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.
Fixes#557. Vivid fill, ink label: brand #E07832 stays on fills while primary-foreground flips to #1A1814 (5.83:1); new theme-aware ink tokens carry orange, destructive, and success text roles; opacity-modified text purged; landing, demo, and the docs fund button retuned. Guarded by a CSS-parsing unit contrast test, rebuilt axe baselines with zero contrast entries, a new landing axe smoke, and fully regenerated darwin visual baselines.
The custom nav cluster (theme toggle + Fund + GitHub Star) rendered inline at
every width, overriding VitePress's responsive collapse: a horizontal scrollbar
at 768-959px and off-screen clipping of the buttons on 1280-1366px laptops.
Show the custom cluster only at >=1440px where it fits, defer to VitePress's
native nav below that, anchor the flyout menu to the start edge in RTL, and drop
the redundant "Home" nav link so the nav fits at 768px.
Closes#556
Removes the client-side api.github.com fetch from the landing navbar and the docs theme; both now render a build-time star count (docs via a new VitePress data loader). deploy-docs.yml gets GITHUB_TOKEN plus a daily refresh cron, mirroring deploy-landing.yml. Fixes#555.
Localize the docs homepage (DocsHome.vue), top nav, and sidebar structural labels into all 20 non-English locales; individual tool names stay English by design. Also derive the homepage tool-count chips from the shared catalog via toolSection() so they no longer drift.
Shared Claude Code translation pipeline (scripts/i18n, no API key) plus Astro/VitePress/Scalar i18n wiring. Landing and API reference translated into all 20 languages; docs i18n wiring + English source anchors. The translated docs markdown (apps/docs/<locale>/**, 3,620 files) follows in a companion PR because it exceeds GitHub's per-PR CI file limit.
The tool reference moved to /tools/<section>/<toolId>, but the five modality chips on the docs home still linked to the old flat paths. A full page load survives via the Cloudflare _redirects shim, but VitePress client-side navigation bypasses it and lands on the 404 page.
A dist-wide internal link check confirms these five were the only remaining stale links in the built site. The homepage e2e spec now pins all five chip hrefs and click-navigates one chip client-side, which is exactly the path that broke.
The repositioning in #469 pushed the full marketing pitch into the docs home hero: eyebrow badge, marketing h1, a bolded two-sentence value prop, and a second paragraph, all before the install command. The hero now states what the page is and gets out of the way: "SnapOtter Documentation" plus one line that keeps the self-hosted file-processing positioning, then the one-command install and quick links.
The Enterprise door CTA said "Evaluate for your org" but linked to /guide/architecture, already the first link in that same card. It now says "See enterprise features" and points at https://snapotter.com/enterprise, where the evaluation journey (features, pricing, demo booking) actually lives.
Also repairs the docs homepage e2e spec, which still asserted pre-2.0 copy and has been failing nightly since the hero changed, and adds coverage for both door CTAs.
Leads public copy with self-hosted file-processing infrastructure and demotes tool count to a proof point across README, docs, llms.txt, DockerHub, and the landing site. Adds a /self-hosted hub plus 7 job-intent SEO pages with a build-time validator, deepens the flagship /alternatives pages, adds a remove.bg page, three shared components, and landing e2e coverage.
* fix(landing): correct PDF tool count to 28 in alternatives copy
The pdf section has 28 tools (section.test.ts asserts bySection('pdf')=28). PR #363 corrected the docs breakdown but the alternatives pages still said 40 PDF tools (the document-modality count, not the pdf section) with 200 for the rest. Update to 28 PDF tools and 212 for the non-PDF remainder.
* chore: use "200+ tools" for the tool-count claim across public surfaces
Replaces the exact '240 tools' count (which drifts as tools are added) with the stable '200+ tools' on README, the Docker Hub overview, landing pages, the docs site (meta, homepage, search), the API self-description, the demo OG tag, llms.txt, package.json, the branding readme, and the en/nl app strings. Per-modality breakdown tables stay exact. Leaves the architecture doc's technical 'tool routes' figure, an internal vitest comment, and a QA report line unchanged. Updates the two tests that assert the docs strings.
Lands five integrated branches: pipeline templates (#355), analytics opt-out (#354), 83 conversion presets bringing the catalog to 240 tools (#356), self-hosted positioning (#353), and e2e modernization (#351).
Integration fixes: aligned stale web analytics tests with the opt-out/allow-list model, closed 3 CodeQL incomplete-sanitization alerts in the i18n generator, resolved settings/index/docs/format-matrix conflicts, and corrected tool counts to 240.
* feat(docs): improve search UX
- Hide the 'Search by Pagefind' branding in the search dialog footer
- Replace the 'No results found.' message shown before any query with a
friendly hint (detected via empty-input :placeholder-shown state)
- Tune placeholder, empty-state, and results-heading copy; show a few
sub-section matches per result (pageResultCount)
* docs: replace double-dash em-dash substitute with single dash
Swept prose ' -- ' to ' - ' and numeric ranges (e.g. 2--20 to 2-20)
across the documentation. CLI flags and code blocks left untouched.
* fix(landing): show colored category icons on modality tool pages
The /tools/<modality>/ pages rendered bare name+description cards with no
icon or color. Port the colored, category-tinted icon card from /tools/
so modality pages match the main catalog (icon, tint, 'Learn more').
The docs.snapotter.com hero command wrapped onto two lines. Switch the
command from pre-wrap to nowrap with internal horizontal scroll, widen the
box, and nudge the font down so it sits on one line on desktop and scrolls
inside its box on mobile without the page overflowing.
Move the copy action onto the whole command box (pointer cursor + hover
affordance) so clicking anywhere copies, while keeping the real Copy button
(now click.stop so it does not double-fire, with a min-width to avoid layout
shift between the Copy and Copied states).
Rewrote all homepage CSS overrides from scratch:
- Brand name at 44px with gradient, subtitle at 34px (clear hierarchy)
- Feature cards at 14px/13px with 20px padding (readable, not cramped)
- 3-column feature grid with equal-height rows
- Removed VitePress 128px default gap before footer
- Trimmed Local AI feature description to balance card heights
Entire page fits in one viewport without scrolling.
The .name and .clip are the same element (class="name clip"), not
nested, so .name .clip selector never matched. Use .name.clip instead.
Also remove VitePress default 128px margin-bottom on .VPHome that was
pushing the footer below the viewport.
The hero title was left-aligned while tagline/buttons were centered,
creating a visual mismatch. Use flexbox centering on .VPHero .main to
align all hero elements. Bump font sizes slightly and equalize feature
card heights with height: 100%.
Reduce hero padding and font sizes, center tagline and action buttons,
switch feature cards from 2-column to 3-column grid, and tighten all
section spacing so the entire docs homepage is visible without scrolling.
Fold the sponsor call-to-action into the Contributing section as a
natural bullet point instead of a standalone heavy section. Remove
the large badge buttons. Keep star history chart under Contributing.
Add a pink "Fund Development" button component to the docs site nav
bar (left of Star on GitHub), matching the landing page style.
Remove the plain-text nav link that replaced the heart icon.
- 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

Remove socialLinks config and three-dots menu. Add appearance toggle
and combined GitHub + Star button directly in the navbar via layout
slot. The button shows the Octocat icon, "Star" label, and live
stargazer count.
