The page had grown to roughly ten cards in one flow, and three more surfaces
were wanted on it: installed software, live metrics, and the service controls.
Stacking those into the same column would have buried what the page is for.
Tabs were mocked and rejected on 2026-08-28, on the grounds that the strip
duplicated the sidebar and cost hero space. That objection is answered by
where the strip sits: the hero and the triage band stay above it and never
move, so "is this machine OK" is still answered without a click, and the strip
partitions the detail underneath rather than navigating anywhere.
WHY A PANEL DECLARES ITS OWN GROUP
Most cards on a detail page are not the page's. They arrive through the
ADR-010 get_asset_panels hook, so a page that sorted panels into tabs by
knowing their ids would defeat the hook it is built on. Panels now carry an
optional group instead, and the page only knows the five group names.
Resolution happens server-side, in the asset-panels route, so that an absent
or misspelled group becomes 'details' before the client ever sees it. The
client renders known groups only; an unrecognised value that survived to it
would be a panel that exists and is displayed nowhere. Contract 0.28.0 ->
0.29.0, additive - every existing plugin keeps working untouched, and the
endpoints status panel is deliberately left ungrouped so the default path is
exercised by a shipped plugin and not only by tests.
A tab is offered only when something fills it. An empty tab reads as broken
rather than as "this site does not collect that", so the strip is built from
the groups that actually returned data, and a tab that disappears on refetch
falls back to Details rather than leaving the page blank.
AssetDetailTabs is core, not a PCDetail component: machines, printers,
network devices and measuring tools all have the same shape, and the shared
asset-detail shell they need starts here.
Scope: product
There is no token denylist in this product, so the JWT user loader is
the only place a deactivated account can be stopped, and it did a bare
lookup by id. Somebody deactivated at 09:00 kept a working access token
until it expired, and a refresh token that minted fresh ones for thirty
days.
/api/auth/refresh and the API-token path already checked isactive. This
makes the loader consistent with them rather than inventing policy.
Scope: product
(cherry picked from commit 9c1848fc61)
Commit 0c2b816 added Script to shopdb.api so a plugin can read the ShopDB-hosted script library that backs run_script delivery, but left __contract_version__ at 0.26.0. This bumps it to 0.27.0 so a plugin can pin core_version against the widened surface. Additive name, minor bump, matching the existing convention. The docs/PLUGIN-HOOKS wiki page (not tracked in-repo) still needs the Script entry.
AppVersion gains sha256 and silentargs so the endpoint update_app push can pin exact installer bytes and carry per-version silent switches; Application gains installersha256 for the app-level install source. New ShopDB-hosted script library (Script model plus scripts API) backs run_script delivery, with the body fetched by digest on push rather than pre-staged or sent over the command wire. Two idempotent migrations with real downgrades. Script added to the shopdb.api contract surface for plugin use.
The board was one card per source in a fixed grid, and both halves of that hurt.
Every source got the same small box whatever it had to say. Warranties showed 5
of 50 behind "and 45 more"; the crash card truncated at 4; a one-row card sat
beside a four-row card and left a hole. Nothing had room, which is the complaint
that started this: not enough space to relay the data.
And a box per source flattened priority. An enforcement failure and a warranty
notice looked equally urgent because each owned a card, while the largest type
on the page belonged to counts that are true every day and need nobody.
WHAT THE PAGE IS NOW
A severity rollup, one worst-first queue of everything that needs a person, and
a row of context beneath it.
The queue merges every critical and warning row and sorts them, so reading order
is work order. It is full width, which is where the room came from. Rows are
capped per source, because fifty expiring warranties must not bury two crashed
PCs, and what did not fit is named per source with a link to it - a bare "and 45
more" that leads nowhere is worse than saying nothing.
The rollup counts ROWS, not cards, and filters the board in place rather than
navigating away, so the counts and the rows cannot disagree.
Severity, position and permission were already declared per card and already
sorted on. The old layout threw that away; this only stops it.
WHAT WENT, AND WHY IT SHOULD NOT COME BACK
Four asset tiles plus an "All assets" tile: machines + PCs + printers + network
IS all assets, so the page showed a total beside its own addends at the same
weight. It is now a line under a rule, where a total belongs.
The printer strip. It carried the printer count a third time - the tile row and
"Total Printers" were already the same number - and "Online" equalled total, so
three tiles held one fact. A genuinely low cartridge already reaches the queue
through the printers-supplies card, which is the moment anyone wants it.
Three cards whose whole job was to display 0.
Recent Devices: the largest block on the page, listing five machines that were
all "In Use" with business unit "TBD". Recency is not a reason to look at
something.
CONTRACT 0.26.0: 'shortname'
Cards may declare a short label for their rows in the merged queue. Their
'title' is written as a heading - "Endpoints with crashes or shutdowns" - and as
a row badge it ran wider than the hostname it qualified, putting the badge
rather than the asset at the start of every line. CSS-truncating the title was
tried first and was worse: four consecutive rows reading "ENDPOINTS WITH CR..."
say nothing at all. Optional and defaults to the title, so a plugin that does
not declare one is unaffected. Additive field, minor bump.
ALSO: "silent 1 days"
A meta suffix is written for the plural case and the card cannot know the value.
One row saying it was a shrug; the merged queue puts every quiet endpoint on one
screen, so it said it five times in a column and read as broken. Now singularised
at exactly 1, on the first word, keeping what follows: "1 event (48h)", "silent 1
day". The test asserting ' ms' survives is what caught the first version turning
it into ' m'.
DashboardRow.vue is extracted because the queue and the context panels render
the same row, and the map tooltip, link fallbacks and chips are too easy to get
subtly different in a second copy.
Verified on screen against live data. Full suite 2178 passed, frontend 301.
Twelve endpoints routes shared one permission, which made a reasonable policy
impossible to express. A site that wants signed-out visitors to see live status
on a PC page had to hand them the entire fleet - including every logged-in
username on the floor - because the per-asset panels and the fleet-wide list
were gated on the same string.
endpoints.fleet now gates the list and the three dashboard routes.
endpoints.view keeps the per-asset reads: status, services, processes,
interfaces, events, command history.
The name is load-bearing. guest_grantable_permissions() opens any '.view' or
'.read' permission to the guest role, so calling this one 'endpoints.fleet'
rather than 'endpoints.fleetview' is what keeps the roster off the public
surface while per-asset telemetry stays grantable. Verified both ways.
