`/v1/chains/{chain}/ref/series?counter=nep141:…` buckets the latest pool
swaps exactly as `/intents/series` buckets intents trades, through one shared
`price_series`, and `ref-dcl` draws it with the same plot and figures table
(`SeriesBody`, pulled out of `PriceChart`). It is a separate chart, never a
second line on the intents one: a pool swap is usually a solver restocking
after an intents fill, and one line over both would draw one demand twice.

`RefPool::counter_token` was documented as a contract but carries the
`nep141:` prefix; the doc now says so — the first cut of the chart prefixed
it again and drew nothing.

Tracking shard 8 (option B), the other half left open on #37, is item 5 of
#39 and waits for the new NEAR host.

Closes #37

On 2026-10-06 the team bridged 150,000 QTC to NEAR and put almost all of it in
a Ref Finance DCL pool, not into solver balances, so the market page saw none
of it. The pool contract (dclv2.ref-labs.near) is on shard 8 and our node
tracks only intents.near's shard 7, so its swap events are never in anything
the scan reads.

What the scan does see is the relay transaction: the Verifier's outcome logs
an ft_withdraw from the solver to the pool. Those are queued (ref_pending,
migration 0012, persisted because the process restarts) and fetched whole
from the public endpoint 20 blocks later, once the pool's receipt has run;
its dcl.ref swaps are recorded with the solver as trader, since the pool
itself records intents.near. Swaps made by calling the pool directly are
missed — and the pool's own cumulative counters say by how much, so the page
reports coverage instead of a disclaimer: today 99.75% of QTC bought out and
100% of QTC sold in, the gap one 0.000498 QTC buy.

Pool state comes from view calls once a minute: price at the current point,
holdings, whitelist, counters, and the liquidity ladder from
blackbeard_core::dcl — discrete sums over points, with the current point split
exactly by liquidity_x; tested against the pool's own totals (QTC to 0.01, and
USDC short by exactly the LP fees total_x also holds). Pools are found by
paging list_pools.

It is its own market, /:chain/market/ref-dcl, never summed with NEAR Intents
trades: a user's buy is a solver fill there and, after it, the solver's
restock here. The pools' whitelists join the inventory poll, which now finds
solver-ref-2.near holding 0.288 QTC. Migration 0013 pulls QTC's scan back to
NEAR 218,700,000, before the pool, so the swaps production already passed are
found on the re-read.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5.5 d6654ac4b0 feat(api): flag QTC on NEAR that exceeds what exists outside the vesting pot

deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m35s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 7s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 20s
qtc.omft.near is minted only against QTC locked on Quantus by the bridge, so
its supply can never legitimately exceed issuance outside the vesting pot —
221,838 QTC today. The listing poll now reads that ceiling every five minutes
through one helper, issuance_outside_pot, using the same storage reads and the
same subtraction the network page uses, rescales it to the NEAR token's
decimals (rounding down, so the check can only get stricter), and compares it
with ft_total_supply. A breach is a logged warning and, on the market page, a
sentence before any figure: unbacked, or one of the two misread. Either read
failing gives no verdict rather than a false all-clear.

The panel also shows the ceiling itself as "most there could be". Checked live:
QTC at 0 against 221,837.97 with no breach, and the breach path forced by
pointing the dev config at wNEAR (35.4M on NEAR), which logged and rendered the
warning as intended.

In place before QTC's announced NEAR Intents launch on 2026-10-05.

Closes #36

grenadeandClaude Opus 5.5 a13a6ef1a5 fix(api): pace the intents backfill only for someone else's endpoint
ci / gate (push) Successful in 4m22s
deploy / validate (push) Skipped
deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m22s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 18s
The one-second pause between backfill blocks was set when every read went to
FastNEAR's free RPC or its archive. Since #27 was enabled the live endpoint is
our own node and start_height the oldest block it holds, so the whole backfill
was served by a host we run and the pause only stretched it to about six
hours — stalling the tip side for each descending batch, so live pushes were
missed meanwhile.

The pause now follows who serves the read: heights at or above the live
endpoint's earliest block go to rpc_urls, older ones to the archive, and only
a set that is not ours is paced. Ours is decided from the URL host — a
`.internal` name, localhost, or a loopback, private, link-local or unique-local
address — and a set counts as ours only when every endpoint in it is, since
failover can reach any of them.

Measured against near.internal: the backfill walked about 15,000 blocks in
60 s (≈250/s, up from 1/s) while the top end kept pace with the tip.

Closes #35

grenadeandClaude Opus 5.5 2d80325c3b feat(api): solver inventory per side of each pair, read from our node
ci / gate (push) Failing after 1m34s
NEAR Intents has no order book: solvers quote privately per request and
nothing on chain carries a price level. What is on chain is the inventory
they fill from, inside intents.near — and intents.near is on the shard our
node tracks, so mt_batch_balance_of is answered locally in about 40 ms.

The scan now records every solver it sees filling any pair — a named account
with no referral, which the #30 survey found to be solvers without exception
— in intents_solver (migration 0011), so the list survives restarts and is
there before QTC has a trade of its own. Once a minute the observer asks
intents.near what each holds of the asset and every counter traded against
it, and serves it at /intents/inventory: the asset as the side that serves
buyers, each counter as the side that serves sellers, with how many solvers
hold it and the largest holder.

The market page shows it as a table, the asset and the ten counters most
solvers hold with the rest folded, under a note that says what it is not: no
price levels, shared across pairs so the rows do not add up, and not a
ceiling. Checked live against our node with wNEAR configured: 11 solvers,
74 tokens read in one pass. Before QTC is listed the panel's job is its one
row — when solvers start stocking QTC, it shows here before the first trade.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5.5 fb7148cc98 feat(ui): a price chart on the market page, and its placeholder
ci / gate (push) Successful in 4m20s
deploy / validate (push) Skipped
deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m32s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 18s
The asset's price in one counter token over its latest trades, read against
the dataviz skill before it was drawn. One series in the data hue and no
legend: a token trades against dozens of counters, in units no axis could
share, so the counter is a control above the chart rather than a hue per
line. Buckets come from blackbeard_core::intents::bucket_prices over
/intents/series — volume-weighted, with low and high, empty buckets left out
so the line breaks where nothing traded instead of drawing a price nobody
paid. The y-axis is fitted to the prices; the window is a count of trades, so
the time axis covers only what they span. A table view sits under it.

Until anything has traded the frame keeps the chart's height — nothing moves
when the first trade lands — with a baseline and the reason, and no axes,
since a scale over no data is a range nobody measured. For QTC today that
reads "no QTC is bridged to NEAR yet, so none can have traded there".

Rendering it caught three things the build did not. The line never drew: the
API reported the bucket width truncated to whole seconds, so no two buckets
looked adjacent — widths are now whole seconds by construction. The chart
painted at its 720px fallback until a ResizeObserver reported, centred in a
full-width panel; it is measured before first paint now. And on the market
page the seventy-row counter table pushed the chart below the fold; it folds.

Checked against real wNEAR trades and the QTC placeholder, light and dark.

The market index lists the venues a chain's token is followed on, asked of a
new /v1/chains/{chain}/markets so a chain followed nowhere says so and a
second venue needs no frontend change. The near-intents page carries the
price figures and listing evidence, swaps as they settle (from the
IntentsSwap push), and the settled history, paged newest first through
/intents/swaps?order=newest&before=… — the existing `after` stays for readers
going forward, and mixing the two directions is a 400.

`market` is a subject in lib/routes.ts like `node`: in parse, href and
isStandings together. `markets` parses too and is rewritten to the singular
every other kind uses.

Rendered against 964 real wNEAR trades before it shipped, which is what
showed the panel did not scale: seventy counter tokens became seventy tiles,
NFT swaps sat in the grid as prices with no number, and "wNEAR in USDC"
appeared six times for six different bridged tokens. Now only counters with
decimals are prices, most traded first — four tiles on the network page,
eight and a table of the rest on the market page — NFT and multi-token swaps
are a count, and a bridged token is labelled by its origin (`USDC · base`),
the contract it is, not the symbol it chose.

