Content SEO pages keyed derived-payload cache validity on
history_token = PAYLOAD_VER:hist_end, computed from the fully-loaded
~45-year archive. Every hourly tail top-up advanced hist_end and
invalidated the whole content cache for a cell, and computing the token
at all required loading the full history first — so even cache hits paid
the full load.
Add content_token(cell_id) = PAYLOAD_VER:CONTENT_VER:max_date, keyed on
the archive's newest DATE read cheaply without loading history:
climate_store.history_max_date does an indexed MAX(date) over the
(cell_id, date) PK on Postgres; climate.history_max_date dispatches to it
or to a single-column scan of the cached parquet on the dev backend. The
token survives intra-day top-ups and turns over only when the last
archived day advances (~1x/day), keeping content pages <=1 day stale.
Fail-soft: a store/DB error buckets to 'none' rather than raising.
CONTENT_VER ("c1") is a separate content-shape version so a content-only
change need not orphan every other kind's cache.
The gateway bot and APScheduler were long-lived stateful I/O loops running
inside the async web app under a leader election. They move into a single Go
binary that owns ONLY that I/O -- websocket, RESUME, heartbeat, backoff, timers.
It owns no grading logic. Anything needing data calls back over a new
internal-only surface (/internal/discord/grade, /internal/jobs/*). Grading
depends on polars and the parquet cache; reimplementing it in Go would let the
bot's grades drift from the API's. The grade route returns gateway-ready JSON
and Go relays the bytes verbatim.
The binary ships in the backend image and runs as a second compose service off
the same tag, so the two ends of the /internal/* contract can never skew.
deploy.sh rolls daemon alongside backend -- without that the service would never
be created, since a single-service deploy uses --no-deps. It also probes the
image first and skips the daemon when rolling a tag that predates the binary:
infra tracks main while image tags are env-staged, so a host can legitimately be
asked to roll an older backend image, and creating the service anyway would
leave a container crash-looping on a missing binary.
replicas: 1 with order: stop-first replaces the leader election -- Discord
permits one gateway connection per bot token.
THERMOGRAPH_INTERNAL_TOKEN is optional: both ends derive it from
THERMOGRAPH_AUTH_SECRET via HMAC under a domain-separation label, so this needs
no new vault entry. The derivation is pinned to a shared cross-language test
vector asserted on both sides, so drift fails CI instead of 401ing every call.
Fail closed when neither secret is set.
Improvements over the Python: a close intended for RESUME uses 4000 rather than
1000 (Discord invalidates a session closed 1000, so the old default defeated its
own resume); MESSAGE_CREATE runs on a bounded worker pool; and a malformed HELLO
returns an error rather than a clean reconnect, which would otherwise reset
backoff and hot-loop against the gateway.
