docs(bdd): scenarios for paste-a-URL + onboarding burst, mapped to tests

Adds paste_url.feature (valid/invalid/not-found/dedup, +@pending no-captions)
and an onboarding-burst scenario on connect; all non-pending scenarios mapped in
the coverage gate to their existing Go tests.

+## ADR-013 — Account deletion is Tapir-side only; the Dex identity is left intact
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-03). The "Tapir never holds write access to the shared identity
+provider" rationale is **partially superseded by ADR-017** (the invite flow now *creates* Dex
+Password CRs). The deletion-behaviour decision itself — delete Tapir-side state, leave the Dex
+identity intact — still stands; ADR-017 only changes the create side, not delete. See ADR-017
+for the now-asymmetric posture (Tapir can create Dex accounts but still does not delete them).
+
+**Context.** Stage 1 (ADR-012) added account deletion. A registered user is two things: a
+`users` row (plus all their data, cascade-linked) in Tapir's Postgres, and a subject identity
+in **Dex** (the homelab OIDC provider, shared across the estate — Tapir does not own it).
+"Delete my account" could mean (a) erase all Tapir-side data and secrets, or (b) that plus
+deprovision the Dex identity. The maintainer chose (a).
+
+**Decision.** Deleting a Tapir account removes **only Tapir-side state**:
+- The `users` row, cascading to all user-owned tables (`videos`, `transcripts`, `summaries`,
+  `sink_deliveries`, `video_connections`, and — via an **explicit delete**, because it has no
+  FK — `summary_actions`). The delete test asserts the cascade reaches every table and leaves
+  other users' rows untouched.
+- All of that user's secrets in the SecretStore (the per-user YouTube refresh-token refs).
+
+The **Dex identity is deliberately left intact.** Tapir does not deprovision, disable, or
+modify the shared Dex directory **on deletion**. (Note per ADR-017: Tapir *does* now create Dex
+Password CRs on invite — so the create and delete sides are deliberately asymmetric, and a
+deleted user's Dex Password CR persists. See ADR-017 consequences.)
+
+**Consequences.**
+- **Clean re-registration:** a deleted user who logs in again arrives as a Dex-authenticated
+  subject with no `users` row, so they hit the registration gate as a "new" user — no special
+  resurrection path needed. This is a feature of the choice, not an accident.
+- **Right-to-erasure is partial.** The user's *identity* still exists in Dex after deletion.
+  For Future B (trusted friends) this is acceptable: Dex is the maintainer's own directory and
+  the identity carries no Tapir content. **But if Tapir ever moves toward Future C (real
+  external/public users), this is a GDPR-shaped gap** — a true "delete my account" there must
+  also deprovision or anonymise the Dex identity, which is a new ADR and likely a Dex-admin
+  integration Tapir does not currently have. **ADR-017 widens this gap:** Tapir now *creates*
+  the Dex Password CR but does not delete it, so a deleted Tapir user leaves an orphaned Dex
+  local-password account. Tracked as a known gap in ADR-017.
+- **Blast radius:** ADR-013 originally claimed "Tapir never holds write access to the shared
+  identity provider." **ADR-017 changes this** — Tapir now holds scoped `create`+`get` on
+  `passwords.dex.coreos.com` in the `auth` namespace. The blast radius is no longer zero; it is
+  bounded by that RBAC. See ADR-017 for the security analysis.
+
+**Reversibility.** Adding Dex deprovisioning later is a superseding ADR; nothing about the
+current choice blocks it. Recorded now because "deletion is partial by design" is a deliberate
+semantic that future-Tapir (and any compliance review) must know was chosen, not overlooked.

+## ADR-014 — Timedtext 429 handling: per-host backoff + honest in-flight UX, before any Whisper reconsideration
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-03). **Partially implemented as of v0.6.0** — see the
+implementation note at the end; the shared per-egress-IP rate gate (decision item 2) may not be
+fully realised. Verify against `internal/runner` + the youtube adapter before treating as done.
+**ADR-018 (in-process scheduled discovery + auto-summarize) makes decision item 2 load-bearing
+and folds its confirm/finish into that build.**
+
+**Context.** ADR-010 acquires captions from the unauthenticated `timedtext` baseUrl. Live runs
+show that endpoint **rate-limits per source IP (HTTP 429) under volume** — many videos fetched
+in one pass from one egress IP. Stage 1 (ADR-012) made this sharper in two ways: multiple users
+now drive fetches from the *same cluster egress IP*, and the v0.4.0 "Summarize" button fires an
+**immediate, synchronous-feeling** fetch on click (HTMX polls `/v/{videoId}/status`), so a 429
+now surfaces as a *user-facing stall* rather than a background batch hiccup. A throttle
+(`TAPIR_FETCH_DELAY`) exists but is a fixed inter-fetch delay, not 429-aware, and does not
+coordinate across the concurrent click-path and the `tapir run` batch path.
+
+This ADR is **not** a decision to build Whisper. ADR-007/010 keep STT deferred *pending
+measurement of the sustainable caption rate* — and that rate cannot be measured while the
+client reacts badly to the 429s it already provokes. Fix the backoff and the UX first; the
+clean data then tells you whether Whisper is warranted.
+
+**Decision.**
+
+1. **429-aware backoff at the fetch layer.** On a 429 from the timedtext/InnerTube fetch,
+   respect `Retry-After` when present; otherwise exponential backoff with jitter. This replaces
+   reliance on a fixed `TAPIR_FETCH_DELAY` alone (which stays as a floor/politeness delay).
+2. **A single per-egress-IP rate gate** shared by *both* the `tapir run` batch path and the
+   web click path, so they cannot collectively exceed the sustainable rate. Concurrency into
+   the timedtext endpoint is serialised/limited at this gate regardless of how many users or
+   goroutines are upstream. (The 429 is per *IP*, not per user — so the gate is process-/
+   cluster-egress-wide, not per-`withUser`.)
+3. **Honest in-flight UX (the product-shaping part).** The status poll distinguishes states
+   the user can understand instead of a spinner that silently stalls:
+   - *summarizing* — actively processing (the existing tapir spinner).
+   - *queued / waiting for rate limit* — fetch deferred behind the rate gate; show a calm
+     "queued, this can take a few minutes when busy" state, not a stuck spinner.
+   - *no transcript* — terminal, per ADR-010's degrade-never-error (a 429 that exhausts retries
+     resolves to `SourceNone`, same as any unavailable caption — it must not present as a hard
+     error to the user).
+   The spinner promising imminence is the wrong signal under rate-limiting; the UX must be able
+   to say "waiting" truthfully.
+4. **Measurement before Whisper.** Only once (1)-(3) are in and a real sustainable
+   per-IP rate is observed do we revisit whether caption coverage is good enough or whether the
+   deferred Whisper fallback (ADR-007) is finally warranted. That reconsideration is a future
+   ADR, gated on this data.
+
+**Consequences.**
+- Caption fetching becomes well-behaved under multi-user load instead of self-inflicting 429s;
+  the endpoint is treated as the shared, rate-limited resource it is.
+- The click-path UX stays honest: "waiting" reads as waiting, failure degrades to "no
+  transcript", never a stuck spinner or error spew.
+- A future per-IP cooldown / second egress IP / proxy becomes an option the rate gate can sit
+  in front of without UX changes.
+- **Still no Whisper** — and now there's a clean path to the *data* that decides whether it's
+  ever needed (`docs/homelab-integration.md` and a future ADR own that measurement).
+
+**Open (tracked, not in this ADR's scope):** the actual sustainable rate number; whether a
+dedicated egress IP / outbound proxy is worth it; CronJob-driven `tapir run` interaction with
+the rate gate (the batch path moves into k3s per the deferred CronJob item).
+
+**Implementation note (2026-06-03, v0.6.0 — added during reconciliation).** A v0.6.0 release
+shipped 429 handling: `domain.SourceRateLimited` (429 no longer collapsed to `SourceNone`),
+youtube adapter maps 429 → `SourceRateLimited`, **migration 007 added `videos.transcript_status`
++ `videos.rate_limited_at`** (durable per-video retry state), `TAPIR_FETCH_BACKOFF` config,
+runner records rate-limited + skips within the backoff window, and a "⏳ Retrying later" badge.
+This realises decision items 1, 3, and 4 well. **Item 2 (a single shared per-egress-IP rate
+gate) appears to be realised as per-*video* backoff state, NOT a process-wide IP gate** —
+multiple videos can still each hit the endpoint and collectively trip the per-IP 429. Treat item
+2 as **not yet confirmed done**; verify in `internal/runner`/youtube adapter and, if absent, it
+remains open. (Resolved during reconciliation: the v0.6.0 report's reference to "migration 008
+videos.rate_limited_at" was a **mislabel** — both columns shipped in migration **007**, not a
+missing 008. No migration was lost; the sequence legitimately skips 008. `rate_limited_at`
+exists and the runner's column reads are sound.) **ADR-018 makes item 2 a hard requirement:
+in-process scheduled discovery + auto-summarize drives all users' fetches through one pod egress,
+so the process-wide gate is confirmed/built as part of that slice.**

+
+## ADR-015 — Per-user credentials: envelope-encrypted in PG18, not vault-stored
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-03)
+
+**Context.** The Stage-0/1 SecretStore (`internal/adapters/secrets/file.go`) holds per-user
+YouTube OAuth refresh tokens as a flat key-value JSON map on a PVC — explicitly a stand-in for
+"op/ESO later" (ADR-002, ADR-006). infra#86 proposed migrating it to an ESO-backed store. The
+decision spike (infra#88) found that framing subtly wrong: **ESO syncs vault→cluster at
+deploy/refresh time; it is not a runtime write API.** Per-user tokens are written *at runtime,
+per end-user* (every YouTube connect; on token rotation) — they are application state, not
+configuration. The homelab 1Password SA is also read-only, so a vault-write path would require
+a new write-capable SA, widening Tapir's blast radius to shared estate infra to store what is
+fundamentally Tapir's own row-data. Reading the actual SecretStore confirmed the shape: a
+3-method port (`Get`/`Put`/`Delete`) over opaque refs, written interactively per user.
+
+**Decision.** Per-user credentials are stored **envelope-encrypted in PG18**, not in the vault:
+
+1. Tokens are encrypted with a **single app-level envelope key** and stored as ciphertext in
+   PG18, under the Row-Level Security already enforced and tested (ADR-012). Reads/writes go
+   through the existing `withUser` RLS-scoped seam.
+2. The **envelope key** is the only secret in 1Password — fetched via the **existing read-only
+   SA** (confirmed working). No new write-capable SA; no per-user vault items.
+3. The `ports.SecretStore` port is unchanged (`Get`/`Put`/`Delete`). The implementation swaps
+   `FileStore` (PVC JSON) for a `PGStore` (encrypted rows). Every consumer — connect,
+   disconnect, delete-account — is untouched (the port abstraction holds, ADR-003 spirit).
+4. **Infra/operator credentials** (Dex client secret, MCP-auth tokens, service tokens) stay an
+   **ESO/1Password** concern. This ADR governs *per-user runtime* credentials only. The two
+   classes use two mechanisms deliberately — because they are two different things (runtime
+   app-state vs deploy-time config), not as a compromise. The "one mechanism" question
+   (maintainer's initial preference) was answered in #88 by correctly *classifying* the
+   secrets rather than unifying their storage.
+
+**Consequences.**
+- Runtime credential writes are normal RLS'd DB writes — no ESO sync latency, no indirection,
+  no write-SA blast radius. The interactive connect→store→use flow works without a vault
+  round-trip.
+- Keeps PG18 and keeps ADR-002 intact (Supabase was considered and rejected again in #88 —
+  adding a datastore to hold a few encrypted strings PG18 already holds).
+- Adds an encrypt/decrypt seam and an **envelope-key rotation** responsibility (re-encrypt the
+  per-user rows under a new key). infra#89 (build) must implement and test rotation, not assume
+  it — this is the real engineering cost of the choice.
+- The vault's involvement shrinks to one static key via the SA already trusted for reads.
+- **Supersedes** the "PVC stand-in for op/ESO" intent recorded in `secrets/file.go` and
+  `docs/homelab-integration.md` for the *per-user* secret path (the ESO/1Password reference in
+  ADR-006 stands for the *infra-cred* path).
+
+**Reversibility / falsification (from infra#88).** Revisit if: per-user tokens need
+high-frequency rotation writes (weak — PG18 handles it); an estate compliance policy requires
+all credentials in 1P for a single audit surface (maintainer-knowable, not currently believed
+to hold — would favour the vault-write path on policy grounds); or envelope-key rotation proves
+operationally worse than per-secret vault rotation (the real cost #89 must prove). If none hold,
+this stands. Full reasoning + rejected candidates (write-capable SA; Supabase): the infra#88
+decision doc (`infra/docs/superpowers/handoffs/`). Build + reboot-validation: infra#89.

