social-federation tasks 1.1–1.3:
- Add @fedify/fedify pinned to exactly 2.1.16: every 2.2.x release
depends on @fedify/webfinger@2.2.x which was never published to npm,
so 2.1.16 is the newest installable version.
- app/lib/federation.server.ts: Federation instance with an actor
dispatcher serving Person objects for public users; private and
unknown users 404 (no existence leak). MemoryKvStore for now.
- /.well-known/webfinger resource route delegating to federation.fetch.
- ActivityPub content negotiation on /users/:username via route
middleware (future.v8_middleware — no loader uses the context arg,
so the flag is a no-op for existing code).
- FEDERATION_ENABLED env flag (default off) gating every federation
surface.
- Unit tests exercise the Fedify dispatcher as a remote AP client:
WebFinger resolution, actor fetch with Mastodon's Accept header,
private-user 404s, flag-off 404s.
Spike verdict: Fedify fits — URL dispatch, JRD/AP serialization, and
visibility gating all work through framework routes without a custom
server layer.
