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
- Implement live post fetching from followed remote users with parallel requests and timeouts
- Add remote-sync background task to periodically cache posts from followed remote users
- Optimize swarm node detection and prioritize swarm API over ActivityPub for faster responses
- Add timeout wrapper (5s per node) to prevent slow remote nodes from blocking timeline requests
- Enhance scheduler to support background sync tasks with configurable intervals
- Transform remote posts to match local format with proper media and author metadata
- Improve error handling and logging for remote user post fetching
- Replace cached-only approach with hybrid live/cached strategy for fresher content
- Remove scheduled posting logic and consolidate all bot posting into autonomous module
- Simplify cron endpoint to only call processAllAutonomousBots with cleaner response format
- Add background post caching for swarm follow operations via cacheSwarmUserPosts
- Update background scheduler to remove scheduled posting references and streamline logging
- Improve autonomous module documentation to clarify schedule-based posting with optional sources
- Enhance error tracking and reporting across bot task execution
- Reduce code duplication by eliminating separate scheduled/autonomous processing paths
