Under /clientapi/admin/statistics, admin only (the root JWT's IsAdmin policy, like the domain
blocks; /api tokens are persona tokens):
- GET overview?days: totals per channel, inbound and outbound outcomes, the delivery
success rate, delivery latency p50/p95 from the buckets, active and known servers,
distinct accounts, and the ledger's written/dropped/failed counts;
- GET hosts?days&sort=volume|failures|latency|host&software&page&limit: per server
traffic, refusals, failures, latency, accounts, software and delivery health;
- GET hosts/{host}?days: the server's description, its daily series and its last 100
events;
- GET events?host&channel&outcome&reason&before&limit, and GET server?days for the
ServerDay rows;
- POST rollups/{day} refolds a past day; POST hosts/{host}/describe describes a server
again.
Days not yet rolled up, today included, are folded live from the events, so the numbers are
current. Answers that may carry locations carry the DB-IP attribution.

- 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.

A RollupDay job folds each finished day's InteractionEvents into one InstanceDay per server:
- Counters for the admin, keyed channel:activity:object:outcome:reason, plus signature
schemes, audiences, local kinds and features;
- PublicCounters, everything a public page may ever read:
- inbound and outbound activities from an allowlist, on public, unlisted or unaddressed
traffic only, with the outcome collapsed (accepted or dropped, delivered or failed);
- no reasons, no Flag or Block;
- features of public objects;
- health:ok or health:failed from reachability (a 4xx means the server answered);
- latency, wait and byte histograms, and the number of distinct accounts from that day's
hashes.
Re-running a day replaces it and keeps the live Reads counters. The day's salt is then
deleted, so its hashes can never be recomputed, and the next day is queued.
StatisticsSchedule plans today's rollup every hour and catches up any of the last seven
days that have events but no rollup. Waits round up into their bucket.

- HttpScope (AsyncLocal) tags each outbound request with a purpose and a trigger:
- purpose is set by the caller: actor, key, object, webfinger, context, nodeinfo;
- trigger is set by the job kind, by "verify" during inbox verification, or defaults
to "request".
- FederationHttp records every JSON, media and stream fetch: status, time, bytes, hops,
and an outcome of ok, refused or failed, with a reason: disallowed, remembered,
bad-redirect, too-many-redirects, content-type, too-large, bad-json, private-address,
timeout, network, or the status. A fetch a reader caused (trigger "request") is only
counted per server per day.
- Link previews record a 'preview' event: card, no-card or failed.
- The media proxy counts cache hits.
- TrafficMeter counts the client API per endpoint group, method and status class. It
counts our served documents (actor, outbox, collection, object, activity, licence,
webfinger, nodeinfo) by kind, status and whether signed, per day and never per server,
and never names a circle's collections.

DeliveryJobHandler records each attempt as an 'out' event: the activity, object type and
audience read from the body (ActivityShape, shared with the inbox side), the receiving
server, the status, the time the POST took, the wait since it was queued, the bytes, the
attempt number and the signer's kind (none for circles or private traffic). The outcome is
ok, deferred (429 or 503 with Retry-After, or an open breaker: host-unavailable), retry
(5xx, 408, timeout, network), or dead: another 4xx, private-address, not-deliverable,
signer-gone, or a retry at the last attempt. Until now none of this outlived the job's
seven-day TTL, and the last error was overwritten on success.

Arrival carries a verdict that handlers set with one line before an existing return
(Arrival.Drop, Reject, Accept, About), so no handler signature changes. InboxProcessor
records it as an 'in' event, with the time taken, the wait since the inbox accepted it, the
attempt, the audience (from the post's visibility, or else the activity's addressing), the
local actor kind, the object's age for updates, deletes and reactions, and the FEP features
of a delivered object. It also records types nothing handles (unknown-type), actors that
cannot be loaded (deferred) and handler failures.
Drop reasons: fetch-failed, unparseable, misattributed, duplicate, deleted, not-addressed,
not-followed, not-public, not-visible, not-deleted, unknown-object, unknown-recipient,
cross-origin, unsupported. Accepted sub-reasons: stored, poll-vote, edit, refresh,
actor-refresh, actor-delete, removed, tombstone-only, auto-accepted, pending,
follow-answer, quote-answer, quote-granted, undone, reaction, reported. Rejected: blocked,
ignored, quote-refused.
A circle's traffic is private and kindless, and a stranger posting into one is just
not-addressed, so the event store cannot reveal a circle.

InboxReceiver records each answer once, in a finally, with a reason: too-large, not-json,
not-activity, missing-type-or-actor, no-signature, the signature check's own codes
(headers-unsigned, digest-mismatch, header-unreadable, date-skew, expired,
algorithm-unsupported), signature-invalid, actor-not-key-owner, key-unavailable,
id-cross-origin, undo-foreign, misattributed, unknown-recipient, and for 202s queued,
duplicate, suspended or self-delete-unknown-key. Each event carries the activity and object
type, the inbox, the signature scheme, the bytes and the time taken. A 404 for an unknown
/mouth and a rate-limited inbox (429, from OnRejected) are recorded too.
Until the signature verifies, the host is only claimed, so it is kept only if the server is
already known. A suspended server is recorded under its own name.

InteractionEvent records one interaction with a remote server: its channel (recv, in, out,
http, preview, crawl), activity and object type, outcome and reason, status, latency, wait,
bytes, attempt, audience, local actor kind, inbox, signature, features and the object's age.
IInteractionLedger.Record never blocks and never throws: events go into a bounded channel
of 10k, a full channel drops and counts, and a hosted service writes batches of up to 1000
every two seconds.
Privacy, as decided by the owner:
- no persona, root, group or activity id, inbox URL, actor URI or sender IP is stored;
- distinct accounts are counted with an HMAC keyed by a per-day salt (InteractionSalt,
upserted so restarts agree, never created for a past day);
- the local actor kind survives only on public and unlisted traffic;
- a host claimed by an unverified sender is kept only if it is already known.
Traffic caused by reading is only counted per day (InstanceDay.Reads, ServerDay). Indexes:
a 90-day TTL on events, unique day rows, and a TTL safety net on salts.
