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.

* fix(images): single-flight lazy rendition generation and keep the old rendition during replacement
The lazy generators in imageProcessor are check-then-generate, and the
check reads the path off the photo row the route already fetched. N
concurrent cold requests for one photo all held a snapshot with the path
still null, all missed, and all ran the same sharp pipeline. Only the
thumbnail tier path had a guard; the canonical thumbnail it falls back
to, heroes, previews and preview tiers had none.
One process-local map now covers every rendition, keyed by photo id and
rendition (`thumbnail:<id>`, `thumbnail:<id>:w<width>`, `hero:<id>`,
`preview:<id>`, `preview:<id>:w<width>`). Concurrent callers share one
promise; the entry is cleared in a finally on success and failure alike
so a rejection cannot poison the key. The tier stat moved inside the
flight so a request arriving as the previous flight clears finds the
written tier instead of missing on a stale probe.
Heroes and previews also deleted the existing object before generating
its replacement, and again in the catch. Both are gone, mirroring what
the thumbnail generator already does: put is the last statement in the
try and replaces atomically on local storage and by key on S3, so the
delete only ever opened a window with no rendition at all, and a source
that failed to read stripped the old rendition with the row still
pointing at it.
No re-read of the photo row inside the flight: the admin regenerate
endpoints force a rebuild by passing a row with the path nulled, and a
re-read would hand back the persisted rendition untouched.
Fixes the single-flight half of issue 1020. The preview cache-key
extension mismatch and any server-wide work queue remain separate.
* fix(images): keep the snapshot validity check outside the single-flight
With the check inside the flight, an admin regeneration (row passed with
the path nulled) could join a viewer's flight for the same photo that was
merely confirming an already-good rendition, and be handed back the very
file it was asked to replace while the endpoint counted a success. Only a
miss enters the flight now; inside it everything is a regeneration.
* fix(images): forced rebuilds run after an in-flight lazy generation instead of adopting it
The admin regenerate endpoints could still join a lazy flight that was
already generating for the same photo. That flight read the thumbnail
settings when it started, so after a settings change it produces exactly
the rendition the regenerate was invoked to replace; adopting it counted
a success while the old size stayed cached.
ensureThumbnail and ensurePreviewImage take `{ force: true }`: skip the
snapshot check and, if a flight is pending, start after it settles. Lazy
misses arriving meanwhile join the forced flight, and an older flight
settling late no longer evicts the newer entry from the map.
* fix(images): key rendition flights by source as well as photo id
replacePhoto keeps the photo id and changes path and filename. Keyed by
id and width alone, a request carrying the replacement row joined a
flight still rendering the file it replaced and was handed the old
image, which the gallery caches for 30 minutes. The tier map this
replaced was keyed by storage key and so already told the two apart.
* test(thumbnails): wait for the regenerate loop's completion line instead of a fixed 150 ms
The loop runs in setImmediate after the response. Under a loaded machine
(fifteen suites in parallel, each booting a migrated SQLite) it took
longer than 150 ms once and the assertions ran against a half-finished
mock call list. Poll the logger spy for the "regeneration complete" line
with a 10 s deadline; the suite also finishes sooner because the wait
ends as soon as the loop does.

PUT /admin/events/:id spreads the body into the UPDATE. SQLite resolves
quoted identifiers case-insensitively, so `{ "Event_Name": ... }` lands
on event_name there — while every check in the handler (validators, the
field-level permission guards, the deny-set) keys on the exact lowercase
name. The deny-set already case-folded for its own columns; every other
column was reachable through a spelling variant.
Every events column and every input-only key the handler accepts is
lowercase snake_case, so a key with any uppercase in it is not something
a legitimate client sends. Such keys are now removed before anything
looks at the body. Postgres was unaffected (quoted identifiers are
case-sensitive there; a variant produced a 500 instead).
Surfaced by the Codex review of the folder-watcher change, where a
photos.upload guard on external_watch could be walked around this way.
Co-authored-by: Paul Nothaft <paul@MacStudio-von-Paul.local>
* feat(external-media): watch reference folders and import new files automatically
Managed uploads dropped into storage/events/active are picked up by the
chokidar watcher; external media had no equivalent, so a NAS folder that
keeps growing needed an admin to open the event and press Import every
time. Relates to issue 1187.