+## ADR-016 — Stage 0 gate revised: "useful to me OR a friend", behavioural not feedback
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-03). Revises the Stage 0 definition in VISION.md (supersedes the
+original "useful to me, specifically" gate and folds in the old Stage 1 "a trusted user returns"
+test). **The clock-start is further revised by ADR-018** (starts when scheduled discovery ships,
+since unprompted use was not possible before then).
+
+**Context.** The original Stage 0 gate was "the maintainer reads summaries weekly for four weeks
+and acts on one." The maintainer chose to change it to include friendly users, reasoning that
+early signal from friendly users is valuable. Two sub-decisions shaped the final form:
+- *Me OR a friend* (not AND): either the maintainer or an onboarded friend showing use clears it.
+- *Behavioural, not feedback*: the test is **return usage**, not stated approval.
+
+**Decision.** Stage 0 passes when, over a 3–4 week window, **either the maintainer or at least
+one onboarded friend returns to Tapir unprompted and reads/acts on summaries in ≥2 separate
+weeks.** Friend feedback is gathered and valued but is **not** the gate.
+
+**Why behavioural, not feedback (the load-bearing part).** Asked-for feedback from friendly
+users is the least reliable signal in product development — politeness bias means a friend you
+onboarded will tend to say encouraging things regardless of real value. The thing actually worth
+knowing is whether they *come back on their own*. So the gate measures returns, not nice words.
+This deliberately resists the most common way a principled gate dies: being declared "passed" on
+the strength of a polite reaction.
+
+**Honest note on what this change does.** This is a *guardrail edit made while the original gate
+was unmet* (Stage 0 had barely started; build had run well ahead of use-evidence). That is
+precisely the pattern that warrants scrutiny — redrawing a gate around work already done. It was
+examined on that basis and proceeds because: (a) the new gate is **not softer in kind** — it
+stays behavioural and sustained, merely broadening *who* can supply the signal; (b) friendly-user
+signal is genuinely valuable; (c) the politeness-bias guard keeps it from collapsing into
+"someone said it's nice." It is *not* a licence to treat the already-shipped Stage-1 machinery as
+evidence the gate passed — use-evidence remains open.
+
+**Consequences.**
+- VISION.md Stage 0 rewritten; old Stage 1 ("a trusted user returns") folded in (it was
+  near-identical to the new test); hardening renumbered to Stage 1.
+- New drift signal added: declaring the gate passed on polite feedback rather than return-usage.
+- The 2026-07-01 check-in now asks "is anyone (me or a friend) coming back unprompted?", not
+  "am I using it weekly?". (Check-in date itself revised by ADR-018.)
+
+**Reversibility.** A superseding ADR could tighten it back to maintainer-only or raise it to
+require multiple returning users. Recorded with the full rationale (including the self-scrutiny

+## ADR-017 — Invite flow: Tapir creates Dex local-password accounts (write access to the shared identity provider)
+
+**Status:** ~~Accepted~~ **SUPERSEDED by [ADR-019](#adr-019--authentik-owns-invites-tapir-stops-provisioning-accounts) (2026-06-07).** The Dex local-password
+invite provisioning was removed when the homelab IdP migrated Dex→Authentik
+(infra ADR-0001); Authentik now owns invites. Original record below.
+
+Accepted (2026-06-03), **recorded retroactively during reconciliation, then
+deliberately ratified KEEP (2026-06-03).** This capability **shipped in v0.7.0 without an ADR** —
+code, RBAC, and a deployed ServiceAccount landed before any decision record existed. This ADR
+documents what shipped and honestly records that the decision-before-code discipline was not
+followed here (see "Process note"). **Partially supersedes ADR-002 and ADR-013** (the "Tapir
+holds no write access to the shared identity provider" posture).
+
+**Keep-or-reverse, decided (2026-06-03).** After the retroactive recording, the maintainer
+weighed keep vs. reverse (drop the RBAC + invite flow, rely on Google OIDC only). **Decision:
+KEEP.** Deciding fact: not all intended Future-B users have / will use Google accounts, so Google
+OIDC alone *cannot* onboard them — the invite flow is therefore **load-bearing, not a redundant
+convenience**, and reversing it would leave some intended users with no onboarding path. The
+trust-surface cost (scoped `create` on `passwords` in `auth`) is accepted deliberately in
+exchange. The opposing argument (this contradicts ADR-015's "no write credential to shared infra"
+logic, applied there to secrets) was considered and outweighed *only* because the capability is
+genuinely necessary for real users here — it is **not** a precedent for widening the surface
+further. **Explicitly NOT chosen:** adding `delete` to the RBAC to close the orphan gap (that
+widens the surface in the wrong direction; accept the orphan at Future B instead — see open
+items).
+
+**Context.** Stage 1 onboarding needs a way for a friend to get a login. Two paths shipped:
+Google OIDC via Dex (no Tapir code — Dex handles it), and an **invite flow** where Tapir itself
+provisions a Dex **local-password** account. The invite flow is what this ADR is about.
+
+**What shipped (reconstructed from `internal/adapters/dex/dex.go`, `internal/web/invite.go`,
+migration `009_invitations`).**
+1. `tapir invite <email>` (host CLI) writes an `invitations` row: a 32-byte crypto-random,
+   single-use, 7-day-expiry `token` (the token is the capability), `email`, `used_at`.
+   The `invitations` table is deliberately **not** RLS/`user_id`-scoped — the invitee has no
+   user yet and the token itself is the secret. (Sound; documented in the migration.)
+2. Recipient visits `/invite/{token}` (public, no session), sets a password (validated *before*
+   the token is consumed, so a typo doesn't burn it), the token is claimed exactly once.
+3. Tapir bcrypt-hashes (cost 12) and **POSTs a `passwords.dex.coreos.com` Custom Resource into
+   the `auth` namespace** via the in-cluster Kubernetes API, authenticating as the `tapir`
+   ServiceAccount. TLS validated against the mounted cluster CA. Off-cluster (dev) it returns
+   `ErrNotInCluster` and degrades without consuming the invite.
+4. RBAC applied this deploy: the `tapir` ServiceAccount has **`create`+`get` on
+   `passwords.dex.coreos.com` in the `auth` namespace** (and only that).
+5. Dex (kubernetes storage) then serves local-password login for that email; Tapir's
+   registration gate creates the profile on first login.
+
+**Decision (as ratified now).** Accept the invite flow as built: Tapir *may* hold scoped write
+access to Dex's `passwords` resource in the `auth` namespace, for the purpose of invite-based
+local-account creation. This is a deliberate, bounded reversal of the prior "no write access to
+the shared identity provider" posture (ADR-002/013).
+
+**Why this is acceptable (the case for keeping it).**
+- The RBAC is **minimally scoped**: `create`+`get` on one resource type in one namespace, not
+  broad Dex/cluster write. Blast radius is bounded and inspectable.
+- It enables friend onboarding **without Google OAuth app verification** (ADR-008 deferred that),
+  which is genuinely useful for Future B — and necessary for users who won't use Google (the
+  deciding fact in the keep decision above).
+- The code is careful: validate-before-consume, single-use tokens, graceful off-cluster degrade,
+  sentinel errors mapped to clear messages, the base64-bcrypt storage gotcha handled.
+
+**Consequences / known gaps (the case to watch).**
+- **Reverses a load-bearing principle.** ADR-002 and ADR-013 leaned on "Tapir never writes to the
+  shared identity provider" for blast-radius minimisation. That is no longer true. Anyone reading
+  those ADRs without this one would be misled — hence the cross-references added to both.
+- **Create/delete asymmetry → orphaned Dex accounts.** Tapir now *creates* Dex Password CRs but
+  (per ADR-013) does not *delete* them on account deletion. A deleted Tapir user leaves an
+  orphaned Dex local-password account that can still authenticate (though it would hit the
+  registration gate with no profile). This widens the ADR-013 right-to-erasure gap. **Open —
+  accepted for Future B, revisit before Future C (do NOT add `delete` RBAC just to fix this).**
+- **`create` on a shared-namespace identity resource** is a meaningfully larger trust surface than
+  the rest of Tapir. If the `tapir` pod is compromised, the attacker can mint Dex local accounts.
+  Bounded by the namespace/resource scope, but real — worth a deliberate look before Future C.
+- Token custody for invites is in PG (`invitations.token`) in plaintext; single-use + 7-day TTL
+  bound the exposure, but a DB read yields live invite tokens until claimed/expired.
+
+**Process note (why this ADR is retroactive).** This capability was built and deployed by
+parallel agent sessions while the main planning thread was elsewhere, and shipped with no ADR —
+the first time in this project a guardrail-reversing change skipped the decision-before-code
+discipline. Recorded here not to rubber-stamp it but to restore the audit trail: the decision is
+now visible, its principle-reversal is named, and its open gaps (orphaned accounts, the larger
+trust surface) are tracked rather than buried in a release note. The maintainer ratified KEEP
+after the fact (see status block) on the deciding fact that some intended users cannot use Google
+OIDC.
+
+**Open items this ADR creates (tracked in infra):**
+- Confirm the RBAC really is `create`+`get` only (not broader) against the deployed manifest in
+  `infra` — a security claim currently resting on a sibling report, not a verified manifest read.
+- Accept the orphaned-Dex-account gap for Future B; revisit (orphan cleanup + the whole Dex-write
+  surface) before any Future C move. Do **not** add `delete` RBAC solely to fix the orphan.
+- Review the larger trust surface before any Future C move.

+
+## ADR-018 — Make Tapir usable unprompted: in-process scheduled discovery, auto-summarize default, gate-clock reset
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-03)
+
+**Context.** The Stage-0 gate (ADR-016) measures whether the maintainer or a friend *returns and
+reads/acts* over weeks. But the system could not actually be used that way: discovery (`tapir
+run`) was **host-side manual**, so a newly onboarded user saw an empty list and had no reason to
+return. The gate was structurally unmeetable — not because the product failed, but because the
+*workflow* depended on the maintainer SSHing in to trigger each pass. The runner already has a
+`Loop(ctx, interval)` (run-on-start, then every tick) and per-user mode/dedup/backoff; what was
+missing was *invocation* — nothing called it for the deployed users on a schedule.
+
+**Decision.**
+1. **In-process scheduled discovery.** `tapir serve` launches a background goroutine that runs
+   discovery for **all users** on an interval (`TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL`; unset/0 = off). It
+   enumerates users (un-RLS'd `user_identities`) and runs each user's pass inside `withUser`,
+   reusing the existing `runner` — not a new scheduler. Stateless timing; ctx-cancellable;
+   per-user failures isolated.
+2. **Auto-summarize default ON** for Future-B users (new registrations default `true`; existing
+   rows updated), so discovery both populates *and* summarizes — the list fills itself. The
+   per-user manual toggle remains.
+3. **Gate-clock reset.** The Stage-0 3–4 week window (ADR-016) **starts when this ships**, because
+   unprompted use was impossible before it. This is starting the clock when the experiment can
+   actually run, **not** a reset to dodge a failing gate (the prior window measured nothing —
+   there was no way to use the system unprompted). The 2026-07-01 check-in moves accordingly to
+   ~3–4 weeks after this deploys.
+
+**Why in-process and not a k8s CronJob.** Maintainer's call: simpler deploy (no second deployable),
+acceptable at Future-B scale (1–3 users). The CronJob's advantage — failure isolation between
+discovery and the web/read path — was weighed and traded away knowingly.
+
+**Consequences / constraints.**
+- **Discovery shares the web process's lifetime and egress.** A wedged discovery pass can degrade
+  the reading UI (the coupling a CronJob would have avoided). Accepted at this scale.
+- **SINGLE-REPLICA ASSUMPTION (load-bearing).** If `tapir serve` ever runs >1 replica, *every*
+  replica runs the discovery loop → every user fetched in parallel (429s + duplicate work). Tapir
+  must stay single-replica while in-process scheduling is enabled, or this is revisited (move to
+  CronJob, or add leader-election). Recorded so a future scale-up doesn't silently double-run.
+- **Makes ADR-014 item 2 (shared per-egress-IP rate gate) load-bearing.** In-process + auto +
+  multi-user drives all caption fetches through one pod egress, concurrent with click-path
+  Summarize. The build confirms/finishes the process-wide rate gate in the same slice; without it
+  the system self-inflicts 429s every cycle. **Auto-summarize ON is gated on the rate gate
+  existing** (fallback: ship discovery with auto OFF until it does).
+
+**Reversibility.** Disable via `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL=0` (reverts to manual `tapir run`).
+Moving to a CronJob later is a superseding ADR; the per-user `runner` is unchanged either way.
+Spec: `docs/specs/scheduled-discovery.md`.

