test(node): cover the sweep's boot wiring and prove an interrupted push never reaches the upload

Two claims from earlier commits were argued rather than executed. Both are now
observed.

The legacy-CID sweep's spawn sat inline in main() where no test could reach it,
so the batch size, the inter-batch delay, the detachment and the shutdown select
were all reasoned. The block moves verbatim into `spawn_legacy_cid_sweep`, which
a test calls directly. It seeds rows whose keys are already canonical, so the
cost gate skips each and the persisted cursor reads out walk progress cleanly,
then asserts the cursor stops at the configured batch boundary, the call returns
without blocking, the task is still alive inside its delay, and shutdown ends it.
Never spawning, reading the batch or delay from the wrong knob, or removing the
shutdown branch each turns it red. What remains reasoned is the single call line
inside main(), down from a twenty-six line block.

The claim that a disconnect-interrupted push never uploads to Tigris was
structural: the tests build the store with no Tigris client, so a counter inside
the client arm could never move and would have proved nothing. The counter now
sits at the upload decision, before the client is consulted, and the disconnect
test asserts zero while the success test asserts exactly one. That positive
control is what makes the zero meaningful, and it is itself load-bearing:
releasing the success path with failure semantics drops it to zero, and adding a
Drop impl that uploads raises the disconnect count to one.

The counter observes reaching the upload site, not an S3 request. TigrisClient
wraps a concrete SDK client with no injectable endpoint, and plumbing one through
would be out of proportion to the risk here.

-# Contributor guide for coding agents
-
-This file carries the rules a patch author cannot recover from the code alone, for humans and coding agents alike. For build, test, and PR basics, read `CONTRIBUTING.md` first.
-
-## Authorization invariants (the rules PRs most often break)
-
-Every repo-scoped endpoint must bind the caller to an authorization decision before serving or mutating anything. The `known_ungated` allowlist in `authz_guard::every_repo_scoped_handler_is_gated` is empty on main: `list_webhooks`, `list_replicas`, and `list_protected_branches` are gated (`list_webhooks` with read-visibility then owner; the other two with `authorize_repo_read`). Do not re-open those surfaces as exceptions.
-
-- Owner-only mutations (visibility, webhooks, protected branches, merges) are gated against the repo owner. Three gate forms are in use and all are recognized: webhooks and merges call `require_repo_owner` (`crates/gitlawb-node/src/api/mod.rs`), visibility uses its module-local `require_owner`, and protected branches compare inline with `did_matches`. Use the form the surrounding module already uses.
-- Not every write is owner-only, and that is by design: `star_repo`/`unstar_repo` bind to the signer (they still require repo read access), `register_replica`/`unregister_replica` bind to the replica's own DID, the bounty actions (claim, submit, approve, cancel, dispute) have their own multi-party rules, and closing a PR or issue is owner-or-author. Do not add owner gates to these.
-- Content-serving reads (blobs, trees, raw files) gate through `authorize_repo_read` with the specific path being served, so a withheld subtree is denied even on an otherwise-public repo; repo-level reads (listings) pass `"/"` by the helper's own contract. The source scans below cannot check this argument's value, so review will.
-- A route that reaches repo data through a global id, with no repo in its path, or through an extractor shape the scans do not recognize still needs the same gate; the scans cannot see those.
-- Read-surface denials must not reveal existence: a caller who may not read a repo (or a withheld subtree) gets the same 404 as a missing repo, never a 403. (Owner-gated mutations currently return 403 after the repo lookup; do not widen that shape to read paths.)
-- Two tests in module `authz_guard` (`crates/gitlawb-node/src/api/mod.rs`) scan handler sources and fail on a repo-scoped handler without a recognized gate: `every_in_scope_mutation_has_its_gate` and `every_repo_scoped_handler_is_gated`. If they fail on your handler, add the gate. The second test's `known_ungated` allowlist is empty; never add an entry to it without an open issue and review.

