fix(gl): derive View: URL from node instead of hardcoding gitlawb.com (#370) - #549
Continues #377: the same commits on an upstream branch so the Code Quality check can run. gl repo create and gl mirror printed a View: link unconditionally pointing at gitlawb.com, which 404s for repos on self-hosted nodes; nodes can now advertise an optional web_url and the CLI only prints a working link.
After gl repo create on a self-hosted node, the View: URL resolves through gitlawb.com, which can only see repos on the main network. Self-hosted repos silently 404. The fix lets nodes advertise an optional web_url so the CLI only prints a working link.
Kind of change
Bug fix
What changed
gitlawb-node/config.rs: added web_url: Option<String> (GITLAWB_WEB_URL). When set, the node advertises it in GET /. validate() validates it as an absolute browser URL (rejects empty, scheme-less, query/fragment, and userinfo forms) and normalizes it to canonical form, so it now takes &mut self.
gitlawb-node/server.rs, main.rs: node_info conditionally includes web_url; the degraded-serve path propagates it too.
gl/repo.rs: after repo creation, fetches GET / and only prints View: when the node supplies web_url.
gl/mirror.rs: same pattern, View: only when web_url is advertised.
Cargo.lock: h2 0.4.19 for RUSTSEC-2026-0258 (contributor commit preserved through the merge).
Merge resolution notes (upstream branch only): main hardcoded View: to https://twigpine.com in repo.rs/mirror.rs as its own fix for the same 404; the resolution keeps this branch's derivation instead, which is strictly better since it is correct on self-hosted nodes and silent when a node has no web front-end. In config.rs, main split the DB pool check into lock-pool and main-pool floors while this branch added the web_url validation and the &mut self signature it needs for normalization; the resolution keeps main's checks whole, applies the &mut self signature, and appends the web_url block, with mut added to the test bindings that now call a &mut method. The branch's old single-pool floor test was superseded by main's lock-pool coverage of the same floor. In Cargo.lock, the file was regenerated and the contributor's h2 0.4.19 bump kept.
How a reviewer can verify
cargo test -p gitlawb-node --bin gitlawb-node --locked
cargo test -p gl --bin gl --locked
cargo test -p gl --locked --test cmd_create_view_url
Merged-tree results on this head: the full node suite is green including all three web_url validation tests and the pool-floor tests, the full gl suite is green, and the cmd_create_view_url integration test passes (it fails on the merge-base, where the View: line prints https://gitlawb.com regardless of what the node advertises).
Before you request review
Scope is one logical change; no unrelated churn
cargo test --workspace passes locally
New behavior is covered by tests (required for fixes)
cargo fmt --all and cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings are clean
Commit titles use Conventional Commits (feat(...), fix(...), docs(...))
Docs / .env.example updated if behavior or config changed (or N/A)
Checked existing PRs so this isn't a duplicate
Protocol & signing impact
Backward-compatible with existing nodes and previously signed history
Notes for reviewers
web_url is additive on GET /: old clients ignore the field, old servers simply make the CLI omit the View: line rather than print a broken one. The &mut self signature on Config::validate is required for the canonicalization write; the boot call site already binds config mutably.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Nodes can be configured with a browser-facing web address and advertise it when available, including in degraded status responses.
After repository creation, the CLI prints a View link using the node’s advertised address. If no usable address is available, it omits the link.
Improvements
Configured web addresses are validated and normalized before use. Invalid or unavailable advertised addresses do not produce a View link.
…#370)
gl repo create and gl mirror print a View: link that was unconditionally
pointed at gitlawb.com, which 404s for repos on self-hosted nodes.
Make the node advertise an optional web_url on GET / (sourced from the
new GITLAWB_WEB_URL env var). The CLI fetches GET / after repo creation
and only prints View: when the node supplies web_url. Nodes without the
config skip the line entirely, which is better than printing a broken link.
