feat: fold the TTFolderPath refresh into --output

TL.db syncs between machines whose absolute paths differ, so a single
TTFolderPath column cannot be correct on both at once -- the stored paths are
only trustworthy on the machine that wrote them. That made --updatepaths a
mandatory prelude to every --output rather than the one-time setup step it
looks like.

--output now refreshes the column from the TumblThree Index metadata before
exporting. The root comes from the first non-flag argument, else
appSettings:PathTTRoot. With no root available it says so and exports whatever
TL.db already holds; a root whose Index folder is missing is a hard stop, since
silently exporting stale paths is the failure this change exists to prevent.
--norefresh skips the refresh for a pure export.

The scan is extracted from UpdateBlogPathsRunner.Run into a reusable Scan() that
returns counts instead of only printing them, so --updatepaths keeps its
per-file detail while --output prints a single summary line rather than a few
hundred lines ahead of the export.

Verified against a throwaway database: a stale cross-machine path is repaired
and the export lands in the correct local folder; no configured root warns and
continues (exit 0); a missing Index folder stops (exit 1); --norefresh skips the
refresh and exports (exit 0).

+# AGENTS.md
+
+## Project Overview
+- **Primary Language**: C# (.NET 8 Console Application)
+- **Key Libraries**: RestSharp, Newtonsoft.Json, System.Data.SQLite, Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration
+- **Purpose**: Tumblr API data harvester for collecting notes, posts, likes, and replies, storing results in SQLite.
+
+## Architectural Patterns
+- CLI entry point in `Program.cs` with workflow orchestration
+- `DataAccess.cs`: Database operations, `ApiKeyPool` (API key management), `APIAccess` (Tumblr client)
+- `ResponseNotes.cs`: Tumblr API response models
+- Round-robin API key rotation with rate-limit tracking
+- Automatic console color assignment per API key for output differentiation
+- No-argument mode (`Program.TraverseDirectory`) ingests `.txt` blog export files into `Posts` via `DataAccess.AddPost`. Recognized field prefixes live in `TraverseDirectoryFieldPrefixes`; `Body:` and `Downloaded files:` collect every following line up to the next recognized prefix (multi-line values). `RootURL` is populated from a `Reblog root url:` line the same way it's populated from the API-based `--likes` flow — both paths converge on `DataAccess.AddPost`'s `rootURL` parameter, which `UpdatePost` only overwrites when the incoming value is non-empty (existing `RootURL` is preserved otherwise)
+
+## Developer Guidelines
+
+### Code Formatting
+- 4-space indentation, no tabs, match existing C# style
+- PascalCase for public members, camelCase for locals
+- Minimize code comments unless explicitly requested
+- Use only existing project libraries; no new dependencies without confirmation
+- Match accessibility modifiers (`public` for models, `internal` for helpers)
+
+### Error Handling
+- Wrap file/network operations in `try-catch`
+- Log non-critical errors (e.g., config write failures) with `[Warning]` prefix
+- Preserve console color state: use save/restore pattern for temporary color changes
+- API rate limits must use `ApiKeyPool.MarkRateLimited()`/`MarkAvailable()`
+
+### API Failure Classification
+Tumblr sits behind a CDN that returns HTML error pages (403, 5xx) which never reach the API. These
+say nothing about the item being fetched, so they must not be recorded as per-item failures.
+
+- A response body that will not parse as JSON did not come from the API. Flag it with
+  `Root.transientFailure`, never as `FAILURE`
+- Transient failures retry in place (`TransientBackoffSeconds`) before the item is skipped; a skipped
+  item stays unmarked in the DB so a later launch retries it
+- `MaxConsecutiveTransient` consecutive transient failures aborts the pass rather than skipping
+  item-by-item against an edge that is refusing all traffic
+- Only call `ApiKeyPool.MarkAvailable()` on a response that actually reached the API. A transport or
+  CDN failure says nothing about the key's standing and must not clear its flag
+- Only a real HTTP 429 (or `meta.status == 429`) counts as a rate limit. Do not infer one from the
+  presence of `X-RateLimit-*` headers, which Tumblr sends on every response
+- Rate limiters must pace with `await AcquireAsync()`. `AttemptAcquire()` does not wait, so a
+  saturated window aborts the run instead of throttling it
+- Long-running commands return exit 3 when a pass ends incomplete (rate-limit pause, breaker trip, or
+  skipped items), so a caller can distinguish that from a clean run
+
+### `IsActive` Is Not Ours To Write
+`Blogs.IsActive`, `Posts.IsActive` and `Notes.IsActive` are removal flags set by other tools
+(Rolodex). `0` means removed; anything else, including `NULL`, means live. Full detail in
+`URLNotesGrabberCORE/TL.db.md`.