+
+## ADR-019 — Authentik owns invites; Tapir stops provisioning accounts
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-07). **Supersedes ADR-017** (Dex local-password invite
+provisioning).
+
+**Context:** infra ADR-0001 migrated the homelab IdP Dex→Authentik. Authentik provides
+first-class invite flows; the Dex local-password connector never consulted the Password
+CRs Tapir wrote (the defect that triggered the migration). Tapir-web's OIDC issuer now
+points at Authentik (infra ADR-0001 step 3).
+
+**Decision:** Tapir no longer provisions accounts. The Dex-password invite path is removed:
+`internal/adapters/dex`, the public `/invite/{token}` set-password UI (`internal/web/invite.go`),
+the `tapir invite` CLI (`cmd/tapir/invite.go`), the `InvitationStore`/`DexPasswordCreator`
+ports + `App.Invitations`/`App.Dex` wiring, the invite Templ pages, and the
+`tapir invite` Taskfile target. New users are invited via Authentik's flow, log into Tapir
+via OIDC, and are captured by Tapir's existing provider-agnostic `/register` (display name).
+Login + Google moved by config only (Authentik per-app issuer); the OIDC adapter is unchanged.
+
+**Consequences:** smaller Tapir blast surface — no writes to the shared identity provider, no
+configmap/CR access, the dedicated `passwords.dex.coreos.com` RBAC + ServiceAccount are
+removed (infra side, coupled change). The `invitations` table (migration 009) is left in
+place — migrations are append-only and the unused table is harmless; a future migration may
+drop it. The `*_DEX_*` config/identity names (`TAPIR_DEX_CLIENT_*`, `dex_subject`, the
+`DexAuth`/`oidc` package) are now misnomers; renaming is deferred (cosmetic, not behavioural).
+
+**Rejected:** keeping Tapir's `/invite` UI but calling Authentik's API on claim — couples
+Tapir to Authentik's admin API + a token for no real gain; Authentik's own invite flow is
+the supported path.
+

+
+## ADR-020 — Recency-bounded auto-summarize + honest sparse-state surface
+
+**Status:** Accepted (2026-06-08). **Refines ADR-018** (auto-summarize) and **ADR-014**
+(per-IP caption rate gate).
+
+**Context.** Tapir is operational but sparse: at real subscription volume the maintainer's
+account holds ~283 discovered videos, ~15 summarized, ~256 behind the respected per-IP caption
+rate gate, ~12 no-captions. Two problems follow. (1) **Load:** ADR-018 auto-summarizes *every*
+unseen video, so a large back-catalogue re-drives the whole queue through the gate every cycle —
+self-inflicted 429s with no user value (nobody is waiting on a 6-month-old video). (2) **First
+contact:** a new user sees a mostly-empty feed with no moving parts and a UI that implied
+abundance/imminence ("fetching soon" ×256, "Run `tapir run`", "Summarize now"); the Stage-0 gate
+is *return usage*, and the experience died at the first visit. Source: a UX heuristic review
+(`docs/ux-review/UX-REVIEW-stage0-recency.md`).
+
+**Decision.**
+1. **Recency bound on auto-summarize.** In automatic mode the scheduler only summarizes videos
+   published within `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW` (default ~7d). Older videos are still discovered
+   and listed but not auto-processed — they keep the manual "Summarize" affordance. An explicit
+   manual request bypasses the bound. `0` disables it (pre-recency behaviour). This bounds auto
+   *load*; it does not fetch harder — the gate (ADR-014) is untouched and the manual path still
+   serialises through it.
+2. **Honest sparse-state surface.** Copy is reframed to surface scarcity truthfully, never to
+   look fuller: "N ready · M in queue · K no captions" (not "fetching soon"); a one-line "captions
+   are fetched slowly on purpose" note; "Summarize" (not "Summarize now"); the empty-connected
+   state stops printing an impossible CLI command.
+3. **Feed IA = one list, noise-collapsed.** Summarized + recent un-summarized cards lead inline;
+   the older un-summarized back-catalogue collapses behind a single "Show N older videos"
+   disclosure; caption-less videos collapse to a one-line count instead of N dead cards. List is
+   ordered summarized-first, then `published_at DESC NULLS LAST`.
+
+**Consequences.** The auto path's per-cycle fetch volume is bounded by recent uploads, not the
+whole back-catalogue, so steady-state 429 pressure drops sharply. Older videos become explicitly
+on-demand — a deliberate honesty trade (the user chooses to spend a scarce fetch on old content).
+The single-replica assumption (ADR-018) is unchanged.
+
+**Deliberately NOT done (premature until the Stage-0 loop is validated).** Return-nudges
+(digest email / push) — a nudge contaminates the *unprompted*-return signal the gate measures
+(ADR-016); building it now poisons the experiment. Also deferred: full-text search, channel
+facets, read/unread, saved views — all need summary abundance to matter.
+
+**Reversibility.** `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW=0` restores summarize-every-unseen; the feed
+collapse keys off the same window (`App.RecencyWindow=0` → everything inline).

+  but it is **not** the gate. Asked-for feedback from friendly users is the least reliable
+  signal in product development (politeness bias); whether they *come back* is the thing we
+  actually care about. So the gate measures returns, not nice words.
+- **Measurement note — "unprompted" is an ideal we can't yet measure.** Whether a return was
+  organic or prompted by a nudge is not captured by any data Tapir holds (it's context only
+  the maintainer has). Rather than waive the standard, we name the gap: *unprompted* return
+  is the signal we genuinely want; *returns* (prompted or not) is what the data can show. A
+  return that needed a nudge is a weaker signal than one that didn't, and the result is read

+- **Why "me OR a friend".** This replaces the original "useful to *me*, specifically" gate

+  by a polite reaction. (Ties to the 2026-07-01 check-in.)
+- **How it's measured.** Return usage is read from two sources: `summary_actions` (timestamped
+  watch/skip/save per user) answers "acted in ≥2 distinct weeks"; an append-only login-events
+  table (see infra/Tapir build) answers "returned/read in ≥2 distinct weeks" even without an
+  action click — the honest signal for a *reading* product. Login events accrue only from their

+- **Gate-clock reset (ADR-018).** The 3–4 week window starts when in-process scheduled discovery

+- **Dex OIDC session layer** (`internal/web/oidc`) — **authenticate-only** (ADR-012). It proves
+  *who*; authorization/isolation is the DB's job (RLS), not the session's.
+- **Registration gate** — a Dex subject with no `users` row is routed to `/register`, which
+  creates the `users` row + the `user_identities` mapping (migration 004). Returning subjects
+  pass straight through.
+- **Web-initiated YouTube connect** — `/oauth/youtube/connect` → `/oauth/youtube/callback`
+  persists a **per-user** refresh-token ref (`youtube/<userID>/refresh_token`) via `SecretStore`
+  and a `video_connections` row (ADR-006, migration 005). Distinct from the CLI `tapir auth`.
+- **Account management** — `/account` offers disconnect and **delete account**. Delete removes
+  only Tapir-side state (cascade across the user's tables + secret refs); the shared Dex identity
+  is left intact (ADR-013).
+- **Immediate summarization** — the web "Summarize" button (`POST /v/{id}/summarize`) fires the
+  engine in a **background goroutine** inside `serve`; the page HTMX-polls `/v/{id}/status`,
+  showing a Charmbracelet spinner while in-flight (and an honest "queued/waiting" state under
+  rate-limiting — ADR-014).
+- **Summarization mode** — `users.auto_summarize` (migration 006). Default is **true** for new
+  users (migration 011, ADR-018); all existing rows were back-filled via migration 012. Auto:
+  new videos **published within the recency window** (`TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW`, default ~7d,
+  ADR-020) are summarized automatically; older videos are discovered and listed but wait for an
+  explicit "Summarize". Manual: new videos appear unsummarized; the button sets
+  `videos.summarize_requested`, which the next `tapir run` processes and clears. A manual request
+  bypasses the recency bound. Both the click path and the batch `tapir run` drive the same
+  unchanged engine.
+- **List surface (ADR-020)** — the list reads `ListVideos` ordered summarized-first, then
+  `published_at DESC NULLS LAST`. The web layer collapses the noise so summaries are not buried:
+  un-summarized videos older than the recency window fold into one "Show N older videos"
+  disclosure, and caption-less videos collapse to a single count line. Copy surfaces scarcity
+  honestly (queue counts, gradual-fill note) — it never implies the feed is fuller than it is.
+
+The engine, ports, and sink adapters are **untouched** by all of the above — the web surface only
+reads the store and triggers the existing engine. Adding it changed wiring, not the core (ADR-003).
+
+---
+
+## In-process scheduler (ADR-018)
+
+`cmdServe` launches a background goroutine when `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL > 0`. On each tick
+it calls `store.ListAllUsers` (un-RLS'd admin query), builds a per-user `runner.Runner`, and
+calls `RunOnce` for each registered user in sequence.