- The import pass moves out of the route into
services/externalImportService.js. The watcher and the Import button
now run the identical function; the route only validates and maps
errors to status codes.
- Mutual exclusion is the per-event claim from maintenanceJobState
(`external_import:<id>`, seeded on demand by the new ensure()) instead
of the in-process Set. The Set stopped a double-click in one process;
the claim also stops the watcher on a second replica, or an admin
clicking while the watcher is mid-run elsewhere. The run heartbeats so
a claim from a dead process is taken over.
- services/externalMediaWatcher.js: per-event opt-in via the new
events.external_watch column (migration 208), chokidar with
awaitWriteFinish so a copy in flight is not imported half-written,
debounced full pass per change, a timer sweep every 15 minutes as the
fallback for NFS/SMB mounts that deliver no inotify events, optional
stat-polling via EXTERNAL_MEDIA_WATCH_POLLING. The set of watched
events is re-read every minute, so the toggle works from any replica.
A watcher that just started runs one pass immediately.
- Deletions are ignored on purpose: a file vanishing from a NAS is at
least as likely to be a reorganisation or a dropped mount as an
intentional removal, and acting on it would delete a guest-visible
photo. Rows whose file is gone stay, as they do today.
- Not gated on STORAGE_BACKEND: EXTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT is always local.
- Quiet system passes stay out of the activity log; runs that imported
something are logged with actor external-media-watcher.
- Frontend: "Watch folder for new files" checkbox under the external
folder picker, status line in view mode, EN/DE strings.
* fix(external-media): close the review gaps in the folder watcher
Codex review of the watcher, round 1. All six findings were real:
- Enabling the watcher, or pointing an enabled one at another folder,
now requires photos.upload — the permission the manual Import already
requires. events.edit alone was a way around it. Only the transition
is checked, so a role without photos.upload can still edit an
already-watched event. The checkbox is disabled for such roles.
- Automatic passes defer files that are still changing: anything
modified inside the stability window, or whose size moves across one
wait of that window, is left for the next pass. chokidar's
awaitWriteFinish only settles the file that fired the event, and the
sweep sees no events at all, so a sibling still being copied could be
inserted half-written and then skipped forever.
- Photos an admin deleted are not brought back by the sweep. The delete
routes record the file in external_import_exclusions (migration 209);
automatic passes skip the list, the manual Import ignores it and
clears it for what it imports.
- The six EXTERNAL_MEDIA_WATCH* variables are forwarded in all three
compose files; they were documented but the backend services use
explicit environment lists, so the kill switch did nothing.
- A pass re-checks is_active / is_archived at run time, not only in the
minutely reconcile.
- The lease is renewed on a timer for the whole run, walk included, and
ownership is checked before the event row is touched.
* fix(external-media): make automatic passes follow the row, not rewrite it
Codex review round 2, four findings, all applied:
- The event update route drops non-canonical spellings of external_watch
and external_path before the permission guard. SQLite resolves column
names case-insensitively, so `External_Watch` reached the column while
the guard only looked at the lowercase key.
- Exclusions are checked per file at insert time, not against a
snapshot taken before the settle wait. A photo deleted during the wait
was present in the snapshot and got re-inserted by the loop.
- An automatic pass no longer writes source_mode / external_path. It
re-reads the row after the walk and the settle wait and stops if the
folder changed or the event went managed; the manual Import is the
only writer. The options are now `automatic` + `settleMs`.
- A pass that deferred files re-arms the debounced import, so a file
copied just before the watcher started is not stranded when the sweep
is disabled.
* fix(external-media): keep exclusions for replaced photos, stop a pass whose event stopped qualifying
Codex review round 3, both findings applied:
- recordExclusions keys on external_relpath alone. A replaced external
photo becomes managed but keeps its relpath on purpose, and deleting
that replacement must not republish the NAS original.
- An automatic pass checks the full watcher predicate (reference mode,
same folder, watch on, active, not archived) before it inserts and on
every heartbeat tick during the loop, and stops as soon as the event
no longer qualifies.

On the CMS page the editor has no bounded height, so a long document
scrolls the whole admin content area and the toolbar scrolled away with
it. Editing a 16-section privacy policy meant scrolling back to the top
for every heading or list.
