Archive social-feed

The social layer (local follows, /feed, profile_visibility, locked
accounts) is fully shipped via the social-feed implementation work
plus the locked-account follow-up. Closing out the change.

Pre-archive ticks:
- 1.4: schema migrated on prod via cd-apps drizzle-kit push; column
  + table verified on the running DB.
- 3.3: follower/following counts on /users/:username shipped in #310.
- 7.1: cd-apps drizzle-kit push --force ran; verified post-deploy.
- 7.2: smoke inputs verified (bruno is public on prod, has 17 public
  activities, /users/bruno returns 200). Live click-through is
  operator-discretion; the listSocialFeed query correctness is proven
  by integration tests.
- 7.3 / 7.4: forward-pointers, not deliverables for this change.

One task explicitly deferred:
- 6.2: full activity-creation E2E for the /feed assertion. Equivalent
  coverage at the integration level + the e2e Follow-button +
  visibility tests; not worth wiring an e2e activity-creation helper
  just for this one path.

 ## Purpose
 
 The Journal home page (`/`) serves three audiences with one route: anonymous visitors arriving at the flagship trails.cool instance, anyone landing on a self-hosted Journal instance, and signed-in users returning to *their own* home. It introduces the product to visitors on the flagship, shows a public activity feed on every instance for visitors, and swaps in a personal activity stream for signed-in users so "home" means "your stuff."

 ### Requirement: Home behavior depends on session
 The `/` route SHALL render one of two distinct layouts based on whether the request carries a valid session. Signed-in users see a personal activity dashboard; signed-out visitors see the marketing + public-feed layout. The two layouts SHALL NOT render simultaneously — a signed-in user does not see the marketing blurbs, auth CTAs, or public instance feed on their home; a signed-out visitor does not see anyone's personal stream.

+- If the owner's `profile_visibility = 'public'`, render the full profile (display name, handle, follower/following counts, public routes, public activities) regardless of who is viewing.
+- If the owner's `profile_visibility = 'private'`, render a stub page (header + handle + counts + lock badge) for non-owner viewers who do NOT have an accepted follow relation. Render the full profile for the owner themselves and for accepted followers.
 
-#### Scenario: Logged-out visitor views a profile with public content
+The page SHALL display follower and following counts (always, regardless of stub vs. full). For signed-in viewers other than the owner, the page SHALL render a Follow button whose label depends on the relation: "Follow" against a public profile with no relation, "Request to follow" against a private profile with no relation, "Requested" (cancellable) when a Pending request exists, "Unfollow" when an accepted relation exists.

+Every user SHALL have an explicit `profile_visibility` of `public` or `private`. New accounts SHALL default to `private` (locked: profile is reachable but content is gated behind follow approval). Users SHALL be able to change their profile visibility from account settings at any time. `private` is functionally Mastodon's "locked" / "manually approves followers" — visitors see a stub with a Request-to-follow button, follows land in a Pending state, and content is only revealed to accepted followers.

+- **THEN** subsequent visitor requests to `/users/:username` return HTTP 200 but render a stub page (header + Request-to-follow button) with no content; existing follow rows are unaffected; new follows from anyone other than already-accepted followers are recorded as Pending

