- Every network call returns a result whatever fails, not only the exceptions .NET usually throws: on Android the HTTPS client is the platform's own stack, and a network switch mid-request throws others. The outside test as a whole cannot throw; sharing the link falls back to copying it. A last guard (the UI thread, unobserved tasks, Android's raiser) writes errors.log in the app folder and keeps the app running; nothing is sent. - On mobile data the app no longer probes the operator's gateway as if it were a home router: the router card says there is none, a private address on the phone with another public one is the operator's address sharing (CGNAT) and is drawn as its shared exit, the public IPv4 is held by that exit, and the provider's notes are labelled as being about its home lines. These were "router not answering" and "can't tell" on an Iliad phone. - The route's routers appear as stops on the path's wires: the operator's internal ones before its exit, the public ones with their network number towards the internet. - The download speed is timed after the first quarter of the sample, once the connection has ramped up; the path no longer shows the address block's registry country. - Two new strings, drafted in every language.

# CLAUDE.md — MeWeb quick reference
|
|
|
|
Read `AGENT.md` first and cite `PATTERNS.md` for code rules. This file holds commands, the map and the pitfalls.
|
|
|
|
## Commands
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
dotnet build src/MeWeb.Desktop/MeWeb.Desktop.csproj
|
|
dotnet run --project src/MeWeb.Desktop
|
|
dotnet run --project src/MeWeb.Server # ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://127.0.0.1:5481
|
|
dotnet run tools/setup.cs -- --group jdk # pinned JDK 21 into tools/jdk
|
|
dotnet run tools/setup.cs -- --group packaging # pinned nfpm into tools/packaging
|
|
dotnet build src/MeWeb.Android/MeWeb.Android.csproj \
|
|
-p:JavaSdkDirectory=$PWD/tools/jdk/linux-x64/jdk-21.0.12+8 -p:AndroidSdkDirectory=$HOME/Android/Sdk
|
|
dotnet run --project tools/Screenshots -- dist/screenshots [en,it,...]

|
|
dotnet run tools/strings.cs -- import fr fr.json # one language's drafts: {"Key": "…"}
|
|
dotnet run tools/knowledge.cs # provider map -> artifacts/knowledge/ip2asn.bin
|
|
dotnet run tools/languages.cs # regenerate data/languages.json from CLDR
|
|
dotnet publish src/MeWeb.Desktop -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained -p:PublishSingleFile=true \
|
|
-p:IncludeNativeLibrariesForSelfExtract=true -p:EnableCompressionInSingleFile=true
|
|
dotnet publish src/MeWeb.Desktop -c Release -r osx-arm64 --self-contained
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The Android workload installs into the user SDK (`dotnet workload install android`); the system SDK in `/opt/dotnet`
|
|
is root-owned, so CI uses the runner user's own `~/.dotnet` (passolo's `tools/release.sh` pattern).
|
|
|
|
## Repository, CI and the variables they read
|
|
|
|
| Name | Where | What |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `GITEA_URL` | shell, optional | Gitea base URL for `tools/gitea/*.sh`; default `https://git.thepra.dev` |
|
|
| `GITEA_ORG` | shell, optional | organisation; default `Arasaka` |
|
|
| `GITEA_REPO` | shell, optional | repository for `set_secret.sh`; default `MeWeb` |
|
|
| (git credential store) | `~/.git-credentials` | the only Gitea authentication the scripts use: `git credential fill` for `git.thepra.dev` |
|
|
| `MEWEB_KEYSTORE_B64` | Actions secret | the Android keystore, base64 (`tools/gitea/set_secret.sh`) |
|
|
| `MEWEB_KEYSTORE_PASS` | Actions secret | its password (store and key share it), alias `meweb` |
|
|
| `GITEA_TOKEN` | Actions, automatic | the job token; `release.sh` uses it as `RELEASE_TOKEN` to create the release and attach files |
|
|
| `VERSION`, `COMMIT` | job env | written by `.gitea/scripts/prepare.sh` from `Directory.Build.props` and the commit |
|
|
| `MEWEB_KEYSTORE` | release step | a temporary file in `$RUNNER_TEMP` decoded by `.gitea/scripts/android.sh`, removed on exit |
|
|
|
|
`build.yml` runs on every push to `master`; `release.yml` on a `v*` tag (publishes the Gitea release) or by hand
|
|
(`publish: false` builds every platform and deploys the server only). Both run on the Arasaka org runner `nuvola`,
|
|
user `gitea-runner`, home `/var/lib/gitea-runner`: `tools/sdk.sh` installs the SDK from `global.json` into its
|
|
`~/.dotnet` (the system SDK in `/opt/dotnet` is older and root-owned), and the JDK, nfpm and the Android SDK are
|
|
cached in `~/.cache/meweb`. There is deliberately no `pull_request` trigger: the runner is the production box.
