novelfire.net responds with Content-Encoding: br when the scraper
advertises 'gzip, deflate, br'. The client only handled gzip, so
Brotli-compressed bytes were fed raw into the HTML parser producing
garbage — empty titles, zero chapters, and selector failures.
Added github.com/andybalholm/brotli and wired it into GetContent
alongside the existing gzip path.
Upgrade DirectHTTPClient to send a full Chrome 124 header set
(Sec-Fetch-*, Accept-Encoding with gzip decompression, Referer,
Cache-Control) to reduce bot-detection false positives on WAFs.
Add SCRAPER_PROXY env var to route all outbound scrape requests
through a configurable proxy (residential or otherwise); falls back
to the standard HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY env vars.
- Add Kokoro-FastAPI TTS integration to the chapter reader UI:
- Browser-side MSE streaming with paragraph-level click-to-start
- Voice selector, speed slider, auto-next with prefetch of the next chapter
- New GET /ui/chapter-text endpoint that strips Markdown and serves plain text
- Add ranking page (novelfire /ranking scraper, WriteRanking/ReadRankingItems
in writer, GET /ranking + POST /ranking/refresh + GET /ranking/view routes)
with local-library annotation and one-click scrape buttons
- Add StrategyDirect (plain HTTP client) as a new browser strategy; the
default strategy is now 'direct' for chapter fetching and 'content'
for chapter-list URL retrieval (split via BROWSERLESS_URL_STRATEGY)
- Fix chapter numbering bug: numbers are now derived from the URL path
(/chapter-N) rather than list position, correcting newest-first ordering
- Add 'refresh <slug>' CLI sub-command to re-scrape a book from its saved
source_url without knowing the original URL
- Extend NovelScraper interface with RankingProvider (ScrapeRanking)
- Tune scraper timeouts: wait-for-selector reduced to 5 s, GotoOptions
timeout set to 60 s, content/scrape client defaults raised to 90 s
- Add cover extraction fix (figure.cover > img rather than bare img.cover)
- Add AGENTS.md and .aiignore for AI tooling context
- Add integration tests for browser client and novelfire scraper (build
tag: integration) and unit tests for chapterNumberFromURL and pagination
