* fix(brief): cover greeting was hardcoded "Good evening" regardless of issue time Reported: a brief viewed at 13:02 local time showed "Good evening" on the cover (slide 1) but "Good afternoon." on the digest greeting page (slide 2). Cause: `server/_shared/brief-render.js:renderCover` had the string `'Good evening'` hardcoded in the cover's mono-cased salutation slot. The digest greeting page (slide 2) renders the time-of-day-correct value from `envelope.data.digest.greeting`, which is computed by `shared/brief-filter.js:174-179` from `localHour` in the user's TZ (< 12 → morning, < 18 → afternoon, else → evening). So any brief viewed outside the literal evening showed an inconsistent pair. Fix: thread `digest.greeting` into `renderCover`; a small `coverGreeting()` helper strips the trailing period so the cover's no-punctuation mono style is preserved. On unexpected/missing values it falls back to a generic "Hello" rather than silently re-hardcoding a specific time of day. Tests: 5 regression cases in `tests/brief-magazine-render.test.mjs` cover afternoon/morning/evening parity, period stripping, and HTML escape (defense-in-depth). 60 total in that file pass. Full test:data 5921 pass. typecheck + typecheck:api + biome clean. * chore(brief): fix orphaned JSDoc on coverGreeting / renderCover Greptile flagged: the original `renderCover` JSDoc block stayed above `coverGreeting` when the helper was inserted, so the @param shape was misattributed to the wrong function and `renderCover` was left undocumented (plus the new `greeting` field was unlisted). Moved the opts-shape JSDoc to immediately above `renderCover` and added `greeting: string` to the param type. `coverGreeting` keeps its own prose comment. No runtime change.
