Three UI cleanups against the admin/browse chrome.
Red admin-mode frame (shared/elevation.css)
Was: body { outline: 3px ... ; outline-offset: -3px } — an outline
doesn't reflow content, so in tools that butt their content to the
viewport edge (browse split-pane, archive grid) the frame painted
on top of the first 3px of content.
Now: body.is-elevated::after { position:fixed; inset:0; border:3px;
pointer-events:none; z-index:9200 }. The frame lives in its own
fixed layer above all content, so it never overlaps or steals
clicks; content layout is unchanged.
Project-stage strip (Archive · Working · Staging · Reviewing)
Low-value chrome. Removed entirely:
- delete shared/nav.js + shared/nav.css
- drop the include from every tool's build.sh
(browse, transmittal, form, archive, landing, tables, classifier)
- delete tests/nav.spec.js
- rebuild tables.html (the //go:embed'd baked-in copy)
Project navigation already happens through the directory tree in
browse and the URL bar; the strip duplicated breadcrumb information
without adding capability.

Polish pass after the big refactor in 2d114fc.
== Header elevation slot propagated ==
shared/elevation.{js,css} surface a header checkbox for admins.
30-minute sudo-style cookie window (Max-Age=1800, SameSite=Lax).
Only renders when /.profile/access reports can_elevate=true; quiet
for non-admins. Slot added to all 7 tool templates and concat'd
into all 7 build.sh files; admin in any tool now sees the toggle.
Three text-rename ride-alongs in archive/classifier/transmittal
templates: "Add Local Directory" → "Use Local Directory" (the same
rename that landed in browse earlier in this branch).
== Docs ==
- CLAUDE.md gets an "Admin elevation is sudo-style" paragraph in
the "Things that bite if you forget" section.
- AGENTS.md gets a dedicated "Admin elevation (sudo-style)" section
alongside "Bearer tokens" — same depth as the existing auth docs.
== Helper file splits ==
The retired form editor's shared helpers got bundled into a single
zddc_admin.go in the cleanup; that name is now misleading. Split by
concern:
- admin_helpers.go: hasAnyAdminScope (the only admin-specific helper)
- paths.go: resolvePath, urlPathOf, chainDirs (URL ↔ filesystem path
math — used by several profile / zddc-file handlers)
- profile_assets.go (renamed from zddc_admin_assets.go): custom CSS
pipeline. URL renamed from /.profile/zddc/assets/ → /.profile/assets/
since /.profile/zddc/ no longer hosts an editor.
- treeEntry moves to profilehandler.go (alongside AccessView, its
only consumer).
- writeError moves to profileprojects.go (its only consumer).
== Smell cleanup ==
- zddc.HasAnyAdminGrant(fsRoot, email) — new elevation-independent
primitive that walks the cascade and reports whether email is named
in any admin: list anywhere. Replaces the synthetic-elevated probe
hack in enumerateAccess (`Principal{Email, Elevated: true}` was
"lying" to the elevation gate to ask what it would say). The handler's
hasAnyAdminScope collapses to a 4-line wrapper that gates on
p.Elevated and delegates.
- Access-log middleware records `elevated` per request, so forensics
can distinguish "admin acting as user" from "admin exercising power."
- browse/js/app.js's ?file= deep link walks multi-segment paths. Each
intermediate segment is matched + expanded; the leaf gets
selected/previewed. Auto-shows hidden when any segment starts with
. or _. Silently no-ops on unresolved segments.

System-default font stack ('-apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI,
…') is the textbook generic admin-tool look. The tools have a real point
of view (engineering documents, traceability, immutability); the
typography should reflect that.
Picks:
--font → IBM Plex Sans (400 + 600). UI body text. Distinctive
engineering sans with tabular nums and proper figures.
--font-display → Source Serif 4 (600). Headings, page titles,
.app-header__title. Reads as "document" not "UI label."
--font-mono → unchanged. Platform mono fonts are already excellent
and engineering tools rarely benefit from a custom mono.
Wiring:
- Raw .woff2 files live in shared/fonts/ (~60 KB total, latin subset,
SIL OFL 1.1 — both families)
- shared/fonts.css is base64-inlined data URIs for those three fonts
(~80 KB after b64 overhead). Generated once from the snippet in
shared/fonts/README.md.
- Every tool's build.sh prepends shared/fonts.css before shared/base.css
so @font-face is parsed before any rule references the family names.
- Headings (h1-h6) and .app-header__title now use var(--font-display);
.app-header__title bumped 17→18px and letter-spacing reset since the
serif doesn't need the original sans-text tightening.
- table/code/.tabular-nums get font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums so
tracking-number columns align vertically.
"Ship the record player with the record": zero CDN dependency at render
time. Tools render identically offline and online. Per-tool dist sizes
grew by ~80 KB.

