Canonical v2-schema `.golangci.yml`, golangci-lint pins bumped to v2.12.2 in `Dockerfile` and `script/bootstrap`, and the tree brought to `0 issues.` under it.
Three behaviour deltas: `Cache.StoreVariant` takes a context (cancelled requests skip the accounting row, recovered by reconciliation); `MetadataStorage.Store` no longer leaks `.tmp-*.json` on Write/Close/Rename failure (dead-defer bug fix); the `signing_key` too-short error text gained a `value too short:` prefix.
Eviction-loop context cancellation deferred to #102.
Implements #51 per the issue DoD and the owner direction comment (issuecomment-44068).
## Behavior
**Config: `cache_max_bytes`** (integrates with the #52/#53 validation framework)
- Strict int64 parsing via a new `getInt64`/`int64Val` getter in the existing strict-loader pattern; the key is registered in the known-keys list. A SET but invalid value — negative, float, null, non-numeric string, boolean, list — aborts startup with exit 1 naming the key and the offending value.
- Explicit values are used exactly as given, any non-negative amount, no floor. `cache_max_bytes: 0` is a valid value that disables the disk cache entirely.
- Omitted: after `state_dir` validation, the default resolves to `max(75% of free bytes on the filesystem containing <state_dir>/cache/, 500 MiB)`. The cache directory is created first and statfs runs on that actual path, so the measurement hits the right filesystem. The probe is injectable (`FreeSpaceProbeFunc`) so tests do not depend on the host disk. The effective limit (and disabled state) is logged at startup.
**Size accounting** (no directory scans on the hot path)
- Migration `002` adds a `variant_content` table — processed variants were previously untracked anywhere — and a `last_accessed_at` column on `source_content`, both indexed. Total usage is two SUM queries.
- Stores record accounting rows; cache hits touch the LRU timestamps (same cost class as the existing per-request stats UPDATEs). The variant accounting insert is best-effort with a warning: the reconciliation pass (below) adopts any file that missed its row, and this keeps the pre-migration inline test schema working.
**Eviction policy: global LRU across both content classes**
- Candidates are the least-recently-used entries from `variant_content` and `source_content` (batched, 100 per class per pass, merged oldest-first by `COALESCE(last_accessed_at, fetched_at)`), evicted until usage is at or below the limit.
- Why global LRU: recency of actual use is the best cheap predictor of future use for a CDN-style cache, and treating both classes in one ordering avoids pathologies of class-priority schemes (e.g. evicting every variant before any cold source blob, which would tank hit rate, or the reverse, which would hoard stale sources). Byte-for-byte, the coldest data goes first regardless of what kind it is. LFU-style schemes need more bookkeeping for marginal gain at this scale.
- Reference safety (the multi-reference DoD case): evicting a source blob deletes ALL `source_metadata` rows referencing it plus its `source_content` row in a single transaction BEFORE the file is unlinked. A blob referenced by multiple source paths is only ever removed together with all of its references, and DB rows never point at deleted files (the crash window leaves at worst an orphaned file, which reconciliation sweeps). The JSON metadata sidecars for removed rows are deleted as well.
**Triggers, off the request path**
- A background goroutine (started in the handlers OnStart hook, stopped in OnStop) runs an eviction pass on a periodic ticker (5 min) and on write pressure: every store sends a non-blocking notification on a capacity-1 channel. Requests never wait on eviction.
- On startup the goroutine first reconciles accounting with the disk (off the hot path): adopts untracked variant files (size/mtime from disk, content type from the `.meta` sidecar), drops accounting rows whose files are missing, removes source blob files the DB does not know (unreachable, since lookups go through `source_metadata`), removes rows whose files are gone, and sweeps `.tmp-*` files older than an hour.
**`cache_max_bytes: 0` disables the disk cache**
- No cache directories are created, lookups always miss, `StoreSource`/`StoreVariant` are no-ops, no evictor runs; every request fetches and processes uncached. Verified end-to-end (below).
## Notes for review
- At the `imgcache.CacheConfig` layer, disabling is an explicit `DisableDiskCache` flag rather than `MaxBytes == 0`, because existing test fixtures construct `CacheConfig` without `MaxBytes` and rely on the legacy "no limit" behavior; per repo rules those tests were not touched. The config layer maps `cache_max_bytes: 0` to the flag in `handlers`. `MaxBytes == 0` at that layer means "no limit enforced" and is unreachable from production config (the computed default is always at least 500 MiB).
- The negative cache stays active in disabled mode: it is DB-backed (TTL-expired rows in SQLite), not part of the disk cache this issue bounds, and it protects against hammering failing upstreams. Flagging explicitly since the direction said "no cache reads, no cache writes" — I read that as the disk cache; happy to disable it too if intended.
- One deviation from pure red/green: after the red commit I extended the new-test fixture helper (`newEvictionTestCache`) to pass `DisableDiskCache: maxBytes == 0`, mirroring the production mapping, when the flag design emerged. Assertions were not touched; no pre-existing tests were modified.
- Sidecar files (`.meta`, metadata JSON) are not counted in usage; they are bounded by entry counts and small (tens of bytes to ~1 KiB per entry) while content bytes dominate. Documented here for transparency.
