- billboard.views.view_post adds viewer_is_owner + other_recipients context vars. is_real_invitee = (auth AND post has owner AND viewer != owner). Anon viewers + ownerless-post legacy path fall through to owner-style rendering (which renders empty gracefully via the at_handle / display_name AnonymousUser guards).
- other_recipients = post.shared_with.exclude(viewer) when invitee; .all() otherwise.
- post.html .post-header branches:
• viewer_is_owner: existing prose ("just me, @owner …" / "shared between {recipients} & me, @owner …").
• sole invitee: "shared with me, @viewer the {viewer.title}" + "created by @owner the {owner.title}".
• multi invitee: "shared with {other_recipients}" + "& me, @viewer the {viewer.title}" + "created by @owner the {owner.title}".
- lyric_extras at_handle + display_name: guard against AnonymousUser (no .email attribute) — return "" rather than crash. Preserves the Percival ch. 18 anon-views-ownerless-post path.
- 12 new ITs in test_post_invitee_view (context vars: viewer_is_owner, other_recipients exclude/include; template prose: sole + multi invitee phrasing, owner unchanged).
- 878 IT regression + 8 post-html FT regression green (1 Marionette flake on multi-run that passes in isolation).

- billboard.views.search_buds(GET /billboard/buds/search?q=...) — top-3 prefix match against request.user.buds via Q(username__istartswith) | Q(email__istartswith). Returns {buds: [{id, username, email}]}. Privacy: only the user's own buds are searched, no leak of strangers.
- _resolve_recipient(raw) helper resolves a free-form recipient (email if "@" present, else username, both case-insensitive). Wired into add_bud + share_post so #id_recipient accepts either form.
- share_post implicit auto-add (per-spec): when recipient is registered + first-time-shared, both directions of buds M2M get the link — request.user.buds.add(recipient) AND recipient.buds.add(request.user). Idempotent, no auto-add on reshare/self/unregistered.
- new bud-autocomplete.js shared module (apps/billboard/static/apps/billboard/) — bindBudAutocomplete(input, suggestionsEl, {searchUrl}). Mirrors sky.html birth-place picker: 250ms debounced fetch from MIN_CHARS=1, click-to-fill, Escape closes, click-outside closes, late-response drop. e.stopPropagation on suggestion-click so the bud-panel's outside-click handler doesn't fire and clear the input.
- SCSS .bud-suggestions / .bud-suggestion-item mirrors .sky-suggestions but position:fixed bottom:4rem (aligned above the bud panel, with overflow:hidden on the panel forcing the dropdown to live as a sibling rather than a child). Landscape breakpoints clear the navbar/footer 4rem sidebars, 8rem at min-width 1800px.
- both _bud_panel.html (post share) + _bud_add_panel.html (my_buds add) get the suggestions div sibling + script tags. Each panel's existing document click-outside handler now skips the suggestions container so a click inside doesn't close+clear. type="email" → type="text" since usernames are accepted; placeholder "friend@example.com or username".
- new test classes in test_buds.py: SearchBudsViewTest (6 — prefix match, cap-3, email prefix, non-bud leakproof, empty-q, anon redirect) + SharePostImplicitAutoAddTest (4 — sharer.buds += recipient, recipient.buds += sharer, username-typed share, unregistered no-add) + AddBudViewTest.test_add_resolves_username_too. test_my_buds.py FT adds test_autocomplete_suggests_buds_by_username_prefix. test_sharing.py placeholder assertion updated to "friend@example.com or username".
- 852 ITs (+11) + 5 my_buds FTs green.

- billboard.views.my_posts adds owner_posts_title (f"@{handle}'s Posts") + others_posts_title ("Posts by Others") to context. handle = owner.username or owner.email matches the navbar @-handle pattern.
- my_posts.html shell invocations use the new vars instead of in-template |add: filter chains.
- SCSS .applet-list .applet-list-entry > a: base color rgba(var(--terUser), 1), text-decoration none, font-weight bold; on :hover/:active color shifts to rgba(var(--ninUser), 1) + text-shadow 0 0 0.55rem rgba(var(--terUser), 0.7) for the lift halo. transition: text-shadow 0.15s ease.

