news memory + get_news tool (news-07..12): feed summaries, deduped rolling store (schema v6), on-demand filtered retrieval

search_games used `where name ~ "<q>"*`: prefix-only, diacritic- and
word-order-sensitive -- "MARVEL Tōkon" found nothing though IGDB has
it. Switch to IGDB's native `search` clause (relevance-ranked,
diacritic-insensitive).

fetch_url and image downloads read bodies with content.read(n), which
returns only the first buffered chunk (~7 KB): pages collapsed to
their <title>. httpread.read_capped collects chunks up to the byte
cap; image downloads read limit+1 so over-limit files are still
rejected instead of cached truncated (IMG-10).

   fact-level erasure ships with FDB-007 structured memory — stated in
   the user-facing confirmation, not hidden. (Superseded by D-014:
   erasure now covers facts, observations and episode traces.)
+- **D-016** — The reply/ignore classifier fails open (BEH-03): a
+  broken classifier must never mute the bot; the budget gate already
+  bounds spend. Its verdict gates BEFORE the main call, the
+  envelope's answer_needed still gates after — two independent nets.
+- **D-019** — News memory + on-demand tool (SPEC-013 NEWS-07..12):
+  the news pipeline now carries item summaries (feed descriptions,
+  HTML-stripped) and persists every fetched item into a deduped `news`
+  table (schema v6), pruned to a rolling window (`news-keep`). Both the
+  kroa digest run and the ggg posting run write to it, so the store is
+  a single searchable source across both models. A `get_news` tool
+  reads that store (topic/source-filtered, metered, sanitized) rather
+  than re-fetching feeds live: the ambient `{news}` digest stays a
+  small always-on snapshot, while the tool gives unbounded on-demand
+  reach without a fresh network round-trip per call. The store is the
+  same `bot.db` (WAL) the bot uses; the cron process opens it
+  independently — concurrent reader/writer is what WAL is for.
+- **D-018** — Codex Mechanicus search (FDB-019, SPEC-014): Luma's
+  lore is grounded in the priest's real archive at binaric.tech via a
+  `codex_search` tool over the site's public `search-index.json`, not
+  a bot-side copy — the index stays a single source of truth, refreshed
+  by the site's own publish rite, and the bot caches it in memory
+  (TTL). It reuses SPEC-011's `guard_url` + `read_capped` (fetch is
+  SSRF-guarded and byte-bounded) and sanitizes every returned field:
+  one's own web content is still untrusted by the time it reaches a
+  prompt. Luma-only (`enable-codex`, off elsewhere) — the Adeptus
+  Mechanicus archive has no place in Fjærkroa's café persona.
+- **D-017** — All human-behavior knobs default to off/v3.0.0
+  semantics; behavior changes are config rollouts per deployment, not
+  code flips. The classifier's `factual` flag is the only coupling
+  (delay bypass) and defaults to false without a classifier.
 - **D-015** — Deploys are push-based from the dev machine
   (`git archive <tag> | ssh`), not pull-based: no deploy keys or git
   state on the hosts, the artifact is exactly the tag tree, untracked

+Generation on `image-model` (default `gpt-image-2`), base64 end to

+Optional knobs: `image-size` (default 1024x1024), `image-quality`
+(passed through only when set). The Leonardo path stays behind
+`leonardo-token` until parity is confirmed, then dies. The input

+
+### IMG-01 — Images arrive as base64 buffers (coverage: test)
+
+`draw_openai(description, count)` requests `count` images and returns
+a list of decoded image buffers straight from the API response; every
+generated image is metered in the ledger (SAF-05).
+
+### IMG-02 — The envelope carries picture_count (coverage: test)