Also: the services panel emitted Start/Stop row actions to every reader,
because row_actions_for() never consulted the caller. Clicking was always
refused server-side, so nothing was exploitable, but showing a read-only viewer
controls over a shop-floor PC is the wrong signal - and it stops being cosmetic
the moment a site grants that panel to guests.
That needed a contract addition rather than a local check: caller_holds() on
shopdb.api answers whether THIS caller holds a permission without refusing the
request, which is the complement to require_permission for a surface that
serves everyone but should only offer what the caller can act on. Guests are
included, since a signed-out visitor holds whatever the guest role was granted.
Reaching into shopdb.utils.authz instead would repeat the ADR-002 violation the
contract gate caught earlier in this branch. Contract 0.24.0 -> 0.25.0.
DEPLOYMENT: endpoints.fleet is a new permission. Run 'flask seed permissions'
and grant it to the roles that should keep seeing the Fleet page. Until then
that page is admin-only, since admins bypass every check - a safe direction,
but not an automatic one.
Full suite 2124 passed, naming and contract gates green, map and spec
regenerated.
An endpoint reported telemetry correctly for hours while the Fleet page showed
"No endpoints found". The PC detail page displayed its panels the whole time, so
ingest was plainly working; only the list was empty.
The list route was the one route in 331 paths registered with a trailing slash:
@endpoints_bp.route('/', methods=['GET']) -> /api/endpoints/
The browser client calls it without one, so Flask answered a 308 redirect to an
ABSOLUTE url. On dev that resolves and nobody notices. Behind the IIS subpath it
cannot: with no ProxyFix, Werkzeug builds that Location from the scheme and host
it believes it has, so it emitted http:// and dropped the /shopdb prefix. A
browser will not follow an https page to http, the request failed, and the
page's catch block rendered the empty state.
Every other route in the plugin worked throughout, because none of them carries
a trailing slash - the detail panels call /endpoints/asset/<id>/status and were
never redirected. Detail works, list empty is the signature of this bug.
Registered as '' now, so the rule is /api/endpoints. That is what
CONTRIBUTING.md's API section spells and what every other list route in the
product already did. The inventory and the generated spec are updated to match.
Also here:
- tests/test_core/test_no_redirecting_routes.py fails the build if any /api
rule is registered with a trailing slash and strict slashes. Verified by
planting the violation: it named the offending route, then passed once
reverted. It takes the shared app fixture rather than building its own
application - doing that rebinds SQLAlchemy and leaves the NEXT module
without tables, which showed up as three unrelated "no such table: settings"
failures visible only in a full run.
- The Fleet page now renders "Could not load endpoints (HTTP nnn). This is a
failed request, not an empty fleet." A list that reports a 403 and an empty
fleet identically is what made this take as long as it did.
- TRUSTED_PROXY_COUNT (default 0) applies ProxyFix when set. Off by default on
purpose: it makes X-Forwarded-* trusted, and a client can send those itself,
while the login rate limit and account lockout are keyed on the client
address. Set it to 1 on an instance behind IIS.
Full suite 2124 passed, vitest 260 passed, naming and docs gates green.
Ports the corporate-GitHub wilm branch onto main, keeping the two branches
separate. Thirteen upstream commits arrive with their authorship intact; the
review fixes and the portability work below are on top.
What arrives:
endpoints plugin - a ShopDB agent reporting endpoint state, telemetry,
services and interfaces, with a command channel the agent
long-polls. Ingest stays on the generic collector route
(ADR-006); the agent key is a UI-managed single-scope
token whose revocation is an instant kill switch.
computers policies - Configuration and Business Policies (RMM-style), scope
trees validated at write time, actions checked against
the endpoints command allowlist. Feature-gated: every
route 404s while the setting is off, so enabling it can
never half-expose the surface.
asset CSV import - templates, a collector script carrying the site path, and
a validate-then-commit import. A plugin can own a virtual
column plus a post-write row hook, which is how a PC's
machine number becomes a controls link without a
hand-built relationships sheet.
agent/ - the Windows agent and its installer.
Contract 0.21.0 -> 0.24.0, additive throughout: register_import_hook (0.22),
mint/list/revoke_service_token (0.23), collector_authorized (0.24). The stability
table had no rows for any of them and now does.
MySQL 5.6 portability. The branch stored three policy columns as sa.JSON, the
only JSON columns in the product, and 5.6 has no JSON type: the migration failed
with a bare syntax error near the word JSON. They are TEXT now, through a
JSONText type decorator, so all seventeen call sites still read and write dicts.
The convention elsewhere is already TEXT (guides.blocksjson,
geenforce.manifestjson).
Review fixes carried on top:
- six policy GETs were jwt_required(optional=True), which authenticates a
caller without checking anything; they require computers.view now, and six
redundant jwt_required decorators are gone
- the agent installer took a default BaseUrl and CollectorKey, so a mistyped
run silently pointed an endpoint at the wrong instance; both are mandatory
and a non-https BaseUrl throws unless -AllowInsecureHttp is passed
- a committing CSV import wrote no audit row
Documentation: the 34 new routes are described in docs/api-inventory.json, which
is hand-maintained on purpose, and the generated spec now covers 331 paths and
477 operations across 22 surfaces. DEVELOPMENT-SETUP's 1071 troubleshooting row
said "use MySQL 8 for dev" and now gives the actual fix, including the trap that
5.6 downgrades ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC to Compact with a warning instead of an error.
Full suite 2123 passed, vitest 260 passed, all seventeen plugin chains migrate
clean on MySQL 5.6 and the naming, docs, parity and read-surface gates are green.
Whether somebody with no account may see something was being answered one
feature at a time: a securesend_allow_guests setting, an enable flag per kiosk,
and very nearly a third for guides - each with its own settings page, its own
vocabulary and its own hand-written branch inside a route. Every one of them
answered a permissions question, and this app already administers permissions
per role.
So a caller with no token is not nobody: they hold the seeded `guest` role.
require_permission consults it when there is no identity, which is the entire
mechanism. The role is seeded holding NOTHING, so an upgrade opens no door; a
site opens one by ticking a box in the same grid it uses for every other role,
and closes it the same way. Revocation is read on every request rather than
cached, because taking guest access away is what somebody does the moment they
realise what they opened, and it has to bite immediately.
The redundant @jwt_required() above require_permission is gone from 184 routes.
It was belt-and-braces before; now it is actively wrong, because it refuses a
request with no token before the permission check can have an opinion, so a
grant would appear to do nothing.
What a guest may hold is bounded. Any .view or .read permission is grantable.
