FAQ

wiki-formant

The portable half of a wiki: derived taxonomy, a spec-correct MCP transport, markdown twins, and the conditional-GET plumbing an agent surface needs.

The editor, history, sanitiser, chart and passkey modules bring their libraries as dependencies (@tiptap/*, fast-diff, sanitize-html, lightweight-charts, @simplewebauthn/*), since every wiki here uses all five. What only some apps use stays an optional peer: pg, react, jose and @radixdlt/rola for ROLA, sharp and @vercel/blob for uploads. Web-standard Request/Response, so it runs unchanged on Next route handlers, Hono, Bun, Deno and workers.

npm install wiki-formant

What this is, and what it deliberately is not

Every wiki needs a design system and a set of block types beyond the core. Those are the parts you must own: they encode your brand and your content model, and a package that tried to own them would fight you.

The page store is no longer one of them. Three wikis kept their own pages and revisions on three schemas that had drifted apart (cuid ids against int ids, a version column on one, no author on another, a tenant key on the third), and each wrote its page and its revision its own way. The tables are now the package's (prisma/wiki.prisma), and so is the SQL that reads and writes them (wiki-formant/store), so one wiki engine serves a standalone wiki and a multi-tenant host alike. The connection, the cache and the auth stay the app's.

What every wiki also needs, rebuilds by hand, and then lets drift, is the layer above: the second browsing axis derived from metadata you are already storing, the HTML→markdown converter behind every .md twin, the JSON-RPC edges that decide whether an MCP client can talk to you at all, and the ETag arithmetic that turns a recrawl into a 304.

This package was extracted from three production wikis that had each grown their own copy. By the time it was lifted, the copies had already diverged — one had lost the alphabetical index and the related-page ranking; one had ToolAnnotations the others lacked; one had MCP prompts the others lacked. Everything here is the union, with tests pinning the specific bugs that shipped.

Store

wikiStore reads and writes WikiPage and WikiRevision through one Sql function the app binds to its own client, scoped to one site.

import { wikiStore } from 'wiki-formant/store';

const store = wikiStore({
  sql: (query, ...values) => prisma.$queryRawUnsafe(query, ...values),
  siteId: '',                 // a multi-tenant app passes the site's key
  hidden: tree.hiddenPaths,   // back office: never listed unasked
});

const page = await store.get('contents/tech', 'radix-engine');
const cards = await store.list('contents/tech', { sort: 'recent' });
const { items, total } = await store.search('validators', { take: 20 });
await store.save({ tagPath, slug, content, authorId, message, baseVersion: page.version });

A save is one statement. The page update and its revision are a data-modifying CTE guarded on the version the save read. A save that lost a race writes nothing and throws a 409 HttpError; pass baseVersion and a save opened on an old version, or on a page deleted since, is refused the same way, instead of erasing the edit in between or re-creating the page. A rename onto a slug another save took meanwhile is a 409 too.
The bump is the diff's. Added, removed or moved blocks are major, changed prose or title minor; change overrides it for a script that knows better. A metadata-only save moves no version and writes no revision.
History is diffed on read. A revision stores the page as it was saved, never a diff, so a script's revision and the editor's carry the same history. history(pageId, { limit }) reads one row more than it returns, so the oldest entry shown is diffed against its real predecessor. It and revision answer only for a page of the store's own site.
Listings carry a snippet, not the article. list, recent and byIds drop content for one line of it; a category of 200 cards otherwise ships 200 block arrays.
Search is four tiers: title prefix, title, literal prose, then full text on search_tsv with Postgres' own headline as the snippet. Hidden paths are left out unless the search names one; content: true keeps each row's blocks.
A path under a hidden one is hidden too, in every listing, whether or not the tree names it.
branch is an agent's walk: a path and everything under it, newest first or A–Z, with the total a pager needs and an optional since. counts is pages per tag path, the back office and the home page left out.
Ids and timestamps default in the database, so the store's SQL and a Prisma client write the same rows. Copy the models with npx prisma-models wiki (a tenant-keyed app checks its own copy with --tenant), then build the full-text column with npx fts-ddl '"WikiPage"'.

Tree

createTree is the category tree every wiki declares, and the walks each had written by hand.

import { createTree, parseWikiPath } from 'wiki-formant/tree';

const tree = createTree(NODES, { globalKeys: [QUALITY] });
tree.resolve('contents/tech');   // { node, trail, valid, hidden, sort, mainArticle, metadataKeys }
parseWikiPath(tree, ['contents', 'tech', 'radix-engine', 'history']);
// { type: 'page', tagPath: 'contents/tech', slug: 'radix-engine', mode: 'history' }

Metadata keys accumulate down the trail; sort, mainArticle and hidden are inherited, the nearest declaration winning. A field only one wiki reads (an XRD threshold, a band) rides on the node, and the app folds it from trail.
A path that is itself a category wins over a mode suffix, so a category named history stays reachable. The empty slug is a category's hub article, and /<category>/edit edits it.
crumbs makes one crumb per URL segment, linked only where the tree knows the segment, so a trail can never be shorter than the address bar.

Category view

categoryView is a category page as radix.wiki browses one, from the tree, the taxonomy and anything that reads like the store: the count, a sort that shows only once the set needs an A–Z index (by a date key where the category declares one), the facets its select keys give, a letter that exists, and a card per visible section listing its own pages, then its sections.

import { categoryView } from 'wiki-formant/category';

const view = await categoryView({ tree, taxonomy, pages: store }, 'ecosystem', searchParams);
// { sort, total, pages, all, filters, letter, facets, letters, sortable, clearHref, sortHref, sections }

pages is the store, or the app's cached and decorated wrapper over its list and subtree.
A link carries sort only when it is not the category's own, so the bare category and its default are one address.

Wiki read tools

wikiReadTools is the read half of a wiki's MCP server over its store and tree: search_wiki, get_page, get_pages, list_pages, get_categories, get_recent_changes, get_full_corpus and get_page_history. searchWiki is the same rows for an app's plain-GET ?q= and its search page, so the three never disagree.

import { wikiReadTools, searchWiki } from 'wiki-formant/wiki-tools';

const reading = { store, tree, url: (tagPath, slug) => `${SITE}/${tagPath}/${slug}`, text: extractText, noun: 'the Radix Wiki', corpusTitle: 'Radix Wiki' };
const tools = [...wikiReadTools(reading), ...myOwnTools];
const { items, total } = await searchWiki(reading, 'validators', { page: 1, size: 20 });

Every row carries path, which every read tool takes back, and chars where the page's text was read. A pasted URL resolves, with pathPrefix stripped; a category's path reads its hub article; a miss names the nearest pages.
Every row carries the page id too, which a pageList block takes. get_page with blocks: true returns the stored blocks, the page id, its whole metadata and version: what an edit starts from. forEdit adds what the app's write tool takes beside them, and authors names each revision's author in get_page_history.
text should be the serializer the page's markdown twin uses, and resolve the resolver its page uses to fill what is read live (a page list's pages): get_page, get_pages and the default corpus read text through both, so a page reads the same over MCP as at its twin, which twinParity checks.
privateHidden closes the back office to every tool; without it a hidden page is unlisted but readable by path, as its URL is.
metadata, label, corpus, noMatch and skills are the app's: what a row adds, how a category is named, the sections get_full_corpus slices, what an empty search says, and the A2A skills.
Writes stay with each app, because who may write is the one thing no two of them agree on.

Taxonomy

tagPath puts a page in exactly one place in a tree. The select-typed metadata it already carries is a cross-cutting axis — and it is almost always stored, rendered once in an infobox as dead text, and never made pressable. The failure mode is a 141-page category rendered as one flat grid while the data to split it sits unread in a JSON column.

