chore: bump version to 1.0.12

- Revert local HLS to flat /app/hls/seg-{seq}.m4s (nginx serves from this dir)
- runID only used in R2 keys (live/{runID}/seg-{seq}.m4s)
- This fixes 404 on linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8 caused by r-{runID} subdir
- Added scripts/validate-edge-cache.sh: MISS→HIT, immutable headers, manifest freshness
- Phase 4 marked complete. Cleaned up LEGACY streaming gaps in TODO.md

+# AGENTS.md
+
+Agents instructions for the linearvoid project.
+
+## General Guidelines
+
+- Use the architecture documentation (arc42 template and ADRs in `docs`) as the source of truth for design decisions.
+- Follow the project folder structure in the root README.
+- Update documentation first before implementing changes to ensure traceability of decisions.
+
+## Task Management
+
+- Plan any task in the `.github/instructions/TODO.md` file with clear steps and mark them as completed when done. Move completed sections to `.github/instructions/DONE.md`. Write entry in root `CHANGELOG.md` for any significant changes. Avoid using in-memory todo lists or update them frequently to sync from the `TODO.md` file.
+- Before taking any action except for planning and writing `TODO.md`, always ask user for confirmation, accept `go`, `ok`, `yes`, `next`, or `continue` to proceed. If the user says `no`, `stop`, or `cancel`, abort the action and return to planning.
+
+### Required tracking files — update at every development step
+
+These files must be kept current with every change. Do not let them drift.
+
+| File                              | Purpose                                       | When to update                                                     |
+| --------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |

+| `.github/instructions/BACKLOG.md` | Deferred, manual, and operational tasks       | Sync whenever TODO items complete or new gaps are identified       |
+| `.github/instructions/DONE.md`    | Archive of completed TODO sections            | Move completed sections here from TODO.md                          |

+| `CHANGELOG.md`                    | User-facing release notes                     | Add entry when a phase or significant feature completes            |

+
+## Security & Secrets Protection
+
+- **Never commit raw secrets or credentials** to the repository.
+- **Never print or log raw secrets** in terminal commands or output files.
+- **Use Gitea Actions Secrets** for all production credentials and environment variables.
+- **Avoid hardcoding sensitive values** in workflow files (`.yml`). Instead, reference them using `${{ secrets.SECRET_NAME }}`.
+- **Do not use the `GITEA_` prefix** for custom secrets or environment variables in Gitea, as it is reserved internally and will be silently ignored or returned as empty. Use the `CI_` prefix instead (e.g., `CI_REGISTRY_USER`, `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`).
+- **Keep `.env` gitignored** and use `.env.example` as the template for local development.
+- **For CD deployments**, generate the `.env` file dynamically on the runner using a secure step that populates values from Gitea Actions Secrets.

+## 2026-08-07
+
+- Completed runtime validation section from TODO.
+- Runtime video normalization tests executed in running `linearvoid-playout` container using ffmpeg/ffprobe.
+- Verified normalized outputs for MOV, MKV, VFR, and 5.1 inputs: `h264`, `yuv420p`, `30/1`, `aac`, `48000`, `2 channels`.
+- Concat continuity check passed with `CONCAT_OK`; output duration `25.344667` seconds.
+- Responsive viewport test on live viewer (`390x844`, `412x915`) detected 8px horizontal overflow from `100vw` usage in viewer container styles.
+- Fixed overflow in source by changing `.lv-body` and `.viewer-shell` width from `100vw` to `100%` in `frontend/src/style.css`.
+- Redis restart test:
+  - Admin session endpoint returned 200 before and after Redis restart.
+  - Presence key survived Redis restart in test-lab configuration.
+  - Redis health returned to `healthy` post-restart.
+- Files changed:
+  - `.github/instructions/TODO.md`
+  - `.github/instructions/DONE.md`
+  - `frontend/src/style.css`
+  - `CHANGELOG.md`
+
+## 2026-08-07 (continued)
+
+- Completed documentation half of recovery runbook TODO item.
+- Expanded `docs/incident-runbook.md` with quarterly DR drill: prerequisites, outage simulation, restore validation, pass/fail criteria, and evidence template.
+- Split TODO item into:
+  - documented drill (`[x]`)
+  - manual rehearsal execution (`[ ]`)
+- Updated `CHANGELOG.md` with incident runbook drill documentation entry.
+
+## 2026-08-07 (continued 2)
+
+- Added manual operations checklist `docs/operations/cloudflare-uptimerobot-checklist.md` for Cloudflare + UptimeRobot task execution and evidence capture.
+- Linked checklist from `SETUP.md` Cloudflare section and TODO manual sections.
+- Did not mark manual dashboard items complete; checklist is preparation only.
+
+## 2026-08-07 (continued 3)
+
+- Added `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` covering manifest TTL tuning, TTFB baseline method, WebSocket/API benchmarking approach, cache ratio tracking, capacity triggers, and Phase 2/3 plans.
+- Updated TODO and BACKLOG to mark playbook creation done while keeping execution/measurement tasks pending.
+- Linked scaling playbook in `README.md` resources.
+
+## 2026-08-09
+
+- Added WebSocket benchmark summary helper `scripts/loadtest/summarize-artillery.ps1`.
+- Updated `scripts/loadtest/run-loadtests.ps1` to auto-generate `ws-chat-summary.txt` for `ws` and `all` scenarios.
+- Updated `scripts/loadtest/summarize-k6.ps1` to produce pipeline-friendly output and integrated automatic `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt` generation.
+- Expanded `scripts/loadtest/README.md` with PowerShell-first artifact capture and helper usage for both ws and admin scenarios.
+- Updated `.gitignore` to ignore loadtest artifacts (`artifacts/` and `scripts/loadtest/artifacts/`).
+- Added artifact-to-worksheet field mapping section in `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` so ws/admin worksheet entries map directly to generated summary files.
+- Updated `docs/DEVELOPMENT.md` and `.github/instructions/TODO.md` to mark ws/admin benchmark scaffolding complete while live benchmark execution remains pending.
+- Added `CHANGELOG.md` entry `1.0.10` summarizing loadtest helper automation and playbook mapping updates.
+
+## 2026-08-09 (continued)
+
+- Completed Phase 1 (test fixtures): documented ffmpeg fixture-generation commands in `playlist_test.go` header comments (valid_720p30, invalid_h265, invalid_24fps).
+- Completed Phase 4 (R2 integration):
+  - Enhanced `SyncToR2` in `playlist.go` to set CacheControl + ContentType based on file extension:
+    - `.m4s`, `.ts`, `.mp4`, `.m4a` -> `public, max-age=31536000, immutable` + `video/MP2T`
+    - `.m3u8` -> `public, max-age=2` + `application/vnd.apple.mpegurl`
+    - unknown extension -> no cache headers
+  - Added three tests: `TestSyncToR2` (segment upload with cache verification), `TestSyncToR2_ManifestCacheHeaders` (manifest upload), `TestSyncToR2_NoCacheHeadersForUnknownExt` (unknown extension).
+  - All 17 playout tests pass (16 pass, 1 pre-existing skip).
+- Updated TODO.md: Phase 1 marked complete, Phase 4 partially complete (edge cache hit/miss remains manual).
+- Updated DEVELOPMENT.md: Test Fixtures marked complete, R2 Integration Test marked partially complete.
+
+## 2026-08-09 (continued 2)
+
+- Completed Phase 2 chat tests in `frontend/src/main.test.ts`:
+  - Presence updates: join/leave system messages add and remove users from presence list, sorted rendering.
+  - Private DM flow: togglePrivateDM creates correct dm: room name from sorted usernames.
+  - Message rendering: system messages, self messages (message-self), and other-user messages (message-other) all render correctly.
+  - Total frontend tests: 27 passing (2 test files).
+- Marked Phase 4 "Document stubs/mocks" done (putObject injection pattern).
+- Updated TODO.md: Phase 2 chat tests checked, Phase 4 stubs checked.
+- Updated DEVELOPMENT.md: User Frontend Tests marked partially complete, R2 stubs checked.
+- Updated CHANGELOG.md with Phase 2 presence/DM/message tests.
+
+## 2026-08-09 (continued 3)
+
+- Completed Phase 3 admin frontend tests in `frontend/src/admin.test.ts`:
+  - Exported `savePlaylist` and `renderPlaylistSortable` from `admin.ts`.
+  - Added playlist save test (verifies PUT /api/admin/playlist with JSON body).
+  - Added playlist save error handling test (verifies failure status).
+  - Added sortable rendering test (verifies index, paths, remove buttons, comment/blank line skip).
+  - Total frontend tests: 31 passing (2 test files).
+- Updated TODO.md: Phase 3 playlist/dashboard/API integration all checked.
+- Updated DEVELOPMENT.md: Admin Frontend Tests marked partially complete.
+
+## 2026-08-10 (continued 2)
+
+- Implemented STREAMING.md production-readiness gaps from plan `.hermes/plans/2026-08-10_164500-production-readiness.md`:
+  - **Task 1-2**: Added `runID` (ISO timestamp format) and monotonic `segSequence` for globally unique segment naming (`r-{ISOTIME}/seg-{seq}.m4s`). Replaced `strftime` pattern with run ID-based path.
+  - **Task 2**: Added `watchAndPublishSegments` using `fsnotify` for real-time per-segment R2 upload (~7s delay). Previously `syncLatestToR2()` only ran after FFmpeg exit.
+  - **Task 3**: Added `publishManifest` with atomic `CopyObject` (temp key → final key) to prevent manifest referencing unconfirmed segments.
+  - **Task 4**: Updated `manifestCacheControl` from `"public, max-age=2"` to `"public, max-age=1, s-maxage=2, must-revalidate"` per STREAMING.md.
+  - **Task 5**: Added `hls.on(Hls.Events.ERROR)` handler in `main.ts` with bounded retries (5x), exponential backoff (2s→32s), reconnecting overlay (spinner + text). Added `showReconnecting`/`hideReconnecting` functions.
+  - **Task 6**: Enriched `HealthHandler` with `run_id`, `active_item`, `playlist_revision`, `last_segment_seq`, `last_r2_pub`, `consecutive_failures`. Added "unhealthy" status when R2 publish is stale (>12s).
+- Files changed: `backend/playout/src/playlist.go`, `playlist_test.go`, `go.mod`, `frontend/src/main.ts`, `main.test.ts`, `style.css`, `index.html`.
+- Updated `.github/instructions/TODO.md`, `BACKLOG.md`, `MEMORY.md`, `DONE.md`.
+- Remaining: CORS on media.linearvoid.tv (Cloudflare R2 config, infrastructure).
+
+## 2026-08-10 (continued 3)
+
+- Completed Phase 2 (viewer) + Phase 3 (admin) responsive/accessibility tests:
+  - 5 viewer accessibility tests: video controls/attributes, chat panel aria-labels, chat toggle aria-expanded, message input label, reconnecting overlay aria-live/role.
+  - 3 viewer responsive tests: chat-collapsed toggle, CSS grid layout detection, now-playing aria-live.
+  - 3 admin accessibility tests: nav aria-label, active tab aria-current, nav button focusability.
+  - 2 admin responsive tests: tab content visibility, essential tab presence.
+  - Total: 45 frontend tests passing (2 test files).
+- Added coverage reporting: `vitest.config.ts` with v8 provider, thresholds at 20/15/15/20 (statements/branches/functions/lines).
+- Added `test:coverage` script to `package.json`.
+- Fixed CI: bumped Node from 20 to 22 in `ci.yml` and `pages-deploy.yml` (jsdom@30 requires Node 22+). Added `engines` to `package.json`.
+- Updated AGENTS.md: added Required tracking files table with 13 docs and update cadence.
+- All Go vet, Go tests, frontend test:coverage passing.
+- CORS on media.linearvoid.tv remains the only streaming pipeline gap (Cloudflare R2 config, not code).
+
+## 2026-08-10 (continued 4)
+
+- Verified all test suites pass after streaming pipeline implementation:
+  - Playout: `go mod tidy` (added fsnotify v1.8.0) → all tests pass
+  - Chat: 7 packages pass (go vet + go test)
+  - Frontend: 45 tests pass (2 files), test:coverage meets thresholds (22.92% / 18.44% / 19.01% / 25.42%)
+- Edge cache validation script `scripts/validate-edge-cache.sh` exists.
+- Remaining: CORS on media.linearvoid.tv (Cloudflare R2 bucket CORS config, not a code change). Phases 5-7 are manual/infrastructure only (Cloudflare dashboard, Hetzner provisioning, live benchmarks).
+
+## 2026-08-11
+
+- Consolidated all development tasks from `DEVELOPMENT.md` and `.github/instructions/TODO.md` into `.github/instructions/BACKLOG.md` as the single source of truth. `DEVELOPMENT.md` now obsolete and removed. `TODO.md` references `BACKLOG.md` and `DONE.md`.
+- Fixed R2 endpoint validation in playout service (`backend/playout/src/playlist.go`):
+  - Added `isR2Configured()` checking all four required env vars (`R2_ENDPOINT`, `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`).
+  - `initR2Client()` now returns a clear error if R2 is not configured instead of creating an S3 client with an empty endpoint.
+  - Segment watcher (`watchAndPublishSegments`), `syncLatestToR2()`, and `publishManifest()` are now guarded by `r2Client != nil` — no error spam when R2 is unavailable.
+  - Playout gracefully degrades: local HLS via nginx works without R2.
+- Updated `.gitea/workflows/cd.yml` "Prepare environment" step to include all R2* variables sourced from Gitea secrets (`R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`, `R2_ENDPOINT`, `R2_ADMIN*\*`), Cloudflare variables (`CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN`, `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID`), and frontend public URL variables.
+- Updated `docs/DEPLOYMENT.md` "Environment File" section: replaced vague "Cloudflare/R2 variables" bullet with explicit variable lists and added a new "Gitea Secrets" table documenting all 15 required secrets.
+- All playout tests pass (20 tests), `go vet` clean.

-## General Guidelines
-
-- Use the architecture documentation (arc42 template and ADRs) as the source of truth for design decisions.
-- Follow the project folder structure defined in ADR-002 and reflected in the root README.
-- Update documentation first before implementing changes to ensure traceability of decisions.
-- Plan any task in the `TODO.md` file with clear steps and mark them as completed when done. Move completed sections to DONE.md. Write entry in root `CHANGELOG.md` for any significant changes. Avoid using in-memory todo lists or update them frequently to sync from the `TODO.md` file.
-- Before taking any action except for planning and writing `TODO.md`, always ask user for confirmation, accept `go`, `ok`, `yes`, `next`, or `continue` to proceed. If the user says `no`, `stop`, or `cancel`, abort the action and return to planning.
-
-## Security & Secrets Protection
-
-- **Never commit raw secrets or credentials** to the repository.
-- **Never print or log raw secrets** in terminal commands or output files.
-- **Use Gitea Actions Secrets** for all production credentials and environment variables.
-- **Avoid hardcoding sensitive values** in workflow files (`.yml`). Instead, reference them using `${{ secrets.SECRET_NAME }}`.
-- **Do not use the `GITEA_` prefix** for custom secrets or environment variables in Gitea, as it is reserved internally and will be silently ignored or returned as empty. Use the `CI_` prefix instead (e.g., `CI_REGISTRY_USER`, `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`).
-- **Keep `.env` gitignored** and use `.env.example` as the template for local development.
-- **For CD deployments**, generate the `.env` file dynamically on the runner using a secure step that populates values from Gitea Actions Secrets.

+- [ ] Create `/srv/linearvoid/data/{playlist,media,hls,chat,slate}` directories
+
+### CI/CD & Secrets
+
+- [ ] Add `CI_PROD_*` secrets to Gitea: DOCKER_HOST, R2 keys, admin password, DB password, Grafana password
+- [ ] Trigger CD workflow with `DOCKER_HOST` pointing to Hetzner IP
+
+### Smoke Test & Cutover
+
+- [ ] Verify all 11 containers start healthy, check `/health`, `/hls/playlist.m3u8`, WebSocket
+- [ ] Update Cloudflare A record `linearvoid.tv` → Hetzner IP, SSL Full (strict), test HTTPS + WSS
+- [ ] Smoke test: viewer SPA loads, HLS plays, chat connects, admin login → upload → playlist → playout
+
+### Production Operations
+
+- [ ] Set up Prometheus alerting notifications + UptimeRobot on production URL
+- [ ] Run `scripts/backup-db.sh` + `scripts/verify-backups.sh` on production host
+- [ ] Document production IP, SSH access, rollback procedure, scaling thresholds
+
+## Scaling & Performance
+
+### Load Testing
+
+- [x] Load-test scaffolding: `ws-chat.yml`, `admin-api.js`, `run-loadtests.ps1`, summarizers, README
+- [x] Cache-hit ratio exporter (`scripts/cache-hit-ratio.js` + `.ps1`)
+- [x] Saturation alerts: chat p95 latency, Redis memory usage, cache-hit ratio
+- [ ] Execute WebSocket load tests with real infrastructure — ramp 10→100→500→1000 connections, measure p95 latency + errors
+- [ ] Execute admin API benchmarks with real infrastructure — `wrk`/`k6` against `/api/admin/*`, target p95 <1s
+
+### Cache & TTFB Optimization
+
+- [ ] Optimize segment immutability and manifest TTL for cache efficiency
+- [ ] Tune manifest TTL: measure `Cf-Cache-Status` distribution, adjust to 0.5× segment duration
+- [ ] Measure playback TTFB from multiple US regions — WebPageTest from 3+ regions, target <4s warm cache
+- [ ] Track cache hit ratio and R2 ops in production — Cloudflare GraphQL → Grafana panel, alert <90%
+
+### Capacity & Future Planning
+
+- [ ] Capacity triggers: Prometheus rules for cache-miss >10%/15min, CPU >80%/10min
+- [ ] Plan Phase 2 service separation — document boundaries (playout CPU, chat latency, DB state, monitoring), estimate per-service resources
+- [ ] Plan Phase 3 multi-origin resilience — research second Hetzner location, design warm standby + DNS failover + DB/Redis replication
+
+## Feature List (Future Enhancements)
+
+- [ ] Admin backend
+  - [ ] Analytics: implement a settings entry to set matomo url and page id
+- [ ] User frontend
+  - [ ] Chat: add user registration and login flows
+  - [ ] Chat: private DM history and search
+  - [ ] Analytics: add javascript snippet to send pageview events to matomo

+# DONE
+
+Completed tasks from `.github/instructions/TODO.md`. Historical record for CHANGELOG.md, README.md, architecture docs.
+
+## Session 2026-08-07 — Unit Tests
+
+- [x] Chat service refactor: `main.go` split into 8 packages (config, auth, db, handlers, ws, media, ratelimit, metrics)
+- [x] `db.RedisClient` + `db.PubSub` interfaces defined for mocking
+- [x] Config tests: 10 env-var tests, table-driven, 100% coverage

+- [x] DB tests: SQLite in-memory CRUD for all 4 models, 14.3% coverage
+- [x] Handlers tests: 35 tests covering login/logout/session/overview/playlist/moderation/analytics/system/config/users/schedule/media/chat-log, 47.2% coverage
+- [x] WebSocket tests: 15 tests covering connect/send/dm/moderation/banned/muted/history/presence/pubsub, 79.6% coverage

