peers/mastodon.sh runs Mastodon's web and sidekiq containers on a shared Postgres and Redis
(peers/shared.sh). They trust Caddy's CA through SSL_CERT_FILE and reach private addresses
through ALLOWED_PRIVATE_ADDRESSES. Its users and tokens come from tootctl and rails runner.
scenarios/mastodon.sh adds 49 checks, as listed in docs/INTEROP.md: follows, posts,
replies, likes and boosts with undos, DMs, polls, FEP-044f quotes both ways, media through
the proxy, edits, deletes, locked follows, a circle request, reports, blocks and statistics.
Two are expected failures:
- inbound Block (P7);
- circle posts. Mastodon 4.7 loses the recipient of deliveries to its numeric
/ap/users/<id>/inbox and then drops a post that names no local account. The fix on our
side changes what a circle reveals, so it waits for the owner.
GoToSocial and Mastodon together: 86 passed, 0 failed.
The pasture now copies Caddy's root certificate reliably, readable by the peers, and
rebuilds the bundle each time. The CA directory is mounted shared (:z), because a private
:Z label locks out every container but the last. pfetch reaches PrivaPub's own https URIs
through Caddy. PRIVAPUB_ENV passes settings to PrivaPub, which scenarios/crawler.sh uses to
check the opt-in crawler against Mastodon: it visits, describes and reads the peers list.

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).
