- A range reported to its end but not finished (its node went away at
the very end) was leased again with start past end; nodes asked for
"from 49208000000 to 49207999999", got 400, and the range failed after
five leases. The orchestrator now marks such ranges done before
leasing, and runRange reports them done without fetching.
- Some old ranges come so slowly that one XOVER of 20k headers takes over
two minutes: five ranges failed on "NNTP reply timed out". The relay
pool's timeout is SEED_NNTP_TIMEOUT_MS (default 10 minutes, the node's
HTTP timeout).

The seed API keeps a pool of NNTP connections (SEED_NNTP_CONNECTIONS) and
serves GET /api/v1/seed/ranges/:id/chunk?from=&to= for leased ranges:
the gzip stream the news server sent, passed on unopened. seed:node fetches
that way by default (SEED_FETCH=relay), so a node needs only a token and
SEED_CONNECTIONS; SEED_FETCH=direct keeps its own NNTP connections. All
fetching then comes from the indexer's IP (the account allows two).

- seed_nodes (hashed bearer tokens) and seed_ranges (planned ranges with
lease, resume point and counts); migration …140.
- SeedOrchestrator: lease (oldest plan first, FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED; a
lease without a batch for 15 min passes to the next node and resumes at
next_id), batch (stores files and fragments, moves next_id), finish,
release, plan (from below live indexing / the backfill / earlier plans
down to N days back; takes over the group's backfill), status.
- Seed API under /api/v1/seed (lease, ranges/:id/batches|done|release,
status) behind a node-token middleware; JSON bodies up to 64 MB after
gzip.
- seed:node runs a node: no database or Redis, outgoing HTTPS only, N
connections, gzip batches, retries for network errors and 5xx, drops a
range on 409, gives its ranges back on SIGTERM. seed-node/ has a compose
file that builds the image from this repository.
- seed:token, seed:plan, seed:status for the operator. Header parsing moved
to lib/ingest and the range loop to lib/seed/runner, shared by seed:range
and seed:node.
