 ## [Unreleased]

- Document missing environment variables in installation guide: `SLOG_LEVEL`, `COOKIE_PREFIX`, `FORCED_LANGUAGE`, and `TARGET_DISABLE_KEEPALIVE` ([#1086](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/1086))

 <!-- This changes the project to: -->

+- Add `contentLength` variable to bot expressions.
+- Add `COOKIE_SAME_SITE_MODE` to force anubis cookies SameSite value, and downgrade automatically from `None` to `Lax` if cookie is insecure.
+- Fix lock convoy problem in decaymap ([#1103](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/1103)).
+- Fix lock convoy problem in bbolt by implementing the actor pattern ([#1103](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/1103)).
+- Document missing environment variables in installation guide: `SLOG_LEVEL`, `COOKIE_PREFIX`, `FORCED_LANGUAGE`, and `TARGET_DISABLE_KEEPALIVE` ([#1086](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/1086)).
+- Add validation warning when persistent storage is used without setting signing keys.
+- Fixed `robots2policy` to properly group consecutive user agents into `any:` instead of only processing the last one ([#925](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/925)).
+- Add the [`s3api` storage backend](./admin/policies.mdx#s3api) to allow Anubis to use S3 API compatible object storage as its storage backend.
+- Make `cmd/containerbuild` support commas for separating elements of the `--docker-tags` argument as well as newlines.
+- Add the `DIFFICULTY_IN_JWT` option, which allows one to add the `difficulty` field in the JWT claims which indicates the difficulty of the token ([#1063](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/1063)).
+- Ported the client-side JS to TypeScript to avoid egregious errors in the future.
+- Fixes concurrency problems with very old browsers ([#1082](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/1082)).
+- Randomly use the Refresh header instead of the meta refresh tag in the metarefresh challenge.
+- Update OpenRC service to truncate the runtime directory before starting Anubis.
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+Sometimes the enhanced temporal assurance in [#1038](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/1038) and [#1068](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/pull/1068) could backfire because Chromium and its ilk randomize the amount of time they wait in order to avoid a timing side channel attack. This has been fixed by both increasing the amount of time a client has to wait for the metarefresh and preact challenges as well as making the server side logic more permissive.

+
+If you run BotStopper in a multi-tenant environment where each tenant needs its own branding, BotStopper supports the ability to use request header values to direct asset reads to different folders under your `OVERLAY_FOLDER`. One of the most common ways to do this is based on the HTTP Host of the request. For example, if you set `ASSET_LOOKUP_HEADER=Host` in BotStopper's environment:

+```text
+$OVERLAY_FOLDER

+│   ├── css
+│   │   ├── custom.css

+
+Requests to `test.anubis.techaro.lol` will load assets in `$OVERLAY_FOLDER/test.anubis.techaro.lol/static` and all other requests will load them from `$OVERLAY_FOLDER/static`.

-| `STRIP_BASE_PREFIX`            | `false`                 | If set to `true`, strips the base prefix from request paths when forwarding to the target server. This is useful when your target service expects to receive requests without the base prefix. For example, with `BASE_PREFIX=/foo` and `STRIP_BASE_PREFIX=true`, a request to `/foo/bar` would be forwarded to the target as `/bar`.                                                                                                                                                                   |
-| `TARGET`                       | `http://localhost:3923` | The URL of the service that Anubis should forward valid requests to. Supports Unix domain sockets, set this to a URI like so: `unix:///path/to/socket.sock`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
-| `USE_REMOTE_ADDRESS`           | unset                   | If set to `true`, Anubis will take the client's IP from the network socket. For production deployments, it is expected that a reverse proxy is used in front of Anubis, which pass the IP using headers, instead.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
-| `USE_SIMPLIFIED_EXPLANATION`   | false                   | If set to `true`, replaces the text when clicking "Why am I seeing this?" with a more simplified text for a non-tech-savvy audience.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
-| `WEBMASTER_EMAIL`              | unset                   | If set, shows a contact email address when rendering error pages.

