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.

- ObjectRecord, one per stored remote object: the raw JSON (up to 256 KB, always hashed), delivered or fetched,
refetched from origin or not, the activity that brought it (or caused the fetch), shared or personal inbox, the
signature's key, algorithm and signed headers, received time, published and updated, the delivering activity's
@context, and up to ten later revisions from Update.
- Delivery details travel from InboxReceiver through the inbox job to the handlers as Arrival.Current.
- A host is described from its NodeInfo when we first hear from it, at most weekly (DescribeInstance job), never when
someone opens the details view.
- GET /api/privapub/v1/statuses/:id/provenance and /api/privapub/v1/instances/:host, with the extensions an object
used detected from its raw form (044f quotes, interaction policies, contexts, proofs, Misskey fields, MFM, FEP-8967
links, emoji, polls, language maps, url variants, Markdown content).
Checked live: a GoToSocial reply shows as delivered to the shared inbox, signed hs2019 with GoToSocial's fragment-less
key id, with its interaction policy detected, and gts.test is described as gotosocial 0.22.1.