Removes every runtime CDN load. The "ship the record player with the
record" philosophy: a downloaded .html file works offline against any
file the user can open, with no network dependency at runtime.
Newly vendored under shared/vendor/:
- xlsx.full.min.js (SheetJS, 928 KB) — XLSX/XLS preview
- utif.min.js (UTIF, 57 KB) — TIFF preview
Already there but now used by mdedit too:
- jszip.min.js, docx-preview.min.js
Call sites updated to drop the `await loadLibrary(URL)` pattern —
since the vendor JS is concatenated into the inline <script> at build
time, window.XLSX / window.JSZip / window.UTIF / window.docx are
available synchronously from page load.
Per-tool changes:
- archive/build.sh: +xlsx, +utif
- classifier/build.sh: +xlsx, +utif
- transmittal/build.sh: +xlsx, +utif
- mdedit/build.sh: +jszip, +docx-preview, +xlsx, +utif
(mdedit was the only tool not yet
bundling any of the preview deps)
- browse/build.sh: +utif
- archive/js/table.js, classifier/js/preview.js,
transmittal/js/files-preview.js, mdedit/js/file-tree.js (×2):
drop the `await loadLibrary('…cdn…')` lines.
- shared/preview-lib.js:
drop the loadLibrary(UTIF) / loadLibrary(JSZip) wrappers; assume
window.UTIF and window.JSZip are present.
Net bundle-size delta after baking:
archive: +990 KB → ~1.47 MB
browse: +57 KB → ~292 KB
classifier: +990 KB → ~1.43 MB
mdedit: +1100 KB → ~2.09 MB
transmittal: +990 KB → ~1.63 MB
Docs (AGENTS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md) updated: removed the "runtime CDN
loading exception" paragraph and the table row that flagged xlsx as
CDN-loaded.

The .app-header__logo SVG was decorative on every tool. Web's
strongest convention is "click logo → go home" — so users tapping
it expecting that fallback got nothing. Now the logo is wrapped in
an anchor whose href reflects the URL the page was loaded from:
file:// → no wrap (no server home to point at)
/ → wrap, href=/ (deployment root)
/index.html / /<tool>.html → wrap, href=/ (root, no project)
/<project>/... → wrap, href=/<project> (project landing)
The wrap happens client-side at DOMContentLoaded via shared/logo.js,
loaded by every tool's build.sh after toast/nav. Idempotent — a
template-supplied anchor or a second mount call is a no-op.
The companion shared/logo.css adds a subtle hover/focus affordance
(opacity 0.82, focus ring) so the logo reads as clickable without
otherwise altering its visual weight. Tools opt out by setting
window.zddc.logo.disabled = true before DOMContentLoaded (e.g. for
deployments that pin the logo to an external destination).
Five Playwright tests (tests/logo.spec.js) lock the contract:
no-wrap on file://, href=/ at root, href=/<project> in project
subtree, aria-label matches target, idempotent re-mount.

Adds a thin nav strip directly under the app-header showing the four
canonical lifecycle stages from the transmittal-workflow spec:
archive · working · staging · reviewing. Each is a link to that
stage's directory under the current project. Current stage is
highlighted (bold + primary color, aria-current="page"). Strip
mounts as a sibling of .app-header on DOMContentLoaded — no
template changes needed in any tool.
Render rules (shared/nav.js shouldRender):
- location.protocol must be http: or https: (file:// has no project
structure to navigate within)
- a project segment must be detectable as the first path segment
(when it isn't a tool HTML file like /index.html or
/archive.html?projects=A,B). Multi-project view at the deployment
root therefore shows no strip.
Stage URL targets:
- Archive → <project>/archive.html (project-root archive view)
- Working → <project>/working/ (directory listing — mdedit auto-served)
- Staging → <project>/staging/ (directory listing — transmittal auto-served)
- Reviewing → <project>/reviewing/ (directory listing)
Convention-driven, not probed: if a deployment doesn't have one of
these folders the link returns 404. Operators on non-standard layouts
can opt out by setting window.zddc.nav.disabled = true before
DOMContentLoaded.
This pairs with the previous landing-tool change (single-project
click → <project>/archive.html). Together they give the user
both URL-bar manipulation AND visible navigation across the four
canonical project stages.
Five Playwright tests in tests/nav.spec.js exercise:
- non-render at deployment root
- render + active stage on <project>/archive.html
- render + active stage deep inside <project>/working/foo/mdedit.html
- canonical link targets
- mount position is sibling of .app-header