NEAR does not produce a block at every height, and 218,363,444 was one it
skipped. The backfill asked for its shard layout at the batch's first height,
got UNKNOWN_BLOCK from every endpoint, and asked the same question every
15 s from then on: production's indexed_from stopped at 218,363,445. The tip
side runs the same code and would have frozen the first time a batch began on
a skip. The layout now comes from the first height in the batch that exists.

The second half of it: neard sends JSON-RPC errors with HTTP 422 where
FastNEAR's proxy sent them with 200, and call_one checked the status before
reading the body, so the node's own "no such block" arrived as a transport
failure. chunk() could not see a skip as a skip, deep() never asked the
archive, and on a chain with several endpoints a node's valid answer would
have been failed over. parse_response reads the body whatever the status: a
JSON-RPC error is the node answering; a non-success status without one is the
host not answering, as before.

Checked against near.internal with the scan seeded to begin a backfill batch
on the skipped height: it walked past it with no warnings.

A 3,000-block survey of intents.near from our own node (350 outcomes, 1,026
legs) showed the referral leg is the user — per-quote implicit accounts, none
on a solver — and that its own diff mirrors the rest of the outcome to within
the protocol fee in all 576 amounts checked. So each taker leg is now its own
trade, priced from what that user gave and got.

It also showed the pooling rule counted solver routing as trading: in 45% of
outcomes with a taker the solvers traded through a pair no taker touched,
usually USDT on Ethereum, and each such leg on the tracked asset became a
phantom trade against a token the user never saw. Two takers on one pair —
an account round-tripping wNEAR, in the case captured — were merged into one
trade with a nonsense price. Now an outcome with any taker yields only the
takers' trades; only an outcome with no referral at all (solvers trading with
each other) is pooled, as `kind: unattributed`, with no side.

`kind` is stored (migration 0010, no re-scan: production held no QTC rows) and
on the wire, and the panel says how many of a figure's trades were users'.
Tests run on the three captured outcomes. Checked live against near.internal
with wNEAR: 18 trades from 18 outcomes, every taker an implicit account, and
no counter that was only a hop.

218,346,736 — a sound floor because qtc.omft.near held no supply at
218,369,028, so nothing can have traded before it, and it keeps the whole
backfill on our node rather than on a throttled archive.

The gate test that kept this off becomes a parse test that expects it on.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5.5 cf227bf421 fix(data): read tx outcomes at INCLUDED_FINAL, not EXECUTED
Our NEAR node tracks only intents.near's shard. Against a swap that withdrew
through omni.bridge.near, EXECUTED and EXECUTED_OPTIMISTIC both waited for the
receipts on shards the node never sees and timed out with a 408 after ten
seconds — the scan would have retried that block forever, stalling on exactly
the trades it exists to read. INCLUDED_FINAL answered in 10 ms with all five
token_diff events and the intents_executed event, matching FastNEAR's full
view, because intents.near's first receipt executes in the inclusion block.

Verified end to end against https://near.internal with wNEAR configured: the
scan followed the tip with no errors, recorded trades and pushed one live.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5.5 100d508588 feat(ws): push each swap as it settles on NEAR Intents
`ServerMessage::IntentsSwap` carries the trade exactly as /intents/swaps
returns it — one conversion, `intents::to_swap`, serves both, so the route
and the push cannot describe the same trade differently.

Only trades read within LIVE_WITHIN_BLOCKS (~a minute) of NEAR's final tip
are pushed. The backfill never broadcasts, and the threshold is what keeps an
upward catch-up after a restart from announcing an hour of history as news —
the confusion the wormhole pulse shipped once already.

The market panel re-reads its figures on each push rather than adjusting a
copy: a VWAP over the latest N trades drops its oldest as it gains one.

Verified by replaying the trade at NEAR 218,261,895 with the threshold opened
locally and catching the frame on /v1/ws.

Shows the token's price on NEAR Intents per counter token, volume-weighted
over its latest trades with the trade count beside every figure, and in that
token rather than in dollars. Before anything has settled it shows the
evidence instead: supply bridged to NEAR, what intents.near holds, whether
1Click lists it, and zero swaps over the NEAR blocks read — so a rate quoted
elsewhere has something true to stand against.

Renders nothing when the chain answers `no_intents`, which it does while the
integration is off. The asset is labelled by its own ft_metadata symbol,
returned as `asset_symbol`, rather than assumed to be the chain's token:
checked by rendering it with ZEC configured, where the first cut called
143,730 ZEC "QTC".

grenadeandClaude Opus 5.5 8128201ad9 feat(api): index swaps settled by NEAR Intents, off by default
The price of a token on NEAR Intents is the ratio inside a trade that
`intents.near` actually executed; there is no pool, oracle or stored price,
and a 1Click quote is an offer. This reads `execute_intents` transactions on
the contract's shard, keeps the `token_diff` legs whose receipt succeeded and
whose intent is in `intents_executed`, and records one trade per asset/counter
pair per outcome, counting each unit once whichever side the taker was on.

- core: event parsing, trade building, shard lookup, price and VWAP, tested
  against the logs of mainnet tx 85uy9uCF (USDT on Tron for ZEC).
- data: a NEAR client over the existing RpcClient, live then archival;
  migration 0009 (intents_trade, intents_scan, near_token).
- api: a contiguous-cursor scan and a supply/listing poll per chain, and
  GET /v1/chains/{chain}/intents/{swaps,price}. Prices are in counter-token
  units; no USD until a stablecoin is named by contract.

Gated on `[chains.intents]`, which the config template leaves commented out:
FastNEAR's free RPC sustains about two requests a second against ~1.7 needed
to follow the tip, and neardata allows 30 blocks a minute. It waits for our
own node. A test renders the template and fails if the block is enabled.

Verified end to end against mainnet with ZEC configured: the trade at NEAR
218,261,895 was recorded and served by both routes.

deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 7s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
Until 1e8869e the backfill kept only MiningRewards::* and Balances::Transfer.
The skip-list that replaced that allowlist only applied to blocks read after
the deploy, and event_scan never revisits a range it has claimed. So on
mainnet every block below 18510 has no Wormhole::* (or any other newly kept
kind) while indexed_from says 1. Planck and Heisenberg have the same hole over
whatever they had read by then.

This was found checking #22's endpoint against a mining address whose
deposits began at transfer_count 17,142. A mainnet node decodes
Wormhole::NativeTransferred in blocks 18400 and 18509, under the same spec 152
as the indexed blocks.

Migration 0008 collapses each chain's cursor to its top (low = high), so the
backfill walks back to genesis again. record_events and record_extrinsics
upsert on their primary keys, so re-reading is safe. Until the walk finishes,
indexed_from reports the real, shrinking gap. CLAUDE.md now says that keeping
more events needs a migration like this one.

GET /v1/chains/{chain}/wormhole/deposits?to=<addr>,…&after=<h>:<i>&limit=<n>

Every Wormhole::NativeTransferred to up to 100 addresses (SS58 or 0x hex),
oldest first, with a height:event_index cursor. A deposit carries its
recipient, its amount as a decimal string, its transfer_count and its
leaf_index: what a wallet needs to work out what it can still spend.

A wormhole address's System::Account balance is a receipt total. An exit
credits the exit account and records a nullifier, and never debits the
wormhole address. A deposit is spent when the nullifier its secret and
transfer_count derive is used. The wallet computes and checks that itself;
nothing here asks for nullifiers, because naming one pairs a deposit with its
exit.

This is for the Quantus extension's wormhole balance (quantus/extension#14),
which would otherwise ask Quantus's Subsquid and tell Quantus which addresses
are one person's.

- The query reads chain_event through the accounts GIN index, then keeps only
  rows whose `to` is one of the addresses: accounts holds the sender too, and
  a transfer from a wormhole address is not a deposit to it.
- The response carries indexed_from/indexed_to. On a chain still backfilling,
  a client can't take the sum as a balance without checking it against
  Wormhole::TransferCount.
- CORS on this route alone allows any origin, GET only, merged outside the
  site's allowlist so that allowlist can never answer a preflight for it.
  Extension origins can't be listed (Chrome ids vary by install, Firefox's are
  random per install), and the data is public.

