Fixes #1302.

Mock inbox activities lacked federation loaders, so follow.getActor() fell back to a loader that rejects localhost. When allowPrivateAddress is true, share an HTTP loader between received activities and federation-created contexts, with a tracer that runs context-based lookup callbacks.

Clone the outer activity to attach loaders while preserving the caller's instance. Retain its JSON-LD cache so unknown extensions survive serialization, and keep existing offline mock behavior when the option is omitted or false.

📝 Walkthrough

The mock federation adds an allowPrivateAddress option for document loading. When enabled, created contexts and received activities use a loader that permits private addresses. Tests and documentation cover localhost actor lookups and default behavior.

Changes: Private-address loading in mock federation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configure private-address loaders
packages/testing/src/mock.ts, packages/testing/package.json, packages/vocab-tools/src/class.ts
The federation options add allowPrivateAddress. When enabled, the federation configures a loader for private addresses and supplies it to created contexts. The package dependency list and the _cachedJsonLd contract comment also change.
Apply loaders to received activities
packages/testing/src/mock.ts, packages/testing/src/mock.test.ts, docs/manual/test.md, changes.d/testing/allow-private-address.md, CHANGES.md
When enabled, receiveActivity clones activities with the configured loader and delivers them to listeners. Tests and documentation cover actor lookups, embedded objects, custom loaders, and behavior when the option is disabled or omitted. The changelogs describe the change.

Explanation

Issue #1302 requires follow.getActor() to resolve a localhost actor when allowPrivateAddress: true is enabled. MockFederation creates an HTTP document loader that permits private addresses, passes it to federation contexts, and clones received activities with the loader before listener delivery. Tests cover private actor lookup through receiveActivity and createContext, while preserving offline behavior when the option is omitted or false.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes remain connected to issue #1302. The implementation and tests cover private-address loading, activity cloning, context-based lookup callbacks, and default offline behavior. Documentation, changelog entries, and runtime dependency declarations support or document the new opt-in behavior. No unrelated functional change is established by the supplied whole-pull-request summary.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 25.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 4 functions across 3 files. (2 skipped: 2 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

The failed Deno job is an existing timing flake: the cancellation test in packages/vocab/src/lookup.test.ts starts a 1-second timer that can finish during the later span-events test. That file and the lookup implementation are unchanged from the base. A focused run passed 4 tests and 18 steps, so I did not touch the test.

Mock inbox delivery did not attach federation loaders, so lazy actor
lookups rejected localhost even when tests opted in.  Configure HTTP
loaders for received activities and federation-created contexts when
allowPrivateAddress is true, using a working tracer for context-based
lookups.  Preserve offline mock behavior when false or omitted.

Clone received activities without losing their original JSON-LD or
unknown extensions, and keep embedded object identity and trust intact.
Add regression coverage and document the opt-in behavior.
