All gates green. Final report:
**Verified (phase 167 final pass — all 6 tasks already in `complete/`)**
- Live re-measure of the headline criterion on the **1,000-doc live-replica corpus** (restored `data/bor_live_kb_replica.dump.sql` into a scratch DB `bor_audit`, alembic 0011→0027, dropped after; the shared dev DB was never touched): `GET /api/docs/tree` default depth=1 = **8,474 identity → 1,128 B with `Content-Encoding: gzip`** (< 40 KB bar; ~2 MB defect fixed), repeat load **304 / 0 bytes**; depth=8 265,147→23,515; node drill 20,844→1,065; `/api/docs` 246,366→45,104; `/api/documents/content` 892,124→60,776 (`LOOK`, accepted-with-why). Reproduces `AUDIT.md` to within 1 byte.
- Transport contracts proven live: `POST /api/chat` **no** `Content-Encoding` + frames arriving live + budget line `… enc=identity duration_ms=7380 stream=1`; HTML still `no-cache` with the `?v=` rewrite (and gzipped); A20 headers on 200 **and** 304; ETag identical across identity/gzip; `depth=0|9|abc`→422; anonymous tree/node→403; unknown folder/source→404 `unknown node`.
**Gates (all 100% green)**
- `uv run pytest` → **3980 passed**; `uv run pytest --cov=app --cov-report=term-missing` → **TOTAL 99%** (`compression.py`, `http_cache.py`, `response_budget.py` 100%; `api/docs.py` 99%, one defensive dedupe line).
- `uv run ruff check .` → All checks passed; `uv run pyright` → 0 errors.
- Phase + regression E2E **in isolation** (`--junitxml`, exit codes): `test_kb_tree_lazy_load` 11, `test_kb_tree` 8, `test_kb_tree_nav` 4, `test_navbar_refresh` 7, `test_document_dates` 6, `test_git_source_dates` 4, `test_sync_summary_visibility` 3, `test_table_ux_polish` 6, `test_sources_midstream_bug` 6, `test_ls_tree_drilldown` 3, `test_smoke` 3 — **0 failures/errors** (the earlier `-q -q` run had simply suppressed pytest's summary line).
**Documentation** — README.md + AGENTS.md reviewed in full (1,436 / 80 lines):
- Fixed (pre-existing, phase-167-exposed): README *Caching & deploys* claimed "One Starlette middleware (`app/core/caching.py`) applies the rule" while the section now describes three transport layers → rewritten to name caching/compression/http_cache, the real outermost→innermost order, and why `bytes=` is uncompressed.
- AGENTS.md rule 5 (UI Structure Check) gained the phase-167 clause: a lazily-drilled level keeps the current level rendered, its in-flight `role="status"` / `role="alert"`+Retry row lives in the same bounded scroll panel, and stat cards read server `totals` (never a walk of a depth-limited tree).
- Cross-checked and consistent: every `BOR_*` in `.env.example` is in the README table, every `Settings` field is documented, all 15 README-cited API routes exist in the app, no stale "one fetch / drill client-side" claim remains anywhere.
**Notable decisions / deviations**
- `compression.py` adds a documented `_RebufferSmallResponses` seam beyond the D1 sketch (the caching layer's `BaseHTTPMiddleware` re-framing otherwise defeats Starlette's `minimum_size` exemption and inflates tiny responses) — integration-pinned, math still Starlette's.
- A node-route **404 = vanished folder → honest reset to top level** (per `00_phase.md` D4/D6), not task-06's "alert + Retry"; 500 shows alert+Retry with the level preserved — both pinned, nothing weakened.
- Retrieval battery not measurable (shared E2E DB holds no corpus), but `git diff --name-only -- app/rag` is empty, so retrieval is unchanged by construction. `AUDIT.md` left byte-identical (it lives under `todo/`, off-limits to this pass); no git index/history commands run.
**Next pending phase:** none — `167_api_payload_diet` is the only entry in `.agents/phases/todo/`; the harness moves it to `complete/` and commits.
All gates green. Verification complete.
**Phase 123 — final verification pass (all 4 tasks already in `complete/`)**
- Verified the full implementation is in the working tree: `app/api/chat_images.py` (upload/serve pair), `ChatRequest.image`/`ChatMessage.image` (path-validated, omitted-when-None), toggle-off + stale-file hinted error frames, `build_user_content` multimodal build at both sites (chat.py deflected branch + `run_agent`), config-gated composer attach/preview/upload-then-send, restore + shared rendering, CSP `img-src 'self' data:` carve-out, mock-LLM capture buffer.
- `uv run pytest` → **2796 passed**, exit 0 (unit + integration).
- `uv run pytest --cov=app --cov-report=term-missing` → **TOTAL 99%** (29/4615 missed; phase-123 modules 99–100%).
- `uv run pytest tests/e2e/test_chat_image_questions.py -v --no-cov` → **5 passed** in isolation.
- `uv run ruff check . && uv run pyright` → clean (0 errors).
**Completion criteria:** (1) attach→send→multimodal text+image to the model, bubble/reload/shared all render it, saved chat stores the PATH with `"base64" not in json.dumps(stored)` — **verified** (E2E tests 1–4 + integration round-trip); (2) `BOR_IMAGES=false` — control hidden, exact hinted error frame, zero model calls / no query_log row — **verified** (E2E test 5 + integration); (3) text-only byte-identical (`content` stays a plain `str`) — **verified** (unit + integration); (4) all gates green — **verified**; (5) commit + phase move — left to the harness per pipeline rules (no `git add`/`commit` run).