Promote classifier's local toast (classifier/css/base.css + showToast
in classifier/js/excel.js) into shared/toast.{js,css}. Every tool's
build.sh now concatenates them, so window.zddc.toast(msg, level, opts)
is callable from any tool.
API:
window.zddc.toast('Saved.', 'success');
window.zddc.toast('Could not load: ' + err.message, 'error');
window.zddc.toast('Note', 'info', { durationMs: 3000 });
Levels: info (default) | success | warning | error. Single-toast
policy — a second call replaces the first. Click anywhere on the
toast to dismiss. ARIA: error → role=alert/aria-live=assertive,
others → role=status/aria-live=polite.
Class prefix is .zddc-toast (BEM-ish) to avoid colliding with any
tool-local .toast rules. Classifier's existing showToast now
delegates to window.zddc.toast — call sites in excel.js +
selection.js are unchanged. Classifier's local .toast CSS block
deleted in favor of the shared one.
This commit only EXPOSES the API. Replacing the ~25 alert() call
sites scattered across archive/transmittal/mdedit/classifier with
toast calls is left as follow-up — each alert needs per-call review
to decide if it's truly non-blocking.
Five Playwright tests in tests/toast.spec.js lock the contract:
API exposure, level mapping, ARIA roles, single-toast replace,
click-to-dismiss.

Replaces the binary acl.allow/deny model with five permission verbs
(r/w/c/d/a) and first-class roles, and adds an authenticated file API
(PUT/DELETE/POST move/mkdir) so the HTML tools can edit-in-place over
HTTP. Closes the AC-3(7) and AC-6 federal-readiness gaps.
File API (zddc/internal/handler/fileapi.go)
- PUT <new> → action c
- PUT <existing> → action w
- PUT <.zddc> → action a (CanEditZddc strict-ancestor rule)
- DELETE → action d
- POST mkdir → action c (auto-writes creator-owned .zddc when the
parent is Incoming/Working/Staging)
- POST move → action w on src + c on dst, atomic via os.Rename
- Optional If-Match for optimistic concurrency, --max-write-bytes cap,
audit log emits a structured file_write event per operation.
Permission model (zddc/internal/zddc/{acl,file,roles,cascade_mode}.go)
- acl.permissions: { principal → verb-set } map; principals are email
patterns or role names. Empty verb set is an explicit deny.
- roles: { name → members } definitions, available at the level they
declare and all descendants. Closer-to-leaf shadows ancestor.
- Legacy acl.allow/deny still work; they fold into permissions at
parse time (allow → "rwcd", deny → "").
- Cascade walks leaf→root; first level with any matching entry wins;
the union of matching verb sets at that level decides.
- --cascade-mode=strict adds a root→leaf ancestor-deny pre-pass so an
ancestor explicit-deny is absolute (NIST AC-6). Default delegated
preserves the existing commercial behavior.
Special folders (zddc/internal/zddc/special.go)
- Incoming / Working / Staging: mkdir auto-writes a .zddc into the new
subdir granting created_by + that email rwcda directly. Same form
operators write by hand; creator can edit it later to add others.
- Issued / Received: server-enforced WORM split. Cascade grants
inherited from above the WORM folder are masked to r only; grants
placed at-or-below the WORM folder retain r,c. Operators grant
write-once (cr) to the doc controller via an explicit .zddc at the
Issued/Received folder. Admins exempt — only escape hatch.
Browser polyfill (shared/zddc-source.js)
- HttpDirectoryHandle + HttpFileHandle implement the FS Access API
surface (values, getFileHandle, createWritable, removeEntry,
queryPermission/requestPermission) over zddc-server's listing JSON
and file API. Existing tools written against showDirectoryPicker
work unchanged.
- detectServerRoot() returns { handle, status }: tools auto-load on
HTTP, surface a clear "no permission to list" message on 403, and
fall back to the welcome screen on 0.
- classifier renames take the atomic POST move path on HTTP-backed
handles; mdedit and transmittal route reads/writes through the
polyfill so prior FS-API code paths cover both modes.
Tests
- zddc/internal/zddc/{cascade_mode,roles,special,acl}_test.go cover
delegated vs strict, role membership / shadowing / legacy fallback,
WORM split semantics, verb-set parser round-trip.
- zddc/internal/handler/fileapi_test.go now also covers role-based
vendor scenarios, WORM blocking vendor & doc controller writes,
explicit Issued .zddc unlocking the cr drop-box, admin bypass,
auto-ownership on mkdir, and strict-mode lockouts.
Docs
- ARCHITECTURE.md + zddc/README.md document the verb model, role
syntax, special-folder behaviors, cascade-mode flag, and full file
API surface. Federal-readiness gap analysis strikes AC-3(7) and
AC-6.

