Prevent services accessing directly to localstorage and prefer using an astraction layer
to expose full blob. The abstraction layer (dedup services) will cover backend storage
election (local, s3, ...), encryption, etc
This change permit audio_metadata_service, media_metadaa_service, face_indexing_service to handle
blobs without worring of the backend.
note: prefered way to handle blob is the streamed way. Some services may not have this possibility
Benchmark-gated round (benches/ROUND12.md; every change ships with a
BEFORE/AFTER harness + equivalence gates, one candidate rejected by its
own bench):
DB / query shapes (bench_round12_queries):
- NC sharee search: username-only projection instead of the 21-column row
(incl. the <=512 KiB avatar) per match, + gin_trgm_ops indexes on
auth.users for the leading-wildcard ILIKE (4.98x; 54.7x with index).
- Password login: delete the redundant full-row update_user — create_session
already stamps last_login_at in its own txn (4.45x per login).
- Email-verified stamp: narrow conditional UPDATE (8.9x); OIDC repeat login
now compares profile state in memory and issues ZERO queries when nothing
changed (was: full 17-column rewrite per login).
- Refresh rotation: revoke+insert+stamp fused into one transaction via new
rotate_session port method (1.18x).
- WOPI CheckFileInfo / authorize_wopi_access: require(Read) + get_file +
check(Update) overlapped with tokio::join!, original result precedence
(cold 1.34x).
- Upload quota gate: user-envelope + drive-cap checks fused into ONE
round-trip (check_upload_quotas) — the NC chunked PUT pays this per
chunk (1.81x, 2 -> 1 queries/chunk); shared verdict evaluators keep
error shapes byte-identical.
CPU / allocs (bench_round12_micro):
- sized_json: pre-sized listing serialization replacing axum Json's 128 B
seed + doubling-realloc chain on files/folder-resources/photos/search
responses (1.40x, 13 -> 2 allocs per 500-row page; byte-identical).
- Security headers: 4 SetResponseHeaderLayer folded into the CSP middleware
pass (5 layers -> 1; 1.43x per request, -26 allocs; header set gated
byte-identical incl. 304s).
- Media capture-metadata: single-read extraction — nom-exif now parses the
buffer kamadak already read (zero-copy Bytes) and videos open once with a
kind() dispatch; per-image opens 2-3 -> 1 (1.44x warm geomean, 1.6-3.2x
cold cache; extraction outputs gated identical incl. the MIME-mislabel
track fallback).
- Chunked-upload session ops: owner gate folded into the operation's own
DashMap lookup + stack-encoded uuid compare (5 -> 3 lookups, -2 allocs,
1.28x per chunk).
Blob cache (bench_blob_cache_index + round-3 regression guard):
- CachedBlobBackend index: tokio::sync::Mutex<LruCache> -> moka::sync::Cache
with byte weigher. The mutex serialized every cached chunk read and scaled
NEGATIVELY (2.08 -> 1.07 Mops/s from 1 -> 2 readers); moka probes are
lock-free (2.17x at K=2). Byte budget now enforced by moka (manual
current_size + collect_evictions machinery deleted); eviction listener
unlinks size-evicted files only (Replaced entries keep their file —
gated). Single-flight miss gate unchanged (16 concurrent misses -> 1
fetch re-verified via the round-3 harness).
- put_blob now populates the cache BEFORE the inner backend consumes the
source file (the old order failed 100% of the time — local renames,
S3/Azure delete the source — so the first read after a whole-file put
re-downloaded from the remote); inner-put failure invalidates the entry.
Frontend (vitest gates):
- List-view thumbnails request the 150px icon rendition instead of 400px
preview into a 40px slot (~7.1x fewer pixels, ~4-5x fewer bytes per
thumbnail across list views); grid keeps preview.
Rejected by its own bench (kept as evidence in bench_round12_micro §2):
- Single-pass compression predicate: the monomorphized And-chain already
costs ~4.6 ns / 0 allocs total; the fused node measured within noise.
New migration: 20260719000000_users_search_trgm.sql (trgm indexes).
Deferred with prepared design: grouped file/grid view virtualization
(single-VirtualRows flatten, the photos pattern) — next round's headline.

Geotagged photos never appeared in Photos → Places because their GPS was
silently dropped. Capture-metadata extraction read GPS/camera/dimensions
only from kamadak-exif, which rejects many real-world EXIF blocks (phones,
photo editors, anything with a non-standard trailing IFD) with
`InvalidFormat("Unexpected next IFD")` and returns nothing. nom-exif —
already used to upgrade the capture date and far more lenient — parses those
same files fine, so only the date survived and latitude/longitude stayed
NULL.
nom-exif now also reads GPS (and the date) and `merge_image_metadata`
combines both sources:
- nom-exif's tz-correct date wins when present (unchanged behaviour);
- nom-exif's GPS only fills gaps kamadak left, so kamadak still wins when it
parsed the file (no regression);
- when kamadak fails outright, a record is still produced from nom-exif's
date/GPS instead of being discarded.
Existing photos can be backfilled via POST /api/admin/photos/metadata/reextract.

Backend — Photos timeline now groups by real capture date instead of upload time. New MediaMetadataService (FileLifecycleHook) extracts EXIF DateTimeOriginal from images and container creation_time from videos (mov/mp4/mkv) via nom-exif, timezone-correct (OffsetTimeOriginal), persisting captured_at so the existing media_sort_date trigger takes over. Adds POST /admin/photos/metadata/reextract to backfill existing media. Falls back to upload date when no embedded date exists.
Frontend — premium grid cards: combined metadata line (relative date · size, owner avatar when shared), custom selection checkbox with a clear checked state, uniform full-width 4:3 thumbnail tiles independent of filename length, centered file-type icons, and a hit-test fix so checkbox/star/kebab clicks reach the controls (the decorative thumbnail no longer captures pointer events). Notification messages internationalised across all 16 locales. Broader polish: design tokens, a11y/focus-visible states, brand + PWA assets.
Chore — bump semver-compatible dependencies (cargo upgrade); add nom-exif 3.6.1.
