Add a USelectMenu for displayTimezone in Event Details (defaults to
America/Toronto). On submit, convert each datetime-local string
(startDate, endDate, registrationDeadline, earlyBirdDeadline) from the
event's TZ to a UTC ISO string so the wall-clock time the admin entered
is preserved regardless of their browser TZ. On edit, render stored
UTC back through the event's TZ so the round-trip is stable.
Reuses TIMEZONE_OPTIONS from ~/config/timezones and the picker pattern
from member/profile.vue. Auto-imported helpers from app/utils/timezones
do the math via Intl.
The old "Members always get free access" sat at the bottom of the
Ticketing section next to the top-level Enable Ticketing toggle, which
conflated the member-vs-public audience split with the ticketing
mechanism. Admins read it as "I need to enable ticketing for free
public events," the opposite of how the system works.
Move the note next to Public Tickets Available (where the audience
split actually matters) and rephrase: public pricing applies to
non-members; members register from their dashboard regardless.
Events are often scheduled before the platform (Zoom link, Slack
channel) is chosen. The current workaround is a placeholder URL like
"https://us02web.zoom.us/j/TBD", which leaks to the public page as a
broken link.
Accept the literal "TBD" (case-insensitive) in both the Mongoose
validator and the form-side validator. The public detail page renders
"Platform TBD" instead of a link when the location matches.
The Event model and Zod schemas already supported membersOnly, but the
admin form never exposed it — public/private was implicit and not
editable from the UI.
Add a fifth checkbox alongside the other Event Settings, hydrate it on
edit, reset it in saveAndCreateAnother.
Top-level $fetch in <script setup> does not forward auth cookies to the
SSR request, so requireAdmin rejected and the form hydrated empty.
Client refetch then triggered hydration mismatches; in dev the
description textarea stayed DOM-empty and the browser's native required
validation blocked saves.
Switch to useFetch (SSR-aware, forwards cookies). Mirror the
admin/members/[id].vue pattern: extract populateEditForm, call it with
the initial payload, watch for client-side updates.
- Hide the location field's static help text when a validation error is
shown so the two near-identical messages stop stacking.
- Replace `process.client` with `import.meta.client` (Nuxt 3+ pattern).
- Accept either String or Date for EventTicketPurchase.eventStartDate;
the parent passes the API's ISO string, which was logging a Vue prop
type warning on every public event page render.
Editing an event was pulling its UTC startDate/endDate, slicing off the
"Z" with toISOString().slice(0, 16), and then handing the bare digits to
a datetime-local input. The input reinterprets them as local time, so
each save shifted the time by the browser's UTC offset. Same pattern
for registrationDeadline and earlyBirdDeadline.
Format the value using local-time components instead so the round-trip
matches what the admin sees.
The .is-cancelled row used opacity:0.5, which dragged --text-faint
(#665c4b) on the cream background to a 2.1:1 ratio against #f4efe4 —
serious axe violation flagged in CI. Strikethrough on the title and
tagline conveys the cancelled state without crushing contrast; the
existing .cancelled-tag in --ember still flags the row.
Promote inline STATUS_LABELS copies (admin/members/index.vue,
member/account.vue) into app/config/memberStatus.js, matching the
app/config/circles.js pattern. Drive admin/members/[id].vue status
select from the same constant — completes the alignment started in
441a5f5.
Use the softer member-facing copy as canonical: "Paused" / "Closed"
instead of "Suspended" / "Cancelled".
Also fix markSlackInvited's non-reactive Object.assign on a plain
object inside a useFetch array — replace with index-find + element
reassignment so the row UI refreshes without a manual reload.
The status options were duplicated three times in admin/members/index.vue
(filter dropdown, edit-modal dropdown, statusLabel helper). The recent
"Pending Payment" → "Payment setup incomplete" rename only landed in
two of the three sites. Both <select>s now v-for over the existing
STATUS_LABELS const, so any future label change happens in one place.
Side effect: the edit-modal dropdown order is now
(active, pending_payment, suspended, cancelled) to match the filter
dropdown — was previously pending_payment-first.
- /join "How membership works" lists community (not Slack) as a benefit;
adds a note that Slack invitations come in monthly onboarding waves.
- Dashboard slack-coming note drops "2–3 weeks" timeline; uses the same
monthly-waves phrasing.
- Welcome email no longer points new members to Slack (which they don't
yet have access to); directs them to reply instead.
- B: token-equivalent rgba → color-mix(srgb, var(--ember|green|candle) X%, transparent) so colors track dark mode
- C: drop stale var(--green, #...) fallbacks (canonical token now defined in main.css)
- F: inline circle badge → <CircleBadge/> in admin/index, members/[id], members/index
Test file: drop step markers, regression explainers, and the lead
comment block that restated the contract; hoist the shared subscription
request body to a const; move Member mock defaults into the test that
uses them. Two it() cases unchanged.
Events page: drop WCAG comment that narrated what the
.past-toggle:focus-visible selector already says.
Custom .past-toggle button had no focus indicator — keyboard users
got nothing. Match the canonical WCAG 2.4.7 outline used on .btn
and .zine-select (dashed candle, 3px offset).