-- A new gated handler needs tests proving its route-specific gate fires: exercise an unauthorized authenticated caller and an anonymous caller where applicable, assert the exact denial status each way, and assert the body leaks nothing. The non-owner tests in `crates/gitlawb-node/src/test_support.rs` show the shape for owner-gated routes.
-- A new mutation handler also gets a row in `every_in_scope_mutation_has_its_gate` naming its gate type; the per-handler row is the point of that test.
-- A table-driven deny suite covering every deny-bearing route is in review (#194, #195). If it is present in your checkout, add a probe row there for any new deny-bearing route.
-
-## Verifying signatures and certificates
-
-- Derive the verifying key from something outside the artifact you are checking: the node's own DID, a pinned or configured value, a peers lookup. A key read from a field of the object being verified (`Did::from_str(&cert.node_did)`) only proves the artifact is self-consistent, and identities here are permissionless, so anyone can mint a keypair, name it in the artifact, self-sign, and be told it is valid. A mismatch against that anchor has to fail the result, not log a warning.
-- A handler whose correct answer is "valid" needs a positive case driven by a trusted, independently anchored artifact, and a rejection case for a well-formed, fully populated forged artifact. Invalid-only suites miss an implementation that rejects everything; a forged artifact that still returns valid is the regression that matters.
-- The fields a signature covers are a versioned format. Adding one invalidates every artifact already signed, so give the payload a version, keep a path that verifies the older form, and add a test that verifies an artifact signed before your change.
-
-## Removing a serving path
-
-When a fix removes a path that used to serve content, the same PR must add a test asserting the removed path now denies. The deletion is what turns that test green; without it the path can quietly come back.
-
-## Database migrations
-
-Schema changes are code-defined in `MIGRATIONS` (`crates/gitlawb-node/src/db/mod.rs`). Always append a new versioned entry; never edit an entry that has merged (operators deploy from main). Test runs build the schema from scratch, so editing an applied version stays green in CI while breaking every existing deployment.
-
-## Client behavior (`gl`, `git-remote-gitlawb`)
-
-When a node denies a request, surface the denial to the user. Never render a denial as an empty list or a silent success; that turns an authorization boundary into invisible data loss.
-
-## Toolchain and CI reality
-
-- MSRV is Rust 1.91 (`rust-version` in the workspace `Cargo.toml`). The MSRV CI job runs `cargo check --workspace --all-targets` on exactly 1.91, so check that an API you rely on is stable there; the full test suite runs on stable.
-- The PR workflow runs these jobs on every PR: `cargo fmt --check`, `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings`, `cargo test --workspace` (against Postgres), a release build, `cargo audit`, the MSRV check, and a Docker build. The `main` branch ruleset currently requires one approving review but does not require these checks to pass before merge; a failing job should block review approval in practice, but nothing enforces that mechanically today.
-- Conventional commit titles (`feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`, ...) are required by convention and drive releases, but no CI job checks them; a bad title fails review, not the pipeline.

+Most git hosting today depends on a small number of centralized platforms. Gitlawb Nodes are designed for a different model:
 
-- **Own your identity**: every user, agent, and node is an Ed25519 keypair represented as `did:key:z6Mk...`.
-- **Signed writes by default**: write requests use RFC 9421 HTTP Signatures instead of passwords.
-- **Git-native transport**: repositories are still real git repositories served over smart HTTP.
-- **Agent-native workflows**: the `gl` CLI and MCP server expose repo, issue, task, PR, and UCAN flows to AI agents.
-- **Peer-aware delivery**: nodes can announce, discover, gossip, and sync with each other.
-- **App CDN direction**: the network can evolve from decentralized code storage into code + asset + app delivery.

 Known limitations:
 
-- Repository write authorization is secure by default: `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH` defaults to `true`, so a valid HTTP Signature identifies a pusher and the node additionally requires that pusher to be the repository owner. Set `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=false` only for the duration of a rolling upgrade whose pushers are not yet the repo owner. Authentication is not authorization on its own (anyone can mint a `did:key` and sign), so owner enforcement is the only thing that prevents every signed caller from pushing to every repository, private ones included.
-- UCAN proof chains are validated when supplied, but UCAN capabilities are not consulted by write authorization and the root issuer is not independently trust-anchored. UCANs therefore do not yet grant scoped collaborator access.
-- Agent lifecycle revocation is not enforced by HTTP Signature authorization; do not rely on removing or revoking an agent record to block a compromised signer.
-- Read visibility is not a blanket data-classification boundary: task, IPFS-pin, and Arweave-anchor listings are not repository-gated; withheld path names can be visible to a root reader; and later visibility changes cannot retract content already announced or externally anchored.
+- Private repository read enforcement is not wired yet. Treat public nodes as public infrastructure unless you restrict access at your proxy/firewall.
+- UCAN chain validation and revocation are not complete.
+- Repository write authorization is not capability-complete yet; HTTP signatures prove identity, not full authorization policy.

