Auth via paskia-js: profile() dialog, apiFetch/apiJson in admin components

- Banner-corner auth link is now a button opening paskia-js's profile()
  dialog (handles login too); auth re-probed when the dialog closes.
- Editor/analytics components call /_api via apiFetch/apiJson: an
  expired session opens the login dialog and the request retries.
- pagerite.js: task-checkbox toggle uses apiJson (explicit edit attempt,
  reverts on any failure incl. cancelled login); auth probes use
  fetchJson (never a dialog); page-cache/navigation stay on plain fetch.
- Add the paskia npm dependency; document the convention.

-## What is collected
+## Raw records
+
+The store is deliberately close to an access log: two append-only lists plus
+shared metadata. **Nothing is classified when recorded** — whether a client
+turns out to be a reader, a crawler or a scanner is decided by
+`Store.display()` from the raw events, so the stored data survives any future
+change to the classification rules.
+
+Each `Get` record (one per served document):
+
+- `t` — timestamp of the request,
+- `path` — full request path, query string included (e.g. `/.env?x=1`),
+- `status` — the true HTTP status of the response (200, or 404 for a category
+  placeholder or a missing page),
+- `ref` — external https origin of the `Referer`, `""` for direct/internal
+  (same-origin referers are dropped by the recorder),
+- `pre` — true for idle-time link preloads from pagerite.js
+  (`x-pagerite-preload` header): never counted as a view, crawler hit or
+  abuse — recorded only so a navigation later served from the in-memory page
+  cache (which issues no GET at all) can be attributed this GET's status,
+- `lang` — rendered content language of the served document (the resolved
+  language of a localized page), `""` for non-localized responses (404
+  probes, reserved paths),
+- `client` — 6-byte blake3 hash referencing `Analytics.clients`.
+
+304 revalidation responses return before recording and are not logged.
+
+Each `Msg` record (one per pagerite.js activity message over `/_ws`):
+
+- `t` — timestamp,
+- `client` — 6-byte blake3 hash referencing `Analytics.clients`,
+- `fr` — path of the page the activity happened on (`""` for the initial
+  load),
+- `to` — navigation target (validated at record time: internal slug path or
+  external https URL; anything else is dropped — sanitation, not
+  classification),
+- `read` — active seconds spent on `fr` since the previous report,
+- `lang` — rendered language reported by the client for the page the
+  activity happened on (the page's `<html lang>`; `""` from old clients).
+
+Each `Client` record (shared by every event, keyed by hash):
+
+- `ip` — visitor IP address (first `X-Forwarded-For` hop, or direct peer),
+- `host` — reverse-DNS host name for `ip` when resolvable, else `""`,
+- `lang` — first `Accept-Language` tag, lowercased (e.g. `"en-us"`),
+- `country` — two-letter country code.  Initially derived from the
+  `Accept-Language` region subtag, but overwritten by the DB-IP MMDB result
+  when a database is available,
+- `city` — city name from the DB-IP MMDB lookup, when available,
+- `ua` — raw `User-Agent` string,
+- `hide` — true for admin clients (`hide` message field): everything this
+  client ever did is recorded but excluded from every statistic and from the
+  viewer payload.  This is the one flag set at record time — it is a client
+  property, not a classification.
+
+The viewer payload adds one display-time field to each client, never
+persisted (stored records keep the default and old data always follows the
+current uarite version):
+
+- `uarite` — the `uarite.UA` dataclass from parsing the raw UA
+  (`pretty`/`engine`/`os`/`provider`/`kind`/`url`): the crawler name for
+  bots,
+  with a category suffix only where a provider runs crawlers of more than
+  one kind (`GPTBot (AI)` vs `OAI-SearchBot (search)`, `Googlebot (search)`
+  vs `Google-Extended (AI)`; single-kind providers stay plain: `Facebook`,
+  `WhatsApp`), `Browser/major OS` on the desktop, the device where that is
+  the relevant information (iPhone reports its iOS version, Android phones
+  their model instead of the OS), otherwise the raw string; `url` is the
+  crawler's info page when uarite knows one (rendered as a 🔗 link after the
+  pretty UA in the viewer), `kind` drives the bot classification.
+
+A reverse-DNS lookup is attempted for each new client and the result, when
+available, is stored as `host`; local/reserved/multicast addresses are
+skipped.  If a DB-IP MMDB file (`dbip-*.mmdb` or `dbip-*.mmdb.gz`) is present
+in the working directory, it is loaded at startup and used to look up
+`country`/`city`.  These lookups run in background tasks after the event is
+stored, so WebSocket message handling is never delayed.  Only the downloaded
+`.mmdb.gz` is kept on disk (in the working directory, ignored by git); it is
+decompressed into RAM when opened.  The
+CLI flag `--dbip` (`uv run pagerite --dbip`) downloads the latest
+`dbip-city-lite-YYYY-MM.mmdb.gz` from DB-IP at startup (in the app lifespan,
+before the MMDB is opened), skipping the download when the local database is
+already current and removing older versions after an update; without the flag
+only an existing file is used.
+
+## What the client sends
 