Renders only when status==='active' && !slackInvited. Hidden for
pending_payment, suspended, cancelled, guest, and any member already
flagged as invited. Lives inside the existing ClientOnly tree at the
top of the dashboard so it never SSRs.
Plain inline text in the welcome region — no banner, no callout. The
2–3 week window is admin-side workflow; the copy avoids cohort/wave
language.
Replaces the placeholder Slack-invite handler with a call to the new
PATCH /api/admin/members/:id/slack-status endpoint. Status labels are
reworded to match reality (no Slack API call from this app):
- Pending → Not yet invited
- Invited → Invited <slackInvitedAt>
- Action button copy → 'Mark as Slack invited'
- Removes slackInviteStatus reads from the member detail page (the
remaining repo-wide sweep lands in the cleanup task).
Helcim refuses paymentType:'verify' for cards already saved on a
customer ("A new card must be entered for saving the payment method"),
breaking every "Complete Payment" retry after a partial-failed signup.
Add GET /api/helcim/existing-card and short-circuit HelcimPay verify in
useMemberPayment + payment-setup.vue when a saved card is found, going
straight to subscription creation. The two existence-check fetches run
in parallel with get-or-create-customer so no extra round-trip latency
in the common path.
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.
Self-cancel endpoint now rejects paid registrations (public, series_pass,
or paid member tickets) with a 403 pointing to /policies/refunds. Free
and $0-member registrations still self-cancel as before. Adds the
refunds policy page referenced in the error message.
Friendlier tone + ghost emoji on invite/welcome subjects; invite
templates now offer a reply-to-this-email fallback; tighten OIDC
wiki sign-in and event registration confirmation copy.
Adds a small paragraph directly below the tier list stating the
Baby Ghosts Studio Development Fund charity status, noting that
Canadian taxpayers can claim contributions, and that setup for
receipts happens after joining. Styled in parallel to
.solidarity-note (12px, --text-dim, 1.65 line-height) so it reads as
a bullet, not a banner.
Scope is /join only — /accept-invite and /member/account copy is
untouched per spec §3.
Three related changes on /member/account:
1. Payment History section now renders when contributionAmount > 0 OR
past payments exist. Previously a paid member who switched to $0 lost
visibility of their own past charges.
2. New "Next charge: $X on DATE" row renders above the transaction list
when nextPaymentDate is available, using --candle dashed border.
3. server/api/helcim/subscription.get.js now reads dateBilling from
Helcim's GET response and handles data as either object or array.
Helcim's real shape is {data: {id, dateBilling, ...}} — the old code
expected {data: [{nextBillingDate}]} and returned empty strings, so
the Membership-card "Next payment" row never rendered for members
whose cached date was missing. subscription.post.js and
update-contribution.post.js have the same wrong field name in their
CREATE flows; left for a follow-up — the GET refresh masks it.
Manual edit-flow and admin-flow tests also recorded in
docs/LAUNCH_READINESS.md.
Extract shared SignupFlowOverlay component. Static "Monthly Contribution"
label on all three contribution inputs (was misleadingly dynamic).
"Per Year"/"Per Month" toggle copy; Per Year default on accept-invite,
Per Month default on join. Live billing-summary card on both signup
flows. Welcome-heading on dashboard via ?welcome=1 for new signups.
$0-member polish on account page (hide payment-history + Solidarity
Fund prompts). State-aware contribution-change hint. Invite accept now
creates Helcim customer and sets auth cookie server-side for both free
and paid branches. Pre-registrant invite + /join signup flows manually
verified against Cleo Nguyen preReg and $0-$50 variants.
Persist nextBillingDate on subscription create/update; unset on
cancel or downgrade to free. Account page displays the cached
date and lazily refreshes from Helcim when the cached value is
within 24h of now (or missing).
Add Payment history section (live-read from Helcim, with loading/empty/error states)
and Change card flow (HelcimPay.js zero-dollar auth -> POST /api/helcim/update-card)
to /member/account. Relabel Helcim portal link to "Advanced billing in Helcim →"
and demote it to a secondary link at the bottom of the billing group.
Removes the 3-second setTimeout that deferred navigateTo('/welcome').
The overlay success state was a holdover from the pre-refactor Step-3
inline block; now that /welcome is the single welcome surface, the
delay just stalls a completed action and fights the continuous-flow
goal of the overlay.
After createSubscription() calls checkMemberStatus(), isAuthenticated
flips to true and the <template v-else> branch unmounts, taking the
Teleport (and its overlay) with it. The authenticated 'You're already a
member' UI then showed for the 3-second pre-redirect delay, producing a
visible flash before navigateTo('/welcome') fired.
Teleport now lives at the root div alongside the v-if/v-else branches,
so the overlay stays mounted through the auth state transition and
covers the page continuously until the redirect.
"$50/yr" was ambiguous — could mean the $5 tier in annual mode or the
$50 tier in monthly mode. On /join the dropdown now shows both prices
("$5/mo → $50/yr") in annual mode. On the account page TierPicker
gains a subtitle slot; annual mode shows "$N/mo tier" beneath the
annual price so members recognize which tier they're on.
