feat: a runtime's own page
`/quantus/runtime/152` — every pallet, call, event, error, storage entry and constant the runtime declares, with the constants' values decoded against their own declared types. Nothing transcribed from a source tree: a source tree says what the chain should be running, metadata says what it ran. The set of runtimes is found rather than waited for. Decoding caches one the moment it needs it, so left alone the cache is "whatever the backfill has walked past" — days on a chain a million blocks deep. `spec_version` only increases, so the boundaries are a sorted sequence and bisection finds each in log₂(height) probes. On Heisenberg that turned up six runtimes and the block each took over at: v126 from 1, v128 from 132, v131 from 342,813, v136 from 669,129, v144 from 812,055, v148 from 977,079 — two more than the four upgrade boundaries this approach was originally verified against. Discovery is its own task, not a poll step. `state_getRuntimeVersion` at an old block makes the node instantiate the runtime WASM from that block's state: ~4 s against Heisenberg's endpoint versus ~0.25 s at the tip, and a hundred of those inside a four-second loop stalls difficulty and the summary broadcast for minutes on every start. Reading Heisenberg's two ends side by side is the case for the page. Between v126 and v148 the chain dropped Referenda, ConvictionVoting, Recovery, Assets and AssetsHolder, added Vesting and Origins, gained `WeightReclaim` and moved `ChargeTransactionPayment` after the two Quantus-specific extensions. Every one breaks a decoder written against the other version and none is visible from a block. `U256`/`U512` now render as one decimal rather than four or eight little-endian limbs, identified by registry path exactly as `AccountId32` already was. Difficulty as `[1189189, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]` describes the bytes correctly and tells a reader nothing. `ChainSummary` gained `spec_version`/`spec_name` so the footer can say what the site is decoding against, and link to it.

ui: only advertise chains we can actually read
The nav listed every chain telemetry names, with the ones we hold no RPC endpoint for as disabled chips saying "no endpoint". The reasoning was that they are part of the network and hiding them misrepresents its shape. In practice it put five dead chips above the standings on every page — four of which have never had anything behind them — and made the one live chain the smallest thing in the row. Nothing is blocked. `/:chain/...` still resolves for any chain the backend knows, `/v1/chains` still reports every one of them with its `tracking`, and promoting one is still a single `[[chains]]` entry. This is only about what the page offers unprompted. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Jp6a8EDar9ueEhAxzep4V5 |

feat: account pages, built on the event index
`/quantus/account/qzp2AxZw…` answers the question the official explorer answers badly: what an address has actually been paid, every reward, back as far as the index has read. Everything comes from this observer's own decoding — no subsquid, no external indexer, nothing that stops working when the node prunes the state behind it. There is no case per event type anywhere in this. `chain_event` gained an `accounts` column filled by the decoder itself, which knows which values are `AccountId32` by registry path — the same knowledge that keeps it from rendering a block hash as an address — so "everything involving this account" is one containment query that already covers pallets nobody has written yet. The frontend labels what it recognises and renders anything else as its own key and value, so a new event type shows up as itself rather than not at all. Events also carry the block's own timestamp now. `block.authored_at` holds the same thing but only for blocks this process was running for, and a payment history that renders "height 412" with no date because the observer was not alive in March is not a history. The preimage and the address are two ends of one identity and each page now links to the other. Address to preimage is a lookup among preimages seen, not a calculation: the derivation runs one way. Verified against mainnet: 13,384 reward events indexed from genesis to the tip, quanpool's page reconciling to 3,784.98 QTC over 12,346 blocks, and transfers rendering their counterparties as linked addresses without a line of code that knows what a transfer is.

