New instance switch readTrail.enabled, default OFF: read logging is employee monitoring in a works council's eyes — an ordinary instance must not surveil reads. Off means no event is written ANYWHERE (no row, no stdout line, verified by test); the api announces the switch position once per boot, so an eventless trail is never ambiguous — a gap reads as "was off", never "was lost". The written purpose limitation ships as section 7 of the VS-NfD security documentation (#228): what is recorded (no content, no titles, no IPs, no fingerprinting), why (evidence for reads of marked content only — variant A is the technical anchor of the promise), who may read it (Site Admin, API-only), for how long (readTrail.retentionDays, audited pruning), and what it may NOT be used for (no performance or behaviour monitoring). The hardening guide's reference configuration turns the trail on (reference value true) and points to that text; the existing trail suites now enable the switch explicitly. Refs #225.

Dorfteich
Dorfteich is an open-source wiki system built around ponds (German: Teiche) — self-contained wiki spaces that people and teams organize freely with hierarchical labels, directories, and Obsidian-style page relations. Pages are edited in a collaborative WYSIWYG editor with live cursors and offline support.
- Project site: https://dorfteich.cloud
- Public flagship instance: https://dorfteich.online
- License: MIT
Key features
- Real-time collaboration — multiple people edit the same page simultaneously; everyone sees the other participants' cursors and input live. Offline edits merge conflict-free on reconnect (CRDT-based).
- Ponds — isolated wiki spaces with their own members, permissions, fonts, and page organization. Every registered person gets a personal pond.
- Flexible organization — hierarchical labels, free page ordering,
[[wikilinks]]with backlinks. A classic page tree is possible but never enforced. - Fine-grained permissions — roles (Site Admin, Pond Admin, Editor, Reader, Public) can be granted per pond, per label, or per page; the most specific setting wins.
- Import & export — Markdown as the primary exchange format, plus best-effort structural import from Word/OpenOffice and export to Word/OpenOffice/PDF.
- Plugins — sandboxed extensions (custom blocks, styles, page tools) installable at runtime without redeploying the instance.
- Self-hosting first — a single
docker compose upplus a guided first-run setup wizard yields a working instance. Start here:docs/self-hosting/README.md.

Development
Requirements: Node.js ≥ 22 and pnpm (npm install -g pnpm).
pnpm install # install all workspace dependencies
pnpm lint # ESLint + Prettier check across the repo
pnpm typecheck # TypeScript --noEmit in every package
pnpm test # Vitest in every package
pnpm build # build every package (dependency order)
The workspace packages live under apps/ (web, api, collab) and
packages/ (shared). Shared logic goes into packages/shared and is
imported as @dorfteich/shared — never copy code between apps.
Status
Feature-complete for a 1.0: collaboration, permissions, import/export, plugins, public REST API + MCP, backups with off-host copies and in-app restore — all shipped and release-gated. Work is tracked as issues in this repository.
