# Changelog
## [Unreleased]
+- **The hub and the homepage drop their subtitles, and both carry a Ko-fi link.** The headings are in Title Case on both pages: **Official Instances**, **Archives You Added** (hub) and **What It Does** (homepage). The line "The archives I run. Anyone can run their own." is gone from both, and the official-instance cards no longer show the site's description under its name; the four figures stay. The footer of the homepage and of the hub has a plain link reading "Ko-fi" to `https://ko-fi.com/archilyzer`. A published site's footer does not: an archive someone else hosts never carries it. Needs a rebuild and deploy of the hub and the homepage.
- **A job that waited in a queue no longer ends `failed` after doing its work.** A sync, download or other job queued behind another on the same platform ran its final page refresh outside any request, where Next refuses it, so the job read `failed` and `pnpm ops … --wait` exited 1 even though the work was done (the teamrcn sync on 2026-09-25). The refresh is now skipped there with one warning in the server log; the pages re-read disk on their next load anyway.
- **Downloads no longer sleep after a video the download filter declined.** The "sleep between downloads" (30 s by default) ran after every video, including each one the channel's download filter declined before fetching anything. A filtered channel's download-missing slept 193 times for 14 downloads on 2026-09-25. It still sleeps after every real fetch and after every failure, per-video ones included.
- **YouTube requests are paced at one per second.** Every yt-dlp run against YouTube now carries `--sleep-requests 1`, as Rumble's already did: the 429 investigation found YouTube had no request-level pacing at all. A channel's own `ytdlpExtraArgs` still wins, because it comes after.

+ Does**; the card is title then figures. The page's copy-rule comment now says so.

+`hub-summary.json` stubbed in; built homepage with the primary's `homepage/public` data), 1280 and 390,
+dark: the cards shorten by the description line; the figures stay aligned across a row (`mt-auto` on
+the figure block unchanged), and at 390 each card is title, figures, badge with no gap. Shots:
+`$T/c1b-hub-1280.png`, `$T/c1b-hub-390.png`, `$T/c1b-homepage-1280.png`, `$T/c1b-homepage-390.png`.
+
+**Changed locators:** `e2e-hub/official-instances.spec.ts` — `heading {level: 2, name: "Official
+instances"}` → `{level: 2, name: "Official Instances", exact: true}`; the card's `toContainText("Every
+word the member said.")` → `not.toContainText(…)` (the stub still carries a description, so the
+absence is proved); `getByText("The archives I run")` count 0; `heading "Archives you added"` →
+`"Archives You Added"`; new test "the hub footer carries a bare Ko-fi link" (href `KOFI_URL`,
+`_blank`, `noopener noreferrer`, text exactly `Ko-fi`). `homepage/e2e/marketing.spec.ts` — `heading
+"Official instances"` → `{level: 2, name: "Official Instances", exact: true}` + "The archives I run"
+count 0; new "the headings after the H1 are in Title Case" (`What It Does`, exact) and "the footer
+carries a bare Ko-fi link". `export/e2e/site-branding.spec.ts` — new "a site build carries no Ko-fi
+link" (no link named Ko-fi, no `a[href=KOFI_URL]`). **Left unchanged deliberately:**
+`e2e-hub/federation.spec.ts:151` `heading {level: 2, name: "Archives you added"}` (C2's file) — a
+Playwright role name without `exact` is a case-insensitive substring, so it matches "Archives You
+Added" and passes (it did: e2e:hub 12/12); C2 or a later slice may make it exact. Its test title still
+says "Archives you added" (a string, not a locator).
+
+| sha | what |
+|---|---|
+| `764f770e` | `common/lib/project.ts` `KOFI_URL`; Ko-fi in the hub footer (hub only) and the homepage footer's Elsewhere column |
+| `0e9192e9` | Title Case h2s, the "archives I run" line removed, no description on the official cards — hub `ArchiveShelf` (+ `AddArchive` comment), homepage `page.tsx` + `ArchiveCards` |
+| `35aafad3` | the spec locators above; Ko-fi specs (hub, homepage, site-mode absence) |
+
+**Gates** (on `35aafad3`): tsc clean (per commit). Common tests **1,845/1,845**. `pnpm --filter export
+exec next build` (site) ok; `compose:hub` (worktree, no corpus: "0 built-in pool site(s) …;
+hub-summary.json skipped") + `INSTANCE_MODE=hub … next build` ok (the known Turbopack warning) — the
+seven compose-hub outputs in `export/public` swapped for copies before and relinked after, primary's
+files untouched (`hub-sites.json` / `hub-summary.json` still 19:42); the built hub `index.html` carries
+the Ko-fi anchor. `pnpm --filter homepage exec next build` ok. e2e, queued (no wait): **`e2e:hub` 12
+passed** (11 + 1), 45 s; export `site-branding.spec.ts theme.spec.ts` **8 passed**, 26 s; **homepage
+suite 24 passed**, 57 s, with the Official Instances branch exercised (summary present). Editor build,
+editor unit, test:scripts and mcp not run: nothing they build or test changed beyond a new constant in
+`common/lib/project.ts`, which tsc covers. **Numbers tools: none.**
+
+**Found and left:**
+- **Homepage worktree data must be COPIED, not symlinked.** `homepage/app/lib/snapshot.ts` reads
+ `public/downloads/snapshot.json` at build, and Turbopack refuses a symlink that leaves the project
+ root ("Symlink … is invalid, it points out of the filesystem root"). The four gitignored entries
+ (`channel-sites.json`, `downloads/`, `homepage-summary.json`, `stats/`; ~60 MB) were copied from the
+ primary. `export/public`'s per-path links work only because nothing there is imported at build.
+ Worth a line in FACTS / WORKTREES.md.
+- **The export e2e harness writes the primary's `export/public/sw.js` through the worktree symlink.**
+ `export/playwright.config.ts` copies `service-worker/site-sw.js` to `public/sw.js` at load; in a
+ worktree that `sw.js` is a link to the primary's, so the site-spec run (20:13:39) replaced the
+ primary's hub service worker (10,027 B, from the 19:42 hub compose) with the site one (10,043 B).
+ Restored: the hub build's `out/sw.js` from this worktree is byte-identical to the primary's
+ `service-worker/sw-hub.js`, copied back and its mtime set to `hub-sites.json`'s (19:42:24). The C1
+ gate statement "the six compose-hub outputs … relinked after" did not cover this path either. Fix
+ candidate: unlink `public/sw.js` before the copy in `playwright.config.ts` (or add `sw.js` to the
+ worktree-link exclusions). Not done here (not this slice's file).
+- The homepage lists instances in the summary's order (Jeralyzer first), the hub in `hub-sites.json`
+ order (Anilyzer first); the colours agree per site. Pre-existing (C1), not a ruling.
+- Needs a rebuild + deploy of the hub AND the homepage; this slice did not run build-hub, deploy-hub
+ or deploy homepage.
