lexidex: web catalog for atproto Lexicons

[bnewbold]

This is basically in "proof of concept" state.

Sooner:

• persist jetstream cursor
• crawl by-NSID-group and by-DID (not just by-NSID)
• tags: deprecated, experimental
• more NSID-level metadata (DID, updated, etc)
• links between defs and Lexicons
• deletions (and other lifecycle events?)
• record proof validation (signature, MST, etc)
• CLI helpers to hide or block by domain
• sqlite database concurrency (?)
• backfill network (using catalog helper)

Later:

• lexicon style lints
• tree grouping of NSIDs on domain page
• backwards-compatibility checks/status (eg, warn if new lexicon version broke rules)
• API (lexicons) to deal with lexicons
• "project" description (by hosting DID; bsky profile? or new Lexicon?)
• browse NSIDs by DID
• APIs for fetching cached resolution (com.atproto.* Lexicon?)

hey @bnewbold ! if I were messing around with lexidex code, is this the latest branch / the one that's up at https://lexidex.bsky.dev ?

(wanting to hack in a filter to browse record lexicons or otherwise filter by kind)

[bnewbold]

yeah, this is the branch that is deployed. it is still pretty proof-of-concept and ideally would be more complete and merged before merging.

you are welcome to take this branch and run with it, but i'm probably not going to merge any contributions, at least until this gets merged to main.

makes sense, thanks for confirming!