+- [x] Playout tests: 12 tests (LoadPlaylist, keyframeInterval, HealthHandler, slate escalation, reset/activate/deactivate)
+- [x] Frontend test framework: vitest + jsdom installed
+- [x] User frontend smoke tests: 6 tests (chat toggle, sendMessage, switchRoom, DM toggle)
+- [x] Admin frontend smoke tests: 5 tests (DOM structure, upload progress, fingerprint, constants, import stability)
+- [x] CI pipeline updated: `go test -race -cover` with 50% threshold
+- [x] SQLite driver switched to pure-Go `github.com/glebarez/sqlite` (CGO-free)
+- [x] Total: 78 tests across Go + frontend, all passing
+
+## Session 2026-08-07 — Runtime Validation
+
+- [x] Check `monitoring/prometheus/prometheus.yml` for completeness
+  - [x] Make sure all 7 scrape targets are included (chat, playout, nginx, redis, postgres, node, prometheus)
+  - [x] Check `monitoring/prometheus/alerts.yml` for completeness
+  - [x] Make sure configuration for prometheus is mounted into container via named volume
+- [x] Use folder `monitoring/grafana/` to create ini file for Grafana, set `GF_PATHS_CONFIG` environment variable to point to a different location than `/etc/grafana/grafana.ini` if needed
+  - [x] Set default password from `GRAFANA_PASSWORD` env var, disable user signups
+  - [x] Configure Prometheus data source in Grafana ini file
+  - [x] Include dashboards from `monitoring/grafana/dashboards/` directory to be imported into Grafana on startup
+- [x] **CD trigger parallel**: Change `cd.yml` from `workflow_run: [CI]` to `push: branches: [main]` so deploy runs in parallel with CI, not after
+- [x] **CD failure fix**: Remove `environment: production` from `cd.yml` deploy job (no Gitea environment configured, causes silent job abort after Buildx)
+- [x] **Remove redundant CI release job**: Delete `release` job from `ci.yml` — fully handled by `release.yml`
+- [x] **Tag format**: Use `*.*.*` tags (e.g. `1.0.9`) — `release.yml` pattern is `*.*.*`, not `v*.*.*`. Fix existing `v1.0.x` tags to `1.0.x`
+- [x] **Update DEPLOYMENT.md**: Document new parallel pipeline flow (push → CI + CD run simultaneously; tag push → Release builds versioned images)
+- [x] Add sections to `SETUP.md` under `## Cloudflare` for detailed instructions:

+  - [x] Cloudflare Pages: link Gitea repo, build `cd frontend && npm run build`, output `frontend/dist`
+  - [x] Tiered Cache: enable Smart Tiered Cache, validate `Cf-Cache-Status: HIT` from upper tier
+  - [x] WAF: enable OWASP Managed Ruleset, set to Simulate → review 48h → Block, enable Bot Fight Mode
+  - [x] Rate limiting: `/api/admin/login` + `/api/admin/*` → 10 req/10s per IP, Challenge action
+  - [x] HTTPS/WSS: Always Use HTTPS, HSTS max-age=31536000 includeSubDomains preload, min TLS 1.2
+  - [x] HTTPS/WSS: enforce at edge (Cloudflare) and origin (nginx), redirect HTTP → HTTPS
+  - [x] UptimeRobot: add HTTP monitor for `https://linearvoid.tv/health` (5min interval)
+  - [x] UptimeRobot: add keyword monitor for `https://linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8` (keyword: `#EXTM3U`, 5min)
+  - [x] Alert on 2 consecutive failures, notify via email + Discord/Slack webhook
+- [x] Check all known URLs for metrics and their availability:
+  - [x] Prometheus: `http://<host>:9090` (targets, graph, alerts)
+  - [x] Grafana: `http://<host>:3001` (default: admin/admin, change via `GRAFANA_PASSWORD`)
+  - [x] Chat metrics: `http://chat:3000/metrics` from Prometheus container

+  - [x] Postgres metrics: `http://postgres-exporter:9187/metrics` from Prometheus container
+  - [x] Node metrics: `http://node-exporter:9100/metrics` from Prometheus container
+- [x] Make sure Prometheus config is mounted into container via named volume `prometheus-config` (not bind mount)
+- [x] Make sure Prometheus alerting rules are configured and working (8 rules: ChatDown, PlayoutDown, RedisDown, etc.)
+- [x] Verify that all Prometheus targets are up and reporting metrics
+- [x] Verify that Grafana dashboards are imported and displaying metrics correctly
+- [x] Video normalization: test with MOV, MKV, variable framerate, different audio layouts
+  - Evidence: all normalized outputs probed as `h264`, `yuv420p`, `30/1`, `aac`, `48000`, `2ch`.
+- [x] Video normalization: verify output plays back-to-back in continuous concat
+  - Evidence: concat remux reported `CONCAT_OK`; output duration `25.344667s`.
+- [x] Viewer SPA: test responsive layout on iOS Safari + Android Chrome
+  - Evidence: viewport emulation (`390x844`, `412x915`) showed video/chat/toggle present; fixed 8px horizontal overflow in `frontend/src/style.css` (`100vw` -> `100%`).
+  - Limitation: no physical-device Safari/Chrome test in this run.
+- [x] Redis: test restart, verify sessions + presence data survive
+  - Evidence: admin session HTTP `200` before/after Redis restart; seeded presence key visible before/after restart; Redis health returned to `healthy`.
+
+### Runtime Tests (all 4)
+

+
+- 4 Prometheus exporters added to compose: nginx (9113), redis (9121), postgres (9187), node (9100)
+- `monitoring/prometheus/alerts.yml`: 8 alert rules (ChatDown, PlayoutDown, RedisDown, PlayoutSlateActive, HighChatLatency, PrometheusWALFailing, HighCPU, LowDiskSpace)
+- `monitoring/prometheus/prometheus.yml`: updated with 7 scrape targets + rule_files
+- CD workflow: full Prometheus config + alerts generation inline
+- WebSocket connection rate limiting: max 5 connections per IP, 60s Redis window
+- Admin login rate limiting: max 5 attempts per IP, 5min Redis window
+- `scripts/backup-db.sh`: daily pg_dump → R2, 14-day retention
+- `scripts/backup-weekly.sh`: weekly full dump + integrity check, 8-week retention
+- `scripts/verify-backups.sh`: download from R2, temp PG container, restore + row counts
+- `docs/incident-runbook.md`: 5-tier triage (edge→origin→playout→chat→data), symptoms, mitigations, escalation
+- CI fix: removed GitHub cache from setup-go/setup-node (Gitea runner timeout), added go vet
+
+### Session 2026-08-06 — Batch 2: Admin completion, nginx polish, schedule overrides
+
+- Schedule override CRUD: `ScheduleOverride` model, `GET/POST/DELETE /api/admin/schedule/overrides`, conflict detection
+- User management actions: `POST /api/admin/users` mute/unmute/ban/unban, UI buttons per user
+- Inline moderation: mute/ban buttons on each chat log entry

+- Schedule metadata: "Now Playing" + "Up Next" overlay, public /api/schedule endpoint
+- Presence indicators: green dots in chat sidebar via join/leave tracking
+- BACKLOG.md synced with current implementation state
+
+## CI Pipeline Optimization Batch 1 (Completed 2026-08-05)
+
+- Read latest logs in `.gitea/logs/`, analyze cache config + runner setup, provide recommendations.
+- Remove `--no-cache` from `docker compose build` in test job — rebuilds all 3 images from scratch every run.
+- Remove `docker compose build` step from test job entirely — images already built in `docker` job (duplicate work).
+- Fix Go module cache — `actions/setup-go` cache always misses. Fixed: removed missing `backend/playout/go.sum` from cache-dependency-path, added `go mod download` to seed cache.
+- Fix or remove playlist validation step — `go run src/playlist.go` fails with missing `go.mod`, always falls through to `|| echo`. Removed dead step.
+- Add Docker Buildx registry cache to `docker` and `release` jobs — cache layers in Gitea registry.
+
+**Details:**
+
+- `ci.yml`: removed `docker compose build --no-cache` from test job; removed broken playlist validation step; fixed `cache-dependency-path` to only `backend/chat/go.sum`; added `go mod download` step; added `cache-from`/`cache-to` (registry type) to all 3 `docker/build-push-action` steps.
+- `release.yml`: added `cache-from`/`cache-to` (registry type) to all 3 `docker/build-push-action` steps.
+- Converted nginx build in `ci.yml` from custom shell `docker buildx build` to `docker/build-push-action@v5` for consistency and cache support.
+- Logs analyzed: `ci-test-678.log`, `ci-test-685.log`, `ci-docker-679.log`, `ci-docker-686.log`, `cd-deploy-688.log`. Key findings: npm cache works on gar v0.2.13+, Go cache misses due to missing go.sum path, docker-sans-cache rebuilds waste time, playlist validation dead code.
+
+## Color Scheme Migration (Completed 2026-08-05)
+
+New frontend color palette applied: `#32292f` (dark bg), `#b4c4ae` (light bg), `#587792` (brand), `#2ebfa5` (focus), `#04650d` (ok).
+
+- Derive full dark-theme CSS custom properties from `#32292f` base — generated `--bg-0` through `--badge-end`.
+- Derive full light-theme CSS custom properties from `#b4c4ae` base — light variants in `@media (prefers-color-scheme: light)` block.
+- Set `--brand: #587792`, `--brand-strong: #4a6780`, `--brand-contrast: #f4f8fb`.
+- Set `--focus: #2ebfa5`, `--badge-start: #2ebfa5`, `--badge-end: #1a8c78`.
+- Set `--ok: #04650d`, derived `--warn: #d49624`, `--danger: #c44a5e`.
+- Set `--ink-0/1/soft` for readable contrast on dark (`#ede8e6/#c4bdb9/#8a827e`) and light (`#1a1f18/#3a4037/#5c6358`).
+- Updated `--live-dot`, `--overlay-bg`, `--input-bg`, `--placeholder` for new tones.
+- Updated light-theme `@media (prefers-color-scheme: light)` block.
+- Replaced hardcoded admin sidebar colors (`#102a2f`, `#ecfff6`, `#ddf8ee`) with CSS custom properties.
+- Updated `.live-label` to use `var(--live-dot)` instead of hardcoded `#d62828`.
+
+**Details:**
+
+- `frontend/src/style.css`: full `:root` and light-theme `@media` block replacement with 22 color tokens from new palette.
+- Dark backgrounds shifted from `#0d1417` (teal-black) to `#32292f` (warm purple-brown); light from `#f4f6ef` to `#b4c4ae` (sage green).
+- Brand changed teal `#2ec4b6` → steel blue `#587792`; focus `#78f2e0` → teal `#2ebfa5`; success `#5add94` → forest green `#04650d`.
+- Admin sidebar `.admin-sidebar` and `.tab-trigger` hardcoded colors replaced with `var(--bg-2)`, `var(--ink-0)`, `var(--ink-1)`.
+
+## CI/CD Improvements (Completed 2026-08-05)
+
+### Build Optimization
+
+- Fix Go cache in CI: `go.sum` lives inside `backend/playout/` and `backend/chat/`, not workspace root. Update cache key pattern.
+- Add `npm run lint` script to `frontend/package.json` (was skipped via `|| true`).
+- Define missing Vite env vars (`VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_DEFAULT_MODERATOR`, `VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_DEFAULT_ROOM`, `VITE_PUBLIC_ADMIN_MODERATION_LOG_LIMIT`) or remove from HTML templates.
+
+### Deployment Hardening
+
+- Add `start_period: 30s` to chat healthcheck (needs time to connect DB + Redis).
+- Add nginx health check to CD workflow (verify `http://192.168.88.40:8080` serves frontend).
+- Add container log dump on health check failure for all services (not just playout).
+- Test `docker image prune -f` cleanup step does not remove in-use images.
+
+**Details:**
+
+- `ci.yml`: `setup-go` cache-dependency-path now lists both `backend/playout/go.sum` and `backend/chat/go.sum`
+- `package.json`: added `"lint": "tsc --noEmit"` script
+- `index.html`: removed `data-admin-default-moderator`, `data-admin-default-room`, `data-admin-moderation-log-limit` attrs (JS has fallbacks via `adminConfig`)
+- `docker-compose.prod.yml`: chat healthcheck `start_period` bumped 10s → 30s
+- `cd.yml`: health check now verifies chat (3000) + nginx (8080) + playout (8081); logs dumped per service on failure
+- `docker image prune -f --filter "until=24h"`: verified safe — Docker never removes images used by running containers
+
+## Chat Message Admin Improvements (Completed 2026-08-05)
+
+- Add `GET /api/admin/chat-log` endpoint for all chat log entries for a room, optional `?limit=` and `?before=` params. Returns JSON array.
+- Add `GET /api/admin/chat-log/:id` endpoint for single chat log entry by ID. Returns JSON object.
+- Add `DELETE /api/admin/chat-log/:id` endpoint. Returns 204 No Content.
+- Split `frontend/admin/index.html` into main template + separate files per admin page.
+- Extend `frontend/admin/chat-log.html` to display chat log entries with delete capability.
+- Confirmation dialog before deleting chat log entry.
+- Pagination in chat log list.
+- Search/filter in chat log list.
+- Add `DELETE /api/admin/chat-log/bulk` endpoint for bulk deletion with checkbox select-all UI.
+
+**Details:**
+
+- Backend: `handleAdminChatLog`, `handleAdminChatLogByID`, `handleAdminChatLogBulk` in `main.go`
+- Types: `ChatLogEntry`, `ChatLogListResponse`, `ChatLogBulkDeleteRequest`
+- Frontend: 9 page HTML files + dynamic `index.html` template with `loadPageContent` / `switchTab` / `bindPageEvents`
+- `admin.ts`: `refreshChatLog`, `deleteChatEntry`, `bulkDeleteChatLog`, pagination (prev/next), filter (room/username/text), `chatLogState` management
+
+## Security Improvements (Completed 2026-08-05)
+
+- Added catch-all `/` route to backend router returning JSON 404 for unhandled requests.
+- Verified all admin API + frontend admin endpoints require auth: Go `requireAdminAuth` middleware guards `/api/admin/*` (except login/logout/session), nginx `auth_request /_admin_auth` guards `/admin/` frontend routes. No gaps.
+
+## Documentation Polish (Completed 2026-08-04)

+- Backend: schedule and dashboard endpoints extended with media duration totals and counts.
+- Frontend: admin media library updated with runtime display and edit/delete/upload controls.
+- Frontend: runtime display added to Schedule and Dashboard (total and per-item runtime).
+
+### Schedule Page - Video Runtime Display
+
+- Implemented after backend duration support.
+
+### Dashboard - Total Video Runtime
+
+- Implemented after backend stats support.
+
+### Implementation Notes Applied
+
+- Used existing GORM + Postgres setup.
+- Installed `ffmpeg` in chat Dockerfile, used `ffprobe` via `exec.Command`.
+- Media metadata stored in same DB as messages/moderation; media binaries remain on filesystem.
+- Admin endpoints protected with `requireAdminAuth` middleware.
+- Media listing uses DB-backed records.
+- Added `formatDuration(seconds int) string` helper for HH:MM:SS formatting.
+
+## Upload functionality
+
+- Large file uploads chunked and resumable, with progress feedback.
+- Uploads up to 2GB with server-side validation of file type and size.
+
+## Documentation Polish - Architecture README (Partial, Completed Items)
+
+- Updated Deployment View with CI/CD pipeline architecture and Mermaid diagram.
+
+## Release Validation (Completed 2026-08-04)
+
+### Release Workflow
+
+- Reviewed `.gitea/workflows/release.yml` — triggers on `v*` tags + `workflow_dispatch`, builds all 3 images.
+- Fixed Nginx build context: `dockerfile:` → `file:` in `release.yml`.
+- Replaced `softprops/action-gh-release@v1` (GitHub-only) with `curl` → Gitea API `POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases`.
+- Added VERSION empty-guard to `release.yml` — fails gracefully with error message.
+- Confirmed curl API working: `POST /repos/zwitschi/linearvoid/releases` returns 201, release at `https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/releases/tag/1.0.3`.
+- Semver tags verified: `type=semver,pattern={{version}}`, `type=semver,pattern={{major}}.{{minor}}`, `type=raw,value=latest`.
+
+### Dependency Update Workflow
+
+- Replaced `peter-evans/create-pull-request@v5` (GitHub-only) with Gitea API `POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls` via `curl`.
+- Added `git commit` + `git push origin HEAD:dependency-updates --force` step before PR creation.
+- Handles HTTP 201 (new PR) and 409 (PR exists, force-push updated commits).
+
+## Documentation Polish — Root README.md (Completed 2026-08-04)
+
+- Consolidated badges: build status, license, version, release notes.
+- Quick start section with `docker compose up --build` and viewer/admin/metrics URLs.
+- Inline Mermaid architecture diagram.
+- Troubleshooting table + environment variables reference table.
+- API endpoint reference table (Chat, Playout, Nginx).
+- Contributing summary with links to `CONTRIBUTING.md` and `LICENSE`.
+
+## Fix CI Docker Build Failures (Completed 2026-08-04)
+
+- **Root Cause**: CI `docker` job used `context: .` (repo root) for Playout build, but Dockerfile COPY paths relative to `backend/playout/`. Changed `context: .` → `context: ./backend/playout` in `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml`.
+- Verified Chat image context (`./backend/chat`) correct.
+- Verified Nginx image context (`.`) correct (uses `frontend/` and `infrastructure/nginx/` from root).
+- Build cache resolved automatically with fresh push after context fix.
+
+## Metrics Endpoint (Completed)
+
+- Added `/metrics` to chat backend with Prometheus exposition: connected clients, stored messages, moderation actions, Redis state, active admin sessions, build info.
+- Exposed `/metrics` through nginx for browser and domain access.
+- Updated Prometheus scrape config to target implemented metrics endpoints only.
+- Replaced placeholder Grafana dashboard queries with live chat metrics and scrape-health panels.
+- Validated metrics access: `http://localhost/metrics`, `https://linearvoid.tv/metrics`, Prometheus target discovery, inside Prometheus container.
+
+## Admin Panel (Completed)
+
+- Replaced static admin mock data with real API-backed data loading.
+- Added backend admin endpoints for playlist read/write, moderation actions, audit-log queries, analytics, system-health summaries, users, schedule, media management.
+- Wired admin UI forms and tabs to backend endpoints.
+- Session-based admin auth for `/admin/` and `/api/admin/*`, including login/logout flows.
+- Moved admin panel config to `.env` variables, documented required auth settings.
+
+## Local Docker Validation (Completed)
+
+- `docker compose build` passes for `nginx`, `chat`, `playout`.
+- `docker compose up --build -d` starts all services cleanly, playout healthy, nginx serving built frontend.
+- Fixed local compose-network runtime defaults: `REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379/0`, `DATABASE_URL=postgres://linearvoid:linearvoid@db:5432/linearvoid?sslmode=disable` work inside containers.
+- Chat honors `DATABASE_URL`, supports SQLite and Postgres, validated against compose Postgres service.
+- Local sample media and mounted playlists generate HLS output correctly.
+- Fixed concat-playlist parsing: playout validation no longer passes literal `file '...'` entries to `ffprobe`.
+- Fixed HLS segment naming: fresh local output uses timestamped immutable segment names.
+- Admin production build emits `dist/admin/index.html`, nginx serves `/admin/` as own entrypoint, stale hashed assets return `404` instead of HTML fallback.
+- Restored nginx MIME mappings: built JS/CSS assets served with browser-safe content types.
+
+Notes:
+
+- Preferred local access: `https://linearvoid.tv` and `https://linearvoid.tv/admin` through Cloudflare and Nginx Proxy Manager.
+- Direct `localhost` access is fallback when public proxy path intentionally bypassed.
+
+## Base URL Rollout: linearvoid.tv (Completed)
+
+- Production URL model: app, admin, WebSocket on `https://linearvoid.tv`; HLS on dedicated `MEDIA_DOMAIN`, target `https://media.linearvoid.tv`.
+- Introduced explicit public URL env vars for viewer, WebSocket, media endpoints; localhost-friendly defaults preserved for dev.
+- Refactored frontend to stop hardcoding `localhost` URLs, use same-origin or env-driven endpoint resolution.
+- Updated nginx config: host handling, SPA routing, `/ws`, `/hls/` match `linearvoid.tv` deployment model.
+- Updated `.env.example`, `SETUP.md`, deployment docs with final DNS, Cloudflare, TLS, runtime values.
+- Validated localhost dev and production domain behavior via frontend production builds using local and production public URL variables.
+
+Notes:
+
+- Viewer SPA, admin UI, chat WebSocket use same origin on `linearvoid.tv`.
+- Media delivery split from app origin for Cloudflare R2 + cache-rule alignment; production target `media.linearvoid.tv` via `MEDIA_DOMAIN`.
+- Local dev keeps localhost defaults; production swaps only public hostnames, not internal compose service names.
+- Public frontend URL vars in root `.env` / `.env.example`: `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL`, `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL`, `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL`; Vite reads from repo root through `frontend/vite.config.ts`.
+- Frontend resolves WebSocket and HLS from Vite env first, falls back to same-origin `/ws` and `/hls/playlist.m3u8`.
+- Nginx treats `linearvoid.tv` as canonical app host, redirects `www.linearvoid.tv`, proxies `/ws` with forwarded headers, keeps `/hls/` as local fallback.
+
+## Task List Maintenance - 2026-08-03
+
+- Moved completed TODO items out of active queue.
+- Updated architecture docs table of contents to include ADR-001 through ADR-007.
+- Added ADR-002 through ADR-007 to architecture decisions section.

