Four fixes, all from looking at the real board.
"and N more" now links to a page showing them all. Telling someone 35 more PCs
are silent and leaving them to find the list is worse than not saying it. Each
card names its own destination and a test checks it against the routes that
actually exist - a viewall pointing at a route nobody wrote is the same rot the
endpoint check already guards, just failing in the browser instead of the API.
PRINTER ROWS ESCAPED THE CARD. A flex child will not shrink below its content
width unless told to, so text-overflow never engaged and a row carrying three
cartridge readings plus a location simply ran past the border. min-width:0 on
the row parts is what enables the ellipsis; meta shrinks first because it
matters least, and the card clips as a backstop.
THE STAT TILES WERE INCOHERENT. Two counted asset TYPES, two counted asset
STATUSES, and nothing said which - with the status one labelled "Active", which
reads as "not deleted" but meant status = In Use across every type. Each tile
now counts one thing and its label says so.
PCs GONE SILENT IS NARROWER, and better for it. A PC that never reported at all
is usually a hand-made or imported record rather than a bay that broke, and a
PC that is not In Use is silent ON PURPOSE - that is the status doing its job.
Both were burying the real signal: a machine that was working, is not now, and
nobody has marked as anything else.
Wave one complete. Three cards, no new data and no migrations.
Printer supplies reuses the existing low-supplies query and its five-minute
cache; a Zabbix round-trip per printer on every dashboard load would make this
the slowest page in the app. One row per printer listing every depleted
cartridge, criticals first - a row per cartridge would report one printer three
times and read as three problems, and showing only the worst class would hide a
low cartridge behind a critical one on the same machine when whoever walks out
there wants to carry both.
While there: the low-supplies REPORT itself was including healthy cartridges. A
printer with one empty black and three full colour ones listed all four, so the
reader had to find the problem inside the row. It now lists only what needs
replacing, and the test that asserted the old behaviour now asserts the new.
Expiring warranties keeps already-expired entries on the list rather than
dropping them the day they lapse, which is how they get missed. Horizon is
warranty_expiringdays, default 90, because that suits a site budgeting
quarterly and nobody else.
Mis-numbered bays promotes check-shared-machines out of a CLI command nobody
will remember to run - it found seven bays that had been wrong for weeks. It
reports only numbers with NO child assets, so part markers legitimately sharing
an operation stay silent: that distinction is the whole card, and without it it
would list correct data beside faults and be ignored.
Printers also loses its dead component-named widget; notifications, network and
machines still have theirs.
Three defects, all found on printedparts_label_prefix, all one root cause:
nothing in the framework knew that setting existed.
The parts kiosk runs logged out. An unauthenticated read of a setting is
limited to an allowlist, the key was not on it, so the kiosk got a 404 and
fell back to no prefix. An admin previewing the same page while logged in saw
the prefix, which is why it looked like it worked.
The same setting also looked like it would not save. The row did not exist on
a site that installed the plugin before the setting was added, so the first
save created it - under the placeholder category the settings API uses for
keys it does not recognise, where the plugin's settings page, which lists by
category, could no longer see it. The value was in the database the whole
time.
And the row was missing in the first place because seeding ran from
on_install / on_enable, which fire only on a state transition. Neither runs
again on an upgrade, so a setting added in a later plugin version never
reached a site that installed an earlier one. The comment claiming enable ran
every upgrade cycle was simply wrong.
A plugin now declares the settings it owns in get_settings_defaults(): key,
default, type, category, description, and whether a logged-out page may read
it. The framework seeds declared keys at install, at enable, and on every
flask plugin upgrade-all; files a first-time write under the declared
category; re-homes any row left in the placeholder category, value untouched;
and answers an anonymous read for keys marked public. Core carries no list of
any plugin's keys.
Contract 0.16.0 (additive optional hook). printedparts and printers move to
the hook and floor their core_version at 0.16.0. The dev database had two rows
in the misfiled state (printedparts_alert_email, employee_db_host); the first
repairs itself on the next upgrade pass.
Poll Zabbix for toner levels on a schedule and email/webhook on a downward
crossing. Warning fires at or below the warning threshold (default 5%),
critical at the critical threshold (default 0%); both thresholds are settings.
State lives in printersupplyalerts so an alert fires once per crossing and
re-arms after a refill.
Recipients mirror the printedparts pattern: plugin-scoped shopdb users +
roles + free-text emails (falling back to the site alert_recipients), and a
chosen support team's webhook (falling back to the site alert_webhook_url).
- PrinterSupplyAlert model + migration printers0002supplyalerts
- alerttier(remaining, warning, critical) + check_supplies poller
- flask printers check-toner-alerts CLI (run via scheduled task/cron)
- printers alert settings + Low-Toner Alerts settings page
- 7 tests: tier boundaries, once-per-crossing + re-arm, toner-only scope,
custom thresholds, support-team webhook routing
Plugins declare their own RBAC permissions instead of core accumulating
them: 36 permissions moved out of the core catalog into the 9 owning
plugins (core keeps the 19 its own blueprints enforce). The catalog is
resolved dynamically (core + enabled plugins) and feeds the roles grid,
the token scope picker and ceiling, and flask seed permissions;
installing or enabling a plugin seeds its permissions automatically. A
disabled plugin drops out of the assignable catalog while existing role
links keep working. New plugins - bundled or external - now bring their
permissions with zero core edits.
781 tests pass; live-verified with a machines.edit-scoped token.

