+A recent read is no longer sufficient on its own. A message send re-reads the
+thread immediately before sending and refuses with `409 thread_changed` unless
+it is still the exact thread that was read, which is the guard LinkedIn has
+always had and WhatsApp did not: a 30-minute read window is satisfied just as
+comfortably by a conversation that moved 29 minutes ago as by one nobody has
+touched, and a reply that arrived in between is precisely when a draft stops
+being the right thing to send. The comparison is a hash over the page that was
+read, taken at the same item limit, so the re-read has to match message for
+message. A chat whose most recent read predates this guard carries no such hash
+and is refused with `428 read_before_send_required` until it is read again,
+rather than waved through on a timestamp that cannot answer the question. If the
+re-read itself fails, the send is refused with
+`502 thread_preflight_unavailable`: whether the thread changed is then unknown,
+and unknown is not permission. All three refusals happen before anything is
+reserved, so none of them costs send budget.
+
+A provider answer this process cannot read counts as a re-read that failed, not
+as an empty conversation. Only the two documented list envelopes are hashed;
+anything else yields no hash at all, so a read that hits a drifted shape records
+no authorization (the next send is refused at `428`) and a re-read that hits one
+refuses at `502` rather than being compared. That distinction is the whole
+guard: hashing an unrecognised answer to the hash of an empty thread would let a
+read and a re-read that had both seen nothing agree with each other and satisfy
+the requirement that a human looked at the conversation.

+through `sendWhatsAppMessage` and through the LinkedIn preflight and write path,
+so a scheduled message clears every guard a live send clears, including the

+moment it was written. Scheduling is refused with
+`428 read_before_send_required` unless this session has already read that exact
+chat, at `limit` 10 or more on LinkedIn, because the row has to carry a hash of
+the conversation it was written against. That hash is read from the recorded
+read and cannot be supplied by the caller: `watermark` and `item_limit` are
+refused by name rather than accepted and overwritten, since a caller that
+believes it set them believes something false. At fire time the worker re-reads
+the thread and compares. Anything other than "unchanged" parks the row in
+`needs_review` with a reason and sends nothing, because a conversation that
+moved is a question for a human and not a failure of the message.
+`sd_scheduled_messages` lists the caller's own rows with those reasons, and
+counts the `needs_review` ones outside whatever filter was asked for, so a
+filtered listing cannot hide a message waiting on a person.

+## Releasing
+
+A release is a tag push. `.github/workflows/release.yml` runs `./release.sh` on
+the AX41 self-hosted runner, and that script is the same one a laptop runs, so
+there is no second code path to keep honest:
+
+```bash
+git tag v0.28.0 && git push origin v0.28.0
+```
+
+`release.sh` refuses to publish if the packed files have uncommitted changes or
+if the version in `package.json` is already on the registry, then runs the
+syntax check, the tests, `npm pack`, and the prepublish smoke gate against the
+tarball it just built. That gate installs the tarball into a scratch HOME and
+drives the real CLI, so a package that unpacks but cannot run never ships. Any
+other branch or a `workflow_dispatch` run does all of that and stops one command
+short, at `./release.sh --dry-run`.
+
+**The credential is the `NPM_TOKEN` secret**, an npm granular access token
+scoped to `@floomhq/signaldash` with write access:
+
+```bash
+gh secret set NPM_TOKEN -R floomhq/signaldash
+```
+
+Trusted publishing (OIDC) is not an option here, so do not spend time on it:
+npm does not accept self-hosted runners yet, and this repo is on a self-hosted
+runner because GitHub-hosted minutes are unavailable. The workflow asks the
+registry directly on every run (`scripts/oidc-check.mjs`) and prints the answer,
+because npm's own OIDC helper is written never to throw and turns a refusal into
+an ordinary auth error.
+
+To exercise the publish itself without touching npmjs, run it against a
+throwaway registry:
+
+```bash
+scripts/publish-rehearsal.sh
+```
+
+That starts verdaccio in a container, mints an account on it, and runs the real
+`./release.sh` with no `--dry-run`, then prints what the registry received. It
+is the only way to test the publish command and the tarball a client actually
+downloads before a version number is spent.