The integration test covers the ways this is silently wrong: a deposit from an
address counted as one to it, another event kind leaking in, a cursor that
skips a same-block sibling, and another chain's rows. Unit tests cover both
address spellings, the cursor, and u128 amounts written as strings.

Adds `/:chain/about`, linked from the header just before the connection light
and the theme toggle — it is about the site rather than the chain, so it sits
there instead of in the section nav, and `header: true` on its `SECTIONS` entry
keeps it out while still letting the URL parse.

The page says what the observer is, that it and the CUDA-optimised miner are
built and freely sourced by a member of the Quantus user community rather than
by the project, and takes donations in QTC.

**The QR is generated in the browser from the address printed beside it, never
shipped as an image.** A supplied PNG next to a typed address is two
independent claims about where money goes, and nothing on the page could tell a
reader if they ever stopped agreeing — a mismatch sends funds somewhere
unrecoverable.

Verified rather than trusted. The address was put through this crate's own SS58
decoder: checksum and network prefix both hold, and it round-trips to the same
string. The QR matrix was then decoded from first principles — function-pattern
map, mask 3 unapplied, codewords de-interleaved across version 4-M's two blocks
— and reads back the address exactly. A note for whoever checks this again: an
independent encoder produces a different matrix for the same string at every
mask, because mode segmentation differs, so comparing matrices proves nothing
and only a decode does.

`the_donation_address_on_the_site_is_a_valid_quantus_address` reads the literal
out of the frontend source and validates it, so a typo fails CI rather than
costing somebody their money. Confirmed to fail on one changed character.

Also on the vesting page, from verifying it live: a "claimable now" figure and
a per-grant claimable column. Two grants began vesting at launch while the other
forty-six wait for 2027, so 68,871 QTC is already claimable and none of it has
been taken — a page that only said "first claimable" would have missed it.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 2bbe8e4d5d feat: a vesting route — when 99.5% of the supply actually arrives
deploy / build (push) Successful in 9m23s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 7s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
The network page said 5,669,940 QTC sits in the vesting pot and stopped there,
which is the largest economic fact about this chain rendered as a single
number. `/:chain/vesting` now carries the schedules, the release curve and the
evidence.

It is the only forward-looking page on the site and it is exact rather than
projected: the runtime vests nothing before a grant's cliff, the whole grant
from its end, and linearly between, so summing that across the schedules is
arithmetic on chain state. `blackbeard-core::vesting` restates those three
branches with tests, because until 2027 nothing on chain will contradict them —
covering the cliff, the mid-window, the `end` branch that makes the final
figure exactly `total` rather than `total` less a rounding crumb, the
`start < cliff` case that unlocks a chunk at once, and a grant large enough
that `total × elapsed` would wrap a `u128` if the product were not split.

Decoded by field name against the metadata, never by offset. The figures that
justified building this were read positionally out of 89 bytes and summed to
the pot exactly — good evidence the layout was guessed right, and exactly the
shortcut this repository forbids elsewhere. A captured mainnet entry now pins
the names, so a reordered struct fails the build rather than quietly paying the
wrong address.

It also retires a weak claim. "Held in the vesting pot" rested on an eight-byte
`PalletId` spelling `qvesting` and a `type PalletId` line read from a source
tree that may not be the deployed commit. `matches_pot` replaces that with
arithmetic: the grants sum to the pot's balance to within the existential
deposit, and if a grant is ended or the pot topped up the page says the two
have parted company rather than going on describing one as the other.

Measured: 48 grants, 5,669,940.000 QTC scheduled against 5,669,940.001 held,
nothing claimed, first unlock 2027-09-09, fully vested 2030-09-08.

`Field` becomes one component instead of four. Going to add a fourth copy found
that the three had already parted company — two rendered `note` as a visible
caption, the third passed it to `title` as a hover — so the shared one takes
both as separate props rather than silently changing a page. The same lesson
`isStandings` records, found the same way.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 da7f773564 feat: how concentrated the balance is, once the treasury is set aside
deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m40s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
The last piece of #17. It was specified as "the share of issuance held by the
top 1, 10 and 100" plus a Gini, and done literally that produces a number that
is true and says nothing — because the top account is the vesting pot holding
99.5% of the chain. The figure would sit near 1.000 and move only when the pot
paid out, describing an undistributed reserve rather than an economy.

So the pot is reported first and then excluded, by its own storage key rather
than by being the largest: "the biggest account" is a description that would
silently start meaning something else the day the pot drains. Everything else
is computed over what is left and labelled as being outside it.

The denominator is the counted balance, not issuance. The two differ, and in
the direction that matters: a wormhole exit credits its destination without
debiting the note's source, so balances summed across the chain exceed
issuance, and shares of issuance would add up to more than everything.

Measured on mainnet: 1,949 accounts, 27,245 QTC outside the pot, top 1 at
39.6%, top 10 at 72.2%, top 100 at 92.2%, Gini 0.965. That top holder is a
mining address — keyless, its balance a cumulative receipt that cannot fall
however much its operator pays out — so the panel says in its own words that
this is partly a statement about who mined most rather than who holds most.

The Gini lives in `blackbeard-core` with its own tests, per the rule about
statistics being easy to overstate and hard to notice: pinned against the
published coefficient for 1,2,3,4, and against a dust holder beside two whales,
which is the case an `f64` accumulator would round away and report as perfect
equality between the whales.

`RpcClient::storage_values` is new — `state_queryStorageAt`, which turns two
thousand round trips into four. Chunked at 500 rather than sent whole because
nothing documents a ceiling here, and an undocumented ceiling is one that gets
discovered in production.

Nothing renders unless the account walk reached the end of the map. Every share
divides by a total, and a partial sum makes all of them wrong while looking
entirely reasonable.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m18s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
The wormhole pulse was broadcast from inside `index_events`, which has two
callers: `record`, for a block that just arrived, and `backfill`, walking
history. So the backfill re-announced every block it re-read — and because it
walks towards the tip, the blocks it re-announced were exactly the ones a
viewer had just watched. The live console listed #43,446 three times.

This is the live/backfill confusion this repository has already been bitten by
twice, arriving by a third road, so the guard is a type rather than a comment:
`Pass::Live` or `Pass::Backfill`, and a caller cannot forget to say which.

The duplicates did more damage than repeating themselves. Console lines were
keyed `height-index`, which looked unique and was not, and React given
duplicate keys renders duplicates *and* stops honouring the list's own length
cap — twelve lines had become eighteen on screen. Lines are keyed on a
monotonic counter now, so a reorg re-recording a height cannot reproduce it.

Neither half was caught by the build, the lint, or the tests. Both were
obvious within a minute of watching the live page.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m36s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
The stage drew a dot per note and left the reader to guess. A dot travelling
inward could be anybody paying anybody, and without text beside it the
animation is an ornament rather than a reading of the chain.

Each pulse now carries a sample of the individual notes — kind, recipient,
amount — and a console below the stage lists them newest-first, the way the
block ticker reads, which also means no auto-scroll to fight with and the line
a reader is looking for never moves.

`kind` is the third split this codebase makes on the producing extrinsic and
the first that separates all three cases: a reward has no extrinsic at all
because it is paid in block initialisation, a transfer has an ordinary one, and
an exit has a `verify_*_batch`. The recorded sender distinguishes none of them.

Two caps, and they turned out to interact. `MAX_PULSE_NOTES` bounds the wire —
a block has carried hundreds of notes and sending every one for a handful of
lines is kilobytes a block of text nobody reads. `CONSOLE_LINES_PER_BLOCK`
bounds one block's share of the console, because without it a single busy block
fills every line and twelve lines from one block look exactly like twelve
blocks of one, which loses the reader all sense of rate.

The count of what is not shown hangs on the block's first line rather than its
last: the list is newest-first, so a count on the last line is the first thing
trimmed, and a block of 260 showed four notes while saying nothing about it.
That one reached a screenshot before it was caught.

The console fills before the reduced-motion guard, so a viewer who asked for
less motion still gets the whole reading — twelve lines, no moving marks,
population still drawn, caption still live.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m19s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
The wormhole page described a pool that was never shown doing anything. It now
opens with a stage where a note arriving falls inward and is swallowed, and a
note leaving climbs out and escapes — driven entirely by blocks this observer
has actually decoded. Nothing is on a loop: a still stage means a still chain.

