Guidance for OpenCode (and Claude Code) working under backend/. See root AGENTS.md for the project-wide architecture diagram, hard constraints, and design system.

• Backend (backend/): stdlib net/http (handful routes, no framework) + Postgres over jackc/pgx/v5 (pure Go, CGO_ENABLED=0 -> static binary -> distroless/scratch image). Reverse proxy terminates TLS; Go service listens plain :8080. Single binary, split into packages under backend/internal/: store (Bookmark type, Postgres persistence, migration runner), latest (background poller, site parsers, TLS fetcher), session (cookie signing, login rate limiter), httpmw (Auth/Gzip/CORS middleware), api (JSON bookmark handlers), userscript (userscript-serving handler), web (browser UI handler + templates/ + static/, go:embed-ed). backend/main.go is the composition root — the only place that wires packages together into newRouter. Root-level *_test.go hold integration tests that exercise the full router; unit tests for a package live beside it under internal/.
• Schema is migration-owned. internal/store/migrations/*.sql is go:embed-ed and applied on every start by store.migrate: one numbered file per change, one transaction each, versions recorded in schema_migrations. Files are append-only — editing an applied one changes nothing on a database that already ran it. No column probing, no data-fixup migrations: both were SQLite-era machinery and are gone.
• Tests need Docker. internal/pgtest starts one postgres:17-alpine container per test binary (TestMain -> pgtest.Main) and hands each test its own database (pgtest.URL(t)). A package whose tests touch the store must have that TestMain.
• Single-user store, two tables. series keyed (site, series_id) (asura|demonic|comix|kagane|novelfull|lightnovelworld) owns the shared facts — title, cover, canonical URL, kind (manga|novel), Latest Chapter, latest_checked_at — and bookmarks holds only what differs between readers: progress, favourite, lifecycle bucket, updated_at. Sync last-write-wins; the wire format stays flat (ADR-0004). Store.Upsert decomposes one flat body across both tables and enforces the ownership rule: client title/series_url/cover are written only when the series row is new (ADR-0003).
• Endpoints: GET /bookmarks, PUT /bookmarks/{key} (upsert; see updated_at rule below), DELETE /bookmarks/{key}, GET /healthz (no auth).
• Web UI: same binary serve password-gated browser UI on second hostname — GET / (list, or login page when no session), POST /login, POST /logout, GET /static/*, htmx fragment endpoints under /ui/*. Templates + assets go:embed-ed under backend/internal/web/, so backend/Dockerfile must copy the whole internal/ tree, not just *.go. Sessions stateless HMAC cookies keyed off API_TOKEN; WEB_PASSWORD gates them, and when empty, web routes not registered at all. UI mutations read-modify-write through Store.Get + Store.Upsert so updated_at rule stays one place. See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-25-web-ui-design.md. Design-tool caveat: templates link /static/style.css root-absolutely (correct — served from /), but impeccable detector resolves stylesheet href with path.resolve(fileDir, href), drops directory on leading / and silently skip file. Relative href don't help either: template's directory isn't its served path. So detect.mjs backend/internal/web/templates reports false clean — always pass backend/internal/web/static too. One finding there, overused-font on "Instrument Serif", deliberate identity choice, not debt.
• Every action that moves series out of list is confirm-gated. Archive, finish, remove each open own .confirm-row disclosure (toggleConfirmRow(key, kind) in filter.js, kind ∈ archive|finish|remove); restore fire instantly since it's the reversal. Remove's row wear ember wash, two reversible ones wear .calm grey. --ember stay reserved for new-chapter signal: busy bar and inline error use --mute.
• Latest-chapter poller: ticker goroutine in same binary re-check each bookmarked series' newest published chapter from backend's own network access, so latest_chapter stay fresh when user not browsing. Second, parallel signal — userscript keep own maybeCaptureLatestOnSeriesPage/backgroundRefreshLatest logic unchanged. Two independent clocks: per-series cooldown (series.latest_checked_at, enforced by Store.DueForLatestCheck's WHERE clause) and wake interval. The poller walks Series, not Bookmarks — a series referenced by several bookmarks is fetched once per cycle, and the due queue orders reader_count DESC, latest_checked_at ASC (ADR-0003). Series row stamped before fetch so broken series wait out full cooldown instead of retrying every tick; found chapter written straight to the series row via Store.SetLatestChapter, so a bookmark's updated_at — and the list order — is never touched. Fetches use bogdanfinn/tls-client with Chrome profile as defence in depth against fingerprint-based blocking; any failure log and skip. kagane and novelfull sit behind Cloudflare JavaScript challenges the TLS client can't clear, so they are browser-only: fetched over CDP via BROWSER_WS_URL, and simply not polled when that's unset. See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-26-server-latest-chapter-polling-design.md. The poller's series write is a single-column UPDATE (Store.SetLatestChapter), not a read-modify-write of the whole bookmark: it cannot revert read progress or move updated_at, so the old stale-re-read race is gone with the Get+Upsert flow.
• updated_at drives list order, so moves only on real reading progress: server apply its timestamp when row new or last_chapter_num changes, else keep stored value — favouriting series or recording newly published chapter must not reorder list. PUT therefore returns row as stored, clients must adopt that response rather than own payload. See plans/2026-07-25-bookmark-list-favorites-design.md §4.
• Lifecycle buckets: status on each bookmark is reading | archived | finished, orthogonal to favorite. Archived and finished appear only in own tab — not in All, Updated, Favourites, or recent strip. Poller keeps checking archived series and skip finished ones. finished settable only from web UI; PUT /bookmarks/{key} reject it with 400. Empty incoming status means "keep stored one" — resolved on the VALUES side of Store.Upsert, not conflict clause, since excluded.* is post-evaluation row and default applied there would wipe bucket on every PUT from client that predates column. See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-27-status-buckets-design.md.
• Config via env: API_TOKEN, ALLOWED_ORIGINS (comma list), DATABASE_URL (Postgres connection URL, required — no default), PORT (default 8080), WEB_PASSWORD (gates browser UI; unset disable it), LATEST_CHAPTER_POLL_ENABLED/_COOLDOWN/_INTERVAL/_BATCH/_STAGGER (background latest-chapter poller; defaults on, 1h/10m/14/20s). USERSCRIPT_PATH and NOVEL_USERSCRIPT_PATH (files served at /u/{token}/manga-bookmark.user.js and /u/{token}/novel-bookmark.user.js, defaults /userscript/manga-bookmark.user.js and /userscript/novel-bookmark.user.js, both supplied by bindmount). BROWSER_WS_URL (headless-shell CDP endpoint for kagane and novelfull; unset disables browser polling and leaves those sites to the userscript alone).
