Paul Nothaft acb25a9a1c fix(images): probe and clean up preview tiers under the extension the encoder actually wrote (#1355)
generatePreviewImage rewrites the output extension to match the encoding
it chose, .jpg or .webp for alpha and multi-frame sources. The tier
lookup in ensurePreviewImageAtWidth and the cleanup list in
previewTierKeys kept the SOURCE extension instead, so for anything but a
lowercase .jpg source the stat never matched: every tier request for a
.png, .JPG, .jpeg, .heic or RAW photo re-ran Sharp, and cleanup never
found the files it left behind, which accumulated for the life of the
install.

Both now derive every key the tier can live under: the .jpg and .webp
candidates, plus the source-extension key last so tiers written before
the rewrite are still found by lookup and by cleanup.

Follow-up to issue 1020, where the mismatch was identified during review.

Paul Nothaft f735d26422 fix(gallery): a missing thumbnail tier must not take the backend down (#1128)
The first load of a gallery whose ?w= tiers do not exist yet could exit the Node
process — not 500 one tile, kill the backend. Two defects stacked.

The reader: LocalFsStorage.get() returns a lazy fs.createReadStream, so an ENOENT
arrives after the await returned and outside the route's try/catch. An unhandled
'error' event is a process-level throw. pipeStreamToResponse attaches the handler
the routes were missing — 404 for a vanished source, connection destroyed if
bytes are already on the wire, file headers cleared so the JSON error is not
served as image/jpeg or cached as a broken tile for an hour. Applied to all nine
streaming responses in gallery.js.

The writer: ensureThumbnailAtWidth passed regenerate:true, whose first act is to
DELETE the target — on a path only reached when the tier is absent. A grid fires
one request per tile, so one request unlinked the file another had just published
and handed to a reader. Without the flag the write is an atomic rename.

Generation is now also deduped per tier key: 8 concurrent requests ran 5 Sharp
passes before, 1 after.

Paul Nothaft 887bdbe6e5 feat(gallery): responsive grid thumbnails (#1095) (#1109)
* feat(gallery): responsive grid thumbnails (#1095)

The half of #1095 that #1099 deliberately left out. Grid tiles are ~175
CSS px at the mobile 2-column default — about 530 device px on a DPR-3
phone — so the 300px thumbnail is upscaled ~1.8x and faces visibly mush.

Backend mirrors the preview tiers exactly: ?w= on the gallery thumbnail
route, whitelisted to 300/600/900, cached by width in storage, never
written to photos.thumbnail_path, and keyed by photo id for every source
type — basenames are not unique across events and a tier is served from a
cache hit without re-reading the source, which is how the preview tiers
nearly leaked one gallery's photo into another. The tier is in the ETag,
or a client holding the 300px file gets a 304 for its 600px request.
Cleanup and regenerate invalidation are wired the same way.

generateThumbnail now takes width/height overrides; it keeps the
configured `fit`, because the grid renders with object-cover and tiers
that were framed differently would visibly jump as the viewport changes.

The srcset only advertises tiers the SOURCE can fill. Thumbnails are
generated withoutEnlargement, so a 400px original asked for 900 comes
back at 400 — advertising "900w" would have the browser pick that
candidate and upscale it, which is the reported softness made worse. That
exact trap is why this was held back from #1099; the photo's own
dimensions are now the guard, measured on the SHORT edge because
thumbnails are square and a 4000x600 panorama can still only fill a 600
tile. A source that clears only one tier gets no srcset at all rather
than a single pointless candidate.

Two things this surfaced, both worth knowing separately:

`npx tsc --noEmit` type-checks NOTHING in this project — the root
tsconfig is `files: []` with project references, so the real command is
`tsc -b`, which is what build:check runs. Under tsc -b the repo has 43
files with pre-existing type errors; this branch adds none, and the one
error in a file I touched (PeopleManagerModal:91) is on main already and
unrelated to the line I changed.

* fix(gallery): wire grid tiers into the component that actually renders

The srcSet landed in PhotoGrid.tsx, which nothing imports — GalleryView
renders PhotoGridWithLayouts, and every grid layout funnels its tile
through the shared PhotoCard. The frontend half of #1095 shipped nothing.

Moved to PhotoCard, and switched from srcSet to a single sized URL, the
same shape PhotoLightbox already uses for preview tiers. AuthenticatedImage
fetches its src with the gallery bearer token and renders the blob; an
<img> carrying a w-descriptor srcSet ignores src entirely, so that fetch
would have been discarded and the browser would have issued its own —
unauthenticated, and resolved against the page origin rather than the
configured API host. One URL keeps the auth path and halves the requests.

