failure `error.type` and, from an HTTP error, `http.response.status_code` | the daemon's events, one line each, in words; warnings are feed and download failures |
+| `ipx::io` | `ev`, `feeds`, `pending`, `downloaded` on the `status` reply | commands arriving (`-> {...}`) and the healthcheck's answer |
+| `ipx` | message, sometimes fields | start-up, shutdown, account and config messages |
+| `ipx::client` | `ev`, `user`, `feed`, `enclosure`, `deadair`; `msg`, `src`, `line` on an error; `ms` on a timing | what the page reports from the browser (#190): `page_error`, `rejection` and `player_error` as warnings; `play_start` (ms from play to sound), `stall` (ms waiting mid-play) and `list_shown` (ms from a click to its list drawn, with `feed` the view and `filter`, #246) as info. Lines carry the trace of the action in the page: its API requests send `traceparent`, one trace id per tap or key |
+
+Events (`ev`): `feed_start`, `feed_done` (new, downloaded, failed, torrents), `feed_skip` (not due,
+routine), `feed_error` (msg), `feed_moved` (from, to: a permanent redirect followed, the address
+updated), `download_done` (bytes), `download_error` (msg, url),
+`torrent_deferred`, `reaped`, `scan_done` (feeds checked), `reap_done`, `status` (feeds, pending,
+downloaded: the healthcheck's, every 30s), `deadair_done` (feed, enclosure, `saved_s` at the
+default pause), `error` (msg). DeadAir also logs `DeadAir found the silences` (`cuts`, `saved_s`,
+`took_ms`) under `ipx::deadair`, and warns `DeadAir could not read a file` when ffmpeg fails on
+one, which it then passes over until the next restart.
+
+`error.type` is the HTTP status (`404`, `503`) or one of `dns`, `redirect_loop`, `timeout`, `tls`,
+`not_a_feed`, `site_message`, `connect`, `parse`, `other`; Loki's `| json` names it `error_type`.
+
+Filter on the text before `| json` where you can (`|= "\"ev\":\"feed_error\""`): it is much
+cheaper than parsing every line. Lines before 2026-09-29 14:00 UTC are text, not JSON, and
+`| json | __error__=""` drops them.
+
+### What Prometheus carries
+
+The daemon's own state between requests, which no log line or trace holds (#194): ipx serves
+`/metrics` on `[web] metrics_bind` (production: `192.168.1.130:9187`, LAN only), on a thread and
+port of its own, from memory alone, and Prometheus scrapes it every 15 s as `job="ipx"`. Kept
+from 2026-10-11 15:15 UTC. All gauges:
+
+| metric | what |
+|---|---|
+| `ipx_db_connections{state="in_use"\|"idle"}`, `ipx_db_connections_max` | the database pool: in use reaching the max means requests and scans wait for a connection |
+| `ipx_worker_queue` | commands waiting for the sequential worker (scans, downloads, adds) |
+| `ipx_event_listeners` | open pages and socket clients on the live-update stream |
+| `ipx_torrent_slots_free` | of 2 |
+| `ipx_deadair_playing` | episodes being played through DeadAir's playlist |
+| `ipx_runtime_workers`, `ipx_runtime_tasks`, `ipx_runtime_queue` | tokio: threads, live tasks, tasks waiting for a thread |
+| `ipx_process_resident_bytes`, `ipx_process_open_fds` | memory and open files and sockets; mimalloc gives back what is freed, so memory follows use and a rise that never comes down is a leak (#224) |
+| `ipx_feed_fetches_total`, `ipx_feed_bytes_total` | counters: feeds fetched (304s included) and the bytes of their bodies, read whole, so what scans allocate |
+| `ipx_uptime_seconds`, `ipx_build_info{version}` | since the daemon started; what runs |
+| `ipx_worker_busy`, `ipx_worker_job_seconds{kind}` | the worker's job now (`scan`, `reap`, `download`, `status`, `reload`) and for how long; the healthcheck passes while it is stuck |
+| `ipx_jobs_total{kind}`, `ipx_job_seconds_total{kind}` | counters: jobs finished, and their seconds all told |
+| `ipx_last_scan_age_seconds` | since a scan last finished; absent until one has since starting |
+| `ipx_http_requests_in_flight`, `ipx_scan_feeds_fetching`, `ipx_downloads_active` | work in progress |
+| `ipx_download_bytes_total` | counter; `rate()` is the download speed |
+| `ipx_event_queue`, `ipx_events_missed_total` | live updates unread by some listener; counter of those dropped for one that fell behind |
+| `ipx_deadair_backlog`, `ipx_deadair_busy_seconds` | files of shows with DeadAir on not yet looked at (episodes everyone heard through stay counted); how long it has been on its file |
+| `ipx_feed_retries` | feeds waiting to retry a failed name lookup |
+| `ipx_art_cache_bytes`, `ipx_art_cache_limit_bytes` | artwork kept, as of the last sweep, and the most kept: kept sits at the limit by design |
+| `ipx_art_evicted_total`, `ipx_art_requests_total{result="hit"\|"miss"}` | counters: images the sweep threw out to stay under the limit, and artwork served from disk or fetched from the publisher; many evicted at every sweep with a falling hit rate means the limit is too small |
+| `ipx_signals_judged_total{user,key}`, `ipx_signals_hits_total{user,key}` | counters: items Jev judged for Signals, and Signals they fit, by person and whose key paid (`server` or `own`, #278) (#254) |
+| `ipx_jev_requests_total{result="ok"\|"key_refused"\|"malformed"\|"rate_limited"\|"error"}`, `ipx_jev_seconds_total`, `ipx_jev_paced_seconds_total` | counters: calls to TypeSafe's Jev, Signals' and icons', by how they ended; their seconds, the wait for a turn included; and that wait alone. `malformed` is ipx's request at fault (#257); `rate_limited` is a 429 from TypeSafe, whose limits are 80 calls and 100,000 input tokens a second, which ipx paces itself under at 60 and 80,000 (#277) |
+| `ipx_jev_tokens_total{kind="input"\|"output",user,key}` | counter: tokens TypeSafe counted, as its answers say, by person and whose key paid: what Signals, icon picks and key checks cost (#275, #278). A call shared on the server's key is split by each person's share of its questions |
+| `ipx_signals_last_pass_age_seconds`, `ipx_signals_keys_refused` | since the Signals judge last finished a pass (at most 5 minutes when well; absent until one has); people whose key TypeSafe refused |
+| `directory_process_resident_bytes`, `directory_process_open_fds`, `directory_feed_fetches_total`, `directory_feed_bytes_total`, `directory_uptime_seconds`, `directory_build_info` | the directory's, `job="ipx-directory"`, from its `metrics_bind` (production `192.168.1.130:9188`, LAN only) |
+| `ipx_feeds`, `ipx_downloads_pending`, `ipx_files_downloaded` | the library, as the healthcheck last counted it (every 30 s) |
+
+### The checks
+
+Run these, then read the lines behind whatever stands out. Most of the time is in the reading:
+a count says something happened, the lines and traces say why.
+
+1. **Warnings and errors, grouped.** What went wrong, how often, and since when.
+   ```
+   $Q metric 'sum by (target, message) (count_over_time({container="iPX"} | json | __error__="" | level=~"WARN|ERROR" [$range]))'
+   ```
+   Feed and download failures name the feed in the message; group them in the next check instead.
+2. **Failing feeds and downloads.**
+   ```
+   $Q metric 'sum by (feed, error_type) (count_over_time({container="iPX"} |= "\"ev\":\"feed_error\"" | json | __error__="" [$range]))' 7d
+   $Q metric 'sum by (feed, error_type) (count_over_time({container="iPX"} |= "\"ev\":\"download_error\"" | json | __error__="" [$range]))' 7d
+   ```
+   Tell the publisher's problems from ipx's. A 404, 410, DNS failure or 503 from the feed's own
+   server is the publisher (worth saying, since the feed may have moved; one issue for a feed
+   that has been dead for days, not for a 503 once). A parse error on a feed that loads in a
+   browser, a redirect loop ipx should follow, or the same failure on many feeds at once is ipx.
+3. **Server errors and slow requests.**
+   ```
+   $Q metric 'sum by (method, route, status) (count_over_time({container="iPX"} |= "\"target\":\"ipx::http\"" | json | __error__="" | status >= 500 [$range]))'
+   $Q metric 'topk(10, quantile_over_time(0.95, {container="iPX"} |= "\"target\":\"ipx::http\"" | json | __error__="" | route != "" | route != "/api/events" | unwrap duration_ms [$range]) by (method, route))'
+   ```
+   Any 5xx is worth a look. 401s are people signing in, not a problem unless one address is
+   hammering. For a slow route, find its traces (check 5) and see which span holds the time.
+4. **Is the worker keeping up?** Scans should finish regularly, the queue should drain, and the
+   daemon should not be restarting on its own.
+   ```
+   $Q metric 'sum(count_over_time({container="iPX"} |= "\"ev\":\"scan_done\"" [$range]))' 6h
+   $Q logs '{container="iPX"} |= "\"ev\":\"status\"" | json | line_format "{{.timestamp}} pending={{.pending}} downloaded={{.downloaded}}"' 6h
+   $Q logs '{container="iPX"} |= "daemon started"' 7d
+   ```
+   A `daemon started` not matched by a deploy (see `git log` and the image's build time) is a
+   crash or an OOM kill: check `docker inspect iPX -f '{{.State.OOMKilled}} {{.RestartCount}}'`
+   and the lines just before it. A pending count that only grows means downloads are not
+   keeping up or not running.
+
+   Since 2026-10-02 the daemon sleeps until the next feed is due (at most 10 minutes) instead of
+   scanning every minute (#114), so expect tens of scans in 6 hours, not 360, nearly all with
+   `feeds` above 0; none at all for over 10 minutes means the worker is stuck. And `pending` is
+   the real queue (#113): files a scan will download on its own. Back-catalogue files are
+   `held`, listed but not counted, so it is usually 0 or a handful.
+5. **Slow and failed traces.** Look at ipx's requests as spans, not traces: a trace started by a
+   tap in the page also holds that page's live updates and any audio it streamed, minutes long,
+   so a list of traces over a few seconds is nothing but those. `spans` lists each matching span
+   with its own time and route, slowest first:
+   ```
+   R='resource.deployment.environment.name="production" && resource.service.name="ipx"'
+   $Q spans "{$R && span.http.route != \"\" && span.http.route != \"/api/events\" && span.http.route !~ \"/media/.*\" && duration > 1s} | select(span.http.route)"
+   $Q spans "{$R && name=\"step\" && duration > 500ms} | select(span.of)"
+   $Q traces '{resource.deployment.environment.name="production" && status = error}'
+   $Q trace <id>
+   ```
+   Group the first by hour and by route (`awk '{print substr($3,1,2), $NF}' | sort | uniq -c`),
+   then lay the hours beside Tower's (the Tower section): load over 100 with processes blocked
+   and memory under 4 GB is the host stalling, and every request of those minutes is slow with
+   it, ipx's queries included. On 2026-10-18 that was 120 of 130 requests over a second, up to 43 s.
+   What is left at quiet hours is ipx's own: open its trace and see which step holds the time. A
+   request far longer than its steps added up waited outside them, for a connection or a thread.
+   The second line finds steps over half a second wherever they ran; a step slow only once, first
+   thing after hours idle, is Postgres reading from disk what it no longer had in memory (All
+   Subscriptions' `entries_in`, a second where it is 60 ms warm).
+
+   Scans (`scan`) are long by nature, since they fetch many feeds one after another: look for one
+   `feed` or `fetch` span holding most of it (`$Q spans '{... && name="feed" && duration > 10s}'`),
+   or a `download` far slower than its size explains.
+
+   Steps are `step` spans named by `of` (#187): an item list's `entries_in` (with the list asked for: `filter`, `sort`, `dir`, `offset`, `limit`, `search`), `sanitize`,
+   `deadair`, `count_in`; the feed list's `catalogue`, `feed_list` and its queries; a `reap`'s
+   `missing_files`, `prune_abandoned_failures`, `reap_candidates`, `clean_directory` (once a day
+   since #193, so a reap is about a second), `trim_artwork`, with what it removed on the `reap`
+   span. DeadAir's work on a file is a `deadair` trace (feed, enclosure, cuts) with `probe`,
+   `silencedetect`, `frame_bytes`, `store_plans`: seconds each, more is a file ffmpeg struggles
+   with. A trace with no name in `$Q traces` started in the page (#190, #192): its root is the tap
+   in the browser, which sends no span, so it holds the requests that tap made (API calls, the
+   playlist and audio of a play, position saves, the page's own report) side by side.
+
+6. **The daemon's state, from Prometheus.** Pressure and leaks that requests and traces only
+   hint at.
+   ```
+   $Q prom 'up{job="ipx"}'
+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_db_connections{job="ipx",state="in_use"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_db_connections_max{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_worker_queue{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_runtime_queue{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'max(resets(ipx_uptime_seconds{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'ipx_process_resident_bytes{job="ipx"} - ipx_process_resident_bytes{job="ipx"} offset $range' 24h
+   $Q prom 'ipx_process_open_fds{job="ipx"} - ipx_process_open_fds{job="ipx"} offset $range' 24h
+   $Q prom 'ipx_runtime_tasks{job="ipx"} - ipx_runtime_tasks{job="ipx"} offset $range' 24h

+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_last_scan_age_seconds{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'sum by (kind) (increase(ipx_job_seconds_total{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_http_requests_in_flight{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'sum(increase(ipx_events_missed_total{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_deadair_busy_seconds{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'sum by (result) (increase(ipx_jev_requests_total{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   $Q prom 'max(max_over_time(ipx_signals_last_pass_age_seconds{job="ipx"}[$range]))' 24h
+   ```
+   `up` 0 means Prometheus cannot reach the port: the container is down or `metrics_bind` is
+   unset. The daemon keeps all 20 connections open on Postgres (#241), so `idle` is the pool's 20 less
+   those in use; in use at 20, idle at 0, means something is waiting for one: find the slow requests or scan of that time in check 3 and 5. A worker queue that only
+   grows means downloads are not keeping up, or the worker is stuck on one job. A runtime queue
+   above 0 for more than a scrape or two means every thread is busy: something is blocking a
+   thread or burning one. Memory, open files or tasks only climbing across a day with no restart
+   is a leak (a file or socket not closed, a task never ending); a step after a deploy is not. A
+   reset of the uptime is a restart: match it with a deploy, or it is a crash (check 4).
+
+   The worker: one job over 30 minutes (`ipx_worker_job_seconds`), or a scan last finished over
+   15 minutes ago, is the worker stuck, which the healthcheck does not notice; its trace and the
+   log lines of that time say on what. A kind whose share of `ipx_job_seconds_total` jumps is
+   where the worker's time went (reap was most of it until #193). Web requests in flight near
+   the pool's max mean the pool is what they wait on. Live updates missed mean a page showed stale
+   counts until reloaded. DeadAir over a minute on one file is a file ffmpeg chokes on.
+   Any `rate_limited` Jev call means the pacing is not holding ipx under TypeSafe's limits (#277); each
+   `jev` span has `paced_ms`, its wait for a turn. Any `malformed` Jev call is ipx asking wrongly (#257); `key_refused` is someone's key; the Signals
+   judge over 10 minutes since a pass is stuck on Jev: its `signals` trace shows which `jev` call.
+
+7. **What the page saw.** The browser's own errors and timings, which no server line shows.
+   ```
+   $Q metric 'sum by (ev, msg) (count_over_time({container="iPX"} |= "\"target\":\"ipx::client\"" | json | __error__="" | level="WARN" [$range]))' 7d
+   $Q logs '{container="iPX"} |= "\"target\":\"ipx::client\"" | json | ev=~"play_start|stall" | line_format "{{.timestamp}} {{.user}} {{.ev}} {{.ms}}ms deadair={{.deadair}} {{.feed}}"' 24h
+   $Q metric 'quantile_over_time(0.95, {container="iPX"} |= "\"ev\":\"list_shown\"" | json | __error__="" | unwrap ms [$range]) by (feed, filter)' 24h
+   ```
+   A `player_error` is playback that failed in front of someone: `hls.js: ...` is DeadAir's
+   playlist (its trace has the playlist and audio requests), `media error 4` a file the browser
+   cannot play. A `page_error` or `rejection` is a bug in the page; `src` and `line` point into
+   the minified `app.js`, so match the message to `web/src`. A `list_shown` over 1000 ms is a list someone waited for: its trace says whether the API or the network held it. `play_start` over 2000 ms, or a
+   `stall`, is worth a trace: was it the server, Cloudflare, or the network.
+
+`docker logs --since 10m iPX 2>&1 | tail -5` shows the newest lines when Loki is behind.
+
+## ipx-web, the page
+
+Caddy logs one JSON line a request (#210), logger `http.log.access.log0`: Loki's `| json` gives
+`request_uri`, `request_method`, `request_remote_ip`, `status`, `duration` (seconds, not ms), `size`.
+The request's headers and a `?token=` are filtered out before it is written. Requests from
+`127.0.0.1` are local checks; leave them out. `/api` and `/media` pass on to ipx and
+are in ipx's own access log too, with ipx's time; Caddy's `duration` for them adds the hop.
+
+```sh
+W='{container="ipx-web"} |= "http.log.access" | json | __error__="" | request_remote_ip != "127.0.0.1"'
+$Q metric "sum by (status) (count_over_time($W [\$range]))"
+$Q metric "sum by (request_uri) (count_over_time($W | status >= 500 [\$range]))"
+$Q metric "topk(10, quantile_over_time(0.95, $W | request_uri !~ \"/(api|media)/.*\" | unwrap duration [\$range]) by (request_uri))"
+$Q logs '{container="ipx-web"} | json | __error__="" | level=~"warn|error" | msg !~ "admin endpoint disabled|automatic HTTPS is completely disabled|HTTP/[23] skipped.*|exiting; byeee.*"'
+```
+
+A 502 is ipx not answering Caddy: a restart (match the deploy) or ipx down; Caddy's error line
+names it (`dial tcp ...:8099: connect: connection refused`). The page itself (`/`, `/admin`)
+waits on `/api/page-check` before it is sent, so a slow page is usually a slow page-check: look it
+up in ipx's access log. 401 and 303 on `/` are people signed out being sent to `/login`, not a
+problem. Caddy's own notices at each start (no admin endpoint, no HTTPS or HTTP/3, its goodbye on
+SIGTERM) are by design and filtered out above.
+
+Each access line carries the request's `traceID` (`| json` gives `traceID`): give it to `$Q trace`
+to see where the time went, Caddy's span with ipx's inside it. A slow page with ipx's span short is
+Caddy or the network; a long one is ipx.
+
+```sh
+$Q spans '{resource.service.name="ipx-web" && span.url.path != "/api/events" && span.url.path !~ "/media/.*" && duration > 2s} | select(span.url.path)'
+$Q traces '{resource.service.name="ipx-web" && status = error}'
+```
+
+Who reaches it: `request_remote_ip` is `192.168.64.1` for the tunnel and anything else on Tower
+(Docker's gateway), `192.168.1.130` for Tower itself, a LAN address for the LAN. Caddy passes
+Cloudflare Access's headers on only from `192.168.64.1` (`TUNNEL_PEER`), and ipx trusts them only
+from Caddy, with a valid signed token. Testing sign-in from Tower proves nothing about the tunnel
+(#209): send it from a container on another network.
+
+## ipx-directory
+
+It logs a line a request (`target` `ipx_directory::http`: `method`, `path`, `status`,
+`duration_ms`, `token`, the token's name and never the token), a line a snapshot (`message`
+`snapshot`: `instance`, `accepted`, `refused_private`, `refused_blocked`, `refused_invalid`), a
+line a refresher round (`feeds checked`: `checked`), a line a failed feed check (`feed check
+failed`: `feed`, the directory's id, and `error`), the admin's actions (`feed removed and
+blocked`, `feed unblocked`, `snapshot dropped`, each with `by`), and `config read again` when its
+token file changes. It has no metrics. Its traces (#213): a span a request (`http`), a child of
+ipx's when ipx called with a `traceparent`, and a trace a refresher round (`refresh`, `feeds`)
+with a `feed` span for each check. Its log lines carry no trace id; find the trace by time or by
+the feed.
+
+```sh
+$Q traces '{resource.service.name="ipx-directory" && duration > 2s}'
+$Q traces '{resource.service.name="ipx-directory" && name="feed" && duration > 10s}'
+$Q traces '{resource.service.name="ipx" && name="directory_share"}'
+```
+
+A slow Directory page in ipx is usually its `http` span in the directory: the trace says whether.
+A refresher round far over a minute is one publisher's feed holding it, the slow `feed` span.
+
+```sh
+D='{container="ipx-directory"} | json | __error__=""'
+$Q metric "sum by (status, token) (count_over_time({container=\"ipx-directory\"} |= \"ipx_directory::http\" | json | __error__=\"\" [\$range]))"
+$Q metric "topk(5, max_over_time({container=\"ipx-directory\"} |= \"ipx_directory::http\" | json | __error__=\"\" | unwrap duration_ms [\$range]) by (path))"
+$Q logs "$D | level=~\"WARN|ERROR\""
+$Q logs "$D | message=\"snapshot\"" 7d
+$Q metric "sum(count_over_time($D | message=\"snapshot\" [\$range])) by (instance)"
+$Q metric "sum by (feed, error) (count_over_time($D | message=\"feed check failed\" [\$range]))" 7d
+$Q metric "sum(sum_over_time($D | message=\"feeds checked\" | unwrap checked [\$range]))" 24h
+```
+
+Expect a snapshot from each server when what it shares changes and every half hour, so about 48 a
+day each; one every half minute is ipx resending what has not changed (#211, fixed). A burst of
+401s with an empty `token` is someone without a token trying the public address, expected now and
+then; a steady stream is worth an issue, since Cloudflare can rate-limit it. A snapshot whose
+`refused_private` is not 0 means an ipx server tried to send a feed that looks private: find which
+in that server's log, since the directory refuses it but the sender should not have sent it. Many
+`feed check failed` lines for one feed are the publisher's, not the directory's. Each feed is
+checked every twelve hours (#243), 25 at a time, so `feeds checked` over a day should be about
+twice the feeds listed; none for over twelve hours means the refresher is stuck. `could not store a feed
+check` or `could not read which feeds are due` is its database (`ipx_directory` on the
+`databases` project's Postgres). A config that does not load (`config changed but does not
+load`) keeps the old tokens: worth fixing before someone's new token is needed. Weekly, `Apple
+Podcasts synced` (`shows`, `accepted`) brings Apple's charts in as the `apple-podcasts` snapshot
+(#252); `Apple Podcasts' sync failed` retries in an hour, worth an issue when it keeps failing, and
+`Apple's podcast categories are not ipx's` (`added`, `gone`) is an issue to update `CATEGORIES` in
+`crates/feed`.
+
+## Tower
+
+The three share Tower with everything else, so a slow or failing ipx can be the host. The node
+exporter (`job="node"`) has the history; twelve threads.
+
+```sh
+$Q prom 'max_over_time(node_load1{job="node"}[$range])' 24h
+$Q prom 'min_over_time(node_memory_MemAvailable_bytes{job="node"}[$range]) / 1e9' 24h
+$Q prom 'sum by (mode) (rate(node_cpu_seconds_total{job="node", mode=~"user|system|iowait"}[$range]))' 1h
+$Q prom 'max by (device) (rate(node_disk_io_time_seconds_total{job="node", device=~"nvme.*|md.*"}[$range]))' 1h
+```
+
+For when, step back with `offset`: `max_over_time(node_load1[10m] offset 60m)`. Load far above
+twelve with little CPU busy is processes waiting, on a disk or on the user shares: on 2026-10-12
+debug builds linking through `/mnt/user` (shfs, FUSE) took load to 248 with mostly system time and
+stalled everything on the shares, ipx's downloads included. Available memory near nothing makes
+it worse. Disk busy near 100% on `nvme1n1` is `/mnt/fast`, appdata and Postgres's data; on `md*`
+the array behind `/mnt/user`, the downloads. Say what was running at the time if you can tell
+(`docker stats --no-stream`); a host problem is the user's, not an ipx issue, unless ipx caused it.
+
+## The monitoring itself
+
+A quiet dashboard can be a dead exporter. Check what Prometheus scrapes and that each
+container's lines are reaching Loki:
+
+```sh
+curl -s http://192.168.1.130:9090/api/v1/targets | python3 -c 'import json,sys
+for t in json.load(sys.stdin)["data"]["activeTargets"]: print(t["health"], t["labels"]["job"], t["scrapeUrl"], t.get("lastError","")[:80])'
+for c in iPX ipx-web ipx-directory; do echo "$c $($Q metric "sum(count_over_time({container=\"$c\"} [1h]))" 1h | tail -1)"; done
+docker ps -a --filter label=com.docker.compose.project=monitoring --format '{{.Names}} {{.Status}}'
+```
+
+`ipx` and `node` should be `up`. Every monitoring container should be running; after Docker
+restarts, one can be left `Exited (255)` though its policy is `unless-stopped` (Prometheus, on
+2026-10-12, when Docker lost its exit during an overload): `docker start` it and say so. blocky
+and nut on 192.168.2.21 are another machine, not ipx's; leave them. A container with no lines in
+an hour while it runs means Alloy is not shipping it; Alloy can take a few minutes to pick up a
+container after a deploy.
+
+## Rules
+
+`docker logs` and `docker exec iPX ipx ...` are fine. On production's Postgres, `EXPLAIN (ANALYZE,
+BUFFERS)` of any query is allowed, read only, as CLAUDE.md's "Production's database" shows; any
+other query, ask the user first.
+
+## What to do with what you find
+
+Follow the repository's rules in CLAUDE.md: **every problem found gets a Gitea issue**, with a
+closed stdin and a timeout on `tea`. Before filing, list the open issues and do not file one
+twice; comment on the existing issue with the new evidence instead.
+
+```sh
+R="--login git.sdf1.net --repo rays/ipx"
+t() { timeout 30 /src/tea "$@" < /dev/null; }
+t issues list $R --state open
+t issues create $R -t "<what is wrong, as the user would notice it>" -L bug -d "<what, where, since when, how often, the query or trace id that shows it>"
+```
+
+Put in each issue what would let someone pick it up cold: the LogQL or TraceQL that shows it, a
+trace id, the first time it was seen and how often. A publisher's dead feed is worth one issue
+saying so (the user may want to unsubscribe or find its new address); a single 503 is not.
+
+Finish with a short report to the user, a line for each of ipx-web, ipx, the directory, Tower and
+the monitoring: what is healthy, what is wrong (with the issue numbers), and anything you could
+not tell from logs, traces and metrics alone. Do not fix things unless asked; the
+check is for finding them.
+
+## When the checks come back empty
+
+Check that there is data before concluding all is well (the monitoring section's per-container
+count): iPX should have hundreds of lines an hour or more, ipx-web at least its healthchecks'
+120, ipx-directory a few dozen. Nothing at all means Alloy is not shipping it, or the container
+is down.

