The Posts tab filtered reels out, so the grid was not the archive — it
was the archive minus its videos. For `for.heejin` that hid 533 of 1225
posts; for `loonatheworld`, 1100 of 3813. On Instagram the grid holds
everything and the Reels tab is a filtered view of that same set.
Extract the tab logic to src/lib/post-tabs.ts so the reel heuristic is
testable outside the component, and add dedupePostCopies: the jd2 flow
crawls the profile URL and the /reels URL separately because the profile
page misses some reels, so the two overlap and a reel can land on disk
twice. Those are two posts with distinct directory-scoped ids, which the
grid would now render side by side; the reels-source copy wins so the
survivor is still recognised as a reel.
Deciding what *is* a reel stays a guess for most archives. Instagram
marks it with product_type ("clips" vs "feed" vs "igtv" — all three are
GraphVideo, and aspect ratio does not separate them), but only newer
Instaloader captures carry it: 1101 of gibiofficial's 5919 sidecars, and
only 2 marked clips. JDownloader archives carry none, so those still
fall back to treating a lone video as a reel.

The service worker precaches index.html together with its response headers, so
a server-only change never reaches an installed client: the client build is
byte-identical, the precache manifest is unchanged, and the worker has no
reason to update. That is why the CSP fix in 1.6.1 did not reach a browser that
already had the app cached — it kept replaying a cached shell carrying the old,
broken CSP, indefinitely.
The release version is now compiled into the client, which makes every release
change the bundle hash, hence index.html, hence its precache revision, hence
sw.js itself — the bytes browsers compare to decide whether to update. Verified
by bumping only the version: index-DYufL2Fa.js -> index-60N_3d5j.js, with the
new name carried into the sw.js manifest.
It also surfaces in the footer, so the deployed version is visible without
digging through devtools.

Instaloader metadata was silently lost
Every .json.xz failed with "Failed to fetch" during a scan, though the same URL
fetched fine on its own. RemoteArchiveFile.stream() started a fetch, piped the
body into a TransformStream and returned the readable immediately — nothing
caught a fetch rejection, and the decompressor stops reading at the end of the
xz member, so the response body was never drained or cancelled. Across ~190
sidecars that exhausted the connection pool.
Everything Instaloader archives carry lives in those files, so the failure was
invisible but total. rivvsofficial reported 188 posts, no stories, 0 followers
and a placeholder bio; it now reports 68 posts, 120 stories, 10,337 followers
and the real name, bio and link — 68 + 120 = 188, matching the sidecars exactly
(106 GraphStoryVideo + 14 GraphStoryImage = 120).
These sidecars are a few KB, so they are now read into memory before
decompressing. stream() was left unused by that change and is removed from the
interface and both implementations rather than kept as a trap.
Arrow keys page the carousel
They moved between posts, which contradicted the arrows drawn on the carousel
itself. Arrows now page slides; , and . move between posts, alongside the side
buttons.
Backdrop cross-fade
AnimatePresence had no exit variant, so the outgoing scan backdrop was removed
instantly while its replacement faded in over 1.5s, exposing the pale page
behind it as a white flash. Layers now stack: the outgoing image holds full
opacity until covered, and the 0.4 moved onto the group so overlapping layers
don't darken as they cross. Measured over a real scan: 152 cross-fades with a
layer always opaque, except the opening fade-in where nothing is underneath.

The archive root was filtered by prefix, but the recursive walk below it was
not, so anything inside a profile directory got indexed. NAS filesystems put
sidecar metadata *inside* every folder rather than only at the share root:
Synology writes @eaDir (thumbnails and indexing data), #recycle holds
deletions, .sync is Resilio state. On the live share those account for 12,516
of 123,023 files.
None currently sit inside a profile directory, so nothing was miscounted yet —
but the moment that share gets indexed for Photos, every generated thumbnail
would be counted as archive media and stat'd one by one over the network, which
is the cost the index exists to avoid.
One isSystemDirectory rule now applies at every level, and the root listing uses
it too instead of keeping a second copy of the pattern.

Tapping a post on a phone now opens a real feed page — header, media, actions,
caption, next post peeking in below — scrolled with the browser's own vertical
scrolling rather than swipe gestures. Desktop keeps the modal, where a centred
sheet with side arrows suits a pointer.
Only a window of posts is mounted: a profile here holds up to 1129 posts and
mounting them all would mean as many full-size images. The window grows in both
directions as you scroll. Growing upwards shifts everything below it, so the
scroll offset is corrected in the same frame, before paint — measured against
the real archive, an anchored post moves exactly one screen per scroll with no
jump.
Only the post crossing the viewport centre plays its video; the rest stay
paused, so a feed of reels doesn't play ten at once. The URL tracks that same
post, so scrolling updates /<archive>/p/<shortcode>/ the way Instagram does,
and the back button returns to the grid with its scroll position intact.
Feed video sizes to the container width rather than its intrinsic size: a
<video> reports 300x150 until metadata loads, which made it render narrow and
then jump to full width. It also gets a taller height ceiling than the modal so
ordinary portrait media fills the width instead of sitting in side bars.
The carousel is extracted into a shared MediaCarousel used by both surfaces, so
horizontal paging behaves identically; touch-action keeps vertical scrolling
passing through to the feed. PostModal loses its now-dead mobile swipe branch.

