Claude f72388a559 refactor: rename packages, helpers and app code after the NIP event renames
Follow-up to the event class renames: the names around those classes now
match too.

Quartz (published API, every old name kept as a @Deprecated alias/forwarder):
- nip51Lists packages moved: followList -> starterPack, hashtagList -> interestList,
  peopleList -> followSet, labeledBookmarkList -> bookmarkSet. The old packages
  keep a Deprecated.kt with typealiases and forwarding extension functions
  (ReplaceWith points at the new package).
- LnZapPrivateEvent -> PrivateZapEvent, LnZapReceiptValidator -> ZapReceiptValidator,
  ChannelListDiff -> PublicChatListDiff, HashtagListDiff -> InterestListDiff.
- Kind 30063 now indexes NIP-82 release notes for search (never NIP-51 content,
  which can hold encrypted private items). searchable-events docs updated.

App code (amethyst, commons, desktopApp, cli; no aliases needed):
- model packages nip51Lists.{hashtagLists,peopleList,labeledBookmarkLists,relayFeeds}
  -> {interestLists,followSets,bookmarkSets,favoriteRelays}.
- State/cache/UI names derived from the old event names: HashtagListState ->
  InterestListState, PeopleListsState -> FollowSetsState, FollowListsState ->
  StarterPacksState, LabeledBookmarkList -> BookmarkSet, RelayFeedListState ->
  FavoriteRelayListState, ContactCardsState -> UserAssertionsState, NIP90* view
  models/renderers -> Dvm*, LnZap* handlers -> Zap*, SealedRumor* -> Seal*, and
  Account.peopleLists/followLists/hashtagList -> followSets/starterPacks/interestList.
- String literals were left untouched, so preference keys and @SerialName values
  stored on disk are unchanged.
- The generic PeopleList UI model (shared by follow sets and starter packs) and the
  EmojiPackSelection route (which shows a kind 30030 pack) keep their names.

Docs: plans, brainstorms, changelogs, skills and READMEs use the new names.

name: searchable-events
description: The NIP-50 indexing surface of Quartz — the `SearchableEvent` interface, which event kinds are searchable, exactly what text each kind's `indexableContent()` contributes, how the SQLite/filesystem stores consume it, and the NIP-50 `SearchQuery` extension grammar plus `SearchRelayListEvent` (kind 10007). Use when making a kind searchable, changing what a kind indexes, diffing the searchable set at a Quartz version bump (external search engines mirror this table), debugging why an event is or isn't found by search, or working with search extensions (`include:spam`, `domain:`, …).