The tree is yours; supply getMetadataKeys and the rest is derived.

import { createTaxonomy } from 'wiki-formant/taxonomy';

const taxonomy = createTaxonomy({
  getMetadataKeys: tagPath => TAGS[tagPath]?.metadataKeys ?? [],
  href: (tagPath, { sort, filters, letter }) => /* your URL contract */,
});

const filters = taxonomy.facetFilters('ecosystem', searchParams);
const pages   = taxonomy.filterPages(allPages, filters, letter);
const facets  = taxonomy.buildFacets('ecosystem', allPages, filters, letter);
const index   = taxonomy.needsAlphaIndex(allPages.length)
  ? taxonomy.alphaIndex(allPages, filters) : [];

Four behaviours worth knowing, because each replaces a plausible wrong answer:

Each facet is counted over the set narrowed by every other active filter, so its own options stay switchable instead of collapsing to the one already chosen.
Values come from the data, not from the declared options. A key that declares four values while the pages hold seven would otherwise hide three behind a bar claiming to cover everything. Render what is there and the drift becomes visible.
A single-valued facet hides — unless it is the active one. An infobox row can set a filter the chips never offered; without its chip the reader lands on a narrowed list with nothing to press to widen it.
metadataRows returns rows, not markup. A page's populated keys in schema order, with href set exactly on the facet ones. The three wikis each rendered this selection their own way — an HTML table folded into a block, a React <aside>, a markdown twin — and differed only in how a value is formatted; which keys appear and where each links is the part they had rebuilt three times.
rankRelated ranks by shared facet values and returns the shared axis as {key, value}, so the See also heading can be the link into the filtered set. The behaviour it replaces — pages.slice(0, 5) — shows every page in a large category the same five links.

One href builder is passed in and used by every chip, letter and sort button. A sort button that drops the active filters is the tell that a project grew a second one.

The controls, not just the counts

buildFacets and alphaIndex hand back numbers; something still has to turn each one into a pressable thing with a destination. That step was rebuilt in all three wikis, and by the time this was written they no longer agreed on what the row contains: one shipped no A–Z index at all, one had no way back to the unfiltered set, and two marked the active chip with aria-pressed on an <a> — which is not a toggle button and does not take that attribute.

const state  = { sort, filters, letter: taxonomy.resolveLetter(all, filters, query.letter) };
const groups = taxonomy.facetControls('ecosystem', all, state);  // [{key, label, options}]
const letters = taxonomy.alphaControls('ecosystem', all, state); // [] below the threshold

Every control arrives as {value, label, count, href, active}, its href already built through your one builder with every other axis carried along — the arithmetic that, done by hand, drops the reader's letter the first time they press a chip.

The reset control leads the row, flagged reset, so a consumer that maps the array cannot ship a narrowed view with nothing to press to widen it.
alphaControls returns [] below the index threshold, folding in needsAlphaIndex — one call is either the index you needed or nothing, rather than a decision each caller makes and one caller forgets. A hub's sort toggle reads the same predicate over the same unfiltered count (needsAlphaIndex(all.length); 40 pages unless alphaIndexMinPages says otherwise), so a set small enough to need no index offers no sort either.
resolveLetter drops a letter no page starts with. A stray ?letter=Q would otherwise empty the grid with no control marked to explain why.

Headings

Heading ids, permalink anchors, and the list an "on this page" rail renders — one pass over the HTML you already have.

import { injectHeadingIds, headingsFrom } from 'wiki-formant/headings';

const html = injectHeadingIds(page.body);   // ids + anchors, idempotent
const toc  = headingsFrom(html);            // [{ id, text, level }]

Two behaviours worth knowing:

The slug rule is a parameter. A heading id is a live URL — readers link to #the-shape-of-a-code, and so does the page's own permalink anchor. The two wikis this was lifted from had drifted onto different rules, and unifying them would have silently moved every published anchor on whichever one lost. Pass slug to keep the rule you already ship.
Deduping is not a parameter, but its scope is. Two headings with the same text otherwise mint the same id twice, and every link to the second lands on the first. The unit that must be unique is the page, so a block wiki that injects block by block passes one used set to every call — seeded with any id the template renders itself, such as the title's. All three consumers once passed none, and a heading repeated across two blocks shipped two identical ids.

const used = new Set([slug(page.title)]);
const blocks = page.blocks.map(b => ({ ...b, text: injectHeadingIds(b.text, { used }) }));

headingsFrom reads the string, not the rendered DOM — possible only where the body IS a string at render time. A wiki whose content streams in as blocks after mount has to query the DOM, and uses only the injector.

MCP

A minimal Model Context Protocol server over Streamable HTTP, with the transport edges most implementations get wrong.

import { mcpResponse, mcpGet, mcpOptions, McpToolError } from 'wiki-formant/mcp';

const config = {
  serverInfo: { name: 'my-wiki', version: '1.4.0' },
  instructions: 'Call search_pages first; get_page needs a full path.',
  docsUrl: 'https://example.com/llms.txt',
  tools: [{
    name: 'search_pages',
    description: 'Full-text search across the wiki.',
    inputSchema: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: { q: { type: 'string', description: 'query' } },
      required: ['q'],
    },
    annotations: { readOnlyHint: true },
    handler: async ({ q }) => search(String(q)),
  }],
  onCall: (req, body) => track(req, body),
};

export const POST = (req: Request) => mcpResponse(req, config);
export const GET  = () => mcpGet(config.docsUrl);
export const OPTIONS = () => mcpOptions();

What it gets right:

A caller-fixable mistake is a tool result with isError, never -32603. Bad arguments come back naming every bad field at once, quoting the legal values and appending the schema, so one retry can fix all of them.
Capabilities advertise only what the config populates. An advertised resources whose list comes back empty reads as a bug, not as honesty. The -32601 method list narrows the same way.
A notification-only POST answers a bare 202, not a 200 carrying JSON null.
Malformed JSON is -32700 with a 400, never a 500.
GET is an explicit 405 with CORS headers. A framework's automatic 405 carries none, so a browser client cannot even read the refusal.
The preflight allow-list includes Accept and Mcp-Protocol-Version. One missing entry fails the preflight rather than the POST, which presents as "the server is down".
Batches are capped (default 20) with a teaching error, because the rate limiter charges one token per HTTP request before the body is parsed. From 2025-06-18 on they are refused outright, because that revision removed them.
Both protocol eras, one endpoint. A request carrying io.modelcontextprotocol/protocolVersion in params._meta is served as 2026-07-28: server/discover, per-request version and header validation (-32022 naming every version spoken, -32020 on a routing header that disagrees with the body), resultType and cache hints on results, and 404 for the methods that revision removed. Everything else is the legacy era, where initialize echoes the client's version when it is one of 2025-11-25, 2025-06-18, 2025-03-26 or 2024-11-05 and offers the newest otherwise. The spec permits a dual-era server, and it is the only way to adopt the new revision without failing the handshake of every client already in the field.
The A2A call an agent card invites is answered. Every card names this endpoint as its JSON-RPC url, so message/send (v0.3) and SendMessage (v1.0) get a message back: the result of the tool answer names ({ tool: 'search_wiki', argument: 'query' }), or instructions and the tool names without one. The task methods are , since no task is ever created; streaming and push are .

Structured output, `_meta`, and the envelope gate

Every object a handler returns comes back as structuredContent beside the text block, so a client reads the answer rather than scraping prose for it. This used to be gated on declaring an outputSchema, and the result was that across four live servers and thirty-two tools — every one of them answering in JSON — not a single response ever carried it. outputSchema remains the stronger contract, because a client validates against it; it is no longer the price of admission. A handler returning a string is left alone.

inputSchema.requireOneOf names a set of which at least one must be present. required cannot express "query or popular", so the one tool needing it checked in its handler and the caller learned at execution time — the single class of argument mistake this module was otherwise catching before dispatch.

A handler's second argument is its context:

handler: async (args, ctx) => {
  ctx.meta;                                      // params._meta, as it arrived
  ctx.setMeta('x402/payment-response', receipt); // rides back on result._meta
  return { hits: 2 };
}

config.gate is envelope-level middleware: it may withhold entries before dispatch and merge its own responses back afterwards. A payment gate has to sit there rather than in a handler, because the demand replaces the call and the receipt rides on the envelope. RpcRequest and toolText are exported for a gate to build with; acuiq2's x402 gate is the one that does.

Tool arguments and the corpus tool

readArgs reads a tool's raw arguments as typed, clamped values and records every value it had to override, so a result can say adjustments: [{ param: 'limit', requested: -4, used: 1, … }] instead of silently answering a different question. Defaults belong in the tool description; the result echoes only overrides.

wiki-formant/corpus is the arithmetic behind a get_full_corpus tool: a sizeOnly preflight with per-branch and largest-page breakdowns, then page-aligned slices under a maxChars budget (CORPUS_BUDGET) with truncated, nextSkip and clippedPage. The corpus itself — which rows, how a page becomes a section — is the wiki's; sliceCorpus takes the sections it builds.