Same pattern as the browse fix. archive, transmittal, classifier
previously CDN-loaded jszip + docx-preview on first preview of a
.zip / .docx file via shared/preview-lib.js's loadLibrary helper.
That meant each first-preview blocked on a CDN round-trip + parse,
and broke entirely under restrictive networks or CSPs.
Vendor both libs under shared/vendor/ and concat them at the top of
each tool's build, ahead of init.js. window.JSZip + window.docx are
now defined immediately on page load. Drop the redundant loadLibrary
calls (and classifier's stray <script src="cdn..."> tag in the
template, plus archive's bespoke loadJSZip helper in export.js).
xlsx (SheetJS) intentionally stays CDN-loaded — at ~900 KB it's too
large to inline, and only fires on .xlsx preview which is a rarer
path.
Bundle size impact (uncompressed):
archive: 304 KB → 476 KB (+172 KB)
transmittal: 449 KB → 621 KB (+172 KB)
classifier: 252 KB → 424 KB (+172 KB)
With the gzip middleware (~75% reduction on HTML) and ETag-cached
revalidation now in place, the wire-size delta is ~40 KB per tool
on the first load and 0 on every subsequent load until redeploy.
Adds shared/preview-lib.js with two cross-tool renderers:
- renderTiff (UTIF.js, lazy-loaded from CDN; PDF-style toolbar with
page nav, zoom, fit-width/fit-page; multi-page TIFFs decode lazily)
- renderZipListing (JSZip; sortable name/size/modified table, sticky
header, host-grouped paths)
Wired into the four tools that have a preview surface (archive, classifier,
mdedit, transmittal). Cross-document compatible so the same renderer works
for popup-window tools (archive/classifier/transmittal) and inline tools
(mdedit). Archive previously had no image branch at all — now previews
JPG/PNG/GIF/WebP/BMP/SVG natively, plus TIFF via UTIF, plus the ZIP listing.
Adds the dark-blue rounded-square favicon to each app's header (left of
the title) and to the website navigation. Single inline SVG, sized via
.app-header__logo (in shared/base.css) for tools and .brand-logo (in
website/css/style.css) for the website. Self-contained — the SVG carries
its own background, no wrapper styling needed.

