Adding e2e specs for the submission page found a defect in the page they were written for, which is what they were for.
One limiter counted page loads and submissions against the same twenty-per-quarter-hour allowance, so a sender working through a box of stock ran out after ten items — the exact person the feature exists for, and the exact case the limiter's own comment said must not be refused. The comment said refusing them costs a consignment while the number quietly did it.
Worse, the page could not tell a 429 from a 404. `fetchIntakeLink` treated any non-OK response as "no link", so a throttled sender was told "This link is not active" and sent to ask for a replacement — which could not have helped, because the problem was their address and a minute of patience. Two conditions needing opposite reactions were sharing a message.
Now two limiters, because the two requests cost different things. Reading a link hits one indexed row and writes nothing, so that allowance is generous at 120: someone re-reading the form or losing their signal should never be told to wait. Submitting writes up to six files, so that is the one worth bounding, at 30 — more than anyone photographing items can manage and far less than a script would want.
The page gains a third state. Unknown, revoked and used-up still collapse into one "not active" card, because whether a link exists is not something a stranger needs to learn. Throttled is deliberately kept apart from them, since "wait a moment" and "go and ask for another link" are opposite instructions.
Measured rather than assumed, on a freshly started process both times: before, 25 page loads produced 14 rejections; after, 40 produce none. The first attempt at that measurement was wrong and worth recording — the restart had failed with EADDRINUSE, so it read 30 of 30 against the old process's already-exhausted store.
The two specs now pass in a full parallel run alongside everything else. They are scoped the way #241 asks: unique run ids, assertions naming only this run's rows, nothing asserted about the table as a whole.
Backend: 284 integration, 309 unit. Frontend: build clean, lint unchanged at 2 pre-existing warnings.
Ref #222, #241
Where someone with no account sends in photos of one item. Route /submit/:token, outside the authentik gate by design: the token in the URL is the whole access control, which is what #222 chose deliberately over accounts.
One state for every refusal, matching the server's single 404. Unknown, revoked and used-up links all render the same "this link is not active" card, because saying which kind of dead it was would tell a stranger whether a link they guessed at exists — the server is careful about that and the page must not undo it.
`beforeUpload` returns false so antd keeps the files rather than uploading each one as it is picked. The submission is then a single request the server can accept or refuse as a unit, which is what makes the transaction on the other side meaningful.
The accepted types and the six-file cap are stated here so the picker offers exactly what will be taken, but both are checked again server-side, because everything on this page is under the sender's control.
The fetch effect guards against a late response from a previous token overwriting the current answer, which is reachable simply by editing the URL.
TypeScript caught a real mistake rather than a stylistic one: `.filter((f): f is File => ...)` on antd's originFileObj does not narrow, because RcFile extends File and the predicate would widen rather than narrow. flatMap avoids the predicate entirely.
Verified in a browser rather than by inspection: a throwaway Playwright run against the live stack confirmed the form renders for a good token, the inactive card renders for a bad one, and a photo can actually be sent and acknowledged. The database then showed the item at status pending with the default price, the draft carrying the note and its originating link, the image row written, the link's counter at one — and zero storefront-visible items, which is the property that matters most.