 The client (`pagerite.js`) keeps a WebSocket connection to `/_ws` for the
 whole browsing session and sends activity messages over it — JSON text
 frames matching the server's `Ping` msgspec struct with the fields `fr`
 (source path), `to` (navigation target), `read` (active seconds on `fr`
-since the last report) and `hide`; falsy fields are omitted. One channel

+transition applies the new `<html lang>` only after the ping goes out) and
+`hide`; falsy fields are omitted. One channel

-  is persisted in the JSON file; the plain-404 counters are RAM-only.  In the
-  viewer, abuse hits are grouped by IP (never by client/UA — scanners
-  randomize theirs) in a separate "Abuse" table.  Identical paths are
-  collapsed into one entry with their hit count.  The 404 probes ("paths
-  abused": flagged paths that triggered classification first, then other
-  404s) are kept in a separate column from the real articles the abuser
-  actually read ("articles read": document GETs that returned 200, not the
-  404 fallback rendering — rendered as trail links like the visitor and

-missing data rather than dropped.  The client-hash → visit map and the IP →
-entry-referer/UTM tables are in-memory only; client metadata is stored in
-`Analytics.clients` keyed by the client hash.
 
-Each `Client` record:
+- **Visits and sessions**: a client's messages are grouped into visits
+  chronologically; a new visit starts after 30 minutes of inactivity
+  (`_SESSION_GAP`). A fresh page load with an already-open visit (second
+  tab) extends it, logging a `(direct)` transition. The visit's trail holds
+  first-seen targets in order; `read` updates accumulate active seconds on
+  the trail item matching `fr` (preferring the item whose language matches
+  the report, so seconds after a language switch land on the new-language
+  step). Each trail item's HTTP status comes from
+  the client's latest GET for that path — preloads included, which is what
+  allows 404 pages to render red in the viewer even when the navigation
+  itself was served from the page cache. Each trail item also carries the
+  rendered language: the client's report, for the entry page falling back
+  to its GET's rendered language (old clients don't send one); a page
+  re-visited in a different language becomes a distinct trail step instead
+  of merging into the existing item. The entry page's referer and
+  `utm_*` tags come from the GET that loaded it (within 10 s before the
+  first message).
+- **Crawler hits**: a document GET no activity message matched within
+  `_CRAWLER_TIMEOUT` (10 s) is a crawler hit — plain bots that only fetch
+  documents never register as visits. JS-running crawlers (Googlebot,
+  GoogleOther, Applebot, ...) do connect and send messages, but their UA
+  gives them away (`_is_bot_ua`, backed by `uarite.uaparse` — which
+  also knows the disguised ones: facebookexternalhit, Google-Extended,
+  WhatsApp, ...): their messages are ignored at display
+  time, so their GETs never match and land in the crawler list too. Real-
+  browser bots whose UA does not match are caught by engagement: a visit
+  whose total reported reading time is under 5 seconds (`_MIN_VISIT_READ`;
+  durations are client-provided and trusted — such bots report 0–2 s) is
+  reclassified as crawler hits, one per internal trail page, and counts in
+  no visit aggregate. No source-IP verification is done: a spoofed bot UA
+  merely lands in the crawler stats, and scanners that probe telltale paths
+  are caught by the abuse rules regardless. In the viewer, crawler hits are