+
+- **Never write any `IsActive` column.** Not in an `INSERT` column list, not in an `UPDATE`,
+  and never via `INSERT OR REPLACE` on these tables — that resets the column default and
+  un-removes the row. Re-crawling a removed row must refresh its content and leave the flag
+  where it was
+- **Filter at selection, not at write.** Every query that *selects* posts, notes or blogs
+  excludes removed rows. Update statements stay keyed on a row the caller already selected;
+  filtering them would spend API quota and then fail to persist the result
+- `Posts.IsActive` and `Notes.IsActive` are **optional** — they are absent from databases
+  that predate them, and naming a missing column is a hard SQLite error. Compose the filter
+  with `AndIsActive`/`WhereIsActive` in `DataAccess.cs`, which return
+  `COALESCE(IsActive, 1) = 1` only when `HasIsActiveColumn` finds the column. `Blogs.IsActive`
+  is not optional and is filtered directly
+- Do not add these columns from this app, and do not add them to the missing-column list in
+  `verify-db-schema.sql`
+
+### `DateModified` Tracks Real Changes Only
+`Blogs.DateModified`, `Posts.DateModified` and `Notes.DateModified` must move only when a
+column beside `DateModified` itself actually changed. Re-crawling or re-ingesting identical
+content has to leave the row — and its timestamp — untouched, or downstream consumers cannot
+tell a refreshed row from a rewritten one.
+
+- Enforce it in the `WHERE` clause, not in C#. Every `UPDATE` that sets `DateModified` ends
+  with an `AND (<col> <> @param OR ...)` term covering every column in its `SET` list, so
+  SQLite matches zero rows on a no-op and never writes
+- Compare NULL-safely: `IFNULL(col, '') <> IFNULL(@param, '')` for text,
+  `IFNULL(col, 0) <> @param` for integer flags. A bare `col <> @param` is NULL on a NULL
+  column and silently skips the row that most needs writing
+- Where NULL is not equivalent to the default, spell it out. The `HasBeenOutput = 0` stamps
+  use `(HasBeenOutput IS NULL OR HasBeenOutput <> 0)` because the selection queries test
+  `HasBeenOutput = 0`, which a NULL would never match
+- Dynamic `SET` lists (`UpdatePostContentFields`) build the guard alongside the assignments
+  so the two lists cannot drift apart
+- These statements now return 0 rows for "found but unchanged" as well as "not found".
+  Callers that read `ExecuteNonQuery()` must not treat 0 as "row missing"
+
+**`Posts.NotesGatheredDateTime` is crawl bookkeeping, not content.** It moves on every
+`-collect` pass and says nothing about the post, so it must never move `DateModified` on its
+own. `UpdatePostMarkNotesCollected` still writes it every pass but wraps the timestamp in
+`DateModified = CASE WHEN IFNULL(HasNotesGathered, 0) <> 1 THEN @dateModified ELSE
+DateModified END` — SQLite evaluates `SET` expressions against the pre-`UPDATE` row, so only
+the flag flipping counts as a modification. Use this shape for any column that has to be
+refreshed unconditionally without being a change. `Blogs.LikesLastRefreshed` is the
+deliberate exception: a refresh pass is treated as a real event on the blog row.
+
+**`Blogs.DateAdded` is write-once.** `AddBlog`'s `INSERT` is the only place that sets it. A
+new post arriving for a known blog reopens `HasBeenOutput` but must leave `DateAdded` alone —
+a new post is not a new blog, and rewriting the column both destroys the registration date
+and makes every insert look like a change.
