Between 19:07 and 19:30 BST skowt.cc was unavailable.
The database migrations for the new release didn't run as part of the site's new deploy pipeline. Without them, the API crashed on asset queries, asset cards and asset URLs opened to a blank page, alongside site navigation no longer working. A separate build error in the same release meant the web app itself failed to start, so the site was effectively down for everyone during this window.
We applied the migrations by hand and shipped a fixed build at 19:25. Everything has been working normally since 19:30. Files served from pack.skowt.cc were not affected.
Migrations now run automatically before every deploy & the build has been fixed so a missing setting can no longer take the site down.
