- Add SaveMetaFn callback pattern: meta plugins receive a closure instead of
&Connection, enabling the same plugin code to work in local, client, and
server contexts (collect-to-Vec, collect-to-HashMap, or direct DB write)
- Client save now runs meta plugins locally during streaming (smart client
sets meta=false, server skips its own plugins)
- Add POST /api/item/{id}/update endpoint for re-running plugins on stored
content without downloading compressed data
- Add client update mode (--update with --meta-plugin flags)
- Extract shared utilities: stream_copy, print_serialized, build_path_table,
ensure_default_tag to reduce duplication across modes
- Add upsert_tag for idempotent tag addition (INSERT OR IGNORE)
- Add warn logging on save_meta lock failure in BaseMetaPlugin and MetaService
Replace 4 unsafe sites with safe wrappers:
- libc::pipe2 → nix::unistd::pipe2 (safe OwnedFd return)
- File::from_raw_fd → File::from(OwnedFd) (safe ownership transfer)
- unsafe impl Send for SendCookie → thread_local! lazy Cookie
(each thread gets its own independent Cookie, no Send needed)
- pre_exec + libc::fcntl → command-fds crate fd_mappings()
(handles CLOEXEC clearing safely, also fixes potential fd leak
on spawn failure via OwnedFd RAII)
Only libc::umask remains as a single unavoidable unsafe site
(no safe Rust wrapper exists for the umask syscall).
Also updates AGENTS.md to remove stale SendCookie exception.
Major overhaul of server architecture and security posture:
- Streaming: Unified all I/O through PIPESIZE (8192-byte) buffers.
POST bodies stream via MpscReader through the save pipeline. GET
content streams from disk via decompression to client. Removed
save_item_with_reader, get_item_content_info, ChannelReader.
413 responses keep partial items (nonfatal by design).
- Security: XSS protection in all HTML pages via html_escape crate.
Security headers middleware (nosniff, frame deny, referrer policy).
CORS tightened to explicit headers. Input validation for tags
(256 chars), metadata (128/4096), pagination (10k cap). Config
file reads use from_utf8_lossy. Generic error messages in HTML.
Diff endpoint has 10 MB per-item cap. max_body_size config option.
- Panics eliminated: Path unwraps → proper error propagation.
Mutex unwraps → map_err (registries) / expect with message (local).
- MCP removed: Deleted all MCP code, rmcp dependency, mcp feature.
- Docs: Updated README, DESIGN, AGENTS to reflect all changes.
Security:
- Use constant-time password comparison (subtle crate) to prevent timing attacks
- Replace permissive CORS with configurable origin-restricted CORS
- Add TLS warning when password auth is used without HTTPS
Bug fixes:
- Convert MetaPlugin panics to anyhow::Result (get_meta_plugin, outputs_mut, options_mut)
- Replace item.id.unwrap() with proper error handling across 15 call sites
- Fix panic on unknown column type in list mode
- Fix conflicting PIPESIZE constant (was 8192 vs 65536, now unified to 8192)
- Add 256MB filter chain buffer limit to prevent OOM
- Gracefully skip unregistered plugins instead of panicking
Dead code removal:
- Delete unused filter parser files (filter_parser.rs, filter.pest, parser/ module)
- ~260 lines of dead PEG parser code removed
Code consolidation:
- Add is_content_binary_from_metadata() helper (was duplicated in 4 places)
- Simplify save_item_raw() to delegate to save_item_raw_streaming() (~90 lines removed)
Incomplete features:
- Populate filter_plugins in status output from global registry
- Add FallbackMagicFileMetaPlugin (was referenced but never implemented)
- Document init_plugins() as intentional no-op
Infrastructure:
- Add Dockerfile (static musl binary on scratch, 4.8MB)
- Add .dockerignore
- Add cors_origin to ServerConfig and config.rs
