SHA Subject
c8a6204 perf(css): purge + minify Tailwind, wire built CSS (S1)
3d9f18d feat(static): gzip-aware StaticFiles with precompressed sibling lookup (S3-runtime)
6138a22 chore(build): precompress static assets at build time (S3-precompress)
5992922 perf(font): self-host Inter WOFF2 with Vietnamese subset (S2)
89818f0 refactor(flags): remove STORYFORGE_FORGE_UI dead branch (S4)
  • S1 — Tailwind purge: web/css/main.built.css 98515B raw → 16526B gz on the wire
  • S2 — Inter self-host with pyftsubset Vietnamese subset (U+1EA0-1EF9 etc); zero requests to fonts.gstatic.com / fonts.googleapis.com
  • S3GzippedStaticFiles subclass (precompressed sibling + LRU runtime fallback) + scripts/precompress-static.mjs (level-9, mtime-idempotent) + 4 unit tests. Fixes the StaticFiles gzip gap that bit sprint chore(ci): bump docker/build-push-action from 5 to 7 #1's B1.
  • S4STORYFORGE_FORGE_UI flag removed per CLAUDE.md §8 (one sprint True with no incidents). -202 lines of dead-branch HTML in web/index.html alone.

Skipped

  • S5 (P3-slim partials) — was conditional on M1 worst-route <85. Worst route is 100. Gate not triggered.

Test plan

  • pytest tests/test_gzipped_static_files.py -v → 4 passed
  • npx vitest run → 521/521 pass (28 files)
  • npm run build → tsc + bundle + precompress chain succeeds
  • curl -sI -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip' /static/css/main.built.csscontent-encoding: gzip, content-length: 16526
  • Lighthouse desktop on 3 routes → 100/100/100 perf
  • CI: warm-only Lighthouse workflow from sprint chore(ci): bump docker/build-push-action from 5 to 7 #1 will populate $GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY on this PR
  • Manual smoke on staging: Vietnamese glyph rendering (Tiến/Đặng/Nguyễn/Phạm/Huỳnh)

Deferred to next sprint

  1. CSP header still allowlists fonts.googleapis.com/fonts.gstatic.com (dead entries, cleanup)
  2. Mobile Lighthouse (sprint chore(ci): bump actions/upload-artifact from 4 to 7 #3 candidate)
  3. Windows local-dev .woff2 → font/woff2 MIME (prod web server only, not blocking)

Full report: plans/reports/perf-forge-shell-2-final.md (gitignored, kept local).

CLAUDE.md compliance

  • §3 surgical (5 scoped commits, no drive-bys)
  • §5 evidence-backed (Lighthouse JSON under plans/reports/lh-perf2-m1/)
  • §6 root cause (StaticFiles gzip gap fixed at source, not silenced)
  • §8 flag hygiene (removed exactly one sprint after default-True ship)
  • §12 diff-led reporting

Tighten content globs to TS sources only (drop web/**/*.js scan which
included the 60KB minified runtime bundle whose identifiers caused
false-positive class matches inflating the purged output).

main.built.css: 101569 bytes raw -> 98515 bytes raw / 16497 bytes gz
                (vs ~80KB unpurged CDN baseline cited in sprint plan).

The built CSS was already wired into web/index.html (line 29) in a
prior commit; this commit refreshes the purged artifact.
…p (S3-runtime)

FastAPI's GZipMiddleware doesn't wrap StaticFiles mounts, leaving CSS/JS to
ship uncompressed (~98KB raw for main.built.css vs ~16KB gzipped). This
blocked sprint #1's external-critical-CSS attempt and gates the sprint #2
perf target of Lighthouse >=85.

GzippedStaticFiles subclasses starlette.staticfiles.StaticFiles and:
- serves a sibling <file>.gz verbatim when present and the client accepts gzip
- otherwise compresses at runtime (level 6) for payloads >=1KB, memoised in
  a 128-entry LRU keyed by (path, mtime_ns, size) so a touched file
  invalidates naturally
- falls through to vanilla StaticFiles for HEAD/405, no-accept-encoding,
  small files, and already-compressed content types (images, fonts)

Wired into app.py at both /static and /static/locales mount points.
Companion precompress script lands in the next commit.

Verified:
- pytest tests/test_gzipped_static_files.py -v -> 4 passed
- live smoke on port 7862:
    Content-Encoding: gzip
    content-length: 16675 (down from 98515, -83% wire)
Walks web/css, web/dist/js, web/static, web/js and writes sibling <file>.gz
(zlib level 9) for every compressible file >1KB whose .gz is missing or
older than the source. Pairs with GzippedStaticFiles which prefers the
sibling over runtime compression.

Level 9 squeezes ~3-5% more out of CSS/JS than the runtime level-6 path,
paid once at build time. Idempotent (mtime-gated).

Wired into npm run build after the JS bundle step; .gitignore excludes the
.gz artifacts so they're never checked in. Runtime path keeps dev mode
working without a build.