-answers 503 with a resume token instead of a false "not found", and `gl ipfs get`
-follows the token automatically: up to 8 resumes after the first request, so at
-most 9 calls to the node, waiting between attempts for as long as the node's
-`Retry-After` asks and never longer than 5 seconds.

-the search, not the download: each attempt gets the time left on it to produce
-response headers, and once an object is found its bytes stream outside that
-deadline. They are not unbounded, though. The client's own 30 second HTTP timeout
-is a total request timeout, running from the start of a request until its body
-has finished, so a transfer still going 30 seconds after its request began is cut
-off. Waits between attempts never run past the deadline either, so a single run

-Two node-side brakes end a ladder early and are reported rather than retried
-around. A 429 is terminal, because the node's rate-limit window is an hour and

-The flag is not HTTP-only. It also gates inbound gossip ref-update events on the libp2p mesh, which carry an Ed25519 payload signature rather than RFC 9421 headers because there are no HTTP headers to sign. Set to `true`, an unsigned gossip event is dropped. Set to `false`, an unsigned event is accepted with a warning during the rolling-upgrade window, and the write budget it consumes is charged to the forwarding peer rather than to the DID it claims, since an unsigned event's claimed DID is asserted and not proven. A present-but-invalid signature is refused in both modes; that is forgery, not an un-upgraded peer.
-
-Because the flag now spans both transports, the rollout order matters in one direction: **upgrade every gossip-publishing peer to a build that signs events before you set this to `true`.** Enabling it while an old publisher is still live drops that publisher's ref-updates on arrival, and the publisher sees no error, because gossip has no response to carry one. Upgrading the HTTP peers alone is not sufficient.
-
-There is a second precondition on gossip ingest that the flag does not control. A publisher's `node_did` must already exist in the receiving node's peers table, or the event is dropped as an unknown peer DID. This holds in both modes, signed and unsigned alike: a valid signature proves key possession, not membership. Rows reach that table over HTTP, either from `GITLAWB_BOOTSTRAP_PEERS` when this node contacts a bootstrap peer and records the DID it reports, or from a prior `POST /api/v1/peers/announce`. So a peer that only ever joined the libp2p mesh, with no HTTP announce and no bootstrap contact in either direction, will have its ref-updates dropped even with a good signature and the flag off. If gossip is silently not landing from a peer you can see on the mesh, check that its DID is in `GET /api/v1/peers` on the receiving side first.

-| `GITLAWB_P2P_KEY` | Path to the node's persistent libp2p identity key file, which fixes the PeerId across restarts. Must name a key file inside a directory, such as `/data/keys/p2p.key` or `./keys/p2p.key`. Two kinds of problem are handled differently. A value that cannot name a securable key file at all (a bare filename, `..` traversal, a trailing `/`, the filesystem root, or a `~/` path that escapes home) is refused before the node binds, so the process exits. Anything wrong with the storage itself (a symlinked or non-directory parent, an unsafe ancestor or working directory, an unreadable or malformed key) leaves p2p off while HTTP keeps serving; the node logs it at error level as `p2p_identity_key_load_failed` and sets the `gitlawb_p2p_identity_key_load_failed` metric to 1. Note that `/health` still reports healthy in that state, so alert on the log event or the metric rather than on the health check. Correcting the storage and restarting restores the same PeerId. On Unix a new key is created `0600` inside a `0700` directory. A key directory that grants access beyond its owner is tightened to `0700` on start; one that is closed too far is refused with a `chmod 700` remedy rather than widened, since a directory locked down on purpose is an operator decision. Rotate the key only when the node logs that the directory was group- or world-writable (or the key file itself was group- or world-readable). An ordinary `0755` directory is tightened too, but others could not read a `0600` key or replace its directory entry. An existing key file is never modified: one with group or other bits set is rejected (`chmod 600`), and so is one this node cannot read. On other platforms no permissions are enforced.