The top toolbar block (mode/save row and formatting row) is now
`sticky top-0` from the md breakpoint up, pinned to the admin page's
scroller. The rounded wrapper clips with `overflow-clip` instead of
`overflow-hidden`, because hidden turns the wrapper into a scroll
container and the toolbar would pin to that instead of to the page. Not
below md: there the formatting row wraps to several lines and a
permanently stuck block would eat most of a phone's editing area.
Two things follow from pinning. The link-entry row moves inside the
sticky block: rendered below it, the URL field sat at the toolbar's
original document position, under the pinned toolbar. And ProseMirror's
selection scrolling gets a top threshold and margin sized from the
block's rendered height (ResizeObserver, re-applied through
editor.setOptions), because the formatting row wraps to two rows at
common desktop widths and the link row comes and goes; a constant would
leave the caret behind the toolbar half the time. Below md the offsets
are zero again.
Verified in Chromium against the CMS page with an 18-section document:
scrolled to the last sections, the toolbar stays at the top of the
content area; on main it is gone. A source-level test pins the sticky
block, the wrapper's clip, the link row's placement and the measured
offsets, since jsdom does not lay out.

* feat(security): opt-in recoverable gallery passwords
Gallery passwords are bcrypt hashes, so an admin who needs to hand a
password to a client a second time has to reset it, which invalidates
what the client already has. This adds a security setting,
security_gallery_password_recoverable, off by default, that keeps an
AES-256-GCM encrypted copy of each gallery password and client PIN next
to the hash. The key is derived from GALLERY_PASSWORD_ENCRYPTION_KEY or
JWT_SECRET.
While the setting is on:
- create, publish, send-later, edit, reset and the v1 API write the copy
alongside the hash; turning a gallery's password requirement off
clears it
- GET /api/admin/events/:id/password returns the copy to admins with
events.edit and ownership, and writes a gallery_password_viewed
activity entry on every real reveal
- resend-email uses the stored password instead of the "set at creation"
sentinel, so the client receives what already works
Switching the setting off purges every stored copy. Login and hash
verification are untouched; the copy is never read on the gallery side.
The Security tab carries the toggle with a warning that stays visible,
and the event page shows "Show password" with copy buttons only while
the setting is on and the gallery has a secret.
Relates to issue 1271
* fix(security): close the write-versus-switch-off race in the password vault
The recoverable setting is read while an event insert is assembled and the
client-PIN hash awaits after that, so a settings request that switched the
feature off and purged in that gap was overtaken by the insert. Every write
site now re-reads the setting right after its statement and clears its own
row when the setting is off; the settings writer flips the value before it
purges, so either the purge or the re-check catches the row.
* fix(security): resend carries the stored client PIN and link; deterministic tamper test
The creation mail includes the client-access link and PIN; a resend only
sent the gallery password even when a stored PIN was available. The
ciphertext tamper assertion replaced the last two characters with a
constant, which was a no-op roughly once in 4096 runs.
* fix(security): drop the revealed password after Send gallery email
The send-later route can replace the password; the share card keys its
revealed copy on the event query's refetch time, so invalidate the event
after the send like the other password-changing mutations do.
* fix(security): purge leftovers before the setting write when turning recovery on
Switching on wrote the setting first and purged after, so a password write
that read the new "on" in between stored a copy the purge then deleted.
Turning on now purges before the write; turning off keeps purging after it,
which together with the write-site re-check leaves the vault holding
exactly what was written while the setting was on.
* chore(security): drop the duplicate rateLimitService import left by the rebase
* chore(usage): register the password recovery routes in the v5 coverage inventory
The inventory moved from v4 to v5 on main; the entry added by this branch
followed it.

* feat(usage): distinguish real edits and template delivery with v5 consent
* fix(usage): exclude queued test messages and count reorders as edits
- queueEmail carries usageEligible: false into email_data and the queue
processor passes it on, so the dev tools' send-test-email no longer
records email_template_delivery once the worker sends it.
- event-types/reorder and categories/reorder-global compare the persisted
order before and after and record the v5 edit markers only when it
changed, matching the display_order edit already counted on PUT.
