prosolis 9224c44fff The es pair, and a dictionary that was quietly Spain's
Phase 25. Spanish was never built — the groundwork was all [x] (DreamDict
data, the prompt language, the L1 rule gating, TTS env-discovery), which is
why the plan read as though it had shipped. shippedPairs was the honest
answer: the server had been refusing es on purpose.

The langpack is neutral Latin American, chosen with the user: tú, ustedes,
no vosotros, and the pan-American half of every vocabulary split. A vitest
greps for the peninsular twins the way fr is greped for québécismes —
including coger, which is not merely regional but obscene through most of
Latin America.

The dictionary is the story. Debian's hunspell-es symlinks twenty country
codes to one file, which reads as pan-Hispanic; RLA publishes twenty-four
builds per release, one per country plus a generic es that is the union,
and Debian ships peninsular es_ES. The 58,622-form gap is essentially
voseo, so the first version of this commit underlined vení and tenés as
misspellings and called it a considered gap.

The MUST_ACCEPT list was written to catch exactly that and structurally
could not: it asserted the pan-Hispanic vocabulary, and every RLA variant
carries the full pan-Hispanic vocabulary — only the paradigms are
localised. The REP table cited as the second witness is shared by all
builds too. Two independent-looking proofs, neither able to distinguish
anything, agreeing with each other.

The profile now demands what discriminates, each verified against the build
it targets: voseo rejects es_ES and Debian, vosotros rejects es_MX, and
arepa/chévere/bacán reject es_AR, which has both paradigms and would
otherwise pass. 717,640 forms, 1.74 MB gzipped, 762 ms / 97 MB in a real
nspell. fr and pt-PT rebuild byte-identical from their own upstream debs,
so the shared script still means what it meant.

Shipping the union is fr's call arrived at from the other side: coût and
cout are both correct French, tienes and tenés are both correct Spanish.
The dictionary holds every variety because underlining is all it can do;
the copy picks a register because speaking requires one.

Reviewed by four models at the usual >=2-of-4 threshold, 5 of 27 findings
applied — one catching the bedtime proverb as fr's Qui dort dîne calqued
into Spanish, gloss and all, which is the rule the fr header states. One
below-threshold finding (a missing ¡, seen by 1 of 4 because an absent
opening mark has no closing ! to look wrong against) was applied and turned
into an assertion instead: the suite now rejects any native line that
closes ? or ! without opening one.

piper-es on es_MX-ald-medium, not the es_ES-davefx-medium the plan named —
six of Piper's nine Spanish voices are peninsular, so the obvious pick was
the pt-PT trap through a different door.

go build/vet/test, tsc, vite, vitest 251/251.

Not deployed, not seen in a browser, not read by a native speaker, and no
es account exists.

prosolis 69bf3ffde1 Close the door the edge gate used to hold
A security review of the whole repo. The queries were already scoped, the
OIDC flow already did state and nonce and PKCE, the session tokens were
already stored as hashes. What it found was mostly the seam between the
code and the deployment — and one place where the deployment quietly
undid the code.

The one that matters: with any AUTHENTIK_* variable missing, Petal fell
back to resolving every request to the single `local` user. That is right
on a laptop and a catastrophe on a public host, and Phase 16 removed the
Traefik basic-auth gate that used to stand behind the mistake. A typo in
the client secret would have served her journals to the open internet and
said so only in a log line nobody reads. It now refuses to start, guarded
by default for any BASE_URL that isn't loopback.

Then the one that would have been fixed and wasn't: stored images now
serve under `default-src 'none'; sandbox`, so an SVG pasted into a
document can't run as a page on Petal's own origin. Traefik's
customresponseheaders *overwrites*, so the CSP declared in the compose
labels would have silently replaced that per-route policy in production.
The whole header block moved into the binary, where a route can tighten
its own and a test can prove it; only HSTS stays at the edge, where TLS
actually terminates.