Address review feedback:
- Check GET / response status before parsing; only omit View: on
success responses that lack web_url
- Trim trailing '/' from web_url to avoid double-slash in the URL
- Skip the line when web_url is empty after trimming
- Extract fetch_node_web_url() helper for testability; add 6 unit tests
covering: web_url present, trailing-slash trim, absent, empty string,
whitespace-only, and server error
- Reject empty/whitespace-only GITLAWB_WEB_URL at boot in Config::validate()
- Trim whitespace from web_url in the CLI helper (not just trailing slashes)
- Document GITLAWB_WEB_URL in .env.example alongside GITLAWB_PUBLIC_URL
- Mirror uses shared fetch_node_web_url() helper
Node side: GITLAWB_WEB_URL must now parse as an absolute http(s) URL —
scheme-less hosts and other garbage fail at boot instead of serving a
View link no browser can follow.
CLI side: a non-success GET / status or a malformed advertised web_url
now warns on stderr (with the status/value) instead of silently dropping
the View link; successful responses lacking the field still omit it
quietly, as self-hosted nodes without a web front-end are expected to.
Both web_url validators now reject URLs carrying a query string or
fragment: the CLI builds View links by string-appending /{owner}/{repo},
so "?a=1" would swallow the repo path into the query. The CLI also no
longer swallows transport-level failures on GET / — a refused or failed
connection warns on stderr like the other degraded-link paths.
Treat GET / like every other caller-chosen node reply: bound the body
read at 8 KiB and parse from the cap (peer.rs precedent). A web_url
containing control or bidi characters — which passes URL parsing but
would reach the terminal verbatim through the View: line — is now
rejected as malformed, with a defanged preview in the warning.
…tegration test
The a6113fd merge onto #370 left the workspace red: a missing closing
`}` in `web_url_rejects_non_absolute_or_non_browser_urls` so the next
test nested inside it (config.rs), a duplicate `url = "2"` workspace
dep (Cargo.toml, one from the redirect-rule PR, one from #370), and
`fetch_node_web_url` derefing `CappedBody` as `&str` instead of
`.text` (repo.rs, regression in the same merge). All three are
straightforward to repair; the brace was the only one blocking CI.
The new `cmd_create_view_url_tracks_node_advertisement` integration
test drives the real `gl repo create` binary against a mockito node
that answers both `POST /api/v1/repos` and `GET /`, and asserts the
printed `View:` line tracks the advertised web_url — present with
the advertised origin when set, absent when the node omits it. The
helper-level `fetch_node_web_url_*` tests would still pass if
`cmd_create` reverted to a hardcoded URL; this one would not, so it
is the load-bearing check for #370.
Two P2s from the #370 review addressed at the configuration boundary.
`Config::validate()` now rewrites `self.web_url` to the canonical
`url::Url::to_string()` after `validate_web_url` succeeds, so the
regular and degraded `GET /` handlers advertise the same string that
was actually validated instead of the operator-typed one. The CLI
trims a second time in `fetch_node_web_url`, which hid the divergence
on the View: line, but any other consumer parsing `web_url` directly
would see a non-canonical base. `validate` is now `&mut self` to
carry the write; the one non-test caller already binds `mut` and the
two test bindings are updated to match.
Both `validate_web_url` (node) and `fetch_node_web_url` (CLI) now
reject URLs with a non-empty username or a password: the configured
value is published on public `GET /` and reprinted on the View: line,
so an accidentally configured `https://user:secret@example.com`
would land in public metadata, terminal scrollback, and CI logs.
New regression tests cover user-only and user+password forms on both
sides, plus a normalization test that the stored value matches the
canonical form (with and without operator padding).
The node now accepts and advertises an optional browser-facing web URL. The gl CLI retrieves and validates that URL, then prints a repository View link only when the node provides a usable value.
Changes: Node web URL and repository View links
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Configure and validate the web URL .env.example, Cargo.toml, crates/gitlawb-node/Cargo.toml, crates/gitlawb-node/src/config.rs
Configuration adds optional GITLAWB_WEB_URL. Validation accepts absolute HTTP(S) URLs without queries, fragments, or credentials, then stores the canonical form. Tests cover validation and normalization.
Advertise the web URL crates/gitlawb-node/src/main.rs, crates/gitlawb-node/src/server.rs
Normal and degraded node-info responses include web_url when configured and omit it otherwise.
Use the advertised URL in gl crates/gl/Cargo.toml, crates/gl/src/repo.rs, crates/gl/src/mirror.rs, crates/gl/tests/cmd_create_view_url.rs
The CLI fetches and validates the node’s advertised URL, and prints a View link only when a usable URL is available. Tests cover URL handling and command output.