- lyric/0005 RemoveField+AddField (RenameField doesn't rename the implicit M2M through table; field was new in 0004 so no data loss). Lyric.User.buddies → User.buds; related_name added_as_buddy → added_as_bud.
- applets/0007 renames Applet slug my-buddies → my-buds + name 'My Buddies' → 'My Buds'. UI rationale: BILLBUDDIES overflowed the page-header band; in-game term collapses to BILLBUDS.
- billboard/0006 alter Line.Meta.ordering = ('created_at', 'id') — was already in models.py, just generates the corresponding migration (formalizing the ordering decision from the May-8b refactor).
- global rename via sed: buddies → buds, buddy → bud across 16 files (templates, SCSS, JS, ITs, FTs, page object, view code). 4 file renames via git mv: my_buddies.html → my_buds.html, _applet-my-buddies.html → _applet-my-buds.html, _buddy_panel.html → _bud_panel.html, _buddy_add_panel.html → _bud_add_panel.html, _buddy.scss → _bud.scss. Test files renamed too: test_buddies.py → test_buds.py, test_my_buddies.py → test_my_buds.py, test_buddy_btn.py → test_bud_btn.py. core.scss @import 'buddy' → 'bud'.
- new shared partial templates/apps/applets/_partials/_applet-list-shell.html — vertical-rotated <h2> + scrollable <ul> aperture, parameterised via {% include %} so a single page can invoke it more than once. Params: shell_title, shell_items, shell_item_template, shell_list_id, shell_empty.
- my_buds.html: single shell invocation w. add-bud panel below (page_class page-billbuds).
- my_posts.html: two shell invocations (own posts + posts shared with me) inside .applet-list-page--two-up — portrait stacks them; landscape lays side-by-side via @media (orientation: landscape) flex-direction: row (page_class page-billposts).
- SCSS: drop the bottom-anchored .buds-page block; new shared .applet-list-page (extends %billboard-page-base, flex-column + padding) w. .applet-scroll inside (extends %applet-box) and .applet-list inside that (flex: 1, overflow-y: auto). .applet-list-page--two-up flips to row layout in landscape. Body class trio gains page-billposts.
- 841 ITs + 5 my_buds/my_posts FTs green.

- billboard/0005 adds Line.admin_solicited (BooleanField default False); RunPython backfills existing note_unlock Lines to True. Note.grant_if_new sets admin_solicited=True on its system prose.
- billboard.models post_save signal: any Line saved on a Post.kind=NOTE_UNLOCK without admin_solicited=True is deleted (defense-in-depth alongside the view guard).
- billboard.views.view_post hard-rejects POST on NOTE_UNLOCK kind (HTTP 403) — clean view-level contract; the post_save listener is the safety net for ORM/API paths that bypass it.
- templates/apps/billboard/post.html: NOTE_UNLOCK branch renders the input as readonly w. 'No response needed at this time' placeholder + no method/action; user_post branch keeps the regular composer. Buddy panel include guarded behind `{% if post.kind != 'note_unlock' %}` — friend invites don't apply to admin threads.
- SCSS: .post-line-form input.form-control[readonly]:focus uses --secUser glow (cooler than the regular --terUser composer focus).
- share_post: drop the iso-timestamp suffix on Line.text (just 'Shared with {email}'); author = request.user (anon legacy fallback to adman so AnonymousUser doesn't break the FK); re-share of an already-in-shared_with recipient is a silent no-op (no second Line, brief: null in JSON response). Buddy panel JS now reads data-sharer-name from server-rendered display_name so the optimistic _appendLine matches the post-refresh state.
- new ITs: test_admin_posts (PostRejectsAdminWritesTest, UnsolicitedLineListenerTest, NoteGrantSetsAdminSolicitedTest) — 7 tests; share_post tests rewritten for the new contract (drop ts, author=sharer, silent re-share dedup) — 12 tests; new FT test_admin_post_readonly w. AdminPostInputReadonlyTest + AdminPostHasNoBuddyBtnTest + UserPostInputUnaffectedTest — 4 tests. 827 ITs + 18 buddy/sharing FTs green.