A WRITE has to be blessed by whoever owns it, through the new
get_guest_grantable_permissions hook (contract 0.21.0), and Secure Send is the
only case that exists: sending a password to a vendor is the one write this
product means to offer somebody who never signs in. Everything else is refused
by the API and greyed out in the grid rather than warned about - a checkbox
that quietly makes deleting an asset anonymous is not a warning anybody reads
twice. A guest write records no creator: the trail says when and from where,
never who, and that is the reason for the bar.
GE-Enforce and Slides gained read permissions so they can be opened to guests
without handing out the manage right. Their read routes accept either through
require_any_permission, so nothing an existing manager could reach has moved.
The navigation endpoint now returns only what the caller can actually reach.
Without that a signed-out visitor gets a sidebar of the whole app where every
link bounces off the login page, which reads as a broken site rather than as a
closed door. A nav item may name several permissions; holding any one is
enough, which is what GE-Enforce and Slides need now that a viewer and a
manager hold different strings.
Two things this found on the way: current_user is a LocalProxy, so
`current_user is None` is False for a request with nobody behind it - harmless
under a required JWT, an AttributeError the moment verification became
optional. And an image pasted into a guide before its first save was never
attached to it, so it was visible to editors and invisible to every reader;
saving now attaches it, and `flask guides fix-images` repairs what is stored.
The guides guest setting written earlier today is gone. Granting guides.view to
the guest role replaces it, which is the point.
The audit log is append-only and nothing ever removed a row, so it grows for as
long as a site runs. This site reached tens of thousands of pages, which is past
the point of being useful: nobody pages through that to find anything.
Retention is OPT-IN and the default keeps everything. An upgrade that silently
started deleting a site's audit history would be indefensible, so
audit_retentiondays defaults to 0 and nothing is removed until somebody sets a
number. The Site & Facility card shows the log's size and exactly how many
entries a purge would delete BEFORE anything is pressed.
Deleting happens in committed batches. That is not an optimisation: one DELETE
over a million rows builds a single enormous transaction and holds locks across
the table while it runs, which on this server means blocking the collectors
posting inventory. The API caps its batch count so the request cannot outlive a
proxy timeout, and a run that stops early reports how much is left rather than
claiming it finished - a purge reporting success over 900k remaining rows would
be the same silent half-failure this codebase keeps getting bitten by.
`flask audit stats` and `flask audit purge` for the server, the latter reporting
by default and deleting only with --apply, with no batch cap because it is not
behind a proxy and a purge that stops halfway leaves the operator guessing.
audit.purge is a separate permission from audit.view. Reading the log and
destroying it are different acts, and plenty of people need only the first.
Chunking selects a page of ids and deletes those rather than using
DELETE ... LIMIT, which is MySQL-only while the suite runs on SQLite.
The legacy data carried space-stripped twins: 'DellInc.' beside 'Dell Inc.',
'Windows10' beside 'Windows 10', 'OptiPlex7080' beside 'OptiPlex 7080'. They
rode into the shipped seed catalog, so every site that ran `seed catalog`
inherited them, and they stay invisible until somebody opens a vendor picker
and finds the same company listed twice.
Not a code fault. The collector strips only leading and trailing whitespace,
matches with ilike, and treats the OS list as lookup-only, so it can neither
have created these nor be creating more. They arrived with the classic-ASP
import, which holds the same three pairs today.
`flask catalog dedupe` merges only whitespace-and-punctuation twins, because
those are one name typed two ways. 'Dell' and 'Dell Inc.' normalise apart and
are left alone: that is a naming choice and only a person can make it. The
surviving row is the most referenced, tie-broken toward the spaced spelling,
which is the one somebody pressed the space bar for.
`flask catalog merge` makes that judgment call explicitly, and refuses to
invent a target that does not exist, so a typo cannot move rows into a new
vendor. `flask catalog rename` handles the case neither can reach: a stripped
name with NO twin, where there is nothing to merge into.
All three report and change nothing unless --apply is passed, and dedupe is
idempotent so it is safe in a deploy script.
References are discovered from the LIVE schema rather than listed in code.
There are 15 foreign keys into these three tables across 7 tables, and
machines.controllervendorid and printerdrivers.modelnumberid are not ones
anybody would enumerate by hand. Every reference is repointed before the row
is deleted, so nothing is orphaned, and a plugin adding a table is covered
without editing this command.
Printers become a property of the bay, and the container stops throwing away the
site's own files every time it is updated.
Printer assignment is now end to end. The assignment belongs to the MACHINE and
reaches whichever PC controls it, so a reimaged or swapped bay comes back with
its printers and nothing had to be saved off the old box. One picker serves both
forms rather than two implementations of the same override. A relationship type
can declare itself singular, so setting a second default REPLACES the first
instead of silently losing to the older row. Alongside the assigned half there is
now an observed half: a bay reports what it actually has, kept strictly apart
from what it is told to have, because a drifted bay's own state becoming its
desired state would make every configuration error permanent. The client script
corrects a drifted queue in place rather than only installing a missing one, and
a driver rollout can be spread across waves so 300 bays do not pull 30 GB through
one five-minute window.
DOCKER SITES SHOULD READ THIS PARAGRAPH. The compose stack never persisted the
instance directory, so `docker compose build api && up -d api` - the update path
the docs themselves gave - discarded plugins.json and every upload with it. It is
a volume now, and DEPLOY.md carries the one-time rescue for a stack that predates
it. The image also could not be built at all: the frontend stage never copied the
plugin staging script its own prebuild hook runs, so every build since that
script landed failed. Air-gapped sites need a fresh offline bundle, because the
stack moves to MySQL 8.4 LTS and an existing tarball carries only the 8.0 image.
The Windows installer already bundled MySQL 8.4, so this closes a gap between the
two halves rather than moving anyone.
Adds a topology migration guide: IIS to Docker, Docker to a new host, and back.
The data moves cleanly; what costs time is that the server address is baked into
GE-Enforce manifests, the generated collector script, the printer client scripts
and printed QR codes.
1736 tests green. Contract stays at 0.20.0 - nothing under shopdb/api changed.
The last of the buildings-and-levels bugs, and the shop-floor clients brought
into the product.
Anyone on 0.11.0 through 0.11.2 should take this. Every hover mini-map in the
product reported "this asset has a position but no level" - the levelid prop
added in 0.11.0 was passed by none of its seven call sites - and the map PDF
printed markers from every floor onto one sheet, which nobody can correct once it
is carried onto the floor. The legacy import loader, still to run against
production, created markers with no level at all.
The gate that should have caught all three asked whether a FILE mentions levelid
rather than whether each position does. It now checks per occurrence.
