Lemmy 0.19 (most of the threadiverse) and Mbin take a private message only
as a ChatMessage and refuse a direct Note. A direct message to one account
elsewhere that writes to us as ChatMessages now goes out as one: to it
alone, without a mention in its text, kept on the post (Post.AsChatMessage)
so the served copy and an edit match. No software name decides it.
Live against Lemmy 0.19: alice's answer to lemmyuser's private message and
another persona's message to lemmyuser arrive (29 checks). A first message
to an account that never wrote to anyone here is still a Note, which they
refuse; G-0008 keeps that open for the owner.

Most of the threadiverse runs Lemmy 0.19, whose release trusts only the
roots its rustls bundles. images/lemmy19 builds 0.19.20 from its tag with
reqwest's rustls-tls-native-roots added, and the pasture runs it as
lemmy19.test. scenarios/lemmy19.sh passes 27 checks with no change to
PrivaPub (communities, threads, comments, votes, its private message,
moderation) and one known gap: 0.19 takes private messages only as
ChatMessage and answers our direct Note 400, like Mbin, so G-0008 now
covers both and waits for the owner.

NodeBB 4.16.1 runs in the pasture on the pasture's Mongo, set up by its
automated setup, with an API token written where NodeBB keeps them.
scenarios/nodebb.sh passes its 23 checks with no change to PrivaPub: a
category followed and its topic as a titled thread, replies both ways, a
follow of alice and her post there, votes both ways, an edit and a
deletion, a chat both ways, the unfollow and statistics.
NodeBB never federates a topic's lock, and its API follows an account
elsewhere only when named by its handle; both are in docs/INTEROP.md.

Mbin 1.10.1 runs in the pasture (its image, a messenger worker, a RabbitMQ
of its own, its API limits raised), and peers/mbin_token.py gets mbuser's
token through the authorization-code flow. scenarios/mbin.sh: 24 checks and
one known gap, magazines both ways, titled threads, a Note to a magazine as
a microblog post, comments, favourites and upvotes both ways, a moderator's
lock, unlock and removal, the unfollow and statistics.
What it showed:
- Mbin sends a magazine's threads to its subscribers as the author's Create,
the magazine as its audience, never announced. A post whose group is
followed here and lives on the post's own server is now kept as if
announced; the same from another server is not.
- A moderator's lock is a bare Lock (and Undo{Lock}): LockHandler takes it
from the post's own server only.
- Mbin takes private messages only as ChatMessage and its actors say
nothing about it; PrivaPub never decides by a server's software, so this
stays open as G-0008 for the owner.

PieFed 1.7.17 (dockurr's image of the release) runs in the pasture with its
Celery worker on the shared Postgres and Redis, and scenarios/piefed.sh
checks it both ways: 29 checks, communities, titled threads, comments, votes
up and down, a community poll and a vote in it, private messages, a
moderator's lock, unlock and removal, the unfollow and statistics.
What it showed:
- PieFed sends a community's announces to the inbox of the Application at a
peer's root (as Lemmy serves its site actor) and to /inbox otherwise.
PrivaPub answered 404 at its root, so every announce went to an /inbox it
does not have. The instance actor now answers at / for ActivityPub
requests, unsigned under SecureMode as at its own address.
- PieFed keeps serving a thread its moderator removed, so the removal could
never be checked against the post's origin. A community on the post's own
server now speaks for it; one elsewhere still waits for the origin to say
the post is gone.

Two owner decisions of 2026-10-05, recorded in the roadmap.
Replies passed on ("the fediverse is broken without"): a public or unlisted
reply from another server to a persona's public, unlisted or followers-only
post goes on to the persona's followers as its author's server sent it, as
Mastodon forwards it, never to the replier's own server, never for a
local-only or group post; its edit and deletion follow. Only an activity its
own actor delivered is passed on (Arrival.Raw), so nothing forwarded is
forwarded again. The town checks it as relay.reply cells (specs/relay-five:
882 checks pass); Mastodon takes a passed-on activity only with an LD
signature, which GoToSocial and Akkoma don't add, and the checker knows it.
Events: a persona joins another server's event with a Join and leaves it with
a Leave, both to the organiser only, through
POST /api/privapub/v1/statuses/:id/join|leave; the organiser's Accept or
Reject is routed by our join id and shows as privapub.event.participation.
Events by invitation or taken on another site are refused before anything
is sent. Mobilizon's scenario joins and leaves an event (28 checks) and keeps
one for decePubClient's e2e.