ui: real URLs for every view
The hash router was the right size for a chain and a window. It stopped being once a block, a miner and — shortly — an account each became a page worth sending someone: a fragment never reaches a server, so those URLs cannot carry a title, be crawled, or be resolved by anything but the page itself. So paths, via react-router, which was already a dependency and unused. Both vhosts already answer any path with `index.html`, so nothing outside the client changed. `lib/routes` holds the grammar in one place and `fromLegacyHash` rewrites the old form on load, so every `#/…` link already published still lands where it meant to. Segments are named — `/quantus/block/13160`, not `/quantus/13160` — rather than told apart by shape. Shape works until two kinds of thing can look alike, and an SS58 address is arbitrary base58 with no rule keeping it clear of a window name forever. Six characters buys the whole class of problem away before accounts arrive. Everything navigable is an anchor now, chain chips and the window control included, which is what "real URLs" has to mean in practice: middle-click opens another chain's 24h view in a tab, and the back button walks the panels. The miner panel had no address at all before this — opening one changed the page and not the URL.

feat(ui): link the source repository from the footer
The repository is public now. The site's claim is that every miner is derived from public block headers with no registration and no opt-in; the code doing the deriving being readable is the other half of that, so it belongs beside the caveats rather than nowhere. Its own line under them, not a fourth item in the `space-between` flow, which would strand a short line against a long one — and it is a different kind of statement from the three above: where to go and check the numbers, not a caveat about them. Opens in its own tab so the WebSocket behind the page keeps its connection.

feat: identify miners by the address they are paid at, not the preimage
A reward preimage is exact and unrecognisable — no miner knows theirs by sight. The address is the string they configured and the one their balance shows against, and the two are related by a derivation the chain performs anyway: `pallets/mining-rewards` pays `qp_wormhole::derive_wormhole_address`, which is `qp_poseidon_core::rehash_to_bytes`. Running the same function reproduces the address exactly, with no RPC and no lookup table. The derivation takes the preimage and nothing else — no genesis, no chain parameters — so one preimage is one account on every Quantus chain. The unit test pins it against a real pair (this observer's own node and the address it was paid at), so a dependency upgrade that changed the derivation fails the build rather than quietly relabelling every miner on the site. Unnamed miners now render as their address. The miner panel shows all three identifiers, because they answer different questions: the node name is an inference and may be absent, the address is what the miner recognises, and the preimage is what the header actually carries and the only one the chain asserts. SS58 is written out rather than pulled from `sp-core`, which would bring a substrate runtime's worth of dependencies to format 36 bytes — the same trade the readme records for declining subxt. Base58 is hand-rolled because it is long division and nothing else; blake2 is not, because checksums are not worth hand-rolling. Both are covered by the address test vector. `RecentBlock` gains the attribution source: the ticker cannot tell a node name from an address by looking, since `quanpool-payout-mainnet` and `quantus-radar` both begin with the letter Quantus addresses do. Two tests that asserted the old display policy now assert the new one. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Jp6a8EDar9ueEhAxzep4V5 |

feat(attribution): offer a best-effort name, and say how thin the evidence is
A name now appears as soon as one node leads the vote, rather than waiting for three. On a chain that resolves a first reporter for about one block in seven, the old bar left almost every miner permanently anonymous — and since a later block can overturn a mapping, a guess that corrects itself is more useful than a blank that never fills in. What is refused is a dead heat. Choosing between two equally-voted nodes would be a coin toss wearing a telemetry badge, which is a different thing from a thin but real lead. The honesty moves to the presentation instead of being dropped. A percentage alone cannot separate "100% of 1" from "86% of 7", so `Attribution` and `LeaderboardRow` now carry the number of votes behind the name. The leaderboard marks a mapping resting on a single block or a narrow lead with `node?` and a dashed chip, and the tooltip states both figures and that a later block can correct it. Dashed rather than a second colour: the accent hue is reserved for identity and alarm, and this is neither — the same claim held more loosely. The footer now says node names are inferred from which node reported a block to telemetry first, never something the miner asserted, and that the reward preimage beside them is the only identity the chain itself vouches for. `a_single_lucky_vote_still_names_nobody` asserted the old policy and is replaced by `one_vote_names_but_says_it_is_only_one`, which pins the new contract: it names, and it reports `votes == 1` so the UI can mark it. A new `a_dead_heat_names_nobody` keeps the case that is still refused. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Jp6a8EDar9ueEhAxzep4V5 |