Anonymous reads draw from this pool, so pair it with `GITLAWB_MAX_CONCURRENT_READS_PER_CALLER`. Pushes and the receive-pack advertisement have their own pools, so a read flood cannot shed an authenticated push. Default 128. |

The anon receive-pack `info/refs` advertisement runs in a third pool of the same size, disjoint from both, so an advertisement flood cannot shed a push either. Two per-source push caps are derived from this value (`/8`, floor 1) and have no env var of their own. Over-cap sheds a 503 + Retry-After. Default 32. |
-| `GITLAWB_MAX_CONCURRENT_READS_PER_CALLER` | Max concurrent read ops a single caller may hold, so one caller cannot monopolize the read pool. Keyed on the resolved source IP, never the DID, and only as granular as `GITLAWB_TRUSTED_PROXY`: left unset, a node behind an edge or NAT keys every caller on the edge IP and this collapses to one global cap. Default 16. |
-| `GITLAWB_MAX_CONCURRENT_PIN_TASKS` | Max post-push pin loops (IPFS + Pinata) running concurrently across all repos. This caps how many loops RUN at once, not how much object-id list memory the node retains: on the local IPFS path a loop parked waiting for a permit still holds its full list. Do not size memory from this knob alone. A loop over cap waits, never drops a pin. Default 8. |
-| `GITLAWB_REPO_LEASE_MAX_WAITERS` | Max pushes parked at once waiting for the same repo's write lease. Each waiter pins its buffered pack body, so this bounds that memory for a hot repo; past the cap the newest push sheds a 503 + Retry-After instead of queueing. Pushes to other repos are unaffected, and the lease holder is not counted. Default 8. |
 | `GITLAWB_MAX_CONCURRENT_IPFS_WALKS` | Max concurrent `GET /ipfs/{cid}` visibility walks across all callers (own pool, disjoint from the served-git pools); over-cap sheds 503. Default 32. |

-| `GITLAWB_IPFS_MAX_LEGACY_PROBES` | Max legacy (NULL-provenance) repos probed per `/ipfs/{cid}` request, bounding the scan-fallback fan-out. A truncated scan returns a retryable 503, not a false 404. Default 256. |
-| `GITLAWB_IPFS_MAX_LEGACY_SCAN_ROWS` | Max repo rows one `/ipfs/{cid}` request's legacy scan may read from the database. The probe ceiling above only starts counting once a probe runs, and quarantined or private repos are denied before that, so this is what bounds a scan over an inventory that denies the caller everywhere. A truncated scan sheds a retryable 503 carrying an opaque `continuation` token; echoing it as `?scan=` resumes the scan where it stopped. Every per-request ceiling on this path (rows, probes, visits, retained rule bytes) mints one, so each request advances the ladder by at least the rows it read and a holder buried past a ceiling is reached in a bounded number of requests, `ceil(repos / ceiling) + 1` when this row ceiling is the one that binds. No ceiling ever produces a 404. Every page is charged to the caller's `/ipfs` work allowance, so raising this raises that allowance too. Lowering it sharpens an oracle: because a truncation emits a token and a completed wrap does not, laddering to the end reveals the node's total repo count (private and quarantined included) to within one ceiling. Default 2048. |
-| `GITLAWB_IPFS_MAX_REPOS_WALKED` | Max expensive path-scope visibility walks a `/ipfs/{cid}` request may run per phase; over-cap repos are skipped and the scan continues, shedding a retryable 503 (not a false 404) if the object is then found nowhere. The effective cap is the tighter of this knob and the node's internal history-walk ceiling of 17 (`MAX_PIN_SOURCES + 1`), so a value above 17 has no effect while a value below it does tighten the cap. It is charged per phase: the provenance lookup and the legacy-scan fallback get separate equal budgets, so one request can run up to twice the cap in total. Default 64. |
-| `GITLAWB_IPFS_MAX_REPO_VISITS` | Ceiling on repos one `/ipfs/{cid}` request may visit (acquire + probe) past the visibility gate. Also the worst-case per-request Tigris fetch count. On exhaustion the scan stops with a retryable 503. Default 1024. |
-| `GITLAWB_IPFS_REQUEST_BUDGET_SECS` | Absolute wall-clock budget for one admitted `/ipfs/{cid}` request's acquire+walk lifetime. Per-stage clamps bound the acquire and walk stages to the remaining budget, and no stage starts once it is exhausted; the scan then stops with a retryable 503. The object-type probe and content-read `cat-file` subprocesses are budget-checked before starting and each also run under their own deadline (the lesser of `GITLAWB_GIT_SERVICE_TIMEOUT_SECS` and the remaining budget), reaped via process-group teardown, so a hung `cat-file` cannot hold the request's walk slot past it. One hang path is still unbounded: the probe's object-store readability check is a plain filesystem sweep with nothing to reap, so a wedged filesystem can hold the slot past the deadline. Default 600. Accepted range is 1 to 3153600000 (100 years), since the node derives a deadline from this value and a larger one cannot be represented. |
-| `GITLAWB_IPFS_RESOLVE_BUDGET_SECS` | Shorter budget for the pre-walk CID resolve inside an admitted `/ipfs/{cid}` request: the lookup that maps the requested CID to its git oid(s), which runs while the scarce walk admission is already held. A well-formed CID with no pin row does no probe and no walk work, so without this it could hold a walk slot for the whole request budget while nothing walked, and enough such requests shed every real retrieval at admission. The effective deadline is the lesser of this and the remaining request budget, so a value above `GITLAWB_IPFS_REQUEST_BUDGET_SECS` degrades to the request budget. Only the resolve is on this clock; walk and probe work stay on the request budget, so a slow but progressing scan is never shed by it. Default 10. Accepted range is 1 to 3153600000 (100 years). |

