When NGIT_MAX_CONNECTIONS is unset the relay imposes no connection cap,
deferring to OS fd limits and infrastructure controls. The option remains
available for operators who want an explicit ceiling.

Add proper log level configuration following standard approach:
- CLI flag: --log-level <level>
- Environment variable: NGIT_LOG_LEVEL
- Default: info
- Supports simple levels (error, warn, info, debug, trace)
- Supports filter expressions (e.g., ngit_grasp=debug,actix_web=info)
Configuration is now consistent across all four sources:
1. src/config.rs - Config struct with log_level field
2. docs/reference/configuration.md - Full documentation
3. nix/module.nix - NixOS module with logLevel option
4. .env.example - Example configuration file
This replaces the previous RUST_LOG approach with proper integration
into the ngit-grasp configuration system, enabling trace logging from
CLI, environment variables, or NixOS configuration.

Enables relay operators to backup/archive specific GRASP servers by domain.
Includes configuration, validation, documentation, and integration tests.

Increases connection limit across all configuration sources:
- src/config.rs: default_value_t = 4096
- docs/reference/configuration.md: updated default and examples
- nix/module.nix: maxConnections default = 4096
- .env.example: updated default and comment
This allows the relay to handle more concurrent connections and reduces
the likelihood of connection exhaustion under normal load. The previous
limit of 2000 was too conservative for production deployments.

- Make RateLimit explicit in relay builder (500 subs, 60 events/min)
- Add NGIT_MAX_CONNECTIONS config option (default: 500)
- Update all 4 config locations (src, nix, docs, .env.example)
- Fix documentation error: filter limit 5000→500
- Document Phase 2 deferral decision (per-IP enforcement)
Addresses primary DoS vector (connection exhaustion) with minimal code.
Per-IP rate limiting deferred until abuse detected in production.

- Update default bind address in src/config.rs to 127.0.0.1:7334
- Update all four critical config sources per AGENTS.md:
- src/config.rs (code default and tests)
- .env.example (development template)
- docs/reference/configuration.md (user documentation)
- nix/module.nix (NixOS deployment)
- Update all documentation examples and references:
- README.md (with note about phone keypad mnemonic)
- docs/how-to/*.md (deploy, prometheus-setup, test-compliance)
- docs/explanation/*.md (architecture, comparison)
- docs/learnings/grasp-audit.md
Port 7334 spells NGIT on a phone keypad, making it memorable and
project-specific.
All tests pass (336 lib tests + 51 integration tests).

Adds NGIT_EVENT_BLACKLIST option for blocking all events from specific npubs,
taking precedence over all other validation to enable comprehensive moderation
without affecting curation policy.
Key features:
- Simple npub-only format: <npub>,<npub>,...
- Checked FIRST before any other validation (including repository blacklist)
- Blocks ALL event types (announcements, state events, PRs, comments, etc.)
- Events never reach relay storage or purgatory
- Specific rejection reason for operator debugging
Implementation:
- Add EventBlacklistConfig struct with check() method
- Add NGIT_EVENT_BLACKLIST config option and event_blacklist_config() method
- Add config field to PolicyContext for policy access
- Add check_event_blacklist() to Nip34WritePolicy
- Check event blacklist first in admit_event() method (before any other validation)
- 4 new unit tests covering all blacklist behavior
Configuration synced across all four sources:
- src/config.rs: Core implementation with EventBlacklistConfig
- .env.example: Comprehensive documentation with examples
- docs/reference/configuration.md: Complete reference documentation
- nix/module.nix: NixOS module option with environment mapping
README updates:
- Add comprehensive "Curation & Moderation" section
- Document repository whitelists (GRASP-01 and GRASP-05 modes)
- Document repository and event blacklists with precedence order
- Add configuration table for all curation/moderation settings
- Provide real-world examples for different relay configurations
Testing:
- 4 new tests for event blacklist functionality
- All 336 library tests passing
- All 64 integration tests passing
- All 38 filter support tests passing
Verification:
- Repository blacklist confirmed to apply to sync (uses same admit_event flow)
- Sync events validated through process_event_static -> write_policy.admit_event
Use cases:
- Block spam/abusive users completely
- Prevent malicious actors from submitting any events
- Temporary blocks for investigation
- Moderation without affecting whitelist curation policy

Adds NGIT_REPOSITORY_BLACKLIST option for blocking repositories, taking precedence
over all whitelists (archive and repository) to enable moderation without affecting
curation policy.
Key features:
- Three blacklist formats: <npub>, <npub>/<identifier>, <identifier>
- Blacklist checked first before any other validation
- Overrides archive whitelist and repository whitelist
- Specific rejection reasons based on match type (npub/identifier/both)
- Not flagged in NIP-11 curation (operational, not policy)
Implementation:
- Add BlacklistConfig struct with check() method returning detailed reasons
- Add NGIT_REPOSITORY_BLACKLIST config option and blacklist_config() method
- Update validate_announcement() to check blacklist first with specific reasons
- 12 new unit tests covering all blacklist behavior and precedence
Configuration synced across all four sources:
- src/config.rs: Core implementation with BlacklistConfig
- .env.example: Comprehensive documentation with examples
- docs/reference/configuration.md: Complete reference documentation
- nix/module.nix: NixOS module option with environment mapping
Testing:
- 12 new tests for blacklist functionality (config + validation)
- All 332 library tests passing
- All 38 integration tests passing
Use cases:
- Block spam/malware repos by identifier
- Block abusive users by npub
- Block specific problematic repos by npub/identifier
- Temporary blocks for investigation

