The earlier commit in this PR made every accepted repository owner's and declared maintainer's read/unmarked inboxes ordinary persistent live repository sources. Combined with unbounded per-author relay lists this drove the soak's connection growth: merely owning a repository let an author's advertised inventory imply long-lived live subscriptions. The 2026-08-19 investigation showed one bot-owned repository contributing 983 relay URLs through exactly this path. Owner/maintainer repository scope is now historical-only. The live inbox_repositories tier and its merge into derive_targets are removed entirely, and the repository-scoped overlay moves onto the existing paced, byte-bounded mailbox history workers using each author's bounded, sanitized read/unmarked inbox selection. Repository coordinates and known roots are still probed there, so a root or status stored only on a maintainer mailbox is still discovered - on the recurring history cycle instead of a persistent subscription. Correctness assumptions: inbox_roots is the pre-existing root-author live tier and is deliberately untouched, so accepted root authors keep live coverage on their own bounded inboxes. Participant mailboxes were already history-only. public_repository_mailbox_scope still empties repository scope in private mode before any overlay is built, and the per-relay independent mailbox worker behavior is unchanged. Excluded scope: no changes to instance-own-relay or repository-advertised relay coverage, no event-triggered drains, negentropy routing, or scheduling changes; those remain follow-up work. Validation: cargo fmt, cargo clippy --all-targets (clean), cargo test --lib (884 passed), cargo test --test sync proactive_sync (4 passed; the owner scenario now proves the inbox is probed through the history path, that a later root still arrives via historical refresh, and that the inbox never enters ordinary live sync).
