+- `sources` — RSS feeds with tier, polling interval, and **required** `direct_route` (must match a key in `matrix.channels`). Optional `language = "en"` drops items whose per-item `<language>` tag doesn't prefix-match — handy for multilingual feeds like Politico Europe
 - `web` — read-only HTTP UI (enabled toggle, listen address, site title, public base URL)

 ### Web UI
 
-Set `web.enabled: true` (default port `:8080`) to expose Pete's classified-story archive over HTTP. A landing page at `/` plus one section per channel (`/gaming`, `/tech`, `/politics`, `/eu`, `/music`, `/anime`, `/foss`), all pulling from the `stories` table. A `/weather` page demos the seasonal canvas overlay in isolation. Adding a section is two lines in `internal/web/server.go` (the `channels` slice) plus a matching theme color in `internal/web/static/css/input.css`.
