A Nightscout self-host on host networking with
NIGHTSCOUT_PRIVATE_ORIGINS=http://localhost:1337 worked before and must
keep working unchanged; an operator who lists an exact loopback origin
with its port has made the same deliberate decision as one who lists a
LAN origin. The never-grantable floor is now the unspecified address,
link-local and the metadata endpoint only. Loopback (127/8, ::1,
localhost) is grantable when listed exactly, still resolved and pinned
at connect time with redirects forbidden, and still refused when not
listed.
::1 is answered before the embedded-IPv4 unwrap, which read it as the
IPv4-compatible spelling of 0.0.0.1 and refused it as unspecified. The
pinned Nightscout transport test runs the real floor again. Each refused
range keeps its own test; loopback moves to the grantable-when-listed
set with a test that an unlisted loopback is still refused, and a
Nightscout grant of http://localhost:1337 is asserted to parse.

A loopback, link-local or metadata target answered
private_origin_not_approved with a message telling the user to have the
operator list it, and the parser refuses such an entry forever: a dead
end the route test even pinned. Those targets now answer
private_origin_not_grantable (catalogued, on all four routes, translated
in seven locales) with a message that says no grant can open them and
to use the relay's LAN address. Both senders carry the reason into the
outcome so the test button forwards the same code.
The malformed-entry warning printed the entry verbatim, which is where
a pasted token or userinfo sits; the parser now hands callers scheme
and host only, plus the reason in words. The Nightscout list throws a
named error with that redacted entry and reason, and the connect route
answers it as a 422 with the message instead of a bare 500, so a
self-host that listed http://localhost:1337 reads what to change.
The two settings cards translate a coded save refusal like the test
button does; the docs and the changelog name the sub-host and sibling-
port narrowing; the dispatcher floor tests assert the policy marker so
a real NXDOMAIN cannot pass for a refusal.

Lift the Nightscout allowlist parser and verdict into
src/lib/private-origin-policy.ts so a second operator grant can reuse
one grammar instead of a second parser. The Nightscout validator keeps
its exported names and behaviour; its tests are unchanged.
Add the floor both precedents lacked: an entry whose host is a literal
address in 127/8, 0/8, 169.254/16, ::, ::1 or fe80::/10 is not a grant,
and the operator-approved pinned dispatcher drops an answer in those
ranges even when the name is listed. RFC1918, CGNAT and IPv6 unique-
local stay grantable; that is what the list is for. Loopback inside the
container is the app itself, and on host networking every admin port of
the host; link-local is the cloud-metadata endpoint. No relay lives on
either.
The pinned Nightscout transport test resolves its listed name to a
loopback server on purpose, so it stubs the grantable-address predicate
for that harness only.

Egress was already correct — the client fetches through safeFetch with
requirePublicHost pinned off the user's opt-in, manual redirects and a
timeout — but the check on the value we STORE was only a side effect of
the live probe the connect route happens to run first. That makes the
guard contingent on the probe's placement rather than on the input.
Run isPublicUrl at input time, gated on the same self-hoster opt-in, so
the URL that gets encrypted onto the row is the URL that was validated.
Cover the alt-notation classes the helper knows about; each case asserts
the probe was never reached, which is what distinguishes the input-time
refusal from the fetch-time one.

- client over safeFetch: public-host pin by default, relaxed only on the
per-user private-network opt-in; redirect pinned manual + timeout
- credentials encrypted at rest on User; URL is the connect marker
- sync maps SGV entries first-write-wins on (userId,type,source,externalId)
- connect/disconnect/status routes: apiHandler + requireAuth + rate limit;
connect validates by a live test fetch with clear errors
- hourly poll-cohort job registered in the all-queues registry
- settings card with URL, token, and the private-network toggle
- i18n across all six locales
