v.1.2

Release date: 2026-03-18

Summary

This release stabilizes feed/state behavior, introduces stronger collector lifecycle and cadence controls, and expands source coverage.

Highlights

Collector state and lifecycle

• Added alert lifecycle transitions to prevent first-miss drops:
• active -> cooldown -> stale -> archived
• Added configurable lifecycle controls:
• ALERT_COOLDOWN_HOURS
• ALERT_STALE_DAYS
• ALERT_ARCHIVE_DAYS
• Preserved alert continuity across full collection runs (no abrupt critical count collapse).

Feed cadence and per-source windows

• Added rolling per-source fetch cap for stream sources:
• RECENT_WINDOW_PER_SOURCE (default 20)
• Added HTML scrape cadence gate with probe behavior:
• HTML_SCRAPE_INTERVAL_HOURS (default 24)

Source run tracking

• Added persistent source-run tracking and watermark persistence in SQLite:
• source_runs
• source_watermarks
• Improved source operational state visibility and run traceability.

New/expanded integrations

• Added integrations for:
• USGS GeoJSON
• NASA EONET
• Feodo Tracker
• GDELT

UI and feed stability

• Fixed feed selection reset behavior during/after full runs.
• Improved feed count behavior under filtering and refresh cycles.
• Applied UI lint/cleanup and map/overlay refinements.

Discovery and hygiene

• Added global stop-word filtering with defaults.
• Improved FIRST.org API caching and header handling.
• Hardened Docker context to avoid accidental local runtime DB inclusion (registry/sources.db ignored).

Deploy/update behavior

• Installer update flow now refreshes runtime files directly from repo refs (no dependency on git pull for update mode), including:
• docker-compose.yml
• .env.example
• docker/Caddyfile

Docker/Env defaults added

• RECENT_WINDOW_PER_SOURCE=20
• HTML_SCRAPE_INTERVAL_HOURS=24
• ALERT_COOLDOWN_HOURS=24
• ALERT_STALE_DAYS=14
• ALERT_ARCHIVE_DAYS=90
• REMOVED_RETENTION_DAYS=14

Notes

• v.1.2 tag points to the cleaned main history for this release.