+
+**Single-replica constraint (load-bearing).** The scheduler lives in the web process;
+`replicas: 1` in the k3s deployment manifest is not cosmetic — running `tapir serve` at
+>1 replica makes every replica run the full discovery loop, causing every registered user
+to be fetched in parallel from the same egress IP (429s + duplicate work). Do not scale
+`serve` past 1 replica without first moving discovery to a k8s CronJob or adding leader
+election. The process logs a `Warn` at startup when scheduled discovery is enabled as a
+reminder.
+
+---
+
+## Process-wide timedtext rate gate
+
+**`internal/adapters/youtube/gate.go`** (ADR-014 item 2): a single `rate.Limiter`
+(`golang.org/x/time/rate`) shared across **all** Adapter instances. Every `httpDo` call for
+a caption fetch passes through `WaitFetchGate(ctx)` before hitting YouTube. This serialises
+the scheduler loop AND the web click-path through the same per-egress-IP budget. Configured
+via `TAPIR_FETCH_RATE` (Go duration, default `2s`). Setting it to `0` disables the gate
+(dev/tests only).
+
+This is the precondition that makes scheduled auto-summarize safe: without the gate, a
+multi-user scheduler pass could fire many concurrent timedtext requests from the same IP
+within seconds, triggering 429s for all users.
+
+### Two-path summarisation model
+
+Both paths share `globalFetchGate` — rate limiting is **respected in both**, not routed around.
+
+| Path | Trigger | Order | Rationale |
+|------|---------|-------|-----------|
+| **Foreground** | User clicks "Summarize" on any non-summarized card (`POST /v/{id}/retry-now` for rate-limited; `POST /v/{id}/summarize` for pending) | Single chosen video | On-demand value: user picks a specific video to read now — bypasses the recency bound |
+| **Background batch** | Scheduled discovery pass every `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL` | **Newest-first across all channels** (see below), **bounded to the recency window** (ADR-020) | Onboarding prioritisation within bounded load: recent videos auto-fill; the older back-catalogue stays on-demand |
+
+The rationale for both paths is **onboarding prioritisation under an honest, bounded load** — a
+new user gets summaries of their most recent videos automatically, while the older back-catalogue
+is listed but summarised only on demand, so it never re-drives the shared rate gate every cycle.
+
+### Newest-first batch ordering (ADR-018)
+
+Within each scheduled pass, `RunOnce` uses a three-phase structure:
+
+1. **Discover + persist**: walk all channels, `UpsertVideo` every candidate (so it appears in
+   the list), apply pre-filters (seen/manual/backoff/**recency**), collect surviving candidates.
+   The recency pre-filter (ADR-020) drops auto-mode videos published before
+   `now - TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW` unless they are explicitly requested; an undated video is
+   never aged out. They remain persisted/listed — only auto-summarisation is skipped.
+2. **Sort**: order candidates `published_at DESC, NULLS LAST, discovery_pos ASC`. Videos with
+   no publish date (schema 001: nullable) sort after all dated content. The sort is in-memory
+   (`slices.SortStableFunc`) — at current scale this is fine.
+3. **Process**: feed candidates to the engine in sorted order through `globalFetchGate`.
+
+Before (per-channel inline): `[chanA-old, chanA-mid, chanB-new, chanB-null]`
+After  (newest-first):       `[chanB-new, chanA-mid, chanA-old, chanB-null]`
+
+The set of *processed* videos now also excludes auto-mode back-catalogue beyond the recency
+window (those stay listed, summarised on demand); within the processed set, only order changes.

 ## Notes per entity
 
-- **USER** — at Stage 0 there is exactly one row. At Stage 1, identity comes via Dex; this
-  table holds the Tapir-side profile keyed to the Dex subject.
-- **VIDEO_CONNECTION** — a connected YouTube/Vimeo account. `token_secret_ref` resolves to
-  the OAuth refresh token via `SecretStore`. Revocation flips `status`, doesn't delete history.
-- **AI_CREDENTIAL** — optional, per provider, per user (ADR-004's Fallback). Absent for users
-  who only use the local stack. One row per provider max.
-- **SUBSCRIPTION** — a watched channel. `websub_expires` tracks the YouTube push lease so the
-  watcher knows when to re-subscribe; null for poll-based (Vimeo).
+- **USER** — one row per registered user (Stage 1, ADR-012; no longer single-row). The Tapir-side
+  profile; the Dex identity is held separately in `USER_IDENTITY`, not on this row. `auto_summarize`
+  (migration 006) is the per-user mode flag: `TRUE` = auto-summarize new videos **published within
+  the recency window** (`TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW`, default ~7d, ADR-020); older videos are
+  listed but summarised on demand. Default is **true** for new users (migration 011, ADR-018);
+  existing rows were back-filled via migration 012 with RLS bypass.
+- **USER_IDENTITY** (migration 004) — the `dex_subject → user_id` map. `dex_subject` is the PK,
+  `user_id` a `UNIQUE` FK to `users` with `ON DELETE CASCADE`. This is the bridge resolved at login
+  *before* a `user_id` is known, so it is **deliberately not RLS-enabled** (it holds no user data;
+  RLS here would deadlock the lookup that yields the id used for scoping). Account deletion cascades
+  the mapping away (ADR-013).
+- **VIDEO_CONNECTION** (migration 005) — a connected YouTube/Vimeo account. `token_ref` resolves to
+  the OAuth refresh token via `SecretStore` (per-user scheme `youtube/<userID>/refresh_token`).
+  `UNIQUE (user_id, provider)`: one connection per provider, reconnect upserts. Revocation/disconnect
+  flips `status`, doesn't delete history. FORCE RLS'd.
+- **AI_CREDENTIAL** — *planned, no table yet.* Optional, per provider, per user (ADR-004's Fallback).
+  BYO keys are currently resolved via `SecretStore` refs without a dedicated table; this entity is
+  modelled for when per-credential metadata is needed.
+- **SUBSCRIPTION** — *planned, no table yet.* A watched channel; `websub_expires` would track the
+  YouTube push lease. At Stage 0/1 `videos.subscription_id` is a nullable column with **no FK** (the
+  subscriptions table is not part of the shipped store-sink slice — migration 001).
 - **VIDEO** — one row per (user, video) — note `user_id`, reflecting the per-user-isolation
   decision. The same video seen by two users is two rows. `seen_at` is when Tapir detected it.
+  `summarize_requested` (migration 006) is the manual-mode queue flag: the web "Summarize" button
+  sets it `TRUE`; the next `tapir run` picks it up, summarizes, and clears it back to `FALSE`.
+  `transcript_status` and `rate_limited_at` (migration 007) track caption-fetch outcomes for
+  rate-limit backoff: `NULL` = not attempted; `rate_limited` = 429 seen, skip until
+  `NOW() - rate_limited_at > TAPIR_FETCH_BACKOFF`; `fetched` = resolved; `none` = no transcript.
 - **TRANSCRIPT** — at most one per video. `source = none` records "checked, no usable
   transcript" so the watcher doesn't reprocess (ADR-007). `content` null in that case.
 - **SUMMARY** — at most one per video. `fallback_used` + `ai_provider`/`ai_model` make the

   `takeaways` as jsonb to stay schema-flexible while the output format settles.
 - **SINK_DELIVERY** — one row per (summary, sink) attempt. This is where "also sent to brain"
   lives — no brain tables, just a delivery row with `sink = brain`. Sinks fail independently;
-  a failed brain delivery doesn't fail the store delivery.
+  a failed brain delivery doesn't fail the store delivery. No own `user_id`; RLS ownership is
+  derived from the parent summary via `EXISTS` (migration 003).
+- **SUMMARY_ACTION** (migration 002) — records the maintainer's act on a summary (watch / skip /
+  save) — the column that makes the Stage-0 headline metric ("acts on ≥1 summary") queryable
+  (ui-spec.md §5, ADR-011). `video_id` is `TEXT` and **not** FK-constrained, mirroring summaries'
+  standalone `(user_id, video_id)` key. `UNIQUE (user_id, video_id, action)`. FORCE RLS'd.
+- **CHANNEL_ERRORS** (migration 013) — channels that returned HTTP 404 (deleted or private) on
+  the most recent discovery pass. Upserted per scheduler pass (`last_seen` refreshed each run);
+  surfaced on the account page as a warning. Cascades on user deletion. Primary key is
+  `(user_id, channel_id)`. FORCE RLS'd.
+- **LOGIN_EVENTS** (migration 010) — throttled one-row-per-(user, date) login stamp. Used by the
+  Stage-0 gate query (VISION §Stage 0: "returned and used in ≥2 distinct weeks").

+Every user-owned table carries `user_id`, and isolation is **enforced at the DB layer**, not
+only in application code. ADR-011 shipped this surface single-user (one allowlisted subject,
+enforcement dormant); **ADR-012 opened Stage 1 and turned enforcement on in the same slice.**
+
+Enforcement is **Postgres Row-Level Security** (migration `003_rls.up.sql`):
+
+- RLS is `ENABLE`d **and** `FORCE`d on every user-owned table — `users`, `videos`,
+  `transcripts`, `summaries`, `summary_actions`, `video_connections`, `channel_errors`.
+  `FORCE` is load-bearing: the app connects as the table **owner** (`tapir` role), and owners
+  bypass RLS unless forced.
+- Each policy keys off the per-request GUC `tapir.current_user_id`, set transaction-locally by
+  the store's `withUser` helper via `set_config('tapir.current_user_id', $1, true)` — it
+  auto-resets on commit/rollback, so it never leaks across a pooled connection.
+- `current_setting('tapir.current_user_id', true)` uses `missing_ok = true`: an **unset** GUC
+  yields `NULL`, the predicate matches no rows, and access **denies by default**.
+- `sink_deliveries` has no `user_id`; its policy derives ownership from the parent summary via
+  `EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM summaries …)`.
+- `user_identities` (the Dex-subject → user_id map) is **deliberately not RLS-enabled** — it is
+  auth plumbing read *before* a user_id is known; putting RLS there would deadlock. It holds no
+  user data.
+
+The Stage-2 isolation bar is **pulled forward, not deferred**: `internal/adapters/store/rls_test.go`
+runs two users against a non-superuser, non-`BYPASSRLS` role and asserts user A reads/writes zero
+of user B's rows across every table. It ships green with the multi-user features (ADR-012); no
+multi-user feature merges ahead of it passing.

+
+## Stage 1 — multi-user facts (verified 2026-06-03)
+
+### Postgres RLS (ADR-012)
+- **The deployed DSN MUST connect as a non-superuser, non-BYPASSRLS role.** The
+  app uses the `tapir` role (table owner, non-superuser). `FORCE ROW LEVEL
+  SECURITY` is applied on all user-owned tables; a superuser DSN silently bypasses
+  FORCE and isolation is dead in prod. Verify: `SELECT rolsuper FROM pg_roles
+  WHERE rolname = 'tapir'` must return `f`.
+- Scoping is via `set_config('tapir.current_user_id', $userID, true)` (transaction-
+  local, auto-resets on commit — never leaks across a pooled connection).
+
+### Per-user YouTube token persistence
+- Stage-1 uses the **file-backed SecretStore** at `TAPIR_SECRETS_FILE=/data/secrets.json`
+  mounted from a **PVC** (`tapir-secrets`, 64Mi, RWO). Tokens survive pod restarts.
+  Upgrading to an ESO-backed per-user SecretStore is backlog (infra#86).
+- Per-user token ref scheme: `youtube/<userID>/refresh_token` (Worker C, ADR-006).
+  The Stage-0 single ref `youtube/refresh_token` is no longer used by `serve`; it
+  remains valid for the CLI `tapir run` (single-user, host-side).
+
+### Web YouTube connect
+- Redirect URI (registered in Google OAuth client, type Web): `https://tapir.d-ma.be/oauth/youtube/callback`.
+- Config env: `TAPIR_YT_CONNECT_REDIRECT_URL=https://tapir.d-ma.be/oauth/youtube/callback`.
+  `TAPIR_YT_CLIENT_ID` / `TAPIR_YT_CLIENT_SECRET` from the Web client (not the Desktop client used for the CLI).
+
+### Identity resolution
+- `user_identities(dex_subject → user_id)` table is **intentionally NOT RLS-enabled**
+  (it's auth plumbing, holds no user data; data isolation is on the user-owned tables).
+  All data access after subject resolution goes through `withUser`.
+
+## Scheduled discovery (ADR-018, verified 2026-06-05)
+
+`tapir serve` runs discovery for **all users** in-process on a timer (no CronJob). Three env
+knobs plus one load-bearing deployment constraint:
+
+- `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL` — Go duration, e.g. `2h`. The cadence the serve process runs a
+  discovery pass for every registered user (run-once-on-startup, then every interval).
+  **Unset or `0` = disabled** (dev/tests never auto-fetch).
+- `TAPIR_FETCH_RATE` — Go duration, default `2s`. The **process-wide per-egress-IP caption-fetch
+  rate gate** (ADR-014 item 2). Every caption fetch — scheduler runners *and* the web "Summarize"
+  click-path — serialises through this one limiter so the pod cannot collectively trip 429s. `0`
+  = unlimited (dev/tests). This is the precondition that makes auto-summarize-on-a-schedule safe;
+  do not raise it aggressively without watching for 429s.
+- `TAPIR_FETCH_BACKOFF=4h` — per-video rate-limit retry window; default `1h`. A video that
+  returns HTTP 429 on a caption fetch is skipped for this duration before being retried. The
+  scheduler checks `NOW() - rate_limited_at > TAPIR_FETCH_BACKOFF` before attempting to fetch
+  a video marked `transcript_status = rate_limited`. Longer values reduce 429 pressure at the
+  cost of slower recovery after a throttling episode.
+- **SINGLE-REPLICA WARNING (load-bearing).** The scheduler lives in the web process, so
+  `replicas: 1` in the deployment manifest is load-bearing: running `tapir serve` at >1 replica
+  makes **every** replica run the discovery loop → every user fetched in parallel from the same
+  egress IP (429s + duplicate work). Do **not** scale `serve` past 1 replica without first moving
+  discovery to a k8s CronJob or adding leader election. The process logs a `Warn` at startup when
+  scheduled discovery is enabled, as a reminder.