Also: printers can be assigned to a MACHINE and reach whichever PC controls it,
so a reimaged bay reinstalls its own printers with nothing saved off the old PC;
printerdrivers can name a vendor, so two rows cover 41 of 44 printers instead of
twenty-one near-duplicates; and the collector reporter and EventSaver now live in
the repository with no site baked into either, the reporter generated per site on
request.
The client scripts were validated on Windows 11 against a live ShopDB, not only
by the suite: a bay with no rows of its own created both queues from its
machine's assignment, bound them to the right universal drivers, and set the
per-user default.
The version and the changelog are the release; the detail is in the entry.
A site adopting ShopDB had to be handed two files and told what to edit in them.
Both are now the product's, and one of them the server writes for you.
GET /api/computers/client-script (admin) returns Report-AssetToShopDB.ps1 with
this site's values already in it: site_base_url becomes the -ApiUrl default and
the new computers_routableranges setting becomes -AllowedRanges. Only the
PARAMETER DEFAULTS are substituted - the copy in plugins/computers/client/ stays
runnable, so there is no second version to drift from the first - and everything
stamped stays overridable by argument or registry, because a bay may need to
differ from its site. Settings > Computers > Asset reporter edits the ranges,
downloads the script and shows its SHA-256.
The collector key is deliberately not stamped in, and a test fails if it ever
is. That file lands on every shop-floor PC, and a token spread across hundreds
of bays cannot be rotated quietly; it stays in the registry, provisioned per
ADOPTING-AT-ANOTHER-SITE.md.
The routable ranges are the last thing that was hardcoded in that script. They
are now a setting, so West Jefferson's two CIDRs move out of source code and
into that site's own configuration - which is what ADR-015 asks for - and a site
that sets nothing still works, because the script falls back to the NIC carrying
the default route.
EventSaver joins it in plugins/slides/client/, source only: EventSaver.cs and
EventSaver.ini, no compiled .scr - a binary is a release asset, like the
installer exe. The share path that was compiled into Config.Folder is gone. It
used to be the fallback when the ini was missing, which silently pointed a new
site at the reference site's file server; it is now empty, and failing visibly
beats displaying another site's slides. Verified by compiling the edited source
in the Windows VM with the in-box csc.exe: 15,872 bytes, exit 0.
Also: the DSC example in the adoption guide gains a CollectorRanges resource and
stops passing -ApiUrl to a script that already reads BaseUrl from the registry
the same example writes, and the guide points at the generated download instead
of hand-editing a URL.
The contract test caught the endpoint importing shopdb directly for the version
string, which ADR-002 forbids a plugin from doing. The product and contract
versions are in app.config now, which a plugin reads through current_app.
Adds docs/proposals/printer-assignment.md: assign printers to a PC in ShopDB and
let the bay install them, with what the fleet data says about drivers - HP and
Xerox cover 41 of 44 printers with universal drivers, there are no Brother
printers at all despite 208 files of Brother inkjet drivers in the installer,
and printerdrivers holds one row pointing at a per-model folder instead of a
universal driver.
Bug fixes for the buildings-and-levels work in 0.11.0, every one of them found by
using the feature rather than by the suite.
Anyone running 0.11.0 or 0.11.1 with more than one level should take this
release: the map drew markers from every level on whichever floor plan happened
to be showing, which is the failure ADR-017 exists to prevent, and it was in the
one component that draws the map. The viewer also had no way to choose a level,
and the editor never accepted a click at all - its handler was bound only if the
map was already a picker at mount, and the editor opens with nothing selected.
Also: a level's native size could not be set (the settings page had no height
field), the same search could return different rows because fourteen searchers
truncated without an ORDER BY, and both map pages carried a scrollbar from
subtracting the wrong page chrome from the viewport height.
No schema change, and the plugin contract stays at 0.20.0.
The version and the changelog are the release; the detail is in the entry.
A patch release. The pagination-cap fixes, and the documentation that missed the
0.11.0 installer by a few minutes.
docs/UPGRADE.md is one of the documents the Windows installer puts on the server,
and its buildings-and-levels section was committed after 0.11.0 was tagged. So
0.11.0 shipped the page an operator reads WHILE upgrading without the guidance
about that upgrade - which matters most on an air-gapped box, where there is no
other way to reach it. The installer now also ships FLOOR-MAP.md for the same
reason the Windows runbooks ship.
No application code changed on the server side and the plugin contract stays at
0.20.0.
The version and the changelog are the release; the detail is in the entry.
The floor map became a set of drawings instead of one picture, and search now
reaches what the forms have been collecting all along.
A site can hold more than one building and a building more than one level, and
every map position records which drawing its coordinates belong to. An existing
single-map site upgrades into one building and one default level carrying the
blueprint it already had, and nothing moves on screen. Landmark recalibration
moves a level's markers onto a redrawn plan, solved per axis from the landmarks
and never from the image dimensions, dry run by default, snapshotted before it
applies.
Two identifiers the UI collects were findable in almost no way and two plugins'
records in no way at all: gaugelabreference matched only measuring tools,
maintenancereference matched nothing anywhere, and USB devices and printed items
were absent from search entirely because neither is an asset. All four are
searchable now, from the global bar and from every list's own search box.
Contract 0.20.0 is additive: a plugin that writes a map position must write its
level with it.
The version and the changelog are the release; the detail is in the entry.
The map was one picture of one floor. A second floor was added, the blueprint
changed size, and machines moved, so a position now records WHICH DRAWING its
coordinates belong to.
Buildings and levels (ADR-017). Each level owns its blueprint per theme and its
own native pixel size; assets.mapx/mapy are pixels of assets.levelid, not of the
site. A position whose level is unknown renders "level unknown" and is never
drawn on the default level, because a marker on the wrong floor plan looks
entirely correct while pointing at the wrong place.
Repositioning in bulk: filter by unplaced, needs-review or level, search, place,
confirm. Landmark recalibration solves the transform PER AXIS from landmark
pairs and never from image dimensions - the canvas grew taller without
rescaling, so a dimension-derived scale would stretch Y by 1.57 and be wrong
everywhere. It defaults to a dry run, reports what would land off the drawing,
snapshots before applying, and clears mapverifiedat because a transform is a
guess awaiting review. Snapshots restore, including the level and the review
state, and a restore snapshots first so an undo is undoable.