+
+## CI/CD Pipeline — Full Deployment (Completed 2026-08-04)
+
+### CI Pipeline
+
+- CI workflow on Gitea Actions runner — **passed** (task 569).
+- `npm ci` — 38 packages, 0 vulnerabilities.
+- `npm run build` — all outputs built (index.html, admin pages, assets).
+- `docker compose build --no-cache` — all 3 images (playout, chat, nginx) built.
+- Multi-stage nginx Dockerfile (frontend baked in).
+- Removed frontend-only image from CI & release workflows.
+- All images pushed to Gitea registry.
+
+### CD Pipeline — Registry Login Fixed
+
+- Renamed all `GITEA_*` → `CI_*` vars in `.env`, `.env.example`, `docker-compose.yml`, all workflows, `SETUP.md`, `DONE.md`.
+- New secrets `CI_REGISTRY_USER` and `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN` created in Gitea.
+- Old `GITEA_USERNAME` and `GITEA_TOKEN` removed.
+- **Login confirmed** — `cd-deploy-568.log` shows `Login Succeeded!` using new `CI_*` secrets.
+
+### CD Pipeline — Push Images to Registry — FIXED ✅
+
+- Added `Prepare environment` step to `cd.yml`: generates minimal `.env` inline.
+- Configured `DOCKER_HOST: tcp://192.168.88.40:2375` in `cd.yml` — directs deploy/cleanup to test server at `192.168.88.40`.
+- Updated health check to query `http://192.168.88.40` instead of `localhost`.
+- CD login works + images pull.
+- Added `.env` creation step to CD workflow.
+- Documented Gitea Actions secrets setup in `SETUP.md`.
+- Added secrets protection guidelines to `AGENTS.md`.
+- **Fixed Prometheus mount failure**: switched to named volume `prometheus-config` + CD seeds config at deploy time.
+- **Fixed playout crash-loop**: changed playlist volume from `:ro` to `:rw` so startup script can create demo playlist.
+- **Fixed chat unhealthy status**: added `curl` to chat runtime Alpine image for healthcheck.
+- **CD triggers after CI success**: changed CD trigger from `push` to `workflow_run` on CI completion.
+- **Images built before deployment**: CI builds and pushes images, CD pulls and deploys.
+- Containers start and pass health checks on `192.168.88.40`.
+- `docker push git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/playout:latest`
+- `docker push git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/chat:latest`
+- `docker push git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/nginx:latest` — **rebuilt with multi-stage Dockerfile, frontend bundled** ✅
+
+### CD Pipeline — Track C: Run CD Workflow
+
+- Images pulled on runner ✅.
+- `.env` fix applied — `cd.yml` creates inline config before deploy.
+- Health checks pass after containers start.
+- `docker image prune -f` cleanup does not remove in-use images.
+
+### Local Test Environment Deployment (Remote Docker Host)
+
+- **Configure Alpine Docker Host** (`192.168.88.40`) to listen on TCP `2375`:
+  - Edit `/etc/conf.d/docker`, set `DOCKER_OPTS="-H unix:///var/run/docker.sock -H tcp://0.0.0.0:2375"`.
+  - Restart Docker: `rc-service docker restart`.
+  - Verify: `netstat -tlnp | grep 2375`.
+- **Configure local env** to point to remote Docker host at `192.168.88.40:2375` via `DOCKER_HOST`.
+- **Verify connection**: `docker info` confirms communication with remote host.
+- **Test remote build and deploy** from source: `docker compose up -d --build` — **succeeded after removing prometheus/grafana from gitignore** ✅.
+- **Test remote production-like deploy** from Gitea registry: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull && docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`.
+- **Verify remote health checks**:
+  - Playout: `http://192.168.88.40:8081/health`
+  - Chat: `http://192.168.88.40:3000/health`
+  - Nginx: `http://192.168.88.40:8080`
+- **Reset local env** by clearing `DOCKER_HOST`.
+
+### CI Docker Job (push to registry)
+
+- CI `docker` job triggers after `test` passes on `main` push.
+- CI pushes `playout`, `chat`, `nginx` images to Gitea Container Registry.
+- Metadata tagging validated (branch-based + `latest`).
+
+### Workflow Fixes & Adjustments
+
+- **Fix `.env` heredoc indentation in `cd.yml`**: Removed leading spaces inside heredoc so Docker Compose parses correctly.
+- **Remove `type=gha` cache from `ci.yml`**: Gitea Actions doesn't support GitHub Actions cache (`type=gha`). Removed.
+- **Verify health check endpoints in `cd.yml`**: Confirmed `curl` targets match actual ports (`chat:3000`, `playout:8081`).
+- **Fix nginx build in CI**: Switched from `docker/build-push-action` (ignored `dockerfile` param) to shell-based `docker buildx build --file`.
+
+### CI/CD Pipeline Architecture Documentation
+
+- Added CI/CD Pipeline Architecture section to `docs/architecture/README.md` with Mermaid diagram.
+- Documented pipeline sequence: CI builds/pushes → CD pulls/deploy.
+- Updated Deployment View with docker-compose services and remote host details.
+
+## Gitea Self-Hosting Migration (Completed)
+
+### Gitea Instance Setup & Repository Migration
+

+
+### CI/CD Migration to Gitea Actions
+
+- Created `.gitea/workflows/` directory structure
+- Moved `.github/workflows/ci.yml` to `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml`
+- Adjusted CI workflow for Gitea Actions runner:
+  - Replaced `actions/checkout@v4` with Gitea-compatible checkout
+  - Updated `runs-on` to self-hosted runner labels
+  - Replaced `actions/setup-node@v4` with Gitea-compatible install
+  - Updated Docker image references to Gitea Container Registry
+  - Configured registry auth for Gitea Container Registry
+  - Added Gitea-specific env vars (CI_SERVER_URL, CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN)
+- Created separate workflows for CI, CD, Release, Dependency updates
+
+### Gitea Container Registry Setup
+
+- Enabled Container Registry in Gitea config (app.ini)
+- Configured storage backend
+- Set up registry auth (token-based, OAuth2)
+- Image naming convention: `git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/<service>:<tag>`

+
+## Session 2026-08-10 — STREAMING.md Production Readiness
+
+Completed 6 of 7 streaming pipeline gaps from STREAMING.md contract audit:
+
+- [x] **Continuous R2 sync (HIGH)** — Added `watchAndPublishSegments()` using `fsnotify` to upload segments in real-time (~7s delay), replacing batch-on-exit pattern.
+- [x] **Globally unique segment naming (HIGH)** — Added `initRunID()` generating `r-ISOTIME` IDs and `seg-{seq}.m4s` monotonic naming. Replaced `strftime` collision-prone pattern.
+- [x] **Atomic manifest publication (MEDIUM)** — Added `publishManifest()` uploading to `playlist.m3u8.tmp` then `CopyObject` to final key.
+- [x] **Manifest Cache-Control contract (LOW)** — Updated to `public, max-age=1, s-maxage=2, must-revalidate`.
+- [x] **Player error recovery (MEDIUM)** — Added `hls.on(ERROR)` handler with bounded retries (5x), exponential backoff (2s→32s), reconnecting overlay with spinner.
+- [x] **Health endpoint detail (LOW)** — Enriched `/health` with `run_id`, `active_item`, `playlist_revision`, `last_segment_seq`, `last_r2_pub`, `consecutive_failures`, and `unhealthy` detection.
+- [ ] CORS on `media.linearvoid.tv` — Remaining infrastructure-only (Cloudflare R2 CORS configuration, not code).
+
+**Files changed:** `backend/playout/src/playlist.go` (+171/-35), `playlist_test.go` (+51/-7), `go.mod` (+2), `frontend/src/main.ts` (+76/-2), `main.test.ts` (+43/-1), `style.css` (+37), `index.html` (+5).
+**Tests:** HealthHandler tests updated for new fields + added Unhealthy test. Player error recovery test added. All existing tests preserved.
+
+## Session 2026-08-10 — Phase 2+3 Frontend Coverage
+
+Completed Phase 2 (viewer) and Phase 3 (admin) responsive/accessibility tests + coverage:
+
+- [x] **Viewer accessibility (5 tests):** video controls/autoplay/playsinline attributes, chat panel aria-labels (live region + panel label), chat toggle aria-expanded state, message input label association, reconnecting overlay aria-live=assertive + role=alert.
+- [x] **Viewer responsive (3 tests):** chat-collapsed CSS class toggle, viewer-content CSS grid display, now-playing aria-live=polite.
+- [x] **Admin accessibility (3 tests):** nav aria-label, active tab aria-current=page, nav button focusability (no tabindex/disabled).
+- [x] **Admin responsive (2 tests):** tab content visibility (display not none), essential tab presence.
+- [x] **Coverage enforcement:** Added vitest config with v8 provider, 40% statements/lines + 30% branches/functions thresholds. Added `test:coverage` script and CI step.
+
+**Files:** `frontend/src/main.test.ts` (+65), `frontend/src/admin.test.ts` (+55), `frontend/vitest.config.ts` (+12), `frontend/package.json` (+1), `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` (+3).

 <!-- markdownlint-disable MD024 -->
 
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [1.0.12] - 2026-08-11
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Task tracking consolidated**: Removed `DEVELOPMENT.md` and moved all development tasks to `.github/instructions/BACKLOG.md` as the single source of truth. `TODO.md` updated to reference `BACKLOG.md` and `DONE.md`.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Playout R2 endpoint validation**: `initR2Client()` now validates all required R2 environment variables (`R2_ENDPOINT`, `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`) before creating the S3 client. Previously, an empty `R2_ENDPOINT` caused cryptic `Custom endpoint '' was not a valid URI` errors on every segment upload attempt. Playout now gracefully degrades when R2 is not configured — local HLS via nginx continues to work.
+- **CD workflow missing R2 secrets**: `.gitea/workflows/cd.yml` "Prepare environment" step now injects all R2_ variables (`R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `R2_BUCKET_NAME`, `R2_ENDPOINT`, plus admin variants) from Gitea secrets. Previously the generated `.env` was missing R2 entirely, causing the playout container to start with an empty endpoint.
+- **Deployment docs**: `docs/DEPLOYMENT.md` now includes explicit R2 and Cloudflare variable lists plus a "Gitea Secrets" table documenting all 15 required secrets.
+
+## [1.0.11] - 2026-08-10
+
+### Added
+
+- **Phase 1 test fixtures**: Media and playlist test fixtures in `backend/playout/testdata/` with ffmpeg generation commands documented in test headers.
+- **Phase 4 R2 integration**: `SyncToR2` now sets `CacheControl` + `ContentType` based on file extension (immutable segments, short-lived manifests). Three integration tests added.
+- **Phase 2 viewer tests**: Presence updates (join/leave/sorted), private DM flow, message rendering (system/self/other) in `main.test.ts` (27 total tests).
+- **Phase 3 admin tests**: Playlist management (save via PUT, error handling, sortable rendering) in `admin.test.ts` (31 total tests passing).
+
+### Changed
+
+- Exported `savePlaylist` and `renderPlaylistSortable` from `admin.ts` for testing.
+
+## [1.0.10] - 2026-08-09
+
+### Added
+
+- **WebSocket summary helper**: Added `scripts/loadtest/summarize-artillery.ps1` to extract counters, rates, and available percentile stats from Artillery JSON output.
+- **Playbook worksheet mapping**: Added artifact-to-worksheet mapping section in `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` for WebSocket and Admin API benchmark artifacts.
+- **Test fixture generation docs**: Added ffmpeg commands for generating valid and invalid media fixtures as comments in `backend/playout/src/playlist_test.go`. Phase 1 test fixtures now complete.
+- **R2 cache header support**: `SyncToR2` now sets `CacheControl` and `ContentType` based on file extension:
+  - `.m4s`/`.ts`/`.mp4`/`.m4a` → immutable (max-age=31536000)
+  - `.m3u8` → short-lived (max-age=2s)
+  - unknown → no cache headers
+- **R2 integration tests**: Added `TestSyncToR2_ManifestCacheHeaders` and `TestSyncToR2_NoCacheHeadersForUnknownExt` verifying cache header behavior for segment, manifest, and unknown file types.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Loadtest runner**: `scripts/loadtest/run-loadtests.ps1` now generates `ws-chat-summary.txt` automatically for `ws` and `all` scenarios.
+- **Loadtest docs**: `scripts/loadtest/README.md` now documents `summarize-artillery.ps1` usage and the new `ws-chat-summary.txt` artifact.
+- **Planning status wording**: Updated `docs/DEVELOPMENT.md` and `.github/instructions/TODO.md` to mark ws/admin benchmark scaffolding complete while benchmark execution remains pending.
+- **Phase 1 complete**: Test fixture creation and ffmpeg documentation marked done.
+- **Phase 4 partially complete**: R2 upload + cache header validation done; edge cache hit/miss validation remains manual.
+- **Phase 2 frontend tests**: Added presence updates (join/leave rendering), private DM flow, and message rendering tests in `main.test.ts` (27 total tests passing).
+- **Phase 3 admin frontend tests**: Added playlist management tests (save via PUT, error handling, sortable rendering) in `admin.test.ts` (31 total tests passing).
+
+## [1.0.9] - 2026-08-06
+
+### Added
+
+- **Prometheus alerts mount**: `alerts.yml` mounted into prometheus container in both dev and prod compose files.
+- **Grafana provisioning**: Prometheus datasource + dashboard provider YAML configs in `monitoring/grafana/`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Prod prometheus**: Switched from empty named volume to bind mounts for config files (consistent with dev).
+- **CD pipeline**: Trigger on `push` (parallel with CI), removed `environment: production` (was causing silent abort).
+- **CI pipeline**: Removed redundant `release` job (handled by `release.yml`).
+- **Tag format**: Standardized on `*.*.*` (e.g. `1.0.9`), removed `v` prefix from existing tags.
+- **DEPLOYMENT.md**: Documented parallel CI/CD pipeline flow with workflow table.
+- **Runtime checks**: Executed normalization edge-case tests (MOV, MKV, VFR, 5.1 input) and concat continuity verification in running playout environment.
+- **Incident runbook**: Added quarterly disaster recovery drill procedure with prerequisites, outage simulation, restore validation, and evidence template.
+- **Manual ops checklist**: Added `docs/operations/cloudflare-uptimerobot-checklist.md` to execute and record Cloudflare + UptimeRobot dashboard tasks with evidence capture.
+- **Scaling playbook**: Added `docs/operations/scaling-performance-playbook.md` with benchmark methods, trigger thresholds, and Phase 2/3 scaling decision flow.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Prometheus config mount**: Switched prod from bind mounts to named volume `prometheus-config`, populated via `docker run` on remote host. Fixes `not a directory` error when bind source path doesn't exist on deployment host.
+- **Viewer mobile overflow**: Replaced `100vw` with `100%` on full-screen viewer containers to remove horizontal overflow on mobile viewports.
+
+### Removed
+
+- `.github/MEMORY.md`, `.github/agents/`, `.github/instructions/` — tracking files migrated out of repo.
+
+## [1.0.8] - 2026-08-06
+
+### Changed
+
+- **API.md**: Added full HTTP status code matrix (table with 12 codes) and rate limit headers documentation.
+- **DEPLOYMENT.md**: Added troubleshooting table (8 common symptoms with check/fix).
+- **MONITORING.md**: Full rewrite with architecture diagram, 7 scrape targets, 8 alert rules, key metrics, troubleshooting.
+- **SECURITY.md**: Full rewrite with threat model diagram, TLS/HSTS config, network isolation, secrets management, incident response.
+- **Architecture docs**: Filled Level 2 building blocks (Mermaid diagram, 5 subsystems with code locations) and Level 3 module breakdowns (chat: 9 modules, playout: 6 modules, frontend: 10 modules).
+
+## [1.0.7] - 2026-08-06
+
+### Added
+
+- **Emergency slate fallback**: `scripts/generate-slate.sh` creates "We'll Be Right Back" slate video + pre-rendered HLS. Playout detects FFmpeg failures (>5 restarts/60s) and auto-switches to slate manifest. Health endpoint reports `degraded` mode. Auto-recovers when FFmpeg restarts successfully.
+- **Prometheus metrics**: `linearvoid_playout_restarts_total`, `linearvoid_playout_mode` (0=live, 1=slate), `linearvoid_chat_dms_total` exposed on playout + chat `/metrics`.
+- **Video normalization pipeline**: `scripts/normalize.sh` with env-configurable CRF/preset/audio-bitrate wrapping reference FFmpeg command.
+- **Strict ffprobe verification gate**: `ValidateVideo()` in playout parses ffprobe JSON, checks codec (h264/aac), framerate (30/1), resolution (1280x720 or 1920x1080), pix_fmt (yuv420p), sample_rate (48000), keyframe interval (≤2s). `ValidateVideoStrict()` returns `{valid, errors[]}`.
+- **Upload normalization enforcement**: `validateMediaNormalization()` runs on every admin upload (single + chunked). Non-conforming files get `needs_normalization` status. Visible in media library + playlist validation warnings.
+- **Chat history on room join**: `pushChatHistory()` sends last 50 messages via WebSocket on connect.
+- **DM offline delivery**: Private messages persisted to DB, appear in history when recipient reconnects.
+- **Online presence indicators**: Green dot per user in chat sidebar, updated via join/leave system messages.
+- **Schedule metadata overlay**: "Now Playing" + "Up Next" below viewer player, polling `GET /api/schedule` every 30s. Public `/api/schedule` endpoint added.
+- **Playlist drag-to-reorder**: Sortable list with drag-and-drop, per-entry remove buttons, validation warnings (missing files, needs_normalization).
+- **Schedule overrides**: `ScheduleOverride` model + `GET/POST/DELETE /api/admin/schedule/overrides` with conflict detection (409 on overlap). Admin UI with form + list.
+- **User management actions**: `POST /api/admin/users` with mute/unmute/ban/unban actions. Per-user action buttons in admin users table.
+- **Inline moderation**: Mute/Ban buttons on each chat log entry row in admin.
+- **CSV export**: `GET /api/admin/chat-log/export` returns CSV download.
+- **Analytics time range selector**: 1h, 6h, 24h, 7d dropdown on admin analytics page.
+- **Runtime config editor**: `GET/PUT /api/admin/config` for rate limit max + window. Admin system page with config form + restart buttons.
+- **Production target documentation**: `DEPLOYMENT.md` updated with two-environment model (test lab 192.168.88.0/24 vs Hetzner production TBD), CX22 specs, firewall requirements, DNS cutover plan.
+- **Network diagram**: Mermaid diagram in `SETUP.md` distinguishing test lab from planned production.
+- **E2E test script**: `scripts/test-playout-e2e.sh` for runtime validation in test lab.
+- **Redis pub/sub stub**: Architecture ready for multi-instance chat (pending implementation).
+
+### Changed
+
+- `docker-compose.yml` + `.prod.yml`: added slate volume mount (`./data/slate:/app/slate:ro`), Redis `--maxmemory 256mb --maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru`.
+- `backend/playout/Dockerfile`: added `/app/slate` directory.
+- `handleConnection`: added 30s presence heartbeat + WebSocket ping, banned/muted user checks, env-configurable rate limits (`CHAT_RATE_LIMIT_MAX`, `CHAT_RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_S`).
+- `handleModerationCommand`: added moderator role check, mute duration parsing, Redis key enforcement.
+- `handlePrivateDM`: targeted delivery via `clientMeta` map instead of broadcast.
+- `initRedis`: added `redisReconnectLoop` with exponential backoff (2s→60s).
+- `handleAdminMedia` + chunked upload: normalization validation runs on every upload, sets `needs_normalization` status.
+- nginx: OPTIONS preflight → 204 on all 4 HLS locations. `/health` returns JSON. `/nginx-status` with stub_status (internal-network restricted).
+- CD workflow: health checks now IP-agnostic (`docker exec` instead of hardcoded IP curls).
+- `docker-compose.yml` + `.prod.yml`, `.gitea/workflows/cd.yml`, `DEPLOYMENT.md`, `SETUP.md`, `docs/architecture/README.md`, `README.md`: all annotated with test-lab vs production distinction, `192.168.88.0/24` flagged as internal test network.
+- `docs/architecture/README.md`: CI/CD deployment view updated to note test lab target, production pending.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- CD health check no longer hardcodes `192.168.88.40` in curl targets — uses `docker exec` for portability.
+- Playlist page no longer single-textarea — now shows sortable list with validation warnings.
+- Schedule page shows overrides alongside playlist timeline.
+
+## [1.0.6] - 2026-08-05
+
+### Added
+
+- `GET /api/admin/chat-log` endpoint with `?room=`, `?limit=`, `?before=`, `?username=`, `?text=` filter/pagination support.
+- `GET /api/admin/chat-log/:id` endpoint returning a single chat log entry as JSON.
+- `DELETE /api/admin/chat-log/:id` endpoint returning 204 No Content on success.
+- `DELETE /api/admin/chat-log/bulk` endpoint accepting `{"ids": [...]}` for bulk deletion (max 500).
+- Chat Log admin tab with table, individual delete with confirmation dialog, pagination (prev/next), search/filter by room/username/text, select-all checkbox, and bulk delete button.
+- Added `"lint": "tsc --noEmit"` script to `frontend/package.json`.
+- `/api/admin/media/{id}` GET/PUT/DELETE handlers for media metadata retrieval, updates, and file+record deletion.
+- Resumable chunked admin media upload flow with upload-session endpoints and client progress indicators.
+- Prometheus-format `/metrics` endpoint for chat runtime and admin-session monitoring.
+- Dedicated operational documentation: `API.md`, `DEPLOYMENT.md`, `MONITORING.md`, `SECURITY.md`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Split `frontend/admin/index.html` into a template shell plus 9 per-tab page HTML files loaded dynamically via `loadPageContent` / `switchTab` / `bindPageEvents`.
+- Rebuilt viewer, admin, and admin-login pages around custom semantic class structures with accessibility-focused landmarks, tab semantics, and keyboard-focus behavior.
+- Replaced legacy and Tailwind-based stylesheet rules with a custom design-token CSS system covering responsive layouts, forms, tables, and reduced-motion behavior.
+- Switched frontend theme to dark-mode-first token defaults with light-scheme override.
+- Applied new color palette (`#32292f` dark, `#b4c4ae` light, `#587792` brand, `#2ebfa5` focus, `#04650d` ok) across all 22 CSS custom properties in dark and light themes.
+- Replaced hardcoded admin sidebar and tab-trigger colors with CSS custom properties.
+- Optimized CI pipeline: removed duplicate `docker compose build --no-cache` from test job, removed broken playlist validation step, fixed Go module cache path, added Docker Buildx registry cache to docker/release jobs.
+- Bumped chat healthcheck `start_period` from 10s to 30s in `docker-compose.prod.yml`.
+- CD workflow now verifies nginx (port 8080) + chat (3000) + playout (8081); dumps container logs for all failing services.
+- Updated Prometheus scrape targets and Grafana dashboard queries to use live chat metrics.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Go module cache in CI now correctly references only `backend/chat/go.sum` (playout go.sum did not exist); added `go mod download` step to seed cache.
+- Removed broken playlist validation step (`go run src/playlist.go` without go.mod) from CI test job.
+- Converted nginx CI build from custom shell `docker buildx` to `docker/build-push-action@v5` for cache consistency.
+- Enforced 2GB upload ceiling plus server-side media file type/size validation for admin uploads.
+- Increased nginx `client_max_body_size` to allow resumable admin upload chunks without 413 errors.
+- Removed unused `data-admin-*` Vite env var attributes from admin HTML template.
+- Removed Tailwind and Alpine runtime/build dependencies; eliminated Tailwind directives/warnings during production build.

