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.

HomerandClaude Opus 5 201281d616 New markup over an old stylesheet
Reported from a desktop browser: a stray close button beside the logo, badly
drawn, and a page that would not scroll. None of it was in the code that was
running -- it was the code the browser had not fetched.

The worker caches /static/ under a cache named for the release while the files
in it carried no version, and a page is fetched network-first. That only ever
worked because the worker used to seize every open tab the instant it installed
and wipe the old cache. 1.1.0 stopped it doing that, rightly -- it was swapping
stylesheets out from under a streaming reply -- and a momentary mismatch became
a permanent one: new markup over the previous release's CSS for as long as the
old worker lived. `.sidebar__close` had no rule there, so `.btn--icon` made it
inline-flex: visible everywhere, placed by nothing.

Every /static/ URL carries the release now, written by `templating.asset` and
precached by `sw.js:versioned` -- both halves, because caches.match compares the
query too and precaching the bare path would cache entries nothing requests.
Self-correcting: updating is enough.

The header was also a brand with a button appended and margin-left:auto doing
the placing, which holds exactly while that button is last. Two slots now: a
brand that shrinks and truncates, and a rail on the trailing edge.

Verified before changing anything: with the current stylesheet the button is
display:none at 1280 and, with thirty chats and forty messages, both scrollers
scroll. The first measurement said the thread did not -- that was
scroll-behavior: smooth reporting where it started.

HomerandClaude Opus 5 28390095a9 A phone, and how much of this could not be used on one
The sidebar was a 280px panel laid over the page below the phone breakpoint,
opened from first paint, with the only control that closed it underneath it --
and that control existed on /chat and on none of the seven other pages carrying
a sidebar, Settings included. It starts closed at that width now, slides, dims
the page behind it, and closes by tapping beside it, by Escape, or by its own
button, which is inside the drawer where it can be reached.

Everything a finger has to hit was 36px, or 28 for renaming a chat, every action
on a message and every panel's close button. Raising --control-h under a coarse
pointer is the only fix that reaches all forty of them, which is what that token
is for. The row and message actions were also hover-only, so on a phone they did
not exist at all.

Installing: the splash and the browser chrome follow the instance's theme rather
than always being Moria's near-black; there are screenshots, so the install
offer is a dialog rather than a one-line bar; a new release no longer takes over
a page somebody is reading; the notification badge is a silhouette rather than a
grey square; and a browser rotating its own subscription no longer ends
notifications for good.

Every request now says it is happening -- nothing did before, so anything slower
than a few milliseconds looked like a click that had not registered.

A chat can be archived. The column has been filtered on in four places since
folders arrived and written by nothing, which is what made it look built.

chat.css may contain media queries. The ban protected the composer toolbar from
being "fixed" with a breakpoint; that guarantee is asserted directly now, and
the old test would have passed a version of the file that wrapped the toolbar
without one.

scripts/shoot.py is the instrument all of this was found with: it renders a page
through TestClient into a real headless browser at a real size and refuses to
run if an asset URL was left pointing at testserver.

Jaroslav BenešandClaude Opus 4.8 1eba860d39 Knowledge, notes, memory and skills, and a harness to make them used
Four places a model can reach for, differing in who writes a record and how it
gets in front of the model.

**Knowledge** is uploaded by a person and searched by the model. It goes through
`services/files.py:prepare` — the same pipeline as a chat attachment — so the
same PDF produces the same text whichever way it arrived, and `Document` carries
the same content columns as `Attachment` for the same reason.

**Notes** are written by the model and edited by you. Too long to inject, so
they are searched.

**Memory** is short facts, and every one of them goes into every request. That
single decision is where the rest of its design comes from: records are capped
short, the block has a budget, there is no search tool because the model is
already looking at them, and they are not shareable — a record about a person is
not content to hand round.

**Skills** are saved procedures. Only the name and description are injected; the
body is fetched when the model decides one applies, which is what makes a
hundred skills affordable. A model may write and revise its own — the safety
story is not a gate but a record: every revision is kept, attributed and
revertible. A model that has just read a hostile page can save a skill that
outlives the conversation, and the honest mitigation is that it is visible and
undoable rather than that it was prevented.

**The harness** is why any of it gets used. A model handed a tools array
ignores it and answers from recall, because nothing in the request suggests
otherwise. `services/harness.py` assembles a preamble from what this chat
actually has: when to reach for each tool, the memories, the skill index.

This is an exception to "system prompts are precedence, not concatenation", and
a deliberate one. That rule governs the three *authored* layers and is
untouched — exactly one still wins. The harness is a different axis: it
describes the machinery rather than the behaviour, nobody authored it, and there
is nothing for it to disagree with. It is prepended to whichever authored prompt
won, in one system message, since several endpoints reject a second.

Supporting changes:

- **Sharing**, in one helper. `visible_to()` is the only definition of who can
  see a library item and every listing and tool goes through it. Sharing grants
  *reading*; two people editing one note with no history and no merge is worse
  than copying it. **Administrators do not bypass this** — they bypass
  permissions elsewhere because an admin can grant themselves those anyway, but
  reading somebody's private notes is a different act.
- **FTS5**, created by `db/migrations.py:ensure_fts` with the triggers an
  external-content index needs. Idempotent, like the column sync beside it.
  Terms are ANDed and then ORed: the caller is usually a model writing a whole
  question, and requiring every word loses the match on one absent term.
- **The attach button is a menu** — file, image, a web page, or a document from
  the library. Attaching a document copies it, because history must not change
  when a document is edited later.
- **A URL fetcher with an SSRF guard.** This server can reach the router, the
  other services on the box and LLeMbas itself, and the address can come from a
  model. Private ranges are refused *after resolution* and redirects are followed
  by hand so every hop is checked. An admin can open it deliberately.
- **Model capabilities split** into protocol support and a toggle per built-in
  tool. Rows predating the split have no `tool_*` keys, and absent counts as on
  when `tools` is on — otherwise an upgrade silently takes web search away from
  every model already configured for it.

Also fixes the test fixture, which built the schema with `create_all` and so ran
against a database without the FTS tables production has; it now runs
`sync_schema`, the same path startup takes.

430 tests, ruff clean.