Search: gaugelabreference was matched only for measuring tools and
maintenancereference was matched nowhere at all, for any asset type, while
Settings happily offers both identifiers on machines and PCs. A tag an operator
is told to record has to be findable or it is a write-only field. USB devices
and printed items were unreachable from search entirely - neither is an asset,
so the generic asset search could not see them and no searcher existed; they
now match on serial, asset tag, label, bin code and gage-lab tag, honouring
isactive, with Settings toggles and result labels to match.
The retired-application rule was half a rule: GET /api/knowledgebase hid
articles whose topic application is retired while global search still returned
them and printed the retired application as the subject. A filter is only real
if every path that reaches the row applies it.
Contract to 0.20.0 (additive): Asset gained levelid and mapverifiedat, Location
gained levelid, and resolve_asset_position returns the levelid belonging to
whichever source supplied the coordinates. The five plugins that write a map
position are re-pinned. The install-list text format gained levelid as a NINTH
field, appended, because the shipped Pascal installer reads fields 0-7 by index.
That installer still compiles in one drawing's dimensions and bundles one
blueprint, so its map is accurate for the default level only; /api/maplevels is
deliberately unauthenticated so it can read both at runtime once rebuilt.
Recorded in PRINTER-INSTALLER.md section 6 along with the other known gaps.
Migration 7d33 converts an existing single-map site into one building and one
default level carrying the old map_* settings, then assigns every placed asset
and location to it. Nothing moves on screen. Old settings rows are kept so a
rollback still finds them. Verified end to end on MySQL 5.6 from a
production-shaped database.
A privilege-escalation fix in the Windows installer, the multi-site portability
work, and a documentation and API surface that a second site can rely on.
The installer created C:\shopdb-flask, C:\Python314 and C:\MySQL84 without
breaking inheritance from the drive root, whose default DACL grants
Authenticated Users an inherit-only Modify. Two files inside those roots are
executed by someone else - shopdb-admin.ps1 self-elevates, and instance
config.py is loaded unconditionally by the app - so any logged-on user could
replace either and wait. Verified fixed as SYSTEM in the Windows 11 VM against
the shipped functions.
Contract 0.19.0 is breaking: get_dashboard_widgets returns data and shape, not a
component name. The change itself shipped earlier without a bump, with the
contract docs still teaching the dead shape; both are corrected.
The version and the changelog are the release; the detail is in the entry.
An SVG is an XML document that may carry a script, and it is an accepted image
type because floor-plan maps and branding genuinely want vector. Loaded through
an img tag that script never runs, so the tiles and maps were never the risk.
Opening the file's own URL is - and the application image route is public, so
that URL needs no session.
Every route that serves an upload now goes through one helper that sends
Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'none'; sandbox, and nosniff. Seven routes
across core and five plugins, so a new one added later starts from the same
place rather than repeating the reasoning. Banning the format instead would
have cost the maps their only sensible one.
The app also sent no security headers at all. It now sets nosniff,
frame-ancestors self (as X-Frame-Options too, for the display bays' browsers)
and a referrer policy. Deliberately NOT a page-wide CSP: this serves an SPA with
inline styles, so a real script-src policy is a change worth making with the
frontend in front of you, and a permissive header claiming one would be worse
than having none.
Contract 0.19.0. send_upload is on the shopdb.api surface, because a plugin
serving user-supplied bytes should not have to remember these headers. The same
bump records that get_dashboard_widgets has taken data and shape rather than a
component name since the dashboard was rebuilt - that shipped without a bump,
while BasePlugin and PLUGIN-HOOKS.md both still documented the shape nothing
renders, which is how five plugins came to declare widgets pointing at
components nobody had written.
Core called the roles dashboard / lobby / partskiosk. The kiosks call them
Dashboard / Lobby / 3DPrintRoom, which are the literal contents of
C:\Enrollment\display-type.txt, read by the GE-Enforce dispatcher to pick a
target. Two vocabularies for three kiosks, each with its own copy of the same
route map.
That is not cosmetic. A display reporting its own type sends what its file
says, so it could report a role core would not accept, and core could store
'partskiosk', a value no dispatcher would ever match. The enforcement report
column would have shown one vocabulary from the device and the other from the
DashboardDefault fallback, in the same column.
The machine's file wins, because that is what a person edits. DISPLAY_ROLE_PATHS
takes the kiosk spelling and the display scope now uses that dict rather than
holding a second one, so the two cannot drift again. normalize_display_role
resolves any casing and the retired 'partskiosk' forward; the dispatcher already
matched its map case-insensitively and the server now agrees with it.
Nothing is turned away over a capital: the API accepts any spelling and stores
the canonical one, displaypath resolves through the normalizer so rows written
before this keep working, and the settings dropdown canonicalises on open so an
old value does not render as a blank select.
A reported subtype is normalised on the way in, but an UNRECOGNISED one is kept
verbatim. That is a kiosk with a typo in its file or a role nobody declared, and
both are worth seeing in the fleet table rather than blanked or guessed at.
Contract bumped for the added names. DashboardDefault is finally listed in
__all__ too - 0.17.0 put it on the surface and never exported it.
The enforcement reports needed to name what a display IS, and reached
straight into shopdb.core.models.dashboarddefault to do it. Plugins may
only touch core through shopdb.api, and the contract test said so.
The role belongs on the surface rather than behind it: it lives in core,
no plugin owns it, and a plugin reporting on displays has no other way to
resolve it. Added there and the version bumped, which the docs test pins.
Product version to 0.9.0, frontend in lock-step, Unreleased notes moved into a
dated section per ADR-007. The plugin contract stays at 0.16.0: it moved after
v0.8.1 and is already recorded in this release's notes, and nothing since
touched the contract surface.
A minor rather than a patch: collector behaviour changed in ways an integrator
must know about. A reported machine number no longer becomes the PC's asset
number, it builds a controls link instead; a second PC claiming a machine is
treated as a claim rather than a handover; and a backup revision chain is now
per source PC rather than per asset.
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.
The installer on the share was stamped 0.8.0 and contained sixteen commits that
were not in the v0.8.0 tag. A build that misreports its own version is exactly
what the version check in docs/RELEASING-WINDOWS.md exists to prevent, and it
would have left two sites unable to say what they were running.
Everything in 0.8.1 landed after v0.8.0 was tagged this morning, driven by two
sites entering real data for the first time: the blank-code 500, the two-slide
display that never rotated, modals discarding a part-filled form, filters
returning an empty page, model photos that could not be saved, and the shared
equipment catalog that lets a new site start with vendors, models and printer
supply part numbers already present.
CHANGELOG gains a 0.8.1 section, and the OpenAPI document follows __version__
rather than being restated.