The rest, smaller:

  - PETAL_ALLOWED_SUBS empty means everyone authentik authenticates, and
    authentik here fronts half a dozen applications. Still legal, now
    said out loud every boot, and set in both env examples.
  - LLM failures relayed err.Error() to the browser, which carries the
    address of the inference box on the far side of the VPN. Logged
    instead; the client only ever rendered "the helper is resting".
  - Exports scheme-check their links. Escaping makes a URL safe to sit
    in an attribute and says nothing about following it, and an export
    is the one artifact here meant to leave. Writing the test found the
    markdown image src, which I'd missed reading it.
  - The draft rescue is namespaced per account and cleared on sign-out.
    Everything else in localStorage is a preference; this is her unsaved
    writing, sitting in a profile two people share.
  - /auth/logout is POST-only. With SameSite=Lax a GET route lets any
    page on the internet sign her out mid-draft.
  - Image uploads get a per-account allowance and the TTS cache a size
    cap. Both share the encrypted volume the database is on, and a full
    disk is SQLite failing to write, not a feature degrading.
  - The session cookie takes the __Host- prefix over https, so nothing
    else under parodia.dev can plant one. Old cookies still resolve;
    nobody is signed out to get there.
  - npm audit: linkify-it and postcss.

Verified: go build, go vet, the full Go suite, tsc, 195 frontend tests,
npm audit clean. The startup guard and both CSPs checked against a
running server rather than only asserted.

prosolis 071ea7b835 Petal learns French, and the pack that shipped was misspelling itself
Phase 24, the fr half: langpack, Hunspell dictionary, Piper voice, and the
lexicon coverage that turned out to have been measured already (63.1%, better
than pt-PT's 62.1%). No migration; not deployed.

The plan recorded that build_ptpt_dictionary.py "generalizes" to French. It
did not. It handled single-character flags and plain PFX/SFX and stopped on
everything else, and fr.aff uses four of the things it stopped on. FLAG long
is the dangerous one: French flags are two characters, so the old reader's
set(flagstr) yields a bag of unrelated letters and expands every entry through
the wrong paradigm without ever erroring. Plus continuation flags (French
really does affix an affixed form), NEEDAFFIX on 68,075 of 84,140 stems, and
FULLSTRIP. Renamed build_hunspell_dictionary.py with a per-language profile,
asserting that CIRCUMFIX and FORBIDDENWORD are still unused rather than
assuming it — and it rebuilds pt-PT byte-identical to the shipped asset, which
is the only thing that makes "generalized" a claim rather than a hope.

Elision was decided by building both halves and measuring. Keeping l'arbre and
its thirty-three siblings: 3,159,832 forms, 8.25 MB gzipped. Dropping them:
473,326 and 1.19 MB. They are not new words, but the tokenizer keeps internal
apostrophes, so they genuinely would have been underlined — so they moved out
of the dictionary into withElision, which splits at a known clitic and still
requires the remainder to be a word (l'zzzz stays flagged). Real nspell: 369 ms
and 74 MB, against pt-PT's 842 ms and 139 MB, on the larger language.

Where the regional trap lives is the mirror image of Portuguese's: every fr_*
Piper voice is fr_FR and Debian's fr_FR/fr_CA/fr_BE dictionaries are one shared
word list, so nothing can be quietly wrong about the country and the whole
decision sits in the copy. What French has instead is the 1990 reform, packaged
three ways; comprehensive ships, because Petal never corrects her French and
coût and cout are both correct.

Then the interim review pass, at the user's suggestion and explicitly "for
now": four models read each Latin pack independently, and only findings at
least two of them reached on their own were applied — five per pack. It earned
its keep on the pack that was already live. pt-PT was carrying pre-Acordo
spellings (adjectivos, actualmente) in a file whose own header commits to
post-Acordo, plus Brazilian decepção, because the Phase 21 greps checked for
Brazilian vocabulary and never checked the pack against its own spelling
policy. That grep now exists and was confirmed to fail on the old text before
being kept. Where reviewers agreed a line was wrong but split on the fix, the
wording is mine and the reasoning is in BUILD_PLAN rather than averaged away.

Still owed, and both packs now say so precisely: a quorum of models agreeing is
agreement, not authority. No native speaker has read either pack, and none of
this has been seen in a browser.

go build/vet/test clean, tsc, vite build, vitest 190/190.

prosolis 24c3533e18 Give read-aloud a Portuguese voice, and a slower one
Phase 21's infra half. Two things the pt-PT pair needs from TTS, and one
thing every learner has wanted since Phase 11.

**A language is no longer a code change.** The handler knew exactly two
languages, named in the Config struct: English on TTS_ENDPOINT and Chinese
on TTS_ENDPOINT_ZH. Petal now discovers its Piper instances from the
environment — English keeps the unsuffixed pair it has always had, and
every other language is a TTS_ENDPOINT_<LANG>/TTS_VOICE_<LANG> pair — so
fr and es cost a compose service and two lines of .env. <LANG> is the base
tag, because an environment variable name cannot hold pt-PT's hyphen and
only one Portuguese model is loaded either way. A language configured by
halves is dropped rather than routed: half a configuration should reach
the client as "no voice here, use Web Speech", not as an instance that
errors on every tap. The startup line now names the voices it actually
resolved rather than the English endpoint it was handed — the same lesson
the dictionary line learned last week.