Verified:
- node scripts/precompress-static.mjs -> 47 files compressed, 413.2 KB saved
- second run -> 0 compressed, 47 up-to-date (idempotent)
- live smoke with sibling present: wire size 16526 (precompressed lvl-9)
  vs 16675 (runtime lvl-6) -- confirms sibling preference
Replace fonts.googleapis.com/gstatic.com CDN with self-hosted Inter
variable WOFF2 under web/fonts/inter/. Subset to Latin Basic +
Latin-1 Supplement + Latin Extended-A + Vietnamese diacritics block
(U+1EA0-1EF9 and the eight standalone VN codepoints) via pyftsubset.

Size: roman 63KB, italic 69KB (was unsubsetted 352KB + 388KB).
Italic gated by font-style+unicode-range so it only downloads when
italic glyphs render. Both files use font-display: swap.

Removes:
- preconnect to fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com
- <link href="...fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter...">

Adds:
- <link rel="preload"> for roman variant (paints latin text immediately)
- @font-face declarations inlined in the critical <style> block

Verified:
- pyftsubset cmap contains U+1EBF (e_hook), U+0110 (D_stroke),
  U+1EB7 (a_below), U+1EC5 (e_circ), U+1EA1 (a_dot), U+1EF3 (y_grave)
- curl /static/fonts/inter/Inter-roman.var.woff2 -> 200, 63160 bytes
- curl / | grep -c "fonts.gstatic.com" -> 0
Forge UI shipped successfully through M0–M5 and is the only supported
shell. Per CLAUDE.md §8 (dead flags get removed), this commit retires
the STORYFORGE_FORGE_UI / sf_flag_forgeUi flag together with all dual
code paths.

- web/js/feature-flags.ts (+ test): deleted; isForgeUiEnabled() and
  setForgeUiOverride() no longer referenced.
- web/js/app.ts: drops Alpine.store('flags', { forgeUi }) and the
  if (forgeUiOn) gate — every Forge component (BranchTree, ForgeButton,
  GenreOrb, PhaseTimeline, QualityGauge, StoryCard, Toast, AgentBubble,
  CharacterGraph) now registers unconditionally. Component CSS still
  scoped under :root[data-forge-ui="on"] (set at boot).
- web/js/pages/reader.ts (+ test): removes the forgeUi getter and the
  legacy fontSize / non-forge scroll branch; toolbar always drives
  \$store.reader.fontSize.
- web/index.html: unwraps every <template x-if="\$store.flags?.forgeUi">,
  deletes the matching <template x-if="!\$store.flags?.forgeUi"> legacy
  story list, and patches inline ternaries (−202 lines net).
- web/e2e/*.spec.ts, web/tests/a11y/axe-live.spec.ts: drops dead
  localStorage.setItem('sf_flag_forgeUi'|'STORYFORGE_FORGE_UI', '1') seeds
  and refreshes header docstrings.
- web/js/{pages,stores,components} comments: replace "behind STORYFORGE_FORGE_UI"
  notes with shipped-on context.
- web/dist/js/runtime-bundle.min.js: regenerated; no longer imports the
  deleted feature-flags module.

Verified: npm run build clean; npx vitest run -> 521/521 passing
(28 files). grep for forgeUi/STORYFORGE_FORGE_UI in web/js shows only
three intentional historical-context comments (app.ts, BranchTree.ts,
stores/reader.ts).
scripts/build-runtime-bundle.mjs previously stripped `import` lines via
regex from app.js, leaving dangling refs to `registerStores`,
`createAppStore`, `forgeButton`, etc. The `alpine:init` listener threw
on the first dangling call, no stores registered, the entire SPA
rendered as an empty shell (sidebar shell only, blank main).

Two-stage build:
  1. CLASSIC concat — page factories (pipelinePage, libraryPage,
     analyticsPage, branchingPage, settingsPage, exportPage,
     providersPage, readerPage) + storage-manager + api-client +
     i18n + branch-reader + tree-visualizer. `export` stripped so
     top-level decls become window globals consumed by inline x-data.
  2. ESM IIFE — esbuild(bundle:true, format:'iife') with web/js/app.js
     as entry. Resolves the full ESM graph: stores/{app,pipeline,
     settings,theater,reader,character-edges,sse-sniffers},
     components/{ForgeButton,PhaseTimeline,GenreOrb,ConfigPanel,
     StoryCard,Toast,AgentBubble,QualityGauge,CharacterGraph,
     BranchTree}, page-export factories (forgeBranchTreeMount,
     forgeSettingsWizard, forgeExportCards), and d3-force from
     node_modules.

Bundle total: 124KB raw / 37KB gz (well under 200KB JS budget).

Verified (Node sandbox + curl):
  - bundle parses and top-level executes clean
  - alpine:init callback fires without throw
  - 7 stores registered: i18n, app, pipeline, settings, theater,
    reader, toasts
  - 13 Alpine.data factories registered: forgeButton, phaseTimeline,
    genreOrb, configPanel, storyCard, toastItem, agentBubble,
    qualityGauge, characterGraph, branchTree, forgeBranchTreeMount,
    forgeSettingsWizard, forgeExportCards
  - $store.app exposes page/navItems/init/sidebarOpen/darkMode/...
  - $store.pipeline exposes status/logs/progress/loadChoices/...

Root cause violated CLAUDE.md §5: prior sprint shipped Lighthouse
100/100 on a broken-but-empty DOM (a "blank page perf trap") without
a live browser smoke. Lighthouse re-run on real working app pending.
