The live presence allowlist included showcase submission, editing, and detail pages, even though detail pages can contain owner-only drafts. The public intake also had no abuse limits, and a retention cleanup failure could stop scheduled workflow processing.

This follow-up to #1442:

• Limits showcase collection to the public index and filters excluded paths from existing admin responses and activity.
• Adds Cloudflare edge limits of 600 intake requests and 30 new Scarf lookups per IP per minute, per location. These are approximate abuse limits, not a global upstream quota. Intake fails closed if its limiter is missing or unavailable. Lookup throttling preserves presence with its own status.
• Runs retention cleanup independently of workflow processing, with its own error handling.

No database migration is needed. The new lookup status is stored in the existing text column. Deployment must include both rate-limit bindings from wrangler.jsonc. Raw IPs are not written to application rate-limit tables.

The original PR's CI passed. CodeRabbit cancelled the full review after that PR was merged, but its summary raised these concerns, which were checked against the implementation.

Validation: production build and full pnpm test passed, including TypeScript, lint, 632 unit tests, 2,270 chat tests, and 20 desktop tests. Regression tests cover private showcase paths, throttling before body reads/database work, unavailable limiters, exhausted lookup budgets, and cleanup failure isolation.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Live visitor intake is limited to 600 requests per minute per IP, and new company lookups to 30 per minute per IP at each Cloudflare location. Shared networks may reach these limits sooner.
  • Visitors may receive a retry response when intake is limited; unavailable rate-limit services can temporarily prevent intake.
  • Admins can see when a company lookup was rate-limited.
• Bug Fixes
  • Live visitor reporting excludes activity from pages that are not eligible for tracking.
  • Scheduled processing continues when live-presence cleanup encounters an error.
• Documentation
  • Updated guidance explains intake limits, visitor IP handling, and possible outcomes.

Walkthrough

Live visitor intake now uses per-IP rate limits for presence requests and company lookups. The change adds a lookup status, filters excluded pages from admin results, and runs scheduled presence pruning independently of workflow-sweep error handling.

Changes: Live visitor intake and processing

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Configure and enforce intake limits src/server/runtime/host.server.ts, wrangler.jsonc, src/utils/analytics/scarf-lookup.server.ts, src/utils/analytics/live.server.ts, tests/live-intake.test.ts, docs/live-visitors.md	Host runtime and Wrangler configuration provide separate presence and lookup rate limiters. Intake checks the presence limit before reading the request body. Tests cover denied, unavailable, and throwing limiters. The documentation describes the limits and intake outcomes.
Record and display lookup limits src/db/schema.ts, src/utils/analytics/live.server.ts, tests/live-lookup-limit.test.ts, src/components/admin/LiveVisitors.tsx	When the lookup limiter is missing or denies the IP, company lookup is skipped and the session receives the rate_limited status. The schema, admin label, and test cover that status.
Filter live visitor pages src/utils/analytics/live.ts, src/utils/analytics/live.server.ts, tests/live-presence.test.ts, docs/live-visitors.md	The live-page predicate adds /ethos and /tenets and restricts /showcase and /showcases to collection routes. Admin results filter out pages that fail the predicate.
Separate scheduled presence pruning src/server/scheduled.server.ts, tests/live-scheduled.test.ts	The workflow-sweep cron branch runs presence pruning alongside the workflow sweep. Pruning errors are logged separately, and the test checks that sweep operations continue when pruning throws.