# Searchable Events — the NIP-50 indexing surface
## The contract
`quartz/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/vitorpamplona/quartz/nip50Search/SearchableEvent.kt`:
```kotlin
interface SearchableEvent {
fun indexableContent(): String
}
```
One method; marker and extractor in one. An event kind is searchable **iff** its event class
implements this interface **and** the class is wired into `EventFactory` (the stores probe
searchability by kind through `EventFactory.create` — an unwired implementor is invisible).
Rules every implementation follows (keep them when adding one):
- **Plain text out.** Return the human-meaningful fields joined with `"\n"` (a handful of
metadata-ish kinds use `" "`); no markup stripping is performed — markdown/asciidoc content
goes in raw, JSON-content kinds (kind 0 metadata, marketplace stalls, channel info) **parse
first and join the extracted fields**, never the raw JSON.
- **Never throw, never null.** There is no defensive wrapper at any call site; a throw aborts
the insert transaction. Parsed-JSON implementations use `?.let { … } ?: ""`.
- **Only public data.** Encrypted content stays out (e.g. kind 30382 contact cards index only
the public petname/summary/topics, never the NIP-44 payload).
- Typical shapes: `content` alone (~33 kinds); `listOfNotNull(title(), content)`;
`listOfNotNull(title(), summary(), content)`; lists index `title() + description()`.
## The full kind table
**`references/searchable-kinds.md`** in this skill holds the authoritative table — every
implementor with its kind number, class, and the exact `indexableContent()` expression
(126 concrete classes / 129 kind values as of 2026-08). Diff that file at a version bump to
answer "did the searchable set or any kind's indexed text change?".
Notables that surprise people:
- **Kind 9735 (zap receipt) indexes the embedded zap request's content**
(`zapRequest?.content.orEmpty()`) — receipts are searchable by the zapper's comment.
- **Kind 0 / 31990** index many profile fields space-joined (name, about, nip05, lud16,
website, picture URL, …).
- **Kind 30063** (`ReleaseArtifactSetEvent`) serves both NIP-51 release artifact sets and NIP-82
software releases: it indexes `title()\ndescription()`, plus the release notes in `content` only
for NIP-82 releases (NIP-51 `content` can be encrypted private items).
- Poll kinds (1068, 6969) append each option label on its own line.
## MANDATORY maintenance when you touch this surface
Adding `SearchableEvent` to a kind, removing it, or changing any `indexableContent()` body:
1. **Update `references/searchable-kinds.md`** in the same PR (external search engines — e.g.
the Vespa-backed store's `SearchExtractors` — mirror this table at pin bumps; a silent
change ships them stale search results).
2. **Remember existing databases don't reindex themselves.** Old rows keep their old (or
missing) FTS text until `IEventStore.reindexFullTextSearch()` runs — the KDoc on that method
is the contract. App-side, schedule the resumable overload after shipping such a change.
3. New implementors must be **registered in `EventFactory`** or the reindex scan and kind
pre-filter (`FullTextSearchModule.isSearchableKind`) will never see them.
Eligibility policy: a kind becomes searchable when it carries human-authored, human-meaningful
text (titles, bodies, names, descriptions). Pure-machine kinds (reactions, follow lists, zaps
minus their comment, relay lists) stay out to keep the index small.
## How the stores consume it
**SQLite** (`nip01Core/store/sqlite/FullTextSearchModule.kt`):
`CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE event_fts USING fts5(content, content='', contentless_delete=1)` —
contentless, `rowid` = `event_headers.row_id`, an `AFTER DELETE` trigger keeps it in sync. On
insert (when FTS is on and not deferred): `if (event is SearchableEvent)` → bind
`event.indexableContent()` — the only method ever called. Tokenization is entirely SQLite's
default FTS5 `unicode61`; queries are always a bound `event_fts MATCH ?` (never concatenated),
ordered by bm25 `rank` then `created_at DESC`. Query-side semantics (relevance ordering,
extension stripping, FTS-off behavior, deferred catch-up) are rules STORE-S01…S06 in the
`event-store-semantics` skill.
**Filesystem store** (`jvmMain/.../store/fs/FsIndexer.kt` + `FsSearchTokenizer.kt`): tokenizes
`indexableContent()` itself, approximating `unicode61` (split on non-letter/digit, lowercase);
the same tokenizer runs on queries so drift cancels.
## NIP-50 client side
**`SearchQuery`** (`nip50Search/SearchQuery.kt`) — typed parse of the `search` filter string
into `terms` + `extensions`. A whitespace token is an extension iff it looks like
`lowercasekey:value` (the value not starting with `//`, so URLs stay free text); duplicate keys
keep the last; unknown extensions are preserved (`extension(key)`). Typed accessors:
`includeSpam`, `domain`, `language`, `sentiment`, `nsfw`. `stripExtensions()` /
`Filter.strippingSearchExtensions()` is the bridge the built-in stores use — unsupported
extensions are **ignored** (NIP-50), so an extensions-only search collapses to an unconstrained
query, never match-nothing. A server-side store that implements its own extensions
(`observer:`, `sort:rank`, …) receives the raw string (see the `IEventStore` KDoc) and should
parse with `SearchQuery.parse` so its syntax stays compatible with what clients send.
**`SearchRelayListEvent`** — **kind 10007**, the user's search-relay list (NIP-51-style, public
tags + NIP-44 private tags; *not* a `SearchableEvent` itself). Client consumption:
`commons/.../actions/SearchActions.kt`, bootstrap defaults in
`commons/.../account/AccountBootstrapEvents.kt`.
Don't confuse it with `commons/.../commons/search/SearchQuery.kt` — an app-level local-feed
query model (authors/kinds/hashtags/or-terms), unrelated to the NIP-50 wire string.
## Tests (executable spec)
- `commonTest/.../nip50Search/SearchQueryTest.kt` — the extension grammar, token by token.
- `commonTest/.../store/sqlite/SearchTest.kt` — per-kind indexing (kind 0 profile fields,
40/41 channel JSON, 31924/30617), extension-token ignoring, reindex/resumable-reindex,
FTS cleanup on replaceable rotation.
- `commonTest/.../store/sqlite/SearchRelevanceOrderTest.kt` — bm25-before-recency ordering,
limit-after-score, multi-filter rank union.
- `commonTest/.../store/sqlite/NoFullTextSearchTest.kt` — FTS-off contract.
- `jvmTest/.../store/fs/FsSearchTest.kt` — tokenizer parity for the filesystem store.