`index_events` now reports what each block did to the pool, split by the
producing extrinsic exactly as the daily flow query and `exit_cohorts` are —
a settled batch releases value, anything else commits it, and the recorded
sender cannot say because it is the same sentinel either way. The exit
extrinsics are collected inside `index_extrinsics`, the one place the body is
already decoded; finding them in a second pass would re-run `decode_extrinsic`
over Dilithium signatures at 5.3 KiB apiece.

It is broadcast after the block rather than inside it, because the counts cost
two more round trips and the site's ticker must not wait for one panel. A block
that touched no notes broadcasts nothing.

On the front end the pulse takes a side channel — `Observer.onWormhole`, apart
from the state listeners — because a pulse is an event, not a fact about the
page, and routing it through `ObserverState` would re-render the leaderboard,
the ticker and the whole tree once per block for one animation. Marks are
pooled SVG nodes mutated from a loop that starts on a pulse and ends itself.

Honest by construction: marks are capped and the caption is not, so a block
committing 900 notes draws 28 and says nine hundred. `prefers-reduced-motion`
stops the motion and keeps the information — no marks, caption still live,
aria-label still describing the last block.

The stage takes the headline stat row's place on this page. Hashrate,
difficulty, block time, miners and height are on every other page and say
nothing about the pool.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m33s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 15s
The wormhole page counted the pool but never drew the flow through it. It now
leads with a meter — 42% of every note ever created is still unspent — and a
per-day chart of value arriving against value leaving.

Direction is read from the producing extrinsic, never from the sender, which
is the same sentinel whichever way the value is going: anything settled by
`verify_public_batch` or `verify_private_batch` is leaving, everything else is
arriving. `entered + left` reconciles to the day's total exactly.

**The chart is diverging with a single hue.** In and out want two hues either
side of a neutral midpoint, and this site has one data colour. The two-shade
alternative was measured rather than assumed and fails outright — `#bd8829`
against `#e0a63a` scores a normal-vision ΔE of 9.9, under the 15 floor. So
direction is carried by which side of the zero rule a bar sits on, which
survives greyscale, print, forced-colors and every form of colour vision, and
leaves no categorical pair to validate.

Rendering it is what found the rest. Same hue plus touching bars drew one
continuous mark through the rule and the encoding disappeared, so a surface gap
is held open at zero. Five days across a full-width panel drew 170px slabs, so
bar width is capped and the columns space out instead. And `rx` rounds all four
corners of a rect, so bars read as detached lozenges until they became paths
with rounded data-ends only.

Ships with the hover layer, direct labels on the busiest day each way, and a
visually-hidden table so the series exists outside the picture.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m37s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
The premise was that pools are the best surface for observing wormhole
transfers, because payouts must leave a pattern in the batches. The pattern
is there. Most of it is not payouts.

Two things break the obvious reading. Batch *size* is aggregation: the pallet
documents a public batch as one segment per inner private batch and a segment
as one client, so a 120-output batch is an aggregator bundling unrelated
people. And the most recurrent recipient is the aggregator itself — one
address is credited in 91.5% of every public batch anyone submitted and in
none of the private ones, which is the rebate minted to the proof's
`aggregator_address`. QUANPOOL's mining address appears in 501 batches for
7.54 QTC total, 0.015 each: the fee share paid to whoever included the batch.

Classified, three addresses take 76% of everything the exits pay. A cohort
table that did not say so would be describing aggregator plumbing and calling
it an economy, so the share is the section's eyebrow and its first sentence.

What survives the subtraction is the finding worth shipping: among genuine
recipients, 35 addresses paid twenty or more times take two thirds of the
remaining value at twice everyone else's average credit. That is a
recurring-payment shape and the page says it is no more than that — the chain
records no sender, so a regular payee is as plausibly an exchange deposit or
one person on a schedule as a pool meeting its obligations.

Batch size is not rendered anywhere, on purpose.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 4d9d41888a fix: a miner's balance is a receipt total, and the supply figures were wrong
Two claims this repository shipped, both disproved by measuring mainnet.

**A mining address is keyless, so its balance can only rise.** `retained`
was documented here as "the one measure privacy cannot hide", reasoning that
a payment debits the account whichever route it takes. It does not.
`mining-rewards` pays `derive_wormhole_address(preimage)`, which no Dilithium
keypair signs for, and `Wormhole::credit_and_record` credits an exit's
destination with `Unbalanced::increase_balance` while never debiting the
note's source. QUANPOOL's balance rose at all twelve samples between blocks
1,000 and 42,400 and fell at none, nonce 0 throughout — as every miner's must.

So `retained` read ~100% for everyone because it had to, and a number
identical for all reads as an accusation aimed at whoever mined most. The
column is gone, `balance` is `received`, and the table says plainly that a
pool paying out in full and one paying nothing produce the same row.

**Four empty lock maps are not "nothing is withheld".** Locks, Holds,
Freezes and Reserves are all empty — counted, not assumed — and the network
page concluded circulating equals total issuance. Wrong by a factor of 436:
this runtime vests from a *pot*, not with locks, and `modlqvesting` holds
5,669,940 QTC, 99.54% of every unit of balance on the chain. The page now
reports the pot and issuance-minus-pot, and still declines the word
"circulating" because the release schedule is not read here.

The pot address is derived from `Vesting::PalletId` in metadata rather than
a hard-coded `qvesting`: it is a consequence of a runtime constant, and a
runtime that changed it would leave the site reporting an empty pot while
looking perfectly healthy. Both steps are pinned against the real mainnet
metadata fixture.

Also recorded: never sum account balances and call it supply. They exceed
`TotalIssuance` by 13,427 QTC at block 42,400 and by exactly zero at genesis,
bisecting to block 4,800 and a `verify_public_batch` — private value is
counted twice by any such total. Single blocks reconcile exactly, so a spot
check says everything is fine.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m33s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 17s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
The observer had nothing to say about this chain's central feature, which is
why the distribution table's outflow column could ship reading zero for every
miner and look like evidence.

A transfer inserts a commitment as a note; spending one proves a nullifier,
which the runtime records so it cannot be spent twice. That makes the pool
countable even though its movements are not:

    ZkTree::LeafCount           82,691   notes created
    Wormhole::UsedNullifiers    47,796   notes spent
    outstanding                 34,895   unspent — still inside

Outstanding is the headline. It is the part of the chain's activity that has not
moved, and every one of those notes will name a recipient and an amount and not
a sender when it does.

The routes table separates transfers by the extrinsic that produced them,
because a hidden sender means two different things. In block initialisation it
is the chain paying a miner and the "sender" is the runtime; inside
`verify_public_batch` or `verify_private_batch` it is somebody spending a note
and the origin genuinely is not recorded. Collapsing those would make mining
rewards look like anonymous payments — 23,876 of them.

Notes per day come from the `leaf_index` each transfer carries rather than from
`ZkTree::LeafInserted`, which is in `SKIPPED_EVENTS` because it fires every block
and names no account. Same fact, cheaper road.

`SegmentsDenied` and `ExitMintFailed` have never fired. Shown anyway, because a
proof rejection nobody has ever seen is a finding rather than a gap — though it
is a weaker statement than it looks, and the note says so: never refused is not
the same as never attempted.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 06f3ece228 feat: account flows, and a distribution table for mining rewards
Reported concern: one pool's balance is disproportionately large, and it is not
clear whether rewards are reaching miners. This makes the question answerable
from the chain rather than from impressions.

Measured on mainnet while building it, blocks 1–42,274:

    account            mined   received     sent  recipients
    QUANPOOL          10,171      5,207        0           0
    qzomrwjT…              0     11,382    4,071          90
    qzo1Pr3X…              0      3,875    7,528         986
    qzo4QjZz…              0      1,257    2,448         742
    qznbesUc…              0      1,600        0           0

Direction comes from each transfer event's own `from` and `to` — `Wormhole::
NativeTransferred` and `Balances::Transfer` both carry them — so every figure is
something the chain recorded.