 Legacy-pin window: releases before the CID-resolver work stored the provider CID (Kubo dag-pb / Pinata) as a pinned object's resolver key. The `/ipfs/{cid}` resolver now recomputes the raw-content CID from the object bytes and refuses to serve a key that does not match, so `GET /api/v1/ipfs/pins` can still advertise an unrepaired legacy CID that 404s. Such a row is repaired opportunistically the next time a push carries the object again (its key is rewritten to the raw CID, the old value kept in `legacy_provider_cid`), but git negotiation omits objects the node already has, so most legacy rows never re-enter a push delta. A deferred one-shot startup sweep, not this opportunistic path, is what fully retires the advertise-then-404 window. Rows whose object bytes are gone stay withheld.

-  suffix, or drop it and let identify supply the current one. Addresses without
-  the suffix keep working untouched.
-- `GITLAWB_P2P_KEY` must name a key file inside a directory, such as
-  `/data/keys/p2p.key` or `./keys/p2p.key`. A bare filename is refused at
-  startup, since the node will not keep its identity key in the working
-  directory.

-## Known Limitations
+## Known Limitations (Planned for v0.2)
 
-These are documented limitations of the current live release. They should be prioritized without breaking existing nodes during rolling upgrades.
+These are **documented, accepted limitations** for the current live release and should be prioritized without breaking existing nodes during rolling upgrades.
 
-### Repository write authorization defaults
-- `git-receive-pack` verifies HTTP Signatures and, with the default configuration, also requires the pusher DID to be the repository owner: `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH` defaults to `true`.
-- **Impact:** With the default setting, a valid signature authenticates the pusher *and* the pusher must be the repository owner. Authentication is not authorization on its own — anyone can mint a `did:key` and sign — so owner enforcement is the only thing that prevents every signed caller from pushing to every repository, including private ones.
-- **Mitigation:** `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=false` is the explicit rolling-upgrade compatibility override. Disable it only for the duration of an upgrade whose pushers are not yet the repo owner, then turn it back on. Delegated and CI keys count as non-owners: a UCAN `git/push` capability is verified but not yet honored for authorization, so they cannot push while this is on.
+### UCAN chain validation
+- The auth middleware verifies HTTP Signatures and token structure, but does not yet walk the full UCAN delegation chain.
+- **Impact:** A node cannot yet enforce fine-grained capability delegation. Currently, any registered agent with a valid HTTP Signature can push.
+- **Mitigation:** Keep write endpoints signed, treat public nodes as public infrastructure, and treat trust scores as soft rate-limiting signals rather than authorization.
+- **Fix target:** v0.2
 
-### UCAN delegation and revocation
-- The middleware validates a supplied UCAN's complete proof chain, but a root token is accepted without an independently trusted issuer anchor. `Ucan::can` is not yet used by write handlers, so a UCAN does not grant scoped repository access.
-- Agent lifecycle revocation is not checked by HTTP Signature authorization. Removing or revoking an agent record does not itself block a compromised DID from authenticating.
-- **Impact:** Do not use UCANs for collaborator permissions or rely on agent-record revocation as a key-compromise response.
-- **Mitigation:** Keep sensitive deployments behind operational network controls and enable owner-only push enforcement where it fits the deployment until trusted delegation and authorization-aware revocation are implemented.
+### UCAN revocation
+- Issued UCAN tokens cannot be revoked before expiry.
+- **Impact:** If a keypair is compromised, the attacker retains access until the UCAN expires (default: 30 days).
+- **Mitigation:** Regenerate your identity (`gl identity new --force`) and re-register to issue a new UCAN. Until revocation/blocklisting is implemented, operators should remove compromised DIDs directly from their local database.
+- **Fix target:** v0.2
 
 ### git-receive-pack authentication
 - The `git-receive-pack` endpoint enforces HTTP Signature auth. Plain Git smart-HTTP clients do not generate those headers, so the `git-remote-gitlawb` helper is required for pushes.