Funkwhale 2.0.11: the API, a Celery worker with its beat and the front's nginx sharing one volume, on the shared Postgres
and Redis, trusting the pasture's CA through REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE; fwuser and its OAuth token made by its own tools.
scenarios/funkwhale.sh passes its 16 checks: alice follows a channel, a track uploaded to it arrives as Audio with its
file and duration, its deletion reaches PrivaPub, the unfollow, statistics.

A remote post's canReply, canLike and canAnnounce (with the older always and approvalRequired) are kept beside
canQuote and judged for each persona: let in at once when the rule names the public, the persona, the author's
followers while it follows the author, or the accounts the author follows while the author follows it; asked first
when only the manual list names it; refused (422) otherwise. Asked first, a ReplyRequest, LikeRequest or
AnnounceRequest with the interaction as its instrument goes to the author alone, and the interaction waits
(privapub.approval: pending). The author's Accept brings an authorization, verified on the author's origin as naming the
interaction and the post; the reply then goes out with replyAuthorization, the boost with announceAuthorization, the
like with likeAuthorization. A Reject leaves the reply ours alone and takes a like or a boost back. As a third party, a
reply a policy does not let in at once is kept only with an authorization that verifies. Clients see the rules as
GoToSocial's interaction_policy.
Checked live against GoToSocial 0.22.1: the scenario's nine new checks pass (64 in all), a reply and a like approved
through its interaction requests and a boost refused.

Application actor publishes the agenda, and scenarios/gancio.sh passes its 17 checks with no change to PrivaPub: the

Caddy's CA through the bundle mounted over certifi's and castore's files (hackney trusts only those), with geocoding
pointed at a closed local port. scenarios/mobilizon.sh passes its 23 checks: alice follows a group; the event its
organiser makes arrives as an Event with its start, end and located place; comments both ways; the organiser's edit,
closing the comments (PrivaPub then refuses a reply) and deletes of a comment and the event; a group post with its
title; the unfollow; statistics. An event made through Mobilizon's API without options has its comments closed, so
the scenario opens them. No RSVP yet.

Friendica 2026.05 on the shared MySQL and Redis, with its worker daemon as a sidecar. friendica_settle repairs what
its install leaves: the system user has no name, so the system account that signs its fetches is never made; the web
container cannot see the sidecar's daemon, so a queued job waits for the five-minute cron unless the daemon is
declared running; its log needs a file and debugging on. Accounts are saved through its API with locked=0 (a number:
"true" reads as 0, unlocked), which makes them soapbox pages that take followers without following back, and each
one's outbox is read once: a Follow that reaches an account Friendica has not cached makes it fetch the account from
itself, signed, and checking that signature recursed for five minutes, holding PrivaPub's first follow past its timeout.
scenarios/friendica.sh passes its 25 checks from a clean install: follows and unfollows, posts (a titled one with its
title), comments, likes, Friendica's dislike as a downvote, boosts, edits (through its web editor: its Mastodon API
never federates one) and deletes, both ways.
The town gets a Friendica driver (HTTP Basic, its MySQL read through mysql_json, edits in the web editor, no bookmark
on a reply) and specs/friendica-pair.json, which passes its 275 checks. On the way:
- the checker knows Friendica's thread model: a non-public reply reaches an account only under posts it holds, and a
Friendica account's non-public reply in a thread another server owns reaches nobody else there;
- the seeder answers a follow request the target still holds whatever the follower's server says: Friendica reports a
follow of someone already following its account as made at once (and shows that persona's followers-only posts
while a locked persona still holds the request);
- the selftest skips polls where a platform has none; the shared MySQL helpers move to peers/shared.sh.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01LsXgEaXee4GCU1hwYgPJXw
A thread's server passes on what happens in it, signed with its own key: Mastodon forwards the replies to its
accounts' posts and their deletions, Friendica every activity in its threads. PrivaPub answered them 401, which also
tells a sender its signature failed. Now they get 202 and nothing in them is believed: a forwarded Create or Update is
taken as its object reads at the actor's origin, a Delete of a public or unlisted copy once that origin answers 404 or
410 (RemoteActorService.IsGone; FederationHttp remembers the status of a refusal), anything else is let go, and our own
activities coming back are ignored. A forwarded copy has its own dedupe key, so one that failed never hides the
author's own delivery.
A reply in the thread of someone followed here is kept, as Mastodon keeps them. Mastodon delivers a reply to the
followers of the account it answers; PrivaPub dropped those as unaddressed, which the pasture showed: the outsider's
reply its Mastodon scenario said was never delivered had been, and was thrown away.