**A nonce cannot answer this, and reaching for one is the obvious mistake.**
Wormhole transfers dispatch unsigned: `verify_private_batch` and
`verify_public_batch` have no signer at all. An address here can move a fortune
with a nonce of zero, and I nearly reported one as proof that nothing had ever
been sent.

The presentation reports flows and does not judge them, because the data cannot
settle what they mean. Two facts in the table above are why: several large
accounts send nothing — ordinary for a solo miner keeping what it earned — and
the accounts distributing to hundreds of recipients have never mined a block, so
payout wallets here are funded from somewhere other than mining addresses. There
is also no such thing as a "pool" on this chain: the word appears only in a name
its operator reports over telemetry, which `MinerFlow::attribution` carries so a
reader can weigh it.

What earns the feature its place is comparison. One miner's recipient count says
little; beside its neighbours' it says a great deal, and the reader draws the
conclusion rather than the site.

deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 17s
The site answered "who is mining" thoroughly and "what is this economy doing"
not at all. Everything needed was already reachable and none of it was
assembled anywhere.

Measured against mainnet rather than assumed:

    total issuance      5,682,913.17 QTC
    endowed at genesis  5,670,000.00 QTC
    mined since          12,913.17 QTC   <- emission to date, printed nowhere else
    accounts                    1,925    counted, not inferred from indexed events
    locks/holds/freezes/reserves    0    all four, counted
    vesting schedules              48
    referenda                       0
    reversible transfers            0
    calls used                 7 of 58
    events fired              18 of 107

**No "circulating supply" field, deliberately.** With every immobilising map
empty it would equal total issuance exactly, and printing it as a separate
headline would assert a distinction this chain does not currently make. The page
states what was counted and lets that be read. Vesting is a count rather than a
sum for the same reason: this runtime's vesting does not touch the balances
locks, so what it holds and when it releases would be a guess.

**Signed extrinsics are separated from the total**, because three quarters of
this chain's extrinsics are inherents — 513 signed of 2,052 on the day measured
— and a single "transactions per day" line would be mostly clockwork, a number
that reads as adoption and is not.

Two kinds of certainty share the page and are kept apart. Supply and the map
sizes are chain state, read now. The daily activity is our index, and the
Activity panel prints the range it covered and says "the whole chain" or "a
partial index" — a chart whose axis claims a month over a week of data is the
failure this repository has already shipped twice.

One thing found while building it: a counter that has never moved is *absent*
from storage, not zero. `TechReferenda::ReferendumCount` and
`ReversibleTransfers::NextTransactionId` both read as nothing, and reporting
them unknown would have hidden the most interesting fact about them — that
governance and reversible transfers are shipped and have never been used.
`plain_value` falls back to the entry's declared default, which is only sound
because `StorageTarget` says whether it is `Default` or `Optional`.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m23s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
Reported: `baba-gorchitsa` shows its hardware on telemetry.quantus.com and
nothing here. Not a decoding failure — we held the data. Measured, the same node
on both chains at the same moment:

    quantus  attribution=carried, 0 votes, 33 blocks   on the feed: yes
    planck   attribution=telemetry, 1 vote, 2969 blocks on the feed: no

Exactly inverted. On mainnet we had the metadata and no join to it; on Planck
the join and no node. The mainnet name is *carried* from Planck, and
`Attribution::peer_id` is `None` for anything but a telemetry attribution
because there is no node behind a carried name — that reasoning stands. The
mistake was upstream: node metadata was reachable *only* through the mining
inference, and the feed hands us every node unconditionally. 288 on mainnet, of
which a handful have ever won a block.

So `/:chain/node` lists all of them and `/:chain/node/:peer` is one, neither
gated on mining. The index merges the live feed over the cache, so a node not
re-announced since our last restart still appears, faint, with its peer count
absent rather than stale — a peer count from an hour ago is not a peer count.
Live rows sort first, then by name, and the filter matches name, peer id, CPU,
version or country, because "find my node" is the question the page exists for.

The miner panel now links to the node's own page instead of being the only way
to see it.

`reported` beside the count is the feed's own `AddedChain` figure and will not
match in either direction — 284 against 288 listed, measured, because it is a
snapshot the feed refreshes on its own cadence. Shown next to our count rather
than instead of it, since the difference is a real fact about how each was
arrived at. My first comment claimed it was "usually larger"; it was smaller the
first time I looked at it.

One trap caught in the browser rather than by the type checker: "is this the
standings?" existed three times, and adding a section updated two. The redirect
in `App` judged `/quantus/node/<peer>` to be the standings and replaced it with
`/quantus/3600-blocks` — route parsed, page existed, address bar threw it away.
It is `isStandings` now, in one place.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 e7cfe42881 feat(telemetry): read what a node is doing, live off the socket
deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m28s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
Peer count, transactions in its pool, upload, download and state cache — the
volatile half of the feed, decoded from `NodeStatsUpdate`, `NodeHardware` and
`NodeIOUpdate`, plus the first values `AddedNode` itself carries so a freshly
announced node reads correctly rather than waiting for an update frame.

**Never persisted, and the shape says so.** These live in `NodeActivity`, held
in memory and attached to the miner route only when the feed is currently
reporting the node — a node answered from the cache gets its hardware and no
activity at all. A peer count from an hour ago is not a peer count, and storing
one would turn a live reading into a stale number that still looks live.

Only the newest sample of each series is kept. The feed sends rolling arrays and
already redraws them; this is a readout, not a chart. `NodeHardware` carries
three parallel series and the third is the feed's own x-axis, which is why the
test asserts the download figure is not the timestamps.

An update naming a node the feed has not introduced is dropped rather than
counted a decode error: a feed joined mid-stream sees these before the
`AddedNode` that explains them, and it will be re-sent.

Bandwidth renders in decimal units while memory and state cache render in
binary. That is not an inconsistency — a reader comparing bandwidth against a
NIC or a speed test is comparing against decimal, and one comparing memory
against what they bought is comparing against binary.

Verified against the live feed: 34 peers, 103 kB/s up, 20.5 kB/s down, 528 MiB
of state cache, read off mainnet and rendered.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m37s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 17s
Caches what the telemetry feed says each node *is*, and surfaces it on the miner
route: client version, target triple, CPU, cores, memory, kernel, distribution,
whether it is virtualised, country, and how long the node process has been up.

Kept in `node_telemetry`, keyed by peer id — never by the feed's `node_id`,
which is per-connection and would accumulate a row per reconnect for the same
machine. Written every five minutes rather than every thirty seconds like the
attributions beside it: a CPU does not change, and mainnet alone has nearly
three hundred nodes. The route reads the live feed first and the cache second,
so a node the feed has not re-announced since our last restart still answers.

Nulls never overwrite. The telemetry server geolocates asynchronously, so every
reconnect re-sends every node with a null location — a naive upsert would blank
the country of every node on the site for as long as the lookups took to catch
up. The guard is in the feed state and in the `on conflict` clause both, with a
test for each.

**Location is a country and no finer.** The feed sends coordinates and a city
from an IP geolocation database, and at city resolution those are wrong often
enough that showing one would assert something nobody knows.
`blackbeard_core::geo` derives the country offline from a 508 KiB boundary set —
no network call, and nothing told where these nodes are — and the coordinates
are then dropped. The schema has no city, latitude or longitude column: a column
that does not exist cannot be rendered by mistake. The lookup returns
subdivisions before countries and `GB-ENG` is exactly the precision being
avoided, so only the two-letter code survives.

**The panel wears its uncertainty in the header, not a footnote.** A miner is
joined to a node by the same first-reporter voting that gives it a display name,
so `Attribution` now carries the peer id it settled on — `None` for a preimage
or a carried name, because there is no node behind either. The heading reads
"reported by" and the confidence and vote count sit beside it. The note says the
CPU is the node's and not necessarily what is hashing: on this network the work
is on GPUs that telemetry does not report at all.