feat: block explorer routes, addressed by hash
`#/:chain/:height` opens a block and then rewrites the address to
`#/:chain/:hash`. The redirect is the point, not tidiness: `block` is keyed on
(chain, height) and a reorg overwrites, so a height names a *position* and a
link to one comes to mean a different block the moment the chain forks there. A
hash names one block for good — including after it has lost, which is the only
way an orphan is linkable at all.
`GET /v1/chains/{chain}/blocks/{ref}` takes either spelling; a decimal number
and 32 bytes of hex cannot be confused, so a caller holding a number is not made
to guess which one this API wanted. The same reasoning puts block refs in the
second path segment beside the window: no window name is all digits or 0x plus
64 hex characters.
The answer is assembled from two sources because neither is sufficient, and
they fail at different times:
- The node holds the block and forgets it. Non-canonical bodies go once finality
passes them (blocks-pruning defaults to archive-canonical, and Planck finalises
~100 blocks back), and difficulty is a state read behind a 256-block default.
- The observer holds what the node never had — when the block was seen, whether
that sighting was at the tip — and what it has since forgotten: the difficulty
read while the state behind it still existed.
So resolution degrades in a stated order rather than failing. Node first; a
header it cannot serve falls back to `block_displacement`, which is what makes
an orphan describable at all; a node that is away falls back to the recorded
row. `from_node` tells the reader which they are looking at, and every value
neither source has is spelled out in words — "the body is pruned", "this
observer never saw this block" — because a blank on a block page reads as zero.
Verified against the live chain: a tip block carries difficulty, one extrinsic,
a 1.9 s gap and 473 ms of propagation; height 1000000 keeps its body and loses
difficulty to state pruning; genesis has no author digest and does not panic; a
seeded displacement serves as an orphan with the winner linked, and the winner
lists it in `also_seen`.

feat: sparkline history under the headline tiles
Adds `GET /v1/chains/{chain}/series` and a sparkline under network hashrate,
difficulty, block time and miners. Height gets none — it only goes up, and a
straight diagonal reports nothing.
The chart is bucketed by height, not by time: every point is the same number of
blocks, so every point carries equal statistical weight and a stretch nobody
recorded stays the same width on the axis as one that was. A bucket is the
window over fifty, which makes a full window exactly fifty buckets — that is
what lets the rolling miner count at the last point be the same number printed
in the tile above it, rather than a per-bucket count that would sit well below
it. Buckets are anchored to absolute height for the same reason `miner_series`
bins from the epoch: anchored to the tip instead, every boundary slides by one
on every block and the chart shifts under a reader watching it.
Interval comes from `authored_at`, never `observed_at`. A gap fill writes a
whole batch of observation times within the same second, so deltas taken from
it read as a chain producing hundreds of blocks a second — the trap
`RollingWindow`'s `at_tip` flag exists to avoid, which until now lived only in
memory. It is a column as of `0002`, so the distinction survives a restart and
`observed_at` is interpretable at all.
Each point's interval is a three-bucket moving average. The mean of one
bucket's gaps still carries real Poisson error — 72 blocks of a 15 s interval
lands at ±1.8 s — and across fifty points that draws a chain that appears to
change size every few minutes and does not.
Fixes a wrong number found on the way in: `pallet_qpow` retargets in
`on_finalize`, so `QPoWApi_get_difficulty` at the latest state is the
difficulty for the *next* block, not the one just seen. Every stored difficulty
was off by one block — invisible, because a gradual retarget still looks
plausible. It is now asked at `header.parent_hash`, the same call the miner
made when it built the block. A node that has pruned that state gets `None`
rather than the current value: substituting it is exactly how a gap fill would
stamp today's difficulty across a stretch of old heights. The CLI backfill had
the same bug at greater scale, copying one reading across an entire range.
Unknowns are drawn as breaks in the line, never interpolated: an outage, a
difficulty a pruned node cannot supply, a point without a full window of
authors behind it. A chart that guesses across what was never recorded is the
same class of lie as a hashrate divided by a sync speed, and just as hard to
catch afterwards.
Read against the dataviz skill first, per CLAUDE.md. Single series, one hue;
emphasis on the newest point is `--data-bright`, a lighter step of the same
bronze, because the usual "current period in the accent" convention is the one
change that would break this palette. The hover readout borrows each tile's
note line — five floating tooltips across a row of 180px tiles is a pile, not a
hover layer — and the same readout is on keyboard focus and in the aria-label,
since the line does not start at zero and its height is not a quantity anyone
should be estimating.

