Found in the browser UAT, not by the gate. Moving the cap onto the arriving
bytes meant it fires while the client is still sending, and answering + closing
mid-upload is what XHR reports as a network failure: the upload dialog said
"the server couldn't be reached" while the access log showed a correct 422
carrying the limit. A refusal the client cannot read is an outage as far as the
user is concerned.
`capped_stream_to` now reads the remainder to nowhere before raising, so the
client finishes sending and reads the real answer -- re-measured in the
browser, which now names the limit. Nothing past the cap is written, and the
request is still bounded by bodylimit's ceiling, so the cost is bandwidth an
AUTHENTICATED caller was sending anyway. The anonymous path is untouched:
auth still resolves before a byte is read.
The regression test sits on the helper, not the route, and the reason is worth
keeping: the route-level version was written first and PASSED with the drain
deleted. httpx's ASGI transport pumps the request body whether or not the app
reads it, so "drained" and "abandoned" are indistinguishable through
TestClient. Its own mutation check is what exposed it.
`POST /api/downloads/upload` declared `file: UploadFile = File(...)`, and
FastAPI parses and spools a declared body before the first dependency runs --
`require_human` included. An unauthenticated caller could therefore make the
process write the whole per-file allowance (500 MiB by default) to temp, once
per request. SEC-20's ceiling bounded that number but could not stop the
writing, which is why E27 parked it rather than closing it.
The route now takes no body parameter. `spool_upload` names `require_human`
first and only then streams `request.stream()` to the staging temp file, so a
stranger is refused before a byte moves -- the shape the screenshot route has
used since E16. Filename and display name travel as percent-encoded headers
(latin-1 on the wire, so a Hungarian filename needs the encoding) instead of
multipart parts.
`capped_stream_to` joins `capped_body` in routes/_common.py: the same counting
rule, written to a file descriptor rather than accumulated, because holding
500 MiB would trade a disk problem for a memory one. Its refusal is the
caller's, so the upload route keeps answering 422 `upload_too_large` with the
admin knob's own number.
With no envelope to allow for, the edge is now exactly that knob, and
MULTIPART_ENVELOPE_ALLOWANCE is gone.
The invariant stops being prose: test_body_limit.py asks FastAPI itself
(`route.dependant.body_params`) and fails the gate if any route with a raised
ceiling declares a body. A comment could not have prevented the defect it
described; that test would have.
Both new tests were seen red for the right reason -- before the fix the
anonymous probe got its 401 only after the server had read 4236 bytes of a
multipart body, and re-declaring the File parameter turns the invariant test
red naming the route and the parameter.
- admin config group "Bug reports": Gitea address, repository, token (secret),
and "Check the connection" — the repository must answer, take issues and
be PRIVATE (a report carries its reporter's log); checked on every send too
- POST /api/debug-sessions/{id}/issue sends the SAVED draft: create the issue,
upload each file on its own request (the measured API), then show the
screenshots inline; progress is kept in the draft, so a send that stops
half-way keeps its issue and the retry sends only what is missing; 5 new
issues an hour per user; audited as issue_create
- the composer: Create issue (only where a tracker is set up, naming the
repository), a partial-send banner with retry, and a Preview — the tracker's
own rendering in a sandboxed frame, or the zip's markdown without one
- the recorder's refusals answer in the localized family (debug_session_*,
screenshot_*, issue(s)_*), not bare codes the UI could only call generic
- a tracker refusal logs the status only: its message can quote the title back
A session is one recording, capped at 60 minutes by the server. While it is
open, a request naming the caller's own session in X-Debug-Session is logged
at the session's level with every line tagged; a header naming anything else
is ignored. The browser's batches count a session as consent to its level and
keep the tag only on its own events. Screenshots are judged by their bytes,
capped in size and count, and served back to their owner only.
