- groups:add / ranges:plan / nodes:create / coordinator:run commands
- the node API: lease, the range's chunks as one framed stream from the
spool, batches, heartbeat, finish, release (node guard, token per node)
- edge:node: needs COORDINATOR_URL and NODE_TOKEN only (placeholders for
the rest), posts a batch every 10 chunks, gives its range back on SIGTERM
- releases are gathered per batch: 1.04 chunk rows per release at 10
chunks per batch (1.35 when built per XOVER chunk)
- partitions are checked per batch instead of remembered

The rebuild branch starts over (REBUILD.md): the API starter kit, with
Postgres instead of SQLite (its own database, DB_SEARCH_PATH for a
shared one in development) and the #lib alias. Phase 1's code is
imported from the current app module by module.

Half the live leases go to higher-priority ranges, the rest to the others,
so a slow recent gap runs beside older history. With no article
connections the article relay answers 503 instead of waiting forever.

Inspection is split into prepare (database), probe (lib/content/probe:
downloads, decoding and parsing, no database) and apply (database).
worker:collection runs all three; seed:node with SEED_INSPECTORS leases
jobs from the same queues through the seed API (BullMQ manual leases),
fetches articles through the seed API and posts the probes back.
A node now needs only SEED_URL and SEED_TOKEN: the settings the app
requires but a node never uses get placeholders for seed:node.

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).

A failed NNTP login gives the range back uncounted (no attempt used), and a
node with nothing to lease holds no connection. Replaces log-in-before-lease,
which kept idle connections and logged in again every minute while idle.

- 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.

- API: min_size and max_size in MB, ext as a comma-separated list. An
extension matches as a whole word in search_text (file and entry names,
dots as spaces), so "iso" finds .iso files but not "ISOLATION", which a
plain search word matched as a substring. The trigram index serves it.
- Web UI: a size range and an extension field in the filter row, kept in
the URL like the other filters.

Spotnet (CONCEPT D29):
- Index free.pt fully and import spots with their descriptions, categories
and NZBs; a spot renames its release, since Spotnet names are more
trustworthy than names derived from subjects.
- Find passwords in spot descriptions too, and tell "needs a password we
have" from "needs a password we don't have".
Content inspection:
- List the contents of 7z (.7z.001) archives, SFV sets, nicovideo uploads
and other archive-like files; mark yEncBin .bin containers as encrypted.
- Take real names from yEnc headers for randomly named files, and merge
uploads that were split across posts.
Storage (D31, D32):
- Store segment lists zstd-compressed behind the FileStore accessor.
- group:backfill indexes older headers at low priority and pauses when
the NVMe or HDD part of the database gets too large.
Grouping (D35, D36):
- Lone header segments wait in staged_segments until a second segment of
their file arrives, which drops the per-article junk binaries.
- Counter grouping joins random-subject uploads by poster, [i/M] counter,
part count and day.
Search and maintenance (D33, D34):
- A trigram-indexed search_text column, smaller indexes, estimated stats.
- Passes that clean up nonsense names; weekly index maintenance; GC budgets
per kind.
- Web UI: grey out stale results while a search runs and cancel superseded
requests. Count only up to 1,000 matches for the page, which made filter
clicks take seconds (Newznab keeps the 10,000 cap).