Navigation gestures
Horizontal swipe used to advance the carousel and then, on the last slide,
fling you into the next post — one gesture meaning two things. Horizontal is
now carousel-only. On touch, vertical swipe moves between posts (down on the
first post still dismisses, keeping drag-to-close where it can't mean
"previous"). Desktop keeps the arrows outside the modal.
URLs
Permalinks now mirror Instagram:
/<archive>/ profile
/<archive>/reels/ tab
/<archive>/p/<shortcode>/ post
A post URL carries no tab, as on Instagram; the tab is re-derived from the
post's source, so opening a reel link lands on the Reels tab with next/prev
paging through reels. Sidecar posts keep directory-scoped ids internally but
expose only the shortcode. The old ?a=&t=&p= form is still parsed so existing
links keep working, and reserved prefixes (api, archives, assets…) can never be
mistaken for a profile name.
Animations
Adds a shared motion vocabulary tuned to feel native: critically damped springs
rather than fixed-duration easing, and gestures hand their exit velocity to the
animation so a flick continues instead of restarting. Post transitions animate
along the axis the input implies — vertical for a swipe, horizontal for the
arrows. Modal and story viewer present/dismiss with a scale, tiles and
highlight circles get touch-down feedback, and prefers-reduced-motion is
honoured throughout.
Adds 22 routing tests (58 total).

The prev/next arrows are fixed to the viewport edges while the modal grows to
fill the available width, so below roughly 1200px the modal slid underneath
them and a white chevron landed on the white caption panel — invisible until
hovered. The overlay now reserves a horizontal gutter (md:px-16 lg:px-24) so
the arrows always sit outside the modal, and they get a solid white pill with a
dark chevron so they read against anything behind them. Verified clearing the
modal at 768, 1024, 1440 and 1920px.
The caption sidebar shrinks to w-80 at md so the narrower modal doesn't squeeze
the media pane.
Also adds overscroll-contain to the overlay: the wheel previously chained
through to the post grid behind it, scrolling the background while a post was
open.

Media in the post modal used w-full/h-auto, so a portrait video or image grew
taller than the screen (a 720x1280 reel rendered 768x1365 in a 786px viewport)
and forced the modal to scroll. Full view now caps height to the viewport minus
the modal's own padding. Video sizes to its own aspect within the cap so a
portrait clip isn't letterboxed edge to edge; images keep filling the modal
width and only gain a height ceiling.
Opening the modal or a story reel is a user gesture, so playback now starts
unmuted and only falls back to muted if the browser actually refuses the
play() promise — previously it always started muted, and the earlier
muted-by-default fix meant a blocked video could stall the story progress bar.

Security
- Fix path traversal in GET /api/archives/:name/files. Express decodes route
params after segment matching, so `..%2f..%2fetc` escaped ARCHIVES_DIR and
returned a recursive listing of arbitrary directories.
- Add CSP and baseline security headers; disable x-powered-by.
- Stop baking GEMINI_API_KEY into the client bundle (the SDK was unused).
- Run the container as `node` instead of root.
Performance
- Add a directory-mtime-keyed archive index, warmed in the background and
persisted. Listing 110k files went from ~52s to ~0.1s; the largest archive
(24k files) serves in ~0.3s. Per-file stat over CIFS costs ~1.4ms and does
not parallelise, so it is now done once rather than per request.
- Build media URLs from the File directly instead of
`new Blob([await file.arrayBuffer()])`, which read every media file fully
into memory (a 20GB archive tried to become 20GB of resident blobs).
- Track and revoke object URLs; previously none were ever revoked.
- Give `requestThumbnail` a stable identity so a completed thumbnail stops
re-running the effect in every mounted thumbnail.
- Namespace IndexedDB keys so listing archives no longer deserializes every
cached thumbnail blob, and thumbnails no longer collide across archives.
- Serve real file sizes: RemoteArchiveFile was constructed with size 0, which
silently disabled high-res thumbnailing for every server archive.
Correctness
- Local archives cached media as blob: URLs, which die with the document, so
a cached local archive restored as an archive of broken images. Media now
carries a stable path and is rehydrated from a persisted directory handle
(File System Access API), falling back to re-prompting for the folder.
- Fix permalinks: the URL-writing effect erased ?a= on mount before the
archive list arrived to consume it, so deep links never resolved.
- Make cache invalidation detect nested changes via a directory signature.
- Add an error boundary and tolerate unparseable dates, which previously
threw a RangeError and blanked the app.
- Default video to muted so autoplay is not blocked by Safari/Firefox.
Features
- Fold sidecar directories into their base profile: `<user> - reels`,
`story - <user>` and `story highlights - <user> - <title>` now appear as
reels, the story ring and Instagram-style highlight circles rather than as
separate archives.
Housekeeping
- Add @types/react; React was previously type-checked against its JavaScript
source, so `npm run lint` gave almost no type safety on components.
- Vendor fonts and PWA icons locally; the app made third-party CDN requests
despite advertising offline support and local-only processing.
- Drop unused better-sqlite3 (a native module that broke `npm install`).
- Add vitest with 36 tests over the filename and directory-naming rules.