The tier comes from the tile's measured width via the IntersectionObserver
entry, read on the same render that reveals the image so nothing is fetched
twice. Column counts differ per layout and shift again with thumbnailScale,
so the breakpoint table is only a fallback.

Also closes what the tier cache leaked or served stale:

- ensureThumbnailAtWidth short-circuits videos. Their thumbnail is a poster
  frame, so the tier path handed the video file to Sharp — after downloading
  it in full on S3, uncached, once per request.
- The ETag names the tier actually served, not the one requested. A fallback
  to the canonical thumbnail was caching a 300px image under a 900px key.
- Tier height scales from the configured aspect ratio instead of forcing a
  square; with fit:'cover' a 300x200 canonical and a 600x600 tier are two
  different crops and the photo reframed between tiers.
- The canonical short-circuit compares against the configured thumbnail_width,
  not the 300 default, so a 600px install stops generating duplicate tiers.
- Tier invalidation on /admin/thumbnails/regenerate, above the local-file
  check that skips S3 and external rows.
- Tier cleanup in replacePhoto and deleteEventCascade. Both derive keys from
  the photo row, so the rows have to be read before they change or vanish.
  Preview tiers had the same two holes and are swept alongside.

The clamp no longer drops a tier when the source falls between them: a 400px
short edge asked for 600 returns all 400 pixels, where clamping to 300 threw
100 of them away.

Backend 18 tier tests, frontend 22. Full suites green: 293 backend across the
touched areas, 185 frontend, build clean, no new type errors.

* fix(gallery): measure the tile, and stop regenerating the w300 tier

Follow-up to the review of #1095. Closes the three items left open there,
plus a defect the previous commit introduced.

**The w300 tier regenerated on every request.** Decoupling the canonical
short-circuit from the hardcoded 300 left generateThumbnail still tagging
against DEFAULT_THUMBNAIL_WIDTH. On an install with thumbnail_width=600 a
w=300 request wrote `thumb_<name>` while the caller probed for
`thumb_w300_<name>`: the cache never hit, so every request re-downloaded the
original and ran Sharp, and the file it left behind was in no cleanup list.
The tag now follows the configured width, and thumbnailTierKeys lists all
three widths — which one is canonical is a setting, so excluding 300 stranded
exactly the file a 600-configured install generates.

**The tier is chosen from the tile's measured width.** The observer entry
only exists for `lazy` cards, and Mosaic, Masonry and Timeline don't pass it
— Mosaic is 1-up on mobile where Grid is 2-up, so they are the layouts a
breakpoint guess gets most wrong. Measured in a layout effect and gated: the
image is not rendered until the width is known, so AuthenticatedImage never
mounts with a src it has to replace. Attaching the observer ref
unconditionally instead refetches every tile, since React flushes passive
effects before the sync re-render a layout effect triggers — removing the
gate makes the new single-request test fail, which is how that was confirmed
rather than assumed.

**Gallery Premium has its own card** and never reached the shared one, so its
tiles kept pulling the canonical thumbnail. MasonryPhotoAlbum already hands
the laid-out width to the render prop, so it needed no measurement.

**Event rename orphaned tiers.** The key embeds the basename, so the DB
update is the point past which the old keys cannot be derived. Dropped inside
the filename-changed branch, not the loop body: unconditional would fire four
storage deletes per photo on every rename, 20k calls against S3 for a
5,000-photo event that merely had its slug adjusted. Preview tiers had the
same hole and are swept alongside.

Carousel is the seventh layout and deliberately gets no tiering: its
filmstrip thumbs are 80 CSS px, under the canonical 300 even at DPR 3.

Tests: first PhotoCard suite (6), backend tier suite 21. Both new behaviours
mutation-checked — reverting the width tag, the render gate, the measurement,
or the rename sweep each fails a test. Full suites green: 298 backend across
the touched areas, 191 frontend, build clean, no new type or lint findings.

* fix(gallery): mount masonry cards once, into a measured layout

Found while capturing screenshots for this PR, by attributing every thumbnail
request to a photo id rather than eyeballing the grid.

Masonry columns mode starts at 3 columns and runs its greedy distribution off
a hardcoded 300px estimate until the container has been measured. Cards
mounted into that guess are torn down when it settles — photos move to a
different parent column, so React unmounts them — and since #1095 each mount
picks its tier from its own width, the two mounts request two DIFFERENT urls.

