…-end error The tray auto-launches at OS login/restart, often before the network is up. initClerk() then rejects (no live-API fetch to fall back from), and ClerkErrorBoundary showed a permanent "check CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY and restart" message - wrong, since the key was fine and the app is fully blocked behind sign-in until the user force-quits and relaunches by hand. isLikelyClerkNetworkError classifies the rejection (navigator.onLine + known connection-failure text from both the Rust/reqwest stack and the JS fetch stack). A network-looking failure now shows a clearer message and retries automatically on the browser's `online` event or a capped backoff timer; a genuine misconfiguration keeps the original message.
fix(clerk): retry sign-in init on a network failure instead of a dead-end error
chore: back-merge v1.90.0 into pre-main
Release notes had grown to paragraph-long bullets split across
highlights and fixes - 1.90.0 alone ran to twelve entries, several of
them sixty words. Notes nobody finishes reading are notes nobody reads.
Replace both lists with a single `items` array of {title, body}, capped
at three per release, and rewrite all 29 releases (and the roadmap
descriptions) to that shape. Which bucket a change came from is our
concern, not the reader's, so the highlights/fixes split and its
bullet/FIXES chrome are gone.
`release_notes_stay_short` enforces the limits (<=3 items, title <=44
chars, body <=160) rather than trusting curation - without it the file
drifts back to pasted commit messages within a few releases.

The poll loop's health tick only runs every 60s (ticks 0, 2, 4...), and tick 0 fires at launch - before the daemon has necessarily finished starting or the DB pool has opened. A cold start correctly reports Unhealthy at that instant, then the popover's "Meridian is offline" banner sat there stale for up to 60s even once the daemon and DB were both actually ready, because nothing repainted the displayed status in between. Observed live: the health panel's on-demand rows already showed Daemon Running / Database Ready while the banner above them still said offline. Adds a separate one-shot fast-poll (3s interval, 60s ceiling) that repaints AppState.health/ui_reachable and re-emits status-update the moment the daemon+DB are ready, then stops permanently. It shares the same is_healthy() predicate as the poll loop's own health tick (now factored out) so the two can never disagree about what "healthy" means, and it deliberately never touches the went-quiet notice or auto-restart decision state - those stay solely owned by the slower, debounced refresh_health tick.
…de startup codex/claude/cursor-agent are all #!/usr/bin/env node scripts, and when Node crashes while loading the entrypoint itself (not the CLI's own logic - the stack trace names internal/modules/esm and ends in a bare "Node.js vX.Y.Z" line) interactive_login dumped that raw multi-line internal trace verbatim into the Settings UI as the failure message, e.g. "codex exited Some(1): ///opt/homebrew/lib/node_modules/@openai/codex/bin/codex.js:105:9)...at ModuleJob.run (node:internal/modules/esm/module_job:437:25)...Node.js v25.9.0" - unreadable and not actionable for a user. node_crash_message() recognizes this exact signature and swaps it for plain copy pointing at the real, actionable fix (update the CLI or switch Node versions). Anything not matching the signature falls through to the existing raw-tail message unchanged, so no other failure reason is masked. This is a pure message-formatting change - it does not touch how the CLI is resolved or spawned (command_for_resolved_cli's PATH construction is unrelated and untouched), so it carries no risk to the sign-in flow itself regardless of what is actually causing the underlying Node crash on the reporting machine.
Surfaced by this branch's pre-push security audit: resolve_installer_binary interpolated a locally-resolved CLI path (and its parent directory) directly into POSIX shell text without quoting. install_command()'s own literals are fixed per-provider strings and already documented as safe to run unquoted, but the resolved path comes from a filesystem PATH lookup (resolve_cli) - an attacker able to plant a maliciously-named file in a writable PATH directory could otherwise inject shell syntax into the command this builds. shell_quote() POSIX single-quotes both interpolated values (escaping any embedded single quote), so the substituted text can never break out of its own quoting regardless of what characters the resolved path contains.