Conformance

wiki-formant/conformance is the half of an MCP conformance run that is not about any one server's tools: a JSON-RPC client that backs off on a 429, the transport assertions (CORS preflight, GET→405, a notification answering 202 with no body, -32700, the batch cap, honest capabilities, version negotiation), version coherence across every descriptor a surface publishes, A2A card parity, conditional-GET and robots checks, and a pass/fail table with an exit code.

const t = createTester({ base: 'https://example.com', clientName: 'my-mcp-test' });
await transportChecks(t, 'my-mcp-test');
await annotationChecks(t, { writes: ['create_page'] });
await payloadBudget(t, [{ name: 'search', args: { query: 'x' } }]);
process.exit(t.summary());

What stays in your repo is fixtures: which tools you expect, what a good answer from each looks like, and which text surfaces you publish. payloadBudget weighs every listed call and every read-only tool that takes no required arguments, because the one tool nobody thought to list is the one that answers with 3.3 MB; pass a per-call maxBytes for a bulk-export tool that is deliberately large. It also asserts that a JSON answer arrived with structuredContent.

The drift checks hold an MCP server to what its own site does, so a tool cannot describe, accept or return something the site does not:

manifestParity(t, { writeAuth? }): /.well-known/mcp.json is tools/list tool for tool, names the endpoint under test, and states write auth only where a write tool is listed (both ways, given writeAuth).
rowParity(t, label, mcp, rest): a tool's answer and the GET API's or ?q= page's are identical, and not both empty.
twinParity(t, label, twinUrl, text): a read tool's text is the page's markdown twin, past its frontmatter and the title line.
editReadChecks(t, { path, rows?, validate?, endpoint? }): rows carry page ids, get_page with blocks: true returns blocks the site's own validate accepts and a version, and get_page_history's newest revision is that version.
roundTrip(t, label, { read, write }): what a read tool hands out, the write tool takes back unchanged, and the next read matches.
openapiWriteParity(t, [[path, method, tool], …]): every field an OpenAPI write documents, the matching tool takes.
rolaOriginCheck(t): a challenge tool's ROLA recipe names the origin under test.
freshAfterWriteChecks(t, urls, write, { shows?, gone? }): each URL is read, write runs, and each then carries shows and not gone. It catches a twin or llms.txt the CDN keeps past the save that changed it, which every check that reads a surface once passes. Run it against a deployment: with no CDN in front it passes trivially.

standardVersionSources(t, openapiPaths) is the versionCoherence map every S10 surface serves — both agent-card paths, mcp.json, the server card and each path the OpenAPI document answers at — so a suite names only the paths it adds. t.rpcAt(endpoint, …) and t.callAt drive a second MCP endpoint on the same surface with the same backoff, User-Agent and tally.

await versionCoherence(t, server.version, standardVersionSources(t, ['/openapi.json', '/api/openapi.json']), init.result?.serverInfo?.version);

descriptorChecks(t) defaults to S10_DESCRIPTORS, the six JSON descriptors every surface here serves.

Markdown twins

Pass an etag and answer notModified before rendering: a twin is the single most recrawled URL a page has, so a twin with no validator is a full render on every pass, forever — the same arithmetic that justifies the corpus ETag, applied per page.

htmlToMarkdown preserves the structure an agent cites by — headings, lists, tables, code, emphasis — rather than flattening to prose. Tables convert first so the generic rules cannot eat their markup, ordered lists number per list, pipes inside cells are escaped, and a headerless table gets a synthesised header because GFM has no other form.

import { htmlToMarkdown, markdownDocument } from 'wiki-formant/markdown';

return new Response(
  markdownDocument(
    { title: page.title, url, updated: page.updatedAt, lastVerified: page.lastVerifiedAt,
      license: { spdx: 'CC-BY-4.0', url: 'https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/' } },
    blocksToMarkdown(page.content), // your block types, your function
  ),
  { headers: markdownHeaders(lastModified, { etag, noindex: true }) },
);

noindex sends X-Robots-Tag: noindex, for a twin of an HTML page: a search engine that reads it has the page already. A document with no HTML page, an AGENTS.md, leaves it off.

Put cacheTagHeaders(tags) in extra, with the tags your save path already revalidates. A route handler is held at Vercel's CDN by its s-maxage alone, so without Vercel-Cache-Tag the twin outlives every save by its edge window while the ISR page beside it is fresh. The same goes for llms.txt, a search index and a sitemap: any text an agent reads back after writing.

headers: markdownHeaders(lastModified, { etag, noindex: true, extra: { ...VARY_ACCEPT, ...cacheTagHeaders(pageTag(path)) } })

Block trees stay in your app — every project owns its own type set. Give this module HTML and it gives you markdown.

A trap worth naming: if you serve twins via a rewrite, Next drops the destination query string. The rewrite must carry the .md extension through to the destination path, or the twin silently serves JSON.

Conditional GET

llms.txt and the markdown twins are the most-recrawled URLs a wiki serves, and a corpus export the most expensive to render. Without a corpus-derived ETag, every AI crawler pays full price on every pass, forever.

A URL that answers JSON or markdown by Accept asks wantsMarkdown(request) and sends VARY_ACCEPT on both branches. Without the Vary, a shared cache hands one client the other's format.

import { corpusEtag, notModified, textHeaders } from 'wiki-formant/http';

const etag = corpusEtag([pageCount, newestUpdatedAt]);
const lastModified = newestUpdatedAt.toUTCString();

export async function GET(request: Request) {
  return notModified(request, etag, lastModified)
    ?? new Response(buildCorpus(), { headers: textHeaders(etag, lastModified) });
}

descriptorResponse and descriptorHandler serve a JSON descriptor (an agent card, a manifest, an OpenAPI document) with its own ETag and Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, since every descriptor is public and browser agents read them; six of nine routes had passed the header by hand.

corpusValidatorsFrom(seed, stamps) is that pair from an aggregate: the newest of stamps (the epoch when every one is null), appended to seed for the tag. corpusRoute(validators, build) is the whole handler, and skips the build on a 304.

const agg = await prisma.page.aggregate({ _count: true, _max: { updatedAt: true } });
corpusValidatorsFrom([depth, agg._count], [agg._max.updatedAt]);

Route errors

json, errors and handleRoute are the answers a route handler gives when it is not answering with data, as web-standard Responses a Next handler returns as they are. Every error body is { error, ...extra }: one origin had these helpers, one had a second convention with a third copy inside a single route, and two answered with whatever Response.json was nearest, so one mistake came back three ways depending on the origin.

import { errors, handleRoute, HttpError } from 'wiki-formant/http';

export const GET = (req: Request) => handleRoute(async () => {
  const q = new URL(req.url).searchParams.get('q');
  if (!q) return errors.badRequest('q is required');
  if (q.length > 200) throw new HttpError(400, 'q is too long', { code: 'INVALID_PARAMS' });
  return Response.json(await search(q));
}, 'Search failed');

A thrown HttpError answers with its own status and message. Anything else thrown is logged and answered with a 500 carrying only errorMsg, so an exception's text — a database error naming a table — never reaches the caller. errors.tooManyRequests(sec) states Retry-After.

Response headers

wiki-formant/headers holds the six headers every route sends and the Content-Security-Policy they share, for next.config.ts to import:

import { contentSecurityPolicy, securityHeaders } from 'wiki-formant/headers';

const csp = contentSecurityPolicy({ 'connect-src': ["'self'", 'https://*.radixdlt.com'] });

const nextConfig = {
  async headers() {
    return [{ source: '/:path*', headers: securityHeaders(process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production' ? csp : null) }];
  },
};

Four configs had restated these by hand on the grounds that a config could not import an ESM-only package. It could not because no subpath had a default condition, and Next resolves a config's imports the way require does; every subpath has one now, and Node 24 loads the module there unchanged.

withWikiDefaults(config, { csp }) wraps the whole config: the headers on every route with csp enforced in production, AVIF before WebP from the image optimiser, Turbopack's build cache off (Vercel restored a stale one and shipped a stylesheet two commits old), and distDir from STUDIO_DIST_DIR for radix-studio's second dev server. What the app sets wins, and its own headers() follow these.

export default withWikiDefaults<NextConfig>({ async redirects() { /* … */ } }, { csp });

contentSecurityPolicy starts from the policy all four origins shared line for line, and each directive passed replaces its default rather than appending, so the call site reads as the whole list. An empty list drops a directive.