|
|
|
|
The server's one-time root setup is `deploy/max/setup.sh` (user `meweb`, `/var/www/meweb.arasaka.software`,
|
|
`/etc/meweb/meweb.env`, the unit, the runner's sudoers line, the certificate, nginx), run on the box through
|
|
`arasaka.software`'s `tools/max/run.sh`.
|
|
|
|
The Android release key: alias `meweb`, certificate SHA-256
|
|
`5f52cff4f52f4e0b6da6cd044bfceaf78d1d42db24f2470602db7f19cbfdf846`. Never regenerate it.
|
|
|
|
## Map
|
|
|
|
| Path | What |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `src/MeWeb.Shared` | `Endpoints.cs` (routes and hosts), wire contracts, `MeWebJsonContext`, generated `BuildInfo` |
|
|
| `src/MeWeb.Core` | the checks, no UI: `Net/` (address kinds, local network, TTL route, STUN, the probe's `Answerer`, DNS, speed, the device), `Router/` (UPnP IGD, NAT-PMP, PCP; `PortMapper` opens and removes mappings, `Leftovers` remembers them across a crash), `Mail/` (port 25, reverse name, blocklists through the user's resolver), `Knowledge/` (provider map and profiles), `History/` (checks, shared submissions), `Checks/` (`CheckRunner`, `Verdicts`, `Reach`, `Uses`, `ServerProbe`, `SharePayload`) |
|
|
| `src/MeWeb.App` | Avalonia views and view models, `Services/Localizer.cs` (+ `{s:Tr Key}`), `Strings/<code>.json`, `Resources/Colors.axaml`; `Resources/Icons.axaml` (Lucide, 24 units, for cards and lists) and `Resources/Art.axaml` (the path's drawings, 48 units: `Art<Name>Base`, up to three `Beat`s that pulse in turn while the step is checked and take its verdict colour, and a `Spin` for the globe). The path is a vertical zig-zag of `PathNodeViewModel`s, and the same nodes carry the result cards (`Cards`, regrouped by `MainViewModel.Home`), so a step in the path and its group of cards are one object |
|
|
| `src/MeWeb.Desktop` | desktop head (`meweb` executable), Windows manifest |
|
|
| `src/MeWeb.Android` | Android head (`software.arasaka.meweb`), resources, manifest |
|
|
| `src/MeWeb.Server` | `meweb.arasaka.software`: `/api/info`, `/api/ip`, the download page `/` and `/privacy` (en, it), `/download/{platform}` from the latest Gitea release, the probe (`/api/probe/ticket`, `/api/probe/{id}`) and shared findings (`/api/share`, files under `/var/lib/meweb/shares`, swept after `KeepDays`) |
|
|
| `data/languages.json` | 113 languages: code, autonym, English name, `rtl`, `reviewed` or `draft` |
|
|
| `data/isps/*.json` | provider profiles: AS numbers, and per fact a value, who said it (`basis`), the source URL and the month |
|
|
| `tools/knowledge.cs` | downloads iptoasn's `ip2asn-combined.tsv.gz` (cached in `tools/cache`, 12 h) and writes the brotli table `artifacts/knowledge/ip2asn.bin` (~2 MB), embedded by `MeWeb.Core` when present; `tools/release.cs` runs it before every app build |
|
|
| `tools/setup.cs` + `setup.json` | pinned build tools |
|
|
| `tools/Screenshots` | headless renders of every view in every language |
|
|
| `branding/` | the icon (SVG source, PNG, ICO) |
|
|
|
|
## Pitfalls
|
|
|
|
- **A TTL ping needs an empty payload off-root.** .NET on Linux falls back to the `ping` utility without
|
|
`CAP_NET_RAW` and refuses any custom buffer ("Unable to send custom ping payload"); `SendPingAsync(target, timeout, [],
|
|
new PingOptions(ttl, false))` works and reports `TimeExceeded` with the hop's address.
|
|
- **A 100.64.x.x hop is not proof of CGNAT.** The owner's Dimensione line has a public IPv4 on the FRITZ!Box and still
|
|
shows `100.64.255.255` as hop 2. Only the router's own WAN address compared with the echo decides; hops are a hint.
|
|
- **Routers answer the SSDP search they don't implement.** The FRITZ!Box 5530 answers an IGD:2 search while describing
|
|
itself as IGD:1; the version comes from the description's `deviceType`. Its PCP answers `NOT_AUTHORIZED` (2).
|
|
- **`HeadlessUnitTestSession.Dispatch` builds a fresh `Application` each call**, and `AttachDeveloperTools` throws the
|
|
second time: the screenshot tool does the real check and every shot inside one `Dispatch`.