Pre-compaction handoff for the bottom-left handshake btn that replaces the inline share form on post.html. The full spec lives in functional_tests/test_buddy_btn.py — running it as a red-first TDD checklist for the next agent (or future Disco) to pick up after compaction.
Scaffolding landed:
- functional_tests/test_buddy_btn.py — 16 tests across 6 classes covering presence-only-on-post.html (B1–B3), bottom-left fixed positioning matching kit-btn dimensions, slide-out panel structure (closed/open width, OK btn = .btn-confirm, recipient input left-padding clears the glyph), kit↔buddy mutual-exclusion via opacity, click-outside + Escape dismiss + clear, OK→async share creates Brief + appends Line + chips the recipient + closes the panel + clears the field, and post.html / my_posts.html body class picks up the aperture marker (page-billboard).
- templates/apps/billboard/_partials/_buddy_panel.html — the partial: <button id="id_buddy_btn"><i class="fa-solid fa-handshake"></i></button> + #id_buddy_panel housing #id_recipient and #id_buddy_ok (.btn.btn-confirm). Inline JS mirrors the game-kit.js click/escape/click-outside pattern, toggles html.buddy-open + .active on the btn, intercepts OK to POST share-post w. Accept:application/json (reuses C3.b shape — line_text + brief.to_banner_dict() + recipient_display), appends the chip + line in-DOM, Brief.showBanner shows the slide-down banner, _close clears the input.
- templates/apps/billboard/post.html — drops the inline #id_share_form / #id_recipient / SHARE-primary block + its JS; includes the buddy panel partial at the end of {% block content %}.
- billboard.views.view_post + my_posts now set page_class="page-billboard" so the body class hooks into the aperture SCSS group (the user noted post.html wasn't in that group; this brings it in).
- static_src/scss/_buddy.scss — new partial: #id_buddy_btn fixed bottom-left mirror of #id_kit_btn (3rem circle, secUser border, .active state, transition: opacity 0.15s); #id_buddy_panel slide-out spans calc(100vw - 3rem) (1.5rem each side w. landscape sidebar carve-outs), transform: scaleX(0)→1 from left center on html.buddy-open, opacity 0→1, the recipient input gets padding 0 1rem 0 3.5rem so the glyph doesn't overlap. Mutual exclusion: html.buddy-open #id_kit_btn → opacity:0; html:has(#id_kit_bag_dialog[open]) #id_buddy_btn → opacity:0 (uses :has() per project convention; no JS-side kit-open class needed).
- core.scss imports buddy after game-kit.
15/16 FTs green; the lone red is BuddyBtnOkSubmitsAsyncShareTest.test_ok_creates_brief_appends_line_and_chip — server flow works (Brief is created, recipient chip + line append in DOM both visible in the screendump), only the .note-banner injection isn't surfacing on post.html. Likely cause: note.js inserts after the first <h2>, but post.html's only h2 is the rotated navbar header which is position:absolute, so the banner's geometry parents to that and falls outside the visible aperture. Two clean follow-ups for the post-compaction agent: (a) make Brief.showBanner pick a different anchor when h2.parentElement is position:absolute, or (b) define a #id_brief_banner_anchor in base.html under the page content and have showBanner prefer it.
Also pending for post-compaction: update functional_tests.post_page.PostPage.share_post_with() to drive the new buddy-btn flow (click btn → type → click OK → wait for chip) so the legacy test_sharing FT keeps working — currently it still operates on the inline form selectors that no longer exist.