Pixelfed 0.14.4 (FrankenPHP with Horizon and the scheduler, on the shared
Postgres and Redis) and WordPress 6 with ActivityPub 9.3.1 (on a new shared
MySQL, WP-Cron run by a sidecar) are peers now, each with its scenario:
Pixelfed 26 checks (photos both ways with alt text, its place arriving as
Rome with its coordinates, comments, likes, a boost, edits and deletes),
WordPress 17 (an Article with its title, our reply, like and boost kept as
comments of their kinds, its edit and removal). Pixelfed has a town driver
and a pair spec: 145 checks pass, 2 expected (G-0007).
What they showed: Pixelfed names our posts by their page (fixed in
26dac40); on PostgreSQL its migration making caption nullable never runs,
so every remote boost failed (the pasture applies it); it files a DM it
fetches as followers-only (G-0007, upstream); Passport refuses a token
whose user id equals its client's id. WordPress signs with RFC 9421
first, which PrivaPub now verifies (c5a69d2).

Lemmy's moderation reached PrivaPub only as removals. Now a remote
community's lock and ban, relayed in its Announce, apply too:
- a lock (Announce{Lock}, or commentsEnabled false on the post) refuses
replies to the thread, ours included, until Undo{Lock}; statuses say so
in privapub.locked;
- a ban of a persona (Announce{Block} with the community as target, or the
moderator's own Block sent straight to us, which is the community's ban
and never the moderator's block of the persona) shows as blocked_by on
the community and refuses the persona's posts and replies there until
the Undo.
The Lemmy scenario's removal was an expected failure only because it gave
up before Lemmy's 30-second batch; it now waits, and checks the lock and
the ban live (Lemmy refuses a lock or an unban without a reason): 29
checks, none expected to fail. G-0003 and G-0006 are closed.

GoToSocial's and Mastodon's scenarios passed once on a fresh pasture only:
their locked follows ended followed, so a second run found no request to
reject, and Mastodon's ended with mastouser blocking alice_masto, so every
follow after it was rejected. Each now unfollows first, and Mastodon's
undoes its block (checking that its Undo{Block} reaches our blocked_by) and
its lock; a run cut short is undone at the start.
Mastodon's scenario also checks the thread backfill live: a reply by an
account nobody here follows is never delivered, and joins the thread once
alice_masto opens it, read from Mastodon's FEP-7888 context.
interop.sh keeps the results of the peers it does not run, so the report
merges a partial rerun. All seven scenarios: 276 pass, 0 fail, 1 expected
(Lemmy moderation, P7).

Lemmy turns an upvote into a downvote with a Dislike alone (and back with a
Like), so the like stayed counted next to the downvote. Now an account has
one vote on a post: a Dislike takes its like away, a Like its downvote.
The Lemmy scenario's relayed votes were never failing for that reason only:
Lemmy 1.0 sends what it queued every 30 seconds, and the check gave up after
30. It waits a minute now, and both votes are plain checks: 22 pass, the
moderator's removal stays an expected failure (P7).

PeerTube 8.3.1 runs on the shared Postgres and Redis, transcoding off. Its
scenario passes 24 checks: a persona follows a channel; a new video comes as
the channel's Announce and reaches the persona's home as a boost, playable
through the media proxy with byte ranges; comments both ways thread; a like
and its undo count; renaming and deletion arrive; the unfollow; statistics.
The town's seeder also takes reruns on the same accounts in its stride: a
Lemmy community already made is found, a circle member already approved
asks nothing again.