-# 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).
-
-## [Unreleased]
-
-## [0.8.2] - 2026-09-19
-
-### Added
-
-- Four themes, each in light and dark: Catppuccin (Latte and Mocha), Gruvbox, Solarized, and High
-  contrast, black and white with every colour at 7:1 or more.
-
-### Changed
-
-- The themes in Settings are listed in alphabetical order.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Links in Classic, and hints and headings in Modern's dark half, are dark or light enough to
-  read comfortably. A failed-action message is easier to read in every theme.
-
-## [0.8.1] - 2026-09-19
-
-### Changed
-
-- A feed being checked shows a small spinner in place of its unread count (and its folder's),
-  instead of toasts: no more "Scanning…" or "1 new" pop-ups, and none at all for feeds you do not read. A
-  "Downloaded" toast is only for a file on your screen.
-- "Check every feed" checks every feed you subscribe to, not every feed on the server.
-- The Classic theme is listed in Settings as just "Classic".
-- Settings and the keyboard shortcuts close from an X in their top corner, not a button at the bottom.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Unread counts, the unread dot and the Gone and Error tags are readable in every theme: several
-  light themes (Flat Remix, Paper, Adwaita, Nordic, Modern) drew them below AA contrast.
-- The sign-in page follows the system's light or dark setting, and fits a phone's screen instead of
-  drawing at desktop width.
-- In Classic, a selected item's play and delete buttons are white on the blue, not grey.
-- In Nordic's dark half, button and toolbar borders show.
-- A zero unread count on the selected feed no longer disappears into the selection.
-
-## [0.8.0] - 2026-09-18
-
-### Added
-
-- ipx can keep its data in Postgres: set `IPX_DATABASE_URL` to a `postgres://` URL. Without it,
-  it is the SQLite `state.db` as before. `ipx copy-db <state.db>` moves an existing database
-  across, everything in one go.
-- The catalogue of feeds and the server settings the admin page edits are kept in the database
-  rather than config.toml, which keeps where things are, the torrent settings and who may sign
-  in. The first start takes them from config.toml and trims it, keeping the original as
-  `config.toml.pre-database`; feeds added to config.toml after that are ignored, with a warning.
-
-### Changed
-
-- The database is reached through SeaORM, which is what lets it be SQLite or Postgres; on SQLite
-  nothing you see changes. On Postgres, sorting by title or feed follows the language's order (an
-  accented letter beside the plain one) rather than raw bytes. A database from before 0.7 has to
-  be opened by a 0.7 release first, which brings its tables up to date.
-
-## [0.7.0] - 2026-09-18
-
-### Added
-
-- Six more themes in Settings: Dracula, Material, Adwaita, Flat Remix, Paper and Nordic, beside
-  Classic and Modern (the existing dark and light). Each that comes both ways has its own Light,
-  Dark or Auto setting; Classic and Paper come one way only, so that setting is hidden for them.
-  A theme chosen before this carries over.
-- Your theme is kept on your account rather than in the browser, so it follows you to another
-  browser or computer, and the page arrives in it with no flash of the default. The theme a
-  browser already had is saved to your account the first time you load the page.
-- Pin a feed to the top of the feed list with the pin on its page, a feed from inside an OPML or
-  Patreon folder included, which comes out of the folder while pinned. Pins are yours alone.
-- Touch gestures: pull the item list down from its top to check the feed for new items, and
-  swipe the item you are reading left for the next one and right for the one before, or back
-  to the list from the first.
-
-### Changed
-
-- The server's settings, the accounts and the log are on their own admin page, /admin, reached by
-  the wrench in the header. Only an admin is sent the page, its script, or the link to it.
-  Settings is now yours alone: your theme and your subscriptions.
-- A feed that fails to check gets a red exclamation mark in the feed list, in the margin where a
-  folder's triangle sits, and its page says why, in place of a pop-up per failure that everyone
-  saw during a scan of every feed. A folder holding a failing feed has its triangle turn red.
-- The theme is chosen in Settings only; the button beside the iPodderX name is gone.
-- Add a feed asks only for the feed; Popular and Directory in the sidebar are where you browse.
-- On a phone, an item's files, with play and delete, sit above its show notes rather than below
-  them, where long notes left them looking missing.
-- On a phone, an item with no files goes straight to its text, without a box saying "No files".
-- The page is served minified, about a quarter smaller. Its script is now TypeScript in
-  `web/src`, type-checked, and built with swc; building ipx needs node.
-- The script is its own file, `/app.js`, rather than inside the page. Your browser keeps it
-  between visits and fetches it again only when an update changes it.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Switching tabs straight after marking everything read no longer shows the previous tab's
-  items: of two lists asked for at once, only the later one is shown.
-- ipx has a favicon: the logo, squared up, also at /favicon.ico for browsers that ask there on
-  their own, and on white for an iPhone's home screen.
-- The file icon of an item not yet downloaded sits level with the rest of its row, instead of
-  higher than a downloaded one's.
-- Images in posts from sites that refuse images to other sites' pages, such as Jeff Geerling's,
-  now show: ipx asks for them without saying it is the page showing them.
-- While an episode plays, its play buttons in the files pane, its row and the toolbar show
-  pause, as the player bar's does, and pause it when pressed.
-- An item you open stays read. A list refresh that crossed with marking it read could put its
-  unread dot back until the next refresh.
-- On the Unread tab, the item you were reading leaves the list as soon as you move to the next
-  one, rather than a few read items lingering until a refresh cleared them.
-- The Log button no longer shows for a moment on every load for anyone but an admin; the server
-  leaves it out of their page.
-- An image or link in a post given relative to the post, such as The Observation Deck's, now
-  points at the post's site rather than at ipx, and shows.
-
-## [0.6.1] - 2026-09-15
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Time left, and when an episode counts as finished, go by the length your player measured
-  rather than the feed's, which can be minutes out: one episode said 0:08 left with 2:33 to play.
-- A player left open in another tab or on another device no longer saves its older place over
-  where you have got to since, which could drop an episode out of Currently Listening.
-
-## [0.6.0] - 2026-09-15
-
-### Added
-
-- Each episode in Currently Listening has a cross that takes it off the list. It forgets where you
-  got to, so playing it again starts from the beginning.
-- An admin can give a feed a Directory category in its settings (`category` in config.toml), for
-  the blogs and other feeds that name none of their own. A feed's own iTunes category still wins.
-- Keyboard shortcuts after Feedly's: j and k through items, Shift-J and Shift-K through feeds,
-  g and a letter to go to a place, o to play, s to pin, and more. Press ? for the whole list.
-- Directory can be filtered to Podcasts or Blogs, and by each show's own iTunes category as a row
-  of chips, the narrower one where a show gives two (Games, not Leisure). The two combine, and
-  both filter in place.
-
-### Changed
-
-- Currently Listening marks the episode in the player with the EQ bars, as the item list does,
-  and its progress and time left move as it plays. Each row says how much is left.
-- Directory shows each feed as its cover art in a grid, title and subscriber count underneath,
-  instead of a list. Popular and the Add a feed dialog keep their rows.
-- The pages are set in Inter, served by ipx itself. Classic keeps Lucida Grande.
-- Keeping an item is now pinning it: a thumbtack in place of the flag, and Pin, Pinned and Unpin
-  in place of Keep, Kept and Stop keeping. A pinned item is still never deleted.
-- Currently Listening is its own place in the feed list, below Popular, instead of a section at
-  the bottom of the Popular page.
-- The first scan after upgrading fetches every feed in full once, on its usual schedule, so each
-  picks up its category without waiting for the publisher to change something.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- An episode that fails to load, or is paused before it has, no longer forgets where you left off
-  in it, and so no longer drops out of Currently Listening.
-- Currently Listening lists the episodes you have started. It left out anything marked read, and
-  opening an episode marks it read, so it usually showed nothing. An episode now leaves the list
-  once 90% of it has played.
-- A WordPress post that embeds the file it encloses no longer lists, and downloads, that file
-  twice. Items that already had it twice are folded into one at startup, and the spare copy
-  deleted.
-- The pinned column's heading lines up with the pins under it, and every heading sits a pixel
-  further right, over its column.
-- The feeds left behind by an OPML subscription removed before ipx retired them are cleared at
-  startup: forgotten if nothing was downloaded, kept as orphaned if something was. Feeds from it
-  that have since been given their own settings stay as they are, with their items. Removing an
-  OPML or Patreon subscription no longer deletes the items of a feed inside it that has its own
-  settings.
-- Titles that arrive as HTML, such as The Verge's, no longer show their entities as text:
-  "Meta&#8217;s" reads "Meta’s". Titles already stored are corrected the next time their feed
-  changes.
-
-## [0.5.5] - 2026-09-14
-
-### Changed
-
-- A feed whose site sends a message instead of the feed, such as "Unable to establish a DB
-  connection", now shows that message and is flagged as the publisher's problem, instead of two
-  parser errors about reaching the end of input.
-
-### Removed
-
-- An unused icon glyph (`minus`) left over from before Unsubscribe settled on `circleMinus`.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Add a feed opened over Directory or Popular now shows its Popular list instead of staying on
-  "Loading…", and no longer cuts the Directory behind it down to ten.
-
-## [0.5.4] - 2026-09-14
-
-### Added
-
-- Currently Listening, below Popular: episodes you started and have not finished, across every
-  feed you subscribe to. Tap one to pick up where you left off.
-- Theme has an Auto option, alongside Dark, Light and Classic, that follows your system's
-  light/dark setting. All four are now also in Settings, as a dropdown next to the header
-  button's one-click-at-a-time toggle -- the same setting either way.
-
-### Changed
-
-- The feed (or Directory/Popular/All Subscriptions) and the tab you had open are remembered
-  across a reload or a new visit. A feed you no longer subscribe to, or a first visit with
-  nothing remembered yet, lands on All Subscriptions instead of the first feed alphabetically.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- On iOS, the topbar (the hamburger menu included) could stop responding to taps until a hard
-  refresh. The page sized itself with `100vh`, which iOS Safari measures against the address
-  bar's collapsed state rather than what is actually visible; `100dvh` tracks the real viewport
-  as the bar shows and hides.
-
-## [0.5.3] - 2026-09-14
-
-### Added
-
-- A feed that has been failing for a day shows a plain-English reason in the sidebar and on its
-  own page, sorted from a 404, a 401/403, a 402, a name that no longer resolves, or a web page in
-  place of the feed -- with Unsubscribe or, when the page links its new feed, Use the new address.
-  A feed that fails once and reads fine again within a day is never flagged.
-
-### Changed
-
-- Unsubscribing from the last person's OPML or Patreon subscription now retires the feeds it
-  listed, the same as a feed the list itself drops: removed if nothing was downloaded, kept and
-  marked orphaned otherwise. Until now they stayed in the database and kept being scanned hourly
-  with auto-download on, which is how 922 defunct `davewiner` feeds outlived the OPML that listed
-  them.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- A feed whose XML uses a bare `&` instead of `&amp;` (kcpw, both feedland feeds) is now read
-  instead of refused.
-- A feed URL that now serves a web page says so, and names the feed the page links to when it has
-  one, instead of a raw XML parser error.
-- A publisher answering with an empty body (British Antarctic Survey's 202) is read as nothing new
-  to report, not a parse failure.
-- A link in an item's show notes opens in a new tab instead of navigating away from ipx.
-- A video file plays as video, in a small floating pane above the player bar, instead of silently
-  as sound only.
-- On the Unread tab, opening an item no longer makes it disappear from the list -- it stays until
-  you open a different one, even if a scan finishes and refreshes the list while it is open.
-- Subscribe and Unsubscribe have their own icons (a circled check and a circled minus) instead of
-  sharing the generic plus and minus used for adding feeds, users and imports.
-- Settings no longer disappears for a non-admin account. It was hiding the whole Settings modal
-  along with the log and the users screen, but a non-admin has settings of their own in there --
-  their subscriptions' Export and Import, and the schedule and quota are worth seeing even without
-  a say in them. Only the log and the users screen, which the server also refuses them, are gone.
-
-## [0.5.2] - 2026-09-12
-
-### Added
-
-- Settings → Users and `ipx user list` show when each account was added and when it last signed
-  in, to the hour.
-- `ipx user rename <name> <new name>` renames an account and keeps its feeds, read state and admin
-  rights. An account made before the proxy was set up can take the name the proxy signs it in as.
-
-### Changed
-
-- Directory and Popular list the feeds inside an OPML one by one, and no longer the OPML itself,
-  so you can subscribe to just the shows you want.
-- The database no longer records when subscriptions and sign-in sessions were created. Nothing
-  ever read it, and an existing database drops the columns on its next start.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- Show notes that the podcast's host cut off in the middle of a tag no longer open with a scrap of
-  HTML: the item's other copy of its notes is used instead, from the next time the feed changes.
-  Daily Meditation Podcast had 57.
-- Docker no longer shows ipodderx as starting, or calls it unhealthy, while it scans or downloads:
-  `ipx status` answers at once instead of waiting for the job in progress to finish.
-- Signing out after signing in through Cloudflare Access no longer lands on ipodderx's own password
-  page. With the new `sign_out_url` set, Sign out ends the Access session, and the password page
-  sends anyone the proxy signs in straight to their feeds.
-- The sign-in guide, `docs/sso.md`, describes the setup ipodderx.sdf1.net really runs: Authentik as
-  Cloudflare Access's identity provider, and how to find the address ipx has to trust. It had never
-  been checked against a real setup, and pointed at the wrong address.
-
-## [0.5.1] - 2026-09-12
-
-### Fixed
-
-- The triangle that opens an OPML or Patreon folder was cramped against the folder's art. It has
-  more room now, and a wider target to click.
-
-## [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/`.