A site reported "internal server error" adding a second business unit. It was
reproducible: create one with a blank code, create another with a blank code,
500.
A column that is unique and nullable accepts any number of NULLs - that is what
makes "optional but unique" work - and exactly ONE empty string. The form sent
'', so the first blank code saved and every one after it collided with it. The
field showed no asterisk because it genuinely is optional; the database just
behaved as though it were not.
This is not specific to business units. A dozen columns across core and the
plugins are unique and nullable - asset numbers, hostnames, item codes, subnet
names, gage-lab tags - and each was one blank form away from the same 500.
Fixing them an endpoint at a time would have left the next to be found by a
user, so a before_flush listener normalises blank to NULL on any unique nullable
text column. Listening on Session rather than on individual mappers covers
plugin models imported later, and avoids mapper-event semantics that differ
between SQLAlchemy versions.
A genuine duplicate is now a 409 with a readable message rather than a bare 500
with a traceback in the log: reusing a code that is taken is the caller's
mistake, not a server fault.
Verified against the development database: three business units with blank codes
all save, the blank stores as NULL, and a real duplicate code returns 409.
The Windows installer has never shipped under a version: v0.7.0 was tagged
before any of it existed, so every build handed out so far stamped a server with
0.7.0. Two servers running different builds were indistinguishable, and the
installer logged each upgrade as "same version already installed" rather than
recording what changed. This cuts the release that fixes that.
0.8.0 rather than a patch: the air-gapped installer is a new capability, and
pre-1.0 semantic versioning puts that in the minor slot (ADR-007).
CHANGELOG gains a 0.8.0 section covering the twelve defects a real Windows
Server 2019 install surfaced, the move from inferring "is this a re-run of my
install?" to recording it, and the operator documentation.
deploy/site-profile-universal.json is now in the repository. Released builds
were being produced from a profile in a temporary directory, so the next release
could not have been reproduced once that file was cleaned up.
docs/RELEASING-WINDOWS.md points at the committed profile and says why.
scripts/gen_openapi.py reads __version__ out of shopdb/__init__.py instead of
restating it. Its hardcoded copy had already drifted a release behind, which is
the same mistake that once shipped an installer stamped with the wrong version.
Adopting a site means getting its asset register in. The HTTP import API suits a
site with a source system and someone to script against it; a sister site with a
spreadsheet and no developer needs something else, and that is the common case.
FOREIGN KEYS TAKE NAMES. This is the whole design. A CSV row has to say where an
asset is, and the database stores locationid, an integer. Requiring the number
means importing locations, reading back the generated ids and pasting them into
the asset sheet - a workflow nobody finishes. Every foreign key here accepts
either a numeric id or the referenced row's name:
assetnumber,assettypeid,statusid,locationid
CMM-01,Measuring Tool,Active,Gage Lab
The column keeps its database name, per CONTRIBUTING.md; the value is whatever
the operator actually knows. Names resolve across files in one run, so
assets.csv can reference a location that only exists because locations.csv was
read moments earlier. A name that does not resolve is reported with its line,
column and value, not as a foreign key violation from three layers down.
Dry run is the default, and writes go into the transaction either way - the
rollback is what makes it a dry run. Skipping the writes instead made every
cross-file reference fail, which is the one thing a folder-wide check exists to
verify. Validation covers every row before anything is written, so a typo on
line 400 cannot leave 399 rows imported. Files are matched on a natural key, so
correcting a spreadsheet and re-running updates rather than duplicates.
TEMPLATES ARE GENERATED, NOT MAINTAINED. "flask csv templates" builds them from
the live schema, annotated with required/optional and which file each foreign
key refers to. The prompt for this was a hand-written template set that had
invented columns on seven of eleven tables and named a table that does not
exist, while looking entirely plausible - and described an import mechanism
(a Data Import page, a flask import-csv command) that had never existed. A test
fails the build if a generated template ever offers a column the schema lacks.
User accounts are deliberately not importable: passwords do not belong in a
spreadsheet in either direction.
Verified end to end against MySQL 5.6 - a folder dry run catching one bad
reference, the fix, the commit, and a re-run reporting updates rather than
inserts. 16 tests.
Two independent ways a restart leaves the SPA unable to navigate, both of
which look identical to a user - a click that does nothing.
1. The router awaits loadEnabledPlugins() to gate plugin routes. An app-pool
restart leaves that request hanging (IIS queues it while the worker starts)
and axios sets no timeout, so the navigation never resolves. Worse, the
promise is cached, so every later navigation awaited the same dead request
and stayed frozen long after the backend recovered. Bound the wait and fail
open on expiry, and drop the cached promise when an attempt times out or
fails so the next navigation retries. The setup-state probe in the guard
gets the same bound (it already fails open, defaulting to "complete").
2. A deploy replaces the content-hashed chunk files, so a tab open across it
asks for chunks that no longer exist and the dynamic import rejects with
nothing handling it. Reload once on a chunk-load error, via router.onError
and Vite's preloadError, guarded by a sessionStorage flag against a reload
loop and cleared on the next successful navigation.
Also stop index.html being cached: it names the hashed chunks, so a stale copy
points at files the deploy already deleted. It now revalidates while the
hashed assets under assets/ cache for a year.
Generate docs/openapi.json (3.1, 362 operations) from the API inventory via
scripts/gen_openapi.py, and serve it with a self-hosted Redoc bundle at
/api/docs - no CDN, works on the air-gapped box. Also serve docs/llms.txt (a
concise LLM entrypoint) at /api/docs/llms.txt. New core 'docs' blueprint;
staticdocs/ excluded from the naming check (vendored minified JS).
A geenforce.fetch token can now be pinned to specific manifest scopes so a
fleet-wide key (a display's, delivered by DSC or baked into the image) is not a
skeleton key for the whole content store. NULL binding = unrestricted, so every
existing service token keeps working.
Core:
- ApiToken.resourcescopes column + resourcescopelist property (migration
7d30_apitoken_resourcescopes; NULL = unrestricted).
- apitokens API create/update accept + persist an optional resourcescopes list
(a resource-name allowlist; not permission-catalog names).
- New contract helper authorized_service_token(scope): same check as
service_token_authorized but returns the ApiToken so a plugin can read its
binding. Contract 0.14.0 -> 0.15.0; also export SupportTeam.
GE-Enforce enforcement:
- get_manifest: a bound token requesting a scope outside its allowlist -> 403.
- get_payload: a bound token may only pull a blob its own scope(s) reference
(service.blob_referenced_by_scopes); anything else -> 404 (no hash probing).
- Decorator stashes the authorized token on g for the route to read.