+  grouped by client hash and shown as a trail of pages, preceded by the
+  referer when there is one (rendered with its favicon like visit
+  referers). The crawler table lists the most recent crawler first, with
+  the most active as a tie-breaker.
+- **Abuse (scanner) hits**: a 404 on a telltale path — an empty URL segment
+  (`//foo` — no real client generates those), any segment starting with a
+  dot (`/.env`, `/.git/config`) or ending in `.php` — classifies the source
+  IP as abuse, and ten plain 404s within one hour (`_ABUSE_404_WINDOW`) on
+  paths that don't resolve to a menu node do too. Two exemptions keep
+  legitimate traffic out: RFC 8615 well-known URIs (`/.well-known/…` —
+  browsers and services probe them, e.g. Chrome's devtools fetch of
+  `appspecific/com.chrome.devtools.json`) are never telltale and never
+  count toward the threshold, and category placeholders return 404 but are
+  real menu nodes, so they never count either. The window keeps a
+  long-time reader's slowly accumulating misses from ever crossing the
+  threshold — scanners spray in bursts. Hidden (admin) clients never
+  trigger classification: editing means visiting not-found pages, since
+  that is where the create pen lives. Once an IP is classified, **all** its document GETs are shown in the abuse list —
+  including any that arrived before classification, since the raw log keeps
+  everything — and its activity messages are ignored. In the viewer, abuse
+  hits are grouped by IP (never by client/UA — scanners randomize theirs)
+  in a separate "Abuse" table, split by the recorded status: the 404 probes
+  ("paths abused" — flagged paths that triggered classification first, then
+  other 404s, shown verbatim with query strings) versus the real articles
+  the abuser actually read ("articles read" — the 200 document GETs,
+  rendered as trail links like the visitor and crawler tables, query string
+  stripped). Raw User-Agent strings are shown one per line with their
+  occurrence counts, and the full lists are click-to-copy.

A lone `{name}` / `{name: args}` line is a block directive: a core rule turns it into a `directive` token (render instance only — the verbatim parser keeps the plain paragraph so segments/chunks see the placeholder source), and the render rule delegates to the resolvers passed as `render(directives=...)`, leaving the source literal where no resolver applies (e.g. the editor preview of a page that does not exist yet). Built in: `{dates}` expands to the article's published/updated dateline (`p.dateline`, from `Node.created`/`modified`, registered by `render()` when `created` is given); views.py resolves `{cards}` — the page's published children, one card each (on the front page: the other top-level pages) — and `{cards: path path/* path/** ...}` (space-separated: a plain path renders that page alone, `path/*` its published children, `path/**` all published descendant pages; a page-less item is represented by its first leaf page, the nav-link logic) into the same card-row markup as category pages (`.cards.wide`, a boundary block outside the column segments). A page with any `{cards}` tag drops the automatic end-of-page child cards; multiple tags each render their own row. Code fences take pandoc-style brace attributes on the info line (` ```{.python .wide #id key=val} ` — the first class is the language when no bare language word precedes the braces) as well as a trailing `{...}` line; both land on the `<pre>`, the `<code>` keeps only the language class.
 
