Two failures today were invisible: the ngit/Amber remote signer stalling
mid-push, and the deploy timer skipping while origin/main had moved.
- scripts/auto-deploy.sh records the reason for every skip (and the run time)
to ~/.local/state/skatespots-deploy/{last-skip,last-run}.
- scripts/ops-health.sh reads that back and prints repo/push sync, the skip
reason, the throttle window and timer health; exit 1 when action is needed.
--probe-push runs a bounded real push (the only true signer probe),
--notify desktop-notifies (deduped), --quiet is silent when healthy.
- Periodic watch: skatespots-ops-health.{service,timer} (every 15 min) plus
scripts/install-ops-health-timer.sh.

scripts/archive-relay.mjs snapshots the app's own content off
goskatespots.nostr1.com to gzipped JSONL of the raw signed events, so a
restore can republish them verbatim to any relay. scripts/restore-relay.mjs
re-verifies signatures and publishes to an explicit --to (no default, to
avoid replaying a snapshot onto the live relay). scripts/backup-relay.sh
wraps it and pushes with restic when a repo is configured; a weekly systemd
user timer runs it.
Scoped on purpose: that relay is PUBLIC and carries general traffic (15.7k
kind-0 profiles, 2k kind-30078 app-data from other clients, 408 foreign
NIP-99 listings), so the archive keeps only the app's own kinds/tags plus
contributor profiles, SkateSpots labels, and reports that reference archived
content. ~114 events / 63 KiB.
Not configured yet: offsite (restic.env) and a full restore drill.