See [Header-based overlay dispatch](./botstopper.mdx#header-based-overlay-dispatch) for more details.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
+| `BASE_PREFIX`                  | unset                   | If set, adds a global prefix to all Anubis endpoints (everything starting with `/.within.website/x/anubis/`). For example, setting this to `/myapp` would make Anubis accessible at `/myapp/` instead of `/`. This is useful when running Anubis behind a reverse proxy that routes based on path prefixes.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |

This should be set to the domain you bought from your registrar (EG: `techaro.lol` if your webapp is running on `anubis.techaro.lol`). See this [stackoverflow explanation of cookies](https://stackoverflow.com/a/1063760) for more information.<br/><br/>Note that unlike `REDIRECT_DOMAINS`, you should never include a port number in this variable.                                                                                                                         |

+| `COOKIE_SECURE`                | `true`                  | If set to `true`, enables the [Secure flag](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Guides/Cookies#block_access_to_your_cookies), meaning that the cookies will only be transmitted over HTTPS. If Anubis is used in an unsecure context (plain HTTP), this will be need to be set to false                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
+| `COOKIE_SAME_SITE`             | `None`                  | Controls the cookie’s [`SameSite` attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie#samesitesamesite-value). Allowed: `None`, `Lax`, `Strict`, `Default`. `None` permits cross-site use but modern browsers require it to be **Secure**—so if `COOKIE_SECURE=false` or you serve over plain HTTP, use `Lax` (recommended) or `Strict` or the cookie will be rejected. `Default` uses the Go runtime’s `SameSiteDefaultMode`. `None` will be downgraded to `Lax` automatically if cookie is set NOT to be secure. |
+| `DIFFICULTY`                   | `4`                     | The difficulty of the challenge, or the number of leading zeroes that must be in successful responses.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |

+### `s3api`
+
+A network-backed storage layer backed by [object storage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_storage), specifically using the [S3 API](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/Type_API_Reference.html). This can be backed by any S3-compatible object storage service such as:
+
+- [AWS S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/)
+- [Cloudflare R2](https://www.cloudflare.com/developer-platform/products/r2/)
+- [Hetzner Object Storage](https://www.hetzner.com/storage/object-storage/)
+- [Minio](https://www.min.io/)
+- [Tigris](https://www.tigrisdata.com/)
+
+If you are using a cloud platform, they likely provide an S3 compatible object storage service. If not, you may want to choose [one of the fastest options](https://www.tigrisdata.com/blog/benchmark-small-objects/).
+
+| Should I use this backend?                                    | Yes/no |
+| :------------------------------------------------------------ | :----- |
+| Are you running only one instance of Anubis for this service? | 🚫 No  |
+| Does your service get a lot of traffic?                       | ✅ Yes |
+| Do you want to store data persistently when Anubis restarts?  | ✅ Yes |
+| Do you run Anubis without mutable filesystem storage?         | ✅ Yes |
+
+:::note
+
+Using this backend will cause a lot of S3 operations, at least one for creating challenges, one for invalidating challenges, one for updating challenges to prevent double-spends, and one for removing challenges.
+
+:::
+
+#### Configuration
+
+The `s3api` backend takes the following configuration options:
+
+| Name         | Type    | Example                                                              | Description                                                                                                                                 |
+| :----------- | :------ | :------------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `bucketName` | string  | The name of the dedicated bucket for Anubis to store information in. |
+| `pathStyle`  | boolean | `false`                                                              | If true, use path-style S3 API operations. Please consult your storage provider's documentation if you don't know what you should put here. |
+
+:::note
+
+You should probably enable a lifecycle expiration rule for buckets containing Anubis data. Here is an example policy:
+
+```json
+{
+  "Rules": [
+    {
+      "Status": "Enabled",
+      "Expiration": {
+        "Days": 7
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Adjust this as facts and circumstances demand, but 7 days should be enough for anyone.
+
+:::
+
+Example:
+
+Assuming your environment looks like this:
+
+```sh
+# All of the following are fake credentials that look like real ones.
+AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=accordingToAllKnownRulesOfAviation
+AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=thereIsNoWayABeeShouldBeAbleToFly
+AWS_REGION=yow
+AWS_ENDPOINT_URL_S3=https://yow.s3.probably-not-malware.lol
+```
+
+Then your configuration would look like this:
+
+```yaml
+store:
+  backend: s3api
+  parameters:
+    bucketName: techaro-prod-anubis
+    pathStyle: false
+```
+
 ### `valkey`

 [Valkey](https://valkey.io/) is an in-memory key/value store that clients access over the network. This allows multiple instances of Anubis to share information and does not require each instance of Anubis to have persistent filesystem storage.

One of them is the "meta refresh" method[1], but the other is with the Refresh header[2]. Both are semantically identical and supported with browsers as old as Chrome version 1. Given that they are basically the same thing, this patch makes Anubis randomly select between them by using the challenge random data's first character. This will fire about 50% of the time. I expect this to have no impact. If this works out fine, then I will implement some kind of fallback logic for the fast challenge such that admins can opt into allowing clients with a no-js configuration to pass the fast challenge. This needs to bake in the oven though.
