Implement Presigned URL Generation + +**For Downloads:** + +```go +func (s *HoldService) getDownloadURL(ctx context.Context, digest string, did string) (string, error) { + path := blobPath(digest) + + // Check if blob exists + if _, err := s.driver.Stat(ctx, path); err != nil { + return "", fmt.Errorf("blob not found: %w", err) + } + + // If S3 client available, generate presigned URL + if s.s3Client != nil { + s3Key := strings.TrimPrefix(path, "/") + + req, _ := s.s3Client.GetObjectRequest(&s3.GetObjectInput{ + Bucket: aws.String(s.bucket), + Key: aws.String(s3Key), + }) + + url, err := req.Presign(15 * time.Minute) + if err != nil { + log.Printf("WARN: Presigned URL generation failed, falling back to proxy: %v", err) + return s.getProxyDownloadURL(digest, did), nil + } + + log.Printf("Generated presigned download URL for %s (expires in 15min)", digest) + return url, nil + } + + // Fallback: return proxy URL + return s.getProxyDownloadURL(digest, did), nil +} + +func (s *HoldService) getProxyDownloadURL(digest, did string) string { + return fmt.Sprintf("%s/blobs/%s?did=%s", s.config.Server.PublicURL, digest, did) +} +``` + +**For Uploads:** + +```go +func (s *HoldService) getUploadURL(ctx context.Context, digest string, size int64, did string) (string, error) { + path := blobPath(digest) + + // If S3 client available, generate presigned URL + if s.s3Client != nil { + s3Key := strings.TrimPrefix(path, "/") + + req, _ := s.s3Client.PutObjectRequest(&s3.PutObjectInput{ + Bucket: aws.String(s.bucket), + Key: aws.String(s3Key), + }) + + url, err := req.Presign(15 * time.Minute) + if err != nil { + log.Printf("WARN: Presigned URL generation failed, falling back to proxy: %v", err) + return s.getProxyUploadURL(digest, did), nil + } + + log.Printf("Generated presigned upload URL for %s (expires in 15min)", digest) + return url, nil + } + + // Fallback: return proxy URL + return s.getProxyUploadURL(digest, did), nil +} + +func (s *HoldService) getProxyUploadURL(digest, did string) string { + return fmt.Sprintf("%s/blobs/%s?did=%s", s.config.Server.PublicURL, digest, did) +} +``` + +### 3.

AppView Changes (Optional Optimization) + +**File: `pkg/storage/proxy_blob_store.go:228`** + +Currently streams to hold service proxy URL.