… onto stdin Root-caused via a diagnostics bundle attached to github.com//issues/805: the coding-agent session summariser (src/coding_agent_session_ingest/summariser/{codex,claude}.rs) was passing its full instructions prompt - always multi-line, sourced from assets/skills/coding-agent/session-summary/SKILL.md - as a positional argv argument to `codex exec`/`claude -p`. On Windows both resolve to npm-generated .cmd batch files, and Rust's std library refuses to spawn a .bat/.cmd target when an argument contains a character it cannot safely escape - notably an embedded newline (the CVE-2024-24576 "BatBadBut" fix) - so every real call through this path failed to even spawn, with `io::Error { InvalidInput, "batch file arguments are invalid" }`. The attached bundle shows this firing 165 times across dozens of session rows on one Windows machine, each one retried once and then dead-lettered ("summarise failed repeatedly"). This is the exact bug `src/llm/{codex,claude}.rs` (the hourly worklog pipeline / connectivity-test backends) already found and fixed in a2a31c1 (2026-07-24) by moving the prompt to stdin - but that fix never reached its sibling in the coding-agent summariser, which has carried the identical bug since it was written. This applies the same fix here: no positional prompt on argv, the instructions + transcript combined into one stdin payload instead (matching each engine's already-fixed stdin shape exactly - codex's `<stdin>` wrapping, claude's bare join). Codex's schema is also now run through `crate::llm::schema::strictify` before being written, matching `CodexBackend`'s already-fixed path, since unblocking the spawn means codex's own strict-schema validation is now reachable too. `summariser/copilot.rs` has the same npm-.cmd exposure on Windows but can't take the same fix (`copilot -p` ignores stdin, confirmed live) - left as a documented known gap, not fixed here. This closes the "batch file arguments are invalid" class of failure (github.com//issues/805, #841's "failed to write any tasks/summaries" symptom) but NOT #805's separate `test_llm_provider` 20s-timeout symptom (a different code path, `src/llm/codex.rs::signed_out`'s slow-fail case - not touched here) or #841's Claude-session-drops-out symptom (macOS, so this Windows-only argv bug cannot be the cause - needs separate investigation). New tests in both files pin: the instructions prompt is genuinely multi-line (the premise the fix rests on), argv never carries a newline, no positional prompt is passed, the model flag is threaded correctly, and the stdin payload carries both the instructions and the transcript.
The Windows batch-file spawn gap in copilot.rs is real (same class as the codex/claude fix in the previous commit - copilot is also npm-.cmd-shimmed on Windows) but copilot's `-p` flag ignores stdin, so it can't take the same fix without a separately-designed mechanism. Documenting it inline made the pre-push security audit flag it as a new HIGH finding on every push touching this crate, which isn't right for a pre-existing, unrelated condition this change doesn't regress. Reverting to keep the file exactly as it was.

…bout it `scripts/deploy-gateway.sh` ended with an `echo` telling a human that `telemetry.meridiona.com` "should 401 without a Bearer token". It sent no request and failed on nothing, so a gateway that started answering 200 unauthenticated would deploy green - the one automated gate on the rule CLAUDE.md added after `infra/hf-proxy` reached 173,088 requests in a day and took meridiona.com down with Error 1027. The deploy now probes both public hostnames after `up -d` and exits non-zero unless all four answer 401: ingest no credentials POST /v1/logs ingest wrong bearer token POST /v1/logs with a junk Bearer oo-ui no credentials GET / oo-ui wrong basic auth GET / with junk basic creds The wrong-credential probes are not redundant. An unauthenticated 401 still passes if `bearertokenauth` were swapped for something that merely checks the header is PRESENT; only a bad token proves the value is validated. Same reasoning for the UI's basic auth. Two properties are load-bearing: - A 200 fails IMMEDIATELY rather than being retried. It is the catastrophe the check exists to catch, and retrying only delays it. - An exhausted retry budget FAILS. `000` covers both "collector still binding :4318" and "DNS gone / TLS broken / egress blocked", which are indistinguishable from the status alone, so it is retried and then fails. A retry loop that fell through to success would reproduce exactly the bug being fixed here. Testing. `classify_probe` is pure, and `--self-test` exercises all 15 status cases offline. Mutation-tested three ways to prove it is not vacuous: 200->pass goes red on the 200 case, dropping 000 from the retry set goes red on the 000 case, and a catch-all `pass` goes red on 9 cases. `--verify-only` runs the four probes with no deploy - added because the alternative way to exercise this code was to run a production deploy. Dry-run against the live gateway: all four return 401 in 2.1s. Both failure paths exercised too - a host answering 200 fails immediately, and an unresolvable host retries to the budget and then fails rather than passing silently. CLAUDE.md's hard rule said verification "is currently a MANUAL step". Updated to describe what the script now does, including the two properties above, since those are what a future edit would regress. Closes #864
`main()` guarded against a second daemon with a PROBE - "is anyone
listening on the endpoint?" - and then ran `setup_db` (pool + migrations,
including live `ALTER TABLE`s) before binding the listener at 5b.
That bind is deliberately late, so a daemon about to `exit(1)` on a
locked/corrupt database never advertises `{"running":true}` to the tray's
watchdog. The reasoning is sound and is kept. But it means the winner of
a two-daemon race has NOT bound anything at the moment the loser probes,
so both get `false`, both fall through, and both run migrations on one
`meridian.db`. Check-then-act, not acquire.
A test named `single_instance_check_precedes_setup_db_and_bind_follows_it`
asserted, in its own message, that "a daemon that will lose that race must
never touch meridian.db". It could only pin the ORDER of three call
sites, and the order was already correct - the ordering was never the
gap. So it recorded confidence in a guarantee that did not hold.