+
+**`"."` in a `Posts` content field means "not supplied", not "empty".** `ReblogRecord`
+(`TraverseDirectory`'s parser for the local `.txt` export tree) and the `--likes` API path
+both default every content field to the literal string `"."` when their source has no value
+for it, then pass that straight to `UpdatePost`. A blog with two export folders in different
+field formats (a duplicate `_2` folder, or a Tumblr export whose field set changed over time)
+sends one record with a real `Title`/`Tags`/`Slug` and another with those fields `"."`
+because that format never had a line for them — and without a guard, re-importing both on
+every run flips the row back and forth forever, bumping `DateModified` on every pass even
+though the true content never changes.
+
+- Every content column in `UpdatePost`'s `SET` list is guarded the same way `RootBlogName`/
+  `RootURL` already were: `col = CASE WHEN @col = '.' THEN col ELSE @col END`. A `"."`
+  parameter leaves the existing value alone instead of overwriting it
+- The change-detection `WHERE` clause carries the same exception —
+  `(@col <> '.' AND IFNULL(col, '') <> @col) OR ...` — so a `"."`-only difference does not
+  make the statement fire at all, and `DateModified` stays put
+- Deliberately narrow: only the literal `"."` is the sentinel. An explicit empty string from
+  a real record still overwrites, same as before this fix. `postID`, `BlogName`, `hasImage`,
+  `ByLikes` are not part of this convention and are unaffected
+- If a new content field is added to `Posts`/`UpdatePost`, decide explicitly whether its
+  source can legitimately supply `"."` as "field absent" before deciding whether it needs
+  the same `CASE` treatment — don't assume every column needs it
+
+**`--ingest` (`UpsertPostFromTextFile`) uses `NULL`, not `"."`, for the same "field absent"
+convention, and reconciling exactly this kind of duplicate IS the feature's job.**
+`IngestMode` strips a trailing `_N` from the folder name before it ever reaches
+`UpsertPostFromTextFile`, so a duplicate export folder collapses onto the same `BlogName` on
+purpose — the whole point is to merge multiple differently-formatted files for the same post
+into one row. `IngestMode.G(key)` returns `null` (not `"."`) when a field's line is absent
+from a given file, `LegacyPostsDbImporter` passes `null` straight from a `NULL` source column,
+and files are walked in raw filesystem enumeration order — never sorted — so which file's call
+lands last for a given `(BlogName, PostID)` is arbitrary.
+
+- Before the fix, the `UPDATE` branch set every column unconditionally, so whichever file
+  processed last for a `PostID` would null out every field its own record didn't carry —
+  silently erasing real `Title`/`Slug`/`Tags`/… another file had, the opposite of what
+  `--ingest` exists to do. This is worse than the `"."` case above: that one only caused
+  churn (the two writes canceled out); this one loses data, and which posts lose which
+  fields depends on filesystem enumeration order
+- Same shape of fix, `NULL` instead of `"."` as the sentinel: `col = CASE WHEN @col IS NULL
+  THEN col ELSE @col END` in the `SET` list, `(@col IS NOT NULL AND IFNULL(col, '') <> @col)
+  OR ...` in the change-detection
+- Same narrow rule: only `NULL` (the field's line was never present in this file) is the
+  sentinel. `G()` already distinguishes this from "present but blank" — a dictionary miss is
+  `null`, an empty value after the prefix is `""` — so an explicitly blank field still
+  overwrites
+- `HasImage` is **not** guarded and remains a known gap: `IngestMode` always computes a
+  concrete `bool` (defaulting `false` when a file has no `Has Image:` line), so there is no
+  way for this function to tell "this format says no image" from "this format doesn't report
+  it at all" without changing the parameter to `bool?` and threading that through
+  `IngestMode`/`LegacyPostsDbImporter`. Fix this the same way if `--ingest` is observed
+  downgrading a post's `HasImage` from `1` to `0`
+
+### Testing
+- No existing test suite; use xUnit if adding tests
+- Test critical logic: `ApiKeyPool` init, color parsing, config persistence
+- Avoid testing one-off CLI workflows
+
+### Git Commit Messages
+- Imperative mood ("Add feature" not "Added feature")
+- Prefix with type: `feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`, `docs:`
+- Keep messages under 72 characters
+- Never commit sensitive data (API keys/tokens)
+
+### API Key Color Rules
+- Unconfigured keys auto-assign colors from a preset palette
+- Auto-assigned colors persist to `appsettings.json`
+- All output for an active key uses its assigned color
+- Temporary color changes (e.g., errors) must restore the key's color afterward

+# `TL.db` — schema notes
+
+The SQLite database behind **URLNotesGrabberCORE** and its sibling crawlers, and the one
+[Rolodex](https://git.basso.land/jim/Rolodex) reads.
