An expired code is as dead as a used one and just as accounted for, so it is now
deletable. The rule the code enforces is the one that matters: a code that could
still be redeemed is never deleted, because that takes it off the list without
taking it out of anybody's inbox — the holder keeps something that looks valid,
it quietly stops working, and nothing is left to say who had it.
One condition, shared by the single delete and the bulk clear:
(used_at IS NOT NULL OR (revoked_at IS NULL AND expires_at <= NOW()))
Written that way rather than as "used OR past its date" because the second form
also catches a revoked code whose date has since passed — a row the list still
labels revoked and offers no delete on, so the button and the query would have
disagreed about the same row.
Revoked codes keep their rows. Revoking records a decision somebody took, and a
handful of them is not the clutter a pile of expired codes is.
Verified against the live database across every state: active refused, used
deleted, expired deleted, revoked refused, and revoked-with-a-past-date refused
rather than slipping through as expired.

The delete button was offered on every invitation regardless of state, and the
query behind it deleted any row it was given. Deleting an unused code takes it
off the list without taking it out of anybody's inbox: the person still holds
something that looks like a valid invitation, it silently stops working, and
there is no longer a record of who it went to or why. Revoke is what stops a
live code — it leaves the row behind, marked.
So the delete is now for spent codes only, in three places rather than one: the
query carries AND used_at IS NOT NULL, the route answers 409 with the reason
instead of pretending the row is missing, and the button is rendered only on a
used row.
A "Clear N used" control alongside, since the complaint was clutter and clearing
them one at a time is not much of an answer. Same rule — nothing unused or
revoked is touched — and it confirms first, because it is still a delete.
The bulk route is declared before /invites/:id, or Express reads "used" as an id.
Verified against the live database: deleting an unused invitation is refused and
the row survives, deleting a used one works, the bulk clear removes only used
ones, and the unused probe row was still there afterwards.

Generated a deck with ds-deepseek-v4-flash and rendered it to look at. The model
produced exactly the six headings it was asked for; the deck came out with eight
slides. The extra ones were pandoc's, not the model's.
Two rules, both found by rendering rather than reading:
- pandoc splits a slide after a table. Anything following one becomes a new
slide with no title — that was the stray "Key differentials to consider:"
slide floating with no heading.
- A table with no blank line before it is not parsed as a table at all. It
renders as literal pipe characters in the preceding paragraph.
And one that was visible on the slide itself: a nested ordered list inside a
bullet ran off the bottom.
None of these are the model failing. A cheap model writes perfectly good slide
markdown — bold, italics, nested lists and a table with a subscript all came
through correctly. It just needs to be told the shape the renderer wants.

pptxgenjs is gone, and with it 269 lines of hand-rolled markdown parsing.
It stretched every image. Reading the slide XML it emitted shows why: it writes
the target box verbatim with <a:stretch/> and a no-op srcRect, so a 200x800
image handed an 11.8x3.9 box came out 1:4 squashed to 3:1. It could not do
better — it never measures an image, and its own getSizeFromImage is commented
out and marked "currently unused", reaching for a package called sizeof that
does not exist. pandoc measures them: a 300x175 source renders at aspect 1.714
and a 160x360 at 0.445, verified by rendering the deck to PDF and looking at it.
Tables, ordered and unordered lists, bold, italic and subscripts all come out
natively, and the fonts, palette and slide layouts come from
assets/learning/slides-reference.pptx. Design now lives in that file: restyling
the decks means editing it in PowerPoint, not editing this route.
Only images the requester owns can reach a deck. pandoc resolves an image link
against the filesystem, so a markdown link naming any local path would read that
file into the presentation. Images are fetched by id through the ownership
check, written into a per-request temporary directory under names we choose, and
every image link that did not resolve is removed rather than passed through. The
directory is removed in a finally block, and the conversion has a 60s timeout so
it cannot hang a request.
pandoc is in the image rather than a sidecar, because an export must not fail
for reasons outside this container. It costs 197MB (307 -> 504).
Removing pptxgenjs also removed image-size, and with it both high-severity
advisories — GHSA-w3rx-r6r6-pgpr and GHSA-5p2g-fcmc-qvqq, ICNS/JXL/HEIF parser
denial of service, ranged <=2.0.2 with no fixed release to upgrade to. npm audit
goes from 2 high and 2 moderate to 2 moderate.