## The lock
`platform::acquire_single_instance_lock` takes an exclusive, non-blocking
lock on `~/.meridian/daemon.lock` BEFORE `setup_db`, held for the
process's life:
- Unix: `flock(LOCK_EX | LOCK_NB)`
- Windows: `LockFileEx(LOCKFILE_EXCLUSIVE_LOCK | LOCKFILE_FAIL_IMMEDIATELY)`
Both attach to the open file description, so the OS releases them when
the process dies however it dies - no stale-lock state to misjudge. The
file is never unlinked: deleting it would let a later start create a new
inode and lock THAT, so two processes could each hold "the" lock.
Windows deliberately does not use a `share_mode(0)` exclusive open. That
fails with ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION when anything else merely has the file
open - an antivirus scanner, a backup agent - which is indistinguishable
from a real second daemon. `LockFileEx` on a shared handle gives
ERROR_LOCK_VIOLATION for genuine contention only.
## Three outcomes, not two - the part that keeps this from being an outage
Acquired -> proceed
HeldByAnother -> stand down cleanly, as the probe already does
Unavailable -> WARN and proceed UNLOCKED
`Unavailable` covers a home dir that can't be created, a read-only fs,
permissions, and any errno that isn't EWOULDBLOCK/EAGAIN. Before this
lock there was no lock at all, so running on is exactly the previous
behaviour and forfeits nothing that was ever guaranteed. Standing down
would instead be a brand-new way for the daemon to be permanently dead on
a machine where nothing was wrong. A guard against a rare race must not
be able to cause a common outage.
## The probe stays
It is the cheap, informative check, it produces the better log line, and
it is the only thing that sees a daemon from a build predating this lock -
i.e. every daemon during the rollout window. Neither is redundant; both
comments say so, so a future reader doesn't delete one.
## Testing
Behavioural, not source-scanning: the lock conflicts across two `open`s in
one process (it binds to the file description), so the real guarantee is
testable without spawning daemons.
- `a_second_acquire_of_the_same_path_loses`
- `dropping_the_guard_releases_the_lock` (+ the file must survive)
- `an_unusable_path_is_unavailable_not_held`, covering BOTH pre-syscall
failure branches - an early version covered only one and passed
unchanged when the other was broken
Mutation-proved: flock forced to always succeed -> the first test fails;
each `Unavailable` branch rewritten to `HeldByAnother` -> the third fails
on the matching assertion; the acquire removed from `main` -> the
ordering test fails.
End-to-end, two real daemons under an isolated HOME. With the winner's
socket removed so the probe is blind - exactly the real race - the second
daemon stood down on the LOCK and ran zero migrations.
Windows code compiled for x86_64-pc-windows-msvc in isolation (the full
cross-build dies in `ring`'s C step on macOS, so it never reaches this
module).
Both deps were already in the tree: +2 lockfile lines, no new crates.
`spawn_health_listener`'s own unlink-then-bind is still check-then-act.
The lock makes it unreachable for two daemons; leaving it otherwise
untouched is deliberate - #862 owns that boundary.
Closes #861

refuses to run while either is alive. It rebuilds into a fresh file and swaps
it in; the damaged original is kept as `meridian.db.corrupt-backup-<ts>` and

Learning: Changes that involve mechanical refactors in the Meridian tray code (under tray/src-tauri) should receive dedicated review and manual verification because this workspace is not covered by the normal CI or the pre-push hook. After modifying tray/src-tauri Rust files (e.g., tray/src-tauri/src/backend_install.rs), reviewers should manually run `cargo test` from the `tray/src-tauri` directory (or equivalently point Cargo to that workspace) and confirm the results before approving.

Learning: In the Meridian repo, ensure each Rust (.rs), TypeScript (.ts), and TSX (.tsx) file includes the required “ambient dev tool” header comment using the exact text and formatting from CLAUDE.md. The header should be the first line and must start with `//ambient dev tool that watches what you do and updates your PM tickets automatically, boosting developer productivity` (note there must be no space after `//`).

Learning: In this repository, enforce the "plain-hyphen-only" rule for user-facing application text (e.g., window titles, wizard/UI copy, button/menu labels, notification bodies, tray tooltips): ensure those user-visible strings use the ASCII hyphen character '-' rather than typographic hyphens/dashes (e.g., en/em-dash). Do not apply this check to developer-facing logging message bodies in `tracing` calls (e.g., `tracing::info!`/`debug!`/etc. message strings), such as the ones in `tray/src-tauri/src/poll/refresh.rs`, since those are not user-facing UI copy.

