- Updated Dexie/liveQuery guide with detailed explanation of the
try_cache + microtask yield bug pattern
- Marked session view refactor project as RESOLVED (2026-02-26)
- Added inline code comments to all three fixed loader functions
explaining the critical fixes
Documents the 'refresh twice' bug resolution for future reference.
Added await Promise.resolve() yields after IndexedDB writes to ensure
Dexie observers fire before function returns. Aligns with pattern
established in event loaders fix.
Journals module was already working correctly (preserved try_cache),
but adding yields ensures consistent timing behavior across all
nested data loading patterns.
Adds the first successful, stable Playwright integration test for the SvelteKit frontend. This test serves as a template for future UI/UX and integration tests.
Key outcomes and learnings captured in this test:
- Establishes a pattern for running tests against the high-speed 'npm run dev' server.
- Verifies critical API security header logic, including the unauthenticated bypass for lookups and account ID scavenging from localStorage.
- Solves application boot crashes in a test environment by injecting a complete, default 'ae_loc' state object into localStorage before the app hydrates.
- Demonstrates the correct, race-condition-free pattern for waiting on network requests that are handled by API mocks.
This commit also removes the old, unreliable Node.js-based scripts ('verify_jwt_logic.js', 'verify_jwt_sync.js') that these new tests replace.
- Sequenced sections as Country, Subdivisions, then Time Zones.
- Implemented a reactive toggle for 'only_priority' in the Time Zone section to support high-priority filtering.
- Switched to a full-width card layout for improved readability of large datasets.
- Updated V3 lookup API and core timezone loader to support the 'only_priority' flag.
- Enabled high-priority timezone filtering in IDAA Recovery Meeting and Archive editors to streamline selection lists.
- Created 'src/lib/ae_api/api_get__lookup_v3.ts' to handle the new '/v3/lookup/{lu_type}/list' endpoint.
- Refactored 'get_ae_obj_li_for_lu' in 'api.ts' to prioritize the V3 system for countries, subdivisions, and time zones, with V2 fallback for legacy types.
- Ensured lookups use the 'x-no-account-id' bypass for unauthenticated site bootstrapping.
- Updated core country, subdivision, and time zone loaders to use the refined API interface.
Implemented explicit 'enabled' and 'hidden' parameter support in the Event data layer ('load_ae_obj_id__event').
Updated the Events Launcher layout and background sync engine to proactively fetch all enabled locations (including hidden ones), ensuring the room select list is complete and stays updated.
Refined 'launcher_file_cont.svelte' to only display native-specific file opening instructions when 'app_mode' is 'native'.
Updated AGENT_TODO.md to reflect task completion and new priorities.
Updated the Event File data layer to support the 'inc_hosted_file' flag in load and search functions, enabling on-demand retrieval of joined Hosted File metadata.
Refined the data mapping in 'process_ae_obj__event_file_props' to include 'content_type' and strictly controlled which properties are persisted to IndexedDB, adhering to the 'Bite-Sized Data' principle by excluding unneeded backend fields like subdirectory paths.
Enhanced 'get_ae_obj_li_v3' to support generic parameter pass-through for V3 CRUD operations.
Mapped prefixed backend fields 'hosted_file_hash_sha256' and 'hosted_file_size' to flat 'hash_sha256' and 'file_size' properties in the Event File data layer. This resolves component crashes (TypeError: slice on null) by ensuring IndexedDB is populated with valid hash strings.
Updated AGENT_TODO.md to reflect recently completed tasks.
Implemented Svelte 5 callback props (onsuccess, oncancel) for Badge create and upload forms, replacing legacy dispatchers.
Updated the AE Field Editor to accept an optional 'id' prop, resolving property mismatch errors.
Updated the Event Settings page to use the new callback prop interface, clearing type assignment errors reported by 'npm run check'.
Standardized access level hierarchy (super > manager > administrator > trusted) and added hierarchical comparison utilities to 'ae_util'.
Refactored IDAA layout to use an 'Upgrade-Only' permission strategy, preventing context-specific identifications from downgrading global Manager privileges.
Implemented strict gated filtering in the Journal Entry list: hidden and disabled items now correctly require both the appropriate hierarchical role (Trusted/Admin) AND active Edit Mode.
Added 'activity_log' table to Dexie 'ae_core_db' (v4) to support local caching of tracking data.
Implemented 'process_ae_obj__activity_log_props' with robust timestamp fallbacks.
Refactored 'qry__jitsi_report' to follow the Frontier module pattern, ensuring consistent V3 search and local cache synchronization.
Implemented 'Meeting Name (A-Z)' and 'Meeting Name (Z-A)' sorting for Recovery Meetings, including UI dropdown updates and client-side re-sorting logic.
Updated documentation/GUIDE__DEVELOPMENT.md to v1.1 with clarified verification steps and inter-agent coordination protocols.
Minor label cleanup in Journal editor.
Updated '_process_generic_props' in multiple libraries to ensure 'updated' timestamp always falls back to 'created_on' or epoch start, preventing null values from breaking newest-first ordering in IndexedDB.
Aligned Recovery Meetings and Archives list views to use these pre-computed sort keys for consistent UI behavior even when 'updated_on' is null.
Implemented critical security and architectural fixes to align the frontend with the Aether API V3 standard and resolve 403 Forbidden race conditions.
- Unified CRUD Helpers: Updated get, create, update, and delete helpers to use the standard /v3/crud/{obj_type}/{id} paths, ensuring correct backend isolation context.
- Auth Scavenging: Implemented direct localStorage scavenging for 'x-account-id' in core fetch helpers to prevent hydration race conditions in Svelte 5.
- Header Cleanup: Purged redundant 'x-aether-api-token' and fixed misplaced protocol headers in global stores.
- Reliability: Fixed 'Content-Type' typos and standardized kebab-case header normalization.
- Created consolidated AE_Obj_Field_Editor_V3 component using Svelte 5 Runes.
- Standardized on V3 CRUD API (PATCH /v3/crud/{obj_type}/{obj_id}).
- Implemented local state guards to prevent reactivity loops.
- Added support for multiple field types (text, textarea, select, checkbox, tiptap).
- Created a dedicated testing playground with real Demo account data.
- Updated the PROJECT_AE_OBJECT_FIELD_EDITOR_V3_UPGRADE.md plan.
Aligned the Events Badges, Templates, and IDAA Bulletin Board modules with
Aether UI/UX v3 standards by prioritizing semantic String IDs (e.g., event_id,
badge_id) over legacy '_random' variants in API helpers, Dexie processors,
and UI components.
- Refactored badge and template loaders to use clean ID field names.
- Updated search and LiveQuery logic in badge management views.
- Cleaned up unused imports and legacy code in +layout and +page components.
- Standardized ID mapping in generic object processors.
- Improved IDAA post creation UX with autofocus and empty title defaults.
