The plan said "Hunspell pt-PT vendored like en-US". Measuring that first is
what saved it: nspell expands affixes eagerly on construction, and European
Portuguese's 1,340 rules over 44,257 stems want over a gigabyte of browser
heap — ~340 MB for the first 12,000 entries, and no return at all after three
minutes on the whole file. So the expansion runs once at build time instead:
1,039,058 forms, 2.66 MB gzipped, read by the same nspell in 842 ms.
The obvious npm package would also have shipped the wrong language. Both
dictionary-pt and dictionary-pt-br carry VERO, the Brazilian word list, so
vendoring by name puts pt-BR spellings behind a pt-PT label — the drift
SUGGESTIONS §3 warns about, arriving through the packaging where no reviewer
can see it. The source is Projecto Natura's, and the build script now asserts
the fault lines (receção in, recepção out) before writing anything.
Spellcheck consults both dictionaries and flags only what both reject, which
is the no-detector answer to a pair with no script boundary. The word card
does the same in the other direction: "data" is a word in both languages, so
Petal shows both readings rather than guessing which she meant.
Writing the tests caught the one real bug — extendedAlphabet was a snapshot
while correct/suggest read live, and her dictionary arrives after English, so
every lookup would have resolved "cora" while the underlines were already
right.
Not done, and not claimed: the pack has not been read by a pt-PT speaker, and
the Piper voice is deferred with the deploy.

Claire's writing — 8 documents, 33 snapshots, 103 suggestions, 3 vocabulary
words and an image — now belongs to her account rather than to the pre-auth
'local' user, and the VPS is canonical. millenia was left running and
untouched as a frozen fallback; it diverges the moment either side is
written to, so it wants retiring rather than syncing.
The plan's stated prerequisite, that she log in once so her subject exists,
turned out to be false. Authentik's hashed_user_id sub is the user's uid,
derived from her id and the instance secret, so it can be read in advance —
which means the data moves first and she signs in to find her writing
already there, instead of to an empty Petal that fills in later.
The fix here is to the liveness guard, and it is the second attempt at it.
PRAGMA locking_mode = EXCLUSIVE goes on holding its lock after being set
back to NORMAL — SQLite only lets go on that connection's next database
access — so against a real WAL database the script locked itself out of its
own VACUUM INTO backup. It passed locally because the test database had
come out of VACUUM INTO and so was never in WAL mode: the fixture didn't
look like production, the same way the stub identity provider's slashless
issuer didn't. The probe now runs on its own connection and closes it.

The destination is an OIDC subject id, which the app cannot know — it
belongs to the identity provider — so this runs deliberately, with Petal
stopped and a backup taken, rather than as a startup migration. documents,
tags, vocab_words and images carry user_id directly; versions, suggestions
and tag assignments hang off their parents and follow, which is why it has
to be one transaction with foreign keys off. Sessions for the old identity
are deleted rather than moved: a session is proof someone signed in, and
nobody ever signed in as 'local'.
Dry run by default, VACUUM INTO backup first, and it verifies every row it
expected to move actually moved — and that the source is left owning
nothing — before committing.
The 'is the app stopped?' guard took two attempts. BEGIN EXCLUSIVE, the
obvious check, sails past a running-but-idle Petal because in WAL mode it
only conflicts with another writer, which is precisely the case worth
catching. PRAGMA locking_mode = EXCLUSIVE conflicts with any connection at
all, since it locks the shared-memory index every WAL reader maps.
Sequencing this also turned up a crash waiting to happen: the image
backfill claims unowned files for 'local', which no longer exists after a
migration, and the resulting foreign-key error is fatal inside images.New.
Petal would have crash-looped the first time it started on a migrated
database. It now skips a missing owner, which costs nothing — the
migration moves the image rows itself.

Writer power-ups (Phase 11), plus the selection-bubble vs copy/paste fix.
- Find & Replace (Ctrl/Cmd+F): SearchHighlight decoration extension +
FindReplace bar (match-case, replace-all back-to-front, scroll without
popping the selection bubble).
- Read-aloud (Web Speech, offline) on the word card and selection bubble.
- Keyboard/touch access to the ESL helpers: Ctrl/Cmd+D look up word at caret,
Ctrl/Cmd+J rewrite selection, touch long-press lookup. Refactored the
right-click handler into a shared openWordLookup(pos).
- Whole-corpus backup: GET /api/docs/export-all zips every doc (md/docx),
de-dupes filenames, dated name; sidebar download links. TestExportAll.
- Smart typography input rules (curly quotes/em-dash/ellipsis), ASCII-only so
CJK is untouched.
- Duplicate doc, sidebar sort (Recent/Title/Longest), toolbar outline popover.
- English phonetic (chosen over pinyin for an English learner): ECDICT-built
phonetic.json.gz (46,579 words) + Result.Phonetic + WordCard IPA line;
scripts/build_phonetic.py (full build + --seed fallback).
- Selection bubble no longer blocks copy/paste: deferred to pointer-up and made
click-through except on its buttons.

Add a fixed, GPU-driven petal layer that drifts soft blossoms over the
page (sparse, translucent, paused when hidden, skipped under
prefers-reduced-motion). Add a synthesized cute sound palette — bubble
pop, water droplet, soft bell, sparkle, cheer — generated as embedded
WAV assets (scripts/gen_sounds.py) and played through a quiet Web Audio
bus with soft-clipping and a persisted mute toggle in the status bar.
Sounds fire per suggestion type when fresh advice arrives (staggered,
old pending advice stays silent) and on companion bubbles by tone.

Inline Chinese gloss (offline) and a "say it more naturally" / tone-rewrite,
the two ESL features for the Mandarin-speaking writer.
Gloss: embedded English→Chinese dictionary (gloss.json.gz, 57k common words
built from ECDICT via scripts/build_gloss.py). lexicon gains Gloss()/Result.Gloss
and a lightweight GET /api/gloss/{word}; the right-click WordCard leads with the
中文; GlossTip shows it on a 350ms hover (reuses wordAt, so CJK is never glossed).
Offline + instant, works with the LLM down.
Rewrite: selecting text pops a SelectionBubble (✨更自然 + the tone vocabulary);
picking a style calls POST /api/docs/:id/rewrite (llm.RunRewrite, stateless,
owner-scoped) and shows a RewritePreview (original→rewrite, accept/cancel/retry).
Accept applies it in-editor.
Tests added in lexicon and suggestions. go build/vet/test, tsc, vite all clean;
live smoke vs a fake vLLM verified gloss + rewrite + 400/404/502 paths.