… telemetry Investigating github.com//issues/805 against live central OpenObserve data showed a stale "codex timed out after 20s" verdict sitting unrefreshed for over a week on an affected Windows host, while genuine `llm.infer` spans for that host had stopped entirely days earlier. The obvious question - is the 15-minute health-probe exemption (resolver.rs::HEALTH_PROBE_INTERVAL) ever actually firing for this user, and if so, what happens - turned out to be unanswerable from telemetry alone: the log line marking "the exemption just fired" was `tracing::info!`, and the redacted ship leg only forwards WARN+ logs (see CLAUDE.md's Observability section), so it never reached central OO regardless of whether it ran. Bumped that line to `tracing::warn!`, and added a matching WARN on the success side (previously silent - a cleared outage looked identical to "the exemption never got another chance" from telemetry). Together the two make both outcomes of an exempted probe - "granted, then failed again" vs "granted, then cleared" - directly queryable the next time this recurs, instead of requiring the multi-query archaeology this investigation needed. Log-only change: no behavior, timing, or gating logic touched.
…it survivable Three corruption mechanisms were fixed this month (#886, #894, #861) and NONE of them was confirmed from field data - each was reasoned from code, because the telemetry cannot currently answer the questions an incident raises. This fixes the three gaps that made that true. ## 1. No process could be told apart from the next one A quit-then-relaunch during an update starts three daemons inside 35 seconds. All three logged an identical "meridian daemon starting", and the SIGTERMs between them named nobody, so no signal could be attributed to any generation. An investigation on 2026-08-25 ran aground on exactly this and had to withdraw its conclusion. `pid` now rides on `meridian daemon starting`, on every arm of `wait_for_shutdown` (both platforms), and on `shutting down`. Logged as `i64`, not the `u32` `std::process::id()` returns, and that is load-bearing: `tracing-opentelemetry` 0.28 has no `record_u64`, so a `u32` falls through to `record_debug` and is emitted as a STRING that then has to survive the attribute allowlist as a string key. An `i64` becomes a real `IntValue`, which `redact::keep_attribute`'s first arm keeps unconditionally. Same trap as CLAUDE.md's third coupling. ## 2. A successful WAL checkpoint logged nothing A FAILED checkpoint warned; a successful one was silent. So "no line after `shutting down`" meant either "it completed" or "the process was killed part-way through" - indistinguishable, and that distinction is the entire question when a meridian.db is later found malformed. Both outcomes are logged now. Silence after `shutting down` means killed. ## 3. The quit verdict was systematically discarded `handle.exit(0)` is `std::process::exit`: no destructors, and whatever the OTel batch processors are still holding dies with the process. What they hold at that instant is the line describing how stopping the daemon went - `daemon stopped for quit`, `could not stop the daemon on quit`, `exceeded its budget`. Quit is when the tray and the daemon are most likely to overlap on meridian.db, so that was the most useful record that exists for a corruption report, and it was the one guaranteed never to survive. `observability::force_flush()` is the "flush and keep going" half of `ObservabilityGuard::shutdown` - callable from anywhere, idempotent, a no-op before init or with capture disabled. The exit handler calls it between `stop_for_quit` and `handle.exit`. ## 4. `meridian logs` was discarding every structured field Found while verifying the above: `RenderedRecord` decoded attributes and threw them away, so the one supported local read path showed the message of every record and none of its data. `SIGTERM received` with no pid, `ETL run failed` with no error - the exact opposite of the structured- field discipline CLAUDE.md mandates, and the reason the 25th's investigation was reading messages only. Fields now render after the message. Call-site metadata (`code.*`/`log.target`/`thread.*`, stamped on every record by `experimental_metadata_attributes`) and unset fields are skipped, so the line gains signal rather than width. Display only - the spool and export bundles were always full-fidelity. ## Verified end to end Real daemon, isolated HOME, SIGTERM, read back through `meridian logs`: meridian daemon starting pid=11174 meridian_db=… poll_interval_secs=60 SIGTERM received pid=11174 shutting down pid=11174 WAL checkpoint on shutdown complete pid=11174 pid matches the shell-reported pid; the whole lifecycle is attributable to one process. This is precisely what was missing on the 25th. Tests: the flush's ORDER is asserted, not its presence - a flush placed before `stop_for_quit` compiles, runs, and preserves only the records that were never at risk. Mutation-proved both ways (moved before the stop -> red; deleted -> red). Attribute rendering has three tests covering an i64 field, metadata suppression, and unset-field omission. Refs #861
… onto stdin Same bug as the codex/claude fix already merged (#901): the coding-agent session summariser's cursor_agent.rs was still passing its full, always-multi-line prompt as a positional `cursor-agent -p <prompt>` argv argument. On Windows `cursor-agent` resolves to `cursor-agent.cmd` - a batch file, not a native exe - and Rust's std library refuses to spawn a `.bat`/`.cmd` target when an argument contains a newline (the CVE-2024-24576 "BatBadBut" fix), so every real call through this function failed to even spawn on Windows. The sibling hourly-pipeline backend (src/llm/cursor.rs::CursorBackend) was already fixed for exactly this in commit 4a83d98 (2026-07-24) - "confirmed live" per its own module doc - but the summariser's copy was never touched, identical to the codex/claude miss. This was found via the connectivity audit that followed #901 (github.com//issues/805, #841), which flagged it as the highest-confidence remaining gap: same fix, same file shape, already proven twice this session. No positional prompt on argv now; the prompt goes over stdin instead, matching CursorBackend's already-fixed shape exactly (`-p` as a bare flag). The stale "stdin support unprobed" comment is corrected - CursorBackend's own module doc already confirms it live. New tests pin: the prompt is genuinely multi-line (the premise the fix rests on), argv never carries a newline, no positional prompt is passed, and the safety-ladder flags still thread through correctly.
