HomerandClaude Opus 5 a16510aba8 The interface speaks Slovak
969 strings, an instance default and a per-person choice, and no half-done corner:
the admin prose is translated too. Design and reasoning: LLeMbas.wiki/Translations.

KEYED BY THE ENGLISH SENTENCE

A missing entry renders the key, which is the English -- so an untranslated string
looks as it always did, an English instance is byte-for-byte 1.6.0, and a
half-finished catalogue is a half-translated page rather than a page of dotted key
names. The cost is that editing an English sentence orphans its translation
silently, which is what tests/test_translations.py asserts in both directions.

No gettext: .po -> .mo is a build step and this project does not have one.

A JINJA GLOBAL, AND THEREFORE A CONTEXTVAR

`t()` is a global for the reason `brand` already documents -- render() is bypassed
by 25 TemplateResponse calls and 8 get_template().render() calls, the latter being
the SSE frames, which have no Request at all. A global is bound once at import and
the language is per person, so the active language is a ContextVar set per request.

🚨 `get_current_user` had to become `async def`. FastAPI runs a sync dependency in a
threadpool, and anyio copies the context in and discards it on the way out -- so
the language was set where nothing could see it and every page rendered in the
instance's language whatever anybody had chosen, with no error anywhere.

NOT TRANSLATED, ON PURPOSE

Everything a model reads: the 60 prompt fragments, and the dates in harness.py,
schedule/runner.py and schedule/compile.py. Only `i18n.stamp` is localised, and
only where a person reads it -- with the *format* translatable as well as the
words, because "26. septembra 2026" is a different pattern rather than the same one
with different words in it. A process locale is not an option: global, not
thread-safe, two people's pages at once.

A second fragment telling models to answer in the reader's language was written
during this work and removed: `core.style` has said it since long before, and
test_an_empty_override_turns_a_fragment_off caught the duplicate.

THE BULK PASS

1213 sites wrapped by a one-off script that only touched patterns it could not
misread. It got three wrong in a way that mattered -- `t('…')` inside `attr="…"`
where the sentence held an apostrophe, closing the Jinja string and 500ing two
pages whose partials no test renders. tests/test_translations.py now compiles all
110 templates. It also wrapped the product's own name, an SSH key header, a
keystroke hint and an example URL, all taken back out: a string is not
translatable just because it is a string.

Jaroslav BenešandClaude Opus 5 78e5717f77 An instance that can be somebody else's
A name, a tagline, a logo, a favicon and the launcher icons derived from it; the
Middle-earth strings as data; themes as token sets; and a stylesheet for what
none of that reaches. All four are on one page, in one settings group.

The snapshot is a Jinja global over a process-level cache, because render() has
no session and four render paths never reach it at all -- the sign-in page, the
error pages, the offline page and the SSE fragments. A context value would have
had to be threaded through every one and would still have missed those. It being
a global is also what lets mark() branch on an uploaded logo without any of its
six call sites learning about branding; the macro that renders the sidebar link
is called brandlink now, because a macro imported as `brand` shadows the global
for the whole template and took out every page at once.

Defaults in code and overrides in the database, as the prompt fragments do, with
one difference stated in the module: an empty fragment means off, an empty
flavour string means the shipped wording. And blanked rather than dropped --
settings_store.update merges, so an omitted key leaves what was stored last time
and "I typed the default back in" would store something different from "I changed
nothing".

A custom theme sets a handful of tokens and inherits the rest, and the
inheritance is a CSS fact: tokens.css matches [data-base="shire"] as well as
[data-theme="shire"], so a custom light theme lands on parchment rather than four
light colours on near-black. Values are validated on read rather than on save,
because a theme written straight into the settings table still has to produce a
stylesheet that parses -- a `}` in a value ends the rule and silently breaks
every rule after it. The soft variants are derived from the accent, or a changed
accent leaves focus rings in the old hue and reads as half-working.

/branding.css is a route, not an inline block: an external stylesheet has no HTML
context to escape from. The link carries a content hash, so a save is not left to
the browser's cache, and it is deliberately outside the service worker's precache
list, which is versioned by the release.

The instance name moved off /admin/general rather than being duplicated there.
An upgrade keeps it: the general row is read as a seed exactly while the branding
row has never mentioned the name, which is `key in row` and not `row[key] is
truthy` -- the two read alike would resurrect the old name underneath a cleared
one.

The theme list stops being a hard-coded pair in five places. Every failure mode
in that area is silent, so it is driven under a DOM stub as well as tested.

Jaroslav BenešandClaude Opus 5 ecadb66414 MCP servers, over streamable HTTP
A server is a row with a URL; its tools are discovered by a button and
cached, then offered beside the built-in ones. Written by hand rather than
taken from the reference SDK, because that SDK's transport does its own
connecting -- and the one thing that must not be bypassed is check_url on
every hop. Owning the transport is the point; the framing beside it is the
small part.

Sessions are per call: initialize, initialized, the call, a best-effort
DELETE. Caching one wants an owner, a TTL, eviction, a lock and a shutdown
hook, and the server may expire it under all of that anyway -- ToolContext
is a session-free snapshot precisely so nothing in a tool holds live state.

A server's names and descriptions reach the model as instructions and are
bounded before they do; what it returns is escaped preformatted text, never
markdown. Tools are namespaced per server, so two servers exposing "search"
do not collide and neither shadows a built-in.

Also: a round's calls now run together under a semaphore, results indexed
so each tool turn stays paired with its call, and generation.status names
what is running -- a remote tool is latency-bound, and a silent pause is
what a hang looks like.
