Summary

  • Add host /media conversion for PNG/JPG/JPEG/BMP/GIF/TIFF → WebP (NomadNet 1.4.3 Node.py parity) with native WebP passthrough.
  • Introduce a clearable conversion cache: in-memory LRU by default, optional embedder-owned disk root, clear_media_cache / clear_media_cache_key (never under pages//files/).
  • Export client Link request helpers (path hashes, bodies, timeout stages, reply_file_name) and document the sidecar embedder contract.

Test plan

  • cargo test -p nomad-core (104 tests)
  • Confirm mesh-client sidecar continues to build against this branch when bumped
  • Spot-check: serve a .png under pages/ via /media and receive WebP with *.webp basename metadata
  • Spot-check: clear_media_cache() empties memory (and disk root when configured)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for serving PNG, JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, and WebP images through /media.
    • Non-WebP images are automatically converted to WebP and resized when needed.
    • Added bounded media caching with optional disk storage and cache-clearing controls.
    • Added client helpers for page, file, and media requests, including improved timeout handling and file-name metadata.
  • Documentation
    • Updated compatibility information and documented media conversion, caching, and client request behavior for NomadNet 1.4.3.

Close host parity for non-WebP /media conversion with an in-memory (or
embedder-owned disk) conversion cache that clear_* can wipe, and export
Link request helpers so embedders stay off wire details.

The client module adds egress-specific timeout calculations, normalized page/file/media request builders, reply filename parsing, and tests. Documentation records the helpers and updated interoperability scope.

Compatibility and roadmap documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Compatibility and roadmap documentation
README.md, ROADMAP.md
The documentation updates the compatibility target to NomadNet 1.4.3 and defines media cache ownership, browser cache scope, cache UI wiring, completed roadmap work, and related non-goals.

Validate keys at the MediaCache filesystem boundary.

MediaCache::get, insert, and clear_key pass raw keys to disk_root.join(key). With disk caching enabled, absolute or parent paths can access files outside disk_root. Validate keys in all three methods. Require one normal relative component and reject absolute paths, separators, . and ... Do not require {sha}.q{q}.d{d}.webp; arbitrary leaf keys are supported.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Honor quality or remove it from the conversion contract.

WebPEncoder::new_lossless does not use quality. Changing quality cannot change the encoder invocation, but it creates a different cache_key_for_source key. This creates duplicate cache entries and makes the public conversion-quality setting ineffective. Use a quality-capable lossy encoder, or remove quality from the configuration and cache key.

Limit decoded image resources before conversion.

convert_bytes_to_webp decodes the full raster before it downscales. The 32 MiB source limit only limits compressed bytes. A highly compressed large PNG can allocate hundreds of MiB during decode before max_dimension reduces it.

Set a decoder pixel or allocation limit before decode, and reject images above that limit. Add a test with a compressed oversized raster.
