mdedit/ is gone. Its functionality moved into browse's preview plugin
(browse/js/preview-markdown.js) — YAML front matter editing, outline,
and on-demand DOCX/HTML/PDF download all happen there. Browse is the
default_tool for working/ + reviewing/ as of the previous commit, so
existing URLs of the form /<project>/working land on browse without
operator action.
Removed:
• mdedit/ source tree (Toast UI app, CSS, JS, template, build.sh)
• zddc/internal/apps/embedded/mdedit.html (//go:embed blob)
• tests/mdedit.spec.js + the "mdedit" project in playwright.config.js
• mdedit entries in zddc/internal/apps/embed.go (//go:embed, var,
switch case in EmbeddedBytes)
• "mdedit" in zddc/internal/zddc/validate.go AppNames + the matching
error-message app list
• "mdedit.html" branch in zddc/internal/apps/handler.go MatchAppHTML
• mdedit case in tests (handler_test.go, validate_test.go,
zddchandler_test.go) — test fixtures now use browse/classifier
• mdedit from build (per-tool build.sh loop, tool-list literals,
composer cards) and shared/build-lib.sh ZDDC_RELEASE_TOOLS
• mdedit from freshen-channel's tool list and usage banner
• mdedit-specific paragraphs in AGENTS.md and ARCHITECTURE.md;
Markdown Editor section in ARCHITECTURE.md rewritten to point at
browse/js/preview-markdown.js
• mdedit from CLAUDE.md, README.md, zddc/README.md tool lists
Historical mdedit_v*.html / mdedit_v*.html.sig files in
/srv/zddc/releases/ on the deploy host are immutable history — they
stay where they are. The next ./build release cut will simply not
produce new mdedit_v* artifacts.
Migrates from in-repo orphan `website` branch + LFS to a two-repo +
deploy-host model so source editing is fully decoupled from live state.
- Source code stays here (codeberg.org/VARASYS/ZDDC).
- Hand-edited website content moves to a separate Codeberg repo
(codeberg.org/VARASYS/ZDDC-website, cloned at ~/src/zddc-website/).
- Live site is /srv/zddc/ on the deploy host (Caddy bind-mount),
populated by ./deploy from this repo's dist/release-output/ plus
~/src/zddc-website/.
- Releases are no longer in any git history — reproducible from
<tool>-vX.Y.Z tags via `./build release X.Y.Z`. No LFS, no
Codeberg release assets.
Build/deploy split:
- ./build (no arg) is source-only; nothing in dist/release-output/
or /srv/zddc/ is touched.
- ./build alpha|beta|release seeds dist/release-output/ from
/srv/zddc/releases/ (preserving symlinks), then mutates the
channel(s) being cut on top. The bundle is always a complete
intended-live snapshot, so the verifier sees a complete world
and ./deploy --releases (rsync --delete-after) replaces live
state cleanly.
- New ./deploy wraps the rsync flow with --content / --releases
subcommands.
Docs updated to reflect the new model: CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md,
ARCHITECTURE.md, zddc/README.md, README.md, .gitignore, shared/
build-lib.sh comments, deprecated zddc/release.sh message.

Moves website source + release artifacts off `main` and into a new
orphan branch named `website` in this same Codeberg repo. A `git worktree`
of that branch — typically at ~/src/zddc-website/ — is what the system
Caddy now bind-mounts and serves at zddc.varasys.io. Decoupling source
from the live site means editing source can no longer accidentally
affect what's published.
Layout going forward:
- ~/src/zddc/ — main worktree (this branch, source only).
- ~/src/zddc-website/ — git worktree of the `website` branch:
hand-edited content + LFS-tracked release
artifacts (server binaries) + regular-git
HTML tool releases + symlinks.
- Caddy bind-mount swapped: ~/src/zddc/website → ~/src/zddc-website
(quadlet at /etc/containers/systemd/caddy.container, restarted).
Build pipeline now writes releases to
${ZDDC_DEPLOY_RELEASES_DIR:-$HOME/src/zddc-website/releases}.
- build.sh: RELEASES_DIR points at the env var
- shared/build-lib.sh: promote_release honors the env var, falls
back to the legacy in-repo path so any
standalone single-tool release on a checkout
that still has website/ keeps working
- freshen-channel: passes ZDDC_DEPLOY_RELEASES_DIR through to
the worktree-based build
Docs (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, .gitignore) updated for
the new layout. The 51 MB of website/ blobs stays in main's history
(no force-push); over time Codeberg's GC will pack them down.

Add ./freshen-channel <tool> <channel> at the repo root for the
"drag alpha/beta forward to current stable" workflow. The script
uses a temporary git worktree at the latest <tool>-v* tag so the
main worktree's HEAD is never touched — no checkout, no stash, no
race against in-progress dev. Build runs inside the worktree, the
resulting <tool>_<channel>.html is copied back into the main
repo's website/releases/, worktree is removed.
The on-page label of a freshened build is `<channel> · <today> ·
<stable-tag-sha>` — the SHA pins which stable was the source, so
anyone debugging can `git checkout <sha>` to reproduce.
Smoke-tested:
./freshen-channel archive alpha → archive_alpha.html with
"alpha · 2026-04-27 · ea385b5"
./freshen-channel transmittal beta → transmittal_beta.html with
"beta · 2026-04-27 · ea385b5"
./freshen-channel foobar alpha → usage error
./freshen-channel archive stable → usage error
AGENTS.md gains a "Channel discipline (MUST rules)" subsection
codifying the protocol the build system can't enforce:
1. Stable doesn't regress — files are immutable; bump for fixes.
2. No backports — bump and let users update pins.
3. Alpha/beta are mutable — never pin in production.
4. Stale-channel rule — after every stable release, freshen alpha
and beta so neither is older than current stable. NOT optional.
5. Hotfix path — direct stable cut allowed, no beta soak required;
freshen alpha + beta after.
6. Beta soak (recommended) — a few days exposure before promoting.
Plus a "Freshen helper" subsection documenting the script.