+# Spec — Landing page + documentation reconciliation
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-03
+**Status:** Ready to build
+**Scope:** Two parallel workstreams — (A) a public landing page; (B) reconciling the
+requirements / use-case / architecture / data-model docs against the deployed reality
+(v0.4.0). These are separate concerns; do not let one worker do both, or the audit gets
+done cursorily.
+
+All work: read `CLAUDE.md` + `DECISIONS.md` first. TBD — commit directly to `main`, one
+logical change per commit, conventional commits, `task check` green before every commit.
+After editing any `.templ`, run `templ generate` (the repo commits both `views.templ` and the
+generated `views_templ.go`).
+
+---
+
+## Workstream A — Public landing page
+
+### Goal
+A public landing page at `/welcome`, in the established bubbletea aesthetic, that lets a
+visitor sign in (one Dex flow) and, if already logged in, jump to their Tapir page or log out.
+New public transport surface only — no engine/core change (ADR-003).
+
+### Verified facts (read from `internal/web/oidc/oidc.go` @ main — do not re-guess)
+- Auth endpoints are exactly `/auth/login`, `/auth/callback`, `/auth/logout`.
+- `isPublicPath(p)` = `p == "/healthz" || strings.HasPrefix(p, "/auth/")` — the single
+  public-route chokepoint inside `DexAuth.Middleware`.
+- `DexAuth.CurrentUser(r) (web.User, bool)` reads the session cookie and does NOT redirect —
+  this is the "peek" the landing page uses to branch logged-in vs logged-out.
+- `handleCallback` redirects to `/` on success (correct — leave as-is).
+- `handleLogout` currently redirects to `loginPath` (`/auth/login`) — this is wrong for this
+  feature (see A3).
+- There is NO separate "sign up" against Dex/OIDC: one authorization flow. Registration is
+  Tapir's own `/register` step (ADR-012), reached after first login for an unknown subject.
+
+### Tasks
+**A1 — make `/welcome` public.** In `oidc.go`, extend `isPublicPath`:
+```go
+func isPublicPath(p string) bool {
+    return p == "/healthz" || p == "/welcome" || strings.HasPrefix(p, "/auth/")
+}
+```
+
+**A2 — unauthenticated bare-`/` → `/welcome`; deep links unchanged.** In `DexAuth.Middleware`,
+the unauthenticated branch currently always calls `redirectToLogin`. Change it so that when
+`r.URL.Path == "/"` an unauthenticated visitor is redirected to `/welcome`; for any other
+guarded path keep `redirectToLogin` (so a shared `/v/{id}` deep link still bounces through Dex
+and returns to the destination). Keep the `isPublicPath` check first (redirect-loop guard).
+
+**A3 — logout lands on `/welcome`, not login.** In `handleLogout`, change the final redirect
+from `loginPath` to `/welcome`. As written it sends the user to `/auth/login`, which
+immediately starts a fresh Dex login — visibly failing to log out. This intentionally breaks
+the existing logout test (oidc_test.go) which asserts redirect to `/auth/login`; update that
+test to expect `/welcome`. That break is expected, not a regression.
+
+**A4 — mount the landing handler** in `internal/web/handlers.go` `Router()`, on `root`,
+OUTSIDE `Auth.Middleware`, alongside `/healthz`:
+```go
+root.HandleFunc("GET /welcome", a.handleWelcome)
+```
+`handleWelcome` peeks `a.Auth.CurrentUser(r)` and renders `WelcomePage(user, ok)`. Not behind
+`Auth.Middleware` or `registrationGate`.
+
+**A5 — `WelcomePage` templ component** in `views.templ`. Reuse the existing shared
+layout/header partial and the established aesthetic (#7653FC purple rounded ╭─╮╰─╯ box, pink
+tapir mascot, #0EF9B6 mint accents) — match the existing pages, do not reinvent styling.
+- Logged out (`ok == false`): tapir mascot + tagline; one primary CTA **"Get Started"** →
+  `/auth/login`; honest sub-text: "New here? You'll set up your account right after signing in
+  — returning users go straight through." One button only (see verified facts: no separate
+  Dex sign-up; two buttons to the same URL would mislead).
+- Logged in (`ok == true`): "Go to my Tapir" → `/`; "Log Out" → `/auth/logout`. May greet via
+  `user.Email`.
+
+**A6 — tests** (extend `handlers_test.go` patterns). Note `StubAuth.CurrentUser` always returns
+true; for the logged-out case use a fake Auth returning `(web.User{}, false)`.
+- `GET /welcome`, no session → "Get Started" → `/auth/login`.
+- `GET /welcome`, with session → "Go to my Tapir" + "Log Out".
+- Unauthenticated `GET /` → 302 `/welcome`.
+- Unauthenticated `GET /v/{id}` → still 302 `/auth/login` (deep link preserved).
+- Authenticated `GET /` → still serves the list, unchanged.
+- oidc: `handleLogout` → 302 `/welcome` (update the existing test).
+
+**A out of scope:** no Dex config change, no new auth/session logic, no sign-up backend.
+
+---
+
+## Workstream B — Documentation reconciliation
+
+### Why
+The guardrail docs were written before Stage 1 and the web surface. Several now describe the
+opposite of the deployed reality (v0.4.0). Stale guardrail docs are worse than none — a future
+cold session (human or agent) trusts them. This workstream brings requirements, use cases,
+architecture, and data-model back in sync with `main`. Each fix is one commit; cite the ADR or
+migration that is the source of truth.
+
+### Known drift to fix (verified this session — not exhaustive; the worker confirms against code)
+**B1 — `internal/web/auth.go` comments.** The `User.Subject` doc and package doc still say
+"single-user allowlist (ADR-011)" / "Stage-0". Code is multi-user (ADR-012). Update the
+comments to describe the current multi-user reality; reference ADR-012.
+
+**B2 — `docs/data-model.md` isolation status.** It says isolation enforcement is "dormant at
+Stage 0". It is now LIVE: Postgres RLS, `FORCE`d on all user-owned tables, with a passing
+two-user isolation test (ADR-012, migration 003). Rewrite that section to describe enforced
+RLS as the current state; keep the history honest (was dormant at Stage 0, enforced from
+Stage 1).
+
+**B3 — `docs/data-model.md` schema completeness.** The doc predates migrations 002–006. Add
+the entities/columns that now exist: `summary_actions` (002), RLS (003), `user_identities`
+(004, dex_subject→user_id), `video_connections` (005), `users.auto_summarize` +
+`videos.summarize_requested` (006). The ER section should match the live schema. Cross-check
+against `internal/adapters/store/migrations/*.up.sql` — those are ground truth.
+
+**B4 — `docs/architecture/architecture.md`.** Predates the entire web surface. Update the C4
+container diagram and text to include: `tapir serve` (HTMX+Templ web reader/writer), the Dex
+OIDC session layer (`internal/web/oidc`), registration gate, web-initiated YouTube connect,
+account management, and the immediate-processing path (web "Summarize" button → background
+goroutine → status poll). The engine/ports/sinks core is unchanged (ADR-003) — show the web
+surface as a new transport over the same core, not a core change.
+
+**B5 — `docs/use-cases/*.feature`.** Add scenarios for the behaviours now live and unspecced:
+register (new subject → registration → user row; returning user straight through), connect
+YouTube (web OAuth), disconnect, delete-account (cascade + secret purge, Dex untouched —
+ADR-013), manual-vs-auto summarize mode + the Summarize button, and the landing page
+(logged-out CTA; logged-in shortcuts). Keep them as executable-style Gherkin consistent with
+the existing files.
+
+**B6 — `DECISIONS.md` ADR ordering (cosmetic).** ADR-010 sits before ADR-009/011 (append
+order). Reorder to numeric while you're in the file. Pure tidy, no content change.
+
+**B7 — requirements check.** If a requirements doc exists (e.g. `docs/ui-spec.md`, referenced
+by ADR-011), reconcile it with what shipped: note where the build deviated (e.g. the spinner /
+immediate processing / summarize mode were beyond the original spec) so the spec reflects
+reality or explicitly records the deviation. Do not silently rewrite history — record
+deviations as deviations.
+
+### B working method
+- Source of truth order: migrations + code > ADRs > prose docs. When a prose doc disagrees
+  with code, the code wins and the doc is corrected (unless the code is the bug — then flag it,
+  don't quietly doc around it).
+- One logical doc per commit. Cite the ADR/migration that justifies each change in the commit
+  body.
+- This is an audit, not a rewrite: preserve the docs' structure and the "rejected alternatives
+  / history" honesty. The goal is *current and trustworthy*, not *pretty*.
+
+---
+
+## Coordination
+A and B touch mostly different files (A: oidc.go, handlers.go, views.templ, tests; B: docs/* +
+auth.go comments). The one overlap is `auth.go` (B1 edits comments) vs A (reads it) — no
+conflict. Run A and B in parallel; commit independently to `main`.
+
+If anything in B reveals that code, not docs, is wrong (e.g. an isolation gap, a migration that
+doesn't match the data-model intent), STOP and surface it — that's a finding, not a doc edit.