+
+Everything below was read out of the live file, not inferred from code. Counts are as of
+**2026-07-29**; re-run the queries at the bottom to refresh them.
+
+- Journal mode: **WAL** — `TL.db-wal` and `TL.db-shm` live beside the file and are part of
+  the database. Copying `TL.db` alone gives you whatever was last checkpointed, not the
+  current state.
+- Page size: 4096.
+
+---
+
+## The three content tables
+
+| Table | Rows | What it is |
+|---|--:|---|
+| `Blogs` | 144,367 | The crawl registry — one row per known blog, plus crawl-state flags |
+| `Posts` | 14,589 | Stored post content. Only 3,602 blogs actually have any |
+| `Notes` | 1,189,604 | The engagement graph: `NoteBlogName` acted on `(RootBlogName, PostID)` |
+
+The engagement graph is the interesting part. 31,888 distinct blogs appear as engagers —
+far more than the 3,602 that have stored posts — which is what makes this a social graph
+rather than a post archive.
+
+### `Blogs`
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE "Blogs" (
+    "BlogName"              TEXT,
+    "HasBeenOutput"         INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    "IsActive"              INTEGER DEFAULT 1,
+    "DateAdded"             TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT '12/24/25',
+    "ByLikes"               INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
+    "LikesPulled"           INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
+    "LikesCursor"           INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    "DateModified"          TEXT,
+    "DateCreated"           TEXT,
+    LikesNewestTimestamp    INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    LikesLastRefreshed      INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    LikesLastNewCount       INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    TTFolderPath            TEXT,
+    PRIMARY KEY("BlogName")
+);
+```
+
+`BlogName` is the primary key, so it is the only indexed way in. There is no index on any
+flag or date — filtering or sorting on those scans all 144k rows, which is affordable
+here and is not on `Notes`.
+
+Flag distribution: `IsActive = 1` on 144,366 of 144,367 rows, `HasBeenOutput = 1` on
+5,369, `ByLikes = 1` on 2. `IsActive` carries a second meaning as of Rolodex — see
+[`Blogs.IsActive`](#blogsisactive--now-written-by-two-applications) below.
+
+The columns after `DateCreated` were added later by `ALTER TABLE`, which is why they carry
+no quoting in the stored DDL. That is the normal way this schema grows.
+
+**`DateAdded` is not written consistently.** 126,423 rows hold ISO `yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss`;
+17,944 hold US-format `M/d/yy` from a bulk import. As text those two sort into different
+parts of the table, so anything ordering or range-filtering on this column has to
+normalise first — see `DateSql` in Rolodex.
+
+### `Posts`
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE "Posts" (
+    "BlogName"              TEXT,
+    "PostID"                INTEGER,
+    "HasNotesGathered"      INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    "reblogURL"             TEXT,
+    "NotFound"              INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    "PostDate"              TEXT,
+    "NotesGatheredDateTime" INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 1729746000,
+    "HasImage"              INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
+    "PostURL"               TEXT,
+    "Slug"                  TEXT,
+    "ReblogKey"             TEXT,
+    "ReblogName"            TEXT,
+    "Summary"               TEXT,
+    "Quote"                 TEXT,
+    "Body"                  TEXT,
+    "Tags"                  TEXT,
+    "Link"                  TEXT,
+    "PhotoURL"              TEXT,
+    "PhotoCaption"          TEXT,
+    "DownloadedFiles"       TEXT,
+    "AudioCaption"          TEXT,
+    "Question"              TEXT,
+    "Answer"                TEXT,
+    "Title"                 TEXT,
+    "ByLikes"               INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
+    "RootBlogName"          TEXT,
+    "RootURL"               TEXT,
+    "DateModified"          TEXT,
+    "DateCreated"           TEXT,
+    PostType                TEXT,
+    PRIMARY KEY("BlogName","PostID")
+);
+```
+
+**The key is `(BlogName, PostID)`, not `PostID`.** This matters more than it looks: 325
+post IDs exist under more than one blog, so an ID on its own is both ambiguous *and*
+unindexed. Any lookup should carry the blog name, and a batch lookup should group by blog
+so it stays on the leading column of the key.