Closes the C3 brief sprint. Three event sources (note unlock, share invite, login messages) now route through the Brief slide-down, & the legacy .alert-success/.alert-warning rendering in base.html is retired.
C3.b — share-post async Line + Brief:
- billboard.share_post detects Accept: application/json. JSON path appends a Line (text="Shared with X at <isoformat>", isoformat carries microseconds so two rapid shares of the same email don't collide on Line.unique_together(post,text)), spawns a Brief(kind=SHARE_INVITE) for the sharer, and returns {brief: brief.to_banner_dict() | None, line_text, recipient_display}. Sharer-shares-with-themselves stays a silent no-op (response carries brief: null). Legacy form-submit path preserved for non-AJAX (still redirects + flashes the privacy-safe message — kept for older FTs / no-JS fallback).
- billboard.Brief.to_banner_dict() (moved from dashboard.views helper to a model method) shapes the JSON the banner JS consumes.
- post.html: share form intercepted by JS — fetches POST w. Accept:application/json, then appends `data.line_text` as the next row in #id_post_table, calls Brief.showBanner(data.brief), and (when registered) appends a fresh `<span class="post-recipient">` to the new #id_post_recipients box. No page reload — the alert-success flash is gone.
- 10 new ITs (SharePostAsyncTest + SharePostLegacyRedirectTest) cover the JSON path, line append, brief creation w. SHARE_INVITE kind, registered/unregistered recipient behaviour, sharer-self skip, line dedupe via timestamp, and that the legacy form-submit redirect path still works.
- functional_tests.test_sharing line numbering updated: the share now records its own Line so the alice-reply lands at row 3 instead of 2.
C3.c+d — magic-link confirmation + invalid-link error use Brief banner styling:
- base.html's {% if messages %} block stops rendering .alert-success/.alert-warning divs. Instead each message renders as a transient Brief-styled banner: <div class="note-banner note-banner--message note-banner--{{level_tag}}"> with .note-banner__body / __description carrying the message text and a .btn-cancel NVM that removes the banner via inline onclick. No DB Brief row; no FYI; no square. Same Gaussian-glass look as note-unlock + share-invite Briefs.
- _note.scss adds the note-banner--message variant (full-opacity description) + note-banner--error/--warning border-color override (priRd 0.6) so the invalid-link banner reads as red/abandon.
C3.e — .alert-success/.alert-warning retired in markup; the SCSS class blocks aren't referenced anywhere else in templates so they sit dormant (left in place — base form styling keeps .form-control etc. working; no need to ripple into _base.scss).
Banner JS (note.js / Brief module) was untouched in C3.b+c+d — the Brief.showBanner contract from C3.a already handles all three kinds (NOTE_UNLOCK / USER_POST / SHARE_INVITE) by reading kind off the brief; the message-banner path doesn't go through showBanner because there's no Brief row.
Tests: 218 dashboard+billboard+api ITs + 322 lyric+dashboard+billboard ITs + 2 sharing FTs + 9 my_notes FTs + 1 Jasmine FT all green. Existing lyric.test_views login message-text assertions unchanged (they pull from messages framework — not the rendered HTML — so the markup swap doesn't affect them).

Brief is the slide-down-banner record that connects an event (a Line freshly appended to a Post) to a user who needs to see it. It's the C3 attachment point for note-unlock + share-invite + future event sources; the banner JS (C3) reads the Brief shape to render kind-specific affordances. C2 lays the schema + the FYI-read contract; C3 hooks the senders.
Schema (billboard.Brief):
- owner FK→lyric.User (related_name='briefs') — required; whose attention this is for
- post FK→billboard.Post (related_name='briefs') — required; where FYI navigates
- line FK→billboard.Line (related_name='briefs', null=True) — the appended Line that triggered the Brief; nullable for share-invite-style flows where the Line write races behind the Brief
- is_unread BooleanField default=True — flips on view_post GET
- kind CharField (note_unlock | user_post | share_invite, default=user_post) — drives banner-side affordances
- title CharField (blank=True) — banner display title
- created_at DateTimeField (default=timezone.now) — Meta.ordering='-created_at'
view_post (the post-detail GET) now bulk-updates is_unread=False on every Brief where owner == request.user AND post == our_post AND is_unread=True. POST (the compose-a-new-Line path) intentionally does NOT mark read — the user is authoring, not reviewing.
Tests: BriefModelTest (7) covers defaults, kind choices include all three values, line nullability, owner+post requiredness, title field, __str__ shape. ViewPostMarksReadTest (5) covers the GET flips owner's unread Brief to read; doesn't flip other users' Briefs on the same post; doesn't flip Briefs on unrelated posts; idempotent for already-read; POST request does NOT mark read.
Auto migration billboard/0002_brief creates the table. 801-test IT regression green (789 + 12 new).

