Keep another process's downloads when opening a library (closes #105 )

The download writer's temp files are now named .quak-<pid>-<random>.tmp. removeLeftoverTempFiles moves from the backup into the download module and deletes a .quak-*.tmp file only when the process ID in its name is no longer running; the content cache calls it at open() instead of deleting every temp file, so a download in progress in another process sharing the cache survives.

-Linting and testing are phases of the `Dockerfile`. The `lint` phase copies the
-repo into a digest-pinned node image and runs eslint and `prettier --check .`;
-the `test` phase does the same with the suite. `script/lint` and `script/test`
-each build one phase with `docker build --no-cache --target <phase>`. There is
-no host lint or test path: docker is required, and that also works where the

+Linting runs in a container, one way, everywhere. `script/lint` builds
+`Dockerfile.lint`, which copies the repo into a digest-pinned node image and
+runs eslint and prettier as build steps, so a successful build is a clean lint.
+There is no host lint path: docker is required to lint, and that also works
+where the docker daemon is remote and bind mounts are impossible.

-The last stage of the `Dockerfile` compiles the package, and it copies a file
-from each phase, so it cannot be built unless lint and the tests pass. That is
-why `script/cibuild` is a single `docker build`: it runs lint and the tests once
-each and then compiles.
+The formatting check is part of that, not a step beside it. `script/check` and
+`script/precommit` therefore call `script/lint` and stop; neither calls
+`script/fmt-check` as well, which would run prettier a second time over the same
+tree for the same verdict — and the weaker of the two, since the host's prettier
+is whatever the working tree has installed. So `make check` and the pre-commit
+hook both still fail on a badly formatted tree, and prettier runs exactly once
+in each. `test/packaging/lint-once.test.ts` asserts that count by walking the
+invocation graph, so a second pass cannot creep back in unnoticed.

+deliberately keeps `.gitignore` in the build context.
+
+Lint happens in exactly one place, which constrains the rest of the build.
+`script/check` calls `script/lint`, so `make check` cannot run inside a
+container without asking for docker inside docker. The image built from
+`Dockerfile` therefore runs `make test` and `make build` and does not lint;
+`script/cibuild` builds `Dockerfile.lint` first and that image second, so CI
+gets both verdicts.
+
+### Build epochs
+
+`script/lint` passes `--build-arg LINT_EPOCH="$(date +%s)"`, and `script/docker`
+and `script/cibuild` pass `--build-arg CHECK_EPOCH="$(date +%s)"`. Both
+Dockerfiles refuse to build without their argument. This is deliberate: on an
+unchanged tree Docker would otherwise serve the linter and test layers from
+cache, so nothing would run and the build would still exit 0 — a lint build over
+an untouched tree returns success in well under a second, having linted nothing.
+A changing epoch invalidates every layer below the guard on every invocation
+while leaving the dependency layers above them cached, and the missing-argument
+guard means a bare `docker build .` fails loudly instead of quietly reporting a
+green it did not earn: an unset build argument is the empty string, which is a

+  repos use a multistage build where linting runs in an independent stage based
+  on the `golangci/golangci-lint` image (pinned by hash). This stage runs
+  `make fmt-check` and `make lint` before the full build begins. The build stage
+  then declares an explicit dependency on the lint stage via
+  `COPY --from=lint /src/go.sum /dev/null`, which forces BuildKit to complete

-
-    **A stage that is not the last one in the file is built only when the final
-    stage's chain depends on it, or when `--target` names it.** That is why the
-    two gates are always invoked by name here, and why the final stage carries a
-    `COPY --from=` of a harmless file from each of them: without that edge a
-    plain `docker build .` builds the last stage alone and exits 0 having linted
-    and tested nothing.
-
-    **Every `docker build` in `script/` is tagged**, here and in
-    `script/cibuild` and `script/docker`. An untagged build leaves a dangling
-    image behind on every invocation, on every developer host and every CI
-    runner; a tagged one replaces the previous image.
-
-    Inside a phase the tool is invoked directly — `golangci-lint`, `go test`,
-    `eslint`, `prettier` — never through `make lint` or `script/test`, which are
-    themselves a `docker build` and would recurse into a daemon that does not
-    exist in a build step. Formatting is the exception and stays on the host:
-    `script/fmt` writes the working tree, and `script/fmt-check` is its
-    read-only twin.
-
-    **No lint verdict may come from a host invocation of the linter.** On a
-    shared host golangci-lint reads a result cache keyed on file content rather
-    than location, so a second checkout of the same content is served the first
-    one's findings, and a host-global lock in `$TMPDIR` makes concurrent runs
-    exit non-zero with `parallel golangci-lint is running` — a status a caller