Explanation
The title names the main change: the View: URL printed by gl is now derived from the node instead of the hardcoded gitlawb.com. It follows Conventional Commits and is specific enough for history scanning. The title references 'gitlawb.com' while the diff removes the hardcoded Twigpine link in repo.rs and mirror.rs, which is a minor naming mismatch but does not make the title misleading.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template sections: Summary, Motivation & context with 'Closes #370', Kind of change (Bug fix checked), What changed, How a reviewer can verify with commands, the pre-review checklist, Protocol & signing impact, and Notes for reviewers. The summary and motivation explain the 404 problem and the optional web_url fix. The description does not name the touched crates in the template's style, but its 'What changed' section lists the affected files. Some template placeholders are not filled, such as the template's crate-note comment, but the required information is present. Its Summary also references an upstream continuation (#377) and merge-resolution notes that are context rather than a problem for the check.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#370] Issue #370 asks that the View: URL come from the node that hosts the repo, or be omitted when that node has no known web view. The issue names one option: the node advertises a web host property on GET /, and the CLI prints View: only when the node supplies one. The PR implements that option. config.rs adds web_url (GITLAWB_WEB_URL) and validates it as an absolute HTTP(S) URL. server.rs and main.rs include web_url in GET / when configured. repo.rs (cmd_create) and mirror.rs fetch GET / and print View: only when a valid web_url is returned. The hardcoded gitlawb.com and twigpine.com links are removed. Tests per the PR summary include the tests in repo.rs and config.rs and the end-to-end cmd_create_view_url test, which covers both the advertised and the absent case. The peering and bootstrap-peers concern in #370 is marked as a separate decision. The PR objectives do not assign it to this PR, so it is not a requirement here. Evidence limit: no repository inspection was available. Test pass results come from the PR summary and the author's report, and were not re-run.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The AI-generated summary of crates/gitlawb-node/src/config.rs states that Config defines a 100-year maximum for the git-service and IPFS request and resolve timeout settings. This change does not connect to GITLAWB_WEB_URL, to View: output, or to issue #370. The PR description does not mention it. The PR description also says the scope is one logical change with no unrelated churn. The PR also merges main-side changes: the lock-pool and main-pool DB floor checks, and the Cargo.lock h2 0.4.19 bump for RUSTSEC-2026-0258. The h2 bump is a separate dependency security update. Cargo.lock is excluded from review by the !**/*.lock rule, so its content could not be inspected. The percent-encoding dependency and the url dependency are related to web_url validation and are in scope.
Resolution
Remove the git-service and IPFS timeout maximum changes from this PR, or link them to a requirement and describe them in the PR description. Remove the h2 security bump and the main-side DB pool floor changes from this PR's diff, or move them to a separate PR. If these changes come from main, rebase or merge onto the current main so that the merge base includes them. Then confirm that the diff against the merge base contains only the web_url, View:, and percent-encoding/url changes.

validate_web_url parses raw.trim(). The caller then parses the same string again to build the canonical form. The second map_err branch is unreachable after a successful validation. Return the parsed Url from the validator and serialize it directly. This removes the duplicate parse and keeps validation and canonicalization in one place.

I found issues that need to be addressed before this is ready.
Merge readiness
CI still running at review capture:test (stable), test (beta), build --release, Docker build smoke test, CodeQL Rust/Swift, and CodeRabbit were in progress when this review was drafted. fmt+clippy, MSRV, cargo audit, and Windows non-blocking tests had already passed.
Branch protection: GitHub reports merge state BLOCKED (expected review gates).
Ops after merge: Default gl repo create against nodes without GITLAWB_WEB_URL will omit View: (intentional per #370). Operators who want the line on the public network must set GITLAWB_WEB_URL in deployment config; .env.example documents it but no in-diff fly/compose template was updated—plan a rollout, not a code blocker.
Cargo.lock: Besides the intentional h2 0.4.19 bump, the diff includes unrelated transitive downgrades (syn, windows-sys). Confirm those came from lockfile regen only; no behavioral finding filed.
Findings
🟡 P2 — Classify capped GET / bodies before treating parse failure as “no web front-end”
📍 Where:crates/gl/src/repo.rs — fetch_node_web_url (uses read_body_capped then serde_json::from_str on .text only).