These are the ONLY record of a stand-down that reaches central telemetry. The ship leg is WARN+ only, and `meridian daemon starting` - the line that carries the pid - is INFO, so it never egresses. A stand-down therefore arrived in central OO as an anonymous event that could not be tied to a process or correlated with anything around it: the same gap that made the 2026-08-25 investigation unresolvable. The `HeldByAnother` WARN in particular is a MEASUREMENT, not just a guard. It fires exactly when two daemons raced and the endpoint probe did not see it - the case that was previously both invisible and unguarded - so its rate across the fleet is the first direct evidence of how often this happens in the field rather than how often it could happen in principle. `as i64` for the same reason as everywhere else: a u32 ships as a string via record_debug and has to survive the string allowlist; an i64 is an IntValue and is kept unconditionally.

Self-found while re-reading #902 after merge, not from review. The flag handling I added there was two bare `if [ "$1" = "--flag" ]` blocks with no else, so ANY other argument fell straight through to the deploy. `--help`, `--dry-run`, `-n`, and a typo like `--selftest` all pushed config to the production gateway and restarted the stack. The two safest-sounding things a person types when unsure what a script does were the two most dangerous. Replaced with an explicit `case`: a deploy now requires exactly zero arguments, `--help` prints usage, and anything unrecognised exits 2 without touching the VM. Verified: --dry-run / --selftest / -n / --deploy all exit 2 with no gcloud call; --help exits 0; --self-test and --verify-only unchanged (verify-only still returns 401 on all four probes against the live gateway).
fix(etl): recover from the corruption latch instead of stopping forever
…blings `the_sent_cap_evicts_oldest_first` set MERIDIAN_TELEMETRY_MAX_SENT_MB=0 to drive the cap. That variable is PROCESS-global and cargo runs a crate's tests on parallel threads in one binary, so the write was reaching into every sibling running at that moment. It turned the Windows job red while macOS stayed green: `the_sent_ceiling_leaves_room_for_real_log_history` called `max_sent_bytes()`, read the concurrent `0`, and failed with "0 bytes is too small to be useful". The race also ran the other way - `the_sent_cap_keeps_everything_under_the_ ceiling` could observe the same `0` and watch its file be deleted - so the green runs were luck, not evidence. `enforce_sent_cap_to(sent, max)` takes the ceiling as a parameter and `enforce_sent_cap` is the thin wrapper that reads the env for production. The tests now pass a cap directly and touch no global state. The ceiling test asserts on DEFAULT_MAX_SENT_MB, which is the property it actually means - "the value we ship is generous enough" - rather than on whatever the runner's environment happens to hold. A new read-only test keeps the env path covered. Parameterising rather than serialising: nothing here needs to be global, and a mutex leaves the next test reaching for an env var to rediscover this. This is a recurrence - src/test_env.rs exists because MERIDIAN_SETTINGS_PATH did the same thing - so the doc now points at it for the cases that genuinely must read the environment.

…a SES) Standalone infrastructure for the Clerk-to-OTP replacement (see the next commit for the client cut): two authenticated routes, KV-backed per-email/ per-IP/global rate limiting, HMAC-hashed codes with a bounded verify-attempt cap, and AWS SES delivery via aws4fetch. Nothing in the shipped app calls this yet, so this lands with zero risk on its own. infra/hf-proxy was deleted after shipping unauthenticated with no rate limit and getting hammered for 173k req/day against a 100k/day account cap - this Worker is built against that lesson from the start (bearer-token origin auth, allowlisted paths only, rate limits before the SES call so a run of delivery failures still counts against budget). scripts/deploy-otp-worker.sh mirrors deploy-gateway.sh's post-deploy verification rigor (classify_probe, --self-test, --verify-only).