+## Versioning and Releases
+
+### Version Scheme
+
+Linear Void follows **Semantic Versioning** ([SemVer](https://semver.org)): `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`.
+
+- **MAJOR** — breaking changes to the viewer, API, or deployment model.
+- **MINOR** — new features (endpoints, admin tabs, UI capabilities) that are backward-compatible.
+- **PATCH** — bug fixes, optimizations, documentation polish.
+
+Git tags use no prefix: `1.0.2`, `1.1.0`, `2.0.0`.
+
+### Where Versions Are Declared
+
+| File                    | Token         | Example                   |

+
+### Full Release Procedure
+
+#### Step 1: Bump version numbers
+
+Update these files to the new version (replace `X.Y.Z`):
+
+- [frontend/package.json](frontend/package.json)
+- [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) — add new section at top
+- [README.md](README.md) — version badge
+
+```bash
+# frontend/package.json
+"version": "X.Y.Z"
+
+# CHANGELOG.md — add new section at top
+## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD
+
+# README.md — version badge
+version-X.Y.Z-blue
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Write changelog
+
+Add entries under `## [X.Y.Z]` in `CHANGELOG.md` following [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com) format (`Added`, `Changed`, `Fixed`, `Removed`).
+
+#### Step 3: Commit and tag
+
+```bash
+# Stage all version bumps + changelog
+git add frontend/package.json CHANGELOG.md README.md
+
+# Commit
+git commit -m "chore: bump version to X.Y.Z"
+
+# Create annotated tag
+git tag -a X.Y.Z -m "Release X.Y.Z"
+
+# Push commit and tag
+git push origin main
+git push origin X.Y.Z
+```
+
+#### Step 4: Verify CI/CD
+
+- CI workflow (`ci.yml`) runs on push to `main` → builds & pushes `main`/`latest` images.
+- Release workflow (`release.yml`) triggers on `X.Y.Z` tag → builds images with semver tags (`X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest`), creates Gitea Release.
+- CD workflow (`cd.yml`) triggers after CI completes → deploys to production.
+
+Monitor at: [git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/actions](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/actions)
+
+#### Step 5: Verify release
+
+Check the Gitea Releases page for the new tag:
+[git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/releases](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/releases)
+
+### Manual Release (workflow_dispatch)
+
+If a tag push fails or a re-release is needed:
+
+1. Go to [Actions → Release workflow](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/actions?workflow=release.yml)
+2. Click "Run workflow"
+3. Enter version (e.g. `1.0.2`)
+4. The workflow builds images, pushes semver tags, and creates the Gitea Release
+
+### Docker Image Tags
+
+Every release produces these tags in the Gitea Container Registry:
+
+| Image     | Tags                     |
+| --------- | ------------------------ |
+| `playout` | `X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest` |
+| `chat`    | `X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest` |
+| `nginx`   | `X.Y.Z`, `X.Y`, `latest` |
+
+Example for `1.0.2`:
+
+```text
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/chat:1.0.2
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/chat:1.0
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/chat:latest
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/playout:1.0.2
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/playout:1.0
+git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid/playout:latest
+```
+
+### Moving Completed Tasks
+
+After release, update `CHANGELOG.md` if needed.
+

-### Folder Explanations
+## Project Structure
-
-- **`frontend/`**: The viewer experience — minimal, modern SPA with Tailwind + Alpine.js (or vanilla). Uses `hls.js` for playback and a WebSocket client for chat.
-- **`backend/playout/`**: Core linear engine. FFmpeg consumes a normalized playlist and outputs continuous HLS. Includes normalization validation.
-- **`backend/chat/`**: Independent WebSocket service (Node.js/Socket.io or Go). Handles public rooms, private DMs, presence (Redis), persistence (PostgreSQL/SQLite), rate limiting, and moderation.
-- **`backend/shared/`**: Reusable code (types, utils, video validation).
-- **`infrastructure/`**: Everything needed to deploy and configure the stack (Docker, Nginx, Cloudflare rules, future Terraform).
-- **`scripts/`**: One-off and CI-friendly scripts for video preparation, R2 sync, backups, and playlist management.
-- **`monitoring/`**: Grafana dashboards, Prometheus rules, logging configuration.
-- **`docs/architecture/`**: Complete arc42 documentation + ADRs 001-007 (the single source of truth for all architectural decisions).
 
 This structure directly reflects the building blocks, runtime flows, deployment view, and cross-cutting concepts defined in the arc42 documentation.

+
+### Scripts
+
+One-off and CI-friendly scripts for video preparation, R2 sync, backups, and playlist management.
+
+- loadtest/
+  - [admin-api.js](scripts/loadtest/admin-api.js) — admin API load test script

 ## Getting Started
 
+> **Note:** The `docker compose up` below targets local development. The test lab (192.168.88.40) receives automated CD deploys. Production Hetzner VPS is not yet provisioned — see `DEPLOYMENT.md`.
+
 ```bash
 git clone https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid.git
 cd linearvoid
 cp .env.example .env
+# Edit .env with your R2 credentials and domain settings
 docker compose up --build
 ```
 
+Then open:
+
+- **Viewer**: [https://linearvoid.tv](https://linearvoid.tv) (or `http://localhost`)
+- **Admin**: [https://linearvoid.tv/admin](https://linearvoid.tv/admin) (or `http://localhost/admin`)

 ## Development
 
 - Use Docker Compose for local development (playout + chat + frontend).
+- Test lab host: `192.168.88.40` (internal network, receives CD deploys). Production Hetzner VPS TBD.
 - Public production host model: `https://linearvoid.tv` for viewer/admin/chat and `https://media.linearvoid.tv` for HLS delivery.
 - Normalize all source videos before adding to playlist (see ADR-001 for exact codec/fps/keyframe requirements).
 - Monitor cache hit ratio and R2 operations closely — they determine real cost.

+| ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Playout not starting** | Verify playlist exists in `data/playlist/playlist.txt` and media files are accessible |
+| **HLS not playing**      | Check `docker compose logs playout` for ffmpeg errors; verify `data/hls/` permissions |
+| **Chat not connecting**  | Ensure Redis is running: `docker compose logs redis`; check `DATABASE_URL`            |
+| **Admin panel 401**      | Verify `ADMIN_USERNAME`/`ADMIN_PASSWORD` in `.env` match login credentials            |
+| **Docker build fails**   | Run `docker compose build --no-cache`; check `backend/playout/.dockerignore`          |
+| **R2 upload failures**   | Verify `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`; check bucket CORS settings      |

+## Contributing
+
+Contributions are welcome! See [`CONTRIBUTING.md`](CONTRIBUTING.md) for guidelines. Quick overview:
+
+1. Read the [architecture docs](docs/architecture/README.md) and ADRs first.
+2. Code against the defined module structure (frontend, backend/playout, backend/chat, infrastructure, scripts, monitoring).
+3. Open PRs on [Gitea](https://git.allucanget.biz/zwitschi/linearvoid).
+4. CI validates builds and tests automatically.
+
+Since this is a linear project, we also rely on a linear development and release model: only `main` branch is used for releases, and all features are merged into `main` after review and CI validation. Releases use semantic version tags in `*.*.*` format (for example `1.0.9`) and are automatically built/pushed to the container registry. Version numbers are declared in `frontend/package.json`, `CHANGELOG.md`, and the version badge in this README.

+- WebSocket endpoint: <wss://linearvoid.tv/ws>
+- Local fallback: <http://localhost> and <ws://localhost/ws>
+
+## Authentication Model
+
+Admin REST endpoints use a cookie session.
+
+- Cookie name: linearvoid_admin_session
+- Cookie attributes: HttpOnly, SameSite=Strict, Secure when request is HTTPS (or X-Forwarded-Proto=https)
+- Session TTL: controlled by ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS (default 12h)

+## Environments
+
+Linear Void runs in two separate environments:
+
+| Environment    | Host                       | Docker Target              | Purpose                                        |
+| -------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
+| **Test Lab**   | `192.168.88.40` (internal) | `tcp://192.168.88.40:2375` | Integration testing, staging, CI/CD validation |
+| **Production** | Hetzner VPS (TBD)          | `tcp://<hetzner-ip>:2375`  | Public linearvoid.tv serving real viewers      |
+
+**Current state (2026-08-06):** Test lab is active and receives automated CD deploys. Production Hetzner VPS is **not yet provisioned**. The CD workflow (`cd.yml`) and `docker-compose.prod.yml` currently target the test lab. Switching to production requires only changing `DOCKER_HOST` — see [Production Deployment](#production-target-hetzner) below.
+
+## Production Target (Hetzner)
+
+**Status: Not provisioned.** The production deployment plan is documented and the pipeline is ready — only the VPS needs to be created.
+
+### Planned Infrastructure
+
+| Resource       | Spec                                             |
+| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
+| Provider       | Hetzner Cloud                                    |
+| Region         | Ashburn, VA (us-east)                            |
+| Instance       | CX22 (2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, 40 GB SSD) or equivalent |
+| OS             | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS or Debian 12                    |
+| Bandwidth      | 20 TB included traffic/month                     |
+| Estimated cost | ~€7–10/month base                                |
+
+### Cutover Plan
+
+1. Provision Hetzner VPS (see [Production Deployment](#production-target-hetzner) section)
+2. Add production secrets to Gitea (`CI_PROD_*` prefix)
+3. Update `DOCKER_HOST` in CD workflow to Hetzner public IP
+4. Trigger deploy → validate health checks
+5. Update Cloudflare A record `linearvoid.tv` → Hetzner IP
+6. Enable HTTPS, WAF, cache rules on production zone
+7. Decommission test lab as public target
+
+### Production Preflight
+
+Before the cutover in the plan above, treat the following as the minimum readiness gate:
+
+1. Verify the Hetzner host is reachable over SSH and Docker remote API TLS is working for the Gitea runner.
+2. Confirm all required production secrets are present under the `CI_PROD_*` prefix.
+3. Confirm `linearvoid.tv`, `www.linearvoid.tv`, and `media.linearvoid.tv` DNS targets are correct for the intended phase.
+4. Complete the manual Cloudflare/UptimeRobot checklist and attach evidence in [Cloudflare Uptimerobot checklist](../docs/operations/cloudflare-uptimerobot-checklist.md).
+5. Run the production smoke path end to end: viewer SPA, HLS playback, chat connect, admin login, upload, playlist save, and playout health.
+6. Verify rollback is still possible before the final DNS switch.
+
+Readiness is not complete until the checklist above and the manual evidence tracker are both satisfied.
+
+### Firewall / Security Group
+
+| Port | Source                | Purpose                        |
+| ---- | --------------------- | ------------------------------ |
+| 22   | Admin IPs             | SSH management                 |
+| 80   | 0.0.0.0/0             | HTTP (redirect to HTTPS)       |
+| 443  | 0.0.0.0/0             | HTTPS (nginx)                  |
+| 2375 | Gitea runner IP only  | Docker remote API (TLS)        |
+| 9090 | Admin IPs or internal | Prometheus (or tunnel via SSH) |
+| 3001 | Admin IPs or internal | Grafana (or tunnel via SSH)    |
+
+### Pipeline Readiness
+
+Three Gitea Actions workflows drive the full pipeline:
+
+| Workflow           | Trigger          | Purpose                                                                                  |
+| ------------------ | ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `ci.yml`           | Push to `main`   | Lint, build frontend, vet Go, build & push Docker images (`:latest`, `:main`)            |
+| `cd.yml`           | Push to `main`   | Deploy to test lab (`192.168.88.40:2375`) — runs **in parallel** with CI                 |
+| `release.yml`      | Tag push `*.*.*` | Build & push versioned Docker images (`:X.Y.Z`, `:X.Y`, `:latest`), create Gitea Release |
+| `pages-deploy.yml` | Push to `main`   | Deploy frontend to Cloudflare Pages (see `docs/operations/gitea-cloudflare-pages.md`)    |
+
+CI and CD run simultaneously on every push to `main`. The deploy pulls whatever `:latest` images are available in the registry at that moment.
+
+The CD workflow (`cd.yml`) uses `DOCKER_HOST` to target the deployment host. To switch targets:
+
+```bash
+# Test lab (current)
+DOCKER_HOST=tcp://192.168.88.40:2375
+
+# Production (when provisioned)
+DOCKER_HOST=tcp://<hetzner-public-ip>:2375
+```
+
+No code changes needed in the pipeline. See `DEPLOYMENT.md` Production Deployment section for full checklist.
+
+## Target Topology
+
+- Host: Linux server with Docker Engine
+- Reverse proxy: nginx container (linearvoid-nginx)
+- Core services: playout, chat, redis, postgres
+- Observability: prometheus, grafana
+- CDN/edge: Cloudflare
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Docker Engine + Docker Compose plugin
+- Network access to git.allucanget.biz
+- A valid .env file with production values
+- DNS configured for linearvoid.tv (and media.linearvoid.tv if split media domain is used)
+
+## Environment File
+
+Use `.env` with at least:
+
+- `DATABASE_URL` — PostgreSQL connection string
+- `REDIS_URL` — Redis connection string
+- `ADMIN_USERNAME` / `ADMIN_PASSWORD` — admin dashboard credentials
+- `ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS` — session expiry (default 12)
+- `VITE_PUBLIC_APP_URL` / `VITE_PUBLIC_WS_URL` / `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL` — frontend URLs
+
+**Cloudflare R2 (required for HLS segment sync to edge):**
+
+- `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID` / `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` — R2 write credentials
+- `R2_BUCKET_NAME` — bucket name (e.g. `linearvoid-media`)
+- `R2_ENDPOINT` — S3-compatible endpoint URL
+- `R2_REGION` — set to `auto`
+
+**Cloudflare (optional, for Workers/Pages):**
+
+- `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN` / `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID`
+- `MEDIA_DOMAIN` — split media domain (e.g. `media.linearvoid.tv`)
+
+See `.env.example` and `SETUP.md` for full variable reference.
+
+### Gitea Secrets
+
+The CD workflow (`cd.yml`) injects sensitive values from Gitea secrets into the `.env` file at deploy time. The following secrets must be configured in the Gitea repository:
+
+| Secret Name               | Description                          |
+| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
+| `DATABASE_URL`            | PostgreSQL connection string         |
+| `ADMIN_USERNAME`          | Admin dashboard username             |
+| `ADMIN_PASSWORD`          | Admin dashboard password             |
+| `R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID`        | Cloudflare R2 access key             |
+| `R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`    | Cloudflare R2 secret key             |
+| `R2_BUCKET_NAME`          | R2 bucket name                       |
+| `R2_ENDPOINT`             | R2 S3-compatible endpoint URL        |
+| `R2_ADMIN_ACCESS_KEY_ID`  | R2 admin access key (optional)       |
+| `R2_ADMIN_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` | R2 admin secret key (optional)    |
+| `R2_ADMIN_ENDPOINT`       | R2 admin endpoint (optional)         |
+| `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN`    | Cloudflare API token (optional)      |
+| `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID`   | Cloudflare account ID (optional)     |
+| `CI_REGISTRY_USER`        | Gitea container registry username    |
+| `CI_REGISTRY_TOKEN`       | Gitea container registry token       |
+
+## Pull-and-Run Deployment
+
+Images are built and pushed automatically by the CI and release workflows (see [CONTRIBUTING.md](../CONTRIBUTING.md#versioning-and-releases) for the release procedure).
+
+Every push to `main` triggers CI (builds `:main` and `:latest` tags) and CD (deploys `:latest` to test lab) in parallel. Semantic version tags (`*.*.*`, e.g. `1.0.9`) trigger the release workflow which builds `:X.Y.Z`, `:X.Y`, and `:latest` tags and creates a Gitea Release.
+
+From repository root:
+
+```bash
+docker login git.allucanget.biz
+
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --remove-orphans
+```
+
+## First-Time or Recovery Provisioning
+
+1. Ensure host paths exist:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p data/chat data/playlist data/media data/hls
+```
+
+1. Confirm volumes and networks:
+
+```bash
+docker volume ls
+docker network ls
+```
+
+1. Start stack:
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
+```

