NodeAction.head_diff computes the publish diff between an outgoing head and its replacement -- default-locale title pair always, author/tags pairs and template/assets/abstract/ body flags only when changed, and a per-locale translation_diff with added/removed/changed status. It is a pure function of its two pages, shared by publish, rollback, and the future backfill, and reads translation rows directly so fallbacks never masquerade as content. publish entries carry via ("draft" or "revision"); restore_revision! is now transactional, takes the acting user, and logs through the same diff. Staged slug/parent changes applied at publish log a move entry with the path pair. Node creation logs a create entry with initial title and path. The draft-scoped translation_destroy writer is retired -- locale removal is recorded by the publish diff, where it becomes public fact. 2026-07-15T02:23:09Z erdgeist erdgeist@erdgeist.org 2026-07-14T23:41:34Z urn:sha1:d56155231814633e04f856d22646fea24ef97011 node_id/page_id/user_id are lookup and ordering only -- all three nullify on delete, so an entry outlives its actor and its subject. Everything that must survive those deletions lives in a mandatory metadata jsonb written once at creation: the actor's username, the node's human-readable name (pinned to the default locale), and action-specific extras such as publish's title from/to. NodeAction.record! is the single constructor, so every entry gets the same baseline metadata without each call site re-implementing it. occurred_at is one field for live and backfilled entries alike; inferred_from distinguishes them -- nil means witnessed at the moment it happened, populated names how a backfilled entry was estimated. Instrumented so far: publish (crediting the actual publisher, threaded through from the controller -- previously nobody had the act of publishing recorded anywhere), revert's discard_autosave and destroy_draft branches, and translation destroy. publish_draft! now runs in a transaction so the promotion and its log entry land together. The remaining verbs follow once this mechanism has proven itself.
