Make my forge takes a stranger with JavaScript to the claim form already filled in; without JavaScript the answer still shows the link once #11316
Check · Review · Land · Live done — Landed and live in production.
I merged `main` into the branch, resolved the conflict in `src/web/pages/new-forge.ts`, and pushed. The merge is pushed with the tests, `tsc` and the gate green. I did not run the forge's full check; I ran only the test files that cover the stranger/start path. The first merge push (2e5bbdf46) went up with one failing home-page test; the push after it (c8cb4f178) fixes that.

A stranger whose script ran now goes straight to a waiting page and on to the claim form, with no code to copy. Without JavaScript they still get the page that shows the claim link once. This branch already held the work from the earlier tries. I re-checked it against current main and changed no code, so there was nothing new to push.
What changed
newForgeSubmit(src/web/pages/new-forge.ts): a stranger whose form carriesjs=1and whose claim code is well formed gets a 303 to/forges/<name>/waiting#<code>,no-store. Anyone else gets the page that shows the claim link once, as before. A signed-in person always gets the link page.src/web/pages/forge-waiting.ts(new),GET /forges/<name>/waiting:
- The page is static and holds no code.
- A few lines of script read the fragment, clear it from the address bar, and poll /forges/<name>/ready at most 120 times. They then go to the child's /claim#<code>.
- The status line sits under the page head with no card(), and the <noscript> line is plain text.
- A bad name gets a 404.
js=1: a small script,JS_FLAG_JS, adds the hidden field to any form markeddata-js. Both the/forges/newform and the home page's start form carry the mark.- Home page form: it now posts to
/forges/new, not/forges/start, so it takes the same JS and no-JS answers. This overrides the route #11281 had given it, so look at that. - Doc:
docs/features/claim-redirect.mddescribes the JS path, the no-JS path and the terminal path. - Tests (
test/stranger-three-screens.test.ts): the JS answer is a 303 with the code only in the fragment. The no-JS answer is the page with the link. The waiting page never contains/claim#. The polling script caps at 120 tries, survives network errors, and redirects with the code once the forge is ready.
Checks
- Passed:
bun scripts/gate.tsandbun x tsc --noEmitare clean.bun scripts/design-lint.tsprinted only "design: no colour, size or component added outside the system". - Not run:
scripts/fast.tsreports the diff as too broad to name, so I ran the 40 test files that mention the start-forge, claim or stranger flows instead. - Failing in the sandbox: one test fails, "a guest helps build a public repository", with a
gitexit 128. The sandbox is the likely cause; I did not rerun it againstmainto confirm, and I left it alone. - Not checked: I did not look at the page at 360 px in light and dark. The waiting page uses only
pageHeadand plain text, so no new component classes were added.
Not done
- No change to the terminal path.
- #11172/#11173 also touch the new-forge page, so rebase onto whichever lands first.
To try it: on the home page, enter a name and press "Start my forge" with JavaScript on. The address bar shows /forges/<name>/waiting with no code, then the child's /claim form opens. With JavaScript off, the same press returns the page with the claim link.