+
+Notable:
+
+- **`PostType` is `NULL` on all 14,589 rows.** The column exists but nothing has ever
+  populated it. Treat it as unpopulated rather than as a type discriminator.
+- `HasImage = 1` on 14,268 rows — nearly all of them. It records that the post *had* a
+  picture, not that a usable URL was kept, so it is not a reliable predictor that anything
+  will render.
+- `PhotoURL` is largely unused; in practice the image markup lives inside `Body`.
+- `NotFound = 1` on 4,663 rows — posts that have since been deleted upstream.
+- The content columns (`Body`, `Quote`, `Question`, `Answer`, …) are the heavy ones. List
+  views should not select them.
+
+### `Notes`
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE "Notes" (
+    "RootBlogName"    TEXT,
+    "PostID"          INTEGER,
+    "NoteBlogName"    TEXT,
+    "TimeStamp"       INTEGER,
+    "Type"            TEXT,
+    "replyText"       TEXT DEFAULT '.',
+    "DatetimeCrawled" TEXT DEFAULT '2/12/26 12am',
+    "DateModified"    TEXT,
+    "DateCreated"     TEXT,
+    PRIMARY KEY("RootBlogName","PostID","TimeStamp","Type","NoteBlogName")
+);
+
+CREATE INDEX "Notes_idx_06e01ae3" ON "Notes" ("TimeStamp" DESC);
+CREATE INDEX "ix_NoteBlogName01"  ON "Notes" ("NoteBlogName");
+```
+
+One row per engagement event. `TimeStamp` is **unix seconds** — unlike every date column
+elsewhere in the schema, which are text.
+
+| `Type` | Rows | Share |
+|---|--:|--:|
+| `like` | 947,955 | 79.7% |
+| `reblog` | 224,323 | 18.9% |
+| `reply` | 15,201 | 1.3% |
+| `posted` | 2,106 | 0.2% |
+| `post_attribution` | 19 | — |
+
+At 1.19M rows this is the table that dictates how the whole database has to be queried:
+
+- **Nothing should run an unbounded `SELECT` or a bare `COUNT(*)` here.** A count scans
+  the lot on every call.
+- The only fast access paths are the primary key's leading columns (`RootBlogName`, then
+  `PostID`) and `ix_NoteBlogName01` on `NoteBlogName`. "Notes received by a blog" and
+  "notes given by a blog" are both cheap; almost nothing else is.
+- Ordering by anything but `TimeStamp` is a full sort of whatever the filters leave.
+- `replyText` is `'.'` on 1,174,706 rows — only `reply` notes carry real text.
+
+### Referential integrity
+
+There are no foreign keys, and the tables do not perfectly agree:
+
+- 4 `Posts` rows name a blog with no `Blogs` row.
+- 15 of the 31,888 distinct engagers have no `Blogs` row.
+
+So a name appearing in `Notes` or `Posts` is not a guarantee that the registry knows about
+it. Joins from those tables back to `Blogs` should tolerate a miss.
+
+---
+
+## The `'.'` placeholder convention
+
+**The crawler writes a single dot into text columns it has no value for, rather than
+`NULL`.** This is the single most surprising thing about the schema and it affects every
+consumer.
+
+| Column | `'.'` rows |
+|---|--:|
+| `Notes.replyText` | 1,174,706 |
+| `Posts.Title` | 13,144 |
+| `Posts.Body` | 172 |
+
+Any query whose output reaches a human should collapse it:
+
+```sql
+NULLIF(NULLIF(SomeColumn, '.'), '') AS SomeColumn
+```
+
+Empty string turns up too, hence the double `NULLIF`. Not every column is affected —
+`Blogs.TTFolderPath` and `Blogs.DateModified` currently have zero dot rows — but new
+columns tend to acquire them, so treat cleaning as the default for any text column
+rendered to a user.
+
+---
+
+## Supporting tables
+
+Crawler bookkeeping. Rolodex ignores all of these.