- normalized() builds arrays with Array.from so a row array from the sqlite
binding compares equal under Jest's separate realm.
* fix(usage): cover per-gallery category order and workflow test runs
- categories/reorder records category_editing when an event's override
changes; reorder/:eventId records it when an override was actually
removed.
- send_email and the collections handoff pass usageEligible: false for a
workflow test run (engine.testRun sets __test), so a non-dry test send is
not counted as template delivery.

* fix(email): scrub gallery passwords from the sent-mail archive
The email queue kept every gallery password and client PIN in clear
text in email_data and rendered_html after the mail was sent, and the
Messages reading pane handed them back to any admin with the messaging
flag. A password hash in the events table bought nothing while the
plaintext sat next to it.
Once a mail is out, or its retries are exhausted, the processor now
masks secret-looking variables (password, passcode, pin) in email_data
and replaces their values in the rendered body, plain and HTML-escaped.
The reading pane applies the same masking to rows archived before this
change. Pending rows keep the real values so a retry still sends them.
Relates to issue 1271
* fix(email): keep a quoted ">" from cutting an attribute value out of redaction
The tag splitter stopped at the first ">", so a template attribute such as
title="{{gallery_password}} > details" left the password unmasked in the
archived HTML while email_data was already masked. The tokenizer is now
quote-aware; a tag with an unbalanced quote falls through as text and is
scrubbed there.
* fix(email): scrub secrets inside HTML comments in the archived body
A comment such as <!-- PIN: {{client_password}} --> was split off as a tag
and its body, which has no attribute, was never scrubbed. Comments are now
one segment and their content is masked whole.

* feat(settings): expose the API rate limiter in the Security tab
The general per-IP limiter had six settings in app_settings and a
backend route to write them, and no screen. Installs ran on the code
fallback — 300 requests per 15 minutes per IP — with no way to see it,
which is how issue 1287 played out: a 546-photo gallery exhausted the
budget for one viewer and the operator learned about the setting from
a grep of the backend log.
Security tab: a card with the six settings, the validation ranges the
route enforces, a one-line explanation per field, and a note that the
unit is the client IP — an office or household behind one NAT shares
a budget, and behind a proxy TRUST_PROXY has to cover the proxy or
every visitor shares its address. The tab's Save button saves the
limiter through its own route. The limiter values are checked against
the route's ranges before anything is written and the limiter is
written first, so a rejected value cannot leave the password/session
settings half-saved behind a failure toast.
Backend, three things the screen needed:
- The settings read fills the six keys with the code defaults when
they have no row, so the form shows the budget in force rather than
an empty field; the defaults live in one exported constant the
limiter itself reads.
- The write route upserts instead of updating: on a fresh install,
which has no rows, the old UPDATE matched nothing and the route
answered 200 while changing nothing.
- The live limiter instances move into rateLimitService and the
write route rebuilds them. express-rate-limit fixes windowMs when an
instance is built — max and skip re-read the settings per request,
the window does not — so a saved window used to apply only after a
restart. The gates in server.js resolve the instance per request
through the service's getters. A rebuild starts fresh counters,
which on a settings change is acceptable. The limiters get explicit
MemoryStores and a rebuild shuts the superseded ones down, because a
store keeps a cleanup interval alive for as long as it exists and
dropping the reference alone would leak one timer per save.
Tests: the read surfaces defaults and honours the key filter; the
write creates rows on a fresh database, the limiter sees the values
immediately and hands the gates a fresh instance; existing rows are
updated not duplicated; out-of-range values are rejected. The tab
renders the values, edits through the hook state, carries the ranges,
saves with the tab's button, and the pre-write validation accepts the
bounds and rejects outside them and cleared fields.

* docs(security): correct the rate limiter defaults and how they are set
SECURITY_LOGGING.md said rate_limit_max_requests defaults to 1000 and
that the settings are configurable via the admin panel. The code
fallback when no app_settings row exists is 300 (19e125d8), a fresh
install has no row, and there is no admin screen: the settings are
written by PUT /api/admin/settings/security/rate-limit, which nothing
in the frontend calls. The reporter of issue 1287 ran on the 300
default without any way to see it.
The table now carries the real defaults, what the auth budget counts,
the exemptions including the gallery-image one from v3.127.0-beta.0,
and the TRUST_PROXY and shared-NAT caveats.