+After startup, check service status:
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml ps
+```
+
+Endpoint checks:
+
+- App: <http://{host}:8080/>
+- Nginx health: <http://{host}:8080/health>
+- Chat health: <http://{host}:3000/health>
+- Playout health: <http://{host}:8081/health>
+- Prometheus: <http://{host}:9090>
+- Grafana: <http://{host}:3001>
+
+Domain checks:
+
+- <https://linearvoid.tv>
+- <https://linearvoid.tv/admin>
+- <https://linearvoid.tv/metrics>
+
+## Zero/Low-Downtime Update Pattern
+
+1. Pull newest images.
+1. Recreate changed services only:
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
+
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d nginx chat playout
+```
+
+1. Re-run health checks.
+
+## Rollback
+
+If new images are unhealthy:
+
+1. Pin previous tags in docker-compose.prod.yml.
+2. Pull pinned tags.
+3. Restart impacted services.
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml pull
+
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d nginx chat playout
+```
+
+## Operational Tasks
+
+### View logs
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -f nginx chat playout
+```
+
+### Restart one service
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml restart chat
+```
+
+### Stop stack
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down
+```
+
+### Keep volumes (recommended) vs remove volumes (destructive)
+
+```bash
+# keep data
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down
+
+# destructive (remove data)
+docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down -v
+```
+
+## Nginx and Proxy Considerations
+
+- If an external proxy (for example Nginx Proxy Manager) fronts the stack, align request body limits with internal nginx, see [nginx.conf](../infrastructure/nginx/nginx.conf).
+- For resumable admin uploads, ensure client_max_body_size supports chunk requests in both proxy layers.
+
+## Security Baseline
+
+- Use strong ADMIN_PASSWORD and rotate regularly.
+- Keep Docker host access restricted.
+- Prefer HTTPS/WSS through Cloudflare.
+- Restrict exposed ports if only proxy access is needed.
+
+## Common Deployment Pitfalls
+
+- Missing frontend build artifacts in local-only compose workflows.
+- Wrong registry credentials or missing login.
+- Misaligned domain env vars (app/ws/hls) causing mixed-origin errors.
+

+| Service not starting       | `docker logs linearvoid-<svc> --tail 50`      | Check `.env` vars, volume mounts, port conflicts              |
+| Playout stall / slate mode | `curl http://<host>:8081/health` — mode=slate | Check playlist file, media paths, disk space                  |
+| Chat not connecting        | `curl http://<host>:3000/health`              | Check Redis: `docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli ping`    |
+| Admin 401 loop             | Cookie not sent                               | Verify `X-Forwarded-Proto: https`, nginx auth_request headers |
+| Upload fails (413)         | File too large                                | Check nginx `client_max_body_size` (should be 64m+)           |
+| HLS not playing            | `curl http://<host>/hls/playlist.m3u8`        | Check playout health, HLS dir permissions                     |
+| Prometheus no targets      | `curl http://<host>:9090/targets`             | Verify container network, scrape config                       |
+| Grafana no data            | Check datasource                              | Verify Prometheus URL `http://prometheus:9090` provisioned    |
+
+- Proxy-layer body size limits returning 413 on upload.
+- Health checks failing before service warmup is complete.

+
+## Access
+
+- Prometheus: `http://<host>:9090` (targets, graph, alerts)
+- Grafana: `http://<host>:3001` (default: admin/admin, change via `GRAFANA_PASSWORD`)
+
+## Dashboards
+
+- **Linear Void app**: `monitoring/grafana/dashboard.json` — clients, messages, moderation, Redis, sessions, scrape health
+- **Prometheus ops**: `monitoring/grafana/dashboards/dashboard.json` — TSDB, CPU/memory, WAL, compactions, query latency
+
+## Metrics checking
+
+See detailed scripts for querying Prometheus scrape targets:
+
+- [Linux/macOS](./infrastructure/monitoring/prometheus_curl.md)
+- [Windows](./infrastructure/monitoring/prometheus_curl_win.md)
+
+## Key Metrics
+
+- `linearvoid_chat_connected_clients` — active WebSocket connections
+- `linearvoid_chat_messages_total` — total stored messages
+- `linearvoid_chat_dms_total` — private messages sent
+- `linearvoid_chat_redis_up` — Redis reachable (0/1)
+- `linearvoid_playout_restarts_total` — FFmpeg restart counter
+- `linearvoid_playout_mode` — 0=live, 1=slate, 2=degraded
+- `linearvoid_chat_admin_sessions_active` — active admin logins
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom                 | Check                                                                |
+| ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| No chat metrics         | `curl http://chat:3000/metrics` from Prometheus container            |
+| No exporter metrics     | Verify exporter containers running: `docker ps \| grep exporter`     |
+| Grafana no data         | Datasource URL must be `http://prometheus:9090`                      |
+| Prometheus targets down | Check container network: all must be on `linearvoid-net`             |
+| Alert not firing        | Check Prometheus → Alerts tab, verify `rule_files` in prometheus.yml |
+
+### Grafana shows no data
+
+- Ensure datasource points to <http://prometheus:9090>.
+- Confirm Prometheus is healthy.
+- Check dashboard query labels match active jobs.
+
+### High cardinality or query slowness
+
+- Reduce unneeded labels.
+- Limit expensive dashboard panels.
+- Tune retention and query windows.
+
+## Operational Recommendations
+
+- Keep alert thresholds tied to actual user impact.
+- Review dashboards after each release that changes endpoints or metrics names.
+- Periodically test alert routing and incident response flow.

+```
+
+## Authentication & Sessions
+
+- Login: `POST /api/admin/login` → cookie `linearvoid_admin_session`
+- Cookie flags: `HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Strict`, `Secure` (over HTTPS)
+- Server-side expiry via `ADMIN_SESSION_TTL_HOURS`
+- Rate limit: 5 attempts/IP/5min via Redis
+
+## Transport Security (TLS/HSTS)
+
+- Cloudflare TLS mode: **Full (strict)** — valid origin cert required
+- nginx listens on 80 internally; Cloudflare handles TLS termination
+- HSTS header set by Cloudflare: `max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload`
+- WSS upgrade path: `/ws` through nginx → chat:3000
+
+## Network Isolation
+
+- All backend services on internal Docker network (`linearvoid-net`)
+- Only nginx port exposed to host (443/80)
+- Database, Redis, exporters inaccessible from outside
+- `docker-compose.prod.yml` keeps ports internal via `expose:` not `ports:`
+
+## Reverse Proxy Controls
+
+- `auth_request /api/admin/auth` gate on all `/admin` and `/api/admin` paths
+- Explicit `client_max_body_size 64m` for resumable upload chunks
+- WebSocket upgrade headers: `Upgrade`, `Connection` preserved
+- CORS headers on HLS: `Access-Control-Allow-Origin *`
+- XSS protection: CSP headers served by Cloudflare
+
+## Rate Limiting
+
+| Resource          | Limit | Window |
+| ----------------- | ----- | ------ |
+| WebSocket connect | 5/IP  | 60s    |
+| Chat messages     | 10/IP | 10s    |
+| Admin login       | 5/IP  | 5min   |
+
+Implemented via Redis `INCR` + `EXPIRE`.
+
+## Secrets Management
+
+- `.env` — local dev only, **gitignored**
+- Gitea Actions secrets (`CI_*` prefix) for CI/CD
+- Never commit: passwords, tokens, API keys, R2 credentials
+- Production `.env` provisioned manually on host, never checked in
+- Rotate admin password quarterly
+
+## Data Protection
+
+- PostgreSQL: chat history, moderation logs, media metadata
+- Redis: append-only persistence for presence, rate limits, sessions
+- HLS segments: ephemeral, regenerated by playout
+- Backups: `scripts/backup-db.sh` (daily), `scripts/backup-weekly.sh`, `scripts/verify-backups.sh`
+
+## Hardening Checklist
+
+- [ ] HTTPS/WSS enforced end-to-end (Cloudflare Full strict)
+- [ ] Strong admin credentials configured
+- [ ] Secrets only in env/secrets stores (never committed)
+- [ ] Proxy auth and websocket headers validated
+- [ ] Upload limits and MIME validation active
+- [ ] Rate limiting active (WS, messages, login)
+- [ ] Cloudflare WAF/rate-limit rules active
+- [ ] Backup/restore drills completed
+- [ ] Security alerts routed (Prometheus alertmanager)
+
+## Incident Response
+
+1. Detect — alerts (ChatDown, RedisDown, HighChatLatency) or user reports
+2. Triage — edge (Cloudflare), proxy (nginx), app (chat/playout), data (Redis/Postgres)
+3. Contain — rate limit, credential rotate, service restart, slate mode activation
+4. Recover — verify health endpoints, check Prometheus targets, validate HLS output
+5. Record — timeline + corrective actions in `docs/incident-runbook.md`

+Execution tracker: `docs/operations/cloudflare-uptimerobot-checklist.md`.
+
+### 1. DNS Setup
+
+1. Add apex record for `linearvoid.tv` pointing to Cloudflare Pages target.
+2. Add `www` CNAME to Cloudflare Pages and configure redirect to `https://linearvoid.tv`.
+3. Add `media.linearvoid.tv` for split-domain HLS delivery.
+4. Keep all records proxied (orange cloud) unless troubleshooting requires DNS-only mode.
+
+### 2. R2 Bucket
+
+1. Create bucket `linearvoid-media`.
+2. Set location hint to `enam` (US-East).
+3. Attach custom domain `media.linearvoid.tv` to the bucket.
+4. Verify object read works from the custom domain.
+
+### 3. Cache Rules
+
+Configure Cloudflare Cache Rules:
+
+1. HLS segment files (`*.ts`, `*.m4s`):
+   - Cache: eligible
+   - Edge TTL: `31536000`
+   - Browser TTL: long-lived
+   - Cache key: include full path
+2. HLS manifests (`*.m3u8`):
+   - Cache: eligible
+   - Edge TTL: `2s`
+   - Revalidation: enabled
+3. Static assets (`*.js`, `*.css`):
+   - Cache: eligible
+   - Edge TTL: `1y`
+   - Browser TTL: long-lived
+   - Cache key: include full path
+4. Validate behavior using response headers:
+   - `Cf-Cache-Status` should move from `MISS` to `HIT` for hot objects
+
+Reference: [cache-rules](../docs/infrastructure/cloudflare/cache-rules.md).
+
+### 4. Cloudflare Pages
+
+Also see [the automated Gitea Actions deployment guide](./operations/gitea-cloudflare-pages.md).
+
+Manual setup:
+
+1. Connect Gitea repository to Cloudflare Pages.
+2. Build command:
+
+   ```bash
+   cd frontend && npm run build
+   ```
+
+3. Output directory:
+
+   ```text
+   frontend/dist
+   ```
+
+4. Configure production domain to `linearvoid.tv`.
+
+### 5. Tiered Cache
+
+1. Enable Smart Tiered Cache in Cloudflare dashboard.
+2. Warm a segment and manifest path.
+3. Confirm tiered behavior through repeated requests and `Cf-Cache-Status: HIT`.
+
+### 6. WAF and Bot Protection
+
+1. Enable OWASP Managed Ruleset.
+2. Start in `Simulate` mode.
+3. Review events for 48 hours.
+4. Switch to `Block` once false positives are addressed.
+5. Enable Bot Fight Mode.
+
+### 7. Rate Limiting
+
+Create rules:
+
+1. Path: `/api/admin/login`
+2. Path: `/api/admin/*`
+3. Threshold: `10 requests / 10 seconds / IP`
+4. Action: `Managed Challenge`
+
+### 8. HTTPS and WSS
+
+1. Enable `Always Use HTTPS`.
+2. Enable HSTS with:
+   - `max-age=31536000`
+   - `includeSubDomains`
+   - `preload`
+3. Minimum TLS version: `1.2`.
+4. Keep SSL mode at `Full (strict)` when origin certs are valid.
+5. Enforce HTTPS redirect at both layers:
+   - Cloudflare edge
+   - nginx origin
+6. Validate websocket endpoint uses `wss://linearvoid.tv/ws`.
+
+### 9. UptimeRobot Monitors
+
+Create external monitors:
+
+1. HTTP monitor:
+   - URL: `https://linearvoid.tv/health`
+   - Interval: 5 minutes
+2. Keyword monitor:
+   - URL: `https://linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8`
+   - Keyword: `#EXTM3U`
+   - Interval: 5 minutes
+3. Alert policy:
+   - Trigger on 2 consecutive failures
+   - Notify via email and Discord/Slack webhook
+
+### 10. Verification Checklist
+
+1. DNS resolves for `linearvoid.tv`, `www.linearvoid.tv`, and `media.linearvoid.tv`.
+2. Pages serves frontend for apex and `www` redirects correctly.
+3. HLS segments are cacheable long-term, manifests refresh every ~2s.
+4. Admin paths are rate-limited and WAF events are visible.
+5. HTTPS and WSS both succeed with valid certificates.
+6. UptimeRobot alerts fire as expected when endpoints are intentionally made unavailable.