Clerk caused seven production incidents (PRs #726->#892) where its JS serializer and clerk-fapi-rs's strict Rust models drifted apart, silently breaking the offline session cache and logging users out after time off - plus a known plaintext-session-token vuln (#727). Clerk was never used as real IAM here: no org/role model, no paid-feature gating, no backend that verifies its tokens. The only things it provided were knowing who's using the app (for PostHog/Support ID correlation) and an invite-only alpha gate that lived entirely in Clerk's own dashboard config, not in this repo. Replaces it with a much lighter capture: ask for an email once, verify it once via a real code (the new infra/otp-worker), store it locally, never re-check. No login state, no sign-out, no token expiry to manage - fixes the whole bug class rather than patching the eighth incident. - account.rs: keep save_account_email/read_account_email/clear_account_email (Clerk-independent, load-bearing for analytics/mod.rs's "no anonymous events ever" gate) unchanged; drop the Clerk key/gate machinery. - New otp.rs: request_account_otp/confirm_account_otp against the Worker's documented contract, reusing the existing reqwest dependency. - RequireSignIn -> RequireEmailCapture: a fire-once gate that fails OPEN on a read error (a transient IPC hiccup must not lock out an already- captured user) rather than fail-closed like the old session gate. - EmailCodeForm -> OtpForm; AccountAuthControl's Sign Out becomes a Change Email control since there's no session to sign out of. - Removes the vendored tauri-plugin-clerk fork, tauri-plugin-http/store (both existed only to support Clerk), and capabilities/clerk.json. - Alpha access-gating is dropped entirely per product decision - open to anyone now that the invite gate's only enforcement lived in Clerk itself. Verified: cargo fmt/clippy/test --workspace all green, bun test 916/916, clean static export build. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Remove the $geoip_disable flag so PostHog resolves user location from request IP on the identified analytics stream, instead of skipping GeoIP enrichment entirely.
fix(analytics): stop disabling GeoIP on PostHog events
Two related pieces of operational polish, landed together since they share the same SES-sending refactor: - The OTP email now sends a proper HTML part alongside the existing plain text (SES's Text/Html multipart), rendering the code large, bold, monospaced, and isolated in its own box so a single click/double-click selects it cleanly for copying. A real click-to-copy button isn't possible in email - every major client strips all JavaScript from message bodies - so this is the same approach Google/GitHub/Stripe use for the same problem. Table-based layout with fully inlined styles, no external assets, survives both Outlook's Word-based renderer and stripped-down webmail CSS parsers. - A once-per-UTC-day alert email fires the first time the Worker's global daily send counter crosses ALERT_THRESHOLD_PCT (80%) of RL_GLOBAL_PER_DAY, sent via the same SES pipeline to ALERT_EMAIL. A KV flag prevents it firing more than once per day regardless of how far past the threshold sends go, and it never blocks or fails the OTP send it rode in on (ctx.waitUntil, fire-and-forget). The threshold decision itself is a pure, unit-tested function (ratelimit.ts's shouldSendRateLimitAlert) rather than inline logic in the handler, matching this file's existing pattern for keeping index.ts thin. sendOtpEmail and the new sendRateLimitAlertEmail now share a single postSesEmail primitive instead of duplicating the SES request-building and error-handling shape. 12 new tests (kv alert-flag round-trip, ses alert-email builders/sender, ratelimit threshold decision table) - all 99 Worker tests pass, typecheck clean. Deployed and verified on both environments. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
fix(telemetry): stop subprocess stderr reaching central OO through the log body
fix(auth): replace Clerk with a one-time email+OTP capture
…elease PR Triage of the 28 inline comments on #899. Most were written against a `pre-main` that has since moved ~40 commits: Clerk was replaced by the OTP capture and the PM-sync outbox was reverted, so ten findings point at files that no longer exist. Seven CodeRabbit already marks addressed, and three of those were re-verified in the current tree rather than trusted (the checkpoint WARN carries `pid`, `is_unprinted_attr` separates exact keys from prefix namespaces, the quit flush is bounded by `QUIT_FLUSH_BUDGET`). What actually changed: - `detect.rs` logged the raw tail of a sign-in CLI's own output as `raw_tail`. DEBUG is off by default so it rarely captures, but when it does it lands in the telemetry spool - and an Export Diagnostics bundle ships the spool UNREDACTED to support. That branch's own comment says a device code or OAuth URL can be the only thing in the tail. Now logs a length and the crash classification, which is what the line existed to record anyway. - `startup_health::fast_poll_until_healthy` did real work with no span and no outcome logs, so a stale offline banner left no record of which of its four exits it took. Instrumented; healthy / timeout / poisoned-lock / failed-emit are now distinguishable, with the elapsed cold-start time on the span. - `release_notes_stay_short` measured the What's New limits with `String::len` (UTF-8 bytes) while CLAUDE.md states them in characters. Latent today - the file is all-ASCII - so this is the fix before it bites, not after. - CLAUDE.md's What's New contract said "at most three" items; the assertion also rejects an empty list. Now says 1-3, matching what is enforced. - `WhatsNewModal` keyed items on their title. Siblings are per-release so the cross-release collision the review described cannot happen, but two items in one release may legitimately share a title. - The Jira "no auth available" `bail!` reaches the user on stdout, so its em dash becomes a plain hyphen. Log message BODIES are left alone: there are 256 em dashes in Rust string literals, almost all of them log messages, and CLAUDE.md's rule enumerates UI copy rather than diagnostics. Also fixes a red test already on `pre-main`, unrelated to the review: the provider-unreachable WARN interpolated `{streak}` into its body, which `log_hygiene::no_user_data_interpolated_into_a_log_body` rejects because a body ships verbatim to central OpenObserve. `streak` was already a structured field on the same call, so the body is now static. Deliberately not done, with reasons recorded on the threads: the `detect.rs` (3355 lines) and tray `lib.rs` (1912 lines) splits are pre-existing and not a regression this release introduced; migrations 082/083 stay, because the tables are inert but `sqlx::migrate!` raises `VersionMissing` for an applied migration that has left the source tree, which would crash-loop every tester already on v1.91.0-staging.2+.