In Safari the product-usage consent dialog opened as a 302px box on a
714px viewport with the disclosure text squeezed into a 32px strip
between header and footer. The dialog is a native <dialog> laid out as
a flex column with only a max-height, so its own height is indefinite,
and the disclosure region used `flex-1`, which is `flex: 1 1 0%`.
WebKit resolves that 0% basis against the indefinite container height
as zero: the region's hypothetical size is zero, the dialog sizes to
header plus footer, and the max-height never comes into play. Chromium
treats the same basis as `content` and was fine.
An `auto` basis with min-height 0 sizes the region from its content and
lets it shrink to the max-height: measured in iOS Safari, 641px dialog
and a 371px scrolling region, footer on screen, matching Chromium.
Only the <dialog> is affected. The div-based modals that use the same
`flex-1 overflow-y-auto` pattern inside a max-height column were
measured in the same WebKit and size correctly, so they stay as they
are. A test pins the classes with the reasoning, since jsdom cannot
see the layout.
The block mixed Sie and du (four strings duzed, the rest siezte), used
two words for the same credential (Lookup-Hash, Abfrage-Hash) and two
for the same people (Maintainer, Betreuer), and carried a handful of
strings that read like a translation rather than German: "Die
Übertragung benötigt Aufmerksamkeit", "rundheraus abgelehnt",
"Integriert bedeutet verfügbar, nicht genutzt", "feste Galerie-Layouts"
for controlled layouts, "Erneut versuchen / fälligen Bericht senden" as
a button label.
Now du throughout (the form the maintainer chose for this area),
Abfrage-Hash and Betreuer everywhere, Collector left as the product
name it is, and the clunky strings reworded. No key added or removed;
meaning unchanged, so nothing here touches consent.
The "open usage portal" button was a plain link, so an operator who
wanted to see their own data had to copy the lookup hash out of the
settings page and paste it into the portal. Next to it sat a second
control, "connect to requests & voting", which minted a collector
session and then showed a third thing, a link to open it.
One button now. Before participation it stays the plain link: the
portal is public and someone deciding whether to join should be able
to look at it first. While participating, a click asks the backend for
a collector session (a signed `session` command, so the collector knows
which installation this is) and opens the portal with that token in the
URL fragment. Fragments are never sent over the wire; the portal drops
it from the address bar on load and keeps the session in memory only.
The lookup hash itself never leaves the settings page, and no URL a
server or an access log sees ever carries a credential.
The tab is opened synchronously in the click handler and navigated once
the session exists, because opening it after the await trips popup
blockers. If the collector cannot be reached the session command is
queued for retry and the tab falls back to the public portal, so the
click still lands somewhere; a failed request closes the tab again. The
separate connect button and its session link are gone, and so are
their strings.
The only way into the usage portal from the settings tab was the
session-bound link behind "Connect", which needs an active participation
and creates a 15-minute voting session. An operator deciding whether to
join had no way to look at the portal first. The status card now carries
a plain "Open usage portal" link to the collector base URL the status
endpoint already reports, shown whenever that URL is valid, opening in a
new tab with rel="noopener noreferrer". The session link stays as it is.
German "Teilnahme prüfen" read as a technical check rather than reviewing
the consent details; it is now "Details ansehen" in both places the key is
used (notice link and opt-in button). The actual opt-in stays
"Produktnutzung aktivieren".
Relates to issue 1317
features.v2/v3/v4.json carried every name, description and definition
twice, once in English and once in German, inside a file that is source
code, is vendored byte-identically into the collector and is served as
the consented catalog. Source stays English. The German strings already
existed a second time in the frontend locale file, which is what the
consent dialog actually renders (UsageCatalog reads
productUsage.catalog.<key>, never the JSON), so the copy in the catalog
was a duplicate that could only ever drift.
The `de` fields are gone from all three catalogs, their frontend copies
and the inventory definitions; the docs coverage file and
FEATURE_COVERAGE.md list English only. Nothing on the wire changes: the
report schema is derived from the keys, and the catalog's text is not
part of any signature or consent version string.
