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.

The manual flow is: paste a profile URL into JDownloader, paste the /reels URL
separately (the profile page misses some reels), set the output folder by hand,
repeat per profile. scripts/jd2-sync.ts emits one crawljob per source with the
folder already pointed at the right directory, so folder-watch picks up the
whole batch at once.
Profiles and sidecars are derived with the same grouping logic the server uses,
so output folders always match what the viewer expects to find. --download-base
maps the path for a JDownloader running on another machine (Windows paths
included), since it typically runs on a desktop against the share.
Directories that aren't Instagram profiles are skipped: an archive root also
collects tool output and exports from other services, and pointing a crawl at
those spends requests on instagram.com to be told the profile doesn't exist —
exactly the traffic worth not spending. Filtering is by username shape, plus
--skip and a .jd2ignore file for names that look like usernames but aren't.
Defaults are conservative: chunks=1, because multi-chunk ranged requests are the
one CDN-side pattern that doesn't resemble a browser, and links park in the
LinkGrabber for review rather than auto-starting.
Only posts and reels are emitted; highlight URLs need a numeric id and story
URLs expire, so those stay manual.
Format verified against JDownloader's own explain.txt for the folderwatch
extension, read from the daily SVN mirror rather than one of the decade-stale
GitHub copies.
Also refreshes CLAUDE.md, whose URL-state section still described the query
parameters replaced in 1.4.0, and documents the mobile feed.

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.

os.userInfo() throws ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR (uv_os_get_passwd) for a UID that has no
/etc/passwd entry, which is exactly what `docker run --user 1234:1234` produces
— the very workaround the README recommends. Combined with the switch to a
non-root image user, this crashed the server on startup for any deployment that
needed a custom UID to read its archives.
Also document the non-root default and the /cache index volume.

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.
