Reader mode presents the stories on a page one at a time in a focused
overlay, marking each read as it's shown. Left/right arrows (or the header
book button / `f`) page through them; read stories dim on the grid. Read
state is device-local in localStorage.
Backing this required actually capturing article bodies, which Pete wasn't
doing — it kept only the RSS <description> lede and discarded content:encoded:
- stories.content column (idempotent migration; old rows fall back to lede)
- parser keeps content:encoded as paragraph-preserving text
- article fetch already done for paywall detection now also returns its body,
so ingest stores the richer of feed-content vs scraped body with no extra
request (prefers the archive snapshot body for paywalled stories)
- GET /api/article?id= serves the stored text; card queries now select id and
expose it as data-id for the reader
Tests cover content extraction, the storage round-trip, and the article
endpoint + card rendering end to end.
LWN's subscriber-only articles have no public version reachable by
archive snapshots or bypass UAs, so stamping them as paywalled produces
clicks that always dead-end. Detect the marker text and skip ingestion
entirely.
ANN wraps article bodies in <div class="KonaBody"> with no semantic
<article>/<main> tags, so body-length extraction fell below the 500-char
threshold and the poller flagged stories as gated. Broaden the container
fallback to also try itemprop="articleBody", common content-container
classes, and ANN's KonaBody.
- Add internal/safehttp: hardened HTTP client (DNS-resolved dial guard
blocking loopback/RFC1918/CGNAT/link-local, redirect re-validation,
body-size cap) and rewire article/feed/thumb clients through it
- Cap goquery body at 5 MiB so a hostile origin can't OOM the process
- search.js: reject non-http(s) hrefs to block stored XSS via javascript:
- dedup: tracking-param key "CMP" was unreachable (lookup lowercases);
fixed to "cmp" so CMP= is actually stripped from canonical URLs
- ForcePost: postItem now returns bool; on dedup-skip ForcePost returns
false so !post falls back to DB lookup instead of silently consuming
- Bound reaction callbacks behind an 8-slot semaphore; drop overflow
- Add stories indexes on (channel, classified, seen_at DESC),
(classified, seen_at DESC), and partial image_url to kill full scans
in IsKnownImageURL and ORDER BY seen_at hot paths
- Surface FTS5 probe Scan error instead of swallowing it
- Body extractor falls back to <article>/<main> container text when
<p> extraction is sparse, catching <br>-separated bodies (Phoronix).
- Detect Cloudflare bot-block / JS-challenge pages on 403/503 and
treat them as transport failures rather than paywalls (Brooklyn Vegan).
- og:image extractor falls back to img.wp-post-image and the first
content <img> in <article>/<main>, with lazy-load placeholder
handling via data-src / data-lazy-src (Hardcore Gaming 101).
- New -backfill-paywall flag re-checks paywalled=1 rows with the
current logic, clearing false positives and filling missing thumbs.
Bypass-UA retry (Googlebot + Google referer) for soft paywalls, JSON-LD
gating scoped to Article-typed nodes, HTTP 402 treated as explicit
paywall, Wayback freshness filter (30d cap), archive.today as secondary
archive fallback, and transport failures no longer trigger snapshot
swaps. When gating is detected and no archive workaround succeeds, the
story is stored with paywalled=1 and the web card renders a diagonal
red rubber-stamp overlay so readers know the link is gated.
- Detect explicit paywall markers (article:content_tier meta, JSON-LD
isAccessibleForFree) so metered articles fall back to Wayback even
when body length is above threshold
- Blank-import go.mau.fi/util/dbutil/litestream so the sqlite3-fk-wal
driver mautrix's cryptohelper depends on is registered
- Fix /img route: Go ServeMux requires {wildcard} to be a whole segment,
so capture {name} and strip the .avif suffix in the handler
When a user reacts ❓ on one of Pete's posts, fetch the article body,
ask Ollama for a 3-bullet summary, and post it as a threaded reply
rooted at the original story event. Per-process cooldown of 5min per
story keeps repeated reactions from re-summarizing.
- ingestion.FetchArticleBody: visible <p> text capped at 8000 chars
- classifier.OllamaClient.GenerateText: non-JSON variant
- storage.GetStoryByGUID: full row lookup
- matrix.PostThreadedReply: m.thread + m.in_reply_to fallback
- poster.SetReactionCallback: optional hook fired after recording
- New package: internal/explainer
Fetch each new article once and measure visible <p> text. If body is below
500 chars (or fetch fails), resolve a Wayback snapshot via the
archive.org/wayback/available API and use that URL for both the og:image
fallback and the posted link. Dedup keys stay derived from the original
URL so paywalled/non-paywalled hits collide as before.
- New: internal/ingestion/article.go (FetchArticleMeta via goquery)
- New: internal/ingestion/wayback.go (ResolveWayback)
- Removed: internal/ingestion/og.go (folded into article.go)
- poller.go: dedup first, then one article fetch, then snapshot fallback