Inbound Block was dropped as an unknown type (the pasture's last
Mastodon expected failure, G-0002). Now, as Mastodon does it: the
follows between the blocker and the persona end here too (nothing is
sent back; the blocker already ended its side), the blocker's posts and
notifications are hidden from the persona and kept out of its home, the
persona's posts are no longer addressed to the blocker by mention or
reply, and the relationship says blocked_by. Undo{Block} lifts it. The
block is kept in BlockedBy, unique per persona and blocker.
The Mastodon scenario checks blocked_by instead of expecting a failure.

- FEDERATION.md:
- It said only GoToSocial was tested live. It now lists all six pasture peers, run with signed fetches required as
production runs, and what is checked both ways.
- FEP-044f, FEP-9967, FEP-c0e0 and FEP-5feb moved from planned to supported.
- indexable and discoverable are described as the settings they are.
- ROADMAP: v1.19.1 deployed and verified, v1.20.0 (phase 4).
- Pasture, Akkoma: its like and boost count gets two minutes. In the final clean pass, all six peers with SecureMode on
gave 245 passed, 1 failed, 4 expected. The failure was this count, which Akkoma's job queue was slow to update
under the load of six peers; two reruns gave 44/44.

Owner decision 2026-10-04: SecureMode on once the pasture passes with it.
- Both clean pasture passes were run over all six peers:
- normally: 246 passed, 0 failed;
- with Federation__SecureMode=true: every federation check passed. The only failures were four checks expecting an
unsigned GET to get 404 or 410 where SecureMode answers 401. Those checks now go through `unserved` and
`gone_unsigned` (lib/interop.sh), which expect 401 when SecureMode is on.
- Circle posts now reach their member on GoToSocial and Mastodon, and survive Mastodon's signed refetch, as does a
followers-only post. The GoToSocial expected failure is gone.
- appsettings.Production.json turns SecureMode on.
- The deploy now checks that an unsigned GET of @thepra answers 401 and that a browser is redirected. It reads
@thepra's discoverability through the Mastodon API, since the actor is no longer readable unsigned.
- docs/INTEROP.md (Mastodon, GoToSocial), CLAUDE.md and ROADMAP updated.

Owner decision 2026-10-04: fix the account privacy findings.
- Sign-in. Every failure answers "That username and password do not match." after the same work: an unknown login
is hashed against a decoy, and the comparison is constant-time. "Banned" is told only to someone who gave the right
password. This covers /clientapi/user/login, /invitation/login and /oauth/login.
- Recovery.
- Every request answers the same sentence and queues a SendRecovery job, whether or not the account exists or has an
email. The lookup, the code and SMTP move to RecoveryJob, so neither the answer nor its timing says anything.
- Codes are kept only as a SHA-256 hash, for one hour. Migration _011 drops the plaintext ones, which never expired.
- A recovered password ends every session of the root. RootSessions sets CredentialsChangedAt, which JwtEvents
checks against the JWT's issue time, now stamped as nbf, and revokes each persona's OAuth tokens and authorizations.
- Deleting a root (RootRemoval: the admin route, or the restored self-delete at /clientapi/user/delete, which asks for
the password).
- Its sessions end.
- Each persona and each group it owns sends Delete{Actor} to its followers, its members and the accounts it follows.
- The personas' posts are emptied.
- /peasants/{name} answers 410 with a Tombstone (formerType Person or Group), as do its inbox and WebFinger, through
LocalActorService.Gone. The names stay reserved.
- The root keeps only a unique `deleted-{id}` name; the second deletion on an instance used to collide on
"Deleted user".
Also, from phase 2's pasture: GoToSocial files a circle post like a DM and shows it only to accounts it mentions. Each
member's copy, and a member's refetch, now also mentions that member silently. The GoToSocial scenario checks circle
posts in conversations, like DMs, and they pass there now, as on Mastodon.
657 tests pass.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01ELjqpznMFMNrJoJUj6K5p2
Circles (owner decision 2026-10-04: fix them for compatibility):
- Mastodon 4.7 and GoToSocial drop a post that names none of their accounts, and a circle post named only the circle
and its /flock. OutboxPublisher.Publish now sends each member a copy that also names that member in `cc`, on the
activity and on the object, and names no other member. The Create, every Update (edit, poll, quote approval, policy,
through the new PublishUpdate) and the Delete (StatusService.Remove now uses Publish) all go that way.
- UpdateOf renders with the post's group, so an Update keeps a circle post's `audience` and a community post's `Page`
and title.
- A reply to a circle post stays in the circle, whichever client wrote it.
- A circle post can no longer quote a post that needs permission: asking would show the circle post to its author.
Posts that are not public, on refetch (SignedFetchAuthorizer.MayRead):
- Followers-only, direct and circle posts are served to a signed request from someone they were for, or from the
instance actor of a server where one of them lives. That is a follower or an addressed account, an addressed
account, or a member. Everyone else still gets 404.
- Once deleted they answer those readers 410. Mastodon deletes its copy when a refetch answers 404.
- A circle refetch names the requesting member, or the members on the requesting server, as the delivered copy did.
- /grunts/create-{id} serves the same.
- /peasants/{name}/whispers/{id}, a DM's `context`, was never routed. It is now the conversation's posts, for its
participants only.
SecureMode lets browsers through to the redirect to the public page, instead of answering them 401.
653 tests pass.