+When `image-model` is not a `gpt-image-*` model (e.g. `dall-e-3`),
+the count is clamped to 1 and `response_format="b64_json"` is
+requested explicitly (gpt-image models return base64 natively and
+reject the parameter).
+
+### IMG-05 — Picture prompts go to the API untouched (coverage: test)
+
+The translate-before-draw step is deleted: the model's picture prompt
+reaches the image API verbatim (current image models handle
+Norwegian/German natively). The `translate()` method and its
+`fix-model` dependency are gone (closes D-009).
+
+## Input pipeline (FDB-010)
+
+Attachments live in a content-hash cache
+(`<history-directory>/images/<sha256>.<ext>`, index in the store,
+schema v4). Active only with a store; without one the legacy CDN-URL
+path remains.
+
+### IMG-10 — Attachments are ingested at message time (coverage: test)
+
+Every image attachment is downloaded immediately (timeout, size cap
+`image-max-bytes` default 8 MB) and stored under its content hash.
+Only sniffed png/jpeg/gif/webp bytes are accepted — extension and
+declared MIME are ignored (attacker-controlled). Rejected content is
+dropped and logged (D11 root fix + cache-abuse hardening).
+
+### IMG-11 — Vision reads from the cache, never CDN URLs (coverage: test)
+
+Vision parts are `data:` URLs built from cached bytes. Discord's
+signed, expiring CDN URLs never reach the model or the history.
+
+### IMG-12 — The cache is capped and aged (coverage: test)
+
+`image-cache-mb` (default 500) LRU-evicts oldest-first;
+`image-cache-ttl-days` (default 90) ages entries out. Eviction always
+removes file and index row together.
+
+### IMG-13 — picture_edit edits the newest channel images (coverage: test)
+
+`picture_edit=true` calls `images.edit` with up to the 4 newest
+cached images of the answer channel as inputs (API max is 16; 4 keeps
+prompts sane). An empty cache falls back to plain generation — the
+flag alone must never fail a reply.
+
+### IMG-14 — Deletion propagates to the cache (coverage: test)
+
+Deleting a Discord message purges its cached images; `!forgetme`
+purges all of the user's images — files and rows (extends
+SAF-08/MEM-09).
+
+### IMG-15 — Generated images join the cache (coverage: test)
+
+Bot-generated images are ingested like uploads (user `assistant`), so
+"make a variant of that" remix chains work on the bot's own output.
+
+### IMG-17 — Image-only messages are cached (coverage: test)
+
+A message consisting only of attachments (no text) is ingested into
+the cache and recorded as an observation, even though no reply is
+produced — the image must be available for later `picture_edit` and
+vision follow-ups. (Previously the empty-text early-return dropped
+such posts entirely.)
+
+### IMG-16 — The prompt announces editable images (coverage: test)
+
+When the answer channel has cached images, the context suffix states
+how many and that `picture_edit=true` edits the newest — the model
+cannot use a capability it does not know about.

