Renames the project and makes it as easy to adopt as BitLogin, which was the
stated bar and which it did not previously meet.
Rename (ADR 0005): @nostr-governance/* -> @bitgate/*, governance-* elements ->
bitgate-*, createGovernanceRuntime -> createBitGate. "Governance" reads as DAO
voting to this audience and named a category rather than a product; BitGate
names the benefit and joins the bit- family that BitVid and BitRoad compose
with. Domain types keep their names — the product is BitGate, the subject
matter is still governance. The migration plan is left as written; this ADR
records the change rather than rewriting history.
Drop-in distribution (ADR 0006): adopting BitGate meant supplying a transport,
authoring a policy, and wiring every element in JavaScript. Now:
- createRelayTransport(urls) — WebSocket transport with reconnection, backoff,
subscription replay, and cross-relay dedupe
- policy presets (social, commerce, admin-only) addressable by name; the engine
still carries no thresholds of its own
- <bitgate-provider> — configuration in markup, with descendants finding the
runtime through a bubbling context event rather than DOM walking, which
breaks across shadow boundaries
- npm run build:widget — a self-contained dist/bitgate.js
That last one came from running it in a browser rather than from a test. Bare
specifiers resolve in Node and vitest but not in a browser, so the widget
source worked everywhere except a plain static page — the one place it exists
to serve. The bundle is not committed: consumers build from reviewed source.
Also found by running it: the provider's ready event fires during element
upgrade, before a page that defines elements after parsing can attach a
listener, so it now exposes `ready` as a promise too.
Four bugs fixed along the way, three found by new tests and one by the browser:
admin state stayed silent when a roster change altered capabilities but no
denials; the relay transport sent every subscription twice on connect; the
commerce preset computed a meaningless visibility verdict at checkout and could
hide a listing from its own seller; <bitgate-status> threw on an unusable
decision.
759 tests; lint, typecheck, and both builds clean.
A full-suite run failed intermittently, roughly one in six. Two causes, both
mine, both in test code rather than the library.
The performance fixture's setup repeated the same 100 mute-list writes 50 times
over with identical data — 5,000 calls where 100 give the same fixture — which
made construction expensive enough that individual tests occasionally exceeded
their timeout under load. The failures looked like assertion failures on
deterministic checks, which is what made them confusing. The fixture's shape
(5,000 targets, 500 authors, 100 muters per author, multiple categories and
contributors) is now asserted directly so it cannot silently degrade again.
The wall-clock assertion is gone. It measured the machine as much as the code —
85ms standalone versus 1606ms under vitest on the same commit — so it was flaky
rather than informative. Replaced with structural assertions that the snapshot
and its record maps are materialized once per batch, which is precisely the
regression that made a 5,000-target pass take ~47 seconds, and is deterministic.
Widget tests polled with vi.waitFor and its ~1s timeout. The async elements now
expose the in-flight promise as `pending`, so tests await completion directly.
That is also useful to hosts wanting to disable surrounding UI mid-action.
Six consecutive full-suite runs, 690 tests each, no failures.
The performance fixture the plan asks for found a real defect on its first run:
evaluation was quadratic in state size. Both the snapshot and its fingerprint
were rebuilt for every target, so each of 5,000 evaluations walked every report
and every mute list. A 5,000-target pass took ~47 seconds.
- the runtime memoizes the materialized snapshot and its fingerprint until a
store reports a change
- evaluateMany computes the fingerprint once and shares it across the batch
- decisions are cached per (profile, target); report and mute changes
invalidate only the targets they touch, while administrative, trust, policy,
and viewer changes drop the whole cache
- cached decisions are deeply frozen, since the cache hands the same object to
every caller
Same pass now takes ~85ms cold, ~6ms warm.
Adds tests/performance (5,000 targets, 500 authors, 100 muters per author) and
tests/security (one case per enumerated requirement testable at this layer).
605 tests; lint, typecheck, and the declaration build pass from a cold checkout.
