Committed before restarting, deliberately: this changes the registration wire,
and the restart that proves it also bounces officer-claude-code, which is what
the session doing the work runs on. An uncommitted 25-file protocol change is
worse to inherit than one marked unverified.
`capabilities: ['music']` → `handles: ['music']` on the registration message,
across 20 sidecars, both plugins, the connector, the registry and the protocol
type. findSidecarByCapability → findSidecarHandling, waitForCapability →
waitForHandler.
The name: a sidecar already has `handleCommand`, so the list is literally what
it handles. `provider` was rejected — 390 existing uses and it already means
websocket door. `serves` was rejected — collides with HTTP serving, which
sidecars also do.
THIS IS A BREAKING WIRE CHANGE with no compatibility shim. A platform expecting
`handles` reads `undefined` from a sidecar sending `capabilities`, registers it
with an empty list, and every sendCommand finds nobody — chat, terminal and
music all fail with "No sidecar handling X is connected". So the whole estate
has to restart together; there is no rolling upgrade.
If it goes wrong: `git revert HEAD` and `pm2 restart all` again. The registry is
in-memory and nothing about this touches the database, so a revert is complete.
Found a fifth meaning of the word on the way, correctly named and untouched:
the pty sidecar's terminfo capability queries (XTGETTCAP escape sequences).
That is now five — permissions, the item store, routing keys, Lightning wallet
features, and terminfo.
tsgo clean, 797 tests, 787 pass, same 7. Not exercised against a live sidecar.
headscale leaves the platform. 45 files move to plugins/offscale/ and the
platform stops knowing it exists.
api/router.ts the thin auth-gated proxy, now at /api/offscale
sidecar/ 18 files, the whole headscale contract and its admin keys
db/ schema + queries, offscale_servers
web/ 26 files as panels and a layout — no screen, per the rule
removed from the platform: the hono mount, the `headscale` capability, the
App.tsx route pair, the screen and its barrel, the AppRegistry spread, the
officerdev re-exports, the dock tile, the page-title rule, and both database
barrels. tsgo is clean and nothing references it.
the imports tell the story of what the plugin↔host API actually is. the sidecar
takes @@/sidecar/protocol, @@/sidecar/connect, @@/data-path and
@@/officer-url.mjs; the queries take officerdb/db and officerdb/crypto; the
schema takes officerdb/auth/schema for the one reference a plugin may make; the
web half takes useClient, copyToClipboard, WorkspaceView and TerminalView from
the officerdev barrel. all of it resolves because a plugin lives inside the repo
— no publishing, no version negotiation.
AND IT FOUND A REAL BUG IN THE INSTALLER. createSidecarProxy learns its port
from a one-shot `<name>:server` event and subscribes when the plugin's router is
first imported — at mount. install started the sidecar BEFORE mounting, so the
announcement fired into a void: process online, routes mounted, every request
answering `503 sidecar not available` until something forced a reconnect. it
would have hit every plugin with an http sidecar. `example` never caught it
because it has no listener to announce.
install and enable now mount before starting; disable still unmounts before
stopping. neither direction leaves a mounted route in front of a sidecar that
cannot be reached.
verified live: /api/offscale/_officer/servers answers {"servers":[]}, /offscale
and /offscale/nodes serve, the old /api/headscale is 404, the offscale
capability is registered from the manifest, and officer-offscale is online.
757 pass, same 10 pre-existing failures.

src/databases/officer_db/src/<feature>/{schema.ts,queries.ts}, replacing the
parallel schema/ and queries/ trees. 24 feature directories, 46 files moved with
git mv so history follows.
The parallel trees had drifted, which is what the restructure is really fixing:
four features were named differently on each side — app-store/sidecar-installs,
email/email-accounts, server/server-config
operations had a schema and NO query file: its task_logs is reached directly
from src/servers/api/task-logger.ts, bypassing this package's own boundary
integrations had queries and NO schema, because it spans two features'
tables — server_integrations and user_integrations
Both lopsided cases survive as directories holding one file, which states the
problem instead of hiding it across two trees.
Nothing outside the package changed how it imports. `officerdb`, `officerdb/types`
and `officerdb/db` resolve exactly as before; index.ts absorbed the path changes.
Added `"./*": "./src/*"` so the new layout is reachable — `officerdb/soulseek/schema`
— which one script needed, because soulseek is a plugin and therefore commented
out of the aggregator.
schema/index.ts became src/schema.ts, keeping the core/plugin split from earlier
tonight. drizzle.config.ts and the package's "./schema" export follow it.
Verified rather than assumed: all 52 files in the package parse, every relative
import resolves against the new layout (checked by walking each specifier to a
real file, since parsing does not check paths), and everything in the tree
importing officerdb still parses. Not typechecked — empty node_modules, frozen
installs.
One rewrite bug worth recording: the rule mapping a query module's sibling import
also matched the './schema' this pass had just written, turning it into
'../schema/queries' in 22 files. Caught by the resolver check, not by parsing —
both spellings parse fine.
Also corrects every path reference the move invalidated: src/databases/CLAUDE.md's
layout diagram, the root CLAUDE.md data section, three docs, and seven sidecar
comments naming queries/<x>.ts.