+# SPEC-005 — Self-tasking
+
+The sigmoid "boreness" loop becomes a persistent task queue (schema
+v5): generators propose, a scheduler executes — through the normal
+responder path, so every SAF gate, quota and kill-switch applies.
+**Default off** (`tasks-enabled`, kitchen stays quiet unless opted
+in); generators are individually selectable per persona
+(`tasks-generators`). Marked experimental per plan v4.
+
+### TSK-01 — Tasks are persistent queue rows (coverage: test)
+
+A task is a store row: kind, channel, due-at, payload (the prompt the
+responder will run), state (`queued`/`approval`/`done`/`cancelled`/
+`failed`). Enqueued tasks survive restarts.
+
+### TSK-02 — Due tasks run through the responder path (coverage: test)
+
+The scheduler executes due queued tasks as system messages via the
+normal respond flow (inheriting budget, gates, envelope), marks them
+`done`/`failed`, and records the outcome as an observation so memory
+learns what the bot did on its own.
+
+### TSK-03 — Off by default (coverage: test)
+
+Without `tasks-enabled = true` nothing is generated and nothing is
+executed. A restaurant server does not improvise unless asked to.
+
+### TSK-04 — Per-channel daily cap (coverage: test)
+
+At most `tasks-max-per-channel-per-day` (default 2) task executions
+per channel per day, counted in the ledger; further due tasks stay
+queued for the next day.
+
+### TSK-05 — Approval mode (coverage: test)
+
+With `tasks-approval = true`, generated tasks enter state `approval`
+and a staff alert announces them; `!bot task-approve <id>` moves them
+to the queue, `!bot task-cancel <id>` kills them (works for queued
+tasks too). Staged-rollout path from the review.
+
+### TSK-06 — Kill-switches govern execution (coverage: test)
+
+Task execution respects `bot_initiated_allowed()` — `!bot tasks off`,
+pause, quiet mode and quiet hours all stop the scheduler tick.
+
+### TSK-07 — Idle-impulse generator (boreness, demoted) (coverage: test)
+
+When the chat channel has been idle longer than
+`idle-impulse-hours` (default 12), the generator enqueues one
+impulse task with the configured boreness prompt — deterministic
+threshold instead of the old 7-second sigmoid dice loop, bounded by
+TSK-04. The `on_boreness` loop is gone.
+
+### TSK-08 — Follow-up generator proposes from memory (coverage: test)
+
+Periodically (`taskgen-interval-hours`, default 6) the follow-up
+generator asks `memory-model` (strict structured outputs) whether the
+recent episodes/facts warrant one follow-up task (channel, prompt,
+due-in-hours). A null/failed proposal enqueues nothing.

+# SPEC-010 — Human-behavior layer
+
+The bot should feel like a considerate participant, not an instant
+wall of text: it decides *whether* to speak with a cheap classifier
+instead of trusting the main model's self-report, paces its replies,
+splits long answers, and sometimes just reacts. All knobs are
+per-deployment TOML; every feature degrades to the previous behavior
+when its knob is unset (config-off = v3.0.0 semantics).
+
+### BEH-01 — Classifier gates non-direct replies (coverage: test)
+
+With `classifier-model` configured, every non-direct user message
+first passes a cheap classification call (reply yes/no, factual
+yes/no, optional reaction emoji). `reply=false` means no main-model
+call happens at all — this is the boreness suppressor and the
+butting-into-conversations fix (replaces trusting `answer_needed`
+alone; the envelope flag still applies afterwards as second gate).
+
+### BEH-02 — Direct messages bypass the gate (coverage: test)
+
+Mentions and DMs never go through the classifier — someone addressing
+the bot always reaches the main model. Welcome and bot-initiated
+flows do not pass the gate either.
+
+### BEH-03 — Classifier failure fails open (coverage: test)
+
+A failed or unparseable classification (API error, budget refusal)
+falls through to the main model. Availability beats savings; the
+budget gate still protects spend.
+
+### BEH-04 — Reply pacing is typing-proportional (coverage: test)
+
+With `typing-chars-per-second` set (recommended 30), the typing
+indicator is held for `len(part) / cps` seconds per message part,
+capped at `typing-max-seconds` (default 8), before sending. Unset or
+0 = no pacing (v3.0.0 behavior).
+
+### BEH-05 — Factual answers skip the artificial delay (coverage: test)
+
+Messages the classifier tagged `factual` (opening hours, prices,
+addresses) are answered without the BEH-04 delay — utility beats
+theater exactly where users are waiting for information.
+
+### BEH-06 — Long answers are split (coverage: test)
+
+Answers longer than `split-threshold` chars (default 1200) are split
+at paragraph (then sentence) boundaries into at most
+`split-max-parts` (default 3) sequential messages, each under the
+Discord 2000-char limit (which unsplit answers would crash into
+today). Attached images go with the last part.
+
+### BEH-07 — Sometimes a reaction is the reply (coverage: test)
+
+When the classifier returns `reply=false` plus a reaction emoji, the
+bot adds that emoji to the user's message instead of staying fully
+silent. Zero main-model cost, human touch.
+
+### BEH-08 — Quiet hours stop bot-initiated posts (coverage: test)
+
+Within `quiet-hours = "HH:MM-HH:MM"` (host-local, may wrap midnight)
+`bot_initiated_allowed()` is false: no boreness, later no scheduler
+posts. Replies to users stay unaffected — a guest asking at 23:30
+still gets an answer.