Measured on a 1440px desktop, production build, 62 photos:

  before   45 photos fetched at canonical AND w600, 17 stuck on w600
           107 requests
  after    62 photos, canonical only, 62 requests

Mobile was already landing on one tier either way, so both mounts produced the
same url and the second was a cache hit — which is why it looked clean and the
desktop case did not.

The fix is the gate the rows/justified mode in this same file already applies
for the same reason (line 346): hold the cards back until containerWidth is
known. Only columns mode was missing it. Grid and Justified take their column
counts from CSS breakpoints, so they have no transient measured value to
discard and are unaffected.

Worth noting this was NOT visible on main: without tiering both mounts request
the same url, so the browser cache absorbs the duplicate. Tiering is what turns
a harmless remount into a second download — the regression is this PR's, which
is why it is fixed here rather than deferred.

Frontend suite 194 passed (3 new). Mutation-checked: removing the gate fails
the mount-once and placeholder tests.

Paul Nothaft 011f6ae7ec feat(gallery): sized preview tiers so phones stop pulling 1920px (#1095) (#1099)
* feat(gallery): sized preview tiers so phones stop pulling 1920px (#1095)

A phone can display ~1170px at most, but the preview tier is a single
1920px JPEG with no size parameter — so every lightbox swipe ships
roughly twice the bytes it can use, and the slide track preloads
neighbours, which multiplies it. On the reporter's all-external install
a null preview_url falls back to the untouched NAS original, which makes
it worse again.

Backend: ?w= on the gallery preview route, whitelisted to 640/1280/1920.
A whitelist rather than a free-form width because every distinct value
is a permanent rendition on disk — an open parameter is an invitation to
fill the volume. Unrecognised or absent values fall through to the
canonical 1920 preview, so old clients and hand-typed URLs behave
exactly as today.

Extra tiers are cache, not state: ensurePreviewImageAtWidth keys them by
width, looks them up in storage and generates on miss, and never writes
photos.preview_path. That column owns the canonical rendition, and
threading a width through it would mean the last size anyone requested
silently becomes "the" preview. Requesting 1920 resolves to the existing
preview rather than a w1920 duplicate, so no install grows a second copy
of every preview it already has.

The tier is part of the ETag. Without it a client holding the 1920
rendition gets a 304 for its 640 request and renders the wrong size,
which is this feature inverted.

Frontend: the lightbox picks a tier from innerWidth x devicePixelRatio,
capped at DPR 3 — uncapped, a DPR-10 device asks for 3900px and lands
straight back on the desktop rendition. At the top tier the URL is left
byte-identical so existing caches and ETags stay valid and desktop sees
no change at all. saveData and a 2g/3g effectiveType drop one tier;
both are Chromium-only, so they are a bonus rather than the mechanism.

Grid thumbnails are NOT tiered here, deliberately. generateThumbnail
resolves its width from admin settings rather than an argument, so
tiering it is a separate change — and shipping a srcset whose candidates
the server ignores would be worse than shipping none: the browser would
take the "600w" candidate, receive the 300px image and upscale it, which
is the reported softness made slightly worse. That half of #1095 lands
separately.

* fix(gallery): scope tier keys per photo, size by long edge, clean up tiers

External review. Three findings against the tier work, one a
cross-gallery leak.

The tier cache key was the photo's BASENAME. Managed uploads keep camera
basenames, so two events can each hold an IMG_0001.jpg — and a tier is
served straight from a cache hit without re-reading the source, so the
second gallery gets the first gallery's photo. Keys are now scoped by
photo id for every source type. The RAW branch passed proc.outputBasename,
which would have dropped that scoping again; it now passes the scoped name.

Tier selection used viewport WIDTH, but ?w= bounds the LONG edge
(fit:'inside'). On a 390x844 phone at DPR 3 a 2:3 portrait is bound by
height and renders ~1755 device px, so width-only picked 1280 and made
portraits softer than today; landscape on the same phone needs ~1170. It
now computes the rendered long edge from the photo's own dimensions and
falls back to the top tier — today's behaviour — when they are unknown.

Tiers live outside photos.preview_path, so nothing else knew they
existed: delete, bulk-delete and archive left them orphaned in previews/
forever, and regenerate-previews refreshed only the canonical rendition
while phones kept the stale copy. previewTierKeys derives them from the
same deterministic scheme and all four paths clean up. Deliberately
outside the preview_path guard — a tier can exist when the canonical
rendition never did, so keying cleanup off preview_path would strand
precisely the photos only ever viewed on a phone.

The existing tier tests encoded the old width-only semantics and were
updated rather than kept; that is a behaviour change, not a test fix.