 ## Where things are
 
-Production is the `iPodderX` container on Tower (192.168.1.130), the `ipodderx` service of the

+Production is the `iPX` container on Tower (192.168.1.130), the `ipx` service of the
+Arcane project `ipx`: `/mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml`. That file is what runs, and
+the containers of the split (#207) join it there. `docker-compose.yml` in this repo is a sample for
+others, ipx alone on SQLite; editing it changes nothing in production. Until 2026-10-12 ipx was a
+service of the `content` project, beside audiobookshelf, immich and Plex (#208).

+`TODO.md`. `/src/tea` is logged in: `/src/tea issues list --login git.sdf1.net --repo rays/ipx`.
+
+**Every problem found gets an issue, before it is fixed.** A bug, a gap or a security hole turned
+up along the way (reading logs, a review, a test that fails for another reason) is filed as soon
+as it is found, even if it is fixed a minute later, so there is a record of what was wrong and
+when. Name the issue in the commit that fixes it (`(#40)` in the subject). Once the fix is on
+`main` and pushed, comment on the issue with what changed and the commit, then close it:
+
+```sh
+R="--login git.sdf1.net --repo rays/ipx"
+t() { timeout 30 /src/tea "$@" < /dev/null; }
+t issues create $R -t "Web token printed in the startup log" -L bug -d "What is wrong, where, how it was found."
+t comment $R 40 "Fixed in 3625cf4: the startup line says where the token is kept, not what it is. Deployed in 0.8.3."
+t issues close $R 40
+```
+
+**Give tea a closed stdin and a timeout**, as `t` does. Without a terminal, `tea comment` waits on
+stdin and never exits; a script closing seven issues sat hung for a day on the second (#39).
+
+Labels: `bug` for something wrong, `enhancement` for something missing. A problem found and left
+for later stays open, and that is how it gets picked up again.
 
 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
+docker buildx build --tag 192.168.1.130:5000/ipx:latest . --push
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml pull ipx
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml up -d ipx
+docker logs --tail 20 iPX
 ```
 
-**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.
+The directory is the same, with its own image:
+
+```sh
+docker buildx build -f Dockerfile.directory --tag 192.168.1.130:5000/ipx-directory:latest . --push
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml pull ipx-directory
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml up -d ipx-directory
+```
+
+And the page, `ipx-web`, the same again; a change to `web/` alone needs only this one:
+
+```sh
+docker buildx build -f Dockerfile.web --tag 192.168.1.130:5000/ipx-web:latest . --push
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml pull ipx-web
+docker compose -f /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/compose.yaml up -d ipx-web
+```
+
+The home page (`site/`, #216) is not on Tower. `sh site/build.sh` puts it in `site/dist` with the
+typeface, logo and icon from `web/`, and it goes to the Cloudflare Pages project `ipxreader` by
+direct upload, since there is no wrangler login here: hash each file as wrangler does (BLAKE3 of
+its base64 contents plus its extension, the first 32 hex digits, with the `blake3-wasm` package),
+ask the project for an upload token (`GET .../pages/projects/ipxreader/upload-token`), send the
+files to `/pages/assets/upload` with that token, then create a deployment
+(`POST .../pages/projects/ipxreader/deployments`) with the manifest of paths and hashes and
+`_headers`. Its screenshots (`site/shots`) come from a scratch iPX on public feeds, never
+production's, which would show whose subscriptions are whose.
+
+Testing sign-in from Tower itself proves nothing about the tunnel: Tower's own requests reach the
+published port as `192.168.1.130`, and Caddy rightly strips their `Cf-Access-*`. Send them from a
+container on another network, as cloudflared's are (#209).
+
+The three containers resolve names through Cloudflare (`dns: [1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1]` in the compose
+file), not the router: the LAN's DNS is NextDNS, which answers for a domain it filters with its own
+block page, and ipx then logged a feed as failing with `invalid peer certificate: UnknownIssuer`
+(tomrenner.com, 2026-10-17). Docker's own DNS still answers for the services' names first.
+
+**Name the service.** A bare `up -d` recreates every container in the project, which once the
+split lands means the frontend and directory too. 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
+this host. There is no Docker Hub login here, and the build asks about `debian:trixie-slim` and
+`rust:1-slim-trixie` 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
+docker pull mirror.gcr.io/library/debian:trixie-slim
+docker tag mirror.gcr.io/library/debian:trixie-slim debian:trixie-slim
+docker pull mirror.gcr.io/library/rust:1-slim-trixie
+docker tag mirror.gcr.io/library/rust:1-slim-trixie rust:1-slim-trixie
 ```
 
 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 daemon answers there and can read its database, not just that the web port is up. The socket
-answers `status` itself instead of queuing it behind the worker's current job, so a long scan or
-download does not fail the check; it also means a worker stuck on one job would still pass. The
-container restarts on its own after a reboot.
+The containers have no Docker healthcheck (#218): Docker runs one with `exec`, which on Tower
+fails whenever root is logged out, because elogind removes `/run/user/0`, where containerd puts
+each exec's state. Whether ipx is well is Prometheus's question (`up`, the worker's job and time)
+and `ipx status` against the control socket, which says the daemon answers and can read its
+database. The socket answers `status` itself instead of queuing it behind the worker's current
+job, so a worker stuck on one job still answers it. The containers restart on their 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.
+a daemon by hand for testing, **stop it by its own PID**: start it with `& echo $! > pid` and
+`kill $(cat pid)`. Never `pkill -x ipx`: Tower sees the container's processes, so it kills
+production's daemon as well (issue #38). Never `pkill -f ipx` either: `-f` matches the shell
+running the command and kills the session (exit 144), which has happened more than once.
 
 ## Before you touch the page
 
 There are three pages: the app (`web/index.html`), the admin page (`web/admin.html`, sent to
 admins only) and sign-in (`web/login.html`). The app and admin pages share one stylesheet,
 `web/app.css`, and their script is TypeScript in `web/src/`; `web/build.mjs` lists which files
-make up each page's script. `build.rs` runs
-`web/build.mjs`, which uses swc to strip the types and minify the script into `app.js` (and
-`login.js`), and minifies the page, and the results are `include_str!`d into the binary. The page
-loads its script as `/app.js?v=<hash of its contents>`, and `/app.css` the same way: the page is
-served `no-cache` and the script and stylesheet `immutable`, so a browser keeps them until a
-deploy changes them and their names. So **every page change needs a
-rebuild** before it is visible, and building needs node and `npm ci` run once.
+make up each page's script. The page is its own image, **`ipx-web`** (#203): `web/build.mjs` uses
+swc to strip the types and minify each script (`app.js`, `admin.js`, `login.js`), minifies the
+pages, and puts them with the icons and typeface in `web/dist`, which Caddy serves
+(`web/Caddyfile`, `Dockerfile.web`), passing `/api` and `/media` to ipx on the same origin. ipx
+serves no page. The page loads its script as `/app.js?v=<hash of its contents>`, and `/app.css`
+and `/boot.js` the same way: the page is served `no-cache` and those `immutable`, so a browser
+keeps them until a deploy changes them and their names. So **every page change needs ipx-web
+rebuilt and deployed**, not ipx, and building needs node and `npm ci` run once.
+
+Caddy asks ipx before it serves a page (`forward_auth`): `/api/page-check` sends a browser that is

+**Builds share Tower with everything else, production included.** On 2026-10-16 a build of the
+directory followed in the same command by its tests' compile took Tower's load past 200 and the
+session was stopped. So:
+
+* One cargo command at a time: a build, then the tests, as separate commands, never chained or
+  run in the background beside another, and never two crates' builds at once. Do not tune `-j`.
+* Look at the load before and after each (`cat /proc/loadavg`). Above about 24, Tower's twelve
+  threads twice over, wait for it to come down before starting another.
+* Test only what the change is in. ipx uses ipx-directory, and both use ipx-feed, so:
+
+  | changed | run |
+  |---|---|
+  | `web/` alone | the three page checks; `npx playwright test -g '<what changed>'`; no cargo |
+  | `crates/ipx/` | `cargo test -p ipx`; the browser tests too if the API changed |
+  | `crates/directory/` | `cargo test -p ipx-directory`, then `-p ipx` |
+  | `crates/feed/` | `cargo test -p ipx-feed`, then `-p ipx-directory`, then `-p ipx` |
+  | `Cargo.toml`, `Cargo.lock` | all three, one at a time |
+
+  The pre-commit hook's clippy follows the same table. The whole browser suite once, at the end
+  of a change to the page or the API; never `cargo test` for the workspace in one command.
+* Builds and test binaries live under `target/`, a link to `/mnt/fast`; linking through
+  `/mnt/user` (FUSE) once took the load to 248 on its own.
+* **Memory is the tighter limit.** Tower has 31 GB, no swap, and the containers leave about 4-7
+  GB. A build past that stalls everything on page faults: load 160 with the CPU idle and the
+  disks quiet, many processes blocked (`node_procs_blocked`, `node_vmstat_pgmajfault`). On
+  2026-10-18 linking a 431 MB test binary did it for 54 minutes. So `[profile.dev]` keeps only
+  line tables and dependencies no debug info; keep it that way, and look at `MemAvailable` beside
+  the load.
+
+The Rust is formatted by rustfmt (`rustfmt.toml`) and kept free of clippy's warnings. Claude Code
+formats each `.rs` file it edits (a hook in `.claude/settings.json`), and the pre-commit hook refuses
+a commit touching Rust that is unformatted or has a clippy warning. A clone turns on the hook once: `git config core.hooksPath .githooks`; and `git config blame.ignoreRevsFile
+.git-blame-ignore-revs` keeps blame past the commit that first formatted everything. A clippy
+suggestion is not always the same code: on adopting it, `fold(false, |any, id| remove(id) || any)`
+was offered as `any(...)`, which stops at the first and would have removed one feed of many. A lint
+that is wrong for a line gets `#[allow(clippy::...)]` there with a comment saying why.

@@ -118,9 +241,52 @@ Things about the browser suite that have cost time:
 * `webServer` starts **before** `globalSetup`, which is why the fixture config is written at
   config-load time instead.
 
+The load tests (`tests/load`, issue #133) are for what one browser cannot show: twenty-five people
+browsing at once, a hundred players saving positions while a scan writes, fifty listeners
+seeking through files, a flood of wrong passwords. Things about them:
+
+* They need **k6**, which `/src/install.sh` installs from k6's own signed apt repository, and they
+  build and run a **release** binary: Argon2 in a debug build takes about a second a sign-in,
+  which would measure the build.
+* `run.js` serves the feeds itself, generated, and starts **its own daemon** under
+  `/tmp/ipx-load`, wiped each run, on ports 8793 and 8794, so it can run beside the browser suite.
+  It stops that daemon by its PID. People sign in by the `X-Load-User` header, trusted from
+  127.0.0.1, as production trusts Cloudflare Access's; only the sign-in test uses a password.
+* Each threshold is a budget well above what the request takes now: it is there to catch a query
+  that has started asking once per feed, or writers queueing on a lock, not a slow minute.
+* `ipx status` runs every second throughout, and a run fails if one takes 5s.
+* One at a time: `node tests/load/run.js signin`. All four take about six minutes.
+* The daemon is on **SQLite** unless `--postgres`, which puts it in `IPX_TEST_DATABASE_URL`, in
+  a schema of its own (`ipx_load`) dropped and made again each run. That URL, in `/src/.envrc`, is
+  `ipodderx_test` on the `databases` project's server, production's, as `ipodderx`, taken from
+  `ipx.env`; the harness refuses a database whose name does not end in `_test`. Postgres's
+  numbers are what production would see, and a run loads the server production's database is on,
+  so not while someone is using iPX in earnest. Each budget has a value for each database.
+* The Rust tests run on Postgres with the same URL: `. /src/.envrc && cargo test`. Each test
+  makes a schema `ipxt_<pid>_<n>`, and the next run drops those an earlier one left.
+
 Non-trivial logic leaves one runnable check behind. Pure functions (`merge_policy`, `pick`,
 `matches_keywords`, `parse_interval`) are the easiest place to put it.
 
+## Production's database
+
+The owner allows `EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS)` of any query against production's Postgres, to see
+where a query's time goes; nothing else without asking. Run it read only, so nothing can change:
+
+```sh
+U=$(grep -E '^IPX_DATABASE_URL=' /mnt/fast/arcane/projects/ipx/ipx.env | cut -d= -f2- | tr -d '"')
+psql "$U" -X -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 <<'SQL'
+BEGIN READ ONLY;
+EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) SELECT ...;
+ROLLBACK;
+SQL
+```
+
+Never print the URL: it carries the password. Write the query as ipx sends it (`$1` parameters
+become `PREPARE`/`EXECUTE`, or values), for a real account. A query fast here and slow in ipx's
+trace is time outside the query: on 2026-10-15 the feed list's count took 5 ms in Postgres and 366
+ms in ipx, the difference being new connections, 80-330 ms each to open (#241).