+# Spec — Newest-first batch ordering + honest "Try now" / prioritisation docs
+
+> **Extended by ADR-020 (2026-06-08).** This spec covers the *batch processing* order within a
+> pass. ADR-020 adds (a) a recency pre-filter — auto mode skips videos published before
+> `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW`, listed but summarised on demand — and (b) the same
+> `published_at DESC NULLS LAST` ordering on the **list read** (`ListVideos`), which previously
+> sorted by `seen_at`. See `DECISIONS.md` ADR-020.
+
+**Repo:** tapir · **Size:** small · **Solo session.**
+
+**Why.** Product intent (maintainer, 2026-06-06): a new user should get summaries of their
+**newest** videos quickly, while the older back-catalogue fills in behind — all within the one
+shared rate gate. Today the foreground path ("Try now" button) lets a user hand-pick a video,
+but the **background batch processes in subscription/channel order, not newest-first** — so a new
+user with a large candidate set sees the batch summarise whatever channel is first in their
+subscription list, not their newest videos. This slice makes the batch agree with the intent, and
+fixes the docs to describe the real rationale (onboarding prioritisation), not the
+traffic-disguising framing a prior session wrote.
+
+Read `CLAUDE.md` + `DECISIONS.md` (ADR-014, ADR-018) first. TBD, conventional commits,
+`task check` green per commit, `templ generate` if views change.
+
+## 1. Newest-first batch ordering (the build)
+In `internal/runner/runner.go` `RunOnce`: today the loop processes each video inline while
+walking subscriptions channel-by-channel (`for sub → NewVideos → for v → process`). Change so
+that, within a pass, **candidates are processed newest-first across ALL channels**:
+- Collect the candidate videos across channels first (after dedup/seen/manual/rate-limit
+  filtering as today), then **sort by `published_at` descending before processing**, then process
+  in that order through the engine + shared `globalFetchGate`.
+- **`published_at` is nullable** (schema 001). Sort **NULLS LAST** — videos with no publish date
+  must not jump ahead of dated newest videos. Decide a stable tiebreak (e.g. `seen_at DESC`) for
+  equal/again-null dates.
+- Keep all existing behaviour: per-item failure isolation, the rate-limit backoff skip, manual
+  mode, channel-unavailable handling, stats. Ordering is the only change — not what gets
+  processed, just the order.
+- At 868 candidates a collect-then-sort in memory is fine; do **not** build a streaming/external
+  sort. Keep it simple.
+- The shared rate gate (`globalFetchGate`) is unchanged and still governs fetch pacing — ordering
+  does not bypass or weaken it.
+
+**Optional (only if cheap and clearly correct):** a soft cap so the *first* pass for a brand-new
+user summarises the newest N (e.g. 20) quickly and defers the long tail to subsequent passes — so
+onboarding value lands fast without waiting for the whole sorted set. If this adds real
+complexity, SKIP it and just do the newest-first ordering; the ordering alone delivers the intent.
+
+## 2. Tests
+- Given candidates across multiple channels with mixed `published_at` (incl. some NULL), assert
+  the processing order is newest-first, NULLS LAST, with the chosen tiebreak. Use the existing
+  fake VideoStore/Processor pattern in `runner_test.go`.
+- Assert ordering does not change *which* videos are processed vs. today (same set, new order).
+- Rate-gate / backoff / manual-mode behaviour unchanged (existing tests stay green).
+
+## 3. Docs — describe the REAL rationale (replace prior framing)
+The "Try now" button and the discovery batch together implement **onboarding prioritisation**:
+foreground (user-clicked "Try now") summarises a specific video on demand; background batch
+summarises newest-first; both honour the shared rate gate. **Update the docs to state this intent
+— and explicitly REMOVE/replace any framing that describes "Try now" as making traffic "look
+organic to YouTube" or evading rate limits.** That is not the rationale. The rationale is: *get
+the user a few summaries of their newest, most relevant videos fast; process the back-catalogue in
+the background; always within the honest shared rate limit.* Rate limiting is **respected**, not
+evaded.
+- `docs/ui-spec.md`: "Try now" = on-demand foreground summarisation of a chosen (typically newer)
+  video; rationale = fast onboarding value, not traffic shaping.
+- `docs/architecture/architecture.md`: document the two-path model — foreground on-demand vs.
+  background newest-first batch, both through `globalFetchGate` — and the newest-first ordering.
+- Any requirements/use-case doc mentioning discovery order: state newest-first.
+- If a brain note or `wiki` entry captured the "looks organic" rationale, correct it there too.
+
+## Boundaries
+- Do NOT increase fetch rate or weaken the rate gate. Account-safety constraint stands: the
+  caption endpoint is unofficial (ADR-010) and must be treated with honest backoff, never evasion.
+- Do NOT touch RLS, credentials, or the Dex surface.
+- Ordering change is within a pass only — no persisted priority queue, no new table.
+
+## Out of scope
+Per-user configurable ordering; priority weighting beyond newest-first; the soft-cap if it proves
+non-trivial.

+# Spec — In-process scheduled discovery + auto-summarize + rate-gate finish
+
+> **Extended by ADR-020 (2026-06-08).** Auto-summarize is no longer "every unseen video": the
+> scheduler now skips videos published before `TAPIR_AUTO_SUMMARIZE_WINDOW` (default ~7d) unless
+> explicitly requested, so a back-catalogue does not re-drive the rate gate every cycle. See
+> `DECISIONS.md` ADR-020.
+
+**Repo:** tapir · **Size:** medium · **Solo session** (not a swarm).
+
+**Why this exists.** The Stage-0 gate ("me or a friend returns and reads/acts in ≥2 separate
+weeks") cannot be met because the system is not usable *unprompted*: discovery (`tapir run`) is
+host-side manual, so a newly onboarded user sees an empty list and never comes back. This slice
+makes Tapir watch on its own — the thing that makes the gate experiment actually runnable.
+
+Read `CLAUDE.md` + `DECISIONS.md` (esp. ADR-012, ADR-014, and the new ADR-018) first. TBD —
+commit directly to `main`, one logical change per commit, conventional commits, `task check`
+green before each commit. `templ generate` if any view changes.
+
+## Decisions already made (do not reopen)
+- **In-process scheduler**, NOT a k8s CronJob (maintainer's call: simpler deploy, acceptable
+  coupling at 3 users). The known cost — discovery shares the web process's lifetime and egress
+  — is accepted and recorded in ADR-018.
+- **Auto-summarize ON** for the maintainer + onboarded friends (zero-friction: the list fills
+  and summarizes itself).
+- **Gate clock resets** to when this ships (ADR-018) — until unprompted use is possible, the
+  prior window measured nothing.
+
+## 1. In-process scheduled discovery (core)
+- In `tapir serve` startup, launch a background goroutine that runs discovery for ALL users on
+  an interval: env `TAPIR_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL` (Go duration, e.g. `2h`). **Unset or 0 = disabled**
+  (so dev/tests never auto-fetch).
+- **Reuse the existing `runner.Runner` + `Loop`/`RunOnce`. Do NOT write a new scheduler.** The
+  per-user Runner already exists; the new work is **iterating users** and running one pass each
+  per tick. Enumerate users from the un-RLS'd `user_identities` (the same enumerate-then-act
+  pattern the login_events gate query established), then run each user's pass **inside that
+  user's RLS scope** (`withUser`).
+- **Stateless timing:** run-once-on-startup, then every interval — exactly the existing `Loop`
+  shape. Do NOT persist schedule state; a pod restart just restarts the cycle. Acceptable at this
+  scale. Do not build cron-in-Go.
+- **Graceful shutdown:** the goroutine respects `ctx` cancellation so a pod term doesn't wedge.
+- **Failure isolation in the loop:** one user's pass failing (or one channel/video) must not
+  abort the other users or crash `serve` — log and continue. (RunOnce already collects per-item
+  errors; preserve that at the per-user level too.)
+
+## 2. Auto-summarize default ON for Future-B users
+- New registrations default `auto_summarize = true` (so onboarded friends get zero-friction);
+  keep the account-page toggle so a user can switch to manual. One-off update existing user rows
+  to `true` as well (maintainer + any current users).
+- Consequence (intended): scheduled discovery both discovers AND summarizes new videos — which
+  is the point, and is why §3 is mandatory in the same slice.
+
+## 3. Finish/confirm the ADR-014 shared per-egress-IP rate gate (NOW load-bearing)
+- In-process scheduling + auto-summarize + multiple users = all caption fetches leave the **one
+  web pod's egress IP**, concurrently with any live "Summarize" button clicks. The timedtext
+  endpoint rate-limits per IP (ADR-010/014). Without a shared gate this self-inflicts 429s every
+  cycle.
+- **Confirm in code whether ADR-014 item 2 (a single PROCESS-WIDE rate gate) exists.**
+  Reconciliation flagged it as possibly built only as per-*video* backoff. If it is not a
+  process-wide gate, **build it now**: ONE shared limiter (token-bucket / min-interval) that
+  every timedtext/caption fetch passes through — scheduler loop AND click-path alike. Per-process,
+  not per-user, not per-video.
+- Keep the existing per-video 429 backoff (`rate_limited_at` + retry window) — complementary: the
+  gate prevents tripping 429; the backoff handles it if one still happens.
+- Honest UX (ADR-014 item 3) still applies: a fetch waiting on the gate shows "queued/waiting",
+  never a stuck spinner.
+
+## 4. Gate-clock reset — already recorded in ADR-018; verify VISION reflects it
+- ADR-018 (committed) resets the Stage-0 3–4 week window to start when this ships, and revises the
+  check-in date. VISION Stage 0 carries a pointer to it. The build doesn't re-decide this; just
+  ensure nothing in docs still implies the clock started earlier.
+
+## Tests
+- **Scheduler:** fake clock + fake Runner → N users each get one pass per tick; one user's failure
+  doesn't stop the others; `ctx` cancel stops the loop; interval=0 disables it entirely.
+- **Rate gate:** concurrent fetches (scheduler + simulated click) are serialized/limited through
+  the ONE gate — assert max-in-flight / min-interval honored regardless of caller.
+- **Auto-summarize default:** new registration → `auto_summarize = true`; account-page toggle
+  still flips it.
+
+## Out of scope / known constraints
+- No CronJob / k8s objects (in-process chosen).
+- **SINGLE-REPLICA ASSUMPTION (load-bearing).** In-process scheduling means if `tapir serve` ever
+  runs >1 replica, every replica runs the discovery loop → every user fetched in parallel (429s +
+  duplicate work). At 3 users this is single-replica, fine — but the build MUST note this
+  constraint in ADR-018 / deploy docs so a future scale-up doesn't silently double-run.
+- No persisted schedules, no multi-pod coordination.
+
+## Fallback if the session runs short
+Ship the scheduler with **auto-summarize OFF** (discovery only; manual Summarize button) until the
+process-wide rate gate (§3) is confirmed/built. NEVER ship auto-summarize-on-a-schedule without the
+gate — that combination self-inflicts 429s for every user every cycle. Auto-summarize ON is gated
+on §3 being done.

+# Spec — Stage 0 usage measurement (login events)
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-03
+**Status:** Ready to build · **Repo:** tapir · **Size:** small (one migration + middleware + query)
+**Why:** The Stage 0 gate (VISION, ADR-016) is *return usage in ≥2 separate weeks*. `summary_actions`
+captures *acts* (watch/skip/save) but not *reads* — a friend who logs in weekly and reads summaries
+without clicking anything is invisible. For a **reading** product that is the most important signal.
+This adds the missing data so the gate is measurable as written. Solo session, not a swarm.
+
+Read `CLAUDE.md` + ADR-016 first. TBD, conventional commits, `task check` green before each commit.
+
+## Scope (resist sprawl — this is NOT analytics)
+
+A lightweight, append-only record of *when each user was active*, enough to answer
+"returned/read in ≥N distinct weeks". Not page-level events, not click tracking, not a funnel.
+
+### 1. Migration — `login_events` (append-only)
+```
+login_events (
+  id        UUID PK default gen_random_uuid(),
+  user_id   UUID NOT NULL,          -- per-user; RLS like every user-owned table
+  seen_at   TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL default NOW()
+)
+INDEX (user_id, seen_at)
+```
+- **RLS:** `FORCE ROW LEVEL SECURITY`, same policy/pattern as the other user-owned tables (the
+  `tapir.current_user_id` GUC via the `withUser` seam — match migration 003). A reporting query that
+  needs cross-user counts runs as the owner/maintainer outside the per-user scope, or via a dedicated
+  read — decide consistently with how existing admin-ish reads are done.
+- Append-only: no updates, no deletes except the user-delete cascade. **Add to the delete-account
+  cascade** (ADR-013) — `login_events` has no FK (mirrors `summary_actions`), so `DeleteUser` needs an
+  explicit delete for it, and the delete test must assert it's covered. *Do not forget this* — it's the
+  exact footgun the last delete work caught.
+
+### 2. Middleware — throttled stamp
+- In the authenticated request path (after `CurrentUserID` resolves, inside the registration-gated
+  app — NOT on `/welcome`/`/healthz`/`/auth`), record one `login_events` row **per user per day**
+  (throttle: skip if a row exists for this user with `seen_at` ≥ start-of-today). One insert per active
+  day, not per request — keeps the table small and the signal clean.
+- Throttle check must itself be RLS-scoped (`withUser`). Keep it cheap (indexed lookup).
+
+### 3. Query — the gate report
+Provide a query (and optionally a tiny `tapir report` CLI subcommand or an admin page — your call,
+CLI is fine) answering, per user:
+```sql
+-- distinct active weeks from reads (login_events) AND acts (summary_actions), unioned
+WITH weeks AS (
+  SELECT user_id, date_trunc('week', seen_at) AS wk FROM login_events
+  UNION
+  SELECT user_id, date_trunc('week', acted_at) FROM summary_actions
+)
+SELECT user_id, COUNT(DISTINCT wk) AS active_weeks
+FROM weeks GROUP BY user_id
+ORDER BY active_weeks DESC;
+```
+Gate passes when any user_id (maintainer or friend) reaches `active_weeks >= 2` within the window.
+
+## Honesty caveats to carry (from VISION/ADR-016)
+- **"Unprompted" is not measurable here.** login_events records *that* a user returned, not *why*. A
+  nudged return looks identical to an organic one. This build does not close that gap and must not
+  claim to — the VISION measurement note stands: count returns, read a nudged return as weaker signal.
+  (If prompt-tracking is ever wanted, that's a separate decision, not this build.)
+- **Data accrues from deploy onward.** The gate window's read-data starts when this ships — so ship
+  soon (maintainer's call) rather than batching with the infra tooling session.
+- **`date_trunc('week')` is ISO/timezone-sensitive** and noisy at low volume (N=3). Two visits days
+  apart can fall in the same or different weeks. Acceptable, but don't over-read a single-week-margin
+  pass/fail.
+
+## Out of scope
+Page/event analytics; prompt-vs-organic tracking; dashboards beyond the one gate query; anything
+touching the engine or sinks (this is web/store only — ADR-003 holds).
+
+## Tests
+- Migration up/down; RLS on `login_events` (extend the two-user isolation test to cover it).
+- Throttle: N requests same day → 1 row; next day → 2nd row.
+- `DeleteUser` removes the user's `login_events` and leaves others' intact (extend the delete test).
+- The gate query returns correct distinct-week counts across a seeded reads+acts fixture.