Also fixes a pre-existing contract-surface violation: the printers/printedparts
alert helpers imported shopdb.core.models / shopdb.extensions directly; now
via shopdb.api (SupportTeam newly exported). Docs: GE-ENFORCE-DISPLAY.md
provisioning note, PLUGIN-HOOKS.md, CLAUDE.md.
9 new resource-binding tests; full suite 1131 passing.
send_webhook(title,text) posts alerts to an optional webhook (Teams Incoming
Webhook / Workflow, or generic JSON) via alert_webhook_url + alert_webhook_format
settings; send_alert fans out to it alongside email; exposed on shopdb.api
(0.13.0->0.14.0, PLUGIN-HOOKS synced); low-stock posts on its custom-recipient
path too. Also: recent-transactions table shows the consumed print-file revision.
Contract 0.13.0 puts the User model on the plugin surface. The
settings page gains a checkbox picker over the user list; selected
users receive low-stock alerts at their account email, merged and
deduped with the free-text address list, inactive accounts skipped,
site alert_recipients still the fallback when both are empty.
Contract 0.12.0: send_email/send_alert join the plugin surface (the
mailer was core-only), PLUGIN-HOOKS and status docs updated, manifest
pins the new floor. The alert fires inside _ledger_write only when a
decrement CROSSES the item's threshold - one alert per depletion,
rearmed by restocking above - and is best-effort after the commit so
mail trouble can never fail a take. Recipients come from
printedparts_alert_email, falling back to the site alert_recipients.
on_enable re-seeds settings idempotently so existing installs pick up
new keys. Crossing/rearm semantics proven by test.
First execution phases of docs/proposals/ge-enforce-plugin.md. The GE-Enforce
manifest becomes shopdb data.
P0 scaffold: new geenforce plugin (api_prefix /api/geenforce, default_enabled
false, core_version >=0.7.0). Registered in PLUGIN_TABLE_OWNERS (ADR-008); its
0001 baseline really creates the tables.
P1a model: one wide manifestentries table + entrytype discriminator (not STI,
not JSON blob), manifestscopes (UNIQUE scopename+phase), the three multi-value
filter child tables, inusechecks + processes, immutable manifestpublishedversions
(frozen rendered JSON), manifestpayloads (inline, capped), pctypealiases
(mirror of the engine lib's alias graph). regvalue stored as its raw JSON
literal so DWord typing survives.
P1c importer + exporter: parse common + gea-shopfloor-* + preinstall.json into
draft rows and rebuild the JSON verbatim from rows in sortorder.
P1d parity harness (GATE A): filters.py mirrors the engine's four filter
functions + alias graph; parity.py proves import+export is behaviorally lossless
(field-identical + same-entries-fire across 18 machine-profile fixtures) WITHOUT
byte-diffing. Verified PASS against all 11 real reference manifests (64 entries)
and a synthetic site-neutral fixture covering every type/filter (the CI gate).
First slice (gea-shopfloor-cmm shape): service layer (import/publish/rollback/
export-to-share), CLI (parity, import-share, publish, export-share), and the
client endpoint GET /api/geenforce/manifest serving the current published
snapshot (never the draft) with ETag/304. Split permissions
geenforce.manage/publish/fetch. Tests prove import->publish->serve, draft edits
never change served bytes, publish+rollback, and auth (401 unauth/wrong-scope).
Contract 0.11.0: added service_token_authorized(scope) to shopdb.api so plugin
service endpoints authorize a scoped managed token without importing core token
internals. Documented in PLUGIN-HOOKS.md.

Cuts the large post-0.6.0 pile as a pinnable release: the machines
rename (ADR-011), the API import surface, personal/scoped/collector
API tokens and the get_permissions plugin hook, the ADR-010 frontend
hook contract, per-plugin migrations, model/employee photos, the
dualpath single-machine toggle and relationship propagation, support
teams, email sending, and the shared asset label generator. Plugin
contract moved 0.6.0 -> 0.10.0 over this range (distinct series per
ADR-007).

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.

API tokens: any user mints named, optionally-expiring tokens
(shopdb_pat_..., sha256-stored, secret shown once) at Settings > API
Tokens; a before-request shim swaps a valid PAT for a request-scoped
JWT of its owner, so the entire existing auth/authz/import-mode stack
works unchanged and revoked/expired tokens 401 cleanly. Built for
long-running scripts - the legacy import no longer dies when a login
JWT expires. Migration 7d21_apitokens; create/revoke audit-logged.
Audited integration gaps fixed: Asset.to_dict serializes measuring
tools (typedata + pluginid - relationship links to tools resolve); map
subtype filter/colors and MapEditor include them; dashboard totals
count them; warranty links use a new by-asset route; the measuringtools
ADR-010 hooks are real (corrected presentation token, implemented
map-overlay endpoint); the login avatar resolves through the
employee-photo helper.
737 tests pass; naming green; frontend builds; both features verified
live end-to-end.

Most facilities consider a Dualpath pair one physical dual-bay machine.
New site setting dualpath_single_machine (default on): the machines
list, dashboard counts, machines-by-type report, and floor map collapse
each pair to its primary bay (lower assetnumber), with combined
2007 / 2008 labels; pagination totals stay honest. Detail pages remain
per-bay and always show a dual-bay sibling banner linking the partner.
Pair resolution lives in core services and joins the plugin contract
surface (0.8.0 -> 0.9.0).
On the WJ dataset: 31 pairs collapse, machine counts 262 -> 231, map
470 assets. Toggle verified live in both states, left on.

Model photos: upload/replace/delete on /api/models/<id>/image (admin),
stored under instance/modelimages/ with a public serve route; thumbnail
plus Upload/Replace/Remove controls in the Models settings modal; the
URL field remains as a manual alternative.
Employee photos, mode-aware: self-hosted directory employees get
upload/replace/delete (photo-<sso> under instance/employeephotos/,
employees plugin migration 0002); external directory mode passes the
HR-supplied picture URL through read-only (writes 409). One resolver
feeds both consumers - the shopfloor recognition/recert kiosk cards and
the employee detail hero - in either mode.
Navigation fix: router-view is keyed on route path, so following a
relationship link between two assets of the same type (machine ->
dualpath machine) reloads the page instead of showing stale content;
query-only URL changes still avoid a remount.

