Download hrefs were built with form encoding, which turns the spaces in
"The Daily EPUB - <date>.epub" into "+"; in a URL path that is a literal
plus, so /files/epub/<name> never matched the file. They now use the
same path-segment percent-encoder the OPDS feed already uses, and the
download-menu test follows the rendered link and expects 200.
The Read in BookOrbit button renders only for admins, and the
/issues/{date}/read redirect answers 403 to other signed-in users.

Signed-in issue and article pages now carry an admin-only link to the
article's dashboard page. The separate Download EPUB / X4 EPUB / XTC
buttons become one "Download EPUB" button (Standard edition first) with a
no-JS <details> menu listing every available format and its size.

The signed-in issue page shows a Read in BookOrbit button (only when the
integration is active and the Standard EPUB exists) that hits
/issues/{date}/read. The route redirects to the cached BookOrbit reader
URL, or resolves the ids through OPDS on first click and caches them;
?refresh=1 re-resolves. Not indexed yet is a 503, upstream failures 502.
Includes the implementation plan.

The origin was 3–8 ms per page, almost all of it per-statement overhead:
an issue page ran two statements per pick (~55 on a 25-article issue) and
every signed-in page wrote its session row back because `take_flash`
called `Session::remove`, which marks the session modified even when the
key is absent.
- `Db::get_articles` loads an issue's articles and their social rows in
two statements; both branches of `web::issue::load` use it. The
single-id and batch queries share one projection via a macro.
- `take_flash` reads before removing, and touches a signed-in session at
most once a day so the inactivity expiry still slides. Anonymous
requests never create a session.
- `Server-Timing: app;dur=<ms>` on every response, outermost layer.
- `reject_early_data`: 425 for a non-safe method that arrived as TLS 0-RTT
data, so nginx `ssl_early_data on` is safe (RFC 8470 §5.2).
- `[profile.release]`: fat LTO, one codegen unit (binary 46 → 29 MB).
Docs: the Cloudflare proxy was retired on 2026-09-05 after measuring
+43 ms per signed-in page from Boston; README reverse-proxy section is
now the direct setup (upstream keepalive, 0-RTT lines) and the CDN
runbook carries a retired-status banner.
Dev seed, app-side: `/` 21 → 5 statements, 3.7 → 1.0 ms; `/feed.xml`
44 → 12, 9.1 → 3.0 ms; session writes per signed-in page 1 → 0.

The edge-purge integration was reverted in the previous commit; this
finishes the job. Public pages, the feed and /issues.json now say
`public, max-age=300` for browsers and shared caches alike, the code
comments and README explain why the longer s-maxage plus purge design
was dropped, and the rollout runbook loses its purge step, marks the
HTML cache rule optional, and warns to keep the record DNS-only until
the Universal SSL certificate is active.

An audit of the live site ahead of the Cloudflare move found three ways a
cache-everything rule would have gone wrong.
First, several routes named no policy at all — `/login`, `/issues.json`,
`/files/epub/*`, `/files/xtc/*`, `/robots.txt`, the error pages — so the edge
would have applied its own default TTL (Cloudflare: two hours on a 200). For
`/files/*` that means an authenticated download becoming a publicly cached one.
Those routes now say what they mean, and `security_headers` fails closed: a
response that set no `Cache-Control` gets `no-store`, so a route added later
cannot silently inherit the CDN's default. Everything cookie- or Basic-auth
gated (`/files/*`, `/opds*`) is `private, no-store` on every response, 401s and
404s included.
Second, the public pages said `max-age=300` alone. They now say
`public, max-age=300, s-maxage=86400`: five minutes for the browser, a day for
the edge, which is safe because publishing purges the edge. A request carrying
a `daily_session=` cookie still gets `private, no-store`.
Third, `/static/favicon.svg` and `/static/speculation.json` were referenced
without `?v=` while being served `immutable` for a year — editing either one
could never have reached a browser again. Both are now in the `ASSET_VERSION`
hash and referenced with the version, and `static_asset` only promises a year
when the URL actually carries `?v=`; a bare `/static/…` URL gets an hour and
revalidates against the same ETag.