Framework:
- Per-plugin Alembic migration chains (ADR-008): every bundled plugin
carries its own chain with a stamp-only anchor at the ownership cutover;
new plugin schema lands in plugins/<name>/migrations/, never the core
chain. Deploys add flask plugin upgrade-all. Fixed a latent bug in the
shared alembic template (engine URL resolution) and taught the metadata
filter to include FK-referenced core tables.
- Frontend plugin route gating (ADR-009): plugin routes carry meta.plugin;
a disabled plugin's pages redirect to the dashboard via a cached,
fail-open check against the new public GET /api/plugins/enabled.
- get_reports() plugin hook (contract 0.5.0 -> 0.6.0): plugins contribute
report cards; warranty and toner cards moved off the hardcoded list.
Reports:
- Hub grouped by category with search; inline reports render at the top,
are URL-backed (?report=id, back-button and deep links work), expose
their server-side filter params as controls, and export CSV. Warranty
and Toner pages gained CSV export.
- Deleted the dead legacy Warranty Status report (always-zero buckets
from a retired column).
Theming and fonts:
- Inter (variable) bundled locally via @fontsource, replacing the Google
Fonts Roboto import - air-gapped installs now render correctly; tables
use tabular numerals.
- Optional brand_primary_dark_color, brand_accent_color,
brand_sidebar_color settings applied to CSS vars at bootstrap.
USB frontend repair (views were reading a dead legacy shape):
- List/detail/form and the employee profile USB panels remapped to the
real API shape (device_id/device_desc/checkinoutlog); employee panels
now use /usb/checkouts endpoints; external-mode /usb/checkouts/active
honors the badge filter; dead client methods pruned.
Also: warranties list page no longer requires login (matches app
convention); collector doc rewritten with a GE-Enforce integration guide
and paste-ready PowerShell reporter; ADR index and CHANGELOG updated.
Verified: 323 tests pass, naming/style green, frontend builds, plugin
migration dry-run green on scratch MySQL.

Feature work from the 2026-07 session:
Settings IA
- Replace the flat 27-card settings hub with a persistent two-pane shell
(SettingsLayout.vue): grouped, searchable left rail + content pane.
- Nest all settings/* routes under the shell via router post-processing;
shared nav catalog in settingsNav.js. Group by asset class (PCs, Printers,
Equipment, Network) so per-type settings stop scattering.
Custom fields (core)
- customfields + customfieldvalues tables (migration 7d14), CRUD API at
/api/customfields, per-asset value get/save.
- Settings management page + reusable CustomFieldsSection (detail) and
CustomFieldsInputs (form) wired into all four asset types.
Warranty (new plugin)
- plugins/warranty: warranties + warrantyassets (migration 7d15), derived
coverage status, provider abstraction (manual now; Dell/Lenovo/HP stubs).
- API CRUD + per-asset panel + report buckets; WarrantyPanel on all four
detail pages; Warranties management page; Warranty report + Reports card.
- Seed warranty.* permissions.
Printer drivers
- printerdrivers table (migration 7d13) linked to printer models; drivers now
surface on the matching printer's detail page.
Other
- PCDetail rebalanced (Network + Status + Warranty + custom fields on the right).
- Rename PCs list "Features" column to "Remote Access"; fix badge hover underline.
- Drop equipment islocationonly field.
- Centralize asset-type label/route maps into utils/assetTypes.js.

Plugins were reaching into internal core paths (shopdb.core.models.*,
shopdb.extensions, shopdb.utils.*), coupling them to core's file layout and
violating the ADR-001 contract. Consolidate onto one versioned surface.
- shopdb.api: expand from 2 helpers to the full plugin import surface -
db, cache; BaseModel, AuditMixin; core models (Asset, AssetType,
AssetStatus, Vendor, Model, Communication, CommunicationType, Location,
Setting, AuditLog, Application, AppVersion, OperatingSystem); response +
pagination helpers; employee_connection. Documented in PLUGIN-HOOKS.md.
- Migrate all 22 plugin source files to import only from shopdb.api (plus
shopdb.plugins.base for the ABC).
- Drop the printers plugin's legacy MachineType dependency: remove
_ensure_legacy_machine_types and the seed_supplies machinetypeid lookup
(Model.machinetypeid is nullable; printers carry type via PrinterType).
- Guard test test_plugins_only_import_contract_surface scans plugin source
and fails on any core import outside shopdb.api / shopdb.plugins.base.
- Scaffold templates updated so generated plugins are contract-pure.
- Bump __contract_version__ 0.2.0 -> 0.3.0 (additive surface expansion;
manifests pin <1.0.0 so they still satisfy).
145 tests pass, naming/style green, app factory boots all 6 plugins.

The asset/computer model is now the single source of truth. Remove the Machine
instance layer end to end:
- Delete models Machine, MachineStatus, PCType, MachineRelationship,
InstalledApp, PrinterData; keep MachineType (models.machinetypeid still
references it).
- Delete the /api/machines, /api/statuses, /api/pctypes blueprints and the
legacy /api/printers/legacy (PrinterData) blueprint.
- Drop the deprecated communications.machineid column and its FK.
- Migration 7c01 drops tables machines, machinestatuses, pctypes,
machinerelationships, installedapps, printerdata (idempotent).
- Fix remaining readers (applications install counts) to ComputerInstalledApp.
- Frontend: remove dead machinesApi/statusesApi/pctypesApi wrappers; repoint
the PC Types settings page at computer types.
143 tests pass; all asset/computer/dashboard/report/collector endpoints 200.