💥 What fails: An oversize, truncated, or partially read GET / body can return None for the View: line with no stderr warning—the same observable outcome as a self-hosted node that legitimately omits web_url.
🔎 Root cause: The new classifier ignores CappedBody::truncated and CappedBody::read_failed, so it violates the existing capped-read contract for any caller that branches on JSON parse success vs intentional omission.
📜 Stated contract:
A caller that CLASSIFIES on the body needs it: a cut body fails JSON parse, and a parse failure is indistinguishable from a node that sent no code at all, so without this flag an oversized body silently picks a different arm.
🏷️ Attribution: PR-introduced (fetch_node_web_url is new on this branch).
📌 In this PR:
fetch_node_web_url — reads cap but does not consult flags before classifying
🔒 Unchanged on main: Other read_body_capped call sites outside this PR's new path.
🔧 Required correction: After read_body_capped, if truncated or read_failed, emit the same class of stderr warning used for other misbehaving-node paths and return None; only treat missing/web_url as silent when the body was read cleanly and parsed. Add a mockito regression that oversize or aborted GET / bodies warn (assert stderr or a test hook), not only None.
🛠️ Author fix: Close the root cause on fetch_node_web_url and add the regression in one pass; do not change the 8 KiB cap or unrelated HTTP helpers.
🚫 Out of scope: Rebuilding read_json or peer/sync readers.
🟡 P2 — Close the INV-6 bidi gap on web_url at boot and on ingest
💥 What fails: A web_url carrying Unicode bidi reordering characters can pass node boot validation (canonicalized to a percent-encoded path), be advertised on public GET /, and still be accepted for the View: line when the wire form contains no literal Cf code points—so terminal/link output can carry a URL that decodes to a bidi-spoofed path. Literal-byte tests in test_fetch_node_web_url_rejects_control_bytes do not cover this shape.
🔎 Root cause: Bidi rejection on the new surfaces only inspects the raw string for literal control/bidi code points. Node boot does not apply the workspace INV-6 rule before normalization; CLI ingest does not inspect parsed/decoded URL components. The gap is shared across both PR-changed validators.
📜 Stated contract:
Untrusted peer/remote bytes that reach an operator's terminal … must be stripped of BOTH Cc control bytes … AND Cf bidi/format controls before display (INV-6).
🏷️ Attribution: PR-introduced (web_url validators and View: derivation are new).
📌 In this PR:
validate_web_url (node boot)
Config::validate normalization write
fetch_node_web_url acceptance path
Unit tests — literal control/bidi only; no percent-encoded / post-canonicalization bidi case
🔒 Unchanged on main: Pre-existing terminal sanitizers elsewhere.
🔧 Required correction: Reject bidi (and the same INV-6 class) in parsed URL host/path on both sides—after trim/parse, including percent-decoded segments—using gitlawb_core::sanitize::is_bidi_format (or a shared helper). Add paired node + CLI regressions for https://example.com/\u{202e}… and for GET / bodies that advertise the canonical percent-encoded form.
🛠️ Author fix: Close boot validation and CLI ingest together with both regressions; do not patch only the literal pre-parse scan in repo.rs.
🚫 Out of scope: Sanitizing unrelated API error strings or rewriting explorer URLs outside web_url.
…i in web_url
An oversized or half-read GET / body previously fell through JSON parse
failure into the same silent-None arm as a node with no web front-end.
The classify step now consults the capped body's truncated and
read_failed flags and warns before omitting the View link.
web_url validation on both sides also scanned only literal bytes for
control and bidi characters, so a percent-encoded reordering character
(%E2%80%AE) passed boot validation and CLI ingest even though a browser
decodes it into a bidi spoof. Both validators now check the decoded host
and path (INV-6). Also fixes the control-byte test, which served invalid
JSON and passed without reaching the check it pinned.
Both findings addressed in 779689e: the web_url classify step now consults the capped body's truncated/read_failed flags and warns before omitting View (extracted as web_url_from_info_body so the classification contract is pinned by a test hook), and both validators now reject control/bidi bytes in the decoded host and path, closing the percent-encoded bidi gap on boot and ingest. The control-byte test was also fixed: it previously served invalid JSON and passed without reaching the check. The repo and config tests pass locally, including the new truncated-read and percent-encoded bidi regressions.