officer-url.mjs is now the only file in the tree that touches process.env.PORT.
Twenty-two others read it and supplied their own default; a value with
twenty-two sources is not configuration, it is twenty-two things to keep in sync,
and they had already drifted three ways.
It throws when PORT is unset rather than guessing. A default only covers the case
where .env was never loaded — which is not a machine anyone wants running,
because POSTGRES_URL is missing in the same breath. What the default bought was a
process that starts, binds somewhere unexpected, and fails later for a reason
that does not name the cause. Same posture as jwt.ts with JWT_SECRET.
It is .mjs, not .ts, and that is the whole reason this could be one file. pm2
launches officer-pty with node (ecosystem.config.cjs) and everything else with
bun; node cannot import TypeScript, so a .ts module would have left the pty
sidecar holding the only surviving copy of the default — precisely the thing
being removed. allowJs is already on, so the TS callers still get types. Verified
both runtimes import it, and that PUBLIC_URL-style overrides still work.
It also exports API_URL and OFFICER_API_URL, because nineteen sidecars were
independently building `ws://127.0.0.1:${PORT}` and two more were building the
http form. Those are one listener described in two protocols — no sidecar binds
anything — so they belong beside the port rather than being rediscovered per
file.
server.tsx now takes PORT as a number, so Number(PORT) at the serve site is gone.
Not typechecked (empty node_modules, frozen installs). Every edited file parses
under `bun build --no-bundle`; node and bun both load the new module; the unset
and non-numeric paths were exercised; the pm2 profile still loads.

Every PORT fallback in the tree now says 9000. There were three answers to one
question, each defensible where it was written and none of them visible from the
others:
server.tsx and 19 sidecars 5000 a default from before there was an installer
user-instance.ts 9010 what scripts/setup-old/setup.sh really wrote
.env.example 9000 what we told people to write
5000 goes first because macOS binds it — AirPlay Receiver has owned it since
Monterey, so a dev server there fails to bind or gets shadowed by something that
answers.
All 22 sites moved together, which is the point. Changing the app alone would have
turned a consistent-but-wrong default into a split one: the app on 9000 while
nineteen sidecars still dialled 5000.
9010 was the interesting one. It was the only value that ever matched a real
machine, because it is what the old installer wrote — and it was in the single
file whose disagreement would have broken chat alone, with nothing else looking
wrong. Its own comment records the same bug being fixed once already, within the
file, by a change that left it disagreeing with everything outside it.
Note what these defaults actually are: the sidecars bind nothing. user-instance.ts
has no listener at all — it builds ws:// and http:// URLs that both address the
app's single listener. So every one of these numbers is a guess at where the app
is, for a value that .env always supplies. Worth removing rather than aligning,
which is a separate change.
Not typechecked (empty node_modules, frozen installs). Every edited file parses
under `bun build --no-bundle`; the pm2 profile loads.

An upload over a few MB came back as a 400 with an empty body, no message anywhere, and nothing logged
by Immich, the sidecar or officer. It was a race, not a size limit. Immich judges an asset from its
first few KB and rejects immediately, then closes; both our hops were still writing the body; Node
treats the leftover bytes as a protocol violation and replaces the application's answer with a bodyless
`400 Bad Request` + `Connection: close`. The real message never reached the wire.
Measured before the change: streamed lost the message 1/4 at 8 MB and 4/4 at 32 MB — probability rising
with size, which is why small photos usually worked and a phone's video never did.
Both hops needed it. Fixing only the sidecar took 32 MB from 4/4 failing to 2/4, because the platform
proxy was losing it one hop up.
Bounded at 512 MB, above which the body streams exactly as before. That ceiling is not a refusal and is
deliberately not a 413: a file Immich ACCEPTS is read to the end and never races, so a 4 GB video is
unaffected. All that is given up above the cap is the error message on a file that was going to be
rejected anyway. A first attempt refused over-cap uploads outright and would have broken the working
4 GB case to improve diagnosis of the doomed one.
`bufferRequestBody` is opt-in and off by default: the vault and wallet proxies must keep streaming so a
passphrase or macaroon never lands in the platform's heap.
Also adds the proxy error logging that made this findable at all — status and two byte counts from
headers, never the bodies. `responseBytes: "unknown"` is what exposed the stripped response.
Verified live at 32/256 MB (buffered) and 640 MB (streamed, passes through).

both forwarders buffered the whole request body into an ArrayBuffer before
re-sending it to Immich. with maxRequestBodySize at 4GB that put a phone's
video upload in the sidecar's heap for a hop that never reads the bytes.
callUpstream now sets duplex: 'half' so a stream is a legal body, matching
what createSidecarProxy already does on the platform side. the four JSON
callers are unaffected.
the platform proxy forwards no content-length, so the body already reached
us chunked; this extends that one hop to Immich. verified against the live
instance (3.1.0): bulk-upload-check round-trips a streamed body and returns
the right verdict.