 `render()` returns a `Rendered(html, multicol)`: the article content segmented for the column layout (there is no wrapper div — segments and bare blocks are direct `<article>` children) — h1/h2 headings and `.wide` blocks stand bare, the runs between them become `<div class="colseg">` (margin-breakout boxes — `.margin`, `::: aside` — stay inside the segment at their anchor point; the CSS positions them out of flow into the side zone) (plus `.cols` on segments with enough text in at least two paragraphs or one long enough to split across columns, `::: nocols` opting out; in column segments, paragraphs past `BREAKABLE_TEXT` visible characters are marked `.breakable` so they may split across columns), and `multicol` flags bodies long enough to columnize (visible-text thresholds, code excluded). `views.py` puts the class on the article; pagerite.css takes it from there (at most two columns, the left-margin breakout, all viewport adaptation).

 Public page entry; runs fetch-navigation (backed by an in-memory page cache: every visible internal link is fetched once at load and clicks are then served from JS with no fetch — the current page itself is not refetched, it enters the cache when navigated to — and the editors' `loadPlain` keeps the cache current via a `pagerite:page-fetched` event; articles are `cache-control: no-cache` on the wire). Editors can drop the entire cache with the `pagerite:drop-page-cache` event when site-wide or page changes (theme, headings, structure, banners, etc.) invalidate the cached HTML of other pages; `main.js` triggers a fresh `pagerite:preload-pages` pass when the editor panel closes so navigation is fast again. Navigation that starts while the editor is open bypasses the cache and fetches the target page on demand. Also runs scroll-reveal, a scroll-driven section hash (the location hash tracks the h1/h2 above the viewport middle via replaceState — removed above the first tagged heading and at the very top, never set on unscrollable pages), OverlayScrollbars on `document.body` (floating, auto-hiding scrollbars that never reserve layout space or shift the page when appearing; native scroll APIs like `window.scrollTo` keep working; themed via the `--os-*` variables in pagerite.css), brand shrink-to-fit (the themed size is the maximum; JS reduces the font-size so a long brand or narrow viewport still fits one line), nav condense-to-fit (the top nav stays on one row: link gaps shrink first, then the side padding, then the font size; `flex-wrap: wrap` remains the no-JS fallback), code copy buttons, click-to-enlarge on article figure images (a full-viewport lightbox with the caption, closed by click or Esc), and the auth check.

Admins also get the page/banner edit pens and a site-settings pen, plus a `modulepreload` warm-up of the editor bundle (the hashed asset is immutable, so it costs nothing).

+The editor/analytics components (everything except pagerite.js and main.js) make their `/_api` calls through paskia-js's `apiFetch`/`apiJson` instead of plain `fetch`: when a call gets a 401/403 carrying an `auth.iframe` hint (expired session), the login dialog opens in place and the request retries transparently after authentication. pagerite.js uses `apiJson` only for the task-checkbox toggle (ticking a box is an explicit edit attempt, so a login dialog is welcome there; any failure — including a cancelled login — reverts the checkbox) and `fetchJson` for its auth probes (plain fetch with JSON handling and errors on non-OK, never a dialog); page-cache and navigation fetches stay on plain `fetch`, so anonymous visitors never get a login popup uninvited.
 
 Asset wiring differs by mode. In dev the backend links the Vite dev-server URLs (`pagerite:editor-src`/`-css`/`pagerite:analytics-src` meta tags, `<link>` stylesheets) and Vite injects the entry CSS from JS for hot reloads. In production there are no pagerite meta tags: all page assets are inlined into the document — stylesheets as `<style>` elements in `<head>` (fixed order: base, theme, banner design, page transition, entry sheets, custom CSS last), module scripts as inline `<script>`s at the end of the body (relative chunk imports are rewritten to absolute `/_assets/` paths) — and the on-demand bundles' URLs ride in a `<script type="application/json" id="pagerite-assets">` config. The editor bundle always stays external, imported on demand when a pen is opened. Every stylesheet element carries a stable id so fetch-navigation and the site editor can sync `<head>` positionally across swaps (the analytics sheet exists on `/_a` only and is added/removed as you navigate). The analytics entry is inlined into the `/_a` page itself; pagerite.js re-creates that script element after fetch-navigating there (inline scripts don't execute on a DOM swap) and calls the module's exposed unmount before swapping away.
