Day-of-launch deep-dive audit and remediation. 11 issues fixed across
security, correctness, and reliability. Tests: 698 → 758 passing
(+60), 0 failing, 2 skipped.
CRITICAL (security)
Fix#1 — HELCIM_API_TOKEN removed from runtimeConfig.public; dead
useHelcim.js deleted. Production token MUST BE ROTATED post-deploy
(was previously exposed in window.__NUXT__ payload).
Fix#2 — /api/helcim/customer gated with origin check + per-IP/email
rate limit + magic-link email verification (replaces unauthenticated
setAuthCookie). Adds payment-bridge token for paid-tier signup so
users can complete Helcim checkout before email verify. New utils:
server/utils/{magicLink,rateLimit}.js. UX: signup success copy now
prompts user to check email.
Fix#3 — /api/events/[id]/payment deleted (dead code with unauth
member-spoof bypass — processHelcimPayment was a permanent stub).
Removes processHelcimPayment export and eventPaymentSchema.
Fix#4 — /api/helcim/initialize-payment re-derives ticket amount
server-side via calculateTicketPrice and calculateSeriesTicketPrice.
Adds new series_ticket metadata type (was being shoved through
event_ticket with seriesId in metadata.eventId).
Fix#5 — /api/helcim/customer upgrades existing status:guest members
in place rather than rejecting with 409. Lowercases email at lookup;
preserves _id so prior event registrations stay linked.
HIGH (correctness / reliability)
Fix#6 — Daily reconciliation cron via Netlify scheduled function
(@daily). New: netlify.toml, netlify/functions/reconcile-payments.mjs,
server/api/internal/reconcile-payments.post.js. Shared-secret auth
via NUXT_RECONCILE_TOKEN env var. Inline 3-retry exponential backoff
on Helcim transactions API.
Fix#7 — validateBeforeSave: false on event subdoc saves (waitlist
endpoints) to dodge legacy location validators.
Fix#8 — /api/series/[id]/tickets/purchase always upserts a guest
Member when caller is unauthenticated, mirrors event-ticket flow
byte-for-byte. SeriesPassPurchase.vue adds guest-account hint and
client auth refresh on signedIn:true response.
Fix#9 — /api/members/cancel-subscription leaves status active per
ratified bylaws (was pending_payment). Adds lastCancelledAt audit
field on Member model. Indirectly fixes false-positive
detectStuckPendingPayment admin alert for cancelled members.
Fix#10 — /api/auth/verify uses validateBody with strict() Zod schema
(verifyMagicLinkSchema, max 2000 chars).
Fix#11 — 8 vitest cases for cancel-subscription handler (was
uncovered).
Specs and audit at docs/superpowers/specs/2026-04-25-fix-*.md and
docs/superpowers/plans/2026-04-25-launch-readiness-fixes.md.
LAUNCH_READINESS.md updated with new test count, 3 deploy-time
tasks (rotate Helcim token, set NUXT_RECONCILE_TOKEN, verify
Netlify scheduled function), and Fixed-2026-04-25 fix log.
pending_payment now grants the same RSVP/peer-support capabilities as active,
and status banner/label copy is rewritten to be non-threatening ("Setting up
payment", "Paused", "Closed"). Aligns member-facing copy across the account
page with the capability model.
Delete uses findOneAndDelete with author match (no TOCTOU window);
existence check only runs on miss to distinguish 403 vs 404. Posts
list capped at 200. Drop unused resolveTagChannel and refreshParams;
route slack URL building through the composable's slackUrl helper.
- Timezone: curated USelectMenu dropdown (app/config/timezones.js), preserves unknown saved values
- Profile save now uses useToast() for success/error; remove inline save banner
- Nav onboarding dot nudged down 1px for optical alignment with lowercase text
- Onboarding: skip a suggestion with POST /api/onboarding/track {skip}; member.onboarding.skipped map; does not affect graduation
- CirclePicker takes :saved-value so 'Current' badge stays until save completes
- PrivacyToggle is binary (USwitch labeled Private); member schema enum reduced to ['members','private']; zod coerces legacy 'public'
- New /member/payment-setup page: HelcimPay $0 verify + update-contribution, wired from account.vue via requiresPaymentSetup redirect
- Helcim portal: NUXT_PUBLIC_HELCIM_PORTAL_URL env + account.vue 'Manage billing in Helcim' link
- Migration script: scripts/migrate-privacy-public-to-members.js
- useBoardPosts: CRUD with useState('board.posts','board.loading')
- useBoardChannels: fetch + resolveTagChannel + slackUrl helpers
- useBoard.js removed (old suggestions wrapper); only app/pages/board.vue still imports it, will be rewritten in Phase 5
- Add Board to exploreItems in AppNavigation
- Update ecology.vue + connections.vue redirects to /board
- Rename all communityEcology refs to board in member profiles, dashboard, admin, onboarding
- Update API path /api/members/me/community-ecology → /api/members/me/board
The Skills Exchange + Peer Support feature was replaced by Community
Connections on 2026-04-05, but several files and code paths were left
in place as backward-compat. None are reachable from the live UI:
- usePeerSupport.js composable: not imported anywhere
- PeerSupportBadge.vue: not imported anywhere
- peer-support.vue: stub redirect with no incoming links
- /api/peer-support.get.js: only consumed by usePeerSupport
- /api/members/me/peer-support.patch.js: same
- profile.patch.js offering/lookingFor write branches: profile form
no longer sends these fields (only writes communityConnections.*)
- PEER_SUPPORT_ENABLED/DISABLED activity types and renderers: only
written by the deleted peer-support.patch endpoint. The activityText
formatter has a fallback for unknown types so existing records
still display ("peer support enabled" with a generic icon).
Tests updated to drop peerSupportUpdateSchema coverage and the
offering/lookingFor passthrough assertion.
schemas.js cleanup deferred — concurrent communityConnections →
communityEcology rename is in flight in the working tree.
- useConnections composable wrapping all /api/connections endpoints
- Connections page with suggestions, filters, and connection management
- Pending connection count badge in sidebar navigation
- peer-support.vue now redirects to /connections
Remove redundant checkMemberStatus() from coming-soon page since the
auth-init plugin already handles it. Add in-flight request deduplication
to prevent concurrent calls from any source. Strip debug console.logs.
Auth: Add requireAuth/requireAdmin guards with JWT cookie verification,
member status checks (suspended/cancelled = 403), and admin role
enforcement. Apply to all admin, upload, and payment endpoints. Add
role field to Member model.
CSRF: Double-submit cookie middleware with client plugin. Exempt
webhook and magic-link verify routes.
Headers: X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection,
Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy on all responses. HSTS and CSP
(Helcim/Cloudinary/Plausible sources) in production only.
Rate limiting: Auth 5/5min, payment 10/min, upload 10/min, general
100/min via rate-limiter-flexible, keyed by client IP.
XSS: DOMPurify sanitization on marked() output with tag/attr
allowlists. escapeHtml() utility for email template interpolation.
Anti-enumeration: Login returns identical response for existing and
non-existing emails. Remove 404 handling from login UI components.
Mass assignment: Remove helcimCustomerId from profile allowedFields.
Session: 7-day token expiry, refresh endpoint, httpOnly+secure cookies.
Environment: Validate required secrets on startup via server plugin.
Remove JWT_SECRET hardcoded fallback.