+# SPEC-011 — URL reading
+
+A `fetch_url` tool alongside IGDB: the model decides when to read a
+link (user pastes a URL + question; a news item links an article
+Luma wants details on). Web pages are the number-one injection
+vector, so everything fetched is sanitized (SAF-03) and the fetch
+itself is SSRF-guarded — the bot runs on shared hosting. Active only
+when `enable-url-reading = true`.
+
+### URL-01 — fetch_url is offered as a tool (coverage: test)
+
+When `enable-url-reading` is true, the chat call's `tools` list
+includes a `fetch_url` function (url string param) next to any IGDB
+tools. When false, it is absent.
+
+### URL-02 — Only http/https are fetched (coverage: test)
+
+`file:`, `ftp:`, `data:`, `gopher:` and schemeless inputs are
+refused before any network call, with an error result the model can
+relay.
+
+### URL-03 — SSRF guard blocks non-public addresses (coverage: test)
+
+Before fetching, the host is resolved and every resulting IP is
+checked; the fetch is refused when any is private, loopback,
+link-local, or otherwise non-global (RFC1918, 127/8, 169.254/16,
+::1, fc00::/7, etc.). A URL literal that is already such an IP is
+refused without DNS.
+
+### URL-04 — Redirects are re-validated (coverage: test)
+
+Redirects are followed manually; each hop's target passes URL-02 and
+URL-03 again. A public URL that 302-redirects to `localhost` or an
+internal IP is refused at the redirect, not fetched. **HTML
+meta-refresh** redirects (link shorteners, the old getnews stubs) are
+also followed — the target is SSRF-re-guarded and fetched, so the
+reader returns the real article, not the "Redirecting…" stub.
+
+### URL-05 — Fetched text is bounded and sanitized (coverage: test)
+
+Responses are capped at `url-max-bytes` (default 2 MB) with a
+download timeout; HTML is reduced to readable text (script/style
+dropped, tags stripped, whitespace collapsed) and passed through
+`sanitize_external_text` before it reaches the model, truncated to
+`url-max-chars` (default 6000).
+
+### URL-06 — Page images feed the cache (coverage: test)
+
+Up to `url-max-images` (default 2) prominent images (og:image, then
+large `<img>`) are ingested into the ImageCache for the requesting
+channel (SSRF-guarded like the page), so the model can see them and
+`picture_edit` can remix them. Ingestion failures are skipped, never
+fatal to the text result.
+
+### URL-07 — Fetches are metered and capped (coverage: test)
+
+Each fetch increments a per-user daily counter; over
+`url-daily-per-user` (default 20) `fetch_url` refuses with an error
+result. The budget gate (SAF-04) still applies to the surrounding
+model calls.

+`manual` coverage; the in-process alerting is `test`.
+
+### OPS-13 — Consistent DB backups (coverage: test)
+
+`deploy/backup_db.py` writes a gzipped snapshot of `bot.db` using the
+sqlite3 online-backup API — consistent even while the bot writes
+(WAL-safe) — with 0600 permissions. Restoring a snapshot yields a
+readable database with the same rows.
+
+### OPS-14 — Backups are rotated (coverage: test)
+
+The newest `backup-keep` (default 14) snapshots are kept; older ones
+are deleted. Timestamped names sort chronologically so rotation is a
+pure list operation.
+
+### OPS-15 — Backup cron on each host (coverage: manual)
+
+Each host runs `backup_db.py` daily via cron, writing to
+`~/backups/<bot>/` (outside `~/fjerkroa_bot`, so deploys and service
+restarts never touch it). Verified by presence of the cron line and a
+fresh snapshot.
+
+### OPS-16 — Repeated API errors alert staff (coverage: test)
+
+The responder counts consecutive OpenAI request failures; at
+`api-error-alert-threshold` (default 5) in a row it fires one staff
+alert (rate-limited like all staff alerts) so a silently-broken bot
+(cf. the gpt-5.6 tools/reasoning incident) surfaces within minutes