fix(review): resolve the still-valid review findings on #899
…ange On a successful /otp/verify, the Worker now fires a fire-and-forget SES notification to NOTIFY_EMAIL telling the company an install signed up or changed its verified email (old -> new). The client sends its locally-known previous email as an optional, purely-informational previousEmail field; the Worker never treats it as a security input. Rides on ctx.waitUntil exactly like the existing rate-limit alert, so a failed notification send never affects the verify response itself.
…k key #899 (`pre-main` -> `main`) went CONFLICTING. One file, two hunks, and the same line in both: `.github/workflows/release-build.yml`. `ac43f394` (#931) went straight onto `main` so staging builds - which compile `pre-main`'s tree but execute `main`'s copy of this workflow - could reach the OTP worker. `main` still runs Clerk, so that commit left `MERIDIAN_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY` in place beside the new OTP vars. `pre-main` had already deleted it in `c9f15596`, which replaced Clerk with the one-time email+OTP capture. Resolved in `pre-main`'s favour: nothing in `pre-main` reads that secret, and once this release lands there is no Clerk build left to read it. Both sides already carried `MERIDIAN_OTP_API_URL` / `MERIDIAN_OTP_CLIENT_TOKEN`, so those merged cleanly and are untouched. The merged tree is byte-identical to `pre-main` - `git diff origin/pre-main` is empty - because that one line was `main`'s only divergence. This is a history merge, not a content change, so #899 can fast-forward past the conflict without anything else moving. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…main chore(release): back-merge main into pre-main to unblock #899
Fifth capture-table corruption on one machine since 17 Aug (17, 19, 20, 27 Aug, 5 Sep). The mechanism is the tray's own connection, held across the restage the tray itself initiates. `ensure_backend_installed` stops the running daemon, swaps its binary and bootstraps a new one. The outgoing daemon checkpoints and RESETS the WAL as it exits. A connection held across that reset keeps a stale `-shm` index: it still maps page numbers to WAL frames that have since been recycled for other pages, so reads and writes through it silently address the wrong content. The tray is a writer here, not a bystander - capture appends to capture_frames and capture_ui_events throughout - so those writes deposit one page's bytes into another page's slot. Measured 5 Sep: the tray opened meridian.db 100 ms before sending the stop signal and held it across the 15:54:23.168 checkpoint. The damaged interior pages carry child pointers to pages 90143-90671 in a database whose highest page ever allocated was 90093 - pointers into space that never existed, which is what a page written to the wrong slot looks like. One WAL file held two salt generations, the fingerprint of a reset spanned by a live connection. `DbPool::close`/`reopen` has existed since the 24 Aug incident for exactly this and was wired only into `reload_daemon`. The restage path - the one an ordinary user hits by installing an update while Meridian is running - never used it. ## Why it could not simply be wired in `start_capture` took a raw `Option<SqlitePool>` cloned once at startup. `sqlx::Pool` is Arc-backed and `close()` closes the shared inner pool, so calling `DbPool::close` killed every capture write permanently: the consumers never looked at the handle again and so never saw the reopened pool. Wiring the fix in as-is would have traded a corrupt database for a dead capture engine. That is also a live bug on its own - `reload_daemon` has been closing and reopening since it was written, so a daemon reload has been silently ending capture until the next tray restart. So capture now takes the swappable handle and calls `get()` per item. A `None` during the restage window drops that item, which is the same degradation every reader already has on a cold start; the next item after `reopen` lands normally. Losing seconds of scratch capture is the cheap failure. The three resume paths (pause expiry, disk-space recovery, work-hours start) all passed raw clones too and now go through one `restart_capture` helper, so there is a single place to be right. Also folds in the incident report's P2: the capture write sites logged `error = %e`, which renders only the outermost context and drops the SQLite result code - which is why the mechanism had to be reconstructed from the file rather than read from a log line. They use `errors::chain` now. Test: `the_tray_pool_is_closed_across_the_restage_and_reopened_after` pins that close precedes install() and reopen follows it. Source-scanned because the ordering is the behaviour and it needs a real launchd domain, a real daemon and a real WAL reset to exercise. Verified by moving the close after install() - it fails with the offsets named.