The default frame-src is DEFAULT_IFRAME_HOSTS, the same list the sanitiser's iframeHosts defaults to. The sanitiser's comment had asked every config to keep the two matched by hand, and one did not: its policy lacked the bare youtube.com and youtube-nocookie.com its sanitiser kept, so those embeds survived cleaning and then rendered blank. A site with its own host list passes it to the sanitiser and states the same hosts in its frame-src.

Pagination and versioning

parsePagination clamps page ≥ 1 and pageSize to 1–100; paginatedResponse always carries totalPages. Reshaping that response is a breaking change to every client that pages, which is why it lives here rather than being re-typed per repo.

parseVersion / bump handle revision semver tolerantly — a page always has a version, even when the column holds null or junk.

React

wiki-formant/react is the one part that needs React, so it is the one part behind its own subpath, and React is an optional peer. What is shared is behaviour; every class name and icon is passed in, because these wikis style their rails differently and always will.

SidebarProvider / useSidebar hold the rail's collapse state — remembered across loads, defaulted from the viewport only when the reader has never chosen. Pair it with sidebarBootScript from wiki-formant/sidebar (framework-free, so a server component can stamp it into <head>) or a remembered-closed rail paints open and animates shut on every load. TableOfContents is the "on this page" list, with scroll-spy, reading either headings you already know or the rendered article.

The rail's breakpoint is necessarily known twice — matchMedia here, a media query in a stylesheet — because a media query cannot read a JS constant and a JS constant cannot read a media query. base.css holds the CSS half: with RailShell prefix="wiki-sidebar" inside a .wiki-layout beside a .wiki-layout__main, the rail is a sticky column from 1024px and, below it, a drawer stacked above the article that the same open/closed choice shows or removes, table of contents included. 1024 is the default breakpoint of SidebarProvider and sidebarBootScript, so a wiki on base.css's rail passes none. It is measured: an 18rem rail, a full --measure of prose (63ch of Inter is 636px) and the page gutters need 972px, and 1024 is the gutter tier above that. The site supplies --rail-top (what the sticky rail clears), --rail-border (the rule beside the column, which becomes the drawer's foot) and the surface, padding and gap.

What the two halves can be stopped from doing is parting in silence. base.css sets --rail-floating: 1 inside its media query, and the hook checks the two agree on every breakpoint crossing, in development, naming both sides and the number to change. A wiki that lays its rail out itself opts in the same way:

@media (max-width: 767px) {          /* the edge of breakpoint={768} */
  :root { --rail-floating: 1; }
  .sidebar { /* … however this wiki lays its rail out */ }
}

Without the property the check stays quiet, since a package cannot require CSS it does not ship. The mechanism is railBreakpointMismatch and readRailFloating from wiki-formant/sidebar, both exported, the first pure.

useTypeahead is the search field's state machine. Five surfaces across the three wikis had three implementations and no two agreed on what a search field does; this is their union, because each had a piece the others lacked:

const { query, setQuery, items, highlight, setHighlight, onKeyDown, reset } =
  useTypeahead({ fetch: searchPages, onPick: page => router.push(page.href) });

A request-id guard, so a slow response cannot paint over a newer one. Two of the five surfaces had none: type fast enough and you are reading results for a query you have already replaced.
Keyboard navigation. Two surfaces had none — including the header dropdown of a wiki whose search is its primary navigation.
Abort and a per-query cache, which only the third had. The cache is per mount, so a stale result cannot outlive the page.

fetch must be referentially stable; it is an effect dependency. Its signal is optional to implement — forward it from a REST fetcher, ignore it in a server action.

useLinkPreview is the Wikipedia-style hover card: one delegated listener rather than a component per link, which is what makes it viable over an article holding hundreds of anchors. Two wikis had written the same ninety lines — same intent delay, same grace period for the cursor to cross into the card, same clamp arithmetic, same cache. They differed in three things, and those three are the options: which anchors are eligible, what fetches a preview, and how tall the card is.

useSnapRow is a carousel as a row scrolled sideways under scroll-snap-type: x mandatory, so a finger swipes it with no script; AcuiQ's protocol card, which swapped one point for the next in state, could not be swiped at all. The hook is the rest: step for arrows and arrow keys, wrapping round at either end, go(i) for a dot or for opening a lightbox on the picture clicked, and at for the counter. It ships no markup and no class names, since miow's rows hold pictures and AcuiQ's hold whole acupoints.

const { ref, onScroll, at, step, go } = useSnapRow();
<div ref={ref} onScroll={onScroll} className="row">{items}</div>

useClickOutside is fifteen lines and was in all three. Only one had the offsetParent check, and without it a container hidden at the current breakpoint still answers outside-clicks — so on a phone, a tap anywhere dismisses the popover the reader is looking at, because the hidden desktop copy got there first.

useUnsavedChanges(dirty) asks before an edit with unsaved changes is left: the browser's own prompt on a reload or a closed tab, and the confirmLeave() it returns for a Back link or Cancel, which a client-side navigation never sends through beforeunload. If a save leaves by a full page load, pass false once it has landed, or the save's own exit asks. useSaveShortcut(save) binds ⌘S and Ctrl+S, reading save when the key is pressed. useSearchShortcut(open) is Wikipedia's "/" to search, ignored while the reader types in a field: open focuses the field or opens what holds it, and returns false to leave the key alone, which focusShown(input) does for a field hidden at this width.

The listbox contract

useTypeahead shared the state machine across five surfaces and left the ARIA behind, so all five drifted into different wrongness: one put aria-selected on a plain <button>, which is not a role that takes it; one gave the rows role="option" and the container no role="listbox", so the options had no owner; two had no roles at all; one used a data-highlighted attribute, which nothing reads. None of the five set aria-activedescendant, which is the attribute that announces the highlighted row as the reader arrows through it.

const { items, highlight, setHighlight, combobox } = useTypeahead({ fetch, onPick });
const { inputProps, listProps, optionProps } = combobox();

<input {...inputProps} />
<ul {...listProps}>
  {items.map((item, i) => (
    <li key={item.id} {...optionProps(i)} onMouseEnter={() => setHighlight(i)}>…</li>
  ))}
</ul>

aria-activedescendant is omitted, never emptied. An id resolving to no element is worse than no attribute: the field claims an active option and the reader announces nothing.
combobox(listKey) takes a key because one hook often feeds two rendered lists — a header with a desktop field and a mobile one puts both in the same document, and a single id set duplicates every option id.

The arithmetic is wiki-formant/combobox, which imports nothing, so the rules are unit-tested without a DOM.

SortHeader is the React half of sortTables: spread useTableSort's headerProps(key) onto it and it renders a <th aria-sort> holding a <button>, the markup sortTables writes into stored tables, so one stylesheet rule draws both arrows. One of the copies it replaced put onClick on the cell, which no keyboard can reach.

useBlockOperations(blocks, setBlocks, { duplicate }) is the five list edits every block editor makes, with ref-stable callbacks, and BlockActions is their button bar — every button named, the moves disabled at the ends, clicks kept from bubbling into a row that selects on click. useRevisionRestore(restore, { onRestored }) confirms, restores and reports an error; restoreViaPost(endpoint) is the restore for a wiki whose route takes { revisionId }. Of the three restores it replaced, one asked no confirmation and one dropped a failure silently.

Server components

wiki-formant/react carries 'use client', and that is a module-level boundary: anything exported from it hydrates in the consumer's tree whether or not it uses a hook. wiki-formant/react-server is the same React, without the directive — for the parts of a wiki that are pure functions of their props and should ship no JavaScript at all.

