Replace em-dashes in user-facing copy across the server-rendered pages,
static frontend views, and the strings the app injects at runtime, using
colons, commas, parentheses or full stops as the context wants. Data
placeholder glyphs (a lone "—" for a missing reading) are left alone,
since a hyphen there reads as a minus sign in temperature columns.
Also tighten the high-visibility surfaces (home hero and meta, about,
privacy, city and records ledes, glossary blurbs) toward a plainer,
more direct voice while keeping every factual claim intact.

A failed web push (e.g. VAPID key mismatch -> 401/403) was swallowed: /push/test still
returned 202 and the UI showed 'Sent', while the only trace was a journald WARNING.
Now: push.send logs failures to the errors JSONL (phase=push) so they show up like other
errors; /push/test returns a 'failed' count; and the 'Send test' button reports 'No
device' / 'Sent' / 'Failed' from the real result. Document the VAPID env vars (missing
from thermograph.env.example) and how to pin/diagnose them.
Put Alerts in the main navigation (after Climate) across the interactive pages
and the SEO/climate pages, so it's a discoverable entry point rather than only the
header bell. The bell stays; this is an additional way in.
The signed-out /alerts gate now leads with a clear "What are weather alerts?"
explainer — what they do, how the percentile threshold works, and an example —
above the sign-in / create-account button, so visitors understand the feature
before signing in.
The extra nav item pushed the inline header past ~800px into a horizontal
scrollbar; trim the tab padding in the 641–1000px band so the row fits again
(phones already collapse into the hamburger).
Make the app installable and deliver existing alert notifications as OS
push, alongside the in-app bell.
Backend:
- PushSubscription model (per-device endpoint + keys, owned by a user) and
register/unregister/test endpoints under /api/v2/push, cookie-auth scoped
to the user like the subscription routes.
- push.py: VAPID key management (env -> data/vapid.json -> generated) and a
pywebpush send helper that reports gone endpoints for pruning. No DB coupling.
- notify.py: after creating an in-app Notification, dispatch Web Push to the
user's devices (guarded — a push failure never affects the in-app write;
endpoints reported gone are pruned).
- Serve the .webmanifest with the correct media type.
Frontend:
- manifest.webmanifest + 192/maskable icons; <link rel="manifest"> on all pages.
- sw.js: push + notificationclick handlers (push-only; no fetch caching, so it
doesn't fight the existing IndexedDB cache). Registered globally in nav.js in
secure contexts.
- push-client.js + a "Notifications on this device" toggle and test-send on the
/alerts page, subscribing through the existing cookie-aware apiFetch.
Push and service workers require a secure context, so this is active over HTTPS
(or http://localhost) and cleanly no-ops on a plain-HTTP LAN origin.
* Add account system foundation: email/password auth with cookie sessions
Introduce the app's first authoritative, user-owned data in a separate
data/accounts.sqlite (SQLAlchemy), kept apart from the disposable derived-cache
DB. Wire fastapi-users for email/password signup, cookie-based login/logout, and
a session-check endpoint, backed by a database session strategy so logins survive
restarts and are revocable.
- db.py: async (aiosqlite) + sync SQLAlchemy engines over accounts.sqlite, WAL +
foreign keys, create_db_and_tables().
- models.py: User, AccessToken, Subscription, Notification tables.
- users.py: pwdlib hashing, HttpOnly cookie transport (path-scoped, SameSite=Lax,
Secure via env), DatabaseStrategy sessions, current-user dependencies.
- schemas.py: user + subscription + notification Pydantic models.
- app.py: mount auth/register/users routers on v2, create tables at startup.
- Pin fastapi-users[sqlalchemy]/aiosqlite; ignore data/accounts.sqlite*.
* Add account header entry and auth modal (frontend)
account.js self-injects a header entry (following the units.js pattern) that
shows a Sign in button when logged out and an account menu when logged in, plus
an auth modal reusing the existing .mp-overlay/.mp-modal chrome for email/password
sign-in and account creation. A shared apiFetch helper sends the same-origin
cookie for authed calls; exported getUser/openAuth/onAuthChange back later phases.
Imported by every page entry module. On narrow screens the entry collapses to an
icon-only button so it doesn't crowd the title.
Enforce an 8-character minimum password in the user manager.
* Add subscription CRUD API and the alerts management page
Backend api_accounts.py adds user-scoped, cookie-authenticated endpoints to
create/list/update/delete subscriptions (and the notification reads used next):
POST snaps lat/lon to a grid cell, resolves a label, and rejects a duplicate
location+kind with 409; PATCH/DELETE are ownership-checked (404 on mismatch).
Mounted on the v2 prefix.
Frontend subscriptions.js + subscriptions.html serve the /alerts page: a sign-in
gate when logged out, an add flow that reuses the shared map picker and an editor
modal (kind, watched metrics, 95-99 percentile, two-sided), and a card list with
inline threshold/active edits and remove. Reachable from the account menu.
* Add background subscription evaluation engine
notify.py runs a daemon thread that periodically evaluates every active
subscription: it groups them by grid cell, reads history from the parquet cache
only (never spends archive quota) plus the hourly recent/forecast bundle, and
grades candidate days with the existing grading.grade_day. A watched metric that
lands at or beyond the threshold percentile fires a 'high' alert; a two-sided
subscription also fires 'low' for the symmetric cold/calm/dry tail (precip stays
one-directional). Observed subscriptions look at the last few recorded days,
forecast subscriptions at the coming week.
Two guards keep it quiet: a UNIQUE(subscription, event_date, metric, direction,
kind) constraint dedups repeat events, and a per-subscription weekly cap
(last_notified_at) limits each alert to one notification per 7 days. The loop
tolerates a bad cell or an upstream rate limit without aborting the pass. Started
and stopped from the app lifespan; gated by THERMOGRAPH_ENABLE_NOTIFIER.
* Add in-app notification center (header bell)
Extend account.js with a notification bell beside the account menu: an unread
badge, a dropdown listing recent notifications (title, body, relative time), a
per-item mark-read on click, and a Mark all read action, all through the
cookie-authed notifications API. Unread state refreshes on open and polls every
two minutes while signed in; polling stops on sign-out. Styled to match the app,
responsive down to mobile.
* Harden accounts: expired-session cleanup, engine tests, ops docs
- notify.py sweeps expired login sessions (access tokens past their lifetime)
once per evaluation pass.
- Add hermetic unit tests for the evaluation engine's trigger detection (high/low
tails, precip one-directional, normal = no trigger) and notification wording.
- Document accounts.sqlite (authoritative, back it up), the single-worker
requirement for the in-process evaluator, and the new env vars in DEPLOY.md.
