`write_nftables_ruleset` emitted a forward chain with `policy drop` and no
rules at all. That chain runs at the same netfilter hook as Docker's own
DOCKER-USER/DOCKER-FORWARD chains, so it vetoed them: every bridged
container lost outbound networking while the host itself stayed online, so
nothing looked broken.
It cost the Signal bot three silent hours today. signal-cli lost its
connection to Signal at 15:32:50 and looped on reconnect for 2.5h, while
the bot kept answering /healthz with 200 -- `/v1/groups` still served from
local state, so every surface said healthy.
`flush ruleset` also deletes Docker's own tables, and dockerd only rebuilds
them on its next network event, so restore_docker_rules() now restarts
docker right after a successful apply.
Verified in vmbox (Arch guest, docker installed, alpine probe):
BASELINE=reachable -> OLD=blocked -> NEW=reachable, sshd active throughout.

Two failure modes compose cannot see, both of which report a healthy
container while it serves 404s:
1. The Caddyfile is a bind mount, so its contents are not in the config
hash compose compares. Editing it changes nothing observable, compose
says Running, and the new directives never load.
2. A bind mount resolves once, at start. Replacing dist/ rather than
emptying it leaves the container on the old unlinked inode: /srv reads
empty and every request 404s.
Hit both at once on a real deploy today -- the container was Up 6 hours,
Caddy logs clean, /srv empty, curl 404. Reproduced by rm -rf dist (inode
84695030 -> 84695031) and fixed by the patched function in one run.
wait_for_website also stops using curl -sf, which collapses every non-2xx
into the same "did not become reachable". It now reports the status it saw,
because unreachable and answering-404 are different bugs and the message
named only the first.

The personal-website repo now prerenders each post to
dist/blog/<slug>/index.html. Caddy try_files does not resolve a directory
to its index on its own, so with the single-term directive every post URL
fell through to the SPA shell: right content once React booted, wrong
<title>, and no link preview. Verified against caddy:2.8 in Docker both
ways before and after.

Two levels of pure taxonomy carrying no information, and a 2-directory
cap leaves no room for them. Categories now sit directly under
linux_configuration/: features, fixes, utils, misc, fresh-install,
installers, diagnostics, gaming, boot_recovery, periodic_background, lib,
meta, tests. A script's own lib/ and tests/ are exempt from the cap, so
those stay put.
Depth violations 248 -> 139; roughly 40 of the remainder are inside
digital_wellbeing and hosts, deferred until the guard-lib repoint.
The moves are the easy half. What breaks is every path that counted
levels, and three classes of it had to be found by resolving paths rather
than reading diffs:
- 52 relative `source` lines for lib/common.sh and lib/android.sh. The
correct prefix differs per file: 40 were ../../ and 12 were ../../../,
so a blanket replace would have fixed one set and broken the other.
- REPO_ROOT in 7 fixes/lib/tests harnesses and setup_syncyomi_guard.sh,
each walking up four levels from a directory now two levels shallower.
This caused a real regression -- the fixes suite went red with
"log_warn: command not found" -- caught by running it and comparing
against the pre-move baseline worktree.
- conftest.py's sys.path entries, which took the pytest gate down with
14 collection errors, and the `# shellcheck source=` directives, which
took shellcheck down with SC1091.
16 symlinks in $HOME broke, including the entire i3blocks bar. All
repointed, and cpu_monitor/memory/disk/time/volume were run to confirm
they emit real output rather than merely resolving.
Verified: 1798 tests pass at 100% coverage, 8 of 9 lib/tests suites pass
(the ninth needs the coverage jail, identically at baseline), pre-commit
is clean, and the two untracked secret configs are still ignored after
their gitignore paths changed.