FacetBar renders the rows createTaxonomy already produces. This is why the taxonomy exports a rows model rather than markup: the rows could always cross the boundary and, until this subpath existed, the markup could not, so all three wikis hand-rendered it and two put aria-pressed on an <a>. Breadcrumbs renders the trail and its BreadcrumbList JSON-LD together, because a trail whose structured data is written somewhere else is a trail that will one day disagree with its own markup — which is the case Google penalises. It takes a base origin: structured-data URLs must be absolute and a package cannot know the site. FacetBar takes a count class to render each count as its own element, and alphaFirst to lead with the A–Z row. A chip row above the grid and a panel beside it are the same markup laid out by different stylesheets, so the class names are what tell them apart: letterRow, letterControl and letterControlActive style the A–Z row apart from the facet rows (each falls back to row, control or controlActive); a text class wraps each label in its own element and gives a facet option its value as title, so a long value can truncate while its count stays in view; and letterCounts="title" keeps each letter a bare glyph with its count in the tooltip. With none of them set the markup is what it was. Its JSON-LD goes out through JsonLd, which is exported for every other payload a page emits: it re-encodes each < as \u003c, because these payloads carry authored titles and an authored </script> would otherwise close the tag.

Pager is the "← Previous · Page 2 of 9 · Next →" line, for paged results and for a carousel. Pass href and the steps are links (pair it with paginatedResponse's page and totalPages); pass onPage and they are buttons, wrap stepping round from either end as a snap row does. A step with nowhere to go stays in place, inert, so the count never jumps sideways, and spread puts the steps at the ends of the line. noun names what a page is ("Point 2 of 21", "Previous point"). SnapDots is a snap row's dots: with onGo (useSnapRow's go) each is a named button, without it they only count and are hidden from assistive technology. Three sites had written the pager by hand, each stopping at the ends differently, and two had drawn their own dots around the shared hook. base.css lays both out; the colours are the site's, the dots' through --snap-dot and --snap-dot-on.

RailShell stays in wiki-formant/react, because it calls useSidebar and genuinely is a client component. It renders the rail's landmark, its scroll wrapper and the three collapse states — including the --instant class that keeps a remembered-closed rail from animating shut on first paint, and the close-on-navigate that a mobile drawer needs. Only a followed link closes it: a search field or a table-of-contents entry inside the drawer leaves it open. Compose your own rail inside it and mark the active link with isRailLinkActive; all three wikis do, and the pre-composed component that used to sit here had one consumer and had already lost both of those behaviours.

FacetSummary is the line under the facet bar — how much of the section is showing, and a Clear link when anything is narrowed — with the filtered-empty and empty-section states. RelatedPages is the see-also list: a labelled <aside> over a <ul>, its heading linked to the set rankRelated found in common. InfoboxAside is the facts panel's named landmark with its "Part of a series on" line, and InfoboxFacts renders metadataRows as a row-headed table. That table was an HTML string in two wikis, injected as a fake content block; one re-escaped a " before each href by hand and the other did not. As React nodes there is nothing to escape. formatFactValue is its default cell: a date as its day, a URL or bare domain as an outbound link, <br>-separated values as lines.

All three take the router's link component as a prop:

import Link from 'next/link';
<FacetBar link={Link} facets={facets} letters={letters} />

There is no next peer dependency here and there is not going to be one, but a rail that falls back to a bare <a> turns every press into a full page load — which is the whole reason a wiki has a persistent rail. So the router arrives through the door.

AI crawlers

Every wiki kept this roster twice — once in the proxy, keyed by user-agent, to count an AI Bot Visit; once in robots.ts, as the agents that get their own group. Both copies were byte-identical across three repos, and they were different lists.

import { trackAiBot, crawlerRules } from 'wiki-formant/crawlers';

trackAiBot(request, event, () => import('@/lib/track'));   // in proxy.ts: whether it counted
const rules = crawlerRules({ allow: '/', disallow, aiAllow });

Only one direction of that difference was deliberate: Applebot-Extended never fetches a page, so it belongs in robots and not in the matcher. The other direction was not. Bytespider, CCBot, cohere-ai, Claude-Web and Meta-ExternalFetcher were matched by every proxy and named by no robots.txt — and a crawler obeys only its most-specific matching group, so an agent with no group of its own falls through to *. Three wikis were measuring five crawlers they had never addressed.

Every agent group also allows the agent surface — /api/mcp, /llms.txt, /openapi.json, /.well-known/ — without being told. aiAllow is what an origin serves beyond that.

crawlerRules returns every group robots.txt needs: the wildcard, one per AI crawler, and one for each search engine. Search engines get the HTML site and none of its twins — /*.md$ always, plus searchDisallow — because the * group keeps the machine surface open to agents, and for Google a twin is a page it already has. Two origins wrote that group by hand and the third never did, so Google crawled its twins. The <Link> prefetch payload (?_rsc=) is refused in every group.

trackAiBot(request, event, load) counts an AI Bot Visit inside event.waitUntil: a crawler on the roster wherever it goes, and anything but a search engine that asks for what only agents read (a .md twin or Accept: text/markdown, the llms exports, /openapi.json, /.well-known/), since most agents are on no roster. Its user agent is kept, so digest can name it. load is a dynamic import because the tracker pulls in a database client, which a static import would load for every request the proxy sees.

IndexNow

Bing, Yandex, Seznam, Naver and Yep take a POST of changed URLs instead of waiting to recrawl. The indexnow bin reads an origin's live sitemap and posts the rows whose lastModified falls inside the window, so the editor, the MCP write tools and the sweep scripts that write straight to the database are all covered with no hook in any of them. It runs where the sweeps run, never as a cron on the host: a submission costs the origin one sitemap render and no scheduled function. The sitemap must render per request. A cached one froze at the last deploy and listed none of the pages edited since, so this bin submitted nothing.

The key is public by design, since an engine checks it by fetching /<key>.txt. The file in the app's public/ is the only copy, and the bin finds it there, so run it from the app's root. It checks that the live origin serves the key before posting anything.

npx indexnow https://radix.wiki              # rows modified in the last 24 hours
npx indexnow https://radix.wiki --hours 6
npx indexnow https://radix.wiki --all        # every row: a new origin or a new key

Rows with no lastModified go only in a full submission. A 403 or 422 from the engine exits 1. A sitemap index is read one level down, as check-pages reads it.

Page metadata

wiki-formant/metadata's pageMetadata builds a page's canonical, markdown-twin alternate, Open Graph and Twitter card from one input. Next replaces those objects per route segment rather than merging them, and fills a missing twitter card from openGraph only when no twitter object was inherited — so under a layout that sets its own card, a page that sets one and forgets the other shows the layout's. Two wikis wrote a helper around that, covering different halves.

export const generateMetadata = () => ({
  title,
  ...pageMetadata({ title, description, url, type: 'article', image: ogImageUrl(title), siteName, handle, markdownTwin: true }),
});

The schema.org nodes sit beside it, because they state the same facts to a different reader. articleLd requires image — two of three wikis shipped articles without one while their og:image named a card — so pass it the card pageMetadata got. collectionLd is an index page over an ItemList, and citationsFromReferences turns a references block into Article.citation.

<JsonLd data={articleLd({ headline: title, url, image, published, modified, publisher: { '@id': `${SITE_URL}/#organization` }, citation: citationsFromReferences(refs) })} />

questionPairs(html) reads a page's FAQ out of its own headings: every h2/h3 ending in ?, answered by the text beneath it. It never rewrites a statement heading as a question, so a page earns FAQPage by being written as one. faqPageLd(pairs, url) is that node, or null under two pairs, and takes an authored list just as well.

const faq = faqPageLd(questionPairs(html), url);
{faq && <JsonLd data={faq} />}

describe(text) is a page's meta description from any prose, HTML, markdown or plain: tags, entities, link targets and bare URLs go, and the rest fits DESCRIPTION_LIMIT (160) as whole sentences where they fill half of it, else cut at a word with an ellipsis. Four sites had four rules, one cutting mid-word at 150 and one slicing at 160 with no mark. openingText(blocks) (wiki-formant/text) is what a page without an excerpt is described by: its first top-level content block with prose once the headings are out, since a page that opens with an infobox would otherwise be described by its metadata table.

const description = describe(page.metadata?.excerpt || openingText(page.content));

sitePageMetadata({ siteName, handle }) binds the three fields Next drops from every page that sets its own card, with locale defaulting to en_US. siteGraphLd is the Organization, WebSite (with its SearchAction) and WebAPI as one @graph for the root layout, every node carrying an @id, and siteRefs(url) hands out the same ids for a page's publisher and isPartOf — so no page writes an inline copy of the publisher that can disagree with the layout's.

