Replaces #43, which I opened against a branch that had already been squash-merged as #42 — so it re-proposed #42's content on top of a main that already had it, and went CONFLICTING. This is the same commit on a clean branch off current main: two files, +56 lines, docs only.

Work-Control-ID: 01a01008-16a5-7456-afa3-819c024716a7

What this records

Caught while verifying the #42 deploy, and worth writing down precisely because it looks exactly like a flaky CDN and is not one.

Origin (fastshared-web.pages.dev) ✅ new card immediately — sha256 matched local, saturation 0.157, #0f0f12 at 85.3%
Apex (fastsha.red) ❌ old card — cf-cache-status: HIT, age: 68244, old content-length

Nothing was wrong with the deploy. /og-image.png is in APP_PATH_PREFIXES (backend/src/index.ts), so routeRequest() does not proxy it to Pages — the Worker serves it from backend/src/routes/assetsPublic.ts out of caches.default with Cache-Control: public, max-age=86400, immutable.

The cache is deliberate and the code says why: it keeps Slack/iMessage/Discord unfurlers off the Pages origin on every scrape. The consequence is that a regenerated card is invisible at the apex for up to 24 hours per edge, and immutable tells scrapers not to revalidate, so anything unfurling during the window holds the old card longer still.

What it adds

web/README.md gets the two commands to compare origin against apex, the instruction to purge the URL in Cloudflare and then re-scrape in the platform's own validator (unfurlers cache separately from Cloudflare), and the underlying weakness rather than just the workaround: the cache key is ${SHORT_LINK_HOST}${pathname}, with no content or version component, so every future OG change repeats this window.

Three fixes are named — shorten CACHE_MAX_AGE_SECONDS for this one asset, key the cache on a build id, or add a purge step to web-deploy.yml, which already holds a CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN. With the caveat recorded: whether that token carries cache-purge scope has not been checked, so nobody assumes a purge step would just work.

brand/og-image.sh prints the same warning right after it installs — which is where someone will be standing when they need it.

No behaviour change. The purge itself needs dashboard access.

    • Adicionadas instruções para comparar versões, verificar cabeçalhos, limpar o cache e atualizar prévias em plataformas de compartilhamento.
  • Melhorias
    • Incluída uma mensagem pós-instalação alertando sobre o tempo de atualização da nova imagem e orientando a validação do cache.

Caught while verifying the #42 deploy. Pages served the new card immediately, but
the apex kept answering with the old one — and the cause is not a flaky CDN, it
is designed behaviour that is easy to misread.

/og-image.png is listed in APP_PATH_PREFIXES, so routeRequest() does not proxy it
to Pages; the Worker serves it from backend/src/routes/assetsPublic.ts out of
caches.default with `Cache-Control: public, max-age=86400, immutable`. That cache
exists on purpose — it keeps Slack/iMessage/Discord unfurlers off the Pages origin
on every scrape — but it means a regenerated card is invisible at the apex for up
to 24 hours per edge, and `immutable` tells scrapers not to revalidate, so anything
unfurling during the window holds the old card for longer still.

Measured at the time: origin sha256 matched the new file with saturation 0.157 and
#0f0f12 at 85.3%, while the apex returned cf-cache-status HIT, age 68244, and the
old content-length. Nothing was wrong with the deploy, which is exactly why this
needed writing down rather than retrying.

The README now carries the two commands to compare origin against apex, says to
purge the URL in Cloudflare and then re-scrape in the platform's own validator
(the unfurlers cache separately), and records the underlying weakness: the cache
key has no content or version component, so every future OG change repeats the
window. Three possible fixes are named, including that web-deploy.yml already
holds a CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN — with the caveat that its scope has not been
checked, so nobody assumes a purge step would work.

brand/og-image.sh now prints the same warning after it installs, because that is
where someone will be standing when they need it.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

Documenta que o Worker pode manter og-image.png em cache por até 24 horas. Adiciona comandos para comparar origem e apex, verificar cabeçalhos, purgar a URL no Cloudflare e revalidar a imagem.

Changes

Cache da imagem OG

Layer / File(s) Summary
Procedimentos de cache e revalidação
web/README.md, brand/og-image.sh
A documentação descreve o cache do Worker, a verificação de bytes e cabeçalhos, a purga da URL e a revalidação em plataformas de compartilhamento.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutos

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 900e3

The documentation should make URL-specific purging the standard procedure and verify that the origin and apex bodies actually match; otherwise operators may invalidate unrelated caches or mistakenly conclude that the image is synchronized. The PR remains mergeable with explicit owner follow-up on these bounded issues.

O coelho viu a imagem brilhar,
Mas o cache decidiu esperar.
Com purge e re-scrape no ar,
A nova versão vai chegar.

```bash
# origin — should be the new file straight away
curl -s https://fastshared-web.pages.dev/og-image.png | shasum -a 256
# apex — compare, and read the cache headers
curl -sI https://fastsha.red/og-image.png | grep -iE 'cf-cache-status|age|content-length'
```

If they differ, purge `https://fastsha.red/og-image.png` in the Cloudflare
dashboard (Caching → Configuration → Purge Everything, or purge by URL). Then
re-scrape in the platform's own validator, because the unfurlers cache separately
from Cloudflare.

Corrija a verificação duplicada dos bytes.

Os dois trechos calculam o hash somente da origem e usam HEAD no apex. Isso não confirma que os corpos são iguais.

Faça a purga por URL ser o procedimento padrão.

Purge Everything invalida recursos não relacionados a /og-image.png e pode gerar uma onda de cache misses. Como o objetivo é corrigir somente esta imagem, instrua o operador a usar purge by URL. Deixe Purge Everything apenas como contingência explícita.