+
+| Table | Rows | What it is |
+|---|--:|---|
+| `DailyAPICount` | 133 | `(Date TEXT PK, APICount INTEGER)` — per-day API call tally against the rate limit |
+| `ApiKeyPoolState` | 2 | `(KeyName TEXT PK, RetryUntil INTEGER)` — per-key backoff; `RetryUntil` is unix seconds |
+| `ApiKeyPoolMeta` | 1 | `(Id PK CHECK (Id = 1), LastIndex)` — round-robin cursor. Singleton by check constraint |
+| `CollectRunState` | 1 | `(Id PK CHECK (Id = 1), RunCutoff, RunComplete, RunStarted, RunCompletedAt)` — resume state for an interrupted collection run. Also a singleton |
+
+---
+
+## `Blogs.IsActive` — now written by two applications
+
+`IsActive` has always been the crawler's work-selection flag. `GetBlogs` in
+`DataAccess.cs` joins on it to decide what to collect:
+
+```sql
+SELECT NoteBlogName, count(*) FROM notes
+INNER JOIN blogs ON blogs.BlogName = notes.NoteBlogName
+WHERE blogs.IsActive = @isActive AND ...
+```
+
+Nothing inside the crawler *writes* it — it is an input, set from outside.
+
+**Rolodex is now one of the things that sets it.** Removing a blog through the Rolodex UI
+runs exactly this:
+
+```sql
+UPDATE Blogs SET IsActive = 0 WHERE BlogName = ?;
+```
+
+Rolodex adds no column and changes no schema. It reuses this flag because the two meanings
+were judged to be one decision: a blog you do not want in the browsing UI is a blog you do
+not want to keep crawling. Removal therefore stops collection, and the Rolodex
+confirmation screen says so before anyone commits.
+
+- `1` (or absent/NULL) — live. Crawled, and visible in Rolodex.
+- `0` — removed. Not crawled, hidden from the Rolodex registry, dashboard counts and
+  engagement rollups.
+
+Restoring is the same `UPDATE` with a `1`. Nothing is destroyed either way: the blog's
+`Posts` and `Notes` rows are never touched, and Rolodex deliberately keeps showing them
+under its Posts and Notes pages. Removing a blog hides the blog, not what it collected.
+
+### What other tools need to know
+
+1. **Setting `IsActive = 0` now also hides the blog from Rolodex**, and setting it back to
+   `1` makes it reappear. If another tool deactivates blogs in bulk, it is also removing
+   them from the browsing UI — which may be exactly right, but it is no longer a
+   crawler-only decision.
+2. **Re-crawling a removed blog will not bring it back**, since nothing in the crawler
+   writes the flag. An `INSERT OR REPLACE` on the `Blogs` row *would*, by resetting it to
+   the column default of `1`. Prefer an `UPDATE` of the specific columns, or
+   `INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE SET` naming only the columns being refreshed.
+3. **NULL is treated as live.** The column is `INTEGER DEFAULT 1` with no `NOT NULL`, so
+   Rolodex reads it through `COALESCE(IsActive, 1)`. A NULL therefore leaves the blog
+   visible rather than stranding it outside both the registry and the removed list, where
+   no screen could reach it. Write `0` or `1`, not NULL.
+4. **Backing the feature out is a configuration change, not a migration.** Because there is
+   no Rolodex-owned column, setting `Rolodex__EnableBlogDeletion=false` is the whole of it;
+   there is nothing to drop. Any blogs already at `IsActive = 0` simply go back to being
+   ordinary inactive blogs.
+
+---
+
+## `Posts.IsActive` and `Notes.IsActive` — optional, and not in this database yet
+
+The same flag is being extended to the two content tables, with the same meaning: `0` is
+removed, anything else — including `NULL` — is live. **Neither column exists in the live
+`TL.db` as of 2026-07-29**; the DDL quoted above for `Posts` and `Notes` is complete. Like
+`Blogs.IsActive`, they are written from outside this crawler.
+
+The crawler therefore treats both as optional, and as nothing it owns:
+
+- **It never writes them.** No `INSERT` column list names `IsActive`, no `UPDATE` sets it,
+  and `MapPrefixToColumn` — the only place a column name is chosen at runtime — cannot map
+  to it. Re-crawling a removed post or note refreshes its content and leaves the flag at
+  `0`. There is no `INSERT OR REPLACE` on `Posts` or `Notes` for a default to be reset by.
