Pipeline - CORS preflights send Access-Control-Max-Age: browsers stop re-preflighting authed calls every 5 s. - `req.ua` is parsed on first read instead of on every request. - JSON `rawBody` reuses the parsed buffer instead of copying it. - `emitAndWait` returns early when nothing listens: no span or closure per unlistened driver call. - SQLBatcher sends a lone query on the next tick while fewer than 8 flushes are in flight, and waits `maxTimeInQueue` as before otherwise. Lone reads skip the 10/30 ms wait; batching under load is unchanged. Auth and permissions - Token-to-actor auth starts the user, session and app lookups together and checks them in the same order: fewer sequential Redis round trips per authed request. - get-user-app-token and check-app reuse the resolved app row. getOrCreateApp skips the re-select after its own insert and doesn't wait on the cache write for replica rows. - getOrCreateApp reads the race winner from the primary when its insert loses, so it no longer hands out a session that was never written. - whoami runs the email check and the OIDC/taskbar/team lookups in parallel; key order unchanged. - OIDC providers are memoized once every discovery succeeds, with one discovery fetch in flight per URL, and the Apple key is parsed once. - gui-token and sync-cookie use `req.actor.user` instead of re-reading the user. - listSessions batches app lookups. App icon probes run together, and the original-icon probe skips the lineage fallback. - Default-granted permissions are answered from config before the scan cache, and exploded options are deduped: one less Redis read per /drivers/call. - ACL resolves ancestors lazily (owners and full-access tokens skip them) and scans the node first, then the ancestors concurrently on a miss. Filesystem - Missing-path lineage lookups run 10 at a time: batch-upload path resolution drops from about 1.3 s to about 40 ms per 100 new files. - MySQL single-file inserts return the row built from the written values, falling back to the primary read: one less primary round trip per new file. - Batch thumbnails are stored with one UPDATE per chunk (200 rows or 4M chars), with a per-row fallback. - storage.quota.bonus listeners run concurrently next to the usage SUM, and the payload carries `userUuid`: quota checks and /df no longer serialize the listener reads. - readdir cache backfill is one pipeline instead of 3xN SETEX. - Profile reads skip the lineage fallback; the own profile is read alongside the user lookup. - Legacy /stat runs is_empty (new `hasChildrenByParentUid`), owner and thumbnail concurrently. - Downloads and the video proxy pipe through `pipeToResponse`: aborts release the storage stream at once with no extra 'close' listeners, and the video proxy no longer crashes on a mid-stream upstream error. - mkdir looks up target and parent together. - Upload completion reuses the session from the access check (status is still re-read before completing), and multipart signing reads it once. - Moving a shared file to Trash skips two lookups that always returned the entry itself. Drivers and events - Subscription resolvers run concurrently and are folded in registration order. - SubdomainDriver and WorkerDriver overlap independent lookups. - The events "anyone subscribed?" check is one Redis pipeline when the region is warm. - Handler publish overlaps the count with the size check. - Broadcast flushes peers concurrently over a keep-alive agent, so a slow peer no longer delays cross-region invalidations to the others. Sites, share and AI - Hosted sites resolve the owner first, then the app and root together. Site config loads only on 404s. The hosted-app query selects only the columns it uses and moves into AppStore. - shareFlags asks about the plan only when an item is shared by link only. - Share listings run the count, teams and plan reads alongside their page query. - Claude attachment cleanup no longer blocks the response. - New util `awaitLater` for promises started early and awaited later.

For Developers
Puter provides everything you need to build and publish web apps and games. From AI to Cloud Storage and Database to Serverless Workers, Puter has you covered. Puter also helps you get users! Once you build your app, you can publish it on our App Store to reach and monetize users.
Getting Started
💻 Local Development
git clone https://github.com/HeyPuter/puter
cd puter
npm install
npm start
→ This should launch Puter at http://puter.localhost:4100
To run this checkout with Docker, follow Building from source. Create a local docker-compose.override.yml to select the local build; keeping these settings out of docker-compose.yml avoids conflicts when pulling updates and keeps local configuration out of pull requests.