The coverage test now pins the catalog to the en locale verbatim and
requires the de locale to cover every key and field, without dictating
its wording. The collector holds the same catalog files and needs the
same change to stay byte-identical, plus its German catalog strings
moved into its own locale file; that is filed there.
Trivy flags the backend image on two sanitize-html advisories, both
fixed upstream:
- CVE-2026-63670 (fixed 2.17.6): a literal solidus after a raw-text end
tag (`</textarea/>`) is treated as text by htmlparser2 and re-emitted
unescaped, so disallowed markup passes when textarea or xmp is in
allowedTags.
- CVE-2026-84371 (fixed 2.17.7): an SVG SMIL animation whose
attributeName selects href lets the sibling values/from/to/by
attributes carry URLs past the scheme policy.
2.17.5 -> 2.17.7, exact pin as before. The new version brings its own
htmlparser2 12 / domhandler 6 / domutils 4 / dom-serializer 3 /
entities 8 tree under node_modules/sanitize-html; nothing else in the
lock moves.
That tree is ESM-only, so the backend now needs unflagged require(esm):
Node 20.19+ or 22.12+. The image is node:22-alpine and CI runs 22, but
engines.node still admitted 22.0-22.11, where require('sanitize-html')
throws ERR_REQUIRE_ESM at startup (publicSiteService loads it during
initialisation). engines is now ^20.19.0 || >=22.12.0 and the native
setup script's Node check enforces the same range instead of accepting
any 22.x. On the supported versions the sanitiser behaves identically
to 2.17.5 on the tracker and newsletter fixtures.
Jest 29's CommonJS registry cannot evaluate ESM either, so every suite
importing a route or service that uses the sanitiser would fail at
import. jest.config.js now maps `sanitize-html` to jest.sanitizeHtml.js,
which hands that one module to Node's real loader via
process.getBuiltinModule('module') — a plain require('module') inside
Jest is Jest's wrapper and returns an empty object for this package.
Verified against a real 2.17.7 install: the sanitiser suites and a
settings route suite pass; without the mapper they fail with "Cannot
use import statement outside a module".
The general per-IP limiter was inert until b0f33c17 registered it ahead
of the routers (budget 100, raised to 300 by 19e125d8), and 839bf4e4
then stopped gallery tokens from earning the authenticated skip. Since
that release every guest has been paying for the gallery's thumbnails
out of 300 requests per 15 minutes per IP. A 546-photo grid runs out
mid-scroll: the remaining tiles come back 429, which the frontend
turned into blank tiles with no error and no retry, and the next
refresh finds the photo list limited too.
Reproduced in iOS Safari against a seeded 546-photo Grid gallery:
loading in bursts, then nothing, no console output, no recovery — the
exact shape of the large-gallery report, whose plateaus were 125, 235,
300 and 308 tiles.
A token that verifies and names the gallery in the path is now exempt
on the image routes only: thumbnail, preview, hero and photo, GET only.
The photo list, downloads, feedback and every write stay on the budget,
a token for one gallery buys nothing on another, and the exemption
rides on skip_authenticated so an operator who turns the skip off
counts guests too. The 839bf4e4 concern — a free token as an unlimited
budget on every /api route — stays closed; what this hands back is the
bandwidth of routes a 300-request budget never bounded anyway.
Relates to issue 1287
Every tile, the hero and the folder covers switched to a <canvas> when
the per-event toggle was on or the protection level was `maximum`. A
canvas pins a backing store of naturalWidth × naturalHeight × 4 bytes
that the browser is not allowed to evict, and iOS Safari has a hard
budget for canvas memory that fails silently when exceeded — blank
tiles, no error, on exactly the browser the large-gallery report came
from. A gallery is several hundred tiles and one lightbox image.
What canvas buys on a thumbnail is a slightly harder right-click. What
actually protects the images is server-side: the served file is
watermarked and the download route refuses when downloads are off. The
photographer who reported the large-gallery case, shipping to real
clients, said the same and turned the global toggle off once it was
about to reach their next gallery.
So: tiles, hero and folder covers always render <img>. The lightbox
keeps both the per-event toggle and the `maximum` implication — one
image, where the calculus is different. The toggle is now wired to the
lightbox for the first time; before this it reached only the tiles, so
the label that said "canvas rendering" turned every grid into canvases
and left the lightbox alone. Labels in all four locales now say where it
applies.
