prosolis 6d71276513 Auth: pass the OIDC issuer through untouched, trailing slash and all
Deploying against the real Authentik turned this up immediately: its issuer
ends in a slash, OIDC requires the discovered issuer to match the configured
one byte-for-byte, and trimming it made discovery fail every time. The stub
in the tests happened to advertise a slashless issuer, so the whole suite
passed while the only provider Petal actually talks to could not be reached.
The stub now takes its issuer as a knob, and a regression test runs the flow
against one that ends in a slash.

🌸 Petal

A self-hosted, privacy-first writing editor with warm bubbly design, auto-save, and local-LLM grammar/ESL suggestions. See petal-spec.md for the full design spec and BUILD_PLAN.md for build progress.

Stack

Go + chi backend · SQLite (modernc, pure Go) · React + Vite + Tiptap + Tailwind v4 frontend · local vLLM/Ollama for AI suggestions. Single-binary deployment (frontend embedded via go:embed).

Local development

Two processes during development:

# 1. Backend (serves /api on :8080)
go run ./cmd/server

# 2. Frontend dev server (HMR on :5173, proxies /api → :8080)
cd web && npm install && npm run dev

Open http://localhost:5173 while developing.

Production build (single binary)

cd web && npm run build      # emits web/dist (embedded by the Go binary)
cd .. && go build -o petal ./cmd/server
./petal                      # serves UI + API on :8080

Configuration is via environment variables — copy .env.example to .env.

Deployment

docker compose up -d --build     # petal + the two Piper read-aloud sidecars

Behind Traefik on the parodia.dev VPS; vLLM stays on millenia over headscale. Full runbook — first deploy, the LLM link, backups and restore — in deploy/README.md.

Status

Early build, multi-session. Auth (Authentik OIDC) is next; Copyleaks plagiarism is still parked — see BUILD_PLAN.md.