Sharkey 2025.4.7 is the Misskey peer under another name, image, database, Redis db and
home. Its scenario is Misskey's plus edits both ways and the FEP-e232 quote tag: 40 checks
pass.
Akkoma 3.20.1 publishes no image, so tools/pasture/images/akkoma installs its OTP
release, pinned by checksum, and appends Caddy's CA to the CA bundles the release ships.
Its scenario has 44 checks, which pass three runs in a row:
- follows, posts, CW, followers-only posts and the published time;
- replies, likes, boosts and their undos;
- EmojiReact both ways and withdrawn;
- DMs, polls, quotes, media, edits with history and deletes, both ways;
- unfollow, block, unblock and statistics.
The two bugs, both fixed:
- Followers-only posts arrived as DMs on Pleroma and Akkoma. They call a post private
only if an address in `to` contains "/followers" or its cc is not empty. Ours is
/groupies, and a post mentioning nobody had an empty cc. The followers collection is now
named in cc as well, which tells nobody anything new.
- Akkoma's open polls showed as ended and refused votes. Akkoma carries an open poll's
end in `closed` and sends no `endTime`. A `closed` in the future is now read as the end.
Neither of these is a PrivaPub bug:
- Akkoma's Linkify never takes @user@host.test for a mention, so its DM addresses alice
with to[].
- Its API never reports a remote blocker as blocked_by, so the block is read from its
database.
Also in this commit:
- The rate limits are configuration (RateLimits: AccountsPerMinute, InboxBurst,
InboxPerTenSeconds), with the old values as defaults. The pasture raises the accounts
limit, which back-to-back runs from one address had hit.
- A new Lemmy never sends what it queued for a server before it started that server's
send worker, so the scenario waits for the worker before its first follow.
All six peers in one clean pass: GoToSocial 54 (+1 expected), Mastodon 49 (+2), Misskey
35, Sharkey 40, Akkoma 44, and Lemmy 20 (+3) once the worker wait was added. 642 tests
pass.

peers/lemmy.sh runs the Lemmy 1.0.0-beta.2 backend on the shared Postgres. It trusts
Caddy's CA through SSL_CERT_FILE and reaches the pasture through
DANGER_FEDERATION_ALLOW_LOCAL_IP. Lemmy 0.19 cannot join: its rustls trusts only its
bundled roots. LEMMY_LOG sets RUST_LOG.
scenarios/lemmy.sh drives Lemmy through its v4 API. 20 checks pass, three runs in a row:
- communities both ways;
- a titled thread each way, and alice's mention of a Lemmy community becoming a thread
there;
- the Lemmy community's announce reaching alice's home;
- comments both ways and alice's like as an upvote;
- private messages both ways;
- statistics.
Two expected failures: votes, which Lemmy sends only through the community as
Announce{Like|Dislike}, and a moderator's removal. Both belong to P7.
What it showed, in docs/INTEROP.md:
- Lemmy 1.0 keeps its user's thread in a remote community pending until the community
announces it back. It clears the flag before answering that echo 400 ("Object is not
remote"). Leaving the author's server out of the Announce, as tried here, left every
such thread pending, so GroupDistributor now says why the echo stays.
- Every bare Announce{object} is answered 400, as Lemmy answers its own compatibility
Announce(Page).

