Every doc statement that explained a Cloudflare challenge as a "score"
was wrong. Researched against Cloudflare's own docs on 2026-08-12
(docs/research/cloudflare-bot-scoring-and-poll-cadence.md, 22 primary
pages plus RFC 9309): the 1-99 bot score is Enterprise Bot Management
only, free-plan zones get Bot Fight Mode signature matching and no score
at all, and no per-IP request rate is documented as an input to
challenge issuance. cf_clearance also expires in 30 minutes, so every
cadence at or above 1h re-solves the challenge regardless.
Docs only - no behaviour change. The 6h browser cooldown stays; its
justification is now cost (a serialized single-tab solve costs seconds,
a plain read costs one request), not a risk reduction nothing documents.
- AGENTS.md: the block is per-zone configuration plus request
fingerprint, not IP reputation; comix.to turning its gate on
2026-08-12 is the example. Residential egress avoids the
cloud-hosting-IP signature rather than earning a better score. The UTC
measurement stands but its mechanism is marked undocumented.
- backend/AGENTS.md: states why the browser cooldown is longer.
- ADR-0003, ADR-0006: dated corrections rather than rewrites. Both
decisions stand on their other arguments (sweep depth, VPS memory).
- DEPLOY.md: a red smoke run means the Site's settings or this Chrome's
fingerprint moved, not that "Cloudflare's scoring" did.
Swap modernc.org/sqlite for jackc/pgx/v5 with no observable change:
same endpoints, same wire format, same updated_at ordering rule.
The schema now comes from numbered SQL embedded in the binary and
applied on startup, one transaction each, recorded in
schema_migrations. That replaces two pieces of SQLite-era machinery,
both deleted rather than ported: the column probing (Postgres has ADD
COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS, and there is no legacy database left to probe)
and the Asura key rewrite, which has run clean on every start for
months now that the userscripts strip build hashes before writing. Its
regexp survives as latest.asuraBuildHash, where the poller still needs
it to scope chapter links to a series whose slug carries a rotating
hash.
Types get real: favorite is a boolean, chapter numbers double
precision, timestamps stay unix-ms bigint. SQLite's null-safe IS NOT
becomes IS DISTINCT FROM, which is what implements the rule that only
reading progress reorders a list. Inside COALESCE/NULLIF the status
and kind parameters need an explicit ::text -- there is no target
column to infer from and Postgres refuses to guess.
Tests lose their free t.TempDir() database, so Docker is now a hard
prerequisite for `go test ./...`: internal/pgtest starts one
postgres:17-alpine per test binary and hands each test a database of
its own.
Also lands CONTEXT.md and the four ADRs written while scoping #18.
BREAKING CHANGE: DB_PATH is retired for DATABASE_URL, which is
required and has no default. Compose gains a postgres service on an
internal network with its own volume; POSTGRES_PASSWORD joins .env.
The old bookmarks-data volume is deliberately left undeclared so
`docker compose down -v` cannot take the pre-migration database with
it. main is not deployable until #25 and #26 land.
Closes#20