+| service | version in | changelog | tag |

+| ipx-directory | `crates/directory/Cargo.toml` | `crates/directory/CHANGELOG.md` | `directory-vX.Y.Z` |
+| ipx-web, the page | `package.json` | `web/CHANGELOG.md` | `web-vX.Y.Z` |
+
+`crates/feed` is a library the two Rust services build in, not released (`0.0.0`); a change to it
+is a line in the changelog of each service it changes. The page shows ipx's version and its own in
+the logo's tooltip; the directory logs its own at start; each binary answers `--version`.
+
+Cutting a release of one: first read its `[Unreleased]` against its last release, not line by
+line, and rewrite it as what changed between the two. Lines go in as the work happens, so they
+record the way there: a feature added and then reworked in the same release is one line saying
+what it is now, under Added; something added and taken out again before the release, or a fix for
+a bug no release ever had, is not there at all; and "instead of" and "no longer" compare with the
+last release, not with last week. Issue numbers stay, all of them, on the line that survives. Then
+rename `[Unreleased]` to `## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD` and open a new empty `[Unreleased]` above it,
+set the service's version to `X.Y.Z` (dropping `-dev`), tag the commit with the service's tag, and
+update the compare links at the bottom of its changelog. Push the commit and the tag, build and
+deploy the service's image, then `sh scripts/release.sh ipx|directory|web` makes the Gitea
+release: that version's changelog section as its notes, and a tarball of what the image runs (the
+binary, or the page's files with the Caddyfile) attached, checked to be that version. Then, in the
+next commit, set its version
+to the next patch with `-dev` (after 0.9.0, `0.9.1-dev`), so a build between releases says so
+instead of claiming to be the last release. The release that follows can still be a minor or major
+one; `-dev` only says the work comes after `X.Y.Z`. A service never released is at `0.1.0-dev`,
+working towards its first release, `0.1.0`.
+
+**Traces first, logs second.** Anything that does work (a service, a handler, a job, a call to
+another service) gets spans, and passes `traceparent` on to whatever it calls, so one trace in
+Tempo follows a request or a job across ipx-web, ipx and the directory. A trace shows where the
+time went and what called what; a log line only that something happened. Log what a trace cannot
+carry: events worth counting on the dashboard, warnings and errors. A new service or route without
+traces is not finished.
 
 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.
+* They are the open issues in Gitea, not a list here: a limitation known and left in place is an
+  issue left open.
+
+## Styleguide

+# Changelog: ipx-directory
+
+The directory of public podcasts that ipx servers share (docs/directory.md). ipx's changelog is
+[crates/ipx/CHANGELOG.md](../ipx/CHANGELOG.md), the page's [web/CHANGELOG.md](../../web/CHANGELOG.md).
+
+Its version is in `crates/directory/Cargo.toml`, and a release is tagged `directory-vX.Y.Z`.
+
+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).
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [1.4.0] - 2026-10-23
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A WordPress.com site that answers its feed with a browser check (HTTP 403) is read from WordPress.com's API instead of failing (#317).
+
+### Security
+
+- HTTPS connections no longer trust certificates from emSign's distrusted intermediates, and certificate checks use constant-time comparisons: rustls-webpki, webpki-roots and ctutils are updated (#351).
+- The public pages read the list from the database at most once a minute, however many people ask. Each page asked for the whole catalogue, so a flood of requests with query strings of their own reached the database every time (#341).
+- The directory no longer fetches feeds at internal addresses (loopback, the LAN, Docker's networks), named in a snapshot or reached by a redirect, unless directory.toml's `fetch_internal` lists them. It fetched them, and stored what answered as the feed's title and description (#329).
+- A server's count of a feed's subscribers is taken up to a million. Two servers sending the largest number there is made the sum overflow, and every listing and page failed until one was dropped (#342).
+
+## [1.3.0] - 2026-10-19
+
+### Added
+
+- A feed's items written in Markdown show formatted on its page, from a Markdown description or RSS's `<source:markdown>` (#284).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A listed feed whose address serves something larger than 50 MB is refused as too large, instead of read whole into memory at every check (#295).
+
+### Security
+
+- ammonia, which cleans publishers' HTML, updated to 4.2.4 for three advisories, among them XSS through SVG animation tags; rustls to 0.23.46 for five and h2 to 0.4.20 for one (#281).
+
+## [1.2.0] - 2026-10-16
+
+### Added
+
+- Answers and pages go out compressed, brotli, zstd or gzip as the caller takes them: the feed list ipx asks for was 603 KB of JSON. A snapshot may come gzipped, `/metrics` answers gzipped, and with `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_COMPRESSION=gzip` traces go to the collector compressed (#253).
+- With `apple_country` set, Apple Podcasts' top charts for that country (the top 100 and the top 50 of each category) come into the directory every week, beside what servers share, without counting as subscribers; and a warning says when Apple's categories no longer match ipx's (#252).
+
+### Changed
+
+- Each feed is checked every twelve hours instead of six (#243).
+- Feeds are fetched accepting brotli and zstd as well as gzip (#244).
+- On Postgres the server keeps all ten of its database connections open, so a request does not wait for a new one (#241).
+
+## [1.1.1] - 2026-10-15
+
+### Changed
+
+- The directory checks five feeds at a time, so a publisher that does not answer no longer holds up the rest of its round (#227).
+- A feed's server that takes 10 s to connect, or sends nothing for 15 s, is given up on (#230).
+
+### Security
+
+- A failed feed check is logged without its address's query or password (#238).
+
+## [1.1.0] - 2026-10-13
+
+### Added
+
+- With `metrics_bind` set, the directory serves Prometheus metrics on a port of its own: memory, open files, and the feeds it has fetched and their bytes. A feed check's trace says how large the feed was (#224).
+
+### Changed
+
+- The directory uses mimalloc instead of glibc's allocator, so it gives back memory it has freed instead of holding over a gigabyte while idle (#224).
+- The example in docs/directory.md has no healthcheck; `ipx-directory health` is still there to run by hand (#218).
+
+### Security
+
+- A feed check's trace keeps the feed's address without its query or password (#225).
+
+## [1.0.0] - 2026-10-12
+
+### Added
+
+- Anyone can browse the directory in a web browser, read only: the most subscribed, categories, every feed A to Z, a search by name, and each feed's page with its latest items and its address to copy into any podcast app (#215).
+- `GET /v1/instances` lists the servers holding a snapshot, with their feeds and subscribers, for an admin token (#206).
+- `ipx-directory`, a directory of public podcasts that ipx servers share: each sends the public feeds its people subscribe to, and any server with a token browses them, each feed listed once it has been read. Tokens are in its config file, each read-only, read-write or admin, and revoked one at a time (#204, #205).
+- Traces: a span a request, joining the trace of the ipx server that called, and a trace a refresher round with a span a feed (#213).