 - **Fix target:** v0.2
 
 ### Private repository reads
-- Repository and path-scoped visibility checks are enforced for repository API and Git content reads. A denied whole-repository or root read returns the same 404 shape as a missing repository, so the denial does not reveal private-repository existence.
-- Sparse-clone support exposes withheld path globs to callers who may read the repository root. Do not put sensitive information in withheld path names.
-- `GET /api/v1/tasks`, `/api/v1/ipfs/pins`, and `/api/v1/arweave/anchors` are not repository-gated. Task records include a UCAN token; pin and anchor listings expose object and ref metadata.
-- Changing a repository's visibility controls future serving, but cannot retract ref metadata or configured external pins and anchors already announced while the repository was public. Do not push secrets to an announceable repository.
-- **Impact:** Visibility policies protect the repository and Git content routes they gate, not every metadata endpoint or previously published content.
-- **Remaining boundary:** This read control does not address the independent write-authorization and UCAN-delegation limitations described above.
-
-### Pull-request review enforcement
-- Pull-request review comments are not yet threaded or line-anchored, and merges do not enforce required approvals.
-- **Impact:** Teams must use their own review policy or external controls for merge approval requirements.
-
-### GraphQL mutation coverage
-- Existing GraphQL mutations require an authenticated signer, but a mutation-specific source-level guardrail has not yet been added for future mutations.
-- **Impact:** A new mutation could accidentally omit its signer check without an explicit test fence.
+- Repository records have an `is_public` field and the node exposes `GITLAWB_PUBLIC_READ`, but per-repository private-read enforcement is not wired in the current live release.
+- **Impact:** Do not store private repositories or secrets on public nodes.
+- **Mitigation:** Run isolated nodes for non-public data and restrict network access at the reverse proxy or firewall layer.
+- **Fix target:** v0.2
 
 ### Peer route hardening rollout
 - Peer announce and sync notification routes accept signed requests and verify DID matches when a signature is present.

-- **Unauthenticated writes** — HTTP Signature auth on protected write endpoints; see Known Limitations for owner and capability authorization gaps
+gitlawb is designed to be secure against:
+- **Unauthorized writes** — HTTP Signature auth on all write endpoints
 - **Tampered git objects** — CIDv1 content addressing detects modification
 - **Identity spoofing** — DIDs derived from public keys, unforgeable without the private key
 - **Centralized takedown** — no single point of control; data on IPFS + Arweave
 
-Twigpine is **not yet** designed to defend against:
+gitlawb is **not yet** designed to defend against:
 - A compromised node operator (node operators are trusted for their own node)
 - Sybil attacks on the DHT (trust score system mitigates, not eliminates)
 - Timing attacks on signature verification (not constant-time compared in v0.1)

-//! Both `gl` (async) and `git-remote-gitlawb` (blocking) attach RFC 9421
-//! `Signature` and `Signature-Input` headers, and reqwest strips only
-//! `Authorization`, `Cookie`, `Proxy-Authorization` and `WWW-Authenticate` when a

-//! answering 302 could hand a working credential to a host of its choosing and read
-//! as the caller anywhere until the clock-skew window closes. On a 307/308 the
-//! request body goes along with it, which for the remote helper is the pack.
-//!
-//! That same missing authority component is why the predicate also pins the
-//! request-target: `@path` is signed as the client sent it and verified as the node
-//! received it, so a same-origin hop that rewrites the path or the query (a
-//! trailing-slash or query normalization) makes the signature cover a target the
-//! node never saw and the read 401s. Only a hop that re-issues the identical target,
-//! an http-to-https upgrade being the one that matters in practice, is followed.
-//!
-//! The decision lives here rather than in either client because the two used to
-//! disagree: `gl` was scoped to the origin while the remote helper, the binary that
-//! actually runs `git clone gitlawb://`, still ran reqwest's default and followed
-//! anywhere. One predicate is what keeps a future third client from repeating that.
-//!
-//! The type is `url::Url`, which is what `reqwest::Url` re-exports, so both clients
-//! pass their attempt URLs straight in.
-
-/// Longest redirect chain followed. `reqwest::redirect::Policy::custom` replaces
-/// reqwest's built-in limit, so the bound has to be restated by every client that
-/// installs a custom policy; the value is reqwest's own default.
-///
-/// This counts FOLLOWS, matching `Policy::limited`: reqwest pushes the redirecting
-/// URL onto `previous` before consulting the policy, and `Limit(max)` refuses once
-/// `previous.len() > max`, so a caller comparing against this constant must use `>`
-/// too or it permits one hop fewer than it says.