+# SPEC-013 — News digest
+
+Replaces the broken pre-1.0-openai `news_feed.py`. A CLI
+(`python -m fjerkroa_bot.news --config <cfg>`) fetches the
+`news-feeds` and writes a compact digest to the `news` file that
+`AIResponder.message` injects into the `{news}` slot. Feeds are
+external input and operator-configured.
+
+### NEWS-01 — RSS and Atom parse to items (coverage: test)
+
+`parse_feed(bytes, label)` extracts `{title, link, source}` from both
+RSS (`<item>`) and Atom (`<entry>`) documents, tolerates malformed
+XML (returns an empty list, logs), and never raises.
+
+### NEWS-02 — Digest is sanitized and bounded (coverage: test)
+
+`render_digest` caps at `news-max-items`, and every headline passes
+`sanitize_external_text` (SAF-03) — a feed cannot inject `@everyone`
+or control characters into the prompt via a headline.
+
+### NEWS-03 — Feeds are SSRF-guarded and deduped (coverage: test)
+
+`NewsFetcher.collect` skips any feed URL the SSRF guard rejects,
+skips feeds that fail to fetch (one bad feed never sinks the run),
+and drops duplicate headlines across feeds.
+
+## Webhook posting (ggg model)
+
+`--post` mode fetches feeds mapped to channels and posts NEW items to
+the channel's Discord webhook — replacing the py3.8 `getnews.py`
+(dead play3 feed, 35 MB substring-scan state file, HTML-redirect
+cruft). Config: `news-post-feeds = [[url, label, channel], …]`,
+`news-post-webhooks = {channel = url}`, `news-post-state`.
+
+### NEWS-04 — Only unseen items post, then are marked seen (coverage: test)
+
+`NewsPoster.run_post` posts each item whose key (link, else title) is
+not in the seen-set, adds it to the set, and posts to the mapped
+channel's webhook. Re-runs over the same feed post nothing new.
+
+### NEWS-05 — First run seeds without flooding (coverage: test)
+
+With no prior state file (`seed_only`), every current item is marked
+seen but nothing is posted — migrating off getnews.py never dumps a
+backlog into the channels. `news-post-max-per-run` caps steady-state
+posts per run.
+
+### NEWS-06 — Post failures and bad channels are survived (coverage: test)
+
+A feed the SSRF guard rejects, a feed that fails to fetch, an item
+whose channel has no configured webhook, and a webhook POST that
+raises are each logged and skipped — one failure never sinks the
+run, and the seen-set still advances for successfully-processed
+items.
+
+### NEWS-07 — Item summaries are extracted (coverage: test)
+
+`parse_feed` also captures each item's short description — RSS
+`<description>`, Atom `<summary>` or `<content>` — with HTML stripped,
+entities unescaped, and whitespace collapsed, so an item carries what
+it is about, not only a headline. Missing descriptions yield an empty
+summary, never an error.
+
+### NEWS-08 — The digest carries summaries (coverage: test)
+
+`render_digest` appends the sanitized, length-capped
+(`news-summary-chars`, default 200) summary after each headline, so
+the bot's ambient `{news}` context knows the gist of each story, not
+just its title. A zero cap restores the title-only digest.
+
+### NEWS-09 — Fetched news is stored, deduped, and rolled over (coverage: test)
+
+Both the digest run (kroa) and the posting run (ggg) upsert every
+fetched item into a `news` table keyed by link (or title), so the same
+story is stored once. After each run the store is pruned to the newest
+`news-keep` rows (default 400), a rolling window that bounds growth
+while keeping recent history searchable.
+
+### NEWS-10 — get_news is offered as a tool (coverage: test)
+
+When `enable-news-tool` is true and a store is configured, the chat
+call's `tools` list includes a `get_news` function (optional `topic`,
+`source`, `limit`) next to the other tools. Without a store or the
+flag it is absent.
+
+### NEWS-11 — get_news retrieves filtered, sanitized items (coverage: test)
+
+`get_news` returns recent stored items, newest first, optionally
+narrowed by `topic` (every keyword must appear in the title, summary,
+or source label — so `topic: "Nordland"` finds items from that source)
+and/or an exact `source`; `limit` is clamped to 1..30. Each result's title and
+summary are passed through `sanitize_external_text`. The bot can then
+`fetch_url` a returned link for the full article.
+
+### NEWS-12 — get_news is metered per user (coverage: test)
+
+Each `get_news` call increments a per-user daily counter; over
+`news-daily-per-user` (default 30) the tool refuses with an error
+result without touching the store. The budget gate (SAF-04) still
+applies to the surrounding model calls.