Checked against the live feed end to end, not a fixture: real frames decoded,
cached, served and rendered. One node reports an Ubuntu userspace on a Fedora
kernel, which is a container seeing its host — the panel shows that faithfully
rather than tidying it away.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 0b3c1b2e1b feat(telemetry): decode the whole of NodeDetails, and locate nodes by country
We were reading two fields of eleven — the name and the peer id — and dropping
the rest, including the hardware every node already announces. `NodeMetadata`
now carries the slow-moving half: implementation, version, the target triple,
CPU, cores, memory, kernel, distro, whether it is virtualised, and the process
start time.

The volatile half stays out on purpose. Peer count, transaction queue,
bandwidth and state cache change every few seconds, are already a rolling series
in the feed, and would be a lot of rows for something nobody would page back
through.

`startup_time` is kept rather than derived, so node uptime becomes a fact about
the node rather than about how long this observer has been watching it.

**Location is resolved to a country and no finer.** The feed sends
`[latitude, longitude, city]` and no country, so `blackbeard_core::geo` derives
one offline from a 508 KiB boundary set — no network call, and no third party
told where these nodes are. The city is read and discarded: those coordinates
come from an IP geolocation database and at city resolution are wrong often
enough that publishing one would assert something we do not know. Nothing
downstream can render a city because nothing downstream is given one. The
lookup returns subdivisions before countries, and `GB-ENG` is exactly the extra
precision this is avoiding, so only the two-letter code survives.

`LocatedNode` is a separate frame because the telemetry server geolocates
asynchronously — `AddedNode` almost always carries a null location and the
country follows a moment later. Which means a reconnect, which re-sends every
node with a null location again, must not erase a country already resolved.
There is a test for that, because it would present as countries silently
vanishing hours after a restart.

The mapping is pinned by tests built from frames captured off the live feed
rather than from a spec: the format is positional and differs between telemetry
releases, so bytes the feed actually sent are the only honest fixture. If a
future release renumbers a field, those tests are what says so.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m48s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
I closed #14 on an incomplete fix. Heisenberg still reports **0.054 s/block**
while producing one block every five minutes — 5,500x too fast — with the
running code already correct.

Fixing the code did not fix the rows already written. `at_tip` in the table is
whatever the process that wrote it believed, and every process before the
receipt-stamping fix believed a drained channel was a tip observation. Those
rows are still there, and `restore_ticker_and_timing` replays them on every
start, so the bug comes back from storage each time a chain is restarted after a
catch-up. Heisenberg produces a block every five minutes, which is far too slow
to accumulate twenty fresh samples before the next restart, so it never got the
chance to correct itself.

Restored samples are now checked against the one clock the observer cannot fake.
At the tip a block is seen roughly when it is authored, so the span the observer
recorded should resemble the span the chain recorded for the same blocks.
Propagation and skew are seconds; a catch-up is a factor. A batch that fails is
left unrestored and timing starts fresh — nominal, and labelled nominal.

The threshold is deliberately loose (half) because it only has to separate two
populations that differ by orders of magnitude, and being generous to honest
skew costs nothing: the penalty for a false negative is one window of nominal
hashrate, and for a false positive it is a headline wrong by 5,000x.

Reopens #14 — closing it again when all three chains have held a plausible
interval across a restart, rather than when the code looks right.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m48s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 17s
`bucketing` mapped each window to a fixed duration — `600 blocks -> 1 hour`,
`3,600 -> 6 hours` — which is only true at a 6 s target. It was the last place
still assuming a window's block count implies a duration, which is the
assumption the rename retired.

On Planck the gap is visible: its rate fell ninefold when its miners left for
mainnet, so a 600-block window spans about five hours, and the chart underneath
was drawing one. A miner's rank was computed over one period and its history
plotted over another, with nothing on the page saying so.

The range is the window's measured span now, with buckets sized to hit
`MINER_SERIES_POINTS`, so a chart stays the same width in points however fast
the chain is running. Where no span is measured yet — only before the window has
filled — it falls back to the block count at the chain's target rate, which is
the same guess the old table encoded.

Bounded at both ends, because a measurement can be extreme in both directions: a
floor so a burst cannot collapse the chart to minutes, a ceiling so
`100800-blocks` on a slow chain cannot ask the database for a year of buckets.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m52s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 18s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
The gap-fill guard fixed the coarse half of #14 — Planck went from 0.175 s/block
to 4.9 — and left the rest standing. Measured just now against a real ~30 s on
Planck and ~6 s on Heisenberg:

    quantus     9.59 s     plausible
    planck      4.919 s    six times too fast
    heisenberg  0.052 s    a hundred times too fast

`record` stamped `observed_at` with `Utc::now()`, which runs *after* two RPC
round trips and behind a 64-deep channel. On a remote endpoint those round trips
are hundreds of milliseconds, so heads queue and then drain in a burst — a batch
carrying near-identical observation times while their heights march on.
`measured_interval` divides elapsed time by height difference and reads that as
a chain producing blocks twenty times faster than it does.

`observed_at` means "when this observer saw it", so it is now stamped where the
frame is read off the socket: `subscribe_new_heads` sends a `SeenHead` carrying
that moment and `record` uses it rather than asking the clock again. Every
consumer improves at once, because the same field is the DB row, the ticker's
gap, and the tip sample.

Worth noting what this does *not* need: no threshold, no plausibility check, no
discarding of samples. The measurement was always sound; it was being given the
wrong time.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m3s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 7s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 20s
The site is currently serving a frontend that asks for `window=3600` from an API
that only knows `six_hours`, and every step behaved as designed:

  run 51  ef367d5  rust + web   BUILD FAILED — nothing deployed
  run 52  2594190  web only     web deployed, deploy-api skipped
  run 53  49f50bd  docs only    nothing deployed

Run 52 diffed against `github.event.before`, which is run 51's commit — a commit
whose Rust half never shipped. It correctly saw only `web/src/lib/routes.ts` and
correctly skipped the API. The frontend went out alone.

The gate was asking the wrong question. "What changed since the previous push"
is only the same as "what changed since what is deployed" while every push
deploys, and a failed run breaks that quietly — the workflow's own comment warns
about "a binary on bob that does not match this commit, which nothing would
report", and this is that case arriving by a route the path list cannot see.

So ask the API. `/v1/healthz` now carries the commit it was built from, stamped
via `GIT_SHA` at build time, and the gate diffs from there. `build.rs` exists
only to make cargo notice the value changed, since `option_env!` is read at
compile time and a warm cache would otherwise keep a stale stamp.

Best effort throughout: an unreachable API, a binary too old to carry a stamp,
or a commit this clone does not have all fall back to `github.event.before`,
which is exactly today's behaviour. The gate only ever widens — a false positive
costs a slow deploy, and that trade is already written down beside it.

This commit touches `.gitea/` and `crates/`, so it deploys the API and unbreaks
the site as it lands.

deploy / build (push) Failing after 7m48s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Has been skipped
deploy / deploy-api (push) Has been skipped
Planck's page reported a **0.175 s** block time against a true 29.8 — a factor
of 170 — flagged *measured* rather than nominal, so the headline block time, the
network hashrate (877 GH/s on a testnet nobody mines) and the window label were
all wrong and none of them looked it.

`measured_interval` divides elapsed time by height difference, which is the
chain's rate only if every height between two samples was watched arriving. A
gap fill is proof they were not. `record()` marked every head-stream block
`at_tip: true`, including the head that landed right after `fill_gap` closed a
1,251-block gap — so the pair straddling it measured how fast this observer
caught up. `ingest` now forgets its tip samples whenever it fills a gap and
records the closing head with `at_tip: false`. The interval goes nominal until
twenty fresh samples exist, which is `MIN_TIP_SAMPLES` doing its job: nominal
and labelled nominal beats measured and wrong.

The reported symptom was smaller and had the same root. `baba-gorchitsa` showed
three blocks in Planck's "six hours" having left for mainnet a day earlier — and
it was right to: 3,600 Planck blocks currently span **29 hours**, because the
chain's rate fell ninefold when its miners left. The label was built by
multiplying the block count by the current interval, which describes the rate
now rather than the period covered. It comes from `span_seconds` instead — the
authored-time span of exactly the blocks tallied, already the denominator of
every per-miner hashrate — and carries no "~", because nothing is estimated.