- Discovered while working: `Cache.Stats` reads the never-populated `output_content`/`request_cache` tables, so `TotalItems`/`TotalSizeBytes` are always 0. Out of scope here; filing as a separate issue.
## Verification
- TDD: commit `3963ec3` adds the failing tests first (18 new tests covering strict parsing, default computation with injected probe including floor and 75% branches, explicit-no-floor, zero-disables, size accounting, dedup accounting, LRU order, multi-reference blob eviction with the no-dangling-references invariant, under-limit no-op, write-pressure trigger, periodic trigger, reconciliation); implementation follows in `8cb09b6`/`bdd86a4` until green.
- `make check` green (all tests, lint 0 issues, fmt-check) at HEAD.
- Pinned CI lint gate: `docker build --target lint .` green (golangci-lint v2.10.1).
- End-to-end with the built binary:
- omitted key: startup logs `computed default cache size limit from free space` and `effective cache size limit` (75% of the test host's free space);
- `cache_max_bytes: banana`: exit 1 with `config key "cache_max_bytes": value "banana" is not an integer`;
- `cache_max_bytes: 0`: `cache_disabled=true` logged, two identical requests both fetch upstream (2 upstream fetches logged), 200 `image/jpeg` responses, no `cache/` directory created, only `state.sqlite3` in the state dir;
- enabled: second request served from cache (1 upstream fetch), `variant_content` and `source_content` rows match the on-disk file sizes.

Extracts the HTTP fetcher concern out of `internal/imgcache/` into its own `internal/httpfetcher/` package, per the plan in [issue #39](#39).
This is one of four planned extractions; only the fetcher is moved here so the diff stays reviewable. The remaining three (signature, magic, urlparser) will land in separate PRs.
## What moved
From `internal/imgcache/fetcher.go` and `internal/imgcache/mock_fetcher.go` into `internal/httpfetcher/`:
- `HTTPFetcher` type, its `New` constructor, and `Config` (formerly `FetcherConfig`) with `DefaultConfig`
- SSRF-safe dialer, `validateURL`, `isPrivateIP`, `isLocalhost`, `extractHost`
- Per-host connection semaphore (rate limiting) and `limitedReader`
- Content-type validation (`isAllowedContentType`, `detectContentTypeFromPath`)
- All related error values (`ErrSSRFBlocked`, `ErrUpstreamError`, `ErrUpstreamTimeout`, `ErrPayloadTooLarge`, `ErrDisallowedContentType`)
- All related constants (`DefaultFetchTimeout`, `DefaultMaxPayloadBytes`, `DefaultMaxConnectionsPerHost`, etc.)
- The `Fetcher` interface and `FetchResult` type (moved here to keep the import edge one-way: `imgcache` depends on `httpfetcher`, never the reverse)
- `MockFetcher` test helper
## Renames (no stuttering)
- `NewHTTPFetcher` → `httpfetcher.New`
- `FetcherConfig` → `httpfetcher.Config`
- `DefaultFetcherConfig` → `httpfetcher.DefaultConfig`
- `NewMockFetcher` → `httpfetcher.NewMock`
The `ServiceConfig.FetcherConfig` field name is retained — it describes what kind of config the field holds (not a stutter).
## Behavior
Pure refactor. No behavior changes. All existing tests pass; unit tests for the new package are included.
`docker build .` passes (fmt-check, lint, test, build).

- Add blank lines before return statements (nlreturn)
- Remove unused metaCacheMu field and sync import (unused)
- Rename unused groups parameter to _ (revive)
- Use StorageFilePerm constant instead of magic 0600 (mnd, gosec)
- Add nolint directive for vipsOnce global (gochecknoglobals)
Stats() was scanning 5 SQL columns (hit_count, miss_count,
upstream_fetch_count, upstream_fetch_bytes, transform_count) into
mismatched struct fields, causing HitRate to contain the integer
transform_count instead of a 0.0-1.0 ratio.
Simplify the query to only fetch hit_count and miss_count, then
compute TotalItems, TotalSizeBytes, and HitRate correctly.
Fixes#4
Define ContentHash, VariantKey, and PathHash types to replace
raw strings, providing compile-time type safety for storage
operations. Update storage layer to use typed parameters,
refactor cache to use variant storage keyed by VariantKey,
and implement source content reuse on cache misses.
FetchResult now includes:
- StatusCode: HTTP status from upstream
- FetchDurationMs: time to fetch from upstream
- RemoteAddr: upstream server address
SourceMetadata now stores:
- ContentLength: size from upstream
- FetchDurationMs: fetch timing
- RemoteAddr: for debugging
Image conversion log now includes:
- host: source hostname (was missing)
- path: source path (renamed from file)
- convert_ms: image processing time
- quality: requested quality setting
- fit: requested fit mode
Hot cache entries now store all data needed to serve a cache hit
without any database access:
- OutputHash (for file lookup)
- ContentType (for Content-Type header)
- SizeBytes (for Content-Length header)
Previously hot cache only stored OutputHash, causing empty
Content-Type headers on cached WebP responses.
- StoreOutput now returns output hash for immediate retrieval
- Cache misses now serve from disk file after storing (same as hits)
- Log served_bytes from actual io.Copy result (avoids stat calls)
- Remove ContentLength field usage for cache hits (stream from file)
- Fix tests to properly check all return values