-    org, in both directions. A container has its own cache, its own `TMPDIR` and
-    a digest-pinned binary, so neither is reachable.
-
- **Any build that runs checks is built with `--no-cache`.** Docker invalidates
-  a `COPY` layer only when the copied content changes, so on an unchanged tree
-  the check `RUN` is served from cache, nothing executes, and the build still
-  exits 0. Every `docker build` in `script/` therefore passes `--no-cache`:
-  `script/lint`, `script/test`, `script/cibuild` and `script/docker` are the
-  four, and there is no fifth — `script/check` runs the two gate phases and
-  `script/fmt-check`, and builds no image of its own. A bare `docker build .` is
-  not evidence that anything ran: a sub-second build reporting success is a
-  cache hit, not a result. Never invalidate by pruning — `docker builder prune`
-  and friends destroy a build cache shared with every other build on the host.
-
- **The gate phases are separate stages, and the build stage depends on both.**
-  The lint phase is based on the `golangci/golangci-lint` image (pinned by
-  hash), so lint failures surface in seconds rather than after a full compile,
-  and the test phase is based on the Go image. The canonical Go repo

    Key points:
-    - The lint phase uses the `golangci/golangci-lint` image directly (it has
-      both Go and the linter), so nothing needs installing.
-    - `COPY --from=<phase> /src/go.sum /dev/null` is a no-op copy whose only
-      purpose is the ordering edge. BuildKit runs stages in parallel by default,
-      and a stage nothing depends on is not built at all, so without these two
-      lines a red gate would not fail the build.
-    - Keep the runtime stage last, and if you add a stage after it, give it the
-      same two copies. A plain `docker build .` builds the last stage's chain
-      and nothing else.
+    - The lint stage uses the `golangci/golangci-lint` image directly (it
+      includes both Go and the linter), so there is no need to install the
+      linter separately.
+    - `COPY --from=lint /src/go.sum /dev/null` is a no-op file copy that creates
+      a stage dependency. BuildKit runs stages in parallel by default; without
+      this line, the build stage would not wait for lint to finish and a lint
+      failure might not fail the overall build.

+      The lint stage should not depend on the actual build output — it exists to
+      fail fast.
    - If the project requires CGO or system libraries for linting (e.g.
-      `vips-dev`), install them in the lint phase with `apk add`.
-    - `ARG VERSION=dev` is declared in the stage that compiles and supplied by

+      `vips-dev`), install them in the lint stage with `apk add`.
+    - The build stage runs `make test` after compilation setup. Tests run in the
+      build stage, not the lint stage, because they may require compiled
+      artifacts or heavier dependencies.

 - Every repo should have a Gitea Actions workflow (`.gitea/workflows/`) that
-  runs `script/cibuild` on push, and checks out the repo as its only other step.
-  That script bootstraps, runs the gate phases, and then builds the image, so a
-  successful run means every check passed; a bare `docker build .` does not
-  carry the same guarantee, because its gate phases may come from the cache. The
-  image build is uncached and so runs the gate phases a second time. That is the

