thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 cee85309b8 M9 (first part): the means to locate a server
- IConnectedAddresses remembers which address each host's last connection reached, set in
  SafeHttpHandlerFactory's connect callback. That is once per pooled connection, with no
  second DNS lookup, and the address is never stored.
- IGeoLocator / DbIpLocator reads the offline DB-IP Lite city and ASN databases (MaxMind
  .mmdb, via MaxMind.Db). It maps memory, swaps to new files within ten minutes, rounds
  coordinates to one decimal, never looks up a private address, and answers nothing
  when the files are missing. CdnNetworks names the CDNs whose edge addresses say nothing
  about where a server is.
- deploy/max/geo-update.sh fetches this or last month's databases, checks them and swaps
  them in atomically. The privapub-geo timer runs it monthly as www-data, and setup.sh
  installs the directory, the script, the units and a first download.

Describing servers will use these in M8.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 8f4d6cbdf9 A private fediverse on the workstation: PrivaPub against a real GoToSocial
Build / Build (push) Successful in 57s
Deploy / privapub.thepra.dev (push) Successful in 1m12s
tools/pasture/run.sh starts PrivaPub, GoToSocial and Mongo on one podman network behind Caddy's internal CA, and
interop.sh drives both through their own client APIs: follows (one to a locked account), posts, CW, replies, likes,
boosts, DMs, edits, deletes and unfollow. All 25 checks pass, three fresh runs in a row.

- Federation:AcceptAnyCertificate joins the two test-network switches; startup refuses all three in Production.
- WebFinger falls back to http only when AllowPlainHttp is on.
- A bootstrap logger, so a failure before the host is built is no longer silent.
- P4 is ticked in the roadmap, with what has not been run live (Lemmy, a Mastodon circle member).

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 ccc3597699 Every outbound federation request goes through one guarded client
Infrastructure/Http adds the client the roadmap's S3 and S4 ask for:
- the connect callback resolves the name itself and refuses loopback,
  private, link-local, CGNAT, documentation, multicast, ULA, NAT64, 6to4,
  Teredo and IPv4-mapped/compatible forms, then connects to the vetted
  address, so DNS rebinding cannot swap it afterwards;
- redirects are followed by hand, at most three, each one re-checked;
- bodies are capped at 1 MB after decompression, only JSON media types are
  read, every request has a 15 s budget, and a refused URL is not asked
  again for five minutes.

Actor and WebFinger fetches and inbox deliveries all use it. Test networks
can switch on Federation:AllowPrivateNetworks/AllowPlainHttp; startup
refuses both in Production.

PrivaPub.Tests (xUnit v3) starts with the address table and the fetcher's
limits against an in-process peer; build.yml and deploy.yml run it.
