- /rns/<hash>/<path> proxies pages over RNS with link rewriting
- fetch_remote_page() in rns_client.py for generic RNS page fetching
- mesh_sites table for persisting saved hashes
- standalone site_server.py with its own RNS identity
- tinyweb-site/index.html: SPA with RSS-aware nav (/rns/<hash>/ prefix)
- unified /add form: single input accepts URL or 32-char RNS hash
- RNS add indexes into pages table (fetch root page, extract title/desc)
- rns:<hash> URLs displayed in browse/search, linked to /rns/<hash>/
- expand RNS whitelist: allow GET /, /about, /pages, /tags, /share
- Remove FORUM_CSS_DEFAULT/KODAMA2 and _forum_css() from forum handlers
- Add FORUM_CSS constant to templates.py with layout-only forum CSS
- Inject forum CSS into any template's <head> via wrap_page()
- Add forum layout styles to kodama2.html theme
- Update database custom template
174 tests covering URL normalization, FTS5 query sanitization, SSRF/CSRF
guards, sharing-mode logic, DB schema and upsert paths, handler
end-to-end flows, and gateway body-size / mesh-whitelist guards. Each
recent bug-fix commit (6ffd38d, 1bc695f, 8dffd8c) has an explicit
regression test in test_regressions.py. One xfail documents a minor
latent bug in clean_url where port 80 is not stripped from upgraded
https URLs.
- Bulk delete now routes through a server-rendered confirmation page
listing the selected titles; a `confirmed=1` form field is required
before pages are actually deleted. Mirrors the single-delete flow.
- Reset-template button gains a JS confirm() so stray clicks don't wipe
the custom template.
- Homepage shows a short, neutral empty-state block when the index has
zero pages and no query — just names what tinyweb is and links to
/add, /style, and /subscriptions as equal options.
- /about gains a "your data" section explaining what lives in
~/.tinyweb/ (identity file, index.db), what losing each costs, and
how /export differs from a full backup.
- README gains a "Backups" subsection mirroring the /about copy.
Security:
- Bind HTTP gateway to 127.0.0.1 by default; add --bind for LAN opt-in
- Restrict Reticulum mesh surface to GET /api/sites only (CSRF cannot
authenticate mesh callers, so gate by whitelist)
- Cap request body size at 16 MiB to prevent memory DoS
- Redact /bookmark query strings from request logs so the bookmark token
and URLs do not land in stdout / docker / journal logs
- Tighten FTS5 sanitizer: strip colon, drop AND/OR/NOT/NEAR operator words
- Expand .dockerignore; document trust model in README
Features:
- Add sharing mode toggle (share everything except private vs share only
public-tagged) with /share/preview so users can see what subscribers
would receive before enabling sharing
Bugs:
- handle_export() crashed on every call (missing query kwarg)
- Dead float16 decompression branch in embeddings.py silently corrupted
the HNSW index when compress_embeddings was on
- GATEWAY_PORT staleness: --port and find_available_port had no effect
on the actual bind
- semantic_search default mismatched between db.py ("1") and the rest of
the app ("0"), causing embeddings to be generated when the UI said off
- Connection pool returned connections with uncommitted transactions to
the next consumer
- Gateway POST body decode 502'd on non-UTF-8 input
- ensure_rns_config clobbered user-edited ~/.reticulum/config; now only
rewrites files it authored (sentinel-tagged)
- Progressive retry in rns_client.py: fast timeout (15s) then slow (60s+)
for LoRa/multi-hop links, with automatic fallback
- Background sync threads so subscriptions page returns immediately
with syncing/error status indicators per subscription
- LoRa RNode configuration in settings page with serial port and
expandable advanced radio settings (frequency, bandwidth, etc.)
- Internet transport now toggleable alongside LoRa — users can
enable one, the other, or both
- Reticulum config auto-generated from settings on startup
- Bulk delete and retag from browse page with checkboxes
- Select all / deselect all toggle
- Delete confirmation shows count of selected pages
- Auto-cleanup orphaned tags on delete, edit, and bulk actions
- Replace Google Fonts with system font stacks across all themes
- Add Referrer-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, CSP headers
- Add rel="noreferrer noopener" on all outbound links
- Add no-referrer and dns-prefetch-control meta tags to all themes
- Clean tracking params on outbound links from trusted/remote sources
- Remove Google domains from CSP whitelists
- Add pyinstaller.spec and GitHub/Forgejo CI workflows for cross-platform builds
- Add AGPLv3 license
- Move data storage to ~/.tinyweb/
- Add --version and --port CLI flags
- Add transport node selection in /style (smart regeneration preserves Reticulum config)
- Add discover more nodes link to rmap.world
- Add semantic_search setting to toggle AI-powered search on/off
- Skip embedding generation, hybrid search, and model preloading when disabled
- Use site owner's meta description as snippet instead of heuristic extraction
- Remove _generate_summary() and snippet() - no more generated snippets
- Show reranker/reindex controls grayed out when semantic search is off
- AI dependencies (onnxruntime, hnswlib, etc.) are now fully optional
- Case-insensitive meta description extraction (fixes sites like Lemmy
with capitalized "Description" meta name)
- Strip aside and noscript tags for cleaner body text
- Extract paragraph text separately for better sentence quality
- Prefer sentences mentioning the site name, then first quality
paragraph, then title as fallback
- Skip meta descriptions under 20 chars (e.g. just "Lemmy")
- Remove embedding/centroid dependency from summary generation
Lemmy and other JS-heavy sites include noscript fallback text like
"Javascript is disabled" that pollutes the stored body text and
generated snippets/summaries.
Previously reindex skipped pages that already had chunks, leaving stale
embeddings in place. It also overwrote good meta description summaries
with auto-generated ones. Now it clears all chunks first so everything
is re-embedded, and only generates summaries for pages missing one.
Implements a three-stage search pipeline:
1. BM25 keyword search via FTS5 with column weights
2. Semantic search via Snowflake arctic-embed-s bi-encoder + HNSW index
3. Optional cross-encoder reranking (on by default, toggleable in settings)
Top 20 results are reranked for precision, next 10 appended from RRF
for coverage, giving 30 total results across 3 pages.
- New embeddings.py with ONNX Runtime inference, text chunking, HNSW
index management, RRF fusion, and cross-encoder reranking
- Meta description extraction for authentic page snippets with centroid
extractive fallback
- Stopword filtering in FTS5 queries to avoid overly strict matching
- /reindex page for batch embedding of existing pages
- Semantic embedding of remote pages during subscription sync
- ~125MB dependency footprint (onnxruntime, tokenizers, hnswlib, numpy)
- Models: 34MB bi-encoder + 22MB cross-encoder (downloaded on first use)
Browser textarea submissions convert \n to \r\n, causing the template
comparison against DEFAULT_TEMPLATE to always fail. This saved the bare
skeleton as a custom template, overriding the default navbar.
With share_instance = Yes, announces weren't being sent over TCP
in Docker environments. Setting it to No ensures each TinyWeb
instance manages its own Reticulum interfaces directly.
New TinyWeb instances now auto-connect to rnode.bre.land:4242
so users get internet mesh connectivity out of the box without any
manual Reticulum configuration. Env var overrides still supported.
Replaces static CMD with an entrypoint that generates RNS config from
environment variables (RNS_TCP_HOST/PORT), enabling TCP transport for
environments without LAN auto-discovery (e.g. Docker on macOS).