peers/misskey.sh runs Misskey on the shared Postgres and Redis. Its config is generated with
the pasture's private networks allowed and a setup password, it trusts Caddy's CA through
NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS, and the first account it makes is the scenario's user. A new Misskey
federates with nobody, so the setup also turns federation on.
scenarios/misskey.sh adds 35 checks, all passing, as listed in docs/INTEROP.md. They cover
posts, CW, MFM source, replies, unicode reactions both ways and their withdrawal, likes as
reactions, legacy quotes both ways, polls, specified notes, media, deletes, unfollow,
block and statistics. MISSKEY_NAME and MISSKEY_IMAGE are there so Sharkey can reuse the peer.

- gtsuser's edit arrives with edited_at and two history entries;
- unlike and unboost both ways;

- gtsuser's request to join a circle waits for the owner and is approved, and the
circle post is never served unsigned;
- a locked persona holds gtsuser's follow, rejects it, then authorizes it;
- the deploy's Mastodon smoke check passes, signed in.
54 checks passed, three runs in a row. The circle post reaching gtsuser is an expected
failure: GoToSocial keeps no post addressed only to a collection it does not know.
It found a bug. An edit made within the second the post was published carries GoToSocial's
whole-second updated == published, and IsEdit wanted strictly newer, so the edit was taken
as a refresh and lost. A first edit now also counts when it is no older and the text,
warning or title actually changed. A bare refresh still never makes a revision.

peers/mastodon.sh runs Mastodon's web and sidekiq containers on a shared Postgres and Redis
(peers/shared.sh). They trust Caddy's CA through SSL_CERT_FILE and reach private addresses
through ALLOWED_PRIVATE_ADDRESSES. Its users and tokens come from tootctl and rails runner.
scenarios/mastodon.sh adds 49 checks, as listed in docs/INTEROP.md: follows, posts,
replies, likes and boosts with undos, DMs, polls, FEP-044f quotes both ways, media through
the proxy, edits, deletes, locked follows, a circle request, reports, blocks and statistics.
Two are expected failures:
- inbound Block (P7);
- circle posts. Mastodon 4.7 loses the recipient of deliveries to its numeric
/ap/users/<id>/inbox and then drops a post that names no local account. The fix on our
side changes what a circle reveals, so it waits for the owner.
GoToSocial and Mastodon together: 86 passed, 0 failed.
The pasture now copies Caddy's root certificate reliably, readable by the peers, and
rebuilds the bundle each time. The CA directory is mounted shared (:z), because a private
:Z label locks out every container but the last. pfetch reaches PrivaPub's own https URIs
through Caddy. PRIVAPUB_ENV passes settings to PrivaPub, which scenarios/crawler.sh uses to
check the opt-in crawler against Mastodon: it visits, describes and reads the peers list.

tools/pasture/run.sh up [peer...] | down | logs | ps and interop.sh [peer...] are now built
from parts:
- lib/pasture.sh: network, Caddy with its CA in a volume and copied to .ca/root.crt, Mongo,
PrivaPub;
- peers/<name>.sh: each peer's <name>_up;
- lib/interop.sh: ok, ko, and xf for checks expected to fail until a later phase;
privapub_token <persona>, which gives each peer its own persona under one root; and
stats_check;
- scenarios/<name>.sh: each peer's checks.
GoToSocial is pinned at 0.22.1, the version the 33 checks were proven on. Its scenario
gains four statistics checks:
- the admin statistics describe gts.test as gotosocial;
- they count inbound and outbound traffic;
- they name no account.
37/37 passed three runs in a row.