-/// Follow a redirect only when it stays on the origin that issued it AND re-issues

-///
-/// `Policy::none()` would have been the simpler answer, but one same-origin redirect
-/// shape is legitimate here: a node fronted by a proxy that upgrades http to https,
-/// or otherwise re-issues the same path and query, so the policy is scoped rather
-/// than switched off.
-///
-/// Path and query must match exactly, and that is the request-target clause rather
-/// than an origin one. `@path` is signed as the client sent it and verified as the
-/// node received it, so a hop that rewrites either half leaves a signature covering
-/// a target nobody asked for and the node answers 401. Refusing the hop turns a
-/// confusing 401 into the 3xx that names what actually happened. One policy covers
-/// signed and unsigned callers alike, for the same reason the predicate is shared:
-/// two rules would drift.
-///
-/// The clause pins `@path`, and only `@path`. A Twigpine signature also covers
-/// `@method` and `content-digest`, and both of those are still open on a followed
-/// hop: on a 301, 302 or 303, reqwest 0.12.28 delegates to tower-http's
-/// `FollowRedirect`, which rewrites a POST to a GET and empties the body
-/// (tower-http-0.6.8 `src/follow_redirect/mod.rs:273-285`), while its
-/// `drop_payload_headers` removes only `Content-Type`, `Content-Length`,
-/// `Content-Encoding` and `Transfer-Encoding`. So `Signature`, `Signature-Input` and
-/// `Content-Digest` ride along on a request that no longer has the method or the body
-/// they were computed over. Only 307 and 308 preserve both. This predicate returning
-/// true therefore makes a GET-shaped hop safe to replay against the node's verifier
-/// and says nothing about a bodied one: a signed write must not rely on it alone.
-///
-/// `Url::query` is `None` for `/a` and `Some("")` for `/a?`, and those are two
-/// different request-targets on the node side too, so the comparison is strict and
-/// needs no special case.
-///
-/// Host and port must match exactly. Port is compared as `Url::port`, which is
-/// `None` for a scheme's default port, so http -> https on the same host compares
-/// equal while http -> http on a different port does not. A downgrade from https to
-/// http is refused as well: the target is the same host, but the signature would go
-/// out in cleartext, which is the same credential leak by a slower route.
-///
-/// Host comparison rides on `url`'s parse-time normalization (lowercasing and IDN

-//! Sealed continuation token for the node's bounded legacy CID scan (INV-13).
-//!
-//! The `/ipfs/{cid}` resolver's legacy scan stops at a row ceiling and sheds a
-//! retryable 503. To let a holder buried past that ceiling still be reached, the
-//! shed carries the scan position so the caller can echo it back and resume. The
-//! whole point of the design is that the node keeps NO server-side scan state: the
-//! position rides in the caller's token.
-//!
-//! That makes the token an EMITTED continuation derived from a FETCHED row, and on
-//! a scan that served nothing every fetched row is by construction a private or
-//! quarantined repo the caller may not read. The row's `created_at` leaks its
-//! creation time and its `id` carries the owner's DID, so both halves are withheld
-//! fields and the token must be CONFIDENTIAL, not merely tamper-evident:
-//!
-//!   * AEAD-sealed (XChaCha20-Poly1305), never base64-of-plaintext and never
-//!     signed plaintext. Integrity is not confidentiality.
-//!   * A fresh `OsRng` nonce on EVERY seal. Under a stream cipher a repeated nonce
-//!     means repeated keystream, and an attacker who can force the node to seal a
-//!     position whose plaintext they know XORs two tokens and recovers a withheld
-//!     row's fields in full, strictly worse than emitting plaintext.
-//!   * FIXED-WIDTH plaintext. AEAD ciphertext is plaintext-length plus the tag, and
-//!     every field of a scan position varies in length, so a variable encoding would
-//!     make token LENGTH a side channel for the sealed row (a short name under a
-//!     short owner vs a long one) and for the candidate oid's width (40 hex on a
-//!     sha1 repo, 64 on a sha256 one). Every token this module mints is byte-identical
-//!     in length. Each field is padded to its own separate width, which is a per-field
-//!     constant and so still leaks nothing about a given row or candidate.
-//!   * The canonical CID as associated data, so a token minted while scanning for
-//!     one CID does not authenticate when replayed against another.
-//!
-//! Every failure to open (wrong key, tampered bytes, wrong CID, expired, malformed)
-//! returns the same `None`. The caller treats that as "no token" and starts at the
-//! front, so no failure class is distinguishable and the token is no oracle.