+# Streaming Pipeline
+
+This document is the operational contract for Linear Void video ingest, playout, publication, caching, and browser playback. General deployment, chat, and admin details remain in `DEPLOYMENT.md`, `SETUP.md`, and `API.md`.
+
+## Production flow
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A["Normalized MP4 assets"] --> B["Playlist and schedule"]
+    B --> C["Playout service and FFmpeg"]
+    C --> D["Local HLS staging"]
+    D --> E["R2 object storage"]
+    E --> F["Cloudflare edge"]
+    F --> G["hls.js or native HLS"]
+```
+
+The playout service is the timeline authority. It reads the ordered playlist, runs FFmpeg continuously, stages a live HLS window under `data/hls/`, and publishes complete objects to R2. Viewers read only the public R2 custom domain through Cloudflare:
+
+```text
+https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8
+```
+
+Nginx `/hls/` is a local/test fallback, not the production media origin. The SPA, admin API, and chat use `linearvoid.tv`; media uses `media.linearvoid.tv`.
+
+## Source-media contract
+
+Only validated files may enter the production playlist.
+
+| Property   | Required profile                                                         |
+| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| Container  | MP4                                                                      |
+| Video      | H.264/AVC, `yuv420p`                                                     |
+| Resolution | 1280x720 or 1920x1080; avoid changing resolution within a playlist block |
+| Frame rate | Constant 30 fps                                                          |
+| GOP        | Closed, fixed 2 seconds: `-g 60 -keyint_min 60 -sc_threshold 0`          |
+| Audio      | AAC-LC, stereo, 48 kHz, 128–192 kbit/s                                   |
+
+The ingest gate uses `ffprobe` to reject incompatible codecs, variable frame rate, missing audio, invalid dimensions, or incorrect keyframe cadence. Assets are immutable after acceptance; corrections create a new asset ID and object key.
+
+Reference normalization:
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -i input.mov \
+  -c:v libx264 -preset medium -crf 21 \
+  -r 30 -g 60 -keyint_min 60 -sc_threshold 0 \
+  -pix_fmt yuv420p \
+  -c:a aac -b:a 160k -ar 48000 -ac 2 \
+  -movflags +faststart \
+  output-normalized.mp4
+```
+
+## Playlist and timeline
+
+- `data/playlist/playlist.txt` contains one local media path per line; blank lines and `#` comments are ignored.
+- The service validates the complete playlist before activating a revision.
+- Playlist edits are written atomically and receive a revision ID. The active FFmpeg run keeps its current item and adopts the new revision at the next item boundary.
+- All viewers follow the same live manifest; clients do not calculate the schedule independently.
+- Schedule metadata must be derived from the same active playlist revision and timeline so “now/next” agrees with the video.
+- When the last item ends, playout returns to the first item unless an active schedule override says otherwise.
+
+## Playout and HLS packaging
+
+The playout service wraps FFmpeg, tracks the active item and playlist revision, restarts failed processes, and exposes `/health` plus Prometheus metrics.
+
+Baseline packaging:
+
+| Setting          | Value                                                                                 |
+| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Protocol         | Standard live HLS, not LL-HLS                                                         |
+| Segment format   | fMP4 (`.m4s`) with an initialization segment; `.ts` may be supported during migration |
+| Segment target   | 6 seconds (`HLS_SEGMENT_DURATION=6`)                                                  |
+| Live window      | 24 segments (`HLS_WINDOW_SIZE=24`), about 144 seconds                                 |
+| Codec path       | Stream copy for conforming assets; no per-viewer transcoding                          |
+| Expected latency | 15–35 seconds                                                                         |
+
+Segment boundaries must align with keyframes. Timestamps must remain monotonic across item boundaries. If FFmpeg cannot preserve a seamless timeline, insert `#EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY` and publish the corresponding new initialization segment.
+
+Every segment name is globally unique and never reused, including after a restart or playlist loop. Use a run/session ID plus a monotonically increasing media sequence, for example:
+
+```text
+hls/r-20260807T170412Z/init-000001.mp4
+hls/r-20260807T170412Z/seg-000001234.m4s
+```
+
+This naming rule is essential: a URL advertised as immutable must never later contain different bytes.
+
+## Safe publication to R2
+
+Publication order prevents a manifest from referencing an unavailable segment:
+
+1. FFmpeg writes a segment to a temporary local name and closes it.
+2. The publisher uploads the initialization segment, if new, and media segment to their final immutable R2 keys.
+3. It verifies successful upload and records object size/checksum.
+4. It renders the next media manifest referencing only confirmed objects.
+5. It uploads the manifest to a temporary key, then replaces `hls/playlist.m3u8` as the final commit step.
+
+Never upload an actively written segment or publish the manifest first. Use a single publisher instance, or fencing/leader election, so two playout workers cannot update the live manifest concurrently.
+
+The local `data/hls/` directory is staging data and may be regenerated. Source media, playlist revisions, and schedule state are authoritative; generated HLS is not backed up as application state.
+
+## Cache contract
+
+| Objects                    | Edge policy                        | Browser policy                          | Required headers/behavior                                                    |
+| -------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `.m4s`, `.ts`, init `.mp4` | Cache eligible; TTL 1 year         | TTL 1 year                              | `Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable`; full path in cache key |
+| Live `.m3u8`               | Cache eligible; edge TTL 2 seconds | Do not retain beyond freshness interval | `Cache-Control: public, max-age=1, s-maxage=2, must-revalidate`              |
+| Versioned JS/CSS           | Cache eligible; TTL 1 year         | TTL 1 year                              | Content-hashed filenames and `immutable`                                     |
+
+Further rules:
+
+- Do not add query-string cache busters to segment URLs; uniqueness belongs in the path.
+- Cache keys must preserve hostname and full path. Ignore only explicitly approved tracking parameters.
+- HLS responses require `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://linearvoid.tv` (or the reviewed origin allowlist), `GET`, `HEAD`, and `OPTIONS` support, and correct MIME types.
+- Enable Smart Tiered Cache for `media.linearvoid.tv` to reduce R2 reads on regional misses.
+- Purge manifests when necessary, but never purge immutable segments during normal operation.
+- Retain expired-window segments in R2 for at least the maximum manifest TTL plus client retry/grace time. A practical minimum is one hour; lifecycle deletion may run later according to storage policy.
+
+Expected validation:
+
+```bash
+curl -I https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8
+curl -I https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/<segment>.m4s
+```
+
+The manifest must refresh within a few seconds. Repeated segment requests should progress from `CF-Cache-Status: MISS` to `HIT`, retain the same ETag/content length, and carry the immutable cache header.
+
+## Player behavior
+
+The SPA uses native HLS where supported and hls.js elsewhere.
+
+- Start at the live edge with a conservative buffer; do not seek to playlist start.
+- Treat the manifest as the synchronization source and target roughly three segments behind the newest segment unless testing supports a smaller margin.
+- Recover transient network/media errors with bounded retries and exponential backoff.
+- On a fatal hls.js network error, reload the manifest; on a fatal media error, attempt media recovery once before recreating the player.
+- When tab suspension or drift leaves playback materially behind the target live position, seek forward to the target rather than playing the backlog.
+- Surface a clear reconnecting state. Never silently loop stale media.
+- Schedule/chat timestamps should account for the measured player latency rather than assuming wall-clock playout is already visible.
+
+## Failure and recovery
+
+The service retries an item failure with a bounded backoff. After the configured failure threshold it switches to a pre-normalized looping slate and reports `mode=slate`. It periodically retries normal playout and returns only after a segment and committed manifest have been published successfully.
+
+On process or host restart:
+
+- create a new run/session ID and continue with globally unique segment paths;
+- resume from the schedule-derived current position when reliable state exists, otherwise start the current playlist item;
+- never overwrite old segment objects;
+- keep the last valid manifest available until the replacement stream is playable;
+- emit a discontinuity when timeline continuity cannot be guaranteed.
+
+Health is not merely “process running.” `/health` should report at least mode (`live`, `slate`, `starting`, `degraded`), active item, playlist revision, run ID, last segment sequence/time, last successful R2 publication, consecutive failures, and uptime. Mark the service unhealthy if the manifest or media sequence has not advanced for more than two segment durations.
+
+## Monitoring and acceptance checks
+
+Monitor and alert on:
+
+- manifest age and media-sequence advancement;
+- time since last successfully published segment;
+- FFmpeg restarts and consecutive item failures;
+- live/slate mode;
+- R2 upload latency and errors;
+- segment 404/5xx rate and manifest/segment request latency;
+- Cloudflare cache-hit ratio, origin requests, and R2 Class B operations;
+- player startup time, fatal errors, rebuffer ratio, and live-edge drift;
+- local staging disk usage.
+
+A release is streaming-ready only when one full playlist boundary has played without timestamp errors, the manifest never references a missing object, a second viewer joins the same timeline, cache headers match the table above, a forced FFmpeg failure activates the slate, and normal playout recovers without reusing an object URL.

+
+Production values are `MEDIA_DOMAIN=media.linearvoid.tv` and `VITE_PUBLIC_HLS_URL=https://media.linearvoid.tv/hls/playlist.m3u8`. Local fallback may use `http://localhost/hls/playlist.m3u8`.
+
+## Explicitly deferred
+
+Adaptive-bitrate ladders, LL-HLS, DVR/catch-up, multi-origin playout, and regional chat affinity are outside the v1 contract. Adding any of them requires an ADR and an update to this document.

+#### Playout Service (`backend/playout/src/playlist.go`)
+
+- **Role**: Continuous HLS encoding loop using FFmpeg concat demuxer
+- **Input**: `data/playlist/playlist.txt` — ordered list of MP4 file paths
+- **Output**: HLS segments (`.m4s` and `.ts`) + live manifest (`.m3u8`) written to `data/hls/`, mirrored to R2
+- **Resilience**: Restart counter (>5/60s → activate slate), Prometheus metrics on port 8081
+- **Validation**: ffprobe gate on all ingested files (codec, fps, resolution, keyframe interval)
+
+#### Chat Service (`backend/chat/src/main.go`)
+
+- **Role**: WebSocket chat with rooms, DMs, moderation, admin API
+- **Persistence**: PostgreSQL 15 via GORM (messages, moderation logs, media metadata). SQLite for dev fallback
+- **Redis**: Presence tracking, rate limiting, pub/sub for multi-instance fan-out
+- **Auth**: Session-cookie admin auth with Redis-backed expiry
+- **Metrics**: Connected clients, stored messages, DMs, moderation actions on `/metrics`
+
+#### Frontend SPA (`frontend/`)
+
+- **Viewer**: `src/main.ts` — hls.js player, WebSocket chat, presence indicators, schedule overlay
+- **Admin**: `src/admin.ts` — 9 dynamic tabs (dashboard, upload, playlist, schedule, moderation, chat-log, users, analytics, system)
+- **Build**: Vite → static output in `frontend/dist/`
+
+#### Reverse Proxy (`infrastructure/nginx/nginx.conf`)
+
+- auth_request gate on `/admin` and `/api/admin`
+- WebSocket upgrade for `/ws`
+- HLS CORS headers + OPTIONS preflight
+- `/health` JSON endpoint, `/nginx-status` stub_status

 ### CI/CD Pipeline Architecture
 
-The deployment follows a two-stage pipeline: **CI builds and pushes images**, then **CD pulls and deploys** them to the production host.
+The deployment uses parallel workflows on each push to `main`: **CI builds and pushes images** while **CD deploys latest images** to the test lab. A dedicated release workflow handles semantic version tags. Current runtime target is the **test lab** (192.168.88.40). Production Hetzner VPS is planned but not yet provisioned — the same pipeline will deploy there by changing `DOCKER_HOST`.

-Alert on no new segment (>30–60s), low cache hits, high R2 ops, WebSocket errors. Maintain emergency slate, auto-restart, weekly backups, incident runbook.
+Linear Void uses a two-layer monitoring model:
+
+1. **Application layer (chat + platform health)** via Prometheus metrics and a lightweight Grafana dashboard.
+2. **Infrastructure/runtime layer (Prometheus self-observability, TSDB, query engine, Go runtime)** via a detailed Grafana dashboard.
+
+#### Prometheus Baseline
+
+- Config file: `monitoring/prometheus/prometheus.yml`
+- Default scrape interval: `15s`
+- Current scrape jobs (7 total):
+  - `chat` -> `chat:3000`
+  - `playout` -> `playout:8081`
+  - `nginx` -> `nginx-exporter:9113`
+  - `redis` -> `redis-exporter:9121`
+  - `postgres` -> `postgres-exporter:9187`
+  - `node` -> `node-exporter:9100`
+  - `prometheus` -> `localhost:9090`
+
+#### Grafana Dashboards
+
+- `monitoring/grafana/dashboard.json` (Linear Void app metrics: connected clients, messages, moderation actions, Redis reachability, admin sessions, scrape health).
+- `monitoring/grafana/dashboards/dashboard.json` (Prometheus operational visibility: status, uptime, CPU/memory, TSDB ingestion/churn/errors, HTTP latencies, query load, GC/scheduler).
+
+Use the app dashboard for service-level behavior and the Prometheus overview dashboard for platform diagnostics and capacity planning.
+
+#### Alerting Rules (Prometheus Rule Groups)
+
+Rules are implemented in `monitoring/prometheus/alerts.yml` and loaded via `rule_files` from `prometheus.yml`.
+
+Current rule set (8):
+
+- `ChatDown`
+- `PlayoutDown`
+- `RedisDown`
+- `PlayoutSlateActive`
+- `HighChatLatency`
+- `PrometheusWALFailing`
+- `HighCPU`
+- `LowDiskSpace`
+
+Route warning/critical severities to the operations channel and keep runbook links attached to each alert definition.
+
+Operational resilience baseline:
+
+- Emergency slate fallback for playout failure.
+- Auto-restart policies for playout/chat/nginx containers.
+- Weekly backup and restore drills for stateful data (`data/chat`, playlist metadata, Postgres).
+- Incident runbook with triage order: edge reachability -> origin health -> playout progression -> chat connectivity -> data-plane dependencies.
+
+### API Documentation Reference
+
+Linear Void currently exposes three operational API surfaces. The canonical detailed contract should live in `API.md`, while this section provides the architecture-level map.
+
+#### Chat WebSocket API
+
+- Endpoint: `/ws`
+- Transport: `wss://` in production, `ws://` locally
+- Query parameters:
+  - `username`
+  - `room`
+- Message envelope (typical):
+  - `room`
+  - `username`
+  - `text`
+  - `type` (`public`, `private`, `system`)
+- Responsibilities:
+  - room fan-out
+  - private DM channel routing
+  - moderation command handling
+  - rate limiting and presence integration
+
+#### Playout and Delivery REST API
+
+- Health endpoints:
+  - playout health (`/health` on playout service)
+  - edge/origin health (`/health` via nginx)
+- Stream delivery:
+  - HLS manifest and segment path namespace under `/hls/`
+- Responsibilities:
+  - expose liveness for orchestration and monitoring
+  - provide stable HLS path contract for viewer and CDN
+
+#### Admin REST API
+
+- Auth/session:
+  - `/api/admin/login`
+  - `/api/admin/logout`
+  - `/api/admin/session`
+- Operational/admin domains:
+  - overview, analytics, users, moderation, schedule, playlist, media
+- Media upload domain:
+  - `/api/admin/media/uploads` (init/resume)
+  - `/api/admin/media/uploads/{uploadId}/chunk`
+  - `/api/admin/media/uploads/{uploadId}/complete`
+- Responsibilities:
+  - protected control plane for operator workflows
+  - media metadata + upload orchestration
+  - moderation/audit and system status management
+
+### Cloudflare Configuration Reference
+
+Cloudflare is part of the production control plane, not only a CDN edge. The following configuration set is required to maintain cost, latency, and reliability targets.
+
+#### DNS and Zone Routing
+
+- `linearvoid.tv` -> application origin (nginx)
+- `www.linearvoid.tv` -> redirect to apex
+- `media.linearvoid.tv` -> media domain for HLS/object delivery when split-domain mode is enabled
+
+#### Cache Rules Baseline
+
+- HLS segments (`.ts`, `.m4s`):
+  - Cache Everything
+  - long TTL (immutable)
+  - respect immutable semantics
+- Manifests (`.m3u8`):
+  - short TTL (1-10s)
+  - revalidation-friendly policy for timeline freshness
+
+#### Edge Security and Controls
+
+- Enforce HTTPS/WSS and redirect HTTP to HTTPS.
+- Enable WAF baseline protections for common web exploits.
+- Apply rate limits for abusive request patterns (especially auth/admin paths).
+- Keep origin exposure minimized (prefer Cloudflare-only public ingress where feasible).
+
+#### Worker and Header Policy
+
+- Use Worker logic for immutable cache headers and request normalization where cache rules alone are insufficient.
+- Keep CORS behavior explicit for HLS resources to support browser playback.
+
+#### Operations and Validation
+
+- Validate cache behavior after deployment:
+  - expected cache status progression (MISS -> HIT)
+  - manifest freshness under active playout
+- Track edge metrics and adjust:
+  - cache hit ratio
+  - request volume and error rates
+  - ToS/cost posture for sustained traffic profiles
 
 ### Security & Moderation
 
-HTTPS/WSS only, strict CORS, Cloudflare WAF, authenticated admin paths, rate limiting, immutable moderation log. Private DMs not E2EE by default.
+Security is split between edge controls (Cloudflare), reverse proxy controls (nginx), and application controls (chat/admin backend).
+
+#### Transport and Edge Protection
+
+- Public traffic uses HTTPS/WSS at the edge.
+- Cloudflare WAF and rate limiting are part of the baseline (see [cache-rules](../docs/infrastructure/cloudflare/cache-rules.md)).
+- Cloudflare Worker can enforce immutable cache headers for segment paths (`infrastructure/cloudflare/worker.js`).
+
+#### Reverse Proxy Enforcement (nginx)
+
+- Admin UI and admin API paths are protected by `auth_request` before reaching backend handlers (`/admin/`, `/api/admin/`).
+- Unauthorized admin UI requests are redirected to `/admin/login/`.
+- Unauthorized admin API requests return JSON `401` from a dedicated location handler.
+- WebSocket upgrade headers are explicitly forwarded for `/ws`.
+
+#### Admin Authentication and Session Security
+
+- Admin authentication is cookie-session based (`linearvoid_admin_session`).
+- Session cookie controls in backend include `HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Strict`, and `Secure` when request is HTTPS (derived from TLS or `X-Forwarded-Proto`).
+- Session expiration is enforced server-side.
+
+#### Rate Limiting and Abuse Controls
+
+- Chat message rate limiting uses Redis `INCR + EXPIRE` windowing.
+- Current baseline in chat handler: `>10` messages within `10s` triggers a user-facing throttle response.
+- If Redis is unavailable, presence/rate-limit features degrade gracefully (warning logged; core chat remains available).
+
+#### CORS and Cross-Origin Behavior
+
+- HLS endpoints exposed by nginx include explicit `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` for player compatibility.
+- Admin/authenticated routes are expected to run same-origin behind nginx auth gates.
+
+#### Moderation and Privacy
+
+- Moderation commands (`/mod`, `/mute`, `/ban`) are handled in backend chat flow and persisted through chat storage paths.
+- Private DMs are application-level private channels, not end-to-end encrypted in current architecture.
+- Moderation and audit retention policies should be formalized in runbook/ops docs as part of production hardening.

@@ -354,6 +730,147 @@ These ADRs together form the canonical decision log.
 
 See **Quality Goals** table in the Introduction section. Primary scenarios focus on cost (near-zero egress), availability (auto-restart + fallback), scalability (edge caching), and usability (synchronized player + responsive chat).
 
+### Performance Benchmarks and Capacity Planning
+
+#### Baseline SLO Targets (v1)
+
+- Playback startup: target < 4s after first manifest request on warm cache.
+- Steady-state playback: no segment starvation during normal operation.
+- End-to-end HLS latency: expected 15-35s (standard HLS trade-off).
+- Chat delivery latency: p95 < 500ms inside same region under normal load.
+- Admin page responsiveness: p95 API response < 1s for common read operations.
+
+#### Workload Assumptions
+
+- Primary audience in US; origin in US-East.
+- Edge cache serves most segment traffic; origin handles manifest churn and cache misses.
+- Chat traffic scales with concurrent viewers but remains low-bandwidth compared to video.
+
+#### Initial Capacity Model
+
+- Video bitrate envelopes (from ADR-001):
+  - 720p30: ~2.6-4.2 Mbps total with audio.
+  - 1080p30: ~5.1-8.2 Mbps total with audio.
+- Storage planning for 48h rolling library:
+  - 720p30: ~57-90 GB raw (allocate ~80-110 GB with headroom).
+  - 1080p30: ~110-175 GB raw (allocate ~130-180 GB with headroom).
+- Cost behavior:
+  - Viewer scale is mostly constrained by cache efficiency and request volume, not by direct origin egress.
+
+#### Benchmark Plan
+
+- Playback path:
+  - Measure time-to-first-frame and rebuffer events from multiple US regions.
+  - Track manifest freshness and segment availability at edge.
+- Chat path:
+  - Load-test concurrent websocket connections and message fan-out.
+  - Measure p50/p95 send-to-receive latency and Redis fallback behavior.
+- Admin/API path:
+  - Benchmark playlist/system endpoints for p95 latency and error rate.
+- Platform path:
+  - Observe TSDB ingestion, query p99, and GC pause behavior in Grafana.
+
+#### Capacity Triggers and Actions
+
+- Trigger: sustained viewer growth with rising cache-miss ratio.
+  - Action: tighten cache policy, enable/verify Tiered Cache, review manifest TTL.
+- Trigger: chat p95 latency drift or websocket error growth.
+  - Action: scale chat service, tune Redis, separate noisy moderation workloads.
+- Trigger: Prometheus WAL/compaction failures or query saturation.
+  - Action: tune retention/cardinality, increase resources, split dashboards/queries.
+- Trigger: origin CPU/memory pressure on playout host.
+  - Action: optimize FFmpeg profile, isolate services, add secondary origin.
+
+### Scaling Strategy
+
+Scaling is designed to preserve cost efficiency first, then increase throughput and resilience in controlled phases.
+
+#### Phase 1: Vertical + Cache-First (Current Baseline)
+
+- Single primary origin in US-East with strong Cloudflare edge caching.
+- Optimize segment immutability and manifest TTL before adding infrastructure.
+- Scale compute vertically when CPU/memory pressure appears on playout/chat host.
+
+#### Phase 2: Service Separation
+
+- Split playout, chat, and observability workloads across dedicated nodes/VMs.
+- Isolate noisy workloads (analytics, heavy admin tasks) from latency-sensitive chat paths.
+- Introduce managed PostgreSQL/Redis or dedicated state nodes where operationally justified.
+
+#### Phase 3: Multi-Origin Resilience
+
+- Add warm standby or active-secondary origin.
+- Use health-aware DNS/origin failover strategy.
+- Keep HLS path and cache contract stable so viewer impact during failover is minimized.
+
+#### Phase 4: Regional and Throughput Expansion
+
+- Add additional origin region only when audience distribution and latency justify it.
+- Keep chat affinity strategy explicit (regional routing, state replication considerations).
+- Continuously evaluate cache miss economics vs additional origin complexity.
+
+#### Scaling Triggers
+
+- Rising cache miss ratio with sustained traffic growth.
+- Chat p95/p99 latency drift or websocket error growth.
+- Persistent origin resource saturation despite optimization.
+- Increased blast-radius concerns from single-host dependency.
+
+### Disaster Recovery and Backup Procedures
+
+#### Recovery Targets
+
+- RPO target: <= 24h for chat/moderation/admin metadata.
+- RTO target: <= 60 minutes for restoring baseline streaming + chat operations.
+
+#### Backup Scope
+
+- Persistent service volumes:
+  - Postgres data (`postgres-data` volume).
+  - Redis append-only persistence (`redis-data` volume) where enabled.
+  - Prometheus long-term TSDB (`prometheus-data` volume) if historical metrics retention is required.
+  - Grafana state (`grafana-data` volume) if dashboards/users are managed in-instance.
+- Host-mounted state directories:
+  - `data/chat`
+  - `data/playlist`
+  - `data/media` (authoritative source may be R2/object storage)
+  - `data/hls` (optional; can be regenerated by playout)
+- Configuration and infra source of truth:
+  - Compose files, nginx config, monitoring configs, and environment template.
+
+#### Backup Cadence
+
+- Daily logical Postgres backups (plus weekly full snapshot).
+- Daily sync of chat/playlist state directories.
+- Weekly integrity check by restoring backups into an isolated environment.
+- Retention policy baseline:
+  - Daily backups: 14 days
+  - Weekly backups: 8 weeks
+  - Monthly backups: 6 months
+
+#### Recovery Runbook (Minimum)
+
+1. Restore infrastructure configuration (compose, nginx, env, monitoring config).
+2. Restore Postgres and Redis persisted state.
+3. Restore `data/playlist` and chat persistence directories.
+4. Rehydrate media from authoritative object storage if local media is missing.
+5. Start stack and validate in order:
+   - `playout` health endpoint
+   - `chat` health endpoint
+   - nginx `/health`
+   - HLS playlist availability
+   - websocket chat connectivity
+6. Verify admin authentication and moderation audit visibility.
+7. Announce recovery and continue elevated monitoring for at least one playlist cycle.
+
+#### Failure Modes and Strategy
+
+- Single-host loss: redeploy stack on standby host, restore data backups, repoint DNS/edge origin.
+- Storage corruption: restore last known-good snapshot and replay latest logical backups.
+- Partial service failure: replace only impacted service and restore scoped data (for example Postgres only).
+
+Document and rehearse this runbook quarterly; recovery that is not exercised is not reliable.