Every generated image in an exported deck was distorted. PowerPoint scales an
image to whatever extent it is given, and the export handed it the content box
verbatim. pptxgenjs has a `sizing: contain` option that looks like it solves
this; reading the emitted slide XML shows it does not — a 200x800 image in an
11.8x3.9 box came out as cx=10789920 cy=3566160 with <a:stretch/>, stretched
from 1:4 to 3:1. It cannot do better: it never measures the image, and its own
getSizeFromImage is commented out and marked "currently unused".
So the export measures the image itself and hands PowerPoint an extent that
already has the right shape, centred in the space available. Verified: a 200x800
image now places 0.97x3.90 and a 4x3 places 5.20x3.90, both matching their
source aspect exactly, neither overflowing. An image that cannot be measured
keeps the old behaviour rather than failing the export.
image-size becomes a real dependency rather than one borrowed transitively, and
an override collapses it to a single copy — pptxgenjs declares it but the string
appears in none of its four shipped bundles, so npm was placing a second copy in
the production image that nothing could load.
Its ICNS, JXL and HEIF parsers have open denial-of-service advisories against
every published version (GHSA-w3rx-r6r6-pgpr, GHSA-5p2g-fcmc-qvqq, both ranged
<=2.0.2), so there is no release to upgrade to. They are disabled instead:
this application measures PNG, JPEG, WebP and GIF and nothing else. An ICNS
buffer is now refused and falls back to the box rather than entering the parser.

Removed at the owner's request, entirely rather than switched off: the route's
allow-list, anonymous identity and flag lookup; the client's entry path, the
authFetch exception that let four endpoints out without an account, and the
workspace guard; the CSS, the in-page note, the admin flag and its save/load;
the test file and the assertions elsewhere that pinned it. Both settings rows
are deleted from app_settings.
Two things were checked rather than assumed on the way out. Removing the
anonymous identity collapsed every `if (!req.user.preview)` branch to its
authenticated side, so image tools, audit logging and citation storage now run
unconditionally — which is what they did before preview existed. And the route's
gate went back to a bare router.use(authMiddleware), which on a /api mount gates
every path below it in server.js; it is scoped to /clinical-assistant again, the
guard test catches it either way.
Verified after deploy: signed out, status, examples and chat all refuse with
401; signed in, chat still answers with 8 sources; extensions, encounters,
documents and admin remain shut.

Citation quality
- A citation naming a source that never came back is never rendered as a
link, so it appears as plain text and nobody learns it happened. It is now
measured on the server, where the answer and the sources both exist, so it
is seen whether or not a browser rendered it.
- Four Prometheus counters feed a Grafana dashboard (Ped-AI Citation
Quality): answers, citations written, answers affected, and individual
unresolved markers. Only answers with at least one unresolved citation are
stored, with the question and the titles retrieval returned, so an operator
can judge whether retrieval came back thin or the model over-cited. Rows
expire after 30 days: this is a quality signal, not a transcript log.
- Both answer paths are covered. /chat/stream is normal; /chat is the
fallback the client uses when streaming fails, so auditing only the first
would have hidden exactly the answers produced under failure.
- The tracker is resolved on demand and allowed to be absent. Seven test
files load this route with a hand-built list of permitted imports, and
adding a hard dependency would mean editing all seven — and the eighth
written later would break. Observation must never be able to fail an
answer, so a missing module simply means no tracking.
- Metric registration reuses an already-registered counter, because this
module can legitimately load twice in one process.
SSO settings on mobile
- Six rows were laid out inline: flex with a 160px label and an input that
would not shrink, so on a phone the row was wider than the screen with
nothing to scroll and no way to reach the rest. They use .admin-row now,
which already stacks below 640px. Verified at 390px and 360px: nothing
off-screen, no sideways overflow.