I rechecked head 779689ed738b24a04682a175704fff5df47a6403 against my earlier CHANGES_REQUESTED on 083b1cc. The two P2 items I called out—capped GET / classification and INV-6 percent-encoded bidi on web_url—are addressed with load-bearing regressions. I do not see additional actionable code defects on the current diff.
Merge readiness
My prior review: I previously blocked merge on those two P2s; on this head they look resolved to me. I’m satisfied to clear that block from a code perspective once I post this.
Branch protection: GitHub may still show BLOCKED until this review lands and any other required approvals are in place. Required PR checks on this head are green on my capture (stable/beta tests, fmt+clippy, MSRV, cargo audit, release/Docker smoke, CodeQL, CodeRabbit).
Target branch: Head is up to date with live main (42cc893); I didn’t see rebase drift on this capture.
Duplicate work:#377 (closed fork) continues here as the upstream PR; scope still matches #370.
CodeRabbit pre-merge warnings: I’m treating docstring coverage and the “out of scope” timeout/lockfile noise as non-blocking. The three-dot diff doesn’t newly introduce the 100-year timeout hunks (they’re unchanged main context in config.rs); Cargo.lock includes the intentional h2 0.4.19 audit fix bundled from the branch. Neither is a merge-blocking code defect for me.
Ops after merge: Nodes that want a View: line need GITLAWB_WEB_URL (documented in .env.example). Self-hosted nodes without a web front-end will correctly omit View: instead of printing a broken hardcoded URL—worth planning in deployment config.

gl repo createandgl mirrorprinted aView:link unconditionally pointing atgitlawb.com, which 404s for repos on self-hosted nodes; nodes can now advertise an optionalweb_urland the CLI only prints a working link.Motivation & context
Closes #370
After
gl repo createon a self-hosted node, theView:URL resolves throughgitlawb.com, which can only see repos on the main network. Self-hosted repos silently 404. The fix lets nodes advertise an optionalweb_urlso the CLI only prints a working link.Kind of change
What changed
gitlawb-node/config.rs: addedweb_url: Option<String>(GITLAWB_WEB_URL). When set, the node advertises it inGET /.validate()validates it as an absolute browser URL (rejects empty, scheme-less, query/fragment, and userinfo forms) and normalizes it to canonical form, so it now takes&mut self.gitlawb-node/server.rs,main.rs:node_infoconditionally includesweb_url; the degraded-serve path propagates it too.gl/repo.rs: after repo creation, fetchesGET /and only printsView:when the node suppliesweb_url.gl/mirror.rs: same pattern,View:only whenweb_urlis advertised.Cargo.lock: h2 0.4.19 for RUSTSEC-2026-0258 (contributor commit preserved through the merge).Merge resolution notes (upstream branch only): main hardcoded
View:tohttps://twigpine.cominrepo.rs/mirror.rsas its own fix for the same 404; the resolution keeps this branch's derivation instead, which is strictly better since it is correct on self-hosted nodes and silent when a node has no web front-end. Inconfig.rs, main split the DB pool check into lock-pool and main-pool floors while this branch added theweb_urlvalidation and the&mut selfsignature it needs for normalization; the resolution keeps main's checks whole, applies the&mut selfsignature, and appends theweb_urlblock, withmutadded to the test bindings that now call a&mutmethod. The branch's old single-pool floor test was superseded by main's lock-pool coverage of the same floor. InCargo.lock, the file was regenerated and the contributor's h2 0.4.19 bump kept.How a reviewer can verify
Merged-tree results on this head: the full node suite is green including all three
web_urlvalidation tests and the pool-floor tests, the full gl suite is green, and thecmd_create_view_urlintegration test passes (it fails on the merge-base, where theView:line printshttps://gitlawb.comregardless of what the node advertises).Before you request review

Notes for reviewers
web_urlis additive onGET /: old clients ignore the field, old servers simply make the CLI omit theView:line rather than print a broken one. The&mut selfsignature onConfig::validateis required for the canonicalization write; the boot call site already bindsconfigmutably.Summary by CodeRabbit