The Post/Line models always read more like billboard tenants than dashboard ones (1st-person personal vs. 2nd-person provenance feed); the upcoming Brief model needs them in the billboard namespace as the canonical surface they FK into. C1 is a pure relocation w. zero new behavior: 789 ITs + 20 sky/Post FTs green against the moved code.
- billboard.models adds Post (owner + shared_with) + Line (text + post FK), schema mirroring the legacy dashboard models 1:1; Post.get_absolute_url now reverses to `billboard:view_post`.
- billboard.forms adds LineForm + ExistingPostLineForm (moved from dashboard.forms; dashboard/forms.py removed).
- billboard.views absorbs new_post / view_post / share_post / my_posts (templates rendered from apps/billboard/post.html + my_posts.html).
- billboard.urls adds the namespaced routes: /billboard/new-post, /billboard/post/<uuid>/, /billboard/post/<uuid>/share-post, /billboard/users/<uuid>/. dashboard.urls drops the corresponding entries.
- _applet-my-posts + _applet-new-post URL refs now use the billboard: namespace; templates/apps/dashboard/{post,my_posts}.html removed.
- api/serializers + api/views + api/tests/integrated/test_views imports flip dashboard.models → billboard.models (PostSerializer / PostDetailAPI / PostLinesAPI / PostsAPI all retain identifiers — the model rename to Brief lands in C2).
- dashboard/tests/integrated/test_{models,views,forms} + dashboard/tests/unit/test_{models,forms} swap imports; test_views URL strings flip /dashboard/post/ → /billboard/post/, /dashboard/new_post → /billboard/new-post, /dashboard/users/ → /billboard/users/, share_post → share-post (path) / billboard:share_post (reverser). Tests stay in dashboard.tests/ for now — relocation TBD.
- functional_tests/my_posts_page.py URL string flips to /billboard/users/.
- Auto-generated migrations: billboard/0001_initial (CreateModel Post + Line), dashboard/0003_remove_post_* (drops legacy Post + Line), drama/0004_alter_gameevent_verb (incidental — choices field caught up).
This commit drops the dashboard Post/Line tables w/o data preservation; user has confirmed staging-side wipe is acceptable. C2 introduces the Brief model + read-tracking + slide-down banner unification. C3 hooks Note-unlock + share-post-invite + magic-link / invalid-link `messages` calls into the new Brief / banner pipeline.

- billboard/views.py _billboard_context: `.exclude(verb=SIG_READY, data__retracted=True)` was silently dropping every SIG_READY event whose data had no `retracted` key — `WHERE NOT (NULL AND verb='sig_ready')` evaluates to NULL via JSON_EXTRACT, which the SQL engine treats as "row not satisfying WHERE", so the row was excluded. Fix: pull a 100-row buffer w. only the SIG_UNREADY exclude at the SQL level, then post-filter retracted SIG_READY in Python before slicing to 36; PostgreSQL handles the lookup correctly so this is a SQLite-only manifestation that explained intermittent "No events yet" in Most Recent Scroll
- CLAUDE.md gotchas: new entry warning that `.exclude(data__key=value)` / `.filter(data__key=value)` on SQLite JSONField bites on missing keys; if the predicate must require key existence, post-filter in Python
- functional_tests/test_game_kit.py PronounsAppletFlowTest: end-to-end profile-wide pronoun flip — start on per-room billscroll seeing "their" cognates, navigate to Game Kit, click bawlmorese card, assert guard portal active w. "yo/yo/yos" preview, click OK, navigate to billboard + see Most Recent Scroll re-rendered w. "yos", navigate back to billscroll + see same flip; covers the whole render-time-pronoun-resolution path on real DOM

- _applets.html wraps menu + container in one #id_billboard_applets_wrapper div; form's hx-target is now the wrapper, so OK no longer leaves a stale duplicate menu in the DOM (which previously caused the next OK to revert prior toggles)
- toggle_billboard_applets passes full context (recent_room, recent_events, viewer, my_rooms) via factored _billboard_context helper, so Most Recent + My Scrolls keep their content after a toggle instead of falling through to the empty fallback
- applets.js: register id_billboard_applets_wrapper as an applet container so post-swap menu cleanup runs
- BillboardAppletsTest: portrait viewport in setUp; FT covers content preservation, no-revert on second toggle, & post-refresh state
- 4 new ITs: Most Recent renders Coin-on-a-String after toggle; My Scrolls renders room name; response has single menu div; second toggle preserves prior hidden state
