+## news-digest — per-item × button + cross-device hidden tray (2026-04-24)
+
+Daily Digest pages now have a small × on each item that hides it
+from the page. State persists server-side at `/output/hidden.json`,
+so the same hidden set follows the user across devices (home, ipad,
+laptop, work). A "Hidden (N)" tray at the bottom of each page lists
+items hidden FROM THE CURRENT PAGE with a restore button per row;
+older hidden ids that aren't on this page sit silently in
+`hidden.json` and continue to filter future editions that include
+the same article.
+
+Architecture change: `news-digest-web` swapped from `nginx:alpine`
+to a FastAPI app on uvicorn, built from the **same Dockerfile** as
+the worker. One image, two containers — the worker's cron-driven
+ENTRYPOINT runs in `news-digest-worker`, while compose overrides
+entrypoint+command to launch `uvicorn web:app` in `news-digest-web`.
+Drops one image dep, adds three endpoints:
+- `GET  /api/hidden`   — JSON array of hidden item ids
+- `POST /api/hide`     — `{id}` → adds to hidden.json
+- `POST /api/restore`  — `{id}` → removes from hidden.json
+
+Item ids are stable 12-char sha1 prefixes (`reddit:<post_id>` /
+`miniflux:<entry_id>`) computed in `digest.py` at render time so
+hide-once means hide-forever-for-that-article. Storage: single
+JSON array, atomic writes via tempfile+rename, threading.Lock
+inside the single uvicorn worker. No auth — same trust boundary
+as the digest itself (LAN-only on port 8181).
+
+The deploy playbook also dropped its `DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0` fallback
+(no longer needed post docker-ce 29 migration) and gained three
+verify steps: `/api/hidden` returns a JSON array, `app.js` is
+reachable, and a synthetic `smoke-<ts>` id round-trips through
+hide → list → restore → list.