feat(chains): discover every Quantus chain from telemetry; track the ones we can reach
The chain list is no longer config. substrate-telemetry announces every chain it knows — with live node counts — before and independent of any subscription, so one feed connection that never subscribes is a complete, self-maintaining index. A chain that launches tomorrow appears in the nav on its own. Config now contributes only RPC endpoints. Authorship lives in the `pow_` digest of a block *header*, and telemetry publishes hashes and heights but never headers — so a chain with no endpoint is listed with its node count and is not navigable, and the nav says why rather than offering an empty board. The two sets join on genesis hash, never on name. Two chains are tracked in full: Planck (our own node on bob) and Heisenberg (a1-heisenberg.quantus.cat, found via Quantus-Network/quantus-apps). Both decode identically — same digest shape, same QPoW runtime API — which is the proof that adding a chain is one [[chains]] entry and no new code. Quantus Staging Mainnet and Quantus Dirac Testnet are listed and disabled: no endpoint exists under the a1-/a2- pattern and none resolves under any plausible name. Nav is ordered by node count descending, ties broken on id so it cannot reshuffle between refreshes. Telemetry now also yields chain-wide best height, best finalized height, average block time and the client-version histogram (feed codes 1, 2, 12 and 22). Infra moves to a single site: oolon fronts blackbeard.observer, reverse-proxying cross-site over the mesh to the API beside the node on bob. That hop is the one the loopback health probe cannot see, so the deploy now checks it explicitly — a firewalld service scoped to bob's own /16 would leave a live site with a dead /v1 and nothing would fail. infra-setup gains `dns` and `cert` roles that run on oolon with the credential already there: the Cloudflare token is never copied off the proxy, and it refuses to repoint an apex record that already exists.

feat: blackbeard.observer — live Quantus mining leaderboard
Cargo workspace plus a Vite frontend, following ~/git/architecture/generic.md. Every block header carries its author's wormhole reward preimage in a `pow_` PreRuntime digest, so authorship for the whole network is derivable from headers alone — no indexer, no registration, no way for a miner to be left out. That decoding, the hashrate maths and the telemetry name attribution live in blackbeard-core with no I/O at all, so the parts that are easy to get subtly wrong are exercised by unit tests rather than only against a live chain. The browser holds one WebSocket: snapshot on subscribe, deltas thereafter. The head stream is itself a push (chain_subscribeNewHeads), so a block reaches the page the moment the node imports it. Messages are serialised once per broadcast, and leaderboards are recomputed only for windows a socket is actually watching. No RxJS — useSyncExternalStore is React's own contract for this. Verified against the live Planck testnet: 12/12 headers decoded, telemetry names attributed (quanpool-planck, baba-gorchitsa, …), warm start restoring 84 blocks and 5 held names across a restart. Three findings worth recording, all in CLAUDE.md: - substrate-telemetry sends its JSON in *binary* frames. A text-only client connects, subscribes, reports healthy and receives nothing at all — and a Python probe hides it, because json.loads accepts bytes. - Difficulty is a little-endian U512; decoding it big-endian gives a number wrong by ~10^150 that still renders fine. - Planck's real block interval is ~13-15s against a 6s target with enormous variance, so a measured interval needs 20 tip samples before it is publishable. Deploy assets, the Gitea Actions workflow and script/infra-setup.sh are included; port 25864 is registered in architecture/port-allocations.md.
