shareable links, no release flags, and a shaded sphere

[Fanoflix]

Release flags are gone

Every tool is public. VITE_RELEASED, the unlock key, the features/flags module, .env.example and the workflow env block have all been removed — nothing needs setting on the host any more.

Links are postable now

Deep links were served by 404.html. That works for a person (the client router picks the URL up) but a crawler sees a 404 and renders no unfurl at all, which made every tool link unusable in a post.

• Each route prerenders to real HTML at a 200
• Each carries its own <title>, description and OG tags — six posts unfurling with identical copy reads as spam by the third
• A 1200×630 card sits behind og:image, with twitter:card on summary_large_image instead of the small square. Source SVG kept in scripts/og-card.svg

Anti-aliasing: shaded sphere

New scene, and the new default. The silhouette is still pure coverage — supersampling does the whole job on the edge, Samples still behaves exactly as before — and only the interior is shaded from the reconstructed normal.

This forced a real change: render now returns coverage alongside the pixels, because findEdge used to infer edges from mid-grey pixels and most of a shaded sphere is mid-grey while fully covered. There's a test asserting that trap exists so it can't silently regress.

Low-res video

• Transport bar overlaid on the screen where a player's controls belong, fading in on hover and focus
• Volume is controllable; dragging the slider unmutes, dragging to zero mutes. Still muted by default
• Resize handle moved clear of the bar. Its hover state changes colour, not size — it sat flush against a scrolling container's padding edge, so scale-110 pushed it one pixel over, which summoned both scrollbars and shifted the layout

A real bug

The drop zone required a matching MIME type and silently dropped everything else. The OS frequently declines to identify a file: .mov often arrives as application/octet-stream, and files out of an archive arrive with no type at all. Both failed with nothing on screen to explain it. It now falls back to the extension when the browser hasn't actually identified the file.

Also

• Dithering opens with an image rather than an empty canvas (an original render, nothing licensed)
• AGENTS.md registration steps updated: the flag touchpoint is replaced by page meta + PRERENDERED_PATHS