- Issue pages highlight Archive instead of Latest unless the issue is the
newest one (IssueView::is_latest), with a router test.
- The ears row is empty by default and says "Dashboard" on dashboard pages;
"Morning edition" only survives on the empty-state hero.
- Run page: the Feeds card table is fixed-layout and truncates long feed
names with the full title on hover instead of pushing the entries column
out of the card.
- Static assets are content-hashed, so serve them immutable for a year;
preload both Newsreader faces and use font-display: block so a cache
revalidation never paints the fallback serif first. Persisted details
state is restored pre-paint from theme.js.
- Cross-document view transitions (140 ms fade, masthead held still) and
Speculation Rules (prerender reader pages, prefetch dashboard pages on
hover) served from /static/speculation.json via the Speculation-Rules
header, which the CSP would otherwise block inline. No client router.
- Dashboard nav gets the same accent underline as the site nav; 40 px
targets for the theme toggle, account link and dashboard nav.

- The open hamburger panel now fills the viewport below the sticky bar
(100dvh, measured bar offset) and locks the page behind it. Locking only
the root element: locking body too made it its own scroll container and
un-stuck the bar.
- Front-page scroll-spy: the current chapter marker, mobile label/counter,
desktop "Chapter N of M" line and both progress bars follow the reader
through "In This Issue"; passed chapters read in ink. The sidebar
auto-scrolls to keep the current chapter in view.
- The sidebar scrollbar sits in a reserved gutter instead of over the text.
- Hamburger cross-fades to a close icon; 44px tap targets on phones.

Signed-in issue pages (issue, article, world, behind) get a chapter list
that marks where the reader is. One `issue_toc` helper builds it for all
four handlers: the picks in issue order numbered across sections, then
World Briefing, Behind the paper and a colophon anchor, with
position/total over the navigable chapters.
At `lg` and up it is a sticky left column with its own sticky header
(issue number, "Chapter N of M", a 2px progress bar); below `lg` the same
`<nav>` collapses behind a sticky hamburger bar and drops down as a
panel that closes on link tap, Escape and outside tap. Without JS the
panel is simply visible; `theme.js` marks the document scripted before
paint so it never flashes open. Article pages advance the progress bar
with scroll position through `requestAnimationFrame`, and the bar is a
`<progress>` element because a percentage width would need an inline
style the CSP forbids.
Also fixes the phone "ears" row from the step 2 review: the row no
longer wraps at 390px, the dateline has a short form below `sm:`, and
the toggle and account link stay on one line.

Resolves the step 1 / step 2 overlap in the issue and world templates:
public entries carry the summary and why lines in the new styling, and the
legacy colophon renders n/a for unknown counts.

Replaces the hand-written stylesheet with a Tailwind CSS v4 source
(src/web/tailwind.css) whose minified build is committed as
src/web/static/app.css and still embedded with include_str!, so the binary
and the test suite never need Node. package.json pins tailwindcss and
@tailwindcss/cli to 4.3.3 and adds css, css:watch and css:check.
Colours are semantic CSS variables swapped per theme and exposed to Tailwind
through @theme inline, so templates write bg-paper/text-ink/border-rule once
and both themes work. theme.js runs synchronously in <head> to set
data-theme before paint; app.js cycles the toggle system -> light -> dark and
persists the choice. Newsreader is self-hosted and served from
web::static_asset with the same ETag/304 logic as the other assets.
Every reader template is restyled: ears row, centred masthead with its rules,
tracked section labels, the drop cap on The Brief, "Why it's here" with its
accent bar, the segmented rating control, prev/next cards, and the colophon
as a two-column definition grid. Dashboard templates are untouched (step 3).
Also fixes a .block collision with Tailwind's display utility, the SVG
`hidden` property that never toggled the theme icon, and points the dev
seed's profile_path at ./dev so previewing cannot rewrite data/profile.md.

Public issue pages and the Atom feed now carry each pick's summary and
'Why it's here' line (bodies, The Brief, World Briefing and comments stay
private). Issues stored before issues.issue_json existed rebuild their
colophon and Behind the paper from issues.report_json / the run row and
candidate_runs, and recover the World Briefing chapter from the EPUB on
disk. The dev seed mirrors that legacy shape.