Locked assets are gated on elevation, and elevation lives on a session — an API key
has no `auth.session`, so no key permission or allow-list entry can reach them. The
gate sits inside the generic owner-access check, so a locked asset's thumbnail and
original are covered too, not just its listings.
So `/_locked` mints a session at unlock, holds it in memory for the elevation window,
and closes it on lock, on idle, or when the active immich account changes. Nothing new
is written to photos_config: the pin and the password are never at rest, and a full
compromise of officer's database still does not open the folder. The cost is that
unlocking asks for the immich password as well as the pin.
`auth/*` stays refused wholesale in routes.ts. The four auth routes this needs are
reached through named endpoints that each do one thing, and the elevated forward
carries three resources rather than the main allow-list.
Not yet exercised at runtime — the sidecar has not run this code.

The same registry photos got: any number of labelled instances stored encrypted in
invoiceshelf_accounts, one selected, switchable from the nav. The token is write-only across
the sidecar boundary — the list has no field that could carry it back — and nothing reads
INVOICESHELF_URL/TOKEN/COMPANY_ID any more, so officer's own process.env no longer holds a
credential only the sidecar can use.
The company is pinned on the account row rather than resolved per request. InvoiceShelf's
`company` header does not error on a wrong or missing value; it silently returns another
company's books. So the choice is made once, at add time, and a token that can act for several
answers 409 with the list instead of guessing.
Both apps also take an email and password now, because neither service makes a key easy to get:
InvoiceShelf 2.4.2 ships no screen that issues tokens at all (POST /auth/login is the only way),
and Immich's is buried in account settings. The sidecar does the exchange — InvoiceShelf mints a
Sanctum token, Immich logs in, creates an all-permissions API key and closes the session again —
and stores only what comes back. The password is never persisted. Pasting a key still works.
Verified against the live instances: InvoiceShelf 2.4.2 and Immich 3.1.0, routes and DTOs read
from the running containers. The two sign-in paths are untested end to end — no second login to
try them with.

IMMICH_URL/IMMICH_API_KEY lived in the platform-wide .env, which was wrong
twice over: bun auto-loads .env into every process started in this directory,
so `officer` itself held an immich credential it has no code to use — and
connecting a library was a shell task on the server rather than something the
owner could do from the app.
it is a registry, not a single connection: any number of labelled accounts with
one selected, the same shape headscale_servers uses. two keys against the same
instance (one per immich user) is the ordinary case, so the label is what has to
be unique, not the url. one active account per owner is enforced by a partial
unique index rather than by convention.
keys are encrypted at rest and write-only across the sidecar boundary — no route
returns one, masked or otherwise. every save is validated against the live
instance first, so a wrong or under-scoped key is a 400 with the reason instead
of a stored row that makes every later screen fail mysteriously.
the drizzle snapshot under migrations/ is regenerated; nothing applies it.

officer-photos owns the whole Immich contract: the instance URL and the API
key live there and nowhere else, and the platform side is an auth-gated
forwarder holding no credentials. The route surface is an allow-list keyed on
the first path segment, so admin, auth, api-keys, sessions, jobs, system-config
and libraries are unreachable by construction rather than by enumeration.
The UI mirrors Immich's own sidebar — timeline, explore, map, search, albums,
people, favorites, sharing, archive, trash — because the point of a sidecar
screen is to reproduce what the upstream already ships, then extend it. The
timeline reads Immich's columnar time-bucket format directly; selection lives
in the URL per docs/navigation-audit.md.
Two things worth knowing for anyone touching this later:
- `duration` is an integer count of milliseconds in Immich 3.0. It was an
HH:MM:SS.mmm string before, and every stale example still shows that form.
- the map container is sized with h-full/w-full, never `absolute inset-0`.
maplibre's stylesheet sets `position: relative; overflow: hidden` on the
element it is given, and an unlayered vendor rule beats Tailwind 4's layered
`.absolute` regardless of source order — so the div collapses to height 0 and
clips its own canvas away. Nothing errors: the GL context is healthy, tiles
download and pixels are drawn into a buffer nobody ever composites.
maplibre-gl is pinned to 5.x deliberately; 6.0 resolves a separate worker file
from import.meta.url, which Officer's index.html fallback answers with HTML.