+# Spec — Unify video-card states: one "Summarize now" verb, honest no-captions state
+
+> **Superseded in part by ADR-020 (2026-06-08).** The five card states still hold, but the copy
+> changed: the nudge verb is now **"Summarize"** (not "Summarize now"), the rate-limited state
+> reads **"In queue"** (not "Fetching soon…"), and the queued state reads **"summarizing
+> shortly"** (not "waiting for the next run"). The list also now collapses older un-summarized
+> and caption-less videos. See `DECISIONS.md` ADR-020 and `views.templ` (`VideoCard`) for the
+> current copy; this doc is kept as the original design record.
+
+**Repo:** tapir · **Size:** small, **view-layer only** (`views.templ` + a little CSS in
+`view.go`; regenerate `views_templ.go`). No handler, store, or DB change. The two existing
+handlers (`/summarize`, `/retry-now`) stay exactly as they are — only what the card *shows*
+changes.
+
+**Why.** The video card today presents two different verbs — "Try now" (`.btn-retry`, on
+rate-limited videos) and "Summarize" (`.btn-secondary`, on pending videos) — for what the user
+experiences as one intent: *"summarize this video now."* The user doesn't know or care about the
+internal pipeline state (rate-limited vs. manual-queue); two differently-labelled, differently-
+styled buttons leak that state machine into the UI as a choice. Also: a **no-captions video
+(`TranscriptStatus == "none"`) currently falls into the `else` branch and wrongly shows a
+"Summarize" button** that, if clicked, tries and fails — there are no captions to fetch. That's
+the confusing dead-end to remove.
+
+In normal use the maintainer is in **auto mode**, so these buttons are *exceptions*, not the main
+path — videos summarize themselves. So the card should be **status-first**: the state is what the
+user reads constantly; the manual nudge is a small, quiet affordance for impatience, not a
+prominent call-to-action.
+
+## The honest per-state card model (footer of `VideoCard`)
+
+Restructure the footer branch in `VideoCard` (in `internal/web/views.templ`) to these states.
+The branch ORDER matters (summarized first, then terminal/no-action states, then actionable):
+
+1. **Summarized** — preview + provider chip + fallback badge + actions. **No button.** (unchanged)
+2. **No captions** (`r.TranscriptStatus == "none"`) — **NEW branch.** Quiet status text, e.g.
+   `No transcript available` (use a muted `.card-state`/`.chip-retry`-style treatment, NOT a
+   button). This is a terminal honest dead-end — the user can do nothing, so offer nothing.
+3. **Queued / requested** (`r.SummarizeRequested`) — "Queued · waiting for the next run". **No
+   button.** (unchanged)
+4. **Rate-limited** (`r.TranscriptStatus == "rate_limited"`) — quiet status (keep the
+   "fetching soon" sense) + a **quiet "Summarize now"** button POSTing to `retryNowURL` (clears
+   backoff then processes). Same quiet style as state 5.
+5. **Pending** (else — discovered, not yet attempted) — quiet "Not summarized" + a **quiet
+   "Summarize now"** button POSTing to `summarizeURL` (flips the queue flag then processes).
+
+## Unify the verb and the style
+- **One label everywhere a manual nudge is offered: "Summarize now"** (states 4 and 5). Drop the
+  "Try now" wording entirely.
+- **One quiet style** for both: use the understated `.btn-retry` pattern (small, pill, outline,
+  transparent bg) — NOT `.btn-secondary`/`.btn` (heavier). Rename the CSS class to something
+  state-neutral (e.g. `.btn-quiet` or `.btn-summarize-now`) so it no longer reads as
+  "retry"-specific; keep the same visual. The point: the nudge is subtle, status is primary.
+- Keep both `<form>`s posting to their respective existing handler URLs
+  (`retryNowURL` for rate-limited, `summarizeURL` for pending) with the existing HTMX
+  attributes (`hx-post`, `hx-target=#video-{id}`, `hx-swap=outerHTML`) — only the button
+  label/class change. The backend side-effect difference (clear-backoff vs. set-flag) stays
+  invisible to the user, which is correct.
+- Drop the engineer-facing `title="Fetch transcript now through the shared rate gate"` tooltip;
+  if a hint is wanted, make it user-facing ("Summarize this one now").
+
+## Quietness check (the design intent)
+The summary content and the per-state *status* are the card's primary information. The "Summarize
+now" button is a minor affordance. Do not make it a prominent solid-accent CTA — it must read as
+"you can nudge this if you're impatient", not "action required". Status text uses muted styling;
+the button uses the quiet outline style.
+
+## Tests
+- `videocard_internal_test.go` (exists): assert each of the 5 states renders the expected
+  footer — summarized (no button), no-captions (status, NO button, no `summarize`/`retry-now`
+  URL present), queued (no button), rate-limited ("Summarize now" → retry-now URL), pending
+  ("Summarize now" → summarize URL). The key new assertion: **a `none`-status video renders no
+  action button and no POST URL.**
+- Assert the label string "Try now" no longer appears anywhere in rendered output.

+## Out of scope
+Handler/DB changes; the detail-page action buttons (watched/skipped/saved — unrelated); the
+pipeline stats bar wording; auto/manual mode behaviour. Verb/label/style/no-captions-state only.

+## Deviations and additions (as-built)
+
+This spec describes the **Stage-0 single-user reader** (ADR-011). What actually shipped through
+v0.4.0 went further — Stage 1 (ADR-012) opened multi-user, and several UX features were added on
+top. Recorded here (append-only; the spec above is left intact) so intent and reality stay
+distinguishable.
+
+| As-built feature | What it is | Why | Covered by |
+|------------------|-----------|-----|------------|
+| **Multi-user + RLS isolation** | Several Dex users per deployment; isolation enforced by Postgres RLS, not the single-subject allowlist of §6. | Maintainer opened Stage 1 ahead of the formal Stage-0 gate, with DB-enforced isolation as the guardrail that keeps it safe. | ADR-012; migration 003 (`6775e5f`, `f28fdc0`, `2ae66da`) |
+| **Registration gate** | A Dex subject with no `users` row is routed to `/register`, which creates the `users` row + a `user_identities` mapping. (§2 listed "sign-up / user CRUD" as a non-goal.) | Explicit registration is how a multi-user surface stays honest — no just-in-time row creation. | ADR-012; `f396e01` |
+| **Per-user YouTube web connect** | `/oauth/youtube/connect` → `/oauth/youtube/callback` stores a per-user refresh-token ref + a `video_connections` row. (The spec assumed a host-side `tapir auth` only.) | Multi-user means each user connects their own account from the browser. | ADR-006, ADR-012; migration 005 (`0c9531a`, `2aad79b`) |
+| **Account management** | `/account` page with **disconnect** and **delete account**; delete removes only Tapir-side state and leaves the Dex identity intact. (§2 listed isolation/CRUD as non-goals.) | A real account needs a way out; deletion semantics are deliberately Tapir-side only. | ADR-013; `22eafcf`, `c7624d9`, `17d5e8c` |
+| **Immediate web summarization** | A quiet "Summarize now" button on non-summarized video cards. Pending cards POST to `/v/{id}/summarize` (queues + triggers engine); rate-limited cards POST to `/v/{id}/retry-now` (clears backoff + triggers engine). Both use the same `.btn-quiet` style and label — the internal pipeline distinction is invisible to the user. The page HTMX-polls `GET /v/{id}/status` while processing. Videos with `TranscriptStatus == "none"` show "No transcript available" with no button — this is a terminal honest state. (§2 said "triggering runs from the browser … do NOT build".) | Reading a list you can't act on is half a product; on-demand summarize closes the loop without waiting for a batch `tapir run`. | ADR-012, ADR-014; `25215cb`, `8c6c7ca` |
+| **Charmbracelet tapir spinner** | An animated in-flight indicator (charm palette) shown while a summarize is processing; an honest "queued/waiting" state under rate-limiting rather than a stuck spinner. | The spinner must tell the truth when the timedtext endpoint rate-limits (429), not imply imminence. | ADR-014; `25215cb`, `a4aeb5e` |
+| **Auto/manual summarization mode** | Per-user `auto_summarize`; manual lists new videos unsummarized and queues via `summarize_requested`; a mode toggle at `/account/summarize-mode`. Default is **true** for new users (migration 011, ADR-018); existing rows back-filled via migration 012. | Control over compute/noise — only summarize what the user cares about. | migration 006 (`748d5eb`, `bdbdce7`, `3014ee0`, `a269d4a`); migration 011/012 |
+| **Public landing page** | `/welcome` mounted **outside** the auth guard; unauthenticated `/` redirects there; logout returns there (not `/auth/login`). (The spec guarded everything except `/healthz` and `/auth/*`.) | A first-time visitor needs a public "what is this / get started" page before the login wall. | `d83943c`, `0fdf2f7`, `3a27bf1`, `d208110`, `8ca374e`, `f15f57f` |
+| **Invite onboarding** | **Removed from Tapir (ADR-019).** Invites are owned by the IdP (Authentik) now, not Tapir — the Dex local-password provisioning path (`tapir invite` CLI, `/invite/{token}` web flow, `internal/adapters/dex`) was deleted when the homelab migrated Dex→Authentik (infra ADR-0001). A new user is invited via Authentik's invite flow, logs into Tapir via OIDC, and is captured by the existing `/register` (display-name) gate. | Onboarding belongs to the identity provider; keeps Tapir out of the shared identity provider's write path. | ADR-019; infra ADR-0001 |
+| **Summarized-only filter** | `?summarized=1` query param on the list view. When set, only videos with a completed summary (`SummaryRow.Summarized = true`) are shown. Rendered as a "Summarized only" checkbox in the filter form. Summarized videos also sort to the top of the unfiltered list (`ORDER BY (s.id IS NOT NULL) DESC, seen_at DESC`). | Lets users focus on videos that are ready to read; newly landing summaries are visible at the top without filtering. | `internal/web/view.go` (`Filter.OnlySummarized`, `ListVideos` ORDER BY) |
+| **"Summarize now" foreground path** | Unified quiet nudge button on actionable non-summarized cards. Five explicit card states — (1) summarized: chip + no button; (2) no captions (`transcript_status = 'none'`): "No transcript available", no button; (3) queued: "Queued" chip, no button; (4) rate-limited: "Fetching soon…" + "Summarize now" → `POST /v/{id}/retry-now` (clears `rate_limited_at`, triggers engine); (5) pending: "Not summarized" + "Summarize now" → `POST /v/{id}/summarize` (queues + triggers engine). One verb, one style (`.btn-quiet`); backend difference invisible to user. Both handlers call `ProcessVideo` through `globalFetchGate`. Rate gate respected, not bypassed — this is onboarding prioritisation. | Fast onboarding value; honest dead-end for no-captions videos (no button that fails). | `internal/web/handlers.go` (`handleRetryNow`, `handleRequestSummarize`); `internal/web/views.templ` (`VideoCard`) |