export const card = sitePageMetadata({ siteName: SITE_NAME, handle: '@example' });
export const SITE = siteRefs(SITE_URL);
<JsonLd data={siteGraphLd({ name, url: SITE_URL, logo, sameAs, searchUrl, api })} />

Social cards

wiki-formant/og is the card at /og, as the element next/og's ImageResponse takes. SocialCard is the frame: an eyebrow, a title fitted with describe, anything under it, then the description and the site's mark along the foot, bottom-aligned on a 1200×630 field. The field and the art are arguments, because they were all that differed: two wikis had each written the same seeded gradient with translucent circles, which is bubbles(rand, { field, colors }), and a third draws its own art and passes it as art. cardRandom(...text) seeds either from the page, so one page always draws the same card. OG_SIZE and OG_HEADERS (a day at the CDN, a week stale) go on the response.

const rand = cardRandom(title, eyebrow);
const { background, art } = bubbles(rand, { field: [BG, NAVY], colors: [GREEN, ORANGE] });
return new ImageResponse(<SocialCard {...{ title, eyebrow, description, background, art }} mark="example.org" colors={{ text, muted, accent }} fontFamily="Inter" />, { ...OG_SIZE, headers: OG_HEADERS, fonts: await fonts });

Fonts stay with the site: Next traces a font file into the function only from a literal path in the app's own code, and satori reads TTF or OTF, never the woff2 next/font serves. The frame never sets a style key to undefined, which satori throws on rather than skipping; scrim darkens the foot for art that is a photograph.

Revisions

What changed between two versions of a page, and therefore which semver bump to ask for. Both wikis had written it and extractBlocks was byte-identical between the copies; they differed only in what each had learned since.

const diff = computeRevisionDiff({
  currentVersion: page.version,
  oldContent, newContent, oldTitle, newTitle,
  // containers: defaults to coreBlockGroups — `columns.i.blocks` and an infobox's `blocks`
});

Blocks match by id, so a block that moved is one moved and not a removal plus an addition.
Container keys are never diffed as attributes. They are walked as their own entries, and comparing them here would report an infobox as edited every time anything inside it changed — turning a prose edit into a structural bump.
The path segment is part of the contract, because root.1.columns.0.blocks.2 is what a reviewing UI anchors on. A wiki with a container beyond the core two passes its own containers and says how it is addressed.

One copy also built two Maps keyed by a recursive JSON.stringify of every block, on every save, and never read either one. Matching is by id and always was. That half is not here.

History

What each revision changed, as a history view shows it. revisions stays free of dependencies because every save imports it; this is the reading half, and it needs fast-diff.

import { withChanges } from 'wiki-formant/history';
import { RevisionChanges } from 'wiki-formant/react-server';

const rows = withChanges(revisionsNewestFirst); // each row needs its `content`
<RevisionChanges changes={rows[0].changes} label={type => BLOCK_LABELS[type]} />

Diffed on the server, from stored content. radix-wiki used to send both HTML bodies of every modified block to the browser and diff them there: 887 KB of payload for a 13-revision page whose drawn diffs came to 25 KB. A row leaves withChanges without its content.
Words, not letters. Semantic cleanup is on, so a rewritten sentence reads as the old words struck and the new ones added.
Leaves only. A container's own entry restates its children. A leaf whose type changed is a replacement and gets no text diff. leafText names the prose field of a block beyond the core content one.
A window diffs against what precedes it. The oldest row is diffed against an empty page, so fetch one revision more than you show and drop the last row.

RevisionChanges marks struck and added text as <del> and <ins> and keys each change on data-action; base.css only resets the list.

Feeds

Three repos, four feeds, 47 of 64 significant lines identical — including, verbatim in two of them, the comment explaining why the apostrophe escapes numerically. feedResponse is the union.

export const GET = async (request: Request) => feedResponse(request, channel, await items());

feedResponse renders the channel and answers a conditional GET: the ETag is the XML's own, Last-Modified the build date. All four feeds used to return the XML bare, so a poller could never be told the channel was unchanged.

lastBuildDate comes from the newest item, not the clock. One copy stamped new Date() on every request, telling every poller the feed had changed when it had not — the recrawl the conditional-GET helpers exist to prevent. An empty feed carries no build date rather than a fictional one.

Sitemaps

treeSitemap(pages, { sections, sectionRow, pageRow }) returns the rows a wiki's tree adds to its sitemap: a row per section, dated by the newest page at or beneath it, then a row per page, dated by its own updatedAt. All three wikis listed their sections, and each dated them differently. One used the newest page beneath, one did the same from a derived tree, and one used no date at all. A section with no page beneath it carries no date rather than an invented one.

...treeSitemap(pages, {
  sections: tagPrefixes(pages.map(p => p.tagPath)),
  sectionRow: path => ({ url: `${SITE_URL}/wiki/${path}`, changeFrequency: 'weekly', priority: 0.6 }),
  pageRow: p => ({ url: pageUrl(p), changeFrequency: 'weekly', priority: 0.7 }),
}),

Every URL appears once. An empty-slug page is its section's own article, so it dates the section and gets no row of its own. A section whose URL a page already holds is served as that page, so the section row is dropped. tagPrefixes lists every path at or above the given ones, for a wiki whose sections are wherever its pages sit rather than a configured list. Which sections exist, the URLs, and each row's frequency and priority stay with the caller.

Licence declarations

S10 wants a licence on every surface, and each repo satisfied that by writing the same block again. What is genuinely per-project is the scope — which half of a site the grant covers and what it excludes — so that is the parameter.

const license = ccBy40({ siteName: 'AcuiQ', siteUrl: SITE_URL });
const block = licenseBlock({ license, scope: 'The protocol compilation and prose', excludes });

The same License goes to agentCard({ license, licenseScope }) and to openApiLicense(license) for a spec's info.license. The three cards and three specs here had each projected it differently, one from a hand-typed name.

The X account

A site names its X account in five places: the footer link, the JSON-LD sameAs, llms.txt, AGENTS.md and the MCP initialize instructions. Written by hand, one repo's sameAs still pointed at twitter.com, and only one site told an agent the account existed. wiki-formant/social builds all five from the handle and a fragment saying what the account posts.

export const X = xAccount({ siteName: 'AcuiQ', handle: '@acu_iq', posts: "a named trial's prescription with its citation" });

X.url goes to sameAs, X.handle to sitePageMetadata, followLines(X) into llms.txt and AGENTS.md, and followNote(X) into the MCP instructions. The note tells an agent to give the link to the person it is helping, since an agent cannot follow an account. The footer is <a {...followLinkProps(X)}>{X.label}</a>, whose rel="me" confirms the sameAs claim from the page the account points back at.

Rendered-article passes

wiki-formant/dom holds what runs against an article element after it is in the document. Not React, so not in react.tsx.

addCopyButtons(el);            // every <pre> gets one, once
sortTables(el);                // every column-headed table sorts by its headers
hydrateTweetEmbeds(el);        // placeholders get a live src
const off = onTweetResize((h, source) => sizeTweetEmbed(el, h, source));

addCopyButton was byte-identical in two BlockRenderers, down to the SVG path data. Its idempotence guard now lives inside the function rather than in a pre:not(:has(…)) at the call site, where it can be — and was — retyped.

