+\# CLAUDE.md - Project Pravda
+
+
+
+\## Overview
+
+
+
+\*\*Pravda\*\* is a Python-based Dockerized service that monitors Donald Trump's Truth Social feed using the `truthbrush` library. It relays posts to Discord via Webhooks with intelligent media handling (transcoding/splitting) and supports interactive message components.
+
+
+
+\## Tech Stack
+
+
+
+\* \*\*Language:\*\* Python 3.12+
+
+\* \*\*Core Libs:\*\* `truthbrush`, `requests`, `fastapi`, `uvicorn`, `ffmpeg-python`
+
+\* \*\*System Tools:\*\* `ffmpeg` (installed in container)
+
+\* \*\*Deployment:\*\* Docker, Gitea Actions
+
+
+
+\## Architecture
+
+
+
+The application runs two concurrent processes:
+
+
+
+1\. \*\*The Poller:\*\* Loops infinitely, checking `truthbrush` for new posts. Processed posts are cached (SQLite/File) to prevent duplicates.
+
+2\. \*\*The Server:\*\* A FastAPI instance listening on port \*\*8080\*\* to handle Discord Interaction Webhooks (button clicks).
+
+
+
+\## Commands
+
+
+
+\### Local Development
+
+
+
+```bash
+
+\# Install dependencies
+
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+
+
+\# Run locally (requires ENV vars set)
+
+python main.py
+
+
+
+\# Run unit tests
+
+pytest
+
+
+
+```
+
+
+
+\### Docker Operations
+
+
+
+```bash
+
+\# Build image
+
+docker build -t pravda .
+
+
+
+\# Run in background (Poller + Server)
+
+docker run -d \\
+
+&nbsp; -e DISCORD\_WEBHOOK="your\_webhook\_url" \\
+
+&nbsp; -e DISCORD\_PUBLIC\_KEY="your\_app\_public\_key" \\
+
+&nbsp; -v $(pwd)/data:/data \\
+
+&nbsp; -p 8080:8080 \\
+
+&nbsp; pravda
+
+
+
+\# Manual Invocation (One-off relay of specific post)
+
+\# Overrides normal execution loop
+
+docker run --rm \\
+
+&nbsp; -e DISCORD\_WEBHOOK="your\_webhook\_url" \\
+
+&nbsp; pravda https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/123456789
+
+
+
+```
+
+
+
+\## Environment Variables
+
+
+
+| Variable | Description | Required |
+
+| --- | --- | --- |
+
+| `DISCORD\_WEBHOOK` | The Discord Webhook URL for posting messages. | Yes |
+
+| `DISCORD\_APPLICATION\_ID` | App ID (for component construction). | Yes |
+
+| `DISCORD\_PUBLIC\_KEY` | Public Key for verifying interaction signatures. | Yes (if Server enabled) |
+
+| `POLL\_INTERVAL` | Seconds between checks (default: `300`). | No |
+
+| `TRUTH\_USER` | Target username (default: `realDonaldTrump`). | No |
+
+| `DB\_PATH` | Path to SQLite DB for tracking seen IDs (default: `/data/seen.db`). | No |
+
+
+
+\## Application Logic Requirements
+
+
+
+\### 1. Media Handling (The "Smart" Relay)
+
+
+
+\* \*\*Images:\*\* Download and attach directly.
+
+\* \*\*Videos:\*\*
+
+\* \*\*Must\*\* use `ffmpeg` to re-encode to `H.264/AAC` (MP4 container) for maximum Discord compatibility.
+
+\* \*\*Constraint:\*\* Output file must be `< 50MB` (Discord Nitro limit safeguard).
+
+\* \*\*Logic:\*\* If > 50MB, attempt to downscale resolution or lower bitrate.
+
+
+
+
+
+\* \*\*Limits:\*\*
+
+\* Discord allows max 10 attachments per message.
+
+\* Discord allows max 2000 chars per message.
+
+\* \*\*Splitting:\*\* If a post exceeds these limits, split the content into a thread or sequential messages. "Part 1/X" style.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+\### 2. Interaction Handler (FastAPI)
+
+
+
+\* Expose `POST /interactions`.
+
+\* Verify Ed25519 signature using `DISCORD\_PUBLIC\_KEY`.
+
+\* \*\*Component 1 (Delete):\*\* Check if user has `MANAGE\_MESSAGES` permission (or allow-list). Delete the webhook message.
+
+\* \*\*Component 2 (Raw):\*\* Reply with `flags: 64` (Ephemeral) containing the raw JSON snippet of the post.
+
+
+
+\### 3. Gitea Action Workflow
+
+
+
+Create `.gitea/workflows/build-push.yaml`:
+
+
+
+\* \*\*Trigger:\*\* On `push` to any branch.
+
+\* \*\*Steps:\*\*
+
+1\. Checkout code.
+
+2\. Login to Gitea Registry using `${{ secrets.REGISTRY\_USERNAME }}` and `${{ secrets.REGISTRY\_PASSWORD }}`.
+
+3\. Build Docker image.
+
+4\. Tag: `gitea.stevedudenhoeffer.com/steve/pravda:${{ gitea.ref\_name }}`.
+
+5\. If branch is `main`, also tag `:latest`.
+
+6\. Push all tags.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+\## Dockerfile Specification
+
+
+
+\* \*\*Base:\*\* `python:3.12-slim`
+
+\* \*\*System Deps:\*\* `ffmpeg`, `git` (needed for truthbrush?)
+
+\* \*\*Entrypoint:\*\* A script `entrypoint.sh` that detects arguments.
+
+\* If args provided (URL), run "One-off Mode".
+
+\* If no args, run "Daemon Mode" (Poller + Uvicorn).
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+\## Code Style
+
+
+
+\* \*\*Formatter:\*\* `black`
+
+\* \*\*Linter:\*\* `ruff`
+
+\* \*\*Typing:\*\* Strong typing enforced (`mypy`).
+
+\* \*\*Error Handling:\*\* Never crash the poller loop on a network error. Log to `stderr` and retry.
+
+
+
+\## Example Interaction Payload (JSON)
+
+
+
+When sending the webhook, include components:
+
+
+
+```json
+
+{
+
+&nbsp; "content": "Post text here...",
+
+&nbsp; "components": \[
+
+&nbsp;   {
+
+&nbsp;     "type": 1,
+
+&nbsp;     "components": \[
+
+&nbsp;       {
+
+&nbsp;         "type": 2,
+
+&nbsp;         "style": 4, 
+
+&nbsp;         "label": "Delete",
+
+&nbsp;         "custom\_id": "delete\_msg"
+
+&nbsp;       },
+
+&nbsp;       {
+
+&nbsp;         "type": 2,
+
+&nbsp;         "style": 2,
+
+&nbsp;         "label": "View Raw",
+
+&nbsp;         "custom\_id": "view\_raw"
+
+&nbsp;       },
+
+&nbsp;       {
+
+&nbsp;         "type": 2,
+
+&nbsp;         "style": 5,
+
+&nbsp;         "label": "Original Post",
+
+&nbsp;         "url": "https://truthsocial.com/..."
+
+&nbsp;       }
+
+&nbsp;     ]
+
+&nbsp;   }
+
+&nbsp; ]
+
+}
+
+
+
+```
