The cascade tracer's JSON response now carries:
- Top-level `cascade_mode` (string): the active mode (delegated /
strict). Helps reviewers correlate the visible_start with the mode.
- Top-level `chain.visible_start` (int): chain.VisibleStart(leaf, mode)
— the lowest level whose grants the leaf can see, accounting for any
inherit:false fence in delegated mode (always 0 in strict mode).
- Per-level `inherit` (*bool, omitempty): the level's explicit inherit
value, nil when absent. A reviewer can scan the levels and see which
one fences ancestors.
The level's `exists` flag now also fires for `permissions:` and
`inherit:` entries (previously it only checked Allow/Deny/Admins),
so the response correctly reflects modern .zddc files that use the
permissions map.
Test: TestServeProfileEffectivePolicy_InheritFence builds a vendor-
folder layout, asks the tracer about a my-company user, confirms
decision=false, visible_start=1 (fence at /Vendor/), leaf.Inherit=
&false, root.Inherit=nil.

The fsnotify watcher only sees events the local kernel generates, so on
SMB/CIFS-backed roots (Azure Files) writes from any other client are
invisible — the archive index would silently miss them until pod
restart. Add two backstops:
1. Periodic full re-walk via Index.Rebuild on a configurable interval
(--archive-rescan-interval / ZDDC_ARCHIVE_RESCAN_INTERVAL, default
60s, 0 to disable). Atomically swaps ByProject under the existing
RWMutex; concurrent reads stay safe.
2. Admin-only POST /.profile/reindex that triggers an immediate rebuild
and returns {duration_ms, project_count, tracking_count}, for the
"I just dropped 50 files and don't want to wait" case. Gated by
IsAdmin with the same 404-on-non-admin pattern as the other admin
sub-resources.
Tests: TestRebuild_PicksUpAddsAndDrops covers add+drop semantics and
returned counts; TestServeProfileReindexPOST covers the happy admin
path; matrix entries cover the gate (anonymous/non-admin → 404, admin
GET → 405 method-not-allowed since the route is POST-only).

Eliminates the manual cascade-trace ritual when debugging "why can't
alice see /Project-X" reports. New endpoint returns the resolved
policy chain plus the active decider's verdict in JSON:
GET /.profile/effective-policy?path=/Project-X/sub/&email=alice@…
Response shape:
{
"path": "/Project-X/sub/",
"email": "alice@…",
"decision": true,
"decider_kind": "*policy.InternalDecider",
"chain": {
"has_any_file": true,
"levels": [
{"index": 0, "zddc_path": "/.zddc", "exists": true,
"acl": {...}, "admins": [...],
"matches_email": false, "decision_at_level": "no_match"},
{"index": 1, "zddc_path": "/Project-X/.zddc", "exists": true,
"acl": {...}, "matches_email": true, "decision_at_level": "allow"}
]
}
}
Per-level email matching reuses the same MatchesPattern code the live
evaluator uses, so the trace can never disagree with the actual
verdict — and when ZDDC_OPA_URL points at an external OPA, the
decision goes through that OPA, making the endpoint a useful smoke
test for OPA wiring too.
Admin-only via the existing /.profile gate (404 to non-admins).
Required params; 400 if either is missing or path doesn't escape ROOT.
Test coverage:
* TestServeProfileGateMatrix: anonymous → 404, non-admin → 404,
admin without params → 400 (gate cleared, validator rejected)
* TestServeProfileEffectivePolicy: full payload-shape assertion
against a worked-example fixture (closed project where alice is
allow-listed but bob is not)
Also fixes pre-existing doc drift: README's "Admin Debug Page"
section referenced /.admin/whoami|config|logs but the actual code
mounts /.profile/* (the rename predates this PR; the doc was stale).
Closes the "/.admin/effective-policy debug endpoint" item from the
federal-readiness future-work list.

Four entangled change-sets from one session, committed together because
their file-level overlap (build.sh, docs, embedded/, watcher.go, …) makes
post-hoc separation noisy:
* fix(archive): nested-party + folder-type cascade
transmittalIsUnderVisibleParty short-circuited on the first matched
party segment, only checking the immediately-next segment for a
folder-type marker. Paths like BM/sub/Issued/<txn> bypassed the Issued
toggle entirely. Replaced with isUnderHiddenFolderType (full-path) +
any-segment party match. Eight new Playwright cases pin the contract
in tests/archive-cascade.spec.js.
* refactor(zddc-server): scope .archive index by project
archive.Index now buckets by top-level segment
(.ByProject[<project>].ByTracking[<tracking>]). Resolve and AllEntries
take a project parameter; handler extracts it from contextPath's first
segment. /.archive/ at root returns 404 — stable refs must be
project-rooted. Within-project (tracking, rev) collisions emit a WARN
with both paths. Cross-project tracking-number duplicates no longer
collide.
* perf(zddc-server): lazy-load expensive bits of the profile page
serveProfilePage now ships a minimal shell: Email, EmailHeader,
IsSuperAdmin (root .zddc only). Visible projects + admin subtrees +
editable scaffolds populate client-side via /.profile/access. Subtree-
admin scaffolds live in <template id="tmpl-subtree-admin">; pure
non-admins receive no live admin form. ScanZddcFiles now memoized,
invalidated on .zddc events by the watcher and writer helpers.
* feat: lockstep release + redesigned releases page
sh build.sh --release [version|alpha|beta] is the canonical lockstep
cut: every tool (5 HTML + zddc-server) bumps to the same coordinated
version. zddc-server binaries now committed under website/releases/
with the same cascade chain as HTML tools (no more Codeberg release-
asset publication). zddc/release.sh deprecated (kept as a guard);
shared/publish-codeberg-release.sh removed.
Releases page redesigned as an action-first install guide: hero +
version dropdown that rewires every download link, channel chips for
always-visible alpha/beta access (state-aware labels: "tracks stable"
vs "active dev"), Path A (zddc-server with platform auto-detect from
UA), Path B (5 standalone tool HTMLs), version-pinning empowerment
narrative (drop-a-copy vs .zddc apps: cascade), channels explainer.
Channel-link verifier asserts every <tool>_{stable,beta,alpha}.html
resolves at the end of every build. Bootstrap-friendly: zddc-server
artifact checks skip until the first lockstep cut anchors the chain.
Tests: 167 Playwright + all Go packages green.
Docs: CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, zddc/README.md updated.

Replaces the super-admin-only /.admin/ surface with a public-by-default
/.profile/ page that layers admin tools server-side based on the
caller's effective access:
- Universal (everyone, anonymous included): identity card, effective
access summary, theme picker, localStorage utilities (export / import
/ clear, landing-presets viewer).
- Subtree admins additionally see: editable .zddc files list (linking
to the existing form-based editor) and a "Create new project folder"
form.
- Super-admins additionally see: server config, log viewer, whoami
headers (the old /.admin/ JSON endpoints, repointed under /.profile/).
Project creation is gated on CanEditZddc(newDir) — the same strict-
ancestor rule that already governs .zddc writes — so no new authority
concept is introduced. ValidateProjectName mirrors the existing
reserved-prefix policy (no leading '.' or '_', no path separators).
/.admin/* is hard-cut: no redirect shim. Old URLs fall through to the
existing dot-prefix guard and 404. Custom CSS file rename: prefer
<root>/.profile.css, fall back to legacy <root>/.admin.css.
Per-resource 404 leakage gates preserved on whoami / config / logs /
zddc / projects so non-admin callers cannot detect the existence of
admin-only sub-resources.
Tree-wide gofmt -w applied as a side-effect.
