/@user and /@user/{id} are Razor pages showing an avatar's or community's
public and unlisted posts: no scripts, a strict CSP, no-referrer, noindex,
and an alternate link to the ActivityPub document. A client asking them
for activity+json is redirected to the actor or note, and the actor and
note redirect browsers here.
NodeInfo answers 2.1 as well as 2.0 (repository, homepage, a link to
FEDERATION.md) and counts only public local posts.
FEDERATION.md (FEP-67ff) lists the protocols, FEPs, route names,
activities and the security rules a peer will notice.

Local text (Domain/Content/ContentRenderer): Markdig with raw HTML off and
autolinks, or plain text for API clients; then @user and @user@host are
resolved (locally or through WebFinger) into Mastodon's h-card markup and
#tags into hashtag links, skipping code, links and e-mail addresses. A
post stores the result, its mentions and its tags, and is delivered to
the mentioned actors and the parent's author as well as to followers.
Renderer:
- Mastodon's @context (toot, schema PropertyValue, discoverable,
indexable, blurhash, focalPoint, featured, alsoKnownAs, movedTo) and
FEP-2c59's webfinger;
- an actor's url is its HTML page, its fields are PropertyValue
attachments, published is cut to the day and indexable is false;
- a note's content is the stored rendering; a title becomes name and a
bold first line, a content warning without its own text is summarised
by the title or "Content warning"; Mention and Hashtag tags, contentMap,
updated, and to/cc by visibility.
Routes take the agreed names: /groupies, /stalking, /scribbles/{id},
/grunts/{id} (a Create resolves), /whispers/{id} for a DM's context. The
outbox is a collection with a first page, paged by max_id. A browser
asking for an actor or a note is redirected to /@user, and WebFinger's
profile-page points there.

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.

Services/Federation and Controllers/ServerToServer become
Federation/{Actors,Signing,Inbox,Outbox,Rendering,Controllers}, the first step
of the roadmap's layout. No type, route or behaviour changes.