Removes the codeberg.org/varasys/zddc-server registry image, which had
no remaining consumer outside this shop. The two chart Dockerfiles
(tnd-zddc-chart) now compile zddc-server from source at build time,
fetching the right tag from a Codeberg release. release-image.sh,
zddc/Containerfile, and zddc/podman-compose.yaml are gone.
Build artifacts (HTML tools + zddc-server binaries) move from
website/releases/ in this repo to Codeberg release assets attached to
git tags. The website at zddc.varasys.io serves them by reverse-
proxying /releases/<tag>/<asset> to the corresponding Codeberg URL,
so consumers (zddc-use, level-2 bootstrap stubs, the chart
Dockerfiles) only ever talk to zddc.varasys.io.
Releases page becomes server-rendered static HTML regenerated on each
build via a single Codeberg API call. A small website/releases/manifest.json
maps <tool>-<channel> → tag for runtime channel resolution by zddc-use
and the level-2 stubs.
Files added:
- shared/publish-codeberg-release.sh — POSIX-sh helper that creates a
Codeberg release for a tag (sets prerelease flag from tag suffix)
and uploads/replaces release assets idempotently. Sourced by
build-lib.sh and zddc/release.sh.
- zddc/release.sh — replaces release-image.sh. Tags + cross-compiles
binaries via native Go (no podman needed; install Go) + uploads to
Codeberg release assets. No image build, no registry push.
Files modified:
- shared/build-lib.sh — promote_release tags + uploads via the helper
for stable AND alpha/beta now (alpha/beta were untagged before).
update_alpha removed; per-tool build.sh files no longer mirror to
website/releases/<tool>_alpha.html on plain dev builds.
- build.sh — prefers native go build over the old podman-based
cross-compile (which is gone with Containerfile). build_releases_index
queries the Codeberg API once and writes static HTML + manifest.json,
with graceful fallback when the API is unreachable.
- bootstrap/level2.html.tmpl — fetches manifest.json to resolve
channel → tag, then fetches the asset from /releases/<tag>/<asset>
(Caddy proxy). Replaces the old /releases/<tool>_<channel>.html flat
URL pattern. Operators with curl'd level-2 stubs need to re-issue
them — this is a breaking change.
- AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md — rewritten to describe the new flow.
- .gitignore — releases/ artifacts now expected to be on Codeberg, not
committed locally.
NOT in this commit (deferred until $CODEBERG_TOKEN is provisioned):
- Backfilling existing tags as Codeberg releases.
- Cleanup commit: git rm-ing the existing artifacts in website/releases/.
Until backfill happens, those files are how operators with old
bootstrap stubs still get content. Once Codeberg has the assets,
drop them.
- The Caddy reverse-proxy config on zddc.varasys.io.
Operator-side changes (not in this repo):
- tnd-zddc-chart Dockerfile.prod and Dockerfile (dev) need updating
to compile from source rather than `FROM codeberg.org/...:stable`.
Done in a separate commit on that repo.
- Caddyfile rule for the /releases/<tag>/<asset> reverse-proxy.

Bundles a stretch of in-progress work across the SPA tools so the
tree returns to a coherent shippable state ahead of cutting a new
zddc-server stable image:
- landing: substantial rework of the project picker (sortable/filterable
table, presets refactor, ?projects= filter, ?v= channel propagation,
loading/error states)
- archive: presets cleanup, source.js refactor, filtering/url-state
alignment with the landing page
- mdedit: file-system module split, resizer, file-tree improvements,
base/toc styling tweaks
- transmittal/classifier: small template touch-ups for shared chrome
- shared: build-lib.sh helpers, new favicon.svg
- bootstrap, build.sh: pick up the channel-aware install/track zip
generation
- tests: new landing.spec.js, expanded archive/mdedit/build-label specs
- docs: CLAUDE.md picks up the zddc-server section and freshens the
alpha-build exception note
- regenerated artifacts: install.zip, track-{alpha,beta,stable}.zip,
*_alpha.html — these are produced by `sh build.sh` and per project
convention are committed alongside the source changes

Every plain `sh tool/build.sh` invocation now reasserts a relative symlink
website/releases/<tool>_alpha.html → ../../<tool>/dist/<tool>.html so the
alpha hyperlinks always serve whatever dist currently holds. Idempotent — git
sees no churn on rebuild. `--release alpha` still wins by overwriting the
symlink with a real "alpha · <date> · <sha>" file; the next plain build
re-symlinks it.
Five existing alpha files become typechanges (regular file → symlink) — the
one-time migration cost. The reassertion survives deployment because the
website is served directly from the working tree.

ZDDC — Zero Day Document Control. A file-naming convention plus five
single-file HTML tools (archive, transmittal, classifier, mdedit,
landing) and an optional Go HTTP server (zddc-server) with ACL and a
virtual archive index. Self-contained, offline-capable, dependency-free.
See README.md for an overview, AGENTS.md and ARCHITECTURE.md for the
build/release/architecture detail, bootstrap/README.md for the
two-level deployment install pattern, and zddc/README.md for the
HTTP server.