+# Changelog: ipx
+
+The daemon: the API, scans, downloads, DeadAir and the database. The page has its own changelog,
+[web/CHANGELOG.md](../../web/CHANGELOG.md), and the directory service its own,
+[crates/directory/CHANGELOG.md](../directory/CHANGELOG.md). Until 0.12.0 this was the changelog of
+all of ipx, the page included; they were split with the services (#207).
+
+Its version is in `crates/ipx/Cargo.toml`, and a release is tagged `vX.Y.Z`.
+
+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).
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [1.5.0] - 2026-10-23
+
+### Changed
+
+- Traces show more of where a request's time goes: a page of items' query and its files apart, artwork's cache, check and fetch, the status counts, and each part of changing or leaving a feed (#350).
+- A page of items finds its files by feed as well as item: it read every file's row in the database, about a quarter of a second a page (#344).
+- A page of items asks for its count beside the items, and the feed list asks its five questions at once, where each waited for the one before (#346).
+- A Signal's counts of items and of unread ones are worked out in one pass, not two (#348).
+- Artwork kept on disk is read and written off the threads that answer requests, and two requests for the same missing artwork fetch it once (#345, #349).
+- Unread lists and counts start from each person's oldest unread item in each feed, which the daily cleanup works out, instead of reading the whole back catalogue and everything you have read (#347, #352).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A WordPress.com site that answers its feed with a browser check (HTTP 403, "Checking your browser...") is read from WordPress.com's API instead, so Pelgrane Press's feed no longer fails for hours at a time. The items are the ones the feed gave: same ids (#317).
+
+### Security
+
+- An episode that comes as a torrent downloads into a folder of its own, `torrent-<id>` in its podcast's folder. A torrent could name a path anywhere on the server for Delete, the cleanup and playback to act on, and could overwrite other episodes' files of the same name (#318, #331).
+- A downloaded file opens in the browser only when it is audio, video, an image other than SVG, a PDF or plain text, and is saved otherwise. An SVG or web page a podcast sent ran its script as iPX, signed in as whoever opened it (#319).
+- An OPML nested more than 100 levels deep is refused, uploaded or fetched. A deep enough one stopped iPX, and a subscribed one stopped it again each time it restarted (#322).
+- A `.torrent` file larger than 10 MB, or slower than the torrent stall limit, is refused. iPX read one into memory however large it was (#330).
+- Feeds, episodes, artwork and `.torrent` files are no longer fetched from internal addresses (loopback, the LAN, Docker's networks), redirects included, unless config.toml's `fetch_internal` lists them. Adding a feed could read what a service inside the network answered (#320).
+- HTTPS connections no longer trust certificates from emSign's distrusted intermediates, and certificate checks use constant-time comparisons: rustls-webpki, webpki-roots and ctutils are updated (#351).
+- A new install's `admin` gets a random password, written to `admin-password` beside config.toml and readable by iPX's user alone, or the one in `IPX_ADMIN_PASSWORD`. Every install began as admin / ipodderx, a password published in the README, and the log printed it (#321).
+- A show kept from a private OPML or Patreon list stays private, with the list's username and password, once the list is removed or left. It became public and was shared to the directory (#332).
+- A feed's username and password go to its own host alone: not to its episodes on other hosts, nor to the feeds an OPML lists on other hosts, which took the OPML's password on every check (#327, #328).
+- A check of one feed asks at most eight hosts whether its artwork is on https. A feed could name artwork on as many hosts as it liked, each asked in turn for up to 20 seconds, and hold up every other feed's check for hours (#339).
+- An OPML or Patreon list may bring in up to 2,000 feeds; one with more shows an error and adds none. A list of tens of thousands held up checking for everyone, and adding its feeds read the whole feeds table once for each (#337).
+- A request that changes something is refused when a browser sent it from another site. A page on another site, a sibling subdomain included, could mark everything read, start downloads, subscribe you to a Directory feed or sign you out (#336).
+- `ipx user passwd` signs the account out of every browser, and says how many of its API tokens still work. A session signed in with the old password went on working (#334).
+- Live updates about a feed go only to the people who read it, and admins. Everyone signed in had every feed's, errors included, which carried a paid feed's address with its key (#325).
+- An open page stops getting live updates within half a minute of its account being removed. They went on until the page was closed (#335).
+- Only someone subscribed to a feed, or an admin, may mark it private. Anyone signed in could keep anyone's feed, or a whole OPML's, out of the directory, and only an admin could undo it (#333).
+- An OPML upload may add up to 2,000 feeds; one with more is refused and adds none. Importing tens of thousands held up every change to the feed list for minutes and left them all in it (#338).
+- Password checks stay a few at a time when the person signing in gives up before the answer. Each sign-in that hung up let another start, so a flood of them used every core (#324).
+- Jev picks at most 20 icons an hour for each person, on the server's key; past that the page says to choose one by hand. Anyone signed in could have it pick without end, on the server's bill, holding back everyone's Signals (#340).
+- Each person's Signals on an item are judged in a call of their own, on the server's key too. One person's description was in the question that decided another's verdicts (#343).
+
+## [1.4.0] - 2026-10-19
+
+### Added
+
+- An item whose feed sends Markdown beside its HTML, as Scripting News does with `<source:markdown>`, keeps it: `markdown` and `markdown_html` in the API's items (#285).
+- An item written in Markdown shows formatted, not as Markdown's raw characters: a description in Markdown, or, with no other text, RSS's `<source:markdown>`. HTML a feed sends is left as it is (#284).
+- A show from an OPML subscription or a Patreon creator can be kept: `kept` on `PATCH /api/feeds/{id}` and in the feed list. When the OPML drops a kept show, or you leave the OPML, it stays on your list as a feed of its own (#280).
+- `/metrics` counts Signals: items judged and fitting, calls to Jev by how they ended, the time they took and the tokens TypeSafe counted, by person and by whose key paid so the server's bill can be split, time since the judge's last pass, and keys refused; a failed call to Jev shows as a failed trace (#270, #275, #278).
+- An admin setting for how many days back a new Signal reads (#276).
+- A list's trace says which filter, sort and page it was asked for, and whether a search, so a slow list can be told from the others (#287).
+- A feed, an OPML subscription or a Patreon creator can be left out of All Subscriptions: `hide_from_all` on `PATCH /api/feeds/{id}` and in the feed list. Set on an OPML or creator it covers every show in it; Signals and Currently Listening still read them (#288).
+- A feed, an OPML subscription or a Patreon creator can be kept out of Signals: `hide_from_signals` on `PATCH /api/feeds/{id}` and in the feed list. Jev is not asked about its items, so they cost nothing, and they are left out of each Signal's list and counts (#289).
+- An admin setting, Signals for everyone on the server's TypeSafe key, so the server pays for Jev instead of each person (#271).
+
+### Changed
+
+- `GET /api/feeds/{id}/entries` for an OPML subscription or a Patreon creator lists the items of the shows in it that you subscribe to, together, where it listed nothing (#283).
+- A TypeSafe key is checked with TypeSafe before it is saved, and one it refuses is not saved (#271).
+- A new Signal reads the last week instead of the last 30 days, unless an admin sets otherwise (#276).
+- Editing a Signal's name, words or description asks again only about what it had picked out, and about new items as they come, instead of the whole window again (#276).
+- Signals fill faster and cost less: up to ten calls to TypeSafe at once instead of one, paced under TypeSafe's limits of 80 calls and 100,000 input tokens a second, with every call held back while TypeSafe answers 429 (#277), everyone's Signals on an item in one call on the server's key, and an item's text cut at 1,000 characters instead of 2,000 (#275).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Artwork comes quickly: an image already kept is served without asking the database again, and the database finds which feed names an image by an index instead of reading every item, which took over half a second an image (#272).
+- The Directory shows the artwork of podcasts nobody on this server subscribes to, where it drew their initials (#273).
+- Artwork a publisher sends without an image type, or as `application/octet-stream`, is shown when it is a JPEG, PNG, GIF or WebP, instead of initials (#279).
+- Looking for items to read for Signals read every item on the server on each scan; it now reads only recent ones (#274).
+- With the downloads folder out of reach during a clean-up, as when the array stops, every downloaded episode was taken as deleted by hand and forgotten; the clean-up now leaves them alone until the folder is back (#293).
+- A feed address that serves something larger than 50 MB, such as an episode's file given as a feed, is refused as too large, instead of read whole into memory at every check (#295).
+- Searching items for `%` or `_` finds those characters, instead of treating them as wildcards that matched nearly everything (#296).
+
+### Security
+
+- ammonia, which cleans publishers' HTML, updated to 4.2.4 for three advisories, among them XSS through SVG animation tags; rustls to 0.23.46 for five and h2 to 0.4.20 for one, in every connection ipx makes (#281).
+- The address of a file being downloaded, which for Patreon carries its signature, is sent to open pages and written to the log without its query, as other addresses already were (#292).
+
+## [1.3.0] - 2026-10-16
+
+### Added
+
+- Signals: a feed of your own, picked out of the noise of everything you subscribe to, holding the items TypeSafe's Jev says are about the subject you give it: a name, words, and a sentence of your own if they are not enough, from the last 30 days and every new one, judged on your own TypeSafe key, each with an icon of its own if you like, which Jev can pick on the server's TypeSafe key (`POST /api/signals/icon`) (`/api/signals`, and `typesafe_key` on `/api/me`) (#254).
+- With `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_COMPRESSION=gzip`, traces go to the collector compressed; `/metrics` answers gzipped, and a snapshot goes to the directory gzipped (#253).
+- A Directory request's trace shows the call to the directory whole, with the size of its answer, and the steps that match it against your subscriptions (#250).
+- The page's report of how long a list took to show after a click (`list_shown`, with the view and filter) is logged under that click's trace (#246).
+
+### Changed
+
+- A feed that sends the same body again, as Patreon and Substack do whatever they are asked, is taken as unchanged instead of read again, and, without a schedule of its own, checked less often the longer it stays the same, up to every four hours, back on schedule when it changes (#242).
+- Feeds are fetched accepting brotli and zstd as well as gzip (#244).
+- On Postgres the daemon keeps all twenty of its database connections open, so a page load no longer waits for new ones, 80-330 ms each: the feed list and item lists took 0.3-1.6 s now and then, where their queries take 5-30 ms (#241).
+- Currently Listening and the Pinned filter answer in a few milliseconds: they read every item on the server, 1.3 s for Currently Listening (#249).
+
+## [1.2.0] - 2026-10-15
+
+### Added
+
+- `scan_done` on the event stream says which feed or folder the scan was limited to and whether someone asked for it (`only`, `forced`), so a page can tell the end of its own scan from a scheduled one's (#233).
+
+### Changed
+
+- Check every feed looks up the site icons of feeds without artwork a few at a time, alongside the fetches, instead of one after another (#228).
+- A feed's server that sends nothing for 15 s is given up on, instead of holding a scan for the full 30 s; a feed that keeps sending still has 30 s (#230).
+- A scan's trace names the feed each fetch is for (#229).
+
+### Security
+
+- A failure's words, and the addresses in an event, go to the log and to every open page without their query or password, where a private feed keeps its key: a failed fetch of a Patreon feed logged its `auth` key (#238).
+
+## [1.1.0] - 2026-10-13
+
+### Added
+
+- `/metrics` counts the feeds fetched and the bytes of their bodies (`ipx_feed_fetches_total`, `ipx_feed_bytes_total`), and a feed's trace says how large its body was (#224).
+
+### Changed
+
+- ipx uses mimalloc instead of glibc's allocator, which gives freed memory back to the system: with glibc's, the memory a night of scans needed stayed held until a restart (#224).
+- `docker-compose.yml` has no healthchecks: Docker runs them with exec, which can fail on the host while ipx is well. The library's counts in `/metrics` are kept every 30 s by the daemon itself (#218).
+
+### Security
+
+- Traces no longer keep a feed's or file's address with its query or password, where private feeds carry their credentials, such as Patreon's `auth` (#225).
+
+## [1.0.0] - 2026-10-12
+
+### Added
+
+- With a directory token that may administer it, ipx's admins remove a feed from the directory (blocking it) or check it now, list and unblock what is blocked, and list and drop the servers sharing (#206).
+- ipx passes its trace on when it calls the directory, so a Directory page is one trace from the browser to the directory (#213).
+
+### Changed
+
+- The Directory comes from a directory service that iPX servers share, set up in Admin, Directory with its address and this server's token, instead of only this server's feeds. Sharing this server's public feeds with it is a setting, never a private one, and subscriber counts are every sharing server's. ipx sends the directory its feeds when they change, and every half hour (#205, #211).
+- A feed can be marked private, which keeps it out of the directory. A feed with a login, or whose address carries a key, is private already (#205).
+- ipx serves no page: the page is ipx-web's, which passes the API on to ipx, and ipx is built without node (#203).
+- `docker-compose.yml` is a sample to start from, ipx alone on SQLite with its folders beside the file, instead of a copy of the author's server (#208).
+- The source is a Cargo workspace: the daemon in `crates/ipx`, feed fetching and parsing in `crates/feed`. `cargo build --release` still makes `target/release/ipx` (#202).
+
+## [0.12.0] - 2026-10-11
+
+### Added
+
+- With `[web] metrics_bind` set, ipx serves Prometheus metrics on a port and thread of their own: the database pool, the worker's job and queue, jobs done and their time, scans, downloads and requests in progress, download speed, live-update listeners and missed updates, DeadAir's backlog, the artwork cache's fill, hit rate and evictions, memory, open files and the library's counts. (#194, #195, #198, #199).
+- The page reports its errors, the player's, how long play takes to start and how long it stalls to the server's log, and the requests one tap sets off share a trace, the playlist, audio and saved place of what it played included (#190, #192).
+- Saving an episode from a show with DeadAir on saves it without its dead air, at your breathing room (#186).
+- Choose the pause DeadAir leaves where it cuts a silence, from 0.2 to 0.5 seconds, for each show in its settings, as its breathing room, on a slider from brisk to relaxed. It is 0.3 seconds unless you change it, up from 0.2, which made speech sound rushed (#182, #183).
+
+### Changed
+
+- DeadAir no longer makes a shortened copy of each episode. It plays the original with its long silences left out, ready a few seconds after the download, with no gap where a silence was cut and no extra disk space; the copies already made are removed (#179, #181, #196).
+- DeadAir is in the same box as a show's download settings, below them, and stays there when automatic downloads are off (#185).
+- The container is built on Debian 13 (trixie) instead of 12, so DeadAir uses ffmpeg 7.1 instead of 5.1 (#177).
+- On Postgres, ipx keeps up to 20 connections to the database instead of 10, for the bursts of a page load asking for many covers at once (#200).
+- Traces of the disk sweep, episode lists and DeadAir's work on each file show each step, and the sweep's trace says what it removed (#187).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- All Subscriptions, and every item list, comes up faster, most of all the first time after a quiet spell: it took half a second to two (#188).
+- Checking for new episodes no longer waits up to 12 seconds each time on a clear-out of dead feeds from the Directory, which now runs once a day (#193).
+- A page left open no longer misses updates after a check for new episodes: the note that each feed not due was skipped, one per feed, filled the queue they share (#197).
+
+### Security
+
+- Cloudflare no longer keeps a copy of the audio you play, which it served to anyone it let in without checking they subscribe (#189).
+
+## [0.11.0] - 2026-10-09
+
+### Added
+
+- DeadAir: turn it on for a show in its settings, or with the button beside the speed while it plays, and its episodes play with long silences shortened, so podcasts finish sooner without sounding sped up. Your place carries over when you turn it on or off, each episode says how much shorter it is ("Cutting dead air…" until it is done), and Settings shows the time it has saved you. It is off for every show until you turn it on (#171, #172, #173, #174, #176).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A downloaded file's play, save, share and delete buttons stay on one row in the Files pane, instead of delete wrapping underneath (#175).
+- Cover art up to 20 MB is shown, instead of nothing for anything over 5 MB, as for five of the Glass Cannon Network's feeds.
+- Seeking in an episode while many people listen answers in about 10 ms instead of 40, and files stream about four times as fast: each connection now sends what is ready without waiting for the browser to acknowledge the last part.
+- Artwork that could not be fetched is not fetched again for an hour, instead of on every page load, and the server's log says which image it was and why.
+
+## [0.10.3] - 2026-10-09
+
+### Changed
+
+- Swiping past the last item shows the theme's accent colour, without the words "No more items".
+- An empty list and the reader with nothing picked say nothing, instead of "Nothing here yet — try Scan now." and "Pick an item to read it."; a search that finds nothing still says so.
+- In Settings, the API tokens sit in a box of their own.
+- A feed's settings are redesigned: downloading on its own is a switch with what depends on it beneath, how many is Default, Newest or All shown on a strip of the show's own episodes, words to pick or hide are chips, the feed's address is at the top with a copy button, and Save is always in reach. Its folder and Directory category are no longer in it.
+- The feed list's traces show each of its database queries, so it can be told where its time goes.
+- Saving a feed's settings asks the database for your subscription once, not twice.
+- `ipx add` and Add feed in the page add a feed the same way, through one piece of code.
+- A pinned item or feed's pin button is filled with the theme's accent, in the reader, on the feed's page and in the toolbar, so pinned no longer looks like not pinned.
+- A feed's page in the Directory says how many people here subscribe only when someone does, without "Nobody here subscribes yet".
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The unread counts catch up when you come back to the page: an item read on another device, or while the phone app was in the background, no longer stays counted as unread until a reload.
+- A feed set to download 0 of its newest items downloads all of them, the whole back catalogue, as the server's 0 does; it downloaded nothing.
+- The feed list loads faster: it counts the items and files of your own feeds, not of every feed on the server, and asks for a group's title once, not once for every feed in it.
+- Downloading or deleting a file the server no longer has answers "not found" instead of a server error.
+- A feed's page in the Directory, and subscribing from it, no longer wait while the whole Directory is put together to check that the one feed is in it.
+- An episode that came as a torrent of several files plays its largest file, and can be deleted, by hand or to free space, instead of staying on disk for good.
+- Removing an account takes the feeds only that person read off the server, as unsubscribing does, instead of leaving them downloading every new episode for no one.
+- Freeing disk space counts only the people who subscribe to a feed: an episode is no longer taken as heard by everyone because someone who has since unsubscribed heard it, and their pins no longer keep files for good.
+- An episode whose file turns out to be a torrent shows as downloaded once it is, instead of being fetched again on every check of its feed, and no longer holds up the checking of other feeds while it downloads and seeds.
+- Downloading the latest 65 to 100 items of a feed queues them at once, instead of hanging until most had downloaded and holding up adding feeds and Refresh meanwhile.
+- Changes to the feed list made at the same moment, such as two people adding feeds, or a feed added while the server settings change, no longer undo one another.
+- A download that stops partway is given up after two minutes without data, instead of holding up every scan and download until a restart.
+- On a phone, the closed feed list no longer shades the left edge of the page with its shadow.
+- On an iPhone, the top bar's colour runs all the way up behind the status bar and the Dynamic Island, with no band of another colour above it. In Glass the bar is solid on a phone, in the colour its glass showed.
+- A feed's buttons stay on one row on a narrow phone, and the reader's buttons stay together instead of breaking across lines under a long feed name.
+- A moment's DNS failure no longer marks a feed as failing for a day or calls it gone: iPX tries it again in ten minutes. One failed lookup one morning left 205 podcasts unread, uncategorised and labelled gone until the next day. A name that does not resolve is said to be maybe gone, and only once it has been failing a day, on its Directory page as on its own.
+
+## [0.10.2] - 2026-10-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A publisher's correction to an item already in iPX, a retitled episode, mended text, new artwork or a fixed length, arrives on the next read. Since 0.9.1 an item kept what it first said: Ain't It Cool News's items each showed the text of the one before, long after the feed was fixed.
+- A feed's page in the Directory says when the feed is failing, and why, and no longer says nobody here subscribes to a feed someone does.
+
+## [0.10.1] - 2026-10-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A feed whose address answers with nothing, as a lapsed domain does behind a DNS filter's block page, shows as failing, with what to do about it, instead of as a show that has not posted yet.
+- The search box finds episodes in Currently Listening. It did nothing there.
+- `ipx add`, `ipx rm` and `ipx import`, run while the daemon runs, reach it at once. It kept its old list of feeds and wrote it back at its next change, undoing them.
+- On SQLite, several requests are answered at once instead of one at a time. With 25 people browsing, a page of a feed's items comes back in 10ms rather than 130.
+- On Postgres, a write no longer waits for the database server's disk. A scan read about one feed a second and now reads 1,500 in 20 seconds.
+- Checking every feed no longer makes every icon in the feed list flash while it runs: the list keeps the icons it has already drawn.
+
+### Security
+
+- A flood of sign-in attempts no longer stalls the site for everyone else. Passwords are checked a few at a time, away from the threads that answer every other request; forty wrong passwords at a time made everything else take four seconds.
+- A wrong password is refused in the same time whether or not the name is an account here, so how long it takes no longer tells anyone which names are.
+
+## [0.10.0] - 2026-10-05
+
+### Added
+
+- API tokens: in Settings, make a named token that lets a script or an agent use iPX as you, sent as `Authorization: Bearer`, and revoke it there. Each shows when it was last used.
+- In the Directory, a feed you do not subscribe to opens a page of its own: its cover, its category, how many people here subscribe, what the feed says it is, and its latest episodes or posts, with a button to subscribe. Before, only its subscribe button did anything.
+- Feeds that don't set a category, as most blogs don't, now get one automatically, so they show up under a category in the Directory. iPX picks the closest of Apple's podcast categories from the feed's title and latest headlines. This happens once per feed: the first time a new feed is read, or for a feed you already had, the next time you force a refresh. It needs `TYPESAFE_KEY` set. An admin can change the category in the feed's settings.
+- Artwork is kept on disk once shown and loads from iPX, not from each publisher's server: fast after the first time, and still there when the publisher's server is not. The admin page sets how much is kept (500 MB by default).
+- `ipx add --list --category News <url>` puts a feed in the Directory for anyone to subscribe to,
+  and it stays there when its last subscriber leaves. Run for a feed already in the catalogue,
+  it lists it or sets its category.
+- Feeds nobody subscribes to that are dead for a month or quiet for a year are removed, so the
+  Directory lists feeds worth taking.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The Directory is laid out as Apple's is. It opens on the ten most subscribed feeds, ranked, and the categories as tiles showing some of their shows' covers. A category opens a page of its own with its most subscribed feeds, its subcategories (Tech News under News, Video Games under Leisure) and its feeds; See all lists every one, A to Z, Z to A or by most subscribers. This replaces the grid of every feed under rows of category buttons, and Popular, which is gone from the feed list with its key, g p.
+- A pinned item in a list wears the same disc as a pinned feed, in the theme's accent, instead of a plain solid pin.
+- An item published without a title shows its opening words, in plain text rather than bold, instead of "(untitled)"; one with no text either shows its file's name, or its show and date. Opened, it starts with its text.
+- A feed that has moved for good (a permanent redirect) is followed to its new address, which iPX then reads from, and says so in the log as `feed_moved`. A temporary redirect changes nothing.
+- The daemon sleeps until the next feed is due, at most ten minutes, instead of looking every minute; refreshing or adding a feed still wakes it at once.
+- A pinned feed's pin sits on the corner of its artwork, as a failing feed's mark does, instead of before its name.
+- The Directory lists feeds nobody subscribes to yet; its most subscribed still lists what people subscribe to.
+  A feed nobody subscribes to is checked once a day, and at once when someone subscribes. A
+  listed feed downloads nothing until someone subscribes.
