Referenced in repo but missing from S3 — `139` file(s)

Repo HTML/CSS points at these basenames; S3 doesn’t have them. If they’re also missing from your live CDN (run dare_404_audit.py to confirm), they’re confirmed lost — replace the reference or remove the article body section that uses it.

What to do with each bucket

3541 orphaned objects — pull a local archive of these in case you want them later, then delete from the bucket. They contribute storage cost but no functional value to the live site.
139 referenced-but-missing basenames — these are the stray missing files. Cross-check with dare_404_audit.py to see which are also missing from the live CDN. For ones that 404 on both: either replace the image (find a substitute, re-shoot, etc.) or edit the article HTML to remove the broken reference.

Migrate-out workflow

Pull a local archive (no upload yet): aws s3 sync s3://BUCKET ~/dare-s3-archive/
Delete the bucket once verified: aws s3 rb s3://BUCKET --force
If migrating away from AWS entirely, request the migration egress waiver via AWS Support BEFORE the sync.

Generated 2026-05-10 17:00:20 via dare_s3_inventory.py. Pricing snapshot (US-East-1, May 2026) is hardcoded — verify against your bucket’s region for accurate cost.