**pt_PT-tugão-medium is the only European voice Piper ships.** The other
five pt models in the catalogue are Brazilian, so the default anyone
reaches for is the wrong country — the same trap as `dictionary-pt`
packaging VERO, arriving through the catalogue rather than through the
model. Named explicitly in compose, with the query that checks it in the
deploy README.

**The slow replay** (SUGGESTIONS §5e) is `slow: true` on /api/tts, raising
Piper's length_scale to ~4/3. Piper stretches durations rather than
resampling, so it stays a voice instead of a groan. The pace is part of
the cache key — without it the slow replay of a word already heard at
normal speed would be served back at normal speed, which is the one
request where the difference is the whole point. 🐢 sits beside 🔊 on the
word card, the selection bubble and the garden flashcard; the Web Speech
fallback slows too, so the button means the same thing when Piper is down.

**And the other reading gets her own voice.** The `alsoIn` block — the
Portuguese sense of a word that is also English — now speaks in the pair's
locale, which the pack names (`locale`) rather than anything inferring it
from the letters. "comum" is spelled identically in both halves; a
detector would have to guess, and this is the same reason the gloss shows
both directions instead of picking one.

Tests: config discovery (both existing deployment shapes, half-configured
languages dropped, the pre-map voice defaults preserved), the slow scale
and its separate cache entry, pt routing on the base tag with pt-BR
landing on the European instance, and speech.ts's request body. The i18n
shape suite now asserts every pack names a speakable locale in its own
language — and that pt-PT's is not pt-BR.

Verified: go build/vet/test, tsc, vitest 125/125, vite build. Live smoke
against two fake Piper servers: en/pt × normal/slow all reached the right
instance at the right length_scale with four distinct cache entries, and
an unconfigured language still 404s.

prosolis 97e9c269ec Phase 20: the dictionary stops being English and Chinese only
Word lookups now come from DreamDict's dict.db for every pair but Chinese —
opened read-only beside petal.db, no service, nothing over the VPN, because a
hover gloss has to answer in milliseconds.

`Provider` is the two questions the popover and the tooltip already asked, so
the embedded *Lexicon satisfies it with no changes at all; Set.For(lang) is the
single place the choice between them is made. The prerequisite in the dreamdict
repo turned out to be two things, not one: the module path was unfetchable
*and* the query layer sat in internal/, which no other module may import
whatever the module is called. Both fixed upstream.

The plan's central assumption did not survive the data. It mapped
Gloss ← Translate(word, "en", L1) one-to-one; against the real 452 MB database
that table answers for 17% of the 2,000 commonest English words into pt-PT.
Wiktionary's translation sections are thin in that direction — "ephemeral",
"think" and "quickly" have no en→pt-PT row at all. Shared WordNet synsets
answer for 61%, so DreamDict gained Equivalents() and Petal glosses through it.
Ordering those was wrong in an instructive way too: sorting by frequency
glosses "think" as lembrar, "remember", because lembrar is the commoner
Portuguese word even though pensar shares six of think's synsets to lembrar's
one. Counting sense agreement first asks the right question.

The same measurement is why zh stays on ECDICT: DreamDict reaches a Chinese
gloss for 53% of those words, ECDICT for nearly all of them. The plan said
converge only if quality holds. It didn't, so nothing converged.

Two decisions about failure worth keeping. A missing dict.db is not an error —
a laptop checkout has never had one — but a present-and-never-imported one is,
because that is a half-finished deploy. And a pt-PT writer with no dictionary
falls back to the embedded datasets with the gloss suppressed, keeping
definitions, synonyms and phonetics rather than blanking the popover: an empty
field reads as "not found", the wrong language reads as broken.

The new fields surface as an etymology line and a three-band chip. Three, not
five: the difficulty score separates "everyday" from "you'll have to explain
this" but cannot rank obfuscate against serendipity, and a finer scale would be
a confident-looking lie. An unscored word gets no chip.