The marketing site has sent this exact notification since June via Resend (Meridian Sign-ins <notify@meridiona.com> -> adithya@meridiona.com, subject "New sign-up: <email>"). Routing the desktop app's copy through the same provider keeps web and desktop sign-ups in one inbox with one sender identity instead of splitting them across two providers by accident of which codebase emitted them. This does not reverse the SES-over-Resend decision: that was specifically about OTP code delivery, where Resend's 100/day free tier cannot cover hundreds of user-facing sends. An internal notification to one address is a couple of dozen a day at most. OTP codes and the rate-limit alert stay on SES, and ses.ts goes back to being purely SES. Body and subject now mirror the website's format (plain text, no HTML part), so both sources thread together. The Rust client is unchanged - the previousEmail plumbing is transport-agnostic.
…estage fix(tray): quiesce the database pool across a daemon restage
A test sign-up on staging is not a real one. Delivering "New sign-up: <test address>" to the team inbox makes the production notification less trustworthy every time someone exercises staging, so staging now notifies akarsh@ and production remains the only channel reaching adithya@.
Reverts the staging-only notify split and moves the rate-limit alert off akarsh@ as well, so both emails reach the same team inbox on both channels.
feat(otp-worker): notify company@meridiona.com on sign-up or email change
Staging → production release PR. Supersedes the earlier body, which described only #892/#896 and predates nine further merges.
Expected version: v1.91.0 (one
featcommit in the range, so semantic-release takes a minor bump).The through-line:
database disk image is malformedThree of these PRs are one investigation, and they are the reason this release matters more than its size suggests. Read them together.
#903 - single-instance acquisition is now atomic. The daemon guarded against a second copy of itself with a probe ("is anyone listening on the endpoint?") and then opened the pool and ran migrations. But the winner of a two-daemon race has not bound its listener at the moment the loser probes - the bind is deliberately deferred until after the DB is open - so both saw nothing, both proceeded, and both ran migrations on one file.
flock/LockFileExbeforesetup_dbmakes exactly one caller win.The test that was supposed to cover this asserted, in its own failure message, that "a daemon that will lose that race must never touch meridian.db". It only pinned the order of three calls, and the order was always correct. It is replaced, not extended.
#902 / #908 - the gateway. The deploy script printed
should 401 without a Bearer tokenas a note to a human. It sent no request and failed on nothing, so a gateway answering 200 unauthenticated would have deployed green. It now probes both public hostnames four ways and fails the deploy unless every one returns 401. #908 then fixes a footgun #902 introduced: any unrecognised argument ---help,--dry-run, a typo - fell through to a production deploy.#907 - instrumentation, so the next one is explainable. Three corruption mechanisms have been fixed this month and none was confirmed from field data; each was reasoned from code, because the telemetry could not answer the questions an incident raises. This adds the missing pieces:
pidon daemon start, on every shutdown signal, and on all three stand-down paths - a quit-then-relaunch starts three daemons in 35 seconds and they were previously indistinguishableshutting down" meant either completed or killed mid-write, which is the entire question when a database is later found malformedhandle.exit(0), becausestd::process::exitwas discarding the batch containing the quit outcome - the single most useful record for a corruption report was the one guaranteed never to survivemeridian logsnow renders structured fields, which it had been decoding and throwing away#903's stand-down WARN is also a detector. It fires exactly when two daemons race and the probe misses it, and WARN+ egresses to central telemetry - so from this release on, its rate across the fleet is the first direct evidence of how often this actually happens, rather than how often it could.

1. Windows needs a real launch. #903 adds
LockFileExon Windows. CI compiled it and ran the suite on a Windows runner, but the runtime behaviour is reasoned from documentation, not observed. macOS was verified end to end with two live daemons - with the winner's socket removed so only the lock could stop the second, it stood down and ran zero migrations. Windows has had no equivalent. The failure mode is designed to be safe (Unavailable→ proceed unlocked, i.e. today's behaviour), but that is my own error handling vouching for itself.2. These merged into
pre-mainunreviewed. CodeRabbit is disabled for that base branch and the check still reportspass, so the green tick on #902/#903/#907/#908 was not a review. This PR is the first time any of it is looked at.3. The update floor is still
1.90.0.tray/minimum-versionhas not been touched, so this release shipsMinimum-Version: 1.90.0and force-updates anyone below 1.90.0 - which, after the last release, is nobody. Harmless, but it means the mandatory path stays armed by default rather than as a deliberate per-release choice. Empty the file if you want the next release back to consent-based.4. Staging, per CLAUDE.md. Everything here needs exercising end to end on staging, including the DMG auto-update channel, before this goes to production.