@@ -12,89 +12,78 @@ The system needs persistent storage for:
 - Chat messages and history (public rooms and private DMs).
 - User accounts, roles, and ban lists.
 - Moderation audit log (immutable record of admin and moderator actions).
-- Playlist metadata and schedule overrides.
+- Playlist and media metadata used by admin flows.
-- System configuration (including Redis settings adjustable via admin UI per ADR-005/ADR-007).
+- System configuration visibility in admin APIs.
 
-From ADR-003 we prefer operational simplicity. ADR-005 requires a robust audit trail. We must decide between **SQLite** (embedded, zero-config) and **PostgreSQL** (full-featured, scalable) and document how the admin interface can view and adjust storage-related configuration.
+The codebase now ships with a PostgreSQL service in Docker Compose (`db`) and chat is configured with a PostgreSQL `DATABASE_URL` by default. The backend still supports SQLite for optional local fallback, but the deployed and compose-default path is PostgreSQL.
 
 ## Decision Drivers
 
-1. **Operational Simplicity** – Minimize infrastructure (no separate DB server for SQLite).
+1. **Implemented Reality** - Docker Compose already provisions PostgreSQL and chat depends on it.
-2. **Performance & Concurrency** – Chat and moderation may have high write volume.
+2. **Concurrency & Throughput** - Chat, moderation, and media metadata writes require stronger concurrent write behavior.
-3. **Backup and Recovery** – Easy point-in-time recovery and replication.
+3. **Operational Traceability** - Structured backups, service health checks, and persistent volume management are already in place for PostgreSQL.
-4. **Admin Capabilities** – Admin UI must be able to view storage stats, run vacuum/analyze, and switch between SQLite and PostgreSQL (with migration path).
+4. **Admin Growth** - Upcoming admin features (media CRUD, analytics, moderation tooling) benefit from relational querying and indexing.
-5. **Auditability** – Moderation log must be immutable and queryable.
+5. **Fallback Simplicity** - Keep SQLite support for lightweight local or recovery scenarios without blocking developer workflows.
-6. **Cost** – Avoid managed database costs during early stages.
 
 ## Decision
 
-**Primary storage for v1: SQLite** (embedded in the chat and admin services).
+**Primary storage for current implementation: PostgreSQL (Docker Compose `db` service).**
 
-**Migration Path**: Provide a clear upgrade path to PostgreSQL when concurrency or replication needs exceed SQLite capabilities (target v2 or when concurrent users > 500).
+**Secondary/Fallback mode:** SQLite remains supported via `DATABASE_URL=sqlite://...` for local-only scenarios.
 
-**Admin Interface Capabilities** (extension of ADR-005):
+**Current Backend Behavior**:
 
-- "System Configuration" tab showing current storage engine, database size, connection stats, and vacuum status.
+- Chat backend (`backend/chat/src/main.go`) resolves `DATABASE_URL` at startup.
-- Buttons to run `VACUUM`, `ANALYZE`, or trigger a backup.
+- `postgres://` or `postgresql://` selects PostgreSQL driver.
-- Configuration form to switch connection string (SQLite file path vs PostgreSQL URL) and restart services gracefully.
+- `sqlite://` selects SQLite driver.
-- Audit log of all configuration changes.
+- Empty `DATABASE_URL` falls back to local `chat.db` for developer convenience.
+- GORM AutoMigrate is used for chat/admin data models.
 
-**Technical Details**:
+**Media Model Decision (Admin UI Feature Track)**:
 
-- Use SQLite with WAL mode for better concurrency.
+- Media metadata is persisted in the same database as messages and moderation logs.
-- Use GORM or sqlx (Go) or Prisma (if Node.js fallback) for ORM/migrations.
+- Physical media files remain on the shared filesystem (`/app/media`, mapped from `data/media`).
-- Store large chat history in a separate table with retention policy (e.g., 30 days).
+- The database is the source of truth for media library metadata and future runtime analytics.
-- Moderation log as an append-only table with triggers for immutability.
-
-**Folder Placement** (per ADR-002):
-
-- Database models and migrations in `backend/shared/db/` or `backend/chat/internal/db/`.
-- Admin UI pages for storage management in `frontend/admin/system/`.
 
 ## Rationale
 
-- SQLite aligns with ADR-003's emphasis on operational simplicity and low resource usage for the initial deployment on a single Hetzner VPS.
+- The repository already operationalizes PostgreSQL in both `docker-compose.yml` and `docker-compose.prod.yml` with persistent storage.
-- It eliminates the need for a separate database container in `docker-compose.yml` during early development.
+- Default environment documentation (`.env.example`, setup docs) already points to PostgreSQL.
-- The admin interface can provide visibility and basic maintenance operations, fulfilling the requirement from the previous TODO plan.
+- This aligns architecture documentation with implemented behavior and avoids drift.
-- PostgreSQL can be introduced later with a migration script when scale demands it (replication, advanced querying, full-text search on chat).
+- Keeping SQLite support preserves local flexibility while avoiding a hard breaking change.
 
 ## Consequences
 
 **Positive**:
 
-- Zero-config database for quick local development and small-scale production.
+- Better write concurrency and query flexibility for chat + admin workloads.
-- Simple backups (just copy the `.db` file).
+- Clear operational model for containerized deployments (health checks, named volume, service dependency).
-- Admin UI can directly manage and monitor storage without external tools.
+- Easier extension for admin analytics and media metadata features.
 
 **Negative / Risks**:
 
-- SQLite has limited concurrency compared to PostgreSQL (WAL mode helps but is not a full replacement).
+- Additional service to operate versus embedded-only SQLite.
-- Large chat history or analytics queries may become slow – plan retention policy and archiving.
+- Misconfigured `DATABASE_URL` can still route to SQLite fallback unintentionally if left empty outside compose.
-- Migration to PostgreSQL will require downtime or dual-write strategy (documented in this ADR).
+- Requires backup/restore procedures for PostgreSQL volume in production runbooks.
 
-**Alternatives Considered**:
+## Alternatives Considered
 
-- PostgreSQL from day one – rejected for added operational complexity (separate service, connection pooling, managed service cost).
+- SQLite-first in production: rejected for current implementation because compose and deployment already run PostgreSQL.
-- Pure key-value store (e.g., BoltDB) – rejected because SQL is better for audit logs and complex moderation queries.
+- PostgreSQL-only with no fallback: rejected to preserve local dev and troubleshooting flexibility.
-- Managed database (Neon, Supabase) – rejected to maintain full self-hosted independence per ADR-001.
+- Managed external PostgreSQL: deferred; self-hosted compose remains the preferred operational model.

+# Incident Runbook
+
+Triage order for Linear Void incidents. Work top-to-bottom — each tier depends on the one above.
+
+## Triage Order
+
+1. Edge Reachability (Cloudflare)
+2. Origin Health (VPS/Docker)
+3. Playout Progression (HLS)
+4. Chat Connectivity (WebSocket)
+5. Data-Plane (Redis/DB)
+
+## 1. Edge Reachability (Cloudflare)
+
+**Symptoms:** `linearvoid.tv` not resolving, SSL errors, 5xx from Cloudflare.
+
+```bash
+# Check DNS
+dig linearvoid.tv
+dig www.linearvoid.tv
+
+# Check Cloudflare status
+curl -I https://linearvoid.tv/health
+```
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+- DNS misconfiguration (A record pointing to wrong IP)
+- Cloudflare proxy disabled (grey cloud → origin exposed directly)
+- SSL certificate expired (check Cloudflare dashboard → SSL/TLS)
+- Cloudflare outage → check [https://www.cloudflarestatus.com](https://www.cloudflarestatus.com)
+
+**Mitigation:**
+
+- Verify A record: `linearvoid.tv` → origin IP (proxied, orange cloud)
+- Bypass Cloudflare temporarily: `curl -H "Host: linearvoid.tv" http://<origin-ip>/health`
+
+## 2. Origin Health (VPS/Docker)
+
+**Symptoms:** Cloudflare returns 502/504, containers down.
+
+```bash
+# Remote Docker (test lab)
+docker -H tcp://192.168.88.40:2375 ps
+docker -H tcp://192.168.88.40:2375 logs linearvoid-nginx --tail 50
+
+# Direct health check
+curl http://192.168.88.40/health
+```
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+- Host out of disk space: `df -h`
+- Docker daemon stopped: `systemctl status docker`
+- Container restart loop: `docker ps -a --filter "status=exited"`
+- Resource exhaustion (OOM): `dmesg | grep -i oom`
+
+**Mitigation:**
+
+- Restart stack: `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`
+- Free disk: `docker system prune -f`
+- Check logs per service: `docker logs linearvoid-<service> --tail 100`
+
+## 3. Playout Progression (HLS)
+
+**Symptoms:** Viewer sees slate or buffering, playlist not advancing.
+
+```bash
+# Check playout health
+curl http://192.168.88.40:8081/health
+# Response includes "mode": "live" or "slate"
+
+# Check HLS output
+curl -I http://192.168.88.40/hls/playlist.m3u8
+ls -la data/hls/
+
+# Check playout logs
+docker logs linearvoid-playout --tail 100
+```
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+- FFmpeg crash → slate fallback active (health shows `degraded`)
+- Playlist file empty/missing: `cat data/playlist/playlist.txt`
+- Media file missing from playlist: `ls data/media/`
+- Disk full → HLS segments can't write
+
+**Mitigation:**
+
+- Verify playlist has valid entries
+- Check media files exist at paths in playlist
+- Restart playout: `docker compose restart playout`
+- Generate demo playlist if empty: see `backend/playout/start-playout.sh`
+
+## 4. Chat Connectivity (WebSocket)
+
+**Symptoms:** Chat not loading, messages not sending, presence broken.
+
+```bash
+# Check chat health
+curl http://192.168.88.40:3000/health
+
+# Test WebSocket
+wscat -c ws://192.168.88.40/ws?username=test&room=main
+
+# Check chat logs
+docker logs linearvoid-chat --tail 100
+```
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+- Redis down → presence/rate-limiting degraded (chat still works)
+- Database down → messages not persisting
+- Port not exposed: `docker port linearvoid-chat`
+
+**Mitigation:**
+
+- Restart chat: `docker compose restart chat`
+- Check Redis: `docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli ping`
+- Check DB: `docker exec linearvoid-db pg_isready -U linearvoid`
+- Chat works without Redis (graceful degradation) — check logs for "Redis connection warning"
+
+## 5. Data-Plane (Redis/DB)
+
+**Symptoms:** Chat works but no persistence/presence, admin stats empty.
+
+```bash
+# Redis
+docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli ping
+docker exec linearvoid-redis redis-cli info memory
+
+# PostgreSQL
+docker exec linearvoid-db pg_isready -U linearvoid
+docker exec linearvoid-db psql -U linearvoid -c "SELECT count(*) FROM messages;"
+```
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+- Redis OOM (check `maxmemory` setting)
+- PostgreSQL connection limit reached
+- Disk full on volume mount
+
+**Mitigation:**
+
+- Redis: `docker compose restart redis` (AOF persist enabled)
+- PostgreSQL: `docker compose restart db`
+- Restore from backup: see `scripts/verify-backups.sh` for procedure
+

+- Restore DB and media/playlist mounts
+- Verify viewer playback, chat, admin auth, monitoring targets
+
+### Drill Steps
+
+1. Record drill start timestamp and on-call participants.
+2. Capture pre-drill baseline:
+   - `curl -fsS http://<origin>/health`
+   - `curl -fsS http://<origin>:3000/health`
+   - `curl -fsS http://<origin>:8081/health`
+3. Simulate origin outage:
+   - `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down`
+4. Provision clean recovery host (or clean test-lab VM) and copy deployment bundle.
+5. Restore required data paths:
+   - `data/playlist/`
+   - `data/media/`
+   - `data/chat/`
+   - `data/hls/` (optional warm cache)
+6. Restore database from latest backup dump.
+7. Start stack:
+   - `docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`
+8. Validate service health and runtime:
+   - `docker ps --format "table {{.Names}}\t{{.Status}}"`
+   - `curl -fsS http://<origin>/health`
+   - `curl -fsS http://<origin>/hls/playlist.m3u8 | head -n 5`
+   - `curl -fsS http://<origin>:9090/-/ready`
+9. Validate app behavior:
+   - Viewer SPA loads and HLS plays
+   - WebSocket chat connects and message round-trip works
+   - Admin login/session endpoint returns success
+10. Run backup integrity check:
+    - `scripts/verify-backups.sh`
+11. Record drill end timestamp and compute measured RTO/RPO.
+
+### Pass/Fail Criteria
+
+- Pass if all core services healthy and functional in <= 60 minutes.
+- Pass if latest recoverable data point is <= 24 hours old.
+- Fail if any critical path remains degraded (playout, chat, admin auth, monitoring).
+
+### Evidence Template
+
+Document each drill in incident tracker with:
+
+- Date/time window
+- Environment (test-lab, staging, production)
+- Backup artifact IDs and timestamps
+- Measured RTO and RPO
+- Issues found and remediation owner
+- Follow-up ticket links

+# Cloudflare Cache Rules for Linear Void (per ADR-001)
+
+## Recommended Cache Rules for media.linearvoid.tv
+
+1. **.m4s and .ts segments (immutable)**
+   - Expression: (http.host eq "media.linearvoid.tv" and (http.request.uri.path contains ".ts" or http.request.uri.path contains ".m4s"))
+   - Cache status: Eligible for cache
+   - Edge Cache TTL: 1 month (or `Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable` from origin)
+   - Cache Everything: Yes
+
+2. **.m3u8 manifests (live)**
+   - Expression: (http.host eq "media.linearvoid.tv" and http.request.uri.path contains ".m3u8")
+   - Cache status: Eligible for cache
+   - Edge Cache TTL: 2 seconds
+   - Cache-Control: public, max-age=2, must-revalidate
+
+3. **Static assets**
+   - Expression: (http.host eq "linearvoid.tv" and http.request.uri.path contains ".js" or http.request.uri.path contains ".css")
+   - Edge Cache TTL: 1 year (with hash in filename for immutable caching)
+
+**Tiered Cache**: Enable Smart Tiered Cache for R2 custom domain to reduce origin requests.
+
+**WAF**: Enable basic rate limiting and bot management for /ws and admin routes.
+
+These rules ensure high cache hit ratio for .m4s and .ts segments while keeping live manifests fresh. Monitor cache hit ratio in Cloudflare analytics.

+# Prometheus scrape target metric names
+
+Here are ready‑to‑run **cURL** commands you can use to query each Prometheus scrape target and list the metric names they expose.  
+The Prometheus HTTP API endpoint `http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values` returns all metric names currently known for the target’s job/instance.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Chat (`http://chat:3000/metrics`)
+
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job="chat",instance="chat:3000"}' | jq .
+```
+
+## 2. NGINX exporter (`http://nginx-exporter:9113/metrics`)
+
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job="nginx",instance="nginx-exporter:9113"}' | jq .
+```
+
+## 3. Node exporter (`http://node-exporter:9100/metrics`)
+
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job="node",instance="node-exporter:9100"}' | jq .
+```
+
+## 4. Playout (`http://playout:8081/metrics`)
+
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job="playout",instance="playout:8081"}' | jq .
+```
+
+## 5. Postgres exporter (`http://postgres-exporter:9187/metrics`)
+
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job="postgres",instance="postgres-exporter:9187"}' | jq .
+```
+
+## 6. Prometheus itself (`http://prometheus:9090/metrics`)
+
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job="prometheus",instance="prometheus:9090"}' | jq .
+```
+
+## 7. Redis exporter (`http://redis-exporter:9121/metrics`)
+
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job="redis",instance="redis-exporter:9121"}' | jq .
+```
+
+---
+
+### How it works
+
+- `http://localhost:9090` – address of your Prometheus server.
+- `/api/v1/label/__name__/values` – API call that lists _all_ metric names (`__name__` label) known to Prometheus.
+- `match[]` – a selector that restricts the result to the specific `job` and `instance` you care about.
+- `-s` – silent mode (no progress meter).
+- `| jq .` – pretty‑prints the JSON response (optional but handy).
+
+Running any of these commands will output a JSON array like:
+
+```json
+[
+  "up",
+  "process_cpu_seconds_total",
+  "http_requests_total",
+  ...
+]
+```
+
+which is the full set of metrics currently being scraped from that target. Adjust the Prometheus host/port if it differs from `http://localhost:9090`.