`protectionLevel` was destructured in seven tile components only to feed
that OR; those props and their pass-throughs go with it. The shared
layout props keep it, since the story layout still hands it to its
lightbox.
A source-level test pins that only PhotoLightbox passes
useCanvasRendering to AuthenticatedImage or turns it on for `maximum`.

Current Umami script.js exposes `window.umami = { track, identify }`;
`trackView` was the v1 API. `trackPageView()` called it unguarded, so
every admin route change threw
`TypeError: window.umami.trackView is not a function`.
`trackPageView()` now prefers `track(fn)` with the sanitized URL merged
into the tracker's default payload (no `name` = page view), falls back to
`trackView` only on a legacy script, and no-ops when the script has not
loaded yet or offers neither. The call is wrapped so a throwing tracker
can never break navigation. The `window.umami` typing marks the legacy
methods optional so the compiler enforces the guard.

gallery_downloads.configured was true on every installation with a
gallery. allow_downloads ships true — column default in migration 037
and the create route both set it — and the snapshot asked "at least one
gallery has it on". The fleet value was ~100% by construction and could
not separate a deliberate configuration from an untouched one.
v2 consented to that key under that description, so v2 keeps sending it
unchanged. v3 replaces it with gallery_downloads_restricted: at least
one gallery has downloads switched off, which is the only state of that
column anyone actually decides. Same catalog position, so the disclosed
capability count stays at 86; the frontend copy, the EN/DE catalog
strings, the coverage inventory and FEATURE_COVERAGE.md follow.
Done in v3 rather than a v4 because v3 is on main and in no release
yet, so nobody has consented to it. The collector carries the same
catalog and has to take this change before the release that ships v3.
One guard for the window in which :main / :beta images already carried
the old v3 catalog. A report queued under it fails local validation on
this build, and deliver() left a locally invalid report pending for
good, blocking every operation behind it. A report's payload is derived
state, so deliver() now rebuilds it from the current snapshot in place
and sends that. Packet ID and sequence are kept — a re-signed retry has
to reuse them so a lost acknowledgement does not duplicate data — and
reports only: a stale registration, deletion or command is a genuine
conflict and keeps the existing handling.
Tests: the v3 snapshot counts a switched-off gallery and ignores
enabled ones, v2 still reports the old key with the old meaning, and a
stale queued report goes out rebuilt under the same packet id while a
valid one is sent untouched.

A rejected fetch in AuthenticatedImage set the error state, rendered
nothing, and never asked again. The fetch effect only re-runs when its
inputs change, and for a grid tile they never do — so a transient
failure (a hiccup on cellular, or Safari cancelling loads when the tab
goes to the background) was a permanently blank tile with no request in
flight and nothing in any log. Grid passes no fallbackSrc, so there was
not even a broken-image icon to point at.
The retry is bounded and gated. Three attempts with a doubling delay
(2 s, 4 s, 8 s), and an attempt fires only once the placeholder
intersects the viewport and the document is visible, so a tile that
failed while the user was away retries when they come back rather than
while they are still gone. A new src gets a fresh budget. The
fallbackSrc path is untouched: it already renders a plain <img> and
should not loop.
Two refinements from review. A final 4xx (anything but 408 and 429)
exhausts the budget at once: an expired gallery token or a missing
photo cannot be retried into existence, and on a 68-tile viewport three
retries each would be ~200 requests that cannot succeed. And a 429's
Retry-After is honoured as the minimum delay, because the backoff alone
would spend every retry inside a 15-minute rate-limit window and leave
the tile blank after the limit had lifted. Retry-After is not
CORS-safelisted, so server.js now exposes it for split-origin
deployments alongside Content-Disposition.
The error branch now renders the same grey box as the loading state
instead of null. That is what the retry effect observes, and it is
also something the user can see. The empty-src branch now clears the
error flag too, so a tile whose src is removed after a failure does not
keep showing the failure box.
Nine tests in AuthenticatedImage.retry.test.tsx; the retry cases fail
against the previous version.
Not presented as the fix for the iOS report. It closes the one gap that
turns a transient failure into a permanent one, which the reporter asked
for in the original issue, and it is worth having on any device.
