DomainBlock (domain, severity, reject-media, public and private comment)
covers the domain and its subdomains. Admins manage them under
/clientapi/admin/domainblocks/{list,insert,delete}; the set is kept in
memory, reloaded on every change and at most five minutes stale.
A suspended domain is refused by FederationHttp.IsAllowed, so nothing is
fetched from it and no job delivers to it, and the inbox drops its
activities with a 202 before fetching any key. Reject-media strips the
attachments of posts from that domain. Silence is recorded for the
timelines and notifications that arrive in P1.2.

The single serial DeliveryWorker is replaced by Infrastructure/Jobs:
- Job rows are leased with one FindOneAndUpdate (oldest RunAt first, a
two-minute lease) and a reaper returns expired leases every 30 s;
- enqueueing wakes the workers, which otherwise poll every five seconds;
- delivery runs eight at a time with at most two per host, so a slow or
dead server holds two slots, not the queue;
- a failure waits n^4 + 15 + jitter seconds (Mastodon's curve) for up to
16 attempts; a 4xx other than 408/429 is final, a 429 honours
Retry-After;
- RemoteInstance is a per-host circuit breaker: ten consecutive failures
quarantine a host for an hour, doubling to a week, and its jobs wait
without spending attempts;
- a delivery is queued once per activity and inbox (unique DedupeKey), and
finished jobs expire after seven days (TTL on FinishedAt).
Migration _004 moves pending Delivery rows into jobs and marks them
abandoned, so a rollback to the old worker cannot send them twice.

Infrastructure/Data/Indexes runs at every start, after the migrations:
unique on Post/DmPost ObjectURI, ForeignAvatar ActorURI, the Follower
triple, RootToAvatar, RootUser UserName and ReservedName; plain indexes on
the lookups the services actually make (PublicKeyId, author and group
post listings, ParticipantsKey, the delivery queue).
Migration _001 runs first and removes the duplicates the races could
already have left (keeping the newest actor row, the oldest post, the
accepted follower), then fills ReservedName from every avatar and group.
ReservedName is one username space for personas, groups and the instance:
a name is reserved by an insert the unique index arbitrates, before the
avatar or group is saved, so two simultaneous sign-ups cannot both get it.
A short list of names (admin, support, abuse, postmaster, ...) is never
available.
EntityMaps.Warm touches every entity's collection one at a time before
anything else runs. MongoDB.Entities maps the Entity base class on first
touch, and two types mapped at once throw "An item with the same key has
already been added" and stay broken for the life of the process; the
parallel test run hit it, and the delivery worker racing a request could
have too.

S8: a direct message joins a conversation only when its participants are
exactly that conversation's members, found through a new
DmGroup.ParticipantsKey (a hash of the sorted members). A remote context
no longer decides anything: it let anyone who knew a conversation's
context post into it, and joining by context while dropping a participant
would have shown a reply to someone it was not addressed to. A context is
kept only when it is on the author's origin. Sending a DM to the same
people again reuses their conversation instead of opening a new one.
S9: Group.Kind is Circle or Community. A circle is not a federated actor:
its actor, collections, WebFinger and inbox answer 404, a remote Follow is
refused, and posts in it are IsLocalOnly - never delivered, never in an
outbox, never served. Communities keep today's behaviour until P4.
Migration _003 makes every existing group a circle, marks their posts
local-only and backfills the conversation keys.
End-to-end inbox tests sign real deliveries from a fake peer: a context
injection, a forged activity id, a note attributed to someone else, a
cross-origin object, a bad signature, junk bodies and a Follow of a circle.

S1 and S2 of the roadmap. RemoteActorService:
- FetchObject accepts a document only when its id is the address it was
served from; a same-origin document naming another address is asked for
at that address once (how GoToSocial serves its key URIs), anything else
is dropped;
- GetActorByKeyId accepts a key only when the actor lists it, its owner is
the actor and it lives on the actor's origin, whether the keyId points at
the actor or at a key document;
- a refetch for a key or an actor happens at most once per five minutes,
so a bad signature cannot make us hammer a host;
- the cache row is written by one atomic upsert on ActorURI;
- every fetch is signed by the instance actor, never by the persona that
happened to receive the activity.
The inbox refuses an activity whose id is not on its actor's origin, and
an Undo of someone else's activity; a Create's object, an Update and a
Delete must be on the actor's origin too, and a cross-origin object is
refetched from its own origin before it is trusted.
Tests: a fake peer on two origins serves forged actors, foreign-owned keys,
cross-origin key documents, aliases and a GoToSocial-style key address
(integration, PRIVAPUB_TEST_MONGOD=1).
