I updated the #ActivityPubBot server software to use FEP-5711, the inverse properties FEP. It is a way to declare two-way relations; if X has an `inbox` property with value Y, then Y has an `inboxOf` property with value X. It helps with navigation when you're using the ActivityPub API, and it also helps with spoofing (since both objects agree on the relationship).
The update was hard; the jsonld.js library was choking on the FEP's context document because Codeberg Pages, where FEP context documents are hosted, is unreliable.
I ended up adding a feature to the `activitystrea.ms` NodeJS library to let you pre-cache a context document, so it didn't have to go fetch it at run time. While I was under the hood, I also fixed a couple of bugs that made it hard to work with extra context documents.
The bot server is now working; I'm going to add more contexts.
