Replace docker/metadata GH Action with a docker-publish.sh driven workflow (supports auto-versioning, extra tags, multi-arch builds and optional builder). Update docs and READMEs to use the updater and new publish flow. Add server-side swarm/node blocklist support and admin nodes API. Improve auth endpoints (me, logout, switch, session accounts) and support account switching. Extend bots API to support custom LLM provider and optional endpoint. Enforce node blocklist on chat send/receive, refactor link preview handling into dedicated preview modules, and enhance notifications and posts like/repost handlers to accept both signed actions and regular auth flows. Misc: remove admin update UI details, add helper libs (media previews, node-blocklist, reposts, notifications, etc.), and minor housekeeping (pyc, workflow tweaks).
Introduce a one‑line Docker installer and environment examples, add CI and docker validation workflows, and update docs and tests.
Key changes:
- Add docker/install.sh installer that bootstraps /opt/synapsis, downloads compose files, optionally installs Docker, and generates secrets.
- Add top-level .env.example and docker/.env.example entries for shared storage and local development.
- Add GitHub Actions CI (ci.yml) with type checks, targeted vitest runs, build and docker-compose validation.
- Update existing docker workflow to set up QEMU and build multi‑arch images (amd64, arm64).
- Update README and docker/README to use the installer, point to the new repo, adjust local setup instructions, and note shared S3 env vars.
- Update docker-compose comments and include shared S3 env variables and defaults.
- Update .gitignore to ignore site-work mirrors.
- Tests: expand supported bot source types (add brave_news, youtube), increase POST_MAX_LENGTH from 400 to 600, add minimal user handle in mention handler tests, and add mocks & test adjustments in scheduler tests to keep them unit-scoped.
These changes simplify installation, add CI coverage (including Docker config validation), enable multi‑arch builds, and align tests with expanded bot source/validation behavior.
- Remove ActivityPub infrastructure (webfinger, nodeinfo, inbox, activities, signatures)
- Implement native peer-to-peer Swarm network with gossip protocol
- Replace federated timeline with Swarm timeline aggregating posts from all nodes
- Migrate direct messaging to end-to-end encrypted Swarm Chat system
- Update user interactions (follow, like, repost) to use Swarm protocol
- Add cryptographic key management for DID-based identity system
- Remove server-bound identity model in favor of portable DID identities
- Update documentation to reflect Swarm architecture and capabilities
- Add debug utilities and chat testing tools for Swarm network
- Refactor database schema to support distributed user directory
- Update bot framework to work with Swarm network interactions
- Simplify API routes to use Swarm protocol instead of ActivityPub
- This transition enables true peer-to-peer communication, instant interactions, and encrypted messaging while maintaining sovereign identity through DIDs