+# Tapir — Heuristic Review (Stage-0, sparse + recency-bounded)
+
+_Findings document, not a build spec. The maintainer filters; a spec follows separately.
+Reviewed against `VISION.md` (Stage-0 gate), `docs/ui-spec.md`, `internal/web/views.templ` +
+`view.go`, the prior `UX-REVIEW.md` pass, and the current screenshots. Written for the product
+**as it actually is**: ~283 discovered, ~15 summarized, ~256 in queue behind a respected per-IP
+caption rate limit, ~12 no-captions; single-user (maintainer) with friends pending; recency-
+bounded auto-summarize about to ship (auto = recent ~7d, older browsable + manual on demand)._
+
+## Reviewer stance
+
+The Stage-0 gate is **return usage**. So every finding is judged by one question: does this make
+the maintainer (or a friend) come back to an honestly-sparse feed? The visual layer is already
+decent — dark mode, cards, the constrained reader were all fixed in the prior pass. The open
+problems are **expectation-setting, honesty-of-scale, and the recency feed** — not pixels.
+
+**The single biggest risk:** a new user connects, sees `15 summarized · 256 fetching soon`,
+nothing visibly moves, and never returns. The whole gate dies at that moment. Most P0s below
+attack that one moment.
+
+## Tagging
+
+- **`[NOW]`** — improves the product as it is today (sparse, recency-bounded, single-user). Ships
+  in the upcoming bundle.
+- **`[LATER]`** — improves the product we hope it becomes (abundance, engagement, multiple users).
+  Valuable but premature until real usage validates the core loop.
+
+Severity: 🔴 breaks the core loop · 🟠 hurts it · 🟡 noticeable · 🔵 polish.
+
+---
+
+## P0 — fix before/with the recency ship
+
+### 1. 🔴 Empty-connected state tells the user to run a CLI command they can't run — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** After connecting YouTube, the empty list says: *"Run `tapir run` to discover your
+subscriptions."* A friend on the web has no shell. And post-ADR-018 discovery is an in-process
+scheduled loop — so the instruction is wrong *even for the maintainer*. It is the first thing a
+newly-onboarded user sees, and it is an impossible, stale instruction.
+**Principle.** Match between system and the real world; help users recognize, not be blocked
+(Nielsen #1, #2, #9).
+**Proposal.** Replace with a passive, honest "we're working" state: *"Your account is connected.
+Tapir is finding your subscriptions and fetching captions — summaries appear here gradually. Check
+back later."* No command. No imperative the user can't satisfy.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `summaryList` → `.empty-connected`.
+
+### 2. 🔴 No expectation set for *gradual* fill — the return loop breaks at the cliff — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Captions are rate-limited by design; the backlog trickles over days. Nothing tells
+the user this. A first visit shows few/no summaries and no "come back" framing. The Stage-0 gate
+is literally about returns, and the product never asks for one or explains why patience is
+warranted.
+**Principle.** Visibility of system status (#1). And: the gate can't be cleared if the UX doesn't
+survive first contact.
+**Proposal.** One honest sentence near the pipeline bar / empty state: *"Tapir fetches captions
+slowly on purpose, to respect YouTube's limits. New summaries land gradually — usually best to
+check back tomorrow."* Turns confusing emptiness into intentional design. Highest-leverage change
+in the review.
+
+### 3. 🟠 "256 fetching soon" overstates imminence — a lie of scale — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** The pipeline bar and rate-limited cards both say "fetching soon." For 256 items
+behind a per-IP throttle, "soon" is false — they trickle over days/weeks. Exactly the abundance-
+implying language the mandate forbids, inverted: it makes the *queue* look imminent.
+**Principle.** Honesty of scarcity (project mandate); #1.
+**Proposal.** Relabel by scale. Bar: `15 ready · 256 in queue · 12 no captions`. Card state:
+"In queue" / "Waiting its turn", not "Fetching soon…". Reserve "soon" for items actually next.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `pipelineBar`; card State 4.
+
+### 4. 🟠 Recency boundary is invisible in the feed — `[NOW, ships with recency]`
+**Problem.** Once auto-summarize is bounded to ~7d, a 6-month-old pending video and a 2-day-old
+pending video render identically ("Not summarized" + button). But only one is in the auto path;
+the other will *never* process unless clicked. The user can't tell "be patient, this is coming"
+from "this is yours to trigger or ignore."
+**Principle.** Visibility of system status; predictability (#1).
+**Proposal.** Bucket the list into two sections: **Recent** (auto, will fill itself) and
+**Older — browse / summarize on demand**. Card status language should encode *which side of the
+line it's on*, not the pipeline internals. Central IA decision of the recency change.
+
+### 5. 🟠 The un-summarized mass buries the ~15 readable summaries — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** ~268 of 283 cards are not readable (pending / queued / no-captions). Summarized-first
+ordering helps, but the page is still 95% noise below the fold. "Attention is the scarce resource"
+is the product's own principle — and the default view violates it.
+**Principle.** Aesthetic/minimalist design; signal-to-noise (#8).
+**Proposal.** Default view = readable summaries + the Recent bucket. Collapse the older
+un-summarized mass behind *"Show 256 older un-summarized videos."* Collapse the 12 no-caption
+videos into a single line: *"12 videos have no captions"* (terminal, never readable — they don't
+deserve 12 full cards).
+
+---
+
+## P1 — high, near-term
+
+### 6. 🟠 "Summarize now" overpromises against the rate gate — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Button says "Summarize now" (title: "Summarize this one now"). Backend queues it
+behind the shared per-IP gate. Click 10 older videos and they all sit at "Fetching soon…". The
+verb sells immediacy the system can't honor.
+**Principle.** Honesty; match system/reality (#1).
+**Proposal.** Drop "now" → "Summarize". On click the card should honestly become "Queued" (it
+already can). Optionally show queue position once the queue is real. Don't engineer the gate
+harder — just stop the verb from lying.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` card States 4 & 5; `handlers.go` `handleRetryNow`,
+`handleRequestSummarize`.
+
+### 7. 🟠 Welcome-page copy is stale and misleading post-ADR-019 — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Landing sub-copy: *"If you have an invite link, it will set up your account
+automatically."* Invites moved to Authentik (ADR-019); Tapir no longer handles invite links. The
+"Get Started" button goes straight to OIDC. The copy promises a flow that no longer exists.
+**Principle.** Match between system and reality (#2); honesty.
+**Proposal.** Rewrite: *"Tapir is invite-only right now. If you've been invited, sign in below."*
+Single CTA. Also set the gradual-fill expectation here (ties to #2) so it lands before the wall,
+not after.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `WelcomePage` → `.welcome-sub`.
+
+### 8. 🟡 "Queued · waiting for the next run" leaks system jargon — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** "the next run" exposes the discovery-loop concept; a user doesn't know what a "run"
+is.
+**Principle.** Speak the user's language (#2).
+**Proposal.** "Queued — summarizing shortly." Hide the scheduler.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` card State 3.
+
+### 9. 🟡 Filters render before there's anything to filter — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** The fresh/empty state shows the full Channel/From/To/Filter bar *above* "Connect
+YouTube." Power tooling stacked on top of the one action that matters.
+**Principle.** Progressive disclosure; minimalist design (#8).
+**Proposal.** Hide the filter bar when there are 0 rows (and arguably below ~20). Show the connect
+CTA alone.
+**Evidence.** `fixes/03-empty-fresh.png`; `ListPage` renders `filterForm` unconditionally.
+
+### 10. 🟡 Date-range filters are dead weight at this scale — `[NOW]` demote / `[LATER]` rebuild
+**Problem.** From/To date pickers + a free-text exact-match Channel field are corpus-scale tools.
+With 15 summaries they're noise; channel-as-freetext is unguessable. (Confirm the prior review's
+#7 is resolved — that `Channel` shows a real channel name, not the `provider` string; seeded
+screenshots suggest it is, live data may differ.)
+**Principle.** Match tool to task; minimalist design.
+**Proposal.** `[NOW]`: reduce to the "Summarized only" toggle (+ maybe channel chips derived from
+present rows). Drop date pickers until the corpus justifies them. `[LATER]`: real channel facets +
+search when there's volume.
+
+---
+
+## P2 — reading experience & polish
+
+### 11. 🟡 Detail leads with Summary; the attention-saving payload (Takeaways) is last — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Product promise is "decide what's worth your time." The element that answers that —
+Takeaways / verdict — sits at the bottom. The user reads a full summary to reach the point.
+**Principle.** Lead with the user's actual job-to-be-done.
+**Proposal.** Reorder or add a one-line TL;DR/verdict at top. Takeaways → Highlights → Summary, or
+a "Worth watching?" lede. Data already exists; a reorder, not new machinery.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `DetailPage`.
+
+### 12. 🔵 No "back to Summaries" on detail — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** Only the brand returns home, losing any filter context.
+**Proposal.** Explicit "← Summaries" link on the detail page.
+
+### 13. 🔵 Auto/manual toggle copy will be wrong after recency — `[NOW, with recency]`
+**Problem.** Account copy: *"Automatic summarizes every new video as it is discovered."* Becomes
+false once auto is bounded to ~7d.
+**Proposal.** *"Automatic summarizes new videos from the last ~7 days. Older videos stay
+browsable — summarize them on demand."*
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `AccountPage` summarization section.
+
+### 14. 🔵 Register step asks acceptance of nonexistent terms — `[NOW]`
+**Problem.** "I accept the terms of use" — no terms linked. For a friends-only tool, ceremony
+accepting nothing.
+**Proposal.** Either link real terms or drop the checkbox at this stage.
+**Evidence.** `views.templ` `RegisterPage`.
+
+### 15. 🔵 watched/skipped mutual exclusivity unsignaled — `[NOW]` low
+**Problem.** Three independent-looking buttons; watched↔skipped are exclusive (carryover from
+prior review #14).
+**Proposal.** Segmented control for watched/skipped; keep Saved separate.
+
+---
+
+## `[LATER]` — premature until the core loop is validated
+
+_(abundance / engagement / multiple users)_
+
+- **Return-nudges (digest email / push).** 🔴 **Caution, not just defer.** A notification that
+  drives returns *contaminates the exact signal the gate measures* — VISION wants *unprompted*
+  returns and admits it can't distinguish prompted from organic. Building a nudge now poisons the
+  experiment. Defer until after the gate reads. `[LATER]`
+- **Full-text search across summaries** — needs volume to matter. `[LATER]`
+- **Channel facets / saved filters / sorting** — corpus-scale tooling (#10). `[LATER]`
+- **Read/unread + "new since last visit"** — genuinely helps returns, but only meaningful once
+  there is throughput to be "new." `[LATER]`
+- **Saved/queue view, collections** — engagement surface; no payoff at 15 items. `[LATER]`
+- **Richer card previews (top-takeaway as preview, 2–3 lines)** — triage aid that only pays off
+  with many cards to triage. `[LATER]`
+- **Backlog progress heartbeat ("N summarized this week", queue burn-down)** — rewards returning,
+  but needs real throughput to show motion; a static "last updated X ago" is the only `[NOW]`-worthy
+  slice. `[LATER]`
+- **Onboarding tour / multi-step welcome** — over-built for one user + a few friends. `[LATER]`
+
+---
+
+## What's already right (don't regress)
+
+Pipeline-bar concept, the honest "No transcript available" terminal state, the queued/waiting
+spinner instead of a fake-imminent one, the Unavailable-channels surface, the constrained-width
+reader, dark mode, the account danger-zone behind a disclosure. The honesty instincts are present
+— the P0s are about making that honesty *legible and correctly-scaled*, not adding it.
+
+## Two judgment calls to settle first
+
+1. **#4 (Recent/Older split) and #5 (collapse the older mass) are one decision viewed twice.**
+   Settle the recency-feed IA once and both fall out.
+2. **The return-nudge caution (`[LATER]` list, item 1) is the one to put in writing now** — before
+   someone "helpfully" ships an email digest to juice the gate and destroys the signal.
