- 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.

- A public post that links to a page gets a preview card: from the post's own data first (FEP-8967 Link preview, the
object's image, title and summary); otherwise the server reads the page once, 0-60 s after the post arrives, never
when someone reads it. OpenGraph and Twitter tags give title, description and image; one LinkPreview per address
is cached for 7 days and shared by the whole server, so a fetch never points at a persona.
- Lemmy link posts, which carry no title or description, get them filled in.
- The page fetch uses the guarded client (public addresses, three redirects, HTML only, first 512 KB).
- Federation:FetchLinkPreviews switches page fetching off.
- Local public posts get cards too.
Checked live: a link to a GoToSocial profile page becomes a card with its title, description and proxied image.