+- The Directory loads faster: it asked the database three questions per feed.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A database on SQLite, the default, no longer waits for the disk after nearly every write. On a slow disk a scan of 1,500 feeds took most of an hour and now takes half a minute. Postgres is unaffected.
+- The search box finds a feed in the Directory by name. It did nothing there.
+- Feeds that file themselves under Apple's Football or Soccer show under Sports, and those under the old Software How-To under Technology, instead of as categories of their own.
+- The download queue, in `ipx status`, `/api/status` and the dashboard, counts only what iPX will download on its own: older episodes beyond a show's limit, and files of feeds that do not download automatically, are listed but no longer counted as waiting.
+- Artwork published on http is stored on https when its host serves it there, so the page loads it directly; the rest still comes through iPX.
+- An iPhone adding the site to its home screen finds the icon at the first address it tries.
+- A feed whose server hangs no longer holds up every scan: a feed gets 30 seconds, and connecting anywhere 10.
+
+### Security
+
+- A feed's items and files reach only the people who subscribe to it. Anyone signed in could read any feed's items, a paid feed's included, with the addresses of its files, which can carry the subscriber's key, and could play, download or delete its files.
+
+## [0.9.1] - 2026-09-29
+
+### Added
+
+- `IPX_LOG_FORMAT=json` logs one JSON object a line, for Loki and the like: a request's method,
+  route, status and `duration_ms`, a scan's or download's details, a failure's kind in `error.type`
+  (and its HTTP status in `http.response.status_code`), and each line's `trace_id` and `span_id`.
+- With `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` set, the daemon sends traces of its scans, downloads and web
+  requests to a collector such as Tempo; a scan's shows the time each feed spends fetching, on its
+  artwork and in the database.
+- A feed with no artwork of its own, or whose artwork is missing, shows its website's icon, or the
+  site's `/favicon.ico`, and follows the site when it changes. It is asked for again only when the
+  artwork changes or you refresh the feed.
+- The refresh button turns while its feed is being checked, and the check-every-feed buttons
+  while any of yours is.
+- Adding a website's address, with or without `https://`, subscribes to the feed that site links.
+  An address is checked before it is added, and anything that is neither a feed nor a page linking
+  one is refused with the reason, instead of being added and failing on every check.
+- `/api/status` gives the number of feeds, items waiting to download and files downloaded, and
+  the version, for a dashboard such as Homepage.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The start-up line about the web UI being reachable off the machine says what guards it, and is a warning only when there is no Cloudflare Access in front of it.
+- The feed list updates just the feed that changed, as a scan checks it or you read an item, instead of reloading the whole list every minute.
+- A scan fetches several feeds at once, so a refresh no longer waits on every site in turn.
+- A feed that was failing when its last subscriber left is forgotten, rather than kept with its error for good. One that worked, or has files on disk, is kept as before.
+- A feed that keeps failing is checked less and less often, waiting as long as it has been failing, up to once a day; it goes back to its schedule as soon as it works. Refreshing it still checks it at once.
+- `ipx list` shows each feed's id on a line of its own, labelled, under its title.
+- Each browser keeps its own theme, so a phone and a desktop can differ. A browser that has not
+  chosen one yet starts from the theme your account had.
+- The Modern theme takes its colours from the new logo: its navy, the blue of its bars and the
+  orange of its needle.
+- The logo is in the top bar beside the add-feed button, in place of the name at the top of the
+  feed list, and left out on a phone, for the search box. It follows the page, dark in a dark theme
+  and light in a light one, as the browser tab's icon does, and hovering it shows iPX's version,
+  which says so between releases: 0.9.1-dev, not 0.9.0.
+- The logo's needle is a brighter, redder orange that stands apart from the blue bars.
+
+### Removed
+
+- `ipx copy-db`, the one-off move from SQLite to Postgres. Going back needs only the old `state.db`.
+- Starting up no longer looks for files downloaded twice before 0.6.0 read WordPress's player
+  links correctly; that clean-up has run.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A limit on new downloads per check means a show's newest episodes: with it set to 3, ipx no longer works back through the show's history three at a time. Set to 0, it still takes the whole back catalogue.
+- With no limit on new downloads per check (`max_new_per_check = 0`), downloads work on Postgres; they failed.
+- Checking a feed with a long history is much quicker: items already stored are no longer written again on every check.
+- The feed list loads several times faster: it was asking the database six questions per feed.
+- Artwork a feed offers only over plain http shows on the https site too.
+- A failing feed is easy to spot in any theme: a mark on its artwork, what is wrong in place of
+  its counts, and its artwork greyed out once it has failed for a day.
+- The log has no terminal colour codes when it is not going to a terminal, as in `docker logs`.
+- The read button shows whether an item is read, as the pin beside it shows whether it is
+  pinned: a tick when read, an envelope when not. It used to show the opposite.
+- In Directory and Popular, Subscribe is a plus again, not the tick that marks a feed you have.
+- A feed's refresh button looks like the buttons beside it, instead of standing out filled in.
+- Refreshing reads your feeds in full, instead of only asking each one whether it changed, so
+  a feed that has not changed is still read again.
+- Pulling the item list down to check for new items shows a spinner for a couple of seconds, and
+  a second pull meanwhile does nothing, instead of no sign at all that the check started.
+- Settings no longer lists the server's download folder, which only an admin can change, on
+  the admin page.
+- On the Unread tab, a swipe back (or k) goes to the item you just read, instead of past it or
+  back to the list. The items read on the way leave the Unread tab once you close the reader.
+
+## [0.9.0] - 2026-09-28
+
+### Added
+
+- A new logo, on every page, in the browser tab and on the home screen: the old radio's screen,
+  its tuning scale and orange needle, drawn flat to Apple's app icon guidelines, with a dark
+  version. The 2004 icon is still at /icon.png.
+- Words that hide items. Settings has a list for every feed you read, and each feed's settings a
+  list of its own; an item with one of those words or phrases in its title or text is hidden
+  from you and is not downloaded on your account. Other people's lists never hide anything from
+  you.
+- Share buttons for a feed, an item and a file. On a phone they open the system's share sheet;
+  elsewhere they copy the link. A link that looks like it carries your own access to a paid
+  feed asks before it goes anywhere.
+
+### Changed
+
+- iPodderX is now called iPX, on every page and in the tab. The repository is rays/ipx.
+- On a phone, iPodderX looks like an iOS app: filled round buttons and capsules instead of
+  outlined boxes, no rules between the bars and the page, the feed's name as a large title, a
+  segmented control for the tabs, taller rows with 17px text, and dialogs as sheets from the
+  bottom. Tapping a text box no longer zooms the page in. High contrast, and Increase Contrast,
+  keep their outlines.
+- The Glass theme's panels catch the light: a bright rim along the top and left edges, a fainter
+  one along the far edges, and a soft sheen from the top-left corner.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A new tab or home-screen icon shows up as soon as it is deployed, instead of a day later.
+- Opened from the home screen on an iPhone, the top bar, the reader's back button and the top
+  of the feed list keep clear of the Dynamic Island and the status bar instead of sitting under
+  them.
+- Swiping between items on a phone takes a quarter of the screen, so a diagonal scroll no longer
+  jumps ahead by accident, and no longer shows the item list through the reader: the next or
+  previous item sits beside the one you are reading and comes across with it, following your
+  finger, the end of the list says so, and swiping right from the first item draws the reader off
+  the list, dimmed until it is uncovered. A swipe from the screen's left edge stays with the page,
+  rather than Safari taking it as Back.
+
+## [0.8.4] - 2026-09-19
+
+### Added
+
+- A Glass theme, light and dark, with frosted see-through panels after Apple's Liquid Glass. It
+  goes solid when the system asks for less transparency or more contrast.
+- The page can hand playback to a native app. Opened inside an iOS or Android shell, an episode
+  plays through the host's own player instead of the page's, so it keeps going when the screen
+  locks and the car can control it; the player bar, the row buttons and the keyboard shortcuts
+  work as they always did. Video still plays in the page. In a browser nothing changes.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- On a phone, the bottom bar keeps clear of the home indicator, so the seek bar and the times are
+  no longer cut off when the page has the whole screen: in a native shell, or added to the iOS
+  home screen. In landscape the bars keep clear of the notch as well.
+
+## [0.8.3] - 2026-09-19
+
+### Security
+
+- The daemon no longer prints the web token when it starts, so it stays out of `docker logs`. It
+  says where the token is kept instead: `[web] token` in config.toml.
+- Signing in through Cloudflare Access can check the token Access signs: set `access_team` and
+  `access_aud` under `[web]`, and a request has to carry a valid `Cf-Access-Jwt-Assertion` as well as
+  the email header. Without it, anything on the same Docker host as ipx could send the header. See
+  docs/sso.md.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A Substack post shows its subtitle above the post, as Substack does. Only posts that arrive from
+  now on have it.
+
+## [0.8.2] - 2026-09-19
+
+### Added
+
+- Four themes, each in light and dark: Catppuccin (Latte and Mocha), Gruvbox, Solarized, and High
+  contrast, black and white with every colour at 7:1 or more.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The themes in Settings are listed in alphabetical order.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Links in Classic, and hints and headings in Modern's dark half, are dark or light enough to
+  read comfortably. A failed-action message is easier to read in every theme.
+
+## [0.8.1] - 2026-09-19
+
+### Changed
+
+- A feed being checked shows a small spinner in place of its unread count (and its folder's),
+  instead of toasts: no more "Scanning…" or "1 new" pop-ups, and none at all for feeds you do not read. A
+  "Downloaded" toast is only for a file on your screen.
+- "Check every feed" checks every feed you subscribe to, not every feed on the server.
+- The Classic theme is listed in Settings as just "Classic".
+- Settings and the keyboard shortcuts close from an X in their top corner, not a button at the bottom.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Unread counts, the unread dot and the Gone and Error tags are readable in every theme: several
+  light themes (Flat Remix, Paper, Adwaita, Nordic, Modern) drew them below AA contrast.
+- The sign-in page follows the system's light or dark setting, and fits a phone's screen instead of
+  drawing at desktop width.
+- In Classic, a selected item's play and delete buttons are white on the blue, not grey.
+- In Nordic's dark half, button and toolbar borders show.
+- A zero unread count on the selected feed no longer disappears into the selection.
+
+## [0.8.0] - 2026-09-18
+
+### Added
+
+- ipx can keep its data in Postgres: set `IPX_DATABASE_URL` to a `postgres://` URL. Without it,
+  it is the SQLite `state.db` as before. `ipx copy-db <state.db>` moves an existing database
+  across, everything in one go.
+- The catalogue of feeds and the server settings the admin page edits are kept in the database
+  rather than config.toml, which keeps where things are, the torrent settings and who may sign
+  in. The first start takes them from config.toml and trims it, keeping the original as
+  `config.toml.pre-database`; feeds added to config.toml after that are ignored, with a warning.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The database is reached through SeaORM, which is what lets it be SQLite or Postgres; on SQLite
+  nothing you see changes. On Postgres, sorting by title or feed follows the language's order (an
+  accented letter beside the plain one) rather than raw bytes. A database from before 0.7 has to
+  be opened by a 0.7 release first, which brings its tables up to date.
+
+## [0.7.0] - 2026-09-18
+
+### Added
+
+- Six more themes in Settings: Dracula, Material, Adwaita, Flat Remix, Paper and Nordic, beside
+  Classic and Modern (the existing dark and light). Each that comes both ways has its own Light,
+  Dark or Auto setting; Classic and Paper come one way only, so that setting is hidden for them.
+  A theme chosen before this carries over.
+- Your theme is kept on your account rather than in the browser, so it follows you to another
+  browser or computer, and the page arrives in it with no flash of the default. The theme a
+  browser already had is saved to your account the first time you load the page.
+- Pin a feed to the top of the feed list with the pin on its page, a feed from inside an OPML or
+  Patreon folder included, which comes out of the folder while pinned. Pins are yours alone.
+- Touch gestures: pull the item list down from its top to check the feed for new items, and
+  swipe the item you are reading left for the next one and right for the one before, or back
+  to the list from the first.
+- A favicon: the logo, squared up, also at /favicon.ico for browsers that ask there on their own,
+  and on white for an iPhone's home screen.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The server's settings, the accounts and the log are on their own admin page, /admin, reached by
+  the wrench in the header. Only an admin is sent the page, its script, or the link to it.
+  Settings is now yours alone: your theme and your subscriptions.
+- A feed that fails to check gets a red exclamation mark in the feed list, in the margin where a
+  folder's triangle sits, and its page says why, in place of a pop-up per failure that everyone
+  saw during a scan of every feed. A folder holding a failing feed has its triangle turn red.
+- The theme is chosen in Settings only; the button beside the iPodderX name is gone.
+- Add a feed asks only for the feed; Popular and Directory in the sidebar are where you browse.
+- On a phone, an item's files, with play and delete, sit above its show notes rather than below
+  them, where long notes left them looking missing.
+- On a phone, an item with no files goes straight to its text, without a box saying "No files".
+- The page is served minified, about a quarter smaller, with its script in a file of its own,
+  `/app.js`, which your browser keeps between visits and fetches again only when an update changes
+  it. The script is TypeScript in `web/src`, type-checked and built with swc; building ipx needs
+  node.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Switching tabs straight after marking everything read no longer shows the previous tab's
+  items: of two lists asked for at once, only the later one is shown.
+- The file icon of an item not yet downloaded sits level with the rest of its row, instead of
+  higher than a downloaded one's.
+- Images in posts from sites that refuse images to other sites' pages, such as Jeff Geerling's,
+  now show: ipx asks for them without saying it is the page showing them.
+- While an episode plays, its play buttons in the files pane, its row and the toolbar show
+  pause, as the player bar's does, and pause it when pressed.
+- An item you open stays read. A list refresh that crossed with marking it read could put its
+  unread dot back until the next refresh.
+- On the Unread tab, the item you were reading leaves the list as soon as you move to the next
+  one, rather than a few read items lingering until a refresh cleared them.
+- An image or link in a post given relative to the post, such as The Observation Deck's, now
+  points at the post's site rather than at ipx, and shows.
+
+## [0.6.1] - 2026-09-15
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Time left, and when an episode counts as finished, go by the length your player measured
+  rather than the feed's, which can be minutes out: one episode said 0:08 left with 2:33 to play.
+- A player left open in another tab or on another device no longer saves its older place over
+  where you have got to since, which could drop an episode out of Currently Listening.
+
+## [0.6.0] - 2026-09-15
+
+### Added
+
+- Each episode in Currently Listening has a cross that takes it off the list. It forgets where you
+  got to, so playing it again starts from the beginning.
+- An admin can give a feed a Directory category in its settings (`category` in config.toml), for
+  the blogs and other feeds that name none of their own. A feed's own iTunes category still wins.
+- Keyboard shortcuts after Feedly's: j and k through items, Shift-J and Shift-K through feeds,
+  g and a letter to go to a place, o to play, s to pin, and more. Press ? for the whole list.
+- Directory can be filtered to Podcasts or Blogs, and by each show's own iTunes category as a row
+  of chips, the narrower one where a show gives two (Games, not Leisure). The two combine, and
+  both filter in place.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Currently Listening marks the episode in the player with the EQ bars, as the item list does,
+  and its progress and time left move as it plays. Each row says how much is left.
+- Directory shows each feed as its cover art in a grid, title and subscriber count underneath,
+  instead of a list. Popular and the Add a feed dialog keep their rows.
+- The pages are set in Inter, served by ipx itself. Classic keeps Lucida Grande.
+- Keeping an item is now pinning it: a thumbtack in place of the flag, and Pin, Pinned and Unpin
+  in place of Keep, Kept and Stop keeping. A pinned item is still never deleted.
+- Currently Listening is its own place in the feed list, below Popular, instead of a section at
+  the bottom of the Popular page.
+- The first scan after upgrading fetches every feed in full once, on its usual schedule, so each
+  picks up its category without waiting for the publisher to change something.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- An episode that fails to load, or is paused before it has, no longer forgets where you left off
+  in it, and so no longer drops out of Currently Listening.
+- Currently Listening lists the episodes you have started. It left out anything marked read, and
+  opening an episode marks it read, so it usually showed nothing. An episode now leaves the list
+  once 90% of it has played.
+- A WordPress post that embeds the file it encloses no longer lists, and downloads, that file
+  twice. Items that already had it twice are folded into one at startup, and the spare copy
+  deleted.
+- The pinned column's heading lines up with the pins under it, and every heading sits a pixel
+  further right, over its column.
+- The feeds left behind by an OPML subscription removed before ipx retired them are cleared at
+  startup: forgotten if nothing was downloaded, kept as orphaned if something was. Feeds from it
+  that have since been given their own settings stay as they are, with their items. Removing an
+  OPML or Patreon subscription no longer deletes the items of a feed inside it that has its own
+  settings.
+- Titles that arrive as HTML, such as The Verge's, no longer show their entities as text:
+  "Meta&#8217;s" reads "Meta’s". Titles already stored are corrected the next time their feed
+  changes.
+
+## [0.5.5] - 2026-09-14
+
+### Changed
+
+- A feed whose site sends a message instead of the feed, such as "Unable to establish a DB
+  connection", now shows that message and is flagged as the publisher's problem, instead of two
+  parser errors about reaching the end of input.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Add a feed opened over Directory or Popular now shows its Popular list instead of staying on
+  "Loading…", and no longer cuts the Directory behind it down to ten.
+
+## [0.5.4] - 2026-09-14
+
+### Added
+
+- Currently Listening, below Popular: episodes you started and have not finished, across every
+  feed you subscribe to. Tap one to pick up where you left off.
+- Theme has an Auto option, alongside Dark, Light and Classic, that follows your system's
+  light/dark setting. All four are now also in Settings, as a dropdown next to the header
+  button's one-click-at-a-time toggle -- the same setting either way.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The feed (or Directory/Popular/All Subscriptions) and the tab you had open are remembered
+  across a reload or a new visit. A feed you no longer subscribe to, or a first visit with
+  nothing remembered yet, lands on All Subscriptions instead of the first feed alphabetically.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- On iOS, the topbar (the hamburger menu included) could stop responding to taps until a hard
+  refresh. The page sized itself with `100vh`, which iOS Safari measures against the address
+  bar's collapsed state rather than what is actually visible; `100dvh` tracks the real viewport
+  as the bar shows and hides.
+
+## [0.5.3] - 2026-09-14
+
+### Added
+
+- A feed that has been failing for a day shows a plain-English reason in the sidebar and on its
+  own page, sorted from a 404, a 401/403, a 402, a name that no longer resolves, or a web page in
+  place of the feed -- with Unsubscribe or, when the page links its new feed, Use the new address.
+  A feed that fails once and reads fine again within a day is never flagged.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Unsubscribing from the last person's OPML or Patreon subscription now retires the feeds it
+  listed, the same as a feed the list itself drops: removed if nothing was downloaded, kept and
+  marked orphaned otherwise. Until now they stayed in the database and kept being scanned hourly
+  with auto-download on, which is how 922 defunct `davewiner` feeds outlived the OPML that listed
+  them.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- A feed whose XML uses a bare `&` instead of `&amp;` (kcpw, both feedland feeds) is now read
+  instead of refused.
+- A feed URL that now serves a web page says so, and names the feed the page links to when it has
+  one, instead of a raw XML parser error.
+- A publisher answering with an empty body (British Antarctic Survey's 202) is read as nothing new
+  to report, not a parse failure.
+- A link in an item's show notes opens in a new tab instead of navigating away from ipx.
+- A video file plays as video, in a small floating pane above the player bar, instead of silently
+  as sound only.
+- On the Unread tab, opening an item no longer makes it disappear from the list -- it stays until
+  you open a different one, even if a scan finishes and refreshes the list while it is open.
+- Subscribe and Unsubscribe have their own icons (a circled check and a circled minus) instead of
+  sharing the generic plus and minus used for adding feeds, users and imports.
+- Settings no longer disappears for a non-admin account. It was hiding the whole Settings modal
+  along with the log and the users screen, but a non-admin has settings of their own in there --
+  their subscriptions' Export and Import, and the schedule and quota are worth seeing even without
+  a say in them. Only the log and the users screen, which the server also refuses them, are gone.
+
+## [0.5.2] - 2026-09-12
+
+### Added
+
+- Settings → Users and `ipx user list` show when each account was added and when it last signed
+  in, to the hour.
+- `ipx user rename <name> <new name>` renames an account and keeps its feeds, read state and admin
+  rights. An account made before the proxy was set up can take the name the proxy signs it in as.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Directory and Popular list the feeds inside an OPML one by one, and no longer the OPML itself,
+  so you can subscribe to just the shows you want.
+- The database no longer records when subscriptions and sign-in sessions were created. Nothing
+  ever read it, and an existing database drops the columns on its next start.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Show notes that the podcast's host cut off in the middle of a tag no longer open with a scrap of
+  HTML: the item's other copy of its notes is used instead, from the next time the feed changes.
+  Daily Meditation Podcast had 57.
+- Docker no longer shows ipodderx as starting, or calls it unhealthy, while it scans or downloads:
+  `ipx status` answers at once instead of waiting for the job in progress to finish.
+- Signing out after signing in through Cloudflare Access no longer lands on ipodderx's own password
+  page. With the new `sign_out_url` set, Sign out ends the Access session, and the password page
+  sends anyone the proxy signs in straight to their feeds.
+- The sign-in guide, `docs/sso.md`, describes the setup ipodderx.sdf1.net really runs: Authentik as
+  Cloudflare Access's identity provider, and how to find the address ipx has to trust. It had never
+  been checked against a real setup, and pointed at the wrong address.
+
+## [0.5.1] - 2026-09-12
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The triangle that opens an OPML or Patreon folder was cramped against the folder's art. It has
+  more room now, and a wider target to click.
+
+## [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, unsubscribe and scan; play, mark
+  read and keep for the selected item, showing its state; 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. 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; its size is in KB for small files instead of "0 MB".
+- 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, one meaning per icon: minus unsubscribes,
+  x closes or cancels, plus adds or subscribes, a dialog's confirm button carries the icon of what
+  it does, Keep is a flag, as it was in the original, mark unread is an envelope, and Subscribed is
+  a green check. 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 words and font characters such as
+  ⟳ ⤓ ↗, which came out thin and tiny and differed from font to font, and the feed header's x for
+  unsubscribe, which read as closing the page.
+- An OPML subscription's page has the same header as a feed's, with its buttons in the same places.
+
+### 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 something that is not OPML answered `500`. It is now `400` "that is not an OPML file",
+  refused before anything changes.
+
+### 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. Opening an item marks it
+  read; playing it marks it read only at the end or past 90%.
+- 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`), set by an
+  admin, as are the global settings.
+- `[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
+
+- Feeds from an OPML live in the database, not `config.toml`.
+- Torrents run detached, two at a time.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The daemon ignored SIGTERM until the current download finished.
+- A torrent could freeze scanning for up to an hour.
+- Image enclosures were downloaded as episodes.
+- A feed whose entries had been deleted stayed empty, because the server kept answering `304`.
+- An item with several enclosures kept only the last.
+
+### 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/`.