+### Scheduling one exact message
+
+`sd_schedule_message` holds one exact message for one exact future instant and
+sends it once. It is not a follow-up, a sequence, or a reminder that repeats.
+Schedule a message only when the user asked for that message at that time.
+
+A scheduled send is the only write in SignalDash that reaches a person with
+nobody watching, so it is guarded twice: once when you schedule it and once
+again at the moment it fires.
+
+At schedule time you must have read the exact chat, on LinkedIn at `limit` 10 or
+more. SignalDash records what that read returned. A message you cannot prove was
+written against a real, recent view of the conversation is refused now rather
+than accepted and quietly parked days later, while there is still a human in the
+room to hear about it. This is why `watermark` and `item_limit` are not
+arguments: they are read off the record of your own read, and a proof a caller
+could supply is not a proof.
+
+At fire time SignalDash re-reads the thread and compares it. If the conversation
+moved, the message is not sent. It goes to `needs_review` for a human instead,
+because a message written on Monday against Monday's conversation may be deaf or
+wrong by Thursday, and the person receiving it has no way to know it was written
+before their reply existed. Everything else the live send path checks still
+applies at that moment: chat ownership, contact suppression, the duplicate
+guard, and the daily send budget.
+
+`confirm:true` is required, and it means the human approved this exact channel,
+chat, text, and time. `scheduled_at` must carry `Z` or an explicit numeric UTC
+offset. SignalDash does not infer a timezone: it does not know which one you
+meant, and the cost of guessing wrong is a message arriving in the middle of
+somebody's night.
+
+Check `sd_scheduled_messages` after scheduling, and read `needs_review_count`
+every time even when you filtered it out. A row in `needs_review` stopped at
+send time and is waiting on a person; its `failure_detail` says what stopped it.
+For some of those rows whether the message reached the other person is genuinely
+unknown, and that is the answer to report, not a guess in either direction.
+
+`sd_cancel_scheduled_message` works only while the state is `scheduled`. It
+cannot stop a message that is already being sent, and it cannot unsend one that
+has been sent: that text is in the other person's chat and nothing here takes it
+back. If a sent message was wrong, say so in the chat. A cancel that names an id
+belonging to somebody else is refused in exactly the same words as an id that
+never existed, so a refusal never tells you whether another account's message is
+real.

+Meaning: this session has not yet completed its own QR scan, so it has no

+does not prove the person still controls a channel some earlier session
+linked, so a session that has not scanned cannot read stored data about the
+person or about third parties, and cannot change persistent settings. This
+covers `sd_contact_state`, `li_search_connections`, `sd_settings_set`, and

+A LinkedIn or WhatsApp message send also returns this code when the most recent

+record of what the thread looked like. Read the chat again and send.
+
+`sd_schedule_message` returns it for the same reason and one more: a LinkedIn
+read of fewer than 10 messages is not recorded as proof at all, so reading that
+thread again at the same shallow depth returns this code again. Read at `limit`
+10 or more. The refusal names the depth and the window it enforced; read what it
+says rather than repeating the call. The check runs before the `confirm` gate,
+so you find out you have to read the chat before you ask anyone to approve a
+message you cannot yet schedule.

+### 409 `thread_changed`
+
+Meaning: the exact chat moved after the read that authorized the send. Both
+`li_send_message` and `wa_send_message` re-read the thread immediately before
+sending and refuse unless it is still the thread that was read. A read inside
+the 30-minute window is not enough on its own: a thread that changed 29 minutes
+ago satisfies the window and is still not the conversation the draft was
+written against.

+A `502 thread_preflight_unavailable` on a send means that re-read itself failed,
+so whether the thread changed is unknown and nothing was sent. Retry the send
+later; do not treat it as a delivery. It also covers a re-read the provider
+answered successfully but in a shape SignalDash does not recognise, which is the
+same fact: no answer about whether the conversation moved. In that case a `428
+read_before_send_required` on the next attempt is expected too, because a read
+of an unrecognised shape records no authorization.
+
+Your own send moves the thread too, so two messages in a row are refused unless
+you read the chat between them. This is not a glitch to work around: the second
+message was drafted against a conversation that no longer exists, if only
+because the first message is now in it. Read, confirm the first message landed
+as intended, then send the second. If you meant one message, send one message.
