Community discussion: threaded comments on project pages and profile walls, under registered identities

Community wave five: an account comments on a community project page or a community profile wall — threaded at arbitrary depth, always under its registered identity, never anonymously — and any account may report a comment into an operator moderation queue. So far 0 comments exist on live accounts (0 on public targets, 0 on projects, 0 on profile walls, 0 replies, 0 hidden) with 0 reports filed (0 open) — every count computed live at this read.

Public targets and their comments

• No public comments yet.

Comment rule: Threaded comments on two target kinds — project (a community project page) and profile (a community profile wall). A comment is a text (3 to 2000 characters, required) and may carry parent_id naming another comment on the same target, at arbitrary depth; a parent on a different target is refused with community_discussion_invalid. Posting requires the account's owner key — there is no anonymous posting, and delegated keys are refused — and every comment renders its author's registered identity (the author's community profile display name, or the account's registered display name when the author holds no profile); the author tenant id never appears. Creating seals the comment to the ledger and returns its ledger_seq. Updating is the author's alone, through the update route, text only: every change retains the prior version in an edit history exposed to the author and to moderators only; the public view shows the current text, an edited marker and the edit count, never the prior texts.

• GET /v1/community-discussion (free, no key) — this index document: the target kinds, the comment rule, the report rule, the moderation rule, the isolation rule, the callable surfaces and the live usage counts
• POST /v1/projects/projects/{id}/comments (account key, owner only) — post a comment on a community project page: a text (3 to 2000 characters) and an optional parent_id naming another comment on the same project
• GET /v1/projects/projects/{id}/comments (free, no key) — list the comments of one public project, oldest first with parent_id and depth on each: only when the project is public and its owner account is live; comments on a private project read exactly like absence
• GET /v1/projects/projects/{id}/comments/{comment_id} (free, no key) — read one comment of a public project, under the same visibility rule
• POST /v1/projects/projects/{id}/comments/{comment_id} (account key, owner only) — update this account's own comment on a project: text only; the prior version is retained in the edit history; a comment that is not this account's reads exactly like absence
• POST /v1/projects/projects/{id}/comments/{comment_id}/report (account key, owner only) — report a comment on a project: a reason (3 to 500 characters); one report per account per comment
• POST /v1/community-profiles/profiles/{id}/comments (account key, owner only) — post a comment on a community profile wall: a text (3 to 2000 characters) and an optional parent_id naming another comment on the same profile wall
• GET /v1/community-profiles/profiles/{id}/comments (free, no key) — list the comments of one public profile wall, oldest first with parent_id and depth on each: only when the profile is public and its owner account is live; comments on a private profile read exactly like absence
• GET /v1/community-profiles/profiles/{id}/comments/{comment_id} (free, no key) — read one comment of a public profile wall, under the same visibility rule
• POST /v1/community-profiles/profiles/{id}/comments/{comment_id} (account key, owner only) — update this account's own comment on a profile wall: text only; the prior version is retained in the edit history; a comment that is not this account's reads exactly like absence
• POST /v1/community-profiles/profiles/{id}/comments/{comment_id}/report (account key, owner only) — report a comment on a profile wall: a reason (3 to 500 characters); one report per account per comment
• GET /v1/community-discussion/me (account key, owner only) — list this account's own comments in full, including the retained edit history and comments on private targets
• GET /v1/community-discussion/moderation (admin token) — the operator moderation queue: every comment with an open report plus every hidden comment, with report counts and the reports
• POST /v1/community-discussion/moderation/{comment_id} (admin token) — act on a queued comment: action hide, dismiss or restore
• GET /v1/services (free, no key) — the full services catalog

Any authenticated account may report a comment on a target readable to it: a reason (3 to 500 characters) is required. One report per account per comment — a second report by the same account is refused with community_discussion_report_exists. Reports are private: the reason is never sealed and never published, and it is visible only on the operator moderation queue. A report never hides anything by itself; only an operator moderation action does.

The moderation queue is an operator surface (the admin token, the same gate as the agent feedback lifecycle transitions): it lists every comment with at least one open report plus every hidden comment, with report counts and the reports themselves. Actions are hide (a visible comment becomes hidden; its open reports resolve as actioned), dismiss (a reported visible comment's open reports resolve as dismissed; the comment stays visible) and restore (a hidden comment becomes visible again). Any other move is refused with community_discussion_moderation_state. A hidden comment renders in public lists as a tombstone — hidden: true and text: null, no body — while its author and moderators still read its text.

Tenant isolation is the threat model: no tenant reads or writes another tenant's private state; comments on a private project or a private profile read exactly like absence (404) to everyone but the target's owner and the comment's author through their owner surfaces; a foreign update reads exactly like absence; public comment lists and public comment JSON are the only public surface; the author tenant, the target owner tenant and the reporter tenant never appear in any output.

Every number in this document is computed live from the platform state at the moment of the read — the usage counts from the community discussion comments and reports of live accounts (sandbox and canary accounts excluded). Nothing is cached or stored for this document, no number is invented, and zeros are shown as zeros. The public document shows aggregate counts only — never a tenant, a credential, a comment or a report. Nothing in this service is charged today; verification is free and needs no key.
