Protocol 3.0 Part A follow-up, found by the live five-rung smoke test.
Part A implemented the visibility framework correctly on the SSE path
and on /guilds + /governors, but the remaining public REST reads never
called into it. The result was that one event was projected live and
served verbatim from history:
* GET /public/shard/feed returned the stored payload as-is, so
actor.acct and actor.webId were readable ANONYMOUSLY for every
logged kind - player.death, player.murdered, mob.killed,
quest.complete, skill.gain, fame/karma.change, mob.login/logout,
guild.join. Broader than the guild-leader leak Part A set out to
close, since it covers every player rather than board holders.
* GET /public/shard/idoc returned ownerAcct - the house owner's game
account - to anonymous callers.
* The `houses` field rules (owner/price -> staff) were dead config:
neither getIdoc nor getHouses projected, so an admin could set them
in the panel and nothing happened.
* /feed filtered on PUBLIC_KINDS, a module-load constant derived from
the compiled DEFAULTS, so live audience changes did not reach it.
With `guilds` moved to staff, /guilds 403'd while /feed happily
served guild.join to anonymous.
Four fixes, all at the root rather than per-route:
1. Rule 1 now matches a field's MEANING, not one spelling. The wire
nests actors (leader.acct) but the read models flatten them
(shapeHouse -> ownerAcct, shapeGuild -> leaderWebId), and an
exact-key check missed every flattened one. isLockedField() locks a
key that is or ends in acct/webId, case-insensitively, so it fails
closed for shapes not yet written. The admin PUT rejects those
spellings too - `ownerAcct` is no longer configurable.
2. visibleKinds(level, config) resolves readable kinds from the LIVE
config; getFeed uses it and projects each row against its own kind's
feature. Deliberately independent of the `stream` flag, which governs
SSE fan-out only - so market history stays readable with its firehose
off. This makes the set a superset of PUBLIC_KINDS by exactly the two
vendor kinds.
3. getIdoc/getHouses/getChamps/getPresence project, so every shard
surface honours the same config.
4. shardEvents.db.list treats an EMPTY kinds array as "serve nothing".
It previously fell through to the unfiltered query, so a fully-gated
config would have dumped the whole event log, staff audit included.
Also fixes a bug introduced while wiring this up: projectValue recursed
into any object, so a Date column came back as {}. It now walks arrays
and plain objects only. The unit tests used JSON fixtures and could not
have caught it - the live /idoc read did.
Verified live against MariaDB + a stub sidecar, all five rungs: 13
routes x 5 rungs, defaults reproducing pre-v3 access exactly, zero
acct/webId below admin on any read, unmapped kinds (staff.command,
cheat.detect, login.attempt) reaching only admin on SSE, and audience /
enabled / stream changes taking effect live on an already-open stream.
Tests: 487 server (+9). Swagger regenerated; route manifest unchanged.

Front ends for the rest of the sidecar data, plus a security fix the live data
surfaced.
- lib/shardEvents.js: shared describe()/category/label for every event kind
(sales, deaths & PvP, skills, fame/karma, quests, world, and staff kinds).
- Public /site/shard/activity (ShardActivity): the full event log with category
filter tabs and a live tail (history + SSE merged, de-duped). Linked from the
Shard page. Shard page now reuses the shared describe().
- Admin: a "Live feed (all events)" panel on the Shard admin page subscribing to
the admin SSE channel — shows every kind incl. audit/cheat/login attempts.
useShardFeed generalized to take a stream url; api.adminShardStreamUrl added.
Security fix: GET /public/shard/feed now restricts to the public-safe kind
allowlist (shardEvents.list gains a `kinds` IN-filter). Previously it returned
whatever was logged — including audit.* / cheat.* / link.request. Those are
still stored for the admin channel but never served publicly (verified: a
public request for audit.command returns 0 rows).

The site now ingests the sidecar's live WebSocket feed and persists it to its
own MariaDB, and re-broadcasts curated events to browsers over SSE.
- schema: shard_events (append-only notable-kind log, sha1 dedupe_key +
INSERT IGNORE for idempotent reconnect backfill), shard_online (current
players, upsert/refresh/remove), shard_economy (gold-supply series),
shard_houses (per-house decay stage + derived is_idoc).
- model/shardEvents + model/shardState: the .db.js/.model.js split; writes
take camelCase event data, reads are shaped; online upsert uses COALESCE so
a partial char.vitals refresh never blanks login fields.
- utils/shardIngest: single dispatcher routing each kind to state writes
and/or the event log, then the broadcaster. High-frequency kinds
(char.vitals, economy.supply) update state only. A changed server.hello
bootId clears the stale online roster. Deps are injected for unit testing.
- utils/uoLinkSocket: the server's first outbound WS client (ws dep). Verifies
the ws.hello protocol, backfills via /history + /economy on every
(re)connect (dedupe handles overlap), reconnects with capped backoff, and
mirrors connection state into uo_link_config. Self-guards: only connects when
the integration is enabled with a token.
- utils/shardBroadcast: SSE fan-out with public (safe kinds only) and admin
(all) channels, keepalive pings, per-client cleanup.
- server.js: start the ingest socket on boot (no-op until configured) and stop
it + close SSE streams on graceful shutdown.