Writing the tests found two bugs first — trimEtymology sliced by byte, which
would have emitted invalid UTF-8 for exactly the Greek and Latin etymologies
the feature exists for, and its ellipsis path overran its own cap.

go build/vet/test, tsc, vite, vitest 96/96 clean; live smoke against the real
dict.db with one instance flipped from zh to pt-PT mid-run.

Not deployed: go.mod still replaces github.com/prosolis/dreamdict with
../dreamdict, so the Docker build needs the two upstream commits pushed and the
replace dropped. The deployed dict.db also predates DreamDict's Spanish data.

prosolis 1cf207d73f Phase 16: Petal authenticates for itself
Petal is now an OIDC client in its own right rather than trusting a header
from the proxy. The Phase-0 Resolver seam was the only integration point:
main.go picks the session store when Authentik is configured and the static
local user otherwise, and no handler or query moved for either.

internal/auth gains three pieces. session.go issues an opaque cookie token
and stores only its SHA-256, so a database copy yields nothing usable; the
30-day expiry slides on every request, throttled to one write an hour, and
logout deletes the row rather than just the cookie. oidc.go runs the
authorization-code flow with state, nonce and PKCE, and discovers the
provider lazily and on retry — an Authentik outage should block new logins
without stopping Petal booting or invalidating live sessions. users.go
provisions accounts from the token's claims and gates them on an allowlist
that matches emails as well as subject ids, since a subject is an opaque
uuid that doesn't exist until someone has already logged in once.

Migration 0010 lands sessions, images and users.pair_lang together. The
images table closes the capability-URL hole the Phase-0 audit flagged: a
hash was previously enough to fetch anyone's picture. Rows are keyed
(name, user_id) so one file can have several owners and deduplication
survives; a stranger gets 404 rather than 403, the cache header drops to
private, and files already on disk are claimed at startup or every image
already pasted into a document would 404.

On the frontend a single 401 interceptor feeds a warm bilingual sign-in
overlay, drawn over a still-visible editor because nothing has been taken
away. Behind it is the part that matters: a save that comes back 401
stashes its body to localStorage before anything else and stops the
auto-save loop, and reopening that document after signing in merges the
draft back and saves it. An expired session must not cost writing.

Writing the round-trip test against a stub identity provider turned up a
real bug: the one-shot state/nonce/PKCE cookies were cleared in a defer,
which runs after the redirect has written the response header, so the
clearing Set-Cookie was silently dropped and they lingered for their full
ten minutes.

Also swaps the emoji favicon for a drawn sakura, which renders as Petal's
own rose palette everywhere instead of whatever each platform's font
decides, and doubles as the app tile in Authentik.

Migration 0010 verified against a VACUUM INTO copy of the live millenia
database: counts intact, FTS still matching, the one existing image
claimed.

prosolis 2363ef2d37 Make Piper's synthesis path configurable (TTS_PATH)
piper-tts 1.6.0 moved synthesis from POST / to POST /synthesize, with an
identical request body; the VPS sidecars run 1.6.0 and returned 405 to
every read-aloud request, while millenia's older server still expects /.
Rather than pinning both deployments to one Piper release, the path is
configuration -- default "/" keeps millenia working untouched, and the
compose stack sets /synthesize. The container healthcheck moves with it,
since it was probing the old route too.

prosolis 5120b1e5a2 Read-aloud: natural neural voice via local Piper TTS
Replace the browser's robotic Web Speech API (espeak on Chromium) as the
primary read-aloud path with server-side Piper neural TTS, served by petal
and kept fully offline on millenia next to Ollama.

- internal/tts: proxy short passages to Piper, transcode WAV -> mp3/opus via
  ffmpeg, content-addressed disk cache (instant re-taps). Each Piper instance
  loads one voice, so language routes to its own endpoint:{voice}. Unknown
  language -> 404 so the client falls back to Web Speech. UTF-8-safe truncation
  for multibyte (Chinese) text.
- config: TTS_ENDPOINT / TTS_ENDPOINT_ZH / TTS_VOICE_EN / TTS_VOICE_ZH /
  TTS_CACHE_DIR / TTS_TIMEOUT / TTS_AUDIO_FORMAT. Route mounts only when
  TTS_ENDPOINT is set; otherwise unchanged behavior.
- web/audio/speech.ts: speak() hits /api/tts first, falls back to Web Speech on
  any failure; rapid-tap-safe via a request token. Call sites unchanged.
- deploy/: Piper user systemd units (EN :5005, ZH :5006), setup script, README.

English (en_US-amy-medium) and Chinese (zh_CN-huayan-medium) are both live.