+//! sooner without sounding sped up.
+//!
+//! Nothing is copied (#181). DeadAir finds a file's silences once, in the background, and keeps a
+//! `Plan` for each pause length a person can choose (#182): the frames kept, as byte ranges of
+//! the original. The player gets an HLS playlist of those ranges (`playlist`), which Safari plays
+//! itself and other browsers through hls.js, with no gap at the cuts. Seeking past each silence
+//! instead left about 1.3 s of nothing at every one (#178); a copy made with ffmpeg cost as much
+//! disk again as the original and could only have one pause length.
+//!
+//! Positions stay in the original's time. What a plan leaves out is stored as `Cut`s of the
+//! original's time, and the server converts both ways (`to_copy`, `to_original`): the iOS and
+//! Android apps save positions themselves, from their own player, so converting in the page
+//! would miss them.

 # 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.
+Three services, each a container of its own with its own version and changelog (#207):
+
+| Service | What it is | Source | Image |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| ipx-web | Caddy: serves the page, a static site built from `web/`, and passes `/api` and `/media` to ipx on the same address. It asks ipx before it serves the app or the admin page (`/api/page-check`) | `web/`, `web/Caddyfile` | `Dockerfile.web` |
+| ipx | The daemon and CLI, one binary. `ipx daemon` runs a scheduler, a Unix-socket control server and the HTTP API in one process; everything else is a CLI that either does the work itself or hands it to a running daemon | `crates/ipx` | `Dockerfile` |
+| ipx-directory | The directory of public podcasts that ipx servers share. ipx asks it on its people's behalf; the page never talks to it ([directory.md](directory.md)) | `crates/directory` | `Dockerfile.directory` |
+
+The Rust source is a Cargo workspace (#202); `crates/feed` (`ipx-feed`) fetches and parses feeds
+for both Rust services. Versions: ipx's in `crates/ipx/Cargo.toml`, the directory's in
+`crates/directory/Cargo.toml`, the page's in `package.json`; CLAUDE.md has the release steps.
+
+## Traces and logs
+
+A request is one trace (#213). The page starts one for each tap and sends `traceparent` with its
+requests (#190); Caddy's span continues it and passes it on to ipx; ipx's request span, its steps
+and its calls to the directory follow, and the directory's request span joins it. Scans,
+downloads, DeadAir's work, shares with the directory and the directory's refresher rounds are
+traces of their own. All three log one JSON object a line, for Loki; ipx's lines carry their trace
+id, and Caddy's request lines theirs. ipx also serves Prometheus metrics (`[web] metrics_bind`,
+#194). The exporter and the `traceparent` handling both Rust services use are in
+`crates/directory/src/otel.rs`.
 
 ## Modules
 
 | File | Responsibility | What it replaced in the Python |

+# The directory
+
+`ipx-directory` is a catalogue of public podcasts and blogs that ipx servers share (#204). An ipx
+server sends it the public feeds its people subscribe to, and how many of them do. The directory
+fetches each feed's title, artwork, category, description and latest twenty items every twelve hours,
+and any server holding a token can browse it. It never downloads a file, and it never stores
+one's address: every ipx server still fetches its own feeds.
+
+This server's is at `https://directory.ipxreader.app` (until 2026-10-12 `ipx-dir.sdf1.net`, #214), the `ipx-directory` service of the Arcane project
+`ipx`, with its database `ipx_directory` on the `databases` project's Postgres.
+
+## In ipx
+
+An admin sets it up in **Admin, Directory**: the directory's address, the token its operator gave
+this server, and whether to share. ipx asks the directory on its people's behalf, so the page never
+talks to it and never sees the token or a feed's address. With no directory set up, the Directory
+says so and feeds are added by their address.
+
+ipx keeps the address and token with its other server settings, in its database (`settings`,
+`directory_url` and `directory_token`), not in config.toml. The token is written, never shown
+again: the tab says it is set and offers to clear it. To replace one, make a new token on the
+directory, paste it over the old, then delete the old token's entry from the directory's config.
+
+With sharing on, ipx sends its snapshot when what it would send has changed (checked after every
+scan, and whenever the catalogue or these settings change), and every half hour regardless (#211): each feed checked at least once, with how many people here subscribe,
+and the category an admin gave a feed that names none. It never sends an OPML or a Patreon creator
+itself (their feeds go instead), or a private feed. A feed's settings have a **Private** switch for
+a paid feed iPX does not recognise by its address; anyone subscribed may turn it on, and only an
+admin off.
+
+When this server's token is `rwa`, its admins administer the directory from iPX (#206). A feed's
+page in the Directory has **Check now** and **Remove from the directory**, which blocks it so no
+server's snapshot brings it back. Admin, Directory lists the **Servers** sharing, by token name,
+with how many feeds and subscribers each gave, and **Blocked**, by title, with Unblock. Dropping a
+server's snapshot takes its feeds and counts out until it next shares; to keep a server out,
+revoke its token. An admin's own subscriptions open as their feeds, not as Directory pages, so
+removing one of those is done by marking it private, or from another admin's account.
+
+## In a web browser
+
+Anyone may browse it at its address, no token and no sign-in (#215): the most subscribed, the
+categories, every feed A to Z, a search by name, and a page for each feed with its description,
+its latest items and its address, with a Copy button, to subscribe to in any podcast app or feed
+reader. The pages only read: nothing in them changes the directory. They are rendered by the
+directory itself from what the API serves, with the publisher's HTML shown as text, an item's link
+only when it is http(s), and a Content-Security-Policy that allows the site's own script and
+stylesheet and the covers, which load from their publishers. `/v1` is the API and still needs a
+token for everything.
+
+## Tokens
+
+Everything but `/healthz` needs a token, sent as `Authorization: Bearer <token>`. Each one has a
+name and one of three levels of access:
+
+| | browse | send snapshots | remove, block, refresh feeds; drop a server's snapshot |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `ro` | yes | | |
+| `rw` | yes | yes | |
+| `rwa` | yes | yes | yes |
+
+Tokens are in the config file and nowhere else, and no level of access can make or revoke one
+over the API. To make one:
+
+```sh
+docker exec ipx-directory ipx-directory token new <name> --access ro|rw|rwa
+```
+
+It prints the token, to give to whoever it is for, and the lines to add to the config file. The file
+holds the token's SHA-256, never the token. The directory reads the file again within a minute of
+a change, so adding a token and revoking one (deleting its entry) need no restart. A revoked token
+also takes the counts its server sent. A file that does not load (a misspelled `access`, two tokens
+with one name) leaves the tokens as they were, and the log says why.
+
+## The config file
+
+`/config/directory.toml` in the container (`DIRECTORY_CONFIG`, or `--config`), on Tower
+`/mnt/fast/appdata/ipx-directory/directory.toml`:
+
+```toml
+bind = "0.0.0.0:8100"
+# Prometheus metrics, on a port of their own and not the one the tunnel publishes. Empty, or
+# left out, serves none.
+metrics_bind = "0.0.0.0:9188"
+# Apple Podcasts' top charts for this country, weekly (see below). Empty, or left out: none.
+apple_country = "ca"
+# Internal addresses and networks feeds may be fetched from, as ["10.0.0.5", "192.168.1.0/24"].
+# Empty, or left out: nothing off the public internet is fetched (#329).
+fetch_internal = []
+# The environment variable holding the database URL: postgres://... or sqlite://...
+database_url_env = "DIRECTORY_DATABASE_URL"
+
+[[tokens]]
+name = "tower"
+access = "rwa"
+token_sha256 = "…"
+```
+
+`DIRECTORY_LOG_FORMAT=json` logs one JSON object a line, for Loki, as ipx's `IPX_LOG_FORMAT` does.
+Each request is a line with its `method`, `path`, `status`, `duration_ms` and the `token`'s name.
+
+With `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` set (`http://host:4318`, OTLP over HTTP), it sends traces: a
+span a request, a child of the caller's when the request carries a `traceparent`, as ipx's do, and
+a trace a refresher round with a span a feed (#213). `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` tags them, as
+production does with `deployment.environment.name=production`. Its version is in
+`crates/directory/Cargo.toml`, logged at start and answered by `ipx-directory --version`; its
+changelog is `crates/directory/CHANGELOG.md`.
+
+## Apple Podcasts
+
+With `apple_country` set, the directory takes Apple Podcasts' top charts for that country once a
+week (#252): the top 100 overall and the top 50 of each of Apple's categories, about a thousand
+shows. Apple's lookup API gives each one's RSS address, and they go in as a snapshot of their own,
+`apple-podcasts`, with no subscribers: fetched, sorted into categories and listed like any other
+feed, while the most subscribed stay what the servers sharing here subscribe to. A show Apple drops
+from its charts leaves the directory at the next sync, unless a server shares it. An admin can drop
+the snapshot as any server's (`DELETE /v1/instances/apple-podcasts`); the next sync brings it back.
+No token may be named `apple-podcasts`.
+
+The same sync compares Apple's list of categories with the one ipx keeps (`CATEGORIES` in
+`crates/feed`) and logs a warning naming what differs, for whoever checks the log to update it.
+It runs at start when the last sync is a week old, and a failed one tries again an hour later. Each
+sync is a trace (`apple_sync`, a span for each of Apple's answers), and a line `Apple Podcasts
+synced` says how many shows came and went in.
+
+## Running one
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  ipx-directory:
+    image: ipx-directory          # docker build -f Dockerfile.directory -t ipx-directory .
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    environment:
+      DIRECTORY_DATABASE_URL: "postgres://ipx_directory:password@db-host:5432/ipx_directory"
+    ports:
+      - "8100:8100"
+    volumes:
+      - ./directory:/config:ro    # directory.toml
+```
+
+## What it will not hold
+
+A private feed is never meant to reach it. ipx leaves out a feed marked private, one with a
+username or password, and one whose address `ipx_feed::url_looks_private` catches: a paid-feed
+host, or a key in the query. The directory checks every address it is sent with the same function
+and refuses what it catches, so one server's miss does not publish someone's paid feed to every
+other. What both miss, an `rwa` token can remove: `DELETE /v1/feeds/{id}` removes the feed and
+blocks it, so no snapshot brings it back.
+
+## API
+
+| Route | Access | |
+|---|---|---|
+| `GET /healthz` | none | `ok` when it can read its database |
+| `GET /v1/me` | ro | the token's `name` and `access` |
+| `GET /v1/feeds` | ro | every feed A to Z: `id`, `url`, `title`, `image`, `category`, `subcategory`, `podcast`, `subscribers` |
+| `GET /v1/popular?limit=10` | ro | the most subscribed, at most 100 |
+| `GET /v1/feeds/{id}` | ro | one feed, with `description`, `failing` (why its last check failed, in words) and its latest twenty `items` (`guid`, `title`, `link`, `published`, `duration`, `description`), never their files |
+| `POST /v1/snapshot` | rw | `[{"url", "subscribers"}]`, at most 20,000: replaces everything this token sent before; answers what it `accepted` and how many it refused as private, blocked or invalid |
+| `DELETE /v1/feeds/{id}` | rwa | remove and block |
+| `GET /v1/blocked`, `DELETE /v1/blocked/{id}` | rwa | what is blocked; unblock |
+| `GET /v1/instances` | rwa | each token holding a snapshot: its `name`, `feeds` and `subscribers` |
+| `DELETE /v1/instances/{name}` | rwa | drop one token's snapshot, its counts with it |
+| `POST /v1/feeds/{id}/refresh` | rwa | fetch the feed now, answering with its page |
+
+A feed's `id` is the first 64 bits of the SHA-256 of its address, normalised (scheme and host in
+lower case, no default port or fragment), so every server arrives at the same id. `subscribers`
+is the sum over every token's latest snapshot. A feed is listed once the directory has read it as
+a feed, so an OPML or an address that never worked is not, and goes when no snapshot has it any more. Descriptions
+are the feed's own HTML, unsanitized: whoever shows them sanitizes them, as ipx does.

+# Signals
+
+A Signal is a feed someone makes from their own subscriptions (#254). They give it a name, the
+words to listen for (`formula 1`, `f1`) and, when those are not enough, a sentence saying what they
+mean (#259). TypeSafe's Jev reads each item of the feeds they subscribe to and picks out the ones
+about that subject: the name, the words and the sentence together, not any one word. Those items show in the Signal as well as in their
+own feed. The rest stays noise, where it was.
+
+Whose TypeSafe key pays for Jev is the admin's choice (#271), under Admin, Server, **Signals for
+everyone, on this server's TypeSafe key** (`signals_on_server`):
+
+- **On**, with the server's key in `TYPESAFE_KEY`: everyone has Signals, with nothing to set up.
+  Every item is asked about on the server's key, and keys people saved are kept but not used.
+- **Off**, the default, or on with no `TYPESAFE_KEY`: each person turns Signals on in Settings
+  with a key of their own. Nothing is judged for someone without one, and their Signals folder is
+  not shown.
+
+Jev is asked once for each item, on that key, with one question for each of the person's Signals
+that has not heard about the item yet.
+
+## What someone sees
+
+- **The sidebar.** Once Signals are on for someone, a Signals folder comes first in the feed list, under All Subscriptions (#255,
+  #256). It is closed or open as an OPML's folder is, remembered in each browser. Its row is like
+  any folder's (#265); New signal is the + on the folder's page. Inside the folder are the
+  person's Signals, each with its items and unread counted under its name.
+- **An icon of its own** (#261), chosen in the Signal's dialog from all of Font Awesome Free 7.3.1,
+  the set the page's own icons come from: 2,883 icons, solid, regular and brands, searched by name
+  and Font Awesome's search terms ("ai" finds the robot). Without one, a Signal shows its initials.
+  **Auto** asks Jev to choose (#263), and a Signal made without an icon gets Jev's pick by
+  itself, a moment after it is made. Every Signal's tile is in the accent tint the folder has.
+- **Each Signal's row** says "12 items · 3 unread", as a feed's row counts its own.
+- **The folder's page** lists the Signals, with the + for a new one.
+- **A Signal's page** is an ordinary item list: All, Unread, Downloaded and Pinned, search and sort.
+  Its header says what it listens for (the sentence, or the words), and, on people's own keys,
+  that nothing is picked out without one. Edit changes the name, the words or the sentence; Delete removes the Signal
+  and leaves the items in their feeds.
+- **Read state is the item's.** Reading an item in a Signal reads it in its feed, and the other way
+  round. The counts follow without a reload (#258).
+- **Settings, Signals.** On the server's key, a line saying the server pays. On people's own, a
+  Signals switch: turning it on shows a password field for the key, which saves on leaving the
+  field once TypeSafe has taken it (one short question on that key); a key TypeSafe refuses is
+  not saved, and the page says so. Turning the switch off, or the bin, forgets the key and hides
+  the folder; the Signals are kept. The key is never sent back to the page, which only learns
+  whether one is set.

+
+The judge is a task of its own beside DeadAir's (`crates/ipx/src/signals.rs`), not a job on the
+scan worker, so a slow TypeSafe never holds up a scan.
+
+### Which items are asked about
+
+`Db::unjudged` finds, newest first, up to 50 items that are:
+
+- in a feed the Signal's owner subscribes to,
+- not hidden from them by their block lists,
+- for someone with a key that TypeSafe has not refused since the daemon started,
+- and either published (or, with no date, first seen) in the look-back window and not yet in
+  `signal_verdicts` for that Signal, or picked out by it before it was edited (`recheck`), however
+  old.
+
+The window is the admin's, Admin, Server, **Signals look back (days)** (`signal_days`, 7 by
+default, 1 to 365; #276): each item in it is a call, and a month of production's feeds was about
+8,000. So a new Signal looks back that far, and after that sees each new item. A show subscribed
+to today has its back catalogue skipped, apart from the window.
+
+The recent half reads the index `entries_recent`, on each feed's items by date, the expression it
+is asked by; without it each wake read all of `entries`, 605 MB, 566 ms to find nothing (#274).
+
+Rows for one item and one person are grouped, so an item is one call whatever the number of
+Signals. Two people's Signals never share a call, even on the server's key, where they did until
+#343: one person's description was then in the question that decided the other's verdicts. Up to ten calls are in flight at once (`IN_FLIGHT`): one at a time, about 150 ms
+each, a month of items took twenty minutes. Every call to Jev, Signals', icons' and key checks',
+takes a turn (`pace`, #277): TypeSafe's default limits are 80 requests and 100,000 input tokens a
+second, and ipx keeps to 60 and 80,000, each call holding the line for a 60th of a second or its
+guessed tokens' share, whichever is longer. A 429 holds every call back for its `Retry-After`, or
+a second, and ends the pass. Each `jev` span says how long it waited (`paced_ms`), and
+`ipx_jev_paced_seconds_total` adds them up; the dashboard draws calls and tokens a second against
+the limits. A full batch means there may be more, and the next pass
+starts at once. Otherwise the judge sleeps until woken or for 5 minutes.
+
+### Every answer is kept
+
+`signal_verdicts` records each answer, fitting or not. An item with no row has not been asked yet;
+an item with a row is never asked again. So the cost is one call per item per person, once.
+Changing a Signal's name, words or sentence marks what it picked out to be asked again
+(`recheck`), and those stay in its list until answered; what it passed over stays passed over, and
+new items are asked the new question as they come (#276). The first start with sentences (#259) deleted every verdict, since they answered the
+old question.
+
+## TypeSafe
+
+Jev is TypeSafe's System One model, already used to pick a feed's Directory category
+(`feed::classify`). The address is `feed::JEV_URL`, `https://api.typesafe.ai/v1/systemone`.
+Signals use the **noul** question type, which answers how likely a statement is true, from 0 to 1.
+Questions in one call are judged independently and in parallel.
+
+### A request
+
+Sent with `Authorization: Bearer <the key>`, the server's or the person's, for an item and two of their Signals:
+
+```json
+{
+  "model": "jev-latest",
+  "state": "Feed: Pit Lane\nTitle: Monaco qualifying\n\nQualifying report from the Monaco Grand Prix.",

+      "instructions": "The reader follows a subject they call \"F1\", described by these words: formula 1, f1. Is this item about that subject?",
+      "criteria": {
+        "true": "The item's main subject is that subject, as the name, the words and the reader's description together describe it.",
+        "false": "It is about something else, or touches the subject only in passing."