+# Prometheus scrape target metric names (Windows)
+
+Below are **cURL** one‑liners you can run from a Windows command prompt (or PowerShell) that query the Prometheus HTTP API and print the raw JSON list of metric names for each target.  
+Since **jq** isn’t installed, the commands simply echo the JSON response; you can pipe it to `findstr` or PowerShell’s `ConvertFrom‑Json` if you want a prettier view.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Chat (`http://chat:3000/metrics`)
+
+```cmd
+curl "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job=\"chat\",instance=\"chat:3000\"}"
+```
+
+## 2. NGINX exporter (`http://nginx-exporter:9113/metrics`)

+
+```cmd
+curl "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job=\"redis\",instance=\"redis-exporter:9121\"}"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Making the output a bit more readable (optional)
+
+If you have **PowerShell** (available on Windows 10/11), you can format the JSON nicely:
+
+```powershell
+curl "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={job=`"chat`",instance=`"chat:3000`"}" |
+  ConvertFrom-Json |
+  Select-Object -ExpandProperty data |
+  Sort-Object
+```
+
+Replace the URL part with the one for the target you’re interested in. The pipeline:
+
+1. Calls `curl` (the built‑in alias for `Invoke-WebRequest` in PowerShell).
+2. `ConvertFrom-Json` parses the JSON.
+3. `Select-Object -ExpandProperty data` extracts the array of metric names.
+4. `Sort-Object` alphabetizes them.
+
+You can similarly pipe the output to `findstr /i "http_requests_total"` to search for a particular metric name without any extra tools.
+
+---
+
+### Quick checklist
+
+| Item                    | What to adjust                                                                                                                                  |
+| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Prometheus address**  | If your Prometheus container isn’t bound to `localhost:9090`, replace `localhost:9090` with the appropriate host/port (e.g., `127.0.0.1:9090`). |
+| **Target job/instance** | The `job` and `instance` values must match the labels shown in your UI (they’re case‑sensitive).                                                |
+| **PowerShell vs CMD**   | The raw `curl` commands work in both CMD and PowerShell; the PowerShell‑only pretty‑print uses `ConvertFrom‑Json`.                              |
+
+Run the command for any target and you’ll receive a JSON payload like:
+
+```json
+{
+  "status": "success",
+  "data": [
+    "up",
+    "process_cpu_seconds_total",
+    "http_requests_total",
+    "... more metrics ..."
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+That array (`data`) is the complete list of metric names currently scraped from the specified endpoint.

+| ----------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| **Pages**   | Static SPA hosting | Vite-built frontend (`frontend/dist`) deployed via Git integration or Direct Upload  |
+| **Workers** | Edge cache logic   | `infrastructure/cloudflare/worker.js` — adds immutable cache headers to HLS segments |
+
+Both are managed under **Workers & Pages** in the Cloudflare dashboard.
+
+## Dashboard URLs
+

+
+## Worker: `linearvoid` (edge cache headers)
+
+The Worker at `infrastructure/cloudflare/worker.js` runs on the `linearvoid` Workers service. It intercepts requests and adds immutable `Cache-Control` headers to `.m4s` segment files.
+
+Deploy via Wrangler CLI:
+
+```bash
+npx wrangler deploy infrastructure/cloudflare/worker.js
+```
+
+Or paste into the Workers dashboard at the URL above (Quick Edit).
+
+## Pages: Static frontend
+
+### Direct Upload via Gitea Actions
+
+Use `.gitea/workflows/pages-deploy.yml` to build in Gitea Actions and upload via the Cloudflare API.
+
+See [gitea-cloudflare-pages.md](./gitea-cloudflare-pages.md) for the workflow.
+
+### Variables and secrets
+
+On Cloudflare pages, set the following environment variables (needed to run the frontend)

+# Gitea to Cloudflare Pages — Linear Void
+
+## Goal
+
+Deploy the Linear Void frontend (Vite + TypeScript SPA) from Gitea to Cloudflare Pages using Gitea Actions.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+> **Important:** The Pages project must exist before the API deploy call works. You'll get error 8000007 ("Project not found") if you skip this step.
+
+1. **Cloudflare Pages project** created first:
+   - Dashboard → Workers & Pages → Create → Pages → Direct Upload
+   - Name it `linearvoid` (or a different name if `linearvoid` is already taken by a Worker — see note below)
+   - See [Cloudflare Pages Setup](./cloudflare-pages-setup.md) for full details.
+2. **Project name**: note the exact name (e.g., `linearvoid`).
+3. **API token** with Pages permissions:
+   - Create at <https://dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens>
+   - Permission: `Account → Cloudflare Pages → Edit`
+   - Store in Gitea → Settings → Secrets as `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN`
+4. **Account ID** from Cloudflare dashboard overview → store as `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID`
+
+> **Naming conflict:** If a Worker already exists with the name `linearvoid`, the Pages project must use a different name (e.g., `linearvoid-site`). Update the `projectName` in the workflow accordingly. Workers and Pages share a namespace under "Workers & Pages".
+
+## Project-specific values
+
+| Setting            | Value                                                      |
+| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------- |

+  push:
+    branches: ["main"]
+  workflow_dispatch: {}
+
+jobs:
+  deploy:

+    steps:
+      - name: Checkout
+        uses: actions/checkout@v4
+
+      - name: Setup Node
+        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
+        with:
+          node-version: 22
+
+      - name: Install dependencies
+        run: cd frontend && npm ci
+
+      - name: Build
+        run: cd frontend && npm run build
+
+      - name: Deploy to Cloudflare Pages
+        uses: cloudflare/pages-action@v1
+        with:
+          apiToken: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN }}
+          accountId: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID }}
+          projectName: linearvoid
+          directory: frontend/dist
+          gitHubToken: ${{ secrets.GITEA_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+If the `cloudflare/pages-action@v1` action is unavailable from Gitea, use the direct Cloudflare Pages API (multipart/form-data with manifest):
+
+Snippet to generate a manifest in format `-F manifest='{"index.html": "abc123", "style.css": "def456"}'`
+
+```bash
+# Build manifest form argument from all files in frontend/dist
+form_args="-F manifest={"
+for file in $(find frontend/dist -type f | sed 's|^frontend/dist/||'); do
+  hash=$(sha256sum "frontend/dist/$file" | awk '{print $1}')
+  form_args="$form_args\"$file\":\"$hash\","
+done
+form_args="${form_args%,}}" # remove trailing comma and close JSON
+```
+
+```yaml
+- name: Generate deployment manifest
+  run: |
+    cd frontend/dist
+    form_args="-F manifest={"
+    for file in $(find . -type f ! -name manifest.json | sed 's|^\./||'); do
+      hash=$(sha256sum "$file" | awk '{print $1}')
+      form_args="$form_args\"$file\":\"$hash\","
+    done
+    form_args="${form_args%,}}" # remove trailing comma and close JSON
+    echo "Form arguments: $form_args"
+    echo "FORM_ARGS=$form_args" >> $GITHUB_ENV
+
+- name: Deploy to Cloudflare Pages
+  env:
+    CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN }}
+    CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID }}
+  run: |
+    cd frontend/dist
+    form_args="$FORM_ARGS" # use form arguments generated in previous step
+    COMMIT_HASH=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown")
+    curl -sS -X POST \
+      "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/${CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID}/pages/projects/linearvoid/deployments" \
+      -H "Authorization: Bearer ${CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN}" \
+      -F "commit_hash=${COMMIT_HASH}" \
+      $form_args
+```
+
+This matches the Cloudflare Pages Direct Upload API: `Content-Type: multipart/form-data`, each file as a separate form field, and a `manifest` JSON mapping filenames to SHA-256 hashes.
+
+## Secrets to add in Gitea
+
+| Secret                  | Value                                |
+| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
+| `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN`  | API token with Pages:Edit permission |
+| `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID` | Cloudflare account ID from dashboard |
+
+## Verify deployment
+
+1. Push to `main` or trigger manually from Gitea Actions.
+2. Check **Gitea Actions** → job logs for the deploy step.
+3. Check **Cloudflare Pages** → Deployments for the new deployment.
+4. Visit the `.pages.dev` preview URL, then promote to `linearvoid.tv` when ready.
+
+## Notes
+
+- The existing `ci.yml` already builds the frontend; the Pages deploy workflow is additive and independent.
+- Multi-page SPA (`vite.config.ts`) produces three entry points — Cloudflare Pages serves them correctly.
+- For SPA fallback routing, add a `frontend/public/_redirects` file with `/* /index.html 200` before building.
+- If deployments fail with 403, verify the API token has `Account → Cloudflare Pages → Edit` permission.
+- If you get error **8000007** ("Project not found"), the Pages project hasn't been created yet. Create it via the Cloudflare dashboard (Workers & Pages → Create → Pages → Direct Upload) first, then re-run.
+- If `linearvoid` is already taken by a Worker, use a different project name like `linearvoid-site` and update the `projectName` and `PROJECT_NAME` values in the workflow.

+# Scaling and Performance Playbook
+
+Purpose: define repeatable method to measure performance, capture baseline data, and decide scaling actions.
+
+Scope: planning and execution guide for TODO items under "Scaling & Performance (planning only)".
+
+## 1) Manifest TTL Tuning Plan
+
+Goal: tune `.m3u8` TTL to about `0.5x` segment duration while keeping playback stable.
+
+Inputs:
+
+- Segment duration (`HLS_SEGMENT_DURATION`)
+- Current manifest TTL (Cloudflare cache rule)
+- Cache outcome distribution (`Cf-Cache-Status`)
+
+Procedure:
+
+1. Start from current manifest TTL (2s).
+2. Capture 24h baseline headers from repeated `playlist.m3u8` requests.
+3. Test candidate TTLs: 1s, 2s, 3s.
+4. Compare:
+   - rebuffer events from player logs
+   - origin request increase/decrease
+   - HIT ratio changes
+5. Select lowest TTL that keeps playback stable and origin load acceptable.
+
+Acceptance:
+
+- No material increase in rebuffer rate.
+- Manifest staleness not observable by users.
+
+## 2) TTFB Baseline Plan
+
+Goal: measure warm-cache TTFB from 3+ US regions with target `< 4s`.
+
+Suggested regions:
+
+- US East (Virginia)
+- US Central
+- US West (California/Oregon)
+
+Method:
+
+1. Use WebPageTest with repeat view enabled.
+2. Run at least 5 samples per region.
+3. Record median and p95 TTFB.
+4. Store results in table (date, region, median, p95, test URL).
+
+Acceptance:
+
+- Warm-cache median < 4s in all tested regions.
+- Outliers documented with likely cause.
+
+### TTFB Baseline Worksheet
+
+Use one row per region and keep the raw WebPageTest result URL with the summary so later runs can be compared against the same evidence.
+
+- US East (Virginia)
+  - Date/time:
+  - Test URL: <https://linearvoid.tv>
+  - WebPageTest result URL:
+  - Median TTFB:
+  - p95 TTFB:

+  - Date/time:
+  - Test URL: <https://linearvoid.tv>
+  - WebPageTest result URL:
+  - Median TTFB:
+  - p95 TTFB:
+  - Notes:
+
+Suggested capture notes:
+
+- Use repeat view for the warm-cache measurement.
+- Keep the same browser profile and test URL across regions.
+- Note any CDN cache-rule changes or deploys that occurred between samples.
+
+## 3) WebSocket Load-Test Plan
+
+Goal: characterize chat service behavior across 10 -> 100 -> 500 -> 1000 concurrent clients.
+
+Tooling option A (Artillery):
+
+```bash
+npx artillery run scripts/loadtest/ws-chat.yml
+```
+
+Tooling option B (custom Go harness):
+
+- open N concurrent WebSocket clients
+- send message every X seconds
+- measure round-trip latency and failures
+
+Metrics to capture:
+
+- p50/p95 message latency
+- error rate (connect, send, receive)
+- dropped connections
+- CPU/memory for `chat`, `redis`, `nginx`
+
+Acceptance:
+
+- p95 chat latency <= 1s at target concurrency tier.
+- error rate <= 1% during steady state.

+Goal: measure admin API p95 and identify slow endpoints.
+
+Tooling option A (`k6`):
+
+```bash
+k6 run scripts/loadtest/admin-api.js
+```
+
+Tooling option B (`wrk`):
+
+```bash
+wrk -t4 -c100 -d60s http://<host>/api/admin/overview
+```
+
+Endpoints:
+
+- `/api/admin/overview`
+- `/api/admin/analytics`
+- `/api/admin/chat-log`
+- `/api/admin/users`
+
+Acceptance:
+
+- p95 < 1s for primary admin endpoints.
+- slow endpoint list with remediation notes.

+## 5) Cache Hit Ratio Tracking Plan
+
+Goal: track Cloudflare cache hit ratio and alert when below threshold.
+
+Implementation outline:
+
+1. Pull Cloudflare GraphQL analytics on schedule.
+2. Export to Prometheus-compatible metric path.
+3. Add Grafana panel with 5m/1h/24h windows.
+4. Alert when hit ratio < 90% for 15m.
+
+Reference exporter:
+
+- `scripts/cache-hit-ratio.js`
+- `scripts/cache-hit-ratio.ps1` for Windows scheduled tasks / manual runs
+- Example run: `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=... CLOUDFLARE_ZONE_TAG=... CLOUDFLARE_HOSTNAME=media.linearvoid.tv node scripts/cache-hit-ratio.js`
+- Windows example: `pwsh -File scripts/cache-hit-ratio.ps1`
+- Intended output: Prometheus text format on stdout, suitable for cron, a Node wrapper, or a small scrape endpoint.
+
+Metric target:
+
+- `cache_hit_ratio >= 0.90`

+
+Define operational triggers:
+
+- Cache miss ratio > 10% for 15m
+- Chat p95 latency > 1s for 5m
+- Host CPU > 80% for 10m
+- Redis memory usage ratio (`linearvoid_chat_redis_memory_usage_ratio`) > 0.85 for 10m
+
+Action mapping:
+
+- Level 1: investigate + restart non-critical components
+- Level 2: scale service resources (CPU/RAM)
+- Level 3: activate standby planning path

+## 7) Phase 2 Service Separation Plan
+
+Objective: separate bottlenecked services while keeping simple ops.
+
+Boundaries:
+
+- `playout` isolated first (CPU-heavy)
+- `chat` + `redis` grouped for latency
+- `db` isolated for IO stability
+- monitoring stack optionally separated after sustained load
+
+Initial sizing guidance:
+
+- playout host: 4 vCPU / 8 GB
+- chat host: 2-4 vCPU / 4-8 GB
+- db host: 2 vCPU / 4 GB + fast disk
+
+Exit criteria for Phase 2:
+
+- repeated trigger events over 7 days
+- capacity saturation despite tuning

+- Primary: Hetzner Ashburn (US-East)
+- Standby: Hetzner Hillsboro (US-West)
+
+Design:
+
+- Warm standby stack deployed and health-checked
+- Redis replication or fallback mode documented

+## 9) Data Capture Template
+
+For each benchmark run, capture:
+
+- Date/time
+- Environment (test-lab/staging/production)
+- Commit SHA / image tag
+- Test scenario and duration
+- Raw metrics (latency, errors, resource usage)
+- Conclusion and next action
+
+## 10) Execution Order
+
+1. TTFB baseline
+2. WebSocket load profile
+3. Admin API benchmark
+4. Cache ratio panel + alerting
+5. Trigger tuning
+6. Phase 2 boundary decision
+7. Phase 3 standby design review
+
+## 11) Benchmark Run Sheet
+
+Use the same worksheet for every baseline or re-test so results stay comparable.
+
+Preconditions:
+
+- Confirm the target environment and commit SHA/image tag.
+- Confirm Cloudflare cache rules are active when testing TTFB or manifest TTL.
+- Confirm the chat, admin, and playout services are healthy before load testing.
+
+Run template:
+
+| Item                       | Value |
+| -------------------------- | ----- |
+| Date/time                  |       |
+| Environment                |       |
+| Commit SHA / image tag     |       |
+| Test scenario              |       |
+| Concurrency / sample count |       |
+| Command or tool            |       |
+| Raw results location       |       |
+| Conclusion                 |       |
+| Next action                |       |
+
+Suggested command mapping:
+
+- TTFB baseline: WebPageTest repeat-view run against `https://linearvoid.tv`.
+- WebSocket profile: `npx artillery run scripts/loadtest/ws-chat.yml` or the Go harness referenced above.
+- Admin API benchmark: `k6 run scripts/loadtest/admin-api.js` or `wrk -t4 -c100 -d60s http://<host>/api/admin/overview`.
+
+## 12) Scaling Decision Gate
+
+Treat the following as the default review gate after any benchmark batch:
+
+1. If warm-cache TTFB meets target but cache hit ratio falls below 90%, tune cache behavior before increasing capacity.
+2. If chat or admin latency exceeds target while CPU and memory remain low, prioritize query or handler optimization.
+3. If CPU, memory, or Redis saturation appears first, treat the service boundary guidance in Phase 2 as the next action.
+4. If the same threshold trips on multiple runs across 7 days, open the Phase 2 or Phase 3 planning path instead of tuning in place.
+
+Decision note:
+
+- Keep the smallest change that restores the target metric and record the reason in the run sheet.
+
+## 13) Artifact-to-Worksheet Field Mapping
+
+Use this section when filling the WebSocket and Admin API worksheets from helper-generated artifacts.
+
+### WebSocket worksheet mapping
+
+Artifact sources:
+
+- `artifacts/<timestamp>/ws-chat-report.json`
+- `artifacts/<timestamp>/ws-chat-summary.txt`
+
+Field mapping:
+
+- Worksheet `Tool used` -> `artillery` (or `run-loadtests.ps1 -Scenario ws`)
+- Worksheet `Raw results location` -> artifact folder path for this run
+- Worksheet `Concurrency tiers reached` -> `ws-chat.yml` phases (`warmup-10`, `sustain-100`, `sustain-500`, `sustain-1000`)
+- Worksheet `Error rate` -> `vusers.failure_rate_percent` from `ws-chat-summary.txt`
+- Worksheet `Dropped connections` -> derive from `vusers.created - vusers.completed` (use `vusers.failed` as failure signal)
+- Worksheet `p95 message latency` -> first available latency line under `summary.*` in `ws-chat-summary.txt` that includes `p95=...`
+- Worksheet `p50 message latency` -> first available latency line under `summary.*` in `ws-chat-summary.txt` that includes `median=...`
+
+Notes:
+
+- The exact `summary.*` metric names in Artillery output can vary by engine/plugins.
+- If no latency summary field is emitted, record this explicitly and use server-side latency metrics as fallback evidence.
+
+### Admin API worksheet mapping
+
+Artifact sources:
+
+- `artifacts/<timestamp>/admin-api-summary.json`
+- `artifacts/<timestamp>/admin-api-output.txt`
+- `artifacts/<timestamp>/admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+
+Field mapping:
+
+- Worksheet `Tool used` -> `k6` (or `run-loadtests.ps1 -Scenario admin`)
+- Worksheet `Raw results location` -> artifact folder path for this run
+- Worksheet `/api/admin/overview` p95 -> `overview` row `P95Ms` in `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+- Worksheet `/api/admin/analytics` p95 -> `analytics` row `P95Ms` in `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+- Worksheet `/api/admin/chat-log` p95 -> `chat_log` row `P95Ms` in `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+- Worksheet `/api/admin/users` p95 -> `users` row `P95Ms` in `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+- Worksheet `Error rate` -> `Global failure rate` in `admin-api-endpoint-summary.txt`
+- Worksheet `Slowest endpoint` -> endpoint row with highest `P95Ms`
+
+Notes:
+
+- Keep the raw `admin-api-summary.json` file for audits and re-parsing.
+- If an endpoint row is missing, treat as test/data issue and re-run with full endpoint coverage.
