A release-readiness QA pass over the whole product. The commits split into
defects a user would hit and gates that were reporting green while measuring
nothing.
## Fixes that change behaviour
Rate limiting was bypassable on every install: TRUST_PROXY defaulted to true, so
request.ip came from a client-set header and a forged X-Forwarded-For got past
the login limiter. The default is now a private-network trust list.
A transient Postgres outage stranded in-flight jobs, leaving finished output on
disk with no row pointing at it. A reconciler now resolves those rows and adopts
the bytes rather than dropping the work.
A Redis connection that moved to a new address wedged every read-blocked
consumer, so completions stopped signalling while health still answered 200.
Socket timeouts plus subscriber pings recover it.
Installing more than one AI bundle left the shared venv multi-versioned and
silently broke three tools. The installer now reconciles distributions to one
version each.
Converting an image to JXL at quality 1 through 4 returned a 500, because
libjxl 0.7 rejects the distance those values compute. The quality is floored at
what the encoder honours. A missing ffmpeg was also reported to the user as a
corrupt upload; it now says the engine is unavailable.
RAW uploads reached an unpatched LibRaw on arm64, so it is built from source at
0.22.2, and the release scan was split so it can fail on an unfixed critical
instead of hiding it behind ignore-unfixed.
## Gates that could not fail
Two mutation lanes ran zero mutants because Stryker crawled the gitignored docs
build; coverage discarded its whole report on any failing test; the lint gate
skipped root tests, scripts, and two workspaces; and several generated matrices
counted a host missing ffmpeg as a passing tool. Each now measures what it
claims.
Full evidence and the outstanding release items are tracked locally and are not
part of this branch.
Overhaul the bug report form and restructure issue intake for 2.0:
- Bug report: split actual vs expected behavior, add Affected area and
Specific tool fields for triage, replace the self-defeating required
"latest version" checkbox with a Version field that accepts a tag,
release, or commit (always answerable from any install), modernize
Docker guidance to the Compose stack, add Host OS, and fix the
previously required image-tag field that source users could not fill.
- Move feature requests to GitHub Discussions: delete the feature_request
issue form, rename the orphaned discussion form to ideas.yml so it binds
to the built-in Ideas category, and point config.yml there.
- Add Translation and Documentation issue forms routed to existing labels.
- Remove the roadmap-update discussion form (roadmap is private).
- Reconcile CONTRIBUTING.md, SUPPORT.md, and the published docs
contributing guide with the new routing.
- CODEOWNERS: use @snapotter-hq username instead of non-existent team
- PR template: use absolute URLs (relative links break in PR body)
- CLA: strengthen entity definition with successor/assignee clause
- CLA workflow: store signatures on dedicated branch, add owner to allowlist
- CONTRIBUTING: clarify approval means the "approved" label, reword CCLA
- Bug template: allow "running from source" for developer contributors
Add full contribution infrastructure: CLA with broad sublicensing
rights for dual-licensing, CONTRIBUTING.md with scope rules and dev
setup, CLA Assistant workflow, CODEOWNERS, SUPPORT.md, PR template,
updated issue templates with contribution prompts, and declarative
label config.
- Add Cloudflare Pages deployment for landing page (snapotter.com) and
docs (docs.snapotter.com)
- Create deploy-landing.yml and update deploy-docs.yml workflows
- Update CI to ignore apps/landing/** paths
- Fix logo transparency (remove white background) across all apps
- Recreate social-preview.png with SnapOtter branding
- Update all docs URLs from GitHub Pages to docs.snapotter.com
- Update VitePress config: light theme default, fix llms.txt paths
- Add .vitepress/cache/ and .env.* to gitignore
- Remove all lite/full variant logic from frontend, API, shared constants,
docs, and tests (single unified Docker image only)
- Replace single QEMU multi-arch Docker build with per-architecture native
builds (amd64 + arm64) and manifest merge to fix disk space exhaustion
- Add disk cleanup step and per-platform build cache scopes
- Switch release trigger from push to workflow_dispatch
- Add GitHub issue templates and PR template
Replace MIT with AGPLv3 + commercial dual-license. Add copyright header
and dual-license notice to LICENSE, add CLA to CONTRIBUTING.md, update
README license section, and update all package.json license fields.
Update all references across docs, workflows, UI components, and config
to point to the new GitHub org (stirling-image/stirling-image) and Docker
Hub account (stirlingimage/stirling-image) ahead of repo transfer.
Rewrite README to remove AI writing patterns (em dashes, promotional
language, vague claims). Make Quick Start section explicit about default
credentials and forced password change. Add Contributing section linking
to CONTRIBUTING.md, developer guide, and translation guide.
Create CONTRIBUTING.md with issue guidelines, PR workflow, commit
conventions, and development setup. Add developer guide (dev setup,
project structure, how to add a tool) and translation guide (how the
i18n system works, step-by-step for adding a language) to VitePress
docs. Register both new pages in the docs sidebar.