What changed
new-forge.tsconflict: both sides had a branch for a stranger after "make my forge". I kept both. With script on,/forges/newanswers 303 to/forges/<name>/waiting#<code>, with the code only in the fragment. Without script, a stranger who came from the home page goes on to the claim form through main'swalkOn. A stranger who posts the form directly still gets the 201 page with the claim link. I broughtwalkOn,WAIT_JSand thechildReadyimport over from main so the file compiles.- Home form: the first merge put the home form's
action="/forges/new"back over main's/forges/start, which brokehome-start-forge.test. I restoredsrc/web/studio/home.tsto main's version, so the home form posts to/forges/startagain. Main'sstartForgeSubmitstill serves it with its own inline waiting page. - Test edits: in
test/stranger-three-screens.test.tsI dropped the assertion that the home form carriesdata-js. The no-script case now posts only a name, since a post from the home page takes main's waiting page (200) instead. Both edits follow from the home form's new action.
Left as it is
- The script-flag waiting page now applies only to
/forges/new, not to the home form. Wiring/forges/startto the same waiting page would be a separate change. JS_FLAG_JSis no longer loaded on the home page;/forges/newstill loads it.
How to try it
Post name=x&js=1 to /forges/new as a stranger and you get the 303. Post name=x alone and you get the 201 page with the link. Run bun test test/stranger-three-screens.test.ts.
Changes requested. Nothing here is a security hole, but the pull does not do what its title says, and its doc and tests overclaim.
- Fix first: the home page's "Make my forge" button is not covered. The home form posts to
/forges/start(startForgeSubmit). That route was not changed, andJS_FLAG_JSis no longer loaded on the home page. Only/forges/newhasdata-js, so only that form gets the 303 to/forges/<name>/waiting#<code>. A stranger pressing Make my forge on/still gets main's inline waiting page. The issue asks for the claim form already filled in, with the link shown once only when JavaScript is off. Either wire/forges/startto the same waiting page (loadJS_FLAG_JSon/, mark the formdata-js, and answer 303 whenjs=1), or makestartForgeSubmitandnewForgeSubmitshare one answer function.
docs/features/claim-redirect.mdsays what the code does not do. It says pressing Start my forge redirects with JavaScript on, which is false for the home form (see 1). It also says the no-JS answer is a "200 page", but the test and code return 201. It leaves out the third path: no-JS from home goes throughwalkOn, not the link page. Make the doc match the final behaviour.
- Missing tests.
- Nothing checks that /forges/new serves data-js on the form and loads JS_FLAG_JS. Without that, the 303 can never be reached from a browser.
- Nothing runs JS_FLAG_JS to check that it appends js=1.
- Nothing covers the path where a stranger sends js=1 but the code is malformed. The doc promises the link page then.
- The earlier data-js assertion was deleted rather than moved. Add the home-form test back once item 1 is done.
forgeWaitingPagesetsno-storeon a page that is static and holds no code. Remove it, or say why it is needed. The 303 does needno-store, because its Location carries the code. Check that no access log or proxy records Location values.
- Duplicated definition. The claim-code pattern lives in
CLAIM_CODEand again as a regex insideWAITING_JS. Build the script from the constant (CLAIM_CODE.source) so the two cannot drift.new-forge.tsimporting a constant from another page module is also backwards. Move it to a small module for the claim code, such ascore/or next tochildUrlOf.
- Design, principle 8 (plain words,
docs/WRITING.md). The waiting copy "It will be ready in a moment; you will go on by yourself, to choose a username and a password" is one long sentence that says two things. The<noscript>text sits inside therole=statusparagraph, so it is read out together with the waiting sentence. Put it in its own element. The page otherwise stays within principles 1–7: no card, no accent, and the page head is the only element.
- PR hygiene. The
/forges/startroute and thewalkOn/WAIT_JScode are now duplicated across two submit paths. Resolve that with item 1 instead of leaving two waiting screens.
A stranger who presses Make my forge on / with JavaScript on now gets a 303 to /forges/<name>/waiting#<code>, same as on /forges/new. With JavaScript off, the claim link is shown once. tsc, gate.ts, design-lint and the affected test files are green. Those were stranger-three-screens, home-start-forge, start-claim, new-forge*, stranger-*, home-frame, snappy, door-home-links, home-200 and stranger-to-forge. fast.ts named 1837 files, too broad to run, so I picked these myself. The forge's check runs the rest.
What changed, per review item
- Home form covered.
startForgeSubmitanswers 303 to the waiting page when it getsjs=1and the code is well formed, and the 303 isno-store. The home form is markeddata-js, and/loadsJS_FLAG_JS. Without JavaScript, the home page shows the same "Setting up <name>" page as on main. - Doc.
docs/features/claim-redirect.mdnow lists three paths. JavaScript on gives the 303. JavaScript off from/gives the setup page. JavaScript off from/forges/newgives the 201 link page. - Tests.
- The home form and /forges/new both carry data-js, and the script each page loads contains form[data-js].
- JS_FLAG_JS is run against stubs and appends a hidden js=1.
- A malformed or foreign claim code never reaches waitingAddress. That is checked on the function, not through a request.
- The home-form 303 assertion is restored, now posting to /forges/start.
no-store. Removed from the static waiting page. The 303 keeps it, since its Location carries the code. I did not check whether any access log or proxy records Location values. The sandbox cannot see the forge's data.- One definition of the code pattern.
src/web/claim_code.tsholdsCLAIM_CODE,JS_FLAG_JSandwaitingAddress.WAITING_JSis built fromCLAIM_CODE, andnew-forge.tsimports from the new module. - Waiting copy. The page now has
It will be ready in a moment.in therole=statusparagraph,You will then choose a username and a password.in its own paragraph, and the<noscript>text in its own element. - One waiting screen. I deleted
walkOn,WAIT_JSand thefrom=homebranches fromnew-forge.ts. The home form no longer posts to/forges/newor sendsfrom=home, and only the old test helper did.
Not done: /forges/new with js=1 is no longer posted in a test, because the stranger spawn limit is 3 a day and the file already starts three forges. The route shares waitingAddress with /forges/start, and new-forge-stranger was in the green run.
Try it: open / signed out, type a name and press Make my forge. With JavaScript on you land on the claim form with no code to copy. With it off you get the setup page with one link.

This run I merged the 6 new commits from main, so the pull is current. There were no conflicts and I added no code. The bun scripts/gate.ts and bun x tsc --noEmit runs printed nothing, and the 25 tests in test/stranger-three-screens.test.ts and test/home-start-forge.test.ts pass. The check output also carried a sandbox note that sunny-day--localhost:80 was denied; I did not look into it. I did not rerun bun scripts/design-lint.ts or the wider set of claim and stranger tests after the merge. I did not look at the page at 360 px, light and dark.

The earlier asks are met. The home form is covered by /forges/start and data-js, and the claim-code pattern lives in one place, claim_code.ts. The waiting page is static and its copy is split into separate lines. walkOn and the second waiting screen are gone. The doc lists the three paths. The tests cover the 303, the flag script, a malformed code, the static page and the polling script. The code only ever travels in the fragment, and waitingAddress validates both the name and the code. The 303 is no-store, and everything works with JavaScript off. The clone lacks c8cb4f178be6, so I judged the change as presented rather than the diff since that head.
Non-blocking: no test posts /forges/new with js=1. The shared waitingAddress and the new-forge-stranger run cover it for now, but add one when the stranger spawn limit allows.