 - `.gitignore` should be comprehensive from the start: OS files (`.DS_Store`),
-  editor files (`.swp`, `*~`), in-repo agent scratch directories (`.claude/`),
-  language build artifacts, and `node_modules/`. Fetch the standard `.gitignore`
-  from `https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/prompts/raw/branch/main/.gitignore` when
-  setting up a new repo. These patterns are written to `.gitignore`'s own
-  semantics, in which an unanchored pattern already matches at every depth; they
-  are not a `.dockerignore` and must not be transplanted into one unmodified.
-
- **`.dockerignore` does not use `.gitignore` semantics, and copying patterns
-  across unmodified leaves secrets in the build context.** Docker matches with
-  `moby/patternmatcher`: `filepath.Match` semantics plus a `**` extension, so
-  `*` does not cross `/` and a pattern without a leading `**/` is anchored at
-  the build-context root. A `.dockerignore` listing `.env`, `*.pem` and `*.key`
-  therefore excludes only the copies at the repository root, while `config/.env`
-  and `certs/server.key` still reach the context and can land in an image layer
-  — which is more dangerous than a short file with no secret patterns at all,
-  because it reads as solved and stops anyone looking. Give every
-  depth-independent pattern the `**/` prefix and leave only genuinely
-  root-anchored entries unprefixed: `.git`, and the repo's own host-built
-  binary, written `/myapp` and never `**/myapp`, which would also match
-  `cmd/myapp/` and delete the package directory from the context. Matching is
-  case-sensitive, and an ALL-CAPS twin per pattern still misses `Server.Key`, so
-  secret names use character ranges — `**/*.[kK][eE][yY]`, `**/*.[pP][eE][mM]`,
-  and likewise for `.envrc` and the extensionless SSH keys. Where such a pattern
-  also catches something the build needs, re-include it with a negation
-  (`!docs/example.env`); deleting the pattern reopens the exposure for every
-  other file it covers. Fetch the standard `.dockerignore` from
-  `https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/prompts/raw/branch/main/.dockerignore` and extend
-  it with the repo's own artifacts.
-
- **In-repo agent scratch belongs in both files, written to each file's own
-  semantics.** `.claude/` holds one worktree per in-flight agent — an entire
-  additional checkout of the repo — so under `COPY . .` the build context
-  inflates by a multiple of the repo and another session's unreviewed work can
-  be copied into an image layer. In `.gitignore` the entry is `.claude/`,
-  unanchored. In `.dockerignore` it is `.claude`, anchored and with **no** `**/`
-  prefix, because the prefixed form would also delete any nested directory of
-  that name from the build. Anchoring carries a known gap that the canonical
-  `.dockerignore` states in its own comment, since consuming repos receive the
-  file and not the tracker: the directory is created in the agent's working
-  directory, so a repo running agents in subdirectories still ships
-  `services/api/.claude/` and must add its own anchored entry there.
-
- **Excluding `.git` means `git describe` cannot run inside any build stage, and
-  it fails quietly there.** In a build stage there is no repository, so
-  `git describe` writes nothing to stdout, `-X main.Version=` comes out empty,
-  the binary reports no version at all, and the build still exits 0. Compute the
-  version on the host and thread it in as a build arg. `script/docker` and
-  `script/cibuild` do this, byte-identically across repos:
-
-    ```sh
-    # Own line: a failing command substitution inside an argument does not
-    # trip `set -e`, so the inline form degrades to an empty constant.
-    version="$(git describe --tags --always --dirty 2>/dev/null || true)"

-    docker build --no-cache \
-        --build-arg VERSION="$version" \
-        -t "$(script/projectname)" .
-    ```
-
-    `--always` makes an untagged repo yield an abbreviated commit hash rather
-    than failing, and the `[ -n "$version" ]` line is the single place the
-    fallback is applied — a live check that fires on a build from an export with
-    no `.git` and on a repository with no commits yet. Do not fold it into the
-    substitution as `|| echo unknown`, which makes the guard unreachable. The
-    Dockerfile's side is `ARG VERSION=dev` in the stage that compiles, declared
-    there because `ARG` is stage-scoped; passing `VERSION` to a repo whose
-    Dockerfile declares no such `ARG` is ignored and costs nothing, which is why
-    the scripts stay byte-identical. One consequence for CI: the standard
-    checkout action clones shallow and fetches no tags, so a repo that embeds a
-    tag-derived version must set `fetch-depth: 0` on its checkout step.