Replaces the legacy supportteams/appowners pair: supportteams
(teamname unique, teamurl ServiceNow link) + supportteamcontacts
(multiple named contacts with SSO per team, the people you reach out
to), applications.supportteamid intact. Migration 7d18 migrates each
legacy team owner into a contact, drops appowners, and has a validated
downgrade. New /api/supportteams CRUD (admin writes, import-mode
timestamps, teamname lookup), Support card on application detail,
contacts column on the list, and a settings management page.
IMPORT-API.md mapping updated to the concrete endpoints.
658 tests pass; live dev migration applied (24 teams / 24 contacts);
fresh-install and downgrade round-trips verified on scratch DBs.

Goal: an LLM or script can migrate an entire legacy database using only
the HTTP API - original history preserved, safely re-runnable.
- X-Import-Mode header (admin only): create/update endpoints across 15
timestamped entity types accept original createddate/modifieddate;
helper exposed via shopdb.api (contract 0.7.0 -> 0.8.0).
- Exact-match natural-key lookup filters on 13 list endpoints for the
lookup-then-upsert recipe.
- Selfhosted USB checkout/checkin accept backdated event times in
import mode.
- docs/IMPORT-API.md: operator manual grounded in the real legacy
schema - order of operations, full table-by-table mapping including
the machines fan-out, idempotent Python importer with dry-run, parity
checks, and decided dispositions for unmigrated tables (DNC config
stays live-fed via the collector; supportteams/appowners map to the
upcoming supportteams model).
635 tests pass; naming green; frontend untouched.

Four data-only hooks on BasePlugin (get_settings_cards,
get_asset_panels, get_map_overlays, get_asset_presentation) with a
GET-only /api/pluginui consumer surface copying the dashboard-widgets
semantics. Pilots: warranty declares its asset panel; measuringtools
supplies its settings card, presentation, and calibration overlay -
the last hardcoded settings-nav entry is now hook-sourced. Generic
renderers for panels/overlays/presentation deferred per the ADR's
incremental adoption plan (documented in CONTRACT-STABILITY.md).

Bump __version__ per ADR-007; roll Unreleased into the 0.6.0
changelog section. Covers the machines rename (ADR-011), the
measuringtools plugin, per-plugin migrations (ADR-008), route
gating (ADR-009), the get_reports hook (contract 0.6.0), and
the sister-site adoption docs.

The equipment plugin is now the machines plugin, ending the UI-vs-code
vocabulary split while the contract is pre-1.0 and nothing external
depends on the old names.
- plugins/equipment -> plugins/machines: manifest, class, /api/machines,
machines.* permissions, registry key (with an auto-migrating load shim
for existing installs).
- Tables: equipment -> machines (equipmentid -> machineid) and
equipmenttypes -> machinetypes, renamed in the plugin's own migration
chain (machines0002rename), idempotent for both upgrading and fresh
installs.
- The legacy core machinetypes lookup actually types the vendor MODELS
catalog, so it is renamed losslessly to modeltypes
(models.modeltypeid, /api/modeltypes, Model Types settings page)
rather than collapsed, freeing the machinetypes name. Core migration
7d17_machines_rename also flips data in place: assettypes row
equipment -> machine, auditlog entitytype, identifier_/search_
settings keys, permission rows, and renames alembic_version_equipment.
- Frontend: machinesApi/modeltypesApi, item.machine response shape,
assettype value compares 'equipment' -> 'machine' (map, search,
custom fields, relationships), routes machines.js with plugin gating
retagged, /print/machine-badge, Machine Types (subtypes) and Model
Types (catalog) settings pages, machines-by-type report id.
- Docs swept; ADRs left as history per the authoring rule.
Upgrade: flask db upgrade then flask plugin upgrade-all.
Verified: dev DB flipped live (262 machines, 35 modeltypes, 95 models
retyped, zero equipment tables remain); fresh scratch-MySQL install
produces the new names; 341 tests green; naming/style green; frontend
builds; live E2E on machines list/detail, PC relationships, map,
reports, and both settings pages.

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.

Make the app distributable to other GE Aerospace sites (one self-hosted
instance per site, ADR-004). GE values remain the shipped defaults; every
site-specific behavior is now a Setting an admin can change in the UI.
Settings-driven site config:
- Branding: site/QR/badge logos, favicon, primary color (upload endpoints
mirror the map-blueprint pattern; new Settings > Branding section).
- ServiceNow: search/incident/change URL templates ({ticket}), ticket
prefixes, enable toggle. Defaults point at the current
geaerospaceqa.service-now.com global search. Disabled = plain-text tickets.
- Employee-id regex (employeeid_pattern), printer hostname template,
QR label targets (qr_target_printer / qr_target_usb, blank = asset page,
else URL template with placeholders), usb_label_style (barcode|qr).
- West Jefferson floor-plan PNGs removed from the tree; generic placeholder
ships as the map default and sites upload their own blueprint.
Security closeout:
- dashboarddefaults writes now require admin.
- Collector: generic error messages (no str(exc) leak); API key accepted
via X-API-Key header only (BREAKING: querystring api_key removed).
- IP-based login rate limiting (AUTH_RATELIMIT_* knobs) atop account lockout.
- Setting.set() creation race fixed (IntegrityError retry).
Release engineering and docs:
- __version__ 0.5.0 (distinct from __contract_version__, ADR-007),
CHANGELOG.md, Gitea Actions CI config, frontend version aligned.
- One wizard-first install story across README/DEPLOY; new CONFIG.md,
UPGRADE.md, BACKUP-RESTORE.md; CLAUDE.md and ROADMAP de-staled.
- Dockerfile multi-stage build now bundles the frontend; compose binds
MySQL to 127.0.0.1; stale database/schema.sql and one-off SQL removed.
Debt and fixes:
- .query.get() -> db.session.get() sweep; datetime.utcnow() removed
(naive-UTC via timezone-aware now); users.py on authz decorators.
- Fixed 4 stale tests (slides feed shape, shopfloor splitperemployee,
plugin contract purity) and the USB label page field mapping (both usb
modes emit the cmmc shape: device_id/device_desc).
- Health endpoint reports the real version.
248 tests pass; naming/style check green; frontend builds; fresh-DB
flask db upgrade + seeds verified; QR targets verified by decoding
rendered codes.

- setup_complete site setting; a fresh admin is steered to /setup until it is
finished (skippable for the session).
- SetupWizard.vue: Site (facility/base-url/access-domain), Features (plugin
enable/disable), Floor Map dimensions, Starter Data (seed common vendors),
Finish. Reuses the settings + plugins APIs.
- setup blueprint: POST /setup/seed-starter (idempotent common vendors) and
POST /setup/complete. setupState composable drives the router redirect.

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.