- debug_sessions / debug_screenshots tables, one open session per user
(partial unique index), log_events.debug_session_id indexed
- /api/debug-sessions: start (joins a running one), stop, list, get, events,
screenshots; /api/me reports the live session
- the hourly log job closes expired sessions and drops them with the logs
- logsink.serialize and routes._common.capped_body shared by their readers
~150 HTTPExceptions carried a hand-written English sentence as their detail,
shown verbatim under the Hungarian UI — in the blocking error dialog and on
every inline surface that printed HttpError.detail (sign-in, setup wizard,
change password, the passphrase gate, live search). Four also quoted an
upstream exception's text back to the user.
- app/refusal.py: `refused(status, reason, **params)` → {code: "refused",
reason, …params}; localizeDetail translates errors.refused.<reason> with the
params interpolated. "Unknown X" 404s use the existing not_found(what).
- sysconfig.set_value raises InvalidSetting (reason + bounds) instead of an
English ValueError; the three writers answer it through setting_refused.
- The Plex connection/write/image failures log what the upstream said and
answer a reason; the search scraper's failure is logged and answered as
youtube/unavailable (it crashed refusal_reason before).
- HttpError.detail now only ever holds a translated reason: a string detail
(only the framework's own can remain) is left out, so reading .detail is
safe everywhere — including destructured, the hole the raw-detail source
scan could not see. That scan and its five-file exception list are gone.
- Enforced: test_http_details.py fails on any HTTPException with a sentence
for a detail; the contract test requires every refused reason and every
not_found "what" in both languages, and no key for one that is gone.
- local/jsx-comment-text: a // inside JSX children renders as text; the rule
is ten lines in eslint.config.js rather than eslint-plugin-react's ~1800
lockfile lines.
The two manual syncs (subscriptions import, playlist pull) had no YouTubeError
handler, so a quota, token or transport failure was a raw 500 and the blocking
"Server error" dialog (E9 F1). The other YouTube routes answered either the
upstream's English or a playlist-scoped "youtube_failed".
One helper, routes/_common.youtube_refusal: 422 {code: "youtube", reason} with
the reason sorted by what the user can do — quota (wait for the reset),
reconnect (the token step refused), unavailable (retry). Used by every route
that surfaces a YouTube failure; localizeDetail translates it.
"Reconnect" had no path: a grant Google revoked still read as granted, so
Settings and the wizard offered no connect button while every call failed.
An invalid_grant from the token endpoint now clears the stored grant.
Deep-review round 3 of bug hunt 2026-09.
- get_or_404 / owned_or_404 answer a structured {code: "not_found", reason: <what>}
(errors.notFound.* in HU+EN, generic fallback). The structured-404 fix of round 2 had gone into the
ad-hoc `_own_playlist` (CLAUDE.md's "Not" pattern) while the shared helpers stayed string-only, so
views, tags, pins, Plex playlists, invites and users still 404'd in English. `_own_playlist` now
goes through owned_or_404; admin's hand-rolled user lookups use get_or_404.
- A move into a list that is gone names the TARGET (reason "move_target") — "this playlist doesn't
exist any more" was read as the list on screen, which still exists.
- Every refusal in the playlists router is a {code: "playlist", reason} (playlists.errors.* HU+EN)
instead of a bare English string shown verbatim in the Hungarian UI.
- `req` / `uploadReq` mark the errors they already put on screen (the error dialog, the connection
notice, the 401 sign-out), and notifyActionError skips those. The watched toggles, the saved views
and a playlist delete toasted a fault the dialog was already showing; Playlists' two hand-written
status filters now go through the same check.
Establish the R6 API-contract infra before the S1b payload:dict migration:
- iso(dt) in utils.py replaces the ~16 hand-rolled `x.isoformat() if x else None`
serializer idioms across the routes.
- get_or_404 / owned_or_404 in routes/_common.py — one 404 + existence-leak policy;
plex's _own_playlist_or_404 and saved_views' _own_view now delegate to it.
- require_write_scope dependency in auth.py collapses the inline has_write_scope→403
checks (channels subscribe/unsubscribe, playlists push/push-plan) that had drifted
into three different messages into one; the conditional delete_playlist guard stays
inline (its message was already canonical).
No response-shape change (iso == isoformat for a present value). Gate: ruff clean,
pytest 163 green (+ test_utils for iso).
