Protocol 3.0 Part A. Replaces the static PUBLIC_KINDS allowlist - which
was the entire public/admin boundary - with per-feature, per-field
audience control an admin owns from Admin -> Shard Visibility.
Closes a live leak. BridgeJson.Actor() writes acct and webId;
shapeGuild() returned the stored payload verbatim; GET
/api/v1/public/shard/guilds is anonymous. Guild leaders' game account
names and website user ids were readable by anyone, and the same path
existed for governors. Both are now projected.
The ladder is anonymous < logged_in < player < staff < admin, each rung
implying the ones below. Staff satisfy `player` without a linked account
(as /player/* already does); `editor` is a content role and gets no
shard privilege, since mapping it to staff would silently widen what
editors see.
Two invariants are code, not configuration, and both reject rather than
silently ignore:
1. acct/webId are admin-only always - not configurable, discarded on
read as well as rejected on write.
2. A kind absent from KIND_FEATURE never reaches anyone below admin.
Fail closed, so a shard emitting a new event degrades to staff-only
rather than to public.
Enforcement is three points over one config: requireFeature() on routes
(404 disabled, 403 out-of-rung) plus field projection; per-connection
filtering on SSE, where a subscriber's rung is resolved once at subscribe
time and frozen so a long-open stream cannot gain privilege; and
/public/shard/features so the SPA hides links it cannot follow.
PUBLIC_KINDS still exists and is still exported (/feed filtering,
notificationStreams) but is now derived from the kind map, so the two
can no longer drift. Defaults reproduce pre-3.0 behavior exactly - a
test pins the derived set against the old allowlist.
Also fixes an SSE resource leak found while testing: a client dropped
because its write threw was removed from the bucket but its keepalive
interval was never cleared, firing forever on a dead socket. Both paths
now go through one drop().
Tests: 478 server (33 new across shardVisibility + shardBroadcast),
43 client. Route manifest and OpenAPI spec regenerated.

Per request, split the single public house registry into three role-scoped views:
- Public /site/houses → only houses in DANGER (IDOC), by LOCATION (region + map/
coords). No owner, price, co-owners or decay detail. Renamed "Houses in danger";
kept live via the public house.decay feed. The full-registry deltas
(house.update / house.remove — which carry owner/price) are REMOVED from the
public SSE allowlist so they never reach the public channel.
- Staff full registry → new /admin/houses (admin + moderator, RoleGate + MOD_PATHS)
backed by GET /admin/shard/houses (modAccess), with owner/price/co-owners/decay
and search, kept live on the admin SSE channel.
- Player portal → "My houses" home-status section (own houses only, with decay/
IDOC status) via GET /player/shard/houses, scoped to the caller's linked accounts.
Server tests green, client build clean, swagger regenerated.

Phase 1 of the Protocol 2.0/2.1 integration: the read/ingest backend for the four
new uo-link boards, following the established champs/pages pattern (ingest → our
MariaDB + snapshot-on-reconnect + public SSE + token-free public endpoint).
- Schema: shard_guilds, shard_governors, shard_governor_terms, shard_presence;
extend shard_houses with the house.update registry columns (owner_name,
co_owners, friends, price, decay, in_registry) so the decay-transition and
registry feeds share one house row without clobbering each other.
- Ingest: route guild.update/remove, city.update, presence.online,
house.update/remove; log guild.join (real-time joins feed); region.enter is
broadcast-only. All new public kinds added to the SSE allowlist.
- Governor term history captured from day one: on every observed governor CHANGE
the open term is closed and a new one opened, idempotent so backfill/duplicate
city.update never spawn spurious terms. votes stays NULL (the feed carries only
candidate count, not tallies) — we never fabricate vote numbers.
- Client + backfill: getGuilds/getGovernors/getHouses/getPresence; snapshot each
board on every WS (re)connect, independently guarded so an empty/failed board
(e.g. no City Loyalty) never wipes another.
- Public endpoints: /shard/{guilds,governors,governors/:city/history,presence,houses}.
- Tests: ingest routing for all new kinds + governor term-capture idempotency
(15 new; full suite 179/179). Swagger regenerated.

Wire up the three uo-link sidecar surfaces that weren't integrated yet.
Champion spawns
- Ingest champ.update/champ.remove into a new shard_champs table (served from
our own store, like online/houses); public /site/champs board with a nav link,
live via the existing SSE feed (champ.* added to the public allowlist).
Staff write plane (admin + moderator)
- kick / ban / unban / broadcast via /admin/shard/*; actor is stamped server-side
from the session, never the browser. Sidecar status codes mapped (403 disabled/
protected, 404 unknown, 503/504 transient). admin.audit events are logged and
surfaced at /admin/shard/audit.
- New admin "In-Game Ops" view (/admin/shard-ops), plus per-account Kick/Ban/Unban
on the user-detail and character views (ShardAccountActions, self-gated to staff).
Help-page (support) queue
- Ingest page.new/updated/closed into a new shard_pages table; respond/close via
/admin/shard/pages/*. Champ board and page queue are snapshotted from the
sidecar's /champs and /pages on every WS (re)connect (guarded so a failed call
never wipes local state).
Verified live end-to-end against MariaDB + the Rust sidecar + ServUO; unit tests
cover ingest routing (shardIngest.champsPages.test.js). Swagger regenerated.

Public "Online now" now lists only players whose game account is linked
to a STAFF website user (admin/editor/moderator) — linked players are no
longer exposed publicly with their name and location. listOnlineLinked
joins through to users and filters on role; the section is relabeled
"Staff online".
Character/roster/vendor reads gain an admin bypass: admins may view any
character's data, while players (and editor/moderator staff) stay limited
to accounts they have personally linked. The bypass lives in the shared
player controller and only ever widens access for genuine admins.
Also finalizes the uo-link character/vendor front end (player + admin
character sheets, VendorSales component, ShardChar removed) and
regenerates swagger-output.json.

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.