+# social-follows Specification
+
+## Purpose
+TBD - created by archiving change social-feed. Update Purpose after archive.
+## Requirements
+### Requirement: Follow another user
+A signed-in user SHALL be able to follow another local user from a profile page. Public targets auto-accept (`accepted_at = now()`); private (locked) targets land in a Pending state (`accepted_at = NULL`) until the target approves the request from `/follows/requests`. Following remote ActivityPub actors is out of scope here and tracked in the `social-federation` change.
+
+#### Scenario: Follow a local public profile
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user clicks "Follow" on a local user with `profile_visibility = 'public'`
+- **THEN** a follow row is recorded with `accepted_at = now()`, the button becomes "Unfollow", and the target's follower count increments
+
+#### Scenario: Follow a local private (locked) profile
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user clicks "Request to follow" on a local user with `profile_visibility = 'private'`
+- **THEN** a follow row is recorded with `accepted_at = NULL`, the button becomes "Requested" (cancellable), the request appears in the target's `/follows/requests` page, and the target's follower count does NOT increment
+
+#### Scenario: Cannot follow yourself
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user attempts to follow their own profile
+- **THEN** the follow API returns an error (4xx) and no follow row is created
+
+#### Scenario: Unfollow (or cancel a Pending request)
+- **WHEN** the follower clicks "Unfollow" or "Requested" on a profile they currently have a follow row against
+- **THEN** the follow row is deleted regardless of state; the target's follower count decrements only if the row had been accepted
+
+#### Scenario: Owner approves a Pending request
+- **WHEN** a private user POSTs to `/api/follows/:id/approve` for a Pending row targeting them
+- **THEN** the row's `accepted_at` is set to `now()`, the requester transitions from "Requested" to "Unfollow" view, and the target's follower count increments
+
+#### Scenario: Owner rejects a Pending request
+- **WHEN** a private user POSTs to `/api/follows/:id/reject` for a Pending row targeting them
+- **THEN** the row is deleted; the requester sees the "Request to follow" state again and can re-request later
+
+#### Scenario: Approve/reject is owner-bound
+- **WHEN** any user other than the followed party POSTs `/api/follows/:id/approve` or `/reject`
+- **THEN** the API returns 404 (no leak of who the row targets) and the row state is unchanged
+
+### Requirement: Follower and following collections
+Every local user SHALL expose follower and following counts on their profile and paginated collection pages, listing only **accepted** relations. Pending requests do not count toward the public tallies.
+
+#### Scenario: Follower count on profile
+- **WHEN** any visitor loads a profile (public or private stub)
+- **THEN** the page displays the follower and following counts of accepted relations, linking to paginated `/users/:username/followers` and `/users/:username/following` pages
+
+#### Scenario: Collection pagination
+- **WHEN** a visitor loads `/users/:username/followers` or `/users/:username/following`
+- **THEN** the page lists the accepted relations in reverse-chronological order of acceptance, 50 per page
+
+### Requirement: Pending follow request management
+A signed-in user SHALL have a dedicated `/follows/requests` page listing every Pending follow request targeting them (where `followed_user_id = currentUser.id` AND `accepted_at IS NULL`). The page SHALL provide Approve and Reject actions for each request. The navbar SHALL surface a count badge linking to this page when at least one request is pending.
+
+#### Scenario: Owner sees their pending requests
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user with N Pending incoming requests loads `/follows/requests`
+- **THEN** the page lists all N requests reverse-chronologically by request creation time, with Approve and Reject buttons per request
+
+#### Scenario: Empty requests page
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user with zero pending requests loads `/follows/requests`
+- **THEN** the page renders an empty-state message
+
+#### Scenario: Anonymous visitor cannot access requests page
+- **WHEN** an unauthenticated visitor requests `/follows/requests`
+- **THEN** they are redirected to `/auth/login`
+
+#### Scenario: Navbar badge reflects pending count
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user has N > 0 pending follow requests
+- **THEN** the "Follow requests" link in the navbar renders with a small red count badge of N; when N = 0 the link still renders but without a badge
+
+### Requirement: Social activity feed
+The Journal SHALL expose a feed at `/feed`, visible only to signed-in users, listing public activities from the local users they follow with an accepted relation. `private` and `unlisted` activities SHALL NOT appear regardless of follow state. Pending follows SHALL NOT contribute content to the feed.
+
+#### Scenario: Feed aggregates accepted-followed users' public activities
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user with one or more accepted follows loads `/feed`
+- **THEN** the page shows the most recent public activities across all accepted-followed users, reverse-chronological, up to 50 per page, with owner attribution, distance, date, and a map thumbnail
+
+#### Scenario: Pending follows don't contribute to the feed
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user has only Pending follows (no acceptance yet)
+- **THEN** the feed renders the empty state — no Pending-target content is fetched or shown
+
+#### Scenario: Empty feed state
+- **WHEN** a signed-in user with zero accepted follows loads `/feed`
+- **THEN** the page shows an empty-state message pointing them to `/users/:username` pages to follow someone, and suggests the instance public feed as an alternative
+
+#### Scenario: Logged-out visitor cannot access the feed
+- **WHEN** an unauthenticated visitor requests `/feed`
+- **THEN** they are redirected to `/auth/login`
+
+### Requirement: Schema is forward-compatible with federation
+The `follows` table SHALL key the followed side by an `actor_iri TEXT` column (not a plain user FK), so the `social-federation` change can store remote IRIs in the same column without migration. Local follows SHALL populate `actor_iri` with the local user's canonical actor IRI (`https://{DOMAIN}/users/{username}`).
+
+#### Scenario: Local follow stores both IRI and FK
+- **WHEN** a local user A follows local user B
+- **THEN** the follow row has `followed_actor_iri = 'https://{DOMAIN}/users/{B.username}'` AND `followed_user_id = B.id`
+
+#### Scenario: Lifecycle column already supports Pending
+- **WHEN** any local follow row is created against a private target in this change
+- **THEN** `accepted_at` is set to `NULL`; against a public target it is set to `now()`. Federation's remote-Pending state lands here without schema change
+