So the names went too. A window is a block count, and calling one `six_hours` is
a promise the site cannot keep on a chain whose rate moves; `/planck/six_hours`
was the reason a reader believed a day-old row was current. The selector reads
600 / 3.6k / 14.4k / 100.8k and the URL carries the count. Less friendly than
`6h`, and true on every chain. The old names still parse and are never emitted,
so shared links keep working — the router rewrites them.

The recompute and the response disagree in production and only the recompute was
visible. With `held` now logged, mainnet's window holds 20,134 and its SixHours
recompute tallies 3,600 — correct — while the REST response for the same chain,
window and process reports 1,177, and a request for `week` triggers no recompute
at all. So the reader is served a cached board that the five-second recompute is
not replacing, and both halves need to say what they did.

`chain` on the recompute line too. Its absence made three chains' recomputes
indistinguishable, which cost an hour of reading the wrong one.

Also a test driving the real path — push a restored window, then
`recompute_leaderboard` — which passes, and so places the fault after the tally
rather than in it.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m15s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 6s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 17s
Static reading cannot settle #13. Warm start logs restoring 19,910 blocks for
mainnet and the board it serves divides every share by 1,065, and every
explanation that would reconcile the two is ruled out in the code: the deque is
only ever pushed and popped at a capacity of 100,800, `tail(n)` yields
`min(n, len)`, `tally` counts every entry it walks, nothing filters rows, the
board recomputes every five seconds, and there is exactly one non-test
`ChainRuntime` and one `RollingWindow` per chain, shared by `Arc`.

So: log the length. `warm start: window restored` now carries `held` beside
`blocks` — the two must agree, and when they did not, every share on the site was
computed over the difference with nothing saying so. `recompute_leaderboard`
logs what it asked for, what was held and what it tallied at debug.

The new test pins the half of the contradiction that lives in
`blackbeard-core`: a window pushed 19,910 blocks holds 19,910, tallies 3,600 for
a 3,600 window, and tallies 19,910 when asked for more than it holds. That is
the arithmetic the served response contradicts, so an investigation upstream of
it does not have to re-establish that a deque holds what was pushed.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m53s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 15s
Failover moved on a transport failure and never on a JSON-RPC error, both
right — but a node that has pruned the state being asked for does neither. It
answers `{"result": null}`, which is a success, so whichever endpoint happened
to be sticky decided how far back the whole site could see.

The tempting fix is wrong. Null is also the correct answer for most keys read
here: an account with no balance, an item never set, the treasury's
`System::Account` entry, absent because the treasury was never funded. Retrying
every one of those against every endpoint would multiply the load to re-derive
an answer already in hand, and still end in null. The distinction is not in the
response — it is whether the node could have known, which is a property of the
endpoint.

So `classify_depth` probes each one at startup, reading `System::Number` at
block one. That key is derived in a test rather than pasted, because a mistyped
key is absent everywhere and would classify every endpoint as pruned. An
endpoint that answers holds all state after block one; one that cannot be
reached stays `Unknown` and routes as pruned, since an unreachable host must not
become the archive of record by default.

Reads naming a block hash then go through `call_deep`. It tries the sticky
endpoint first, so the common case — mainnet's loopback node, which is an
archive — costs no extra round trip. Only a null from an endpoint never shown to
hold old state buys a second opinion, and `state_call`'s refusal is treated the
same way, because that is how difficulty is read and a node that cannot execute
against dropped state errors rather than returning null.

All seven configured endpoints probe as archives right now, so this changes no
current behaviour. It is what stops history going quietly blank the day one of
them stops being one — and it says so in the log when it happens, because an
endpoint that cannot see as far back as the site is asking is a configuration
fact worth surfacing rather than a chain fact.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m3s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 17s
Two faults, one visible symptom: both testnet leaderboards frozen for a day at
the height their gap opened at, while mainnet was fine.

The daemon had aborted 316 times in ten hours, always identically —
`memory allocation of 82014765760 bytes failed`, 76.4 GiB. That is
1,025,184,572 x 80, and 80 is `size_of::<scale_value::Value<u32>>()`:
scale-value sizes a sequence's `Vec` from the compact length in the blob before
decoding a single item, so a blob that disagrees with the registry asks for an
allocation of any size at all and Rust aborts on the failed one. The step that
would have caught the mismatch is the one that never runs, which is why
`decode_events(&blob).ok()` could not help — there was no `Err`, only SIGABRT.

Every decode now goes through `Runtime::decode_checked`, which walks the bytes
first with scale-decode's `IgnoreVisitor`. That crate has no `with_capacity`
anywhere, so an impossible length runs out of input on the first item and comes
back as an error. The regression test is the exact four-byte blob, reproduced
against the mainnet fixture before the guard went in — the abort message matched
production byte for byte.

`fill_gap` then turned a short process lifetime into no progress whatsoever: it
accumulated the whole gap and wrote once after the loop, so every interruption
discarded everything read. Each block is four RPC round trips, one a historical
state read; 1,696 blocks against a remote endpoint does not fit in the two
minutes the aborts allowed. And this is not only about the aborts —
`blackbeard-api-cert.path` restarts the service several times a day, so any gap
wider than that interval was already unfillable, logging
`filling a gap in the head stream` on every start with the same `from` and
looking like progress. It flushes every 256 blocks now, and says how many it
recorded.

Both traps are in CLAUDE.md, because neither looks broken from the outside: one
presents as a service that is merely restarting, the other as a catch-up that is
merely slow.

deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m19s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 4s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
A chain entry held exactly one `rpc_url` and one `ws_url`, and when that host
went down everything for that chain stopped — headers, difficulty, backfill,
state reads, runtime discovery. The endpoints already existed in pairs:
`a2-planck` and `a2-heisenberg` both answer and neither was configured. We were
choosing single points of failure the network went to some trouble to avoid.

`rpc_urls` and `ws_urls` are lists now, and `rpc_url`/`ws_url` still work as a
one-element list — a config naming one endpoint is still a valid config, and
making every deployment rewrite its entry would be this feature breaking the
thing it exists to make reliable.

Endpoints are stuck to rather than balanced across, which is the design and not
laziness: a storage read at an old block hash needs a node that still holds that
block's state, and nodes prune on their own schedules, so alternating would
return a mixture of answers and absences that reads as sparse data rather than a
configuration problem. The cursor is shared across clones so a failover one task
finds is not rediscovered by every other task on the chain.

Failing over on the wrong thing was the trap worth avoiding. A JSON-RPC error is
the node answering — moving on `count exceeds maximum value` would hide a
caller's mistake behind a second node making the same complaint — so a new
`Malformed` variant separates "did not answer" from "answered, with an error".
A pruned block returns `{"result": null}`, a success, and never looks unhealthy.

The WebSocket rotates at reconnect, where the loop already was; racing
subscriptions across endpoints and deduplicating heads buys nothing, since heads
are a liveness signal and ingest fills gaps against `chain_getBlockHash` anyway.

Verified live with a dead endpoint configured first: Planck stayed `full` at its
real height, the RPC logged one `failed over` with from and to, and the head
subscription logged the loss with the endpoint count beside it — because "the
chain is unreachable" and "one of three endpoints is unreachable" are different
operational facts and used to look identical.

chain with nothing in flight, which is precisely what mainnet legitimately looks
like. It would have stayed wrong indefinitely.

Caught only because `ReversibleTransfers::NextTransactionId` is a plain counter
reading 5 on Heisenberg, which contradicted the page. Every path tested during
the original work happened to be under the cap — `GENESIS_LIMIT` is 500, and the
`System::Account` check used 3 — so the machinery looked verified.

Three fixes. The clamp lives in `rpc.rs`, because 1,000 is the node's ceiling
rather than a caller's preference. The route no longer swallows the error: a
chain whose runtime lacks the pallet already returns 404, so a failure here is a
real fault and now says so. And the constant is under the cap so the common case
is one request.

Verified against Heisenberg's two real pending transfers, which also exercise
the unknown-deadline path — both were scheduled before the event index reaches,
so they render as pending with no countdown rather than being dropped.

CLAUDE.md gains the general shape: `unwrap_or_default()` on anything that talks
to a node is how a wrong answer comes to look like a right one.