With more than one admin, every setting in the panel was editable by all of
them — prompts, model policy, retrieval budgets, SMTP, email templates.
ADMIN_LOCKDOWN separates running the service from changing how it behaves.
It is an environment variable on purpose: a setting could be switched off by
the very admin it restrains, so lifting this needs host access and a restart.
The server is the control. One gate refuses configuration writes rather than
a check in each of the fifteen write routes, because that list grows and a
route added later would quietly miss it. Reads always pass — lockdown hides
nothing. Day-to-day operation stays available: invitations, announcements,
registration, feature flags, and the test endpoints, which persist nothing.
A setting invented later is locked until someone deliberately makes it
editable, rather than defaulting to open.
The panel disables what it cannot save and says why, but that is courtesy;
the refusal is what enforces it.
Two things this taught me, both fixed: my first version painted the panel
from an IIFE, which the module conventions forbid, and fetched the whole
config a second time just to read one flag — breaking the test that pins
admin loaders firing exactly once. The state now rides on the invites
response the panel already requests.

registration_enabled was a single switch: open to anyone, or closed to
everyone. This adds the setting an operator actually wants in between — open
to people you invited.
A code is single-use, expires (7 days by default, 90 maximum), and can be
revoked or deleted. It is stored hashed with only its last four characters
kept, because an invite grants account creation and a database dump should
not hand someone a working one. The code is readable exactly once, in the
response that creates it.
The claim is a single conditional UPDATE carrying every condition, so two
registrations racing the same code cannot both succeed. It happens after the
account exists, so a code is never spent on a failed registration — and if
the race is lost, the just-created account is removed rather than left behind
as a free registration. The rejection never says which of the four reasons
applied; distinguishing them would tell someone probing codes which guesses
were closer.
Codes avoid I, L, O and U so they survive being read aloud or copied off a
screen, and matching ignores case and separators.
The sign-up field appears only when the server says a code is required. The
admin card creates, lists, revokes and deletes, and carries the toggle.
Verified against the live database: create, claim, second claim refused,
unknown code refused, revoking a used code refused, delete. 684 tests pass.

It documented 18 of 67, so anyone setting up a deployment had to find the
rest by reading source — including CORS_ORIGINS, REDIS_URL, NODE_ENV and the
whole Clinical Assistant retrieval group. Each entry now shows the default
the code falls back to, so an unset line reads as "this default" rather than
"broken".
Also documents the OpenBao switch: the entrypoint only fetches secrets when
OPENBAO_ADDR is set, a compose or env_file value always beats the OpenBao
copy, and turning it off means unsetting that one variable and putting the
keys here — with the command to list the key names without printing values.
A test now derives the set of variables from source, so this cannot drift
again.

Three S3 configurations had grown separately — S3_* for documents,
GENERATED_IMAGES_S3_* for images, and AUDIO_BACKUPS_S3_* after them — with
different key names and their own client construction. That is why moving
storage meant hunting through several files.
src/utils/objectStorage.js now resolves settings for any purpose: its own
variables first, then the shared S3_* ones, with a per-purpose bucket name
(S3_BUCKET_AUDIO_BACKUPS). One endpoint plus three bucket names is enough
for the whole app, and a purpose that needs its own account still overrides
everything. Audio backups and documents use it; generated images keeps its
own tested storage module, whose variable names the resolver already
understands.
Nothing existing has to change: S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID, S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and
the AWS_* fallbacks still resolve, and path-style addressing keeps each
purpose's previous default — off for documents, so a Backblaze endpoint
behaves as before, on where a custom endpoint implies MinIO. A _FILE
credential now always beats an inline one, so a mounted secret cannot be
shadowed by an inherited environment variable.

- adminMilestones was reached only because adminConfig is mounted on
/api/admin ahead of it and guards the whole path. adminMiddleware checks
req.user.role and nothing else, so it failed closed (403) rather than
open — but on mount order, not intent. It now states the requirement,
with a test covering all four admin routers.
- TODO.md records the whole audit: what was verified working (live
transcription round trip, voice mode wiring), what was fixed, the two
advisories that are unreachable and why, and the CI/CD and Kubernetes
work worth doing before scaling out.
Security review found nothing else exploitable: parameterised SQL
throughout (the one interpolated table name is allowlisted), CORS refuses
to start open in production, JWT_SECRET refuses to start unset in
production, rate limits on /api and each auth route, a real CSP, and no
secrets in the repo.
