+- 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,