Closes #4

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 88086552cb fix: show a block's events, joined to the extrinsics that caused them
deploy / build (push) Successful in 9m18s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 4s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 14s
The block page listed extrinsics and nothing else. Block 1 holds twenty-eight
indexed events and the route returned none of them — visible from the outside,
because an account page linked to a `Wormhole::NativeTransferred` at block 1 and
block 1 showed no sign of it.

`phase` and `extrinsic_index` were stored for exactly this join and had never
been used. Each extrinsic now carries its own events beneath it, and the block's
own events sit in their phases.

Block 1 is the argument for doing it that way. As extrinsics alone it is a
single `Timestamp::set`. Its events are the entire opening distribution:
twenty-one `Wormhole::NativeTransferred` in `Initialization`, owned by no
extrinsic at all and sent from the minting account — not block zero, and not
anything a transaction did. `Vesting::LaunchMomentSet` fires there too, so
vesting has been exercised despite the call index showing zero `Vesting::*`
dispatched: a pallet the runtime uses looks unused from the call side alone.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 dd8086df0d feat: mark the accounts a chain names, and make genesis unmissable
deploy / build (push) Successful in 8m4s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 15s
Some accounts are special and nothing about the address said so. The treasury
looked like any other empty account, the minting sentinel looked like a wallet,
and the twenty-one accounts endowed at genesis looked like they earned it.

No curated list. The chain names them itself, in three places that are three
different claims and are not flattened into one badge: a runtime constant
(compiled in, immutable for that spec_version), a storage value (assigned, and
changeable), and a balance in block zero (history, and not a role — an account
can be endowed and have no job). Labels derive from the chain's own name, so a
pallet added next year is labelled without an edit. The chip is the claim; the
citation beneath it is the evidence.

Two rules hold it together, both learned the hard way and both now in CLAUDE.md.
An account is told from a hash by registry path, never by shape — after
`normalise` both are `0x` and sixty-four hex characters, so `decode_typed` now
returns the account set the decoder collected while it still knew. And a storage
entry names an account only if its value *is* one: `System::Events` is full of
accounts and names none, and the first cut labelled half the chain's active
addresses `Events`.

Computing all of this walks every plain storage entry and enumerates block zero
— dozens of round trips, fine once and pathological on every account page view —
so it is cached for five minutes. Constants change with the runtime, state
assignments almost never, genesis never.

Block zero gets the endowments, because they have no extrinsic and no event and
are invisible to anyone who has not read the chainspec, and a Genesis link sits
in the nav to give somebody who would never think to look an unmissable way to.
Mainnet started with 5,670,000 QTC across 21 accounts — one holds 5,669,940 and
the other twenty got 3 each — shown beside what each holds today, so what a
founding account did with its stake is one row. When genesis state cannot be
read the page says so rather than showing an empty table: missing data and a
chain that endowed nobody are different claims.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 c08d3c4e04 feat: pending reversible transfers, with a countdown
deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m44s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 14s
Scheduled transfers that have not yet landed, counting down to the block they
execute at. `ReversibleTransfers` is the most distinctive thing this chain does
and the observer said nothing about it.

The only view here built from both halves, each authoritative about a different
thing. State — `PendingTransfers` — says what is still pending: a cancelled or
executed transfer is simply gone from the map, and that absence beats replaying
every event since genesis and reconstructing the set, which fails silently. The
event index says when each is due, because `TransactionScheduled` carries
`execute_at` and, contrary to what the issue assumed, the stored struct does
not. A transfer scheduled before the index reaches shows as pending with an
unknown deadline rather than being dropped for half a story.

Enumerating a map needs the prefix and `state_getKeysPaged` — there is no list,
only keys derived from the things in it — and recovering a key from a storage
key needs the hasher to have kept it. `Blake2_128Concat` and `Twox64Concat` do,
`Twox128` and friends do not, so `key_offset` is `None` there rather than a
guess. Verified against a populated map since the target one is empty:
`System::Account` enumerates, its keys decode back to accounts, and the balances
read.

`execute_at` is a `DispatchTime<BlockNumber, Moment>` — an enum, so reading the
wrong arm would show a millisecond timestamp as a height. Time remaining is an
estimate from a block interval that moves; the block count is the fact and the
page says so.

The page reads "nothing is in flight" today, correctly and deliberately: zero of
this pallet's six calls have been dispatched on mainnet. It exists before the
first one because catching the first one is the point.

CLAUDE.md gains the workflow this was the first of — issue first, closed by the
commit, and corrections recorded as comments on the issue rather than as
surprises in a diff.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 6b0e02e059 feat: read chain state, decoded against the runtime
deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m59s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Failing after 4s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 16s
The observer could read headers, events, extrinsics, metadata and difficulty,
and not a single pallet storage item. Answering "which address is this chain's
treasury" meant going outside it and hand-deriving twox128 prefixes, which is a
gap in the tool rather than an answer.

The treasury is the case that shows why. `set_treasury_account` reads *never* on
the call index and `TreasuryAccountUpdated` reads *never* on the event index —
both true, because the address was set at genesis, so no extrinsic ever carried
it and no event ever announced it. It exists only in state. It is
qzjsuLN7Nhu4bjvmUbjSTr2ZTeZ7oRxXpQP9fdv6PcHUCRrVR, and it has never been funded.

`Runtime::storage_key` builds a key entirely from the runtime's own description
— the pallet's storage prefix, the item name, and each key's declared hasher —
because a wrong hasher yields a key that reads as *absent* rather than as an
error, and nothing would catch it. Its test pins two keys against ones read off
the live chain by hand. Keys are SCALE-encoded against the type the entry
declares, so a map on an account, a u32 or a tuple all work without this knowing
which it is.

Absent is not zero, and only the modifier knows which: an `optional` entry
holding nothing means nothing, a `default` entry means the runtime's default,
and the state page marks the latter rather than passing it off as something the
chain wrote. `read_balance` deliberately does not apply the default —
`AccountInfo` zeroes, Substrate reaps empty accounts, and falling back would
turn "does not exist" into "holds nothing", which is the treasury's exact case.

/:chain/state lists all 40 keyless entries decoded, and an account page now
carries a real balance beside the flows it already summed. Those are different
numbers: rewards say what an account was paid, a balance says what it has, and
they differ by every transfer out.

grenadeandClaude Opus 5 1e8869e7a1 feat: index the whole event surface, and show what has never fired
deploy / build (push) Successful in 7m31s
deploy / deploy-web (push) Successful in 5s
deploy / deploy-api (push) Successful in 14s
The event interest list was an allowlist of two entries, which meant every
capability the chain grew was invisible until somebody remembered to add a line
— the exact failure the metadata-oracle approach exists to avoid. It is a
denylist now.

Nothing is excluded for being unused. Whether a capability is exercised is the
question an analyst is asking: a chain that ships vesting and governance nobody
touches is telling you something, and it can only tell you that if the silence
is recorded rather than filtered on the way in. The rule for exclusion is
narrower than volume and narrower than usefulness — an event carrying no account
can never answer "everything involving this account", which is what the index is
for. Three kinds both name no account and fire every block, so they are skipped:
ZkTree::LeafInserted, QPoW::DifficultyAdjusted, System::ExtrinsicSuccess. They
render as "not indexed" rather than as a zero, because a zero reads as disuse.

Balances::Minted looked like a fourth. It fired exactly as often as
MinerRewarded across a 120-block sample and for the same reason, but it names an
account, minting is not only for miners, and showing a reward twice on one page
is a presentation problem to solve on that page rather than a reason to lose the
record. Kept.

`/:chain/event` is the call index's other half — 19 of 107 kinds fired — and
`/:chain/event/:pallet/:variant` the feed behind a row. Measured on live
mainnet the widening took the index from ~1.2 to ~3.4 rows per block and bought
739 accounts' worth of wormhole transfers that were previously invisible.

Signatures also lose their associated-type ceremony: the runtime writes
`<<T as frame_system::Config>::Lookup as StaticLookup>::Source`, which is
correct and forty characters of scaffolding around one word, and three of those
in a row pushed the counts off the side of the table. Generics are untouched —
`BalanceOf<T>` is information.