|
|
- **Fluent's `Expander` paints its header from resources** (`ExpanderHeaderBackground`, …), not from `Background`; the
|
|
`Expander.explain` style overrides them in `Style.Resources`.
|
|
- **The probe never trusts the client for a target.** A ticket is bound to the address the server saw, single use,
|
|
60 s; the run refuses any other caller address, private and CGNAT space, and `Probe:Refuse` (the box's own
|
|
addresses, so the owner cannot probe himself from home). `Probe__AllowPrivate=true` exists for a local server only.
|
|
- **Ask the outside STUN server first.** When `stun.meweb` is the caller's own public address (the owner's line), the
|
|
first binding hairpins inside the FRITZ!Box with the port preserved and the next destination reuses that mapping,
|
|
so the order `stun.nextcloud.com` then `stun.meweb` is what reads a symmetric NAT as hard.
|
|
- **Shared findings are files, not Mongo.** The box's Mongo has auth on and me-web? has no user there; a file per
|
|
submission under the unit's `StateDirectory`, with only the delete token's SHA-256, needs no credentials.
|
|
- **An address inside right-to-left text reorders around `→`.** `Texts.Isolate` wraps every literal value in U+2068/U+2069.
|
|
- **On mobile data there is no router of the user's.** Android reports a gateway for the cellular link, so
|
|
`CheckRunner` skips the router protocols on a mobile link, and a private or 100.64 address on the device with a
|
|
different public echo is the operator's NAT (`NatKind.Shared`); before 0.4 a phone on Iliad read "router not
|
|
answering" and "can't tell" everywhere downstream. Provider profiles describe home lines, so on mobile the card says so.
|
|
- **The route is drawn, never trusted.** `Route.Trace` (8 TTLs) feeds the path's wires: hops after the first, up to
|
|
the first public one, sit before the shared exit or the provider; public ones carry their AS number into the
|
|
internet; unanswered runs collapse to "…". The NAT verdict never reads them (see the 100.64 pitfall).
|
|
- **Download speed is timed after the first quarter of the sample**, once TCP has ramped up: on mobile the sample is
|
|
2 MB and the whole-transfer figure was mostly the ramp.
|
|
- **A Lucide icon joined from several SVG elements must start each one with an absolute `M`.** A leading `m` is
|
|
absolute only as a path's first command; joined after another element it becomes relative and draws outside the box.
|
|
The shield and the radio tower did that until 0.3; check new geometry by walking its points against 24 (or 48).
|
|
- **On Android `GC.GetGCMemoryInfo().TotalAvailableMemoryBytes` is the runtime's limit, not the RAM** (0.1 GB on a
|
|
phone with several): `AndroidPlatform` reads `ActivityManager.MemoryInfo.TotalMem`, Linux `/proc/meminfo`.
|
|
- **`DriveInfo` on Unix takes any path** (it calls `statvfs`): pass the app's folder, not `/`, or Android reads the
|
|
read-only root and reports no free disk at all.
|
|
- **An IPv6 address only wraps at a colon if it is allowed to**: the path's detail lines put U+200B after each colon;
|
|
they are plain `TextBlock`s for that reason, so a copy never carries the invisible character (the cards' values,
|
|
which are selectable, stay untouched).
|
|
|
|
- **Avalonia 12 Android head:** `[Application] MainApplication : AvaloniaAndroidApplication<App>` plus a non-generic
|
|
`AvaloniaMainActivity`; the main view comes through `IActivityApplicationLifetime.MainViewFactory`, checked before
|
|
`ISingleViewApplicationLifetime`.
|
|
- **`ApplicationVersion` must be an integer**: computed from `Version` through separate `VersionMajor/Minor/Patch`
|
|
properties; one nested property function left it unevaluated (`XA0003`).
|
|
- **A headless Avalonia session does not end on its own** while the pulse animation runs: the screenshot tool calls
|
|
`Environment.Exit(0)` after dispatching.
|
|
- **Launchers and the Android 12 splash crop the icon to their own shape.** The launcher icon is the adaptive
|
|
`mipmap-anydpi-v26/icon.xml` (background colour, `drawable/icon_foreground.xml`, `drawable/icon_monochrome.xml` for
|
|
themed icons), and the splash uses the same foreground. Both vectors hold `branding/meweb.svg`'s drawing scaled into
|
|
the central 66 of 108 units around its smallest enclosing circle; a change to the drawing goes into all three files.
|
|
The plain `mipmap-xxxhdpi/icon.png` is only for Android 7.x.
|
|
- **The macOS apphost is ad-hoc signed by the .NET 10 SDK even on Linux** (`LC_CODE_SIGNATURE` present); Apple
|
|
Silicon refuses unsigned arm64 code, so never strip it.
|
|
- **The Windows single-file publish drops native `.pdb` files beside the exe**; only `meweb.exe` ships.