+- **It filters on them only when they exist.** `HasIsActiveColumn` in `DataAccess.cs` asks
+  `PRAGMA table_info` once per table per database path and caches the answer; the filter
+  is `COALESCE(IsActive, 1) = 1`, and it is dropped entirely when the column is absent.
+  Naming a missing column is a hard SQLite error, so this is what lets one build run
+  against databases on both sides of the change. The cache lives for the process — adding
+  the columns to a live database takes effect on the next run.
+
+Every read that selects posts or notes carries the filter: `GetPosts`, `GetReplies`,
+`GetRepliesWithMissingText`, `GetRepliesWithFilledText`, `GetAllPostTextColumns`,
+`GetAllPostsForBlog`, `GetPost`, `GetPostByIdAnyBlog`, and the engagement queries that
+count or join `Notes` (`GetBlogs`, `GetBlogsAll`, `GetBlogsForLikes`). The one deliberate
+omission is the `LEFT JOIN Notes` in `GetPosts`: nothing is selected from it and it can
+neither add nor remove a row, so filtering it would buy nothing.
+
+`LegacyPostsDbImporter` is unfiltered too — it reads a foreign legacy database whose
+`Posts` table is not this schema.
+
+Two consequences worth stating plainly, both inherited from how `Blogs.IsActive` is
+handled:
+
+1. **Removal hides a row; it does not freeze it.** The write paths are keyed on a post the
+   caller already selected, so an ingest or a correction run still overwrites the content
+   of a removed post. Only selection is filtered.
+2. **`NULL` is live.** Write `0` or `1`, not `NULL`, but a `NULL` leaves the row visible
+   rather than stranding it.
+
+---
+
+## Reproducing the numbers
+
+```sql
+SELECT 'Blogs', COUNT(*) FROM Blogs
+UNION ALL SELECT 'Posts', COUNT(*) FROM Posts
+UNION ALL SELECT 'Notes', COUNT(*) FROM Notes;
+
+-- note type mix
+SELECT Type, COUNT(*) FROM Notes GROUP BY Type ORDER BY 2 DESC;
+
+-- the two date shapes in Blogs.DateAdded
+SELECT CASE WHEN DateAdded LIKE '____-__-__%' THEN 'ISO' ELSE 'US' END, COUNT(*)
+FROM Blogs GROUP BY 1;
+
+-- post IDs that are ambiguous without a blog name
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (
+    SELECT PostID FROM Posts GROUP BY PostID HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT BlogName) > 1);
+
+-- rows that reference a blog the registry does not have
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Posts p
+WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM Blogs b WHERE b.BlogName = p.BlogName);
+```
+
+Open the file read-only so an inspection can never disturb a running crawl:
+
+```bash
+sqlite3 "file:TL.db?mode=ro" ".schema"
+```

+-- verify-db-schema.sql
+--
+-- Purpose: Verify that a TL.db (e.g. a restored backup) has every column the
+--          current URLNotesGrabberCORE code expects. The app has NO startup
+--          migration: missing columns only get added when specific modes run,
+--          and a referenced-but-missing column causes a "no such column" crash.
+--
+-- How to use (DB Browser for SQLite):
+--   1. File > Open Database  ->  pick the restored backup.
+--   2. Execute SQL tab. Run SECTION 1 (it is read-only).
+--        * Zero rows from every query  = schema is fully aligned, you're done.
+--        * Rows in "MISSING COLUMNS"    = copy the run_this_to_fix text.
+--   3. If columns are missing: KEEP A COPY OF THE BACKUP FIRST, then go to
+--      SECTION 2, uncomment ONLY the ALTER lines that match the report, and run.
+--   4. Re-run SECTION 1 to confirm zero rows.
+--
+-- This script never UPDATEs/DELETEs/DROPs. In particular it deliberately does
+-- NOT replicate the likes-reset that the app's -likes migration performs
+-- (DataAccess.cs:375), so existing likes high-water marks are preserved.

+
+-- ============================================================================
+-- SECTION 1  --  VERIFICATION (read-only)
+-- ============================================================================
+
+-- Expected schema for the current code version.
+-- alter_stmt is a runnable ALTER for additively-fixable columns; for base
+-- columns it is a 'MANUAL REVIEW' note (a missing base column means the backup
+-- predates the table's creation or is damaged -- do not blindly auto-add).