+# SPEC-014 — Codex Mechanicus search
+
+Luma is an Adeptus Mechanicus tech-priest; her lore has a real home —
+the priest's own Codex Mechanicus at `binaric.tech` (an Astro/MDX
+archive, five tongues). A `codex_search` function tool lets her consult
+that archive and answer from sourced inscriptions instead of inventing
+lore. The index is public but still untrusted by the time it reaches a
+prompt: the fetch is SSRF-guarded (SPEC-011 shares `guard_url`),
+size-bounded, and every returned field is sanitized (SAF-03). Luma-only;
+active only when `enable-codex = true`.
+
+### CDX-01 — codex_search is offered as a tool (coverage: test)
+
+When `enable-codex` is true, the chat call's `tools` list includes a
+`codex_search` function (`query` string, optional `lang`) next to any
+IGDB / fetch_url tools. When false, it is absent.
+
+### CDX-02 — The index is fetched safely and cached (coverage: test)
+
+The index URL (`codex-index-url`, default
+`https://binaric.tech/search-index.json`) passes the SSRF guard before
+any network call, is read under a byte cap (`codex-max-bytes`, default
+4 MB) with a download timeout, and is cached in memory for
+`codex-cache-ttl` (default 3600 s) so repeated searches do not re-fetch.
+
+### CDX-03 — Ranking weights title over summary over body (coverage: test)
+
+The query is tokenized (stopwords dropped); each inscription is scored
+by term hits weighted title (8) > summary (3) > body (1). Results are
+returned highest-score first, each as `{title, summary, collection,
+url}`, with `url` absolute against the site origin.
+
+### CDX-04 — Language is preferred, with fallback (coverage: test)
+
+Results are filtered to the requested `lang` (en, de, eo, no, uk;
+default en; unknown codes fall back to en) by the language segment in
+each inscription URL. If no inscription in that tongue matches, the
+search falls back to all tongues rather than returning nothing.
+
+### CDX-05 — Results are sanitized and failure is reported (coverage: test)
+
+Each `title` and `summary` is passed through `sanitize_external_text`
+and length-capped (`codex-summary-chars`, default 500). An index that
+cannot be fetched or parsed returns an `{error: ...}` dict the model can
+relay — `search` never raises.
+
+### CDX-06 — Searches are metered per user (coverage: test)
+
+Each `codex_search` increments a per-user daily counter; over
+`codex-daily-per-user` (default 50) the tool refuses with an error
+result without touching the index. The budget gate (SAF-04) still
+applies to the surrounding model calls.
+
+### CDX-07 — Luma cites the codex, not invention (coverage: manual)
+
+With the persona grounding line, when a pilgrim asks Cult Mechanicus
+lore Luma consults `codex_search` and answers from it, offering the
+`binaric.tech` link to read the full inscription rather than
+hallucinating. Verified live on ggg.