No defects found; no live-infrastructure changes (repo + local dev DB only). **Next pending phase: none** — 123 is the last phase in `todo/`.
All verification is complete — this pass needed no code changes. Final report:
**Phase 91 — Admin Theme tab: final verification pass (all 6 tasks already in `complete/`)**
- Verified pre-paint theming end-to-end: `ui_settings` store + resolver, admin `GET/PUT /api/ui-settings`, `CachingMiddleware` inline-`<style id="bor-theme">` injection before `</head>` (incl. `/shared/<token>` prefix branch, unit-pinned), CSP sha256 exemption for the inline tag, Theme tab shell + `theme.js` editor, CSS-file theming fully retired.
- No defects found; zero changes made — working tree left exactly as the task executors left it.
- Tests: `uv run pytest --cov=app` → 1841 passed, 0 failed (TOTAL coverage **99%**; theming/ui_settings/caching all 100%); `uv run pytest tests/e2e/test_admin_theme_tab.py -v --no-cov` → **5 passed** in isolation.
- Lint/types: `uv run ruff check .` → All checks passed; `uv run pyright` → 0 errors, 0 warnings.
- Criteria: (1) unset deployment byte-identical, no `#bor-theme` anywhere — ✓ (unit no-op test + E2E reset byte-compare); `rg "BOR_THEME|themes/"` → single hit is the permitted doc-history comment in `frontend/index.html`. (2) admin-only gate + 403s for anonymous and token users — ✓ (E2E test 3). (3) saved theme inline before `</head>` on every page incl. `/shared/<token>`, computed `--brand` on first paint for admin + anonymous — ✓ (E2E test 2 + unit). (4) reset → byte-identical; 5 contrast pairs warn <4.5:1, non-blocking — ✓ (E2E tests 4–5). (5) suite green, >90% coverage, lint clean — ✓. (6) commit deferred to harness per rules.
- Notable: `.agents/PLAN.md` is absent from the repo — the phase overview's Design section was used as the binding spec; no deviation resulted.
- Next pending phase: **none** — 91 is the last phase in `todo/`.
Single consolidated commit for four completed, validated phases (77, 78,
79, 80). The pipeline run left all work uncommitted because the harness
commits only with PHASE_COMMIT=1 while child executors are forbidden from
committing; the phases themselves all passed validation and moved to
.agents/phases/complete/.
Phase 77 — navbar view refresh
- router.js dispatches bor:view-refresh on re-show / active re-click /
popstate (gated on wasMounted; first show and boot exempt)
- History / RAG / Sources / Tuning re-fetch on refresh (admin branch);
Chat deliberately excluded (stream survival)
- History "Refresh" button (admin-only, in-flight disable + status line)
- New story suite tests/e2e/test_navbar_refresh.py (7 tests)
Phase 78 — static background
- Removed the animated glow layers; static 44px grid over the flat --bg
canvas; default and reduced-motion renders byte-identical
- Updated background/theme E2E suites; removed bg-glow test pins
Phase 79 — API tokens
- api_tokens model + migration 0012; hash-only token service
- Admin tokens API + Tokens admin view; POST /api/token-auth;
live-revoking require_user on chat / suggestions / document content
- Frontend token gate with localStorage cache; anonymous E2E suites
migrated to token login
- New story suite tests/e2e/test_api_tokens.py (9 tests)
Phase 80 — history suggestion chips
- last_questions() endpoint with SEED fallback; startNewChat() refetch
- Seed-semantics docs (config.py, .env.example, README)
- Integration state matrix + E2E suite rewritten to the 4 chip states
Also included: phase-76 report artifacts and the repo restore-test-db
skill (previously untracked), scripts/* ruff fixes from phase 77.
Final gate state (phase 80 final pass, covers everything above):
- uv run pytest --cov=app → 1637 passed, 0 failed, app/ coverage 99%
- uv run ruff check . && uv run pyright → clean, 0 errors
- Per-phase story E2E suites green in isolation
Phase 33 (story: .agent/user_stories/cache-busting.md).
- app/core/caching.py: asset_version() — git short SHA (a commit is a
deploy), stable content-hash fallback for non-git checkouts, "dev"
for a missing static dir; computed once per process. CachingMiddleware
— the five HTML pages revalidate (no-cache) with ?v=<token> asset refs
rewritten in flight; /assets/* is public, max-age=31536000, immutable;
everything else (all /api/*, the SSE chat stream in particular) passes
through byte-identical.
- tests/e2e/test_cache_busting.py: fresh-Chromium wire assertions —
document no-cache, versioned CSS/JS request URLs sharing one token,
immutable asset headers, /api/health baseline headers, SSE chat to
done (mock LLM).
- README 'Caching / deploys' section + story file.
Also fixed two prod-image defects surfaced by this phase's podman smoke
(the full app would not boot):
- Containerfile: ship the scripts/ package — app/api/sync.py (phase 32)
imports scripts.git_sync / scripts.import_docs at module level, so the
container crashed on boot (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named
'scripts').
- compose.yaml: pass BOR_ADMIN_PASSWORD / BOR_SESSION_SECRET through to
the app service (:- defaults keep 'podman compose up -d db' working;
the app's own fail-loud gate still names missing admin auth).
Smoke: podman compose --profile prod up -d on a fresh image + a fresh
Chromium profile — /, /sources.html and /login.html all served
Cache-Control: no-cache; all 8 asset requests versioned with one shared
token (content-hash fallback inside the image — no .git there);
/assets/* immutable for a year.