+        "false": "It is about something else, or touches the subject only in passing."
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+- `state` is text: the feed's title, the item's title, and its show notes with the HTML taken out,
+  cut to 1,000 characters (`TEXT_CHARS`). It was 2,000 until #275: on 55 real items and six
+  Signals, 1,000 changed none of 330 verdicts and saved 12% of the input tokens (1,266 to 1,112 a
+  call); 500 changed one. Most of the input is the questions themselves, not the item.
+- Each question is keyed `signal_<id>`, and its answer comes back under the same key.

+
+```json
+{
+  "model": "jev-1.13.0",
+  "answers": {
+    "signal_3": { "type": "noul", "noul": 0.96 },
+    "signal_4": { "type": "noul", "noul": 0.02 }
+  },
+  "usage": { "input_tokens": 389, "output_tokens": 40 }
+}
+```
+
+0.5 or more is a fit (`THRESHOLD`): the item goes into Signal 3 and not Signal 4. A question
+missing from the answer is left unjudged and asked again next pass.
+
+### When TypeSafe says no
+
+| TypeSafe answers | What the judge does |
+|---|---|
+| 401, 402, 403, on the server's key | Everyone's key is refused. The pass ends and the queue waits for the next one, five minutes on. Logged: "TypeSafe refused the server's key for Signals". |
+| 401, 402, 403, on a person's key | The key is refused. That person is passed over until they save a key or the daemon restarts, so a bad key is not sent the whole queue. Logged once: "TypeSafe refused a Signal key". |
+| 400, 422 | The request itself is wrong, so every item's would be. The pass ends; the items wait for the next one. Logged: "TypeSafe refused a Signals request as malformed", with TypeSafe's reason. |
+| 429 | Over TypeSafe's limits. Every call waits for `Retry-After` or a second; the pass ends, what was in flight kept, and the rest wait for the next. Logged once: "TypeSafe asked Signals to slow down". |
+| anything else, or no answer | That item is left unjudged and asked again next pass. Logged: "Jev could not judge an item". |

+
+## The API
+
+Every route is the signed-in person's own. A Signal of someone else's is not found, as one that
+does not exist.
+
+### `GET /api/signals`
+
+```json
+[
+  { "id": 1, "name": "AI Development", "keywords": ["ai", "development", "programming"],
+    "description": "AI tools for writing software: coding agents, AI dev tools, vibe coding, AI in code review.",
+    "icon": "solid/laptop-code", "items": 48, "unread": 5 },
+  { "id": 2, "name": "Apple", "keywords": ["apple", "mac", "iphone"], "description": null, "icon": null, "items": 272, "unread": 0 }
+]
+```
+
+`items` counts the items Jev picked out that are still in a subscribed feed and not hidden, what
+its list shows; `unread` those of them not read.
+
+### `POST /api/signals`
+
+```json
+{ "name": "Formula 1", "keywords": ["formula 1", "f1"], "description": "Grand prix racing, not road cars." }
+```
+
+Answers `{ "id": 3 }` and wakes the judge. A name is 1 to 100 characters. Between 1 and 50 words
+are allowed, each up to 200 characters, kept once whatever their case. `description` is optional,
+up to 500 characters. Anything else is a `400` saying so.
+
+### `PATCH /api/signals/{id}`
+
+Any of the three: `{ "name": "F1" }`, `{ "keywords": ["f1", "grand prix"] }`,
+`{ "description": null }` (null or empty clears it), `{ "icon": "solid/robot" }`. A change to the
+name, words or sentence drops the Signal's verdicts and wakes the judge, since each is part of the
+question; a new icon does not. The page sends only what changed. An icon is `solid/`, `regular/` or
+`brands/` and a plain name, since the page puts it into an address: anything else is a `400`. Answers `204`, or `404` for a Signal that is not yours.
+
+### `DELETE /api/signals/{id}`
+
+Answers `204`. The Signal and its verdicts go; the items stay in their feeds.
+
+### `GET /api/signals/{id}/entries`
+
+The same query as a feed's list, `offset`, `limit`, `filter`, `q`, `sort`, `dir`:
+
+```
+GET /api/signals/3/entries?filter=unread&sort=published&dir=desc&limit=50
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "total": 1,
+  "entries": [
+    {
+      "guid": "sig-1", "feed_id": "pit-lane", "title": "Monaco qualifying",
+      "link": "https://pitlane.example/monaco", "published": 1792170000,
+      "description": "<p>Qualifying report…</p>", "read": false, "flagged": false,
+      "image": null, "duration": null, "episode": null, "season": null, "position": 0,
+      "enclosures": []
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Reading or pinning one is the item's own route, `POST /api/entries/{feed_id}/{guid}/flags`, as
+anywhere else.
+
+### `PATCH /api/me`, the key
+
+```json
+{ "typesafe_key": "ts_…" }
+```
+
+A string is checked with TypeSafe, by one short question on that key, then saved, and the judge
+tries it again. `null` or an empty string forgets it. A key is up to 500 printable characters.
+A key TypeSafe refuses is a `400` ("TypeSafe did not accept that key") and not saved; TypeSafe not
+answering is a `502`, and the key is not saved either. `GET /api/me` says `"typesafe_key_set":
+true` and nothing more about the key, and `"signals": "server"` or `"own"`, whose key is used.
+
+### `PATCH /api/settings`, who pays
+
+An admin's `{ "signals_on_server": true }` judges everyone's Signals on `TYPESAFE_KEY`, and
+`false` on each person's own. `GET /api/settings` has `signals_on_server` and
+`typesafe_server_key`, whether the server has a key to use; without one the setting changes
+nothing. A change wakes the judge and lets keys refused before be tried again.
+
+### `POST /api/signals/icon`
+
+Jev's pick of an icon, on the **server's** `TYPESAFE_KEY`, not the person's: it is the page's own
+doing, once a Signal. Jev chooses among options and cannot name one, so the page searches Font
+Awesome's index for each word of the name, words and sentence, the best six each, and sends up to 40:
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "AI Development",
+  "keywords": ["ai", "development", "programming"],
+  "description": "AI tools for writing software: coding agents, AI dev tools, vibe coding, AI in code review.",
+  "candidates": [["solid/robot", "Robot: ai, android, bot, machine"], ["solid/laptop-code", "Laptop Code: computer, cpu, dell, demo"], ["solid/code", "Code: brackets, code, development, html"]]
+}
+```
+
+ipx asks a **choice** question, each candidate a choice and its label and terms what it means:
+
+```json
+{
+  "model": "jev-latest",
+  "state": "Signal: AI Development\nListens for: ai, development, programming\nIn their words: AI tools for writing software: coding agents, AI dev tools, vibe coding, AI in code review.",
+  "questions": { "icon": {
+    "type": "choice",
+    "instructions": "Which icon best stands for this subject in a list of the reader's topics?",
+    "criteria": { "solid/robot": "Robot: ai, android, bot, machine", "solid/laptop-code": "Laptop Code: computer, cpu, dell, demo" }
+  } }
+}
+```
+
+TypeSafe answered, on 2026-10-16, for six candidates:
+
+```json
+{ "model": "jev-1.13.0", "answers": { "icon": { "type": "choice", "choice": "solid/laptop-code", "confidence": 0.34,
+  "probabilities": { "solid/robot": 0.4, "solid/code": 0.14, "solid/laptop-code": 0.45, "solid/brain": 0.01, "solid/microchip": 0.0, "solid/terminal": 0.0 } } } }
+```
+
+The answer is `{ "icon": "solid/laptop-code" }`, only ever one it was offered. Each candidate has to
+be an icon name the API takes, 1 to 60 of them. `404` when the server has no key, `502` when Jev
+fails (logged: "Jev could not pick an icon"). The call has a `jev_icon` span.
+
+### The event
+
+Once a pass, for each person it found items for, the judge sends this on the event stream
+(`/api/events`):
+
+```json
+{ "ev": "signal_hits", "user": 2, "hits": 3 }
+```
+
+A page with Signals fetches `/api/signals` again, and the open Signal's list.

+- `signals` and `signal_verdicts` are created from their entities like every table
+  (`crates/ipx/src/entity.rs`). `users.typesafe_key`, `signals.description` and `signals.icon`
+  were added to existing tables, so `create_missing` adds each column when it is missing.
+- The icons are files of ipx-web's, not the database's: `web/build.mjs` copies Font Awesome Free's
+  SVGs to `/icons/<style>/<name>.svg`, kept a day, and writes `/icons/index.json`, names, labels
+  and search terms, about 90 KB compressed, named by its hash and fetched when the picker first
+  opens. A Signal's tile draws its one file as a CSS mask, so it takes the theme's colour.
+- A Signal's list is `entries_where` with
+  `EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM signal_verdicts v WHERE v.signal_id = $n AND v.feed_id = e.feed_id AND v.guid = e.guid AND v.hit)`
+  on top of the subscribed-feeds scope. So filters, search, sort, block lists and read state all
+  work as for All Subscriptions.
+- A verdict for a Signal deleted while Jev was being asked is not stored. Postgres's foreign key
+  would refuse it, and SQLite would keep it for nothing.
+
+## Watching it
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| Traces | A `signals` span for each pass (`entries`), and a `jev` span for each call (`user`, `signal_count`, `http.response.status_code`, and TypeSafe's reply as `error` when it refuses). |
+| Log, counted | `ev="signal"`, "an item fits a Signal", for each item with a fit: `user`, `feed`, `new` (how many of their Signals it fits). |
+| Log, warnings | The three in the table above. |
+| Events | `signal_hits` on the socket and `/api/events`. |
+
+## Limits
+
+- **The key is kept in plain text** in `users.typesafe_key`, because every call needs it whole. It
+  should be encrypted with a server key if the database is ever shared with anything else.
+- **Refused keys are remembered in memory**, so a restart tries each once again.
+- **Keywords changed while an item is being judged** can leave that one item's verdict from the old
+  words.
+- **The meter is the server's**, `ipx_jev_tokens_total` and `ipx_jev_requests_total` on
+  `/metrics`, and the Signals row of the dashboard: tokens as TypeSafe's answers count them, by
+  person (`user`, the account's name) and whose key paid (`key`, `server` or `own`; #278), with
+  `ipx_signals_judged_total` and `ipx_signals_hits_total` the same way. A call shared by several
+  people on the server's key is split by each one's share of its questions. Icon picks bill the
+  person on the server's key, key checks the person on their own. The dashboard's **Who used what**
+  sums them over its time range. It is
+  one call per item in the person's feeds as they come, and per item in the window for a new Signal.
+- **Only the window** is judged by publish date, apart from what an edit asks again.
+
+## Testing
+
+- `cargo test -p ipx`: the request's shape and the threshold (`signals::tests`), and the queue,
+  verdicts, ownership, unread counts and new keywords (`db::tests::a_signal_shows_what_jev_said_fits_and_only_to_its_owner`),
+  on SQLite and Postgres both.
+- `node --test tests/page-unit.js`: a Signal's place id and its list's address.
+- `npx playwright test -g Signal`: makes a Signal from the folder's +, and checks that the matching
+  item shows and that reading it reads it in its feed and clears the badge. TypeSafe is stood in for
+  by the fixture server's `/jev` (`IPX_TYPESAFE_URL`), which refuses the shape TypeSafe refuses, and
+  `/signal.xml` is dated today, since only the window is judged. They spend the TypeSafe key, so
+  each runs only when the Signals code or the test has changed since it last passed (`signalsTest`;
+  `IPX_SIGNALS_TESTS=1` runs them anyway).

+### Verifying Cloudflare's token
+
+Access adds `Cf-Access-Jwt-Assertion` to every request it forwards: a JWT naming the person,

+request, and takes the name from its `email` claim.

+```
+
+ipx fetches the public keys from `https://<access_team>/cdn-cgi/access/certs` when it starts, and
+again when a token names a key it has not seen (Cloudflare rotates them every six weeks or so), at
+most once a minute. It checks the signature (RS256 only), that the audience is this application's
+tag, the issuer, and the expiry. Anything else is refused, and so is every proxied request while
+the keys cannot be fetched; password and token sign-in still work then.
+

+    and answer is JSON unless an item says otherwise. The page is served by ipx-web, which passes
+    <code>/api</code> and <code>/media</code> on to ipx at the same address, so a script talks to
+    the address people open in a browser.</p>
+    <h2 id="auth">Signing in</h2>
+    <p>Send an API token, made in Settings under API tokens or with <a href="${'/docs/api/ipx/auth/post-tokens'}"><code>POST /api/tokens</code></a>:</p>
+    <pre><code>Authorization: Bearer ipx_…</code></pre>
+    <p>A token acts as the person who made it, and is an admin only if they are. A browser signs in
+    with <a href="/docs/api/ipx/auth/post-login"><code>POST /api/login</code></a> instead and is
+    given a cookie. Behind Cloudflare Access, Access stops a request with no Access sign-in before
+    iPX sees it: send an Access service token's <code>CF-Access-Client-Id</code> and
+    <code>CF-Access-Client-Secret</code> beside the API token.</p>

+    not yours, <code>400</code> a request that cannot be done as asked, <code>409</code> a conflict
+    the answer explains.</p>
+    <h2 id="ids">Ids</h2>
+    <p>A feed's id is a short name made from its title, such as <code>99-invisible</code>, and
+    appears in the page's address when the feed is open. An episode is its feed's id and its

+<h1>The directory</h1>
+    <p>The directory gathers the public podcasts that iPX servers' listeners follow, and how many follow each. It never holds a file and never learns who listens.</p>
+
+    <h2>Browsing it</h2>
+    <p>Anyone can browse <a href="https://directory.ipxreader.app">directory.ipxreader.app</a> without signing in: the most followed, the categories, everything A to Z, and a page for each podcast with its latest episodes and its address, to subscribe to in any podcast app.</p>
+
+    <h2>Connecting your iPX</h2>
+    <p>In iPX, an admin opens Admin, Directory and enters the directory's address, <code>https://directory.ipxreader.app</code>, and the token its operator gave your server. Everyone on your server then has the Directory at the top of their list, and subscribes from it in one click.</p>
+    <p>Turn on sharing to add your server's podcasts to it. iPX sends only the podcasts' addresses and how many people on your server follow each, never who. It leaves out anything that looks private: a podcast someone marked Private, one with a login or a key in its address, and paid feeds such as Patreon's.</p>
+
+    <h2>Its API</h2>
+    <p>Anything the pages show, a program can read through the directory's API with a token: see the <a href="/docs/api/directory/">ipx-directory API reference</a>.</p>
+
+    <h2>Running your own</h2>
+    <p>The directory is in the same repository. Build it, give it a database (Postgres or SQLite) and a config file, and make a token for each server that will use it:</p>
+<pre><code>docker build -f Dockerfile.directory -t ipx-directory .</code></pre>
+<pre><code>services:
+  ipx-directory:
+    image: ipx-directory
+    container_name: ipx-directory

+database_url_env = "DIRECTORY_DATABASE_URL"</code></pre>
+<pre><code>docker exec ipx-directory ipx-directory token new my-server --access rw</code></pre>
+    <p>That prints the token, to give to the server, and the lines to add to <code>directory.toml</code>, which keeps only its SHA-256. The directory reads the file again within a minute, so adding or revoking a token needs no restart. It checks each podcast every twelve hours.</p>

+<h1>Install ipx and ipx-web</h1>
+<p class="lede">iPX is two containers: <strong>ipx</strong>, which checks your podcasts, downloads them and answers the API, and <strong>ipx-web</strong>, which serves the page and passes the API on to ipx.</p>
+    <p>You need Docker with Compose. There are no published images yet, so you build both from the source:</p>
+<pre><code>git clone https://git.sdf1.net/rays/ipx.git
+cd ipx
+docker build -t ipx .
+docker build -f Dockerfile.web -t ipx-web .</code></pre>
+    <p>The repository has a sample <code>docker-compose.yml</code> that runs both, with the database in SQLite and everything ipx keeps in three folders beside the file:</p>
+<pre><code>services:
+  ipx:
+    image: ipx
+    container_name: ipx
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    environment:
+      PUID: "99"          # who owns the files it writes
+      PGID: "100"

+    ports:

+    depends_on:
+      - ipx</code></pre>
+<pre><code>docker compose up -d</code></pre>
+    <p>ipx has no port of its own: everything reaches it through ipx-web, on port 8099. Open <code>http://&lt;your server&gt;:8099</code> and sign in as <strong>admin</strong> with the password <strong>ipodderx</strong>, then change it:</p>
+<pre><code>echo -n 'a good password' | docker exec -i ipx ipx user passwd admin</code></pre>
+    <p>The password is read from what you pipe in, so it stays out of your shell's history.</p>
+
+    <h2>Adding people</h2>
+    <p>An admin adds people in Admin, Accounts, or from the command line:</p>
+<pre><code>echo -n 'their password' | docker exec -i ipx ipx user add sam</code></pre>
+    <p>Each person starts with no podcasts and subscribes to their own. Two people subscribing to the same show cost nothing extra: it is fetched once and each file is kept once.</p>
+
+    <h2>Settings</h2>
+    <p>How often podcasts are checked, how much disk to use, how many new episodes to download and the rest are in Admin on the page, and take effect straight away. <code>/config/config.toml</code> holds only what ipx needs before it can read its database: where downloads go, BitTorrent, and who gets in.</p>