-//! The publication boundary: WHO wrote, and HOW FAR that write got.
-//!
-//! Four lifecycle defects on this branch shared one root cause. A resource was
-//! tracked by a coarse state — "release started", "the path exists", "a row with
-//! this name exists" — when the safety question was about the IDENTITY and the
-//! PUBLICATION STAGE of one specific write attempt. A tail replicated refs from
-//! an attempt that had not dispatched a PUT; a read served a tree whose
-//! generation nobody had confirmed; a fork claimed a concurrent attempt's row and
-//! deleted a successor's object; a response-loss failure was compensated as if it
-//! proved non-publication.
-//!
-//! This module is the vocabulary that makes those questions answerable, and it is
-//! deliberately free of any object-storage type:
-//!
-//! - [`PublishAttemptId`] — minted before the request is built, carried with the
-//!   bytes as user metadata, read back off the store to decide whether what is
-//!   published is THIS attempt's work.
-//! - [`PublishStage`] / [`PublishStageCell`] — how far one attempt got, observable
-//!   from outside the future that is performing it, so a CANCELLED attempt can
-//!   still be classified.
-//! - [`UploadError`] — what the client KNOWS about dispatch and commit, not just
-//!   which HTTP status came back. Destructive compensation is licensed only by
-//!   [`UploadError::proves_not_published`].
-//!
-//! # Porting note (#79)
-//!
-//! PR #79 (`feat/storage-abstraction`) deletes `git/tigris.rs` and replaces it
-//! with a `BlobStore`/`RepoArchive` layer. Everything in this file is
-//! backend-agnostic on purpose and is meant to survive that swap unchanged: a new
-//! backend supplies its own error classifier (the one in `tigris.rs` is a single
-//! private function) and keeps these types as the contract its callers read.

-//! #26 Split PR 4 — `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH` default is consistent across surfaces.
-//!
-//! Reviewer 2 (2026-08-28) closed PR #224 with a P2 finding: SECURITY.md and
-//! README.md both stated the default was `false`, while `Config::enforce_owner_push`
-//! declared `default_value_t = true` and the runtime, .env.example, and the env
-//! var table on the README all agreed with the code. Two operator-facing
-//! surfaces lied about the authorization policy. PR #330 flipped the code
-//! default and updated .env.example / README env table / docs/RUN-A-NODE.md,
-//! but missed these two prose mentions.
-//!
-//! This guard pins the documentation and example surfaces together. Each one
-//! is read off the working tree at test time, not a copy in the binary, so a
-//! revert of the doc edit turns it red:
-//!
-//! 1. `SECURITY.md` says the default is `true`.
-//! 2. `README.md` says the default is `true` in the known-limitations prose.
-//! 3. `README.md` says the default is `true` in the env-var table row.
-//! 4. `.env.example` sets `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=true`.
-//!
-//! The runtime declared default (`Config::enforce_owner_push`'s
-//! `default_value_t = true`) is protected by the
-//! `enforce_owner_push_is_declared_true_independent_of_the_environment`
-//! unit test in `config.rs`, which reads the parser directly and is
-//! env-independent. The two checks together cover the surfaces that
-//! produced the original doc-vs-code drift; this guard cannot reach into
-//! the binary crate's `Config` type (it is private to the bin target,
-//! which has no `lib.rs`) without a larger refactor, so the contract is
-//! stated as the four documentation/example surfaces above.
-//!
-//! The four are checked independently. A check that just verified "at least
-//! one surface says true" would pass while a stale SECURITY.md lied; a check
-//! that only verified the binary would not catch the doc drift that
-//! produced this finding in the first place.