In React, useArticlePasses(ref, [blocks]) (wiki-formant/react) runs them all, the embed pair included, and typesets maths: renderMath (also wiki-formant/react, since its stylesheet import cannot sit in a module server code reaches) sets $$…$$ and \[…\] as a display and $…$ inline. KaTeX is an optional peer: an app installs katex, and a page with no delimiter never fetches it. There is no single-$ delimiter, since prose writes $XRD. Three renderers had the effect written out and disagreed on its dependencies: two ran once on mount, so a page swapped in without a remount kept its old tables unsortable.

activateTabGroups turns stored [data-tabs] markup into a working tab group. The editor persists tabs as nested divs, which is the right thing to store — it survives a markdown twin, a plain HTML render and a reader with JavaScript off, all of which show every tab in order. Making one of them pressable is a reader-side job, and it sits beside the other passes rather than inside a component.

sortTables makes the tables stored in article HTML sortable by their headers. They arrive as a string a dangerouslySetInnerHTML wrote, so React never sees their rows and cannot sort them. A column is dates if every filled cell starts with one, numbers if every one does, and text otherwise — one stray value makes the whole column text, which beats sorting half of it by one rule and half by another. A third press restores the author's order, which is often chronological or ranked and otherwise needs a reload. Label/value tables and tables with merged cells are left alone. The markup it writes — aria-sort on the cell, a .sort-header button inside it — is the markup a React sortable header should write too, so both kinds of table draw their arrows from one stylesheet rule.

scrollTables(html) is the one table pass that runs on the string, before render: it wraps each stored table in a .table-scroll box, and base.css lets that box scroll sideways. A table box ignores overflow, so a table with an address or a URL in a cell is as wide as that token whatever its column, and a scroll box added by an effect would arrive after the table had already been laid out too wide. Call it on the render path beside injectHeadingIds. A table already in a box keeps it, so it is safe on HTML that has been through it once. articleHtml(html, { used, slug, anchor, links }) (wiki-formant/headings) is that chain: heading ids, the scroll boxes, and, given links, normaliseLinks.

The embed's origin is written down once. It is both the embed host and the allow-list onTweetResize checks before believing a posted height, and it had been spelled out at four call sites across two repos. Any page can postMessage; only the embed host may size the embed. Every embed on a page posts to the same listener, so onTweetResize hands over the window that posted, and sizeTweetEmbed sizes only that one's iframe: two posts on a page had both been drawn at whichever height arrived last.

Search

proseSql, HEADLINE_OPTIONS and FTS_RANK_NORMALIZATION are what a literal tier and a full-text tier must agree on. searchTsvDdl(table) is the statements that build the generated search_tsv column and its index — dropped and re-added in one transaction every run, because a skip-if-present script is blind to a changed expression.

Block trees

Every wiki here stores the same two containers the same way — columns[i].blocks and an infobox's blocks — and between them had hand-written that walk seven times. Bind it once and hand it to every walk:

import { coreBlockShape, leafBlocks, mapBlockTree } from 'wiki-formant/blocks';

export const BLOCK_SHAPE = coreBlockShape<Block>();
mapBlockTree(blocks, processLeaf, BLOCK_SHAPE);
leafBlocks(blocks, BLOCK_SHAPE.containers);

computeRevisionDiff defaults to the same shape, path-addressed, so a repo whose containers are the core two passes none.

The dispatch over a repo's own block union stays in that repo; the bodies come from here. coreAtomicText has a prose body for every core leaf — the stats, link-grid and page-list bodies joined the originals when two of the three wikis turned out to extract nothing from them, so their MCP get_page answered a hub page as nearly empty.

The core leaves — content, codeTabs, banner, references, stats, linkGrid, testimonial, events, locations, recentPages, pageList, and list, which does what the two page lists do between them — had the same case bodies in every wiki's text export, markdown twin, validator and new-block record. A repo's switch hands those cases over and keeps its own, so it stays exhaustive over its union:

import { coreAtomicText, coreAtomicToMarkdown, coreBlockDefaults } from 'wiki-formant/blocks';
import { coreAtomicValidator } from 'wiki-formant/validation';

switch (block.type) {

    return coreAtomicToMarkdown(block, { siteUrl: SITE_URL, referencesTitle: 'Sources' });

const BLOCK_DEFAULTS = { ...coreBlockDefaults({ stats }), daoTimeline: () => ({ type: 'daoTimeline', limit: 25 }) };
const core = coreAtomicValidator({ pageId: id => /^\d{1,9}$/.test(id) });
// validateAtomic: b => { switch (b.type) { case 'daoTimeline': …; default: return core(b); } }

coreAtomicToMarkdown joins a resolved page's site-relative href to siteUrl, because a twin is read off-site; a wiki whose lists hold its own page rows keeps those two cases. coreAtomicValidator caps recentPages.limit and pageIds at MAX_BLOCK_ROWS, a whole number of rows, because both end in a database take:; blockLimit is the same bound on the read side.

defineBlocks (in wiki-formant/validation) is the whole model in one declaration: the shape, the types, createBlock, duplicateBlock, validateBlocks and blockIssues, from a record of defaults and the wiki's own leaf checks. A check for a core type narrows the package's: list: (b, core) => core(b) && isSection(b.under). BlockTree<Atomic> is the union over the two containers.

const model = defineBlocks<Block>({ defaults: { ...coreBlockDefaults(), corpusStats: () => ({ type: 'corpusStats', view: 'sourceTiers' }) }, checks: { corpusStats: b => isCorpusView(b.view) } });
export const { shape: BLOCK_SHAPE, createBlock, duplicateBlock, validateBlocks, blockIssues } = model;

createBlockValidator returns blockIssues beside the boolean validators: the same walk, reporting where each failure is.

const issues = blockIssues(body.content);
if (issues.length) return badRequest(`Invalid content: ${describeBlockIssues(issues)}`);
// Invalid content: [2].columns[0].blocks[1]: malformed linkGrid block

A codeTabs tab's code is source text in every wiki here, and every view treats it that way: CodeTabsView escapes it into a <pre><code>, the sanitiser leaves it alone, the markdown twin fences it verbatim. A wiki that escapes and highlights on the server passes highlighted to the view. The package used to assume editors stored highlighted markup; none ever had, and every twin printed Vec<u8> as Vec.

recentPages, pageList and a list resolve to ResolvedPageRefs — build each with pageRef(page, now), which carries the ISO date a <time> needs — and PageRefsView renders them as a list, with a renderItem slot for a wiki that has its own row.

Dates

relativeTime(then, now, { style }) is compact (3h), short (3h ago) or long (3 days ago, day-grained for pages cached for hours), with absoluteAfterDays to hand over to the date itself. now is always passed in, never read, so a server render and its hydration agree. formatDay is always UTC: a stored day formatted in the server's zone, or the browser's, is the previous day for half the world. It reads en-US unless given a locale: formatDay(day, { locale: 'en-GB', month: 'long' }) is 19 September 2026. Both are in wiki-formant/freshness, with isoDate.

Freshness and the maintenance queues

freshnessBanner(page, nowMs, { maxAgeDays, against }) is the synthetic outdated banner a page carries once it has gone unchecked for maxAgeDays (180), or null. Its notice asks the reader to re-check the facts against current sources; the two Radix wikis pass against: 'current sources and the live ledger', which a shop's wiki has no use for.

wiki-formant/queues gathers the signals each page shows into Wikipedia's tracking categories: maintenanceQueues(pages, { href, required, nowMs, verify, listedIds }) returns the outdated, orphaned, unsourced and missing-facts queues, empty ones dropped, from one pass over the pages' content. Pass every page but the home page and the back office, since an orphan is a page no other page links to. href is a page's address as its links name it, required the facts its category requires, verify how a page is stamped as checked here (it closes the outdated queue's sentence), and listedIds the ids a list block names its pages by. MaintenanceQueues (wiki-formant/react-server) draws them, a heading and a count each, under classes maintenance-*; the page around them is the wiki's, noindex. All four apps serve one at /maintenance (on miow, the owner page).

Sanitising stored HTML

wiki-formant/sanitize is the allowlist between an author's saved HTML and a reader's browser. The block views render four HTML fields themselves — linkGrid descriptions, references and events text, and a place's note — and a repo renders content.text beside them, so the guard ships with the renderer. codeTabs is not one of them: its code is source. Run it server-side, on the render path, so it covers rows written before it existed and no sanitiser ships to the client.

import { createHtmlSanitizer, sanitizeCoreLeaf } from 'wiki-formant/sanitize';

const clean = createHtmlSanitizer({ iframeHosts: FRAME_HOSTS });   // and the same hosts in the CSP's frame-src
const safe = mapBlockTree(blocks, b => sanitizeCoreLeaf(b, clean), BLOCK_SHAPE);

The default list is derived from what the editor nodes in wiki-formant/tiptap store — the embed wrappers' data attributes, the tab markup activateTabGroups reads back, the table classes — plus the presentational SVG subset the infographics pipeline embeds. Extend it with tags, attributes, classes and schemesByTag derived from your stored HTML, never from memory: a list written from memory erases content on the first render.

