New next/kernel/peer_actors.erl is the federation-side cache for
{PeerActorId, PeerActorState} entries. PeerAS is exactly the shape
envelope:verify_signature/2 reads (proplist with :public_keys), so
the inbox handler can pipe the cache hit straight into
pipeline:validate_inbound/3 from Step 5b.
Pure-functional API:
new/0
lookup/2(PeerId, State) -> {ok, PeerAS} | not_found
store/3(PeerId, PeerAS, State) -> NewState
evict/2(PeerId, State) -> NewState
peers/1(State) -> [PeerId]
lookup_or_fetch/3(PeerId, FetchFn, State)
-> {ok, PeerAS, NewState} cache hit returns unchanged State,
miss stores FetchFn result.
| {error, Reason, State} FetchFn failure preserves cache.
| {error, {bad_fetch_return, X}, State}
FetchFn contract: (PeerId) -> {ok, PeerAS} | {error, Reason}.
Failed fetches do NOT poison the cache so callers can retry on
transient HTTP failures.
gen_server wrapper (registered name peer_actors):
start_link/0,1 start_link/1 accepts initial proplist for fixtures
stop/0
lookup_srv/1
store_srv/2
lookup_or_fetch_srv/2
peers_srv/0
evict_srv/1
handle_call dispatches mirror the pure-fn paths exactly.
The actual HTTP-GET fetch implementation (peer's actor doc -> peer
AS proplist) is Step 5d's responsibility — for 5c, FetchFn is just
the contract callers fill in.
19/19 in next/tests/peer_actors.sh:
- new/0 -> []
- lookup miss -> not_found
- store + lookup round-trip
- peers/1 in insertion order
- evict + evict-unknown no-op
- lookup_or_fetch miss invokes FetchFn, hits cache after
- lookup_or_fetch hit skips FetchFn (verified by tombstone fn)
- fetch error preserves cache state
- bad fetch return shape captured
- gen_server start_link + miss/hit/fetch/evict round-trips
- start_link/1 pre-populates cache from initial state
Conformance 761/761. 139/139 across 9 Step-5-adjacent suites
(inbox_pipeline, inbox_bucket, pipeline_signature, registry_server,
projection_server, nx_kernel_multi, bootstrap_start, http_publish,
smoke_app_pure, plus the new peer_actors).
Rose Ash
Monorepo for the Rose Ash cooperative platform — six Quart microservices sharing a common infrastructure layer, a single PostgreSQL database, and an ActivityPub federation layer.
Services
| Service | URL | Description |
|---|---|---|
| blog | blog.rose-ash.com | Content management, Ghost sync, navigation, editor |
| market | market.rose-ash.com | Product listings, scraping, market pages |
| cart | cart.rose-ash.com | Shopping cart, checkout, orders, SumUp payments |
| events | events.rose-ash.com | Calendar, event entries, container widgets |
| federation | federation.rose-ash.com | OAuth2 authorization server, ActivityPub hub, social features |
| account | account.rose-ash.com | User dashboard, newsletters, tickets, bookings |
All services are Python 3.11 / Quart apps served by Hypercorn, deployed as a Docker Swarm stack.

Key architecture patterns
Shared models — All ORM models live in shared/models/. Each app's models/ directory contains thin re-export stubs. factory.py imports all six apps' models at startup so SQLAlchemy relationship references resolve across domains.
Service contracts — Apps communicate through typed protocols (shared/contracts/protocols.py) and frozen dataclass DTOs (shared/contracts/dtos.py), wired via a singleton registry (shared/services/registry.py). No direct HTTP calls between apps for domain logic.
Fragment composition — Apps expose HTML fragments at /internal/fragments/<type> for cross-app UI composition. The blog fetches cart, account, navigation, and event fragments to compose its pages. Fragments are cached in Redis with short TTLs.
OAuth SSO — Federation is the OAuth2 authorization server. All other apps are OAuth clients with per-app first-party session cookies (Safari ITP compatible). Login/callback/logout routes are auto-registered via shared/infrastructure/oauth.py.
ActivityPub — Each app has its own AP actor (virtual projection of the same keypair). The federation app is the social hub (timeline, compose, follow, notifications). Activities are emitted to ap_activities table and processed by EventProcessor.
Development
Quick deploy (skip CI)
# Rebuild + restart one app
./deploy.sh blog
# Rebuild + restart multiple apps
./deploy.sh blog market
# Rebuild all
./deploy.sh --all
# Auto-detect changes from git
./deploy.sh
Full stack deploy
source .env
docker stack deploy -c docker-compose.yml coop
Build a single app image
docker build -f blog/Dockerfile -t registry.rose-ash.com:5000/blog:latest .
Run migrations
Migrations run automatically on the blog service startup when RUN_MIGRATIONS=true is set (only blog runs migrations; all other apps skip them).
# Manual migration
docker exec -it $(docker ps -qf name=coop_blog) bash -c "cd shared && alembic upgrade head"
CI/CD
A single Gitea Actions workflow (.gitea/workflows/ci.yml) handles all six apps:
- Detects which files changed since the last deploy
- If
shared/ordocker-compose.ymlchanged, rebuilds all apps - Otherwise rebuilds only apps with changes (or missing images)
- Pushes images to the private registry
- Runs
docker stack deployto update the swarm
Required secrets
