 # Completed Steps
 
+- 2026-09-29: nginx sends the security headers `REPO_POLICIES.md` requires on
+  every response (issue #18), including errors, `/assets/` and what it passes on
+  from the backend, whose own copies it drops so each header goes out once. They
+  live in `security-headers.conf`, which `nginx.conf` includes. The content
+  security policy allows no inline script or style, so the status dot's grey in
+  `src/main.js` is now a class; `connect-src` is `*` because probed hosts
+  redirect to others, and the browser checks each redirect against it
+- 2026-09-29: the request log is bounded (issue #60): the method, URL, protocol,
+  `User-Agent`, `Referer`, request ID (which chi takes from the client's
+  `X-Request-Id` header) and client address it writes are each cut to 128 bytes,
+  the bound the report handler already used, so one request can no longer put
+  about 1 MiB per field into a log line. That bound and its helper now live in
+  the `logger` package, shared by both
+- 2026-09-29: nginx takes the client address from `X-Forwarded-For` only on
+  requests from the reverse proxies named in the container's `TRUSTED_PROXIES`
+  (issue #64), and by default from none, where it trusted every RFC1918 address
+  before, so a client could write a new address on each request and escape the
+  rate limit. `bin/entrypoint.sh` writes one `set_real_ip_from` line per entry
+  into `/etc/nginx/trusted-proxies.conf`, which `nginx.conf` includes, refusing
+  an entry that is not an IP address or CIDR, as `netwatch-server check-cidr`
+  finds; it starts the backend with `TRUSTED_PROXIES=127.0.0.1/32`, since nginx
+  is its only client
+- 2026-09-29: report file names can no longer collide (issue #61): each is
+  `reports-<timestamp>-<number>.jsonl.zst`, where the number goes up by one for
+  each file the server starts to write, so two flushes in the same millisecond,
+  such as a flush for size and the final flush at shutdown, each get a file of
+  their own instead of the second one failing. A failed write uses up its
+  number, leaving a gap if the file could not be created and otherwise a file
+  under that number that may be incomplete.

+only nginx reaches it, and with `TRUSTED_PROXIES=127.0.0.1/32`, so it takes the
+client address nginx passes on and no other. `DATA_DIR` is `/data/reports`, on
+the `/data` volume, which `netwatch` owns. nginx replaces the security headers
+this server sets with those in the root `security-headers.conf`, so those are

+The container's own `TRUSTED_PROXIES` goes to nginx instead: IP addresses or
+CIDRs, separated by commas, of the reverse proxies in front of the container.
+nginx takes the client address from `X-Forwarded-For` only on a request from one
+of them. Unset or empty, nginx trusts no proxy, and the client address is the
+one each request comes from, so every client behind a proxy shares one rate
+limit. An entry that is not an IP address or CIDR, such as a hostname or
+`1.2.3`, stops the container at start with an error naming `TRUSTED_PROXIES`:
+the entrypoint checks each entry with `netwatch-server check-cidr`, which parses
+it as this server parses its own `TRUSTED_PROXIES`.

+Reports are written as `reports-<timestamp>-<number>.jsonl.zst` files in

+file the server starts to write, so two files written in the same millisecond