A YouTube iframe comes out as the YouTube node's markup, <div data-youtube-video><iframe …></iframe></div>, whoever wrote it: an agent, an import, a pasted embed code. The editor then opens it as that node, and base.css draws it as the same full-width 16:9 player as one the editor wrote, as it does a map embed. Two wikis had drawn that player in their own stylesheets and a third drew any iframe its own way; spacing, corners, borders and the editor's selection ring stay the site's.

Classes pass by name only. Limiting style to layout and paint is worth nothing while class is free, because every site's own stylesheet ships fixed inset-0 z-50, and those draw a fake prompt over the chrome as well as position does.

Image uploads

wiki-formant/upload is the route an editor's image upload posts to. Two wikis had written it and their limits had drifted: one took 25 MB with no cap on decoded pixels and trusted the Content-Type the client sent, the other 4 MB, 40 megapixels and the file's own leading bytes. These are the second one's defaults.

// src/app/api/upload/route.ts
export const runtime = 'nodejs';
export const POST = uploadHandler({
  authorize: async () => (await currentUser())?.id ?? errors.unauthorized('Sign in to upload.'),
  prefix: 'wiki/',
});

The bytes say what the file is, never the name or type, and SVG is refused. Every image is re-encoded, upright, so nothing from the source's metadata is kept, a phone's GPS position included; the bytes as sent are never stored. encode is the re-encode, the sniffed format by default; a wiki with an image standard resizes and converts there. Each uploader has a budget keyed on authorize's id and address, and each address one of its own, so an id minted fresh per burst (a self-signed wallet) refills nothing. maxBytes, maxPixels and rateLimit take other limits, and store replaces Vercel Blob. sharp and @vercel/blob are optional peers. normalizeImage(bytes, { maxPixels, encode }) is the same sniff, cap and re-encode without the route, for images that arrive another way – a server action, or a picture copied in from another site; it resolves to { buffer, format, contentType } and throws a message fit to show the uploader.

Editor nodes

wiki-formant/tiptap carries the custom nodes both wiki editors had written twice: Iframe, YouTube (the stock extension plus the paste rule it does not ship with), TwitterEmbed, createMapEmbed, createCodeBlock and createTabs. embedNodes({ resolveMapUrl }) is the first four as one list, which an editor puts in its nodes: a pasted YouTube, X or map link becomes its player as it lands, and the toolbar's embed prompt has a node for every link it recognises. resolveMapUrl defaults to wiki-formant/maps', through /api/resolve-map. Iframe and createMapEmbed draw a frame only for an https src on DEFAULT_IFRAME_HOSTS (embedSrc), since an editor draws stored HTML where its author is signed in, and a javascript: src runs there under any CSP that allows inline script.

const CodeBlock = createCodeBlock({
  classNames: { button: 'lang-btn', option: 'lang-option', optionActive: 'text-accent' },
  icons: { chevron: open => <ChevronDown className={open ? 'rotate-180' : ''} /> },
});

The language list defaults to CODE_LANGS and DEFAULT_LANG from wiki-formant/blocks, which two wikis had typed identically; a wiki with its own passes langs and defaultLang. The ones that take config take it because that is exactly where the two copies differed — class tokens, the language list, and the API route a shortened map URL has to be resolved through. Injecting them is what lets one wiki keep text-jupiter and the other text-accent without either forking the node, and it keeps this file from dragging an icon library in behind it.

Both node views draw in default classes (code-block…, tabs-editor, tab-button…) that base.css styles plainly enough for any site, the editor's rule showing the tab the writer picked included; pass classNames and icons to draw them your own way. createTabs returns TabGroup and TabItem together: tabGroup's content expression is tabItem+, so registering one without the other leaves a node type the schema cannot satisfy. A pasted short map link inserts immediately with about:blank and swaps its src when the redirect resolves — pasting must not block on a network hop, and the node has to exist for the reader to see anything happen.

createHeadingIds({ slug }) decorates each heading in the editor with the id its published copy will carry, through uniqueHeadingId — the dedupe injectHeadingIds uses — so a rail listing headings mid-edit links to the anchors readers will get. uploadImageTo('/api/upload') is the uploadImage two editors had written identically.

WikiToolbar shows what the editor can do and nothing else: each command whose node, mark or command the editor's extensions include, so an app's buttons follow from its nodes and no app keeps a second list. They come in groups – undo and redo; bold, italic, inline code and link; the three headings; lists, quote and code block; then upload (given onUpload), embed (where there are embed nodes), table, tabs and divider – with Remove link after Link while the cursor is in a link, and the table controls while it is in a table. Four apps had each listed buttons by hand: one had no numbered list, one had a code-block node and no button for it, and only one had undo. Every button is a ToolbarButton, named and aria-pressed; the icons, the classes and anything after the buttons (children) are yours.

<WikiToolbar editor={editor} prompt={url} onUpload={triggerUpload}
  icons={{ ...ICONS, unlink: <Unlink />, upload: <Upload />, embed: <Globe /> }}
  classNames={{ toolbar: 'toolbar', button: 'toolbar-btn', pressed: 'toolbar-btn-on', divider: 'toolbar-divider' }} />
<UrlPromptField prompt={url} classNames={{ row: 'row', input: 'input', apply: 'btn', cancel: 'btn-quiet' }} />

WikiLine is a one-line field – a title, a heading, a caption, a button – edited in the element that shows it. Its schema is the line and the marks it may keep (bold, italic, link), so a typed "- " makes no list and a pasted heading runs into the line; its value is that HTML, or plain text with no marks. It has its own undo, and onFocus hands over its editor, so one WikiToolbar can drive whichever field was last touched. base.css gives it a placeholder from data-placeholder.

<WikiLine as="h1" value={title} onChange={setTitle} placeholder="The page's title" />
<WikiLine as="p" marks={['bold', 'italic', 'link']} value={note} onChange={setNote} placeholder="A note" />

useUrlPrompt(editor, { resolveMapUrl }) is the link and embed address field under a toolbar, in place of a window.prompt that blocks the page and cannot show the link the cursor is in. Three editors had written it and one still used the prompt; only one copy both opened a link field on the current address and unlinked on an emptied one. The hook carries both, closes the field when the editor it serves changes (a toolbar shared between blocks would otherwise apply it to the wrong one), and leaves the markup to you.

UrlPromptField is its markup: an address input on which Enter applies and Escape closes, and Apply and Cancel.

A link is stored as its href and the link class, nothing else. Stock Tiptap writes target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" onto every link, internal ones included, which on a site throws away its own link equity and opens in-site navigation in new tabs. Whether a link is external depends on the host serving the page, so normaliseLinks decides it at render time. A legacy link loses both attributes the next time its page is saved.

The redirect resolves through the wiki's own route, because the editor cannot read it cross-origin. resolveMapUrl is the client half and resolveMapHandler the whole route: exact shortener hosts, one hop, an allowlisted landing host, a timeout, and your sign-in check as authorize. One of the two copies it replaced matched goo.gl as a substring and followed every redirect for anyone who asked.

export const GET = resolveMapHandler({ authorize: async () => !!(await currentUser()) });

Block editor

wiki-formant/block-editor is the block list an author edits and the fields of the core types. Three wikis had written it, 500 to 700 lines each, and had drifted: one dropped a stored code language its list did not name, one let a typed count run past the row cap, one named every remove button "Remove", one never marked the block being edited. The behaviour is here once, and so is the chrome: each block is a card with a toolbar (its name, then add below, move, duplicate and delete, shown while the block is in hand and always on a touch screen), and every add menu is two tight columns of names, each type's hint its tooltip, drawn by base.css on the --ui-* tokens. The fields' look arrives as a kit.

const KIT: BlockEditorKit = {
  classNames: { action: 'icon-btn', input: 'input', row: 'row', stack: 'stack-sm', … },
  icons: { add: <Plus />, up: <ChevronUp />, down: <ChevronDown />, duplicate: <Copy />, remove: <Trash2 /> },
  Choice: ToggleGroup,   // optional: a <select> otherwise
};
const SCHEMA: BlockSchema<Block> = {
  meta: type => BLOCK_META[type], create: createBlock, duplicate: duplicateBlock,
  types: PAGE_TYPES, neste