Adds NGIT_REPOSITORY_WHITELIST option for curated relay operation that
accepts only whitelisted repositories while maintaining GRASP-01 compliance
(announcements must list the service). This differs from archive whitelist
which enables GRASP-05 mode and doesn't require service listing.
Key features:
- Supports three whitelist formats: npub, npub/identifier, identifier
- Enforces mutual exclusivity with archive read-only mode
- Updates NIP-11 curation field when whitelist is enabled
- Maintains GRASP-01 compliance (doesn't add GRASP-05 support)
Configuration synced across all four sources: src/config.rs, docs/reference/configuration.md,
nix/module.nix, and .env.example as required by AGENTS.md.

Implements NGIT_ARCHIVE_READ_ONLY configuration option that defaults to true
when archive mode is enabled, allowing relays to operate as read-only syncs
of archived repositories.
Key changes:
- Add NGIT_ARCHIVE_READ_ONLY config option (defaults to true if archive enabled)
- NIP-11 advertises GRASP-05 support and includes curation field when read-only
- Validation logic rejects non-whitelisted repos in read-only mode
- Comprehensive tests for read-only behavior and defaults
- Full documentation in config reference, .env.example, and NixOS module
Read-only mode enables passive mirroring without being listed in announcements,
useful for backup/archive operations while preventing accidental write acceptance.

Implements GRASP-05 specification for accepting repository announcements
that don't list this relay, enabling archive, mirror, and backup use cases.
Core Features:
- Three whitelist formats: <npub>, <npub>/<identifier>, <identifier>
- Archive-all mode for complete ecosystem mirrors
- Fail-fast npub validation at startup
- Read-only enforcement (archived repos reject pushes)
- Full GRASP-02 sync (git data + Nostr events)
- Dynamic archive status (no flags/metadata)
Implementation:
- Add ArchiveWhitelistEntry enum with Pubkey/Repository/Identifier variants
- Add ArchiveConfig with validation and matching logic
- Update AnnouncementResult to include AcceptArchive variant
- Refactor validate_announcement() to return AnnouncementResult with archive check
- Update AnnouncementPolicy with catch-all pattern for cleaner code
- Wire archive config through builder and policy layers
Configuration:
- NGIT_ARCHIVE_ALL: Accept all announcements (⚠️ storage risk)
- NGIT_ARCHIVE_WHITELIST: Comma-separated whitelist entries
- Updated docs, .env.example, and nix/module.nix
Testing:
- 28 unit tests for config parsing and whitelist matching
- 7 integration tests for archive mode validation
- All 296 tests passing
Validation Priority:
1. Lists our service → Accept (GRASP-01, read/write)
2. Is maintainer → AcceptMaintainer (multi-maintainer, read/write)
3. Matches archive config → AcceptArchive (GRASP-05, read-only)
4. None of above → Reject
Security Considerations:
- Archive-all mode has storage/bandwidth DoS risk
- Identifier-only format matches any pubkey (use npub/identifier for high-value)
- Invalid npubs cause startup failure (fail-fast)
Documentation:
- Concise explanation focused on rationale
- Reference docs updated with all config options
- README updated to reflect completed feature
- Removed from roadmap, added to compliance section
See docs/explanation/grasp-05-archive.md for details.

Add mandatory uploadpack.allowFilter capability to support partial clones
and fetches as required by GRASP-01 specification. This enables efficient
git operations for bandwidth-constrained clients (e.g., browser-based git
clients like git-natural-api).
Changes:
- Add uploadpack.allowFilter=true to git subprocess configuration
- Update SmartGitServer test helper with filter support
- Add integration tests for filter capability advertisement and functionality
- Update documentation to reflect filter as required capability
Tests verify:
- Filter capability is advertised in info/refs
- Filtered clones with blob:none work correctly
- Filtered fetches with tree:0 work correctly

Add environment variable configuration for database backend selection:
- Added DatabaseBackend enum (memory, nostrdb, lmdb) in src/config.rs
- Updated relay builder to use configured backend in src/nostr/builder.rs
- Added NGIT_DATABASE_BACKEND to .env.example with documentation
- Updated docs/reference/configuration.md with backend comparison table
NostrDB and LMDB backends prepared for future implementation when
nostr-relay-builder adds support. Currently defaults to in-memory
database with warning logs when persistent backends are selected.
