* Centralize filesystem paths in a single module
Add paths.py, which resolves the repo root once and derives the cache,
accounts DB, logs, templates, frontend and bundled-city-data locations
from it. Replace the 13 per-module `dirname(__file__)/..` anchors with
references to it, so a module's location no longer determines where the
app reads its data. Env overrides (accounts DB, VAPID, IndexNow) are
unchanged; every resolved path is byte-identical to before.
Groundwork for moving modules into packages without re-pointing paths.

* Split the backend into domain packages
Group the flat backend modules into packages that mirror their concerns:
data/ climate, grading, scoring, grid, places, cities,
city_events, store
web/ app, views, homepage, content, schemas
notifications/ notify, digest, push, mailer, discord,
discord_interactions, discord_link
accounts/ models, users, api_accounts, db
core/ metrics, singleton, audit
Intra-project imports are rewritten to the package-qualified form. The
entry scripts (indexnow, warm_cities, migrate, gen_cities, gen_flavor)
and paths.py stay at the backend/ root, and backend/app.py becomes a
shim re-exporting web.app:app so the launch target stays `app:app` —
run.sh, the systemd units, and CI need no change.
Verified: full suite (318) passes, `uvicorn app:app` boots and serves
the home/SEO/static/API surfaces, and every root script imports clean.

Adds Discord DM as a notification channel beside web push, for users who linked
their Discord account and opted in. It rides the same fan-out point as push
(_dispatch_discord next to _dispatch_push in the notifier pass), reusing the
transport-agnostic title/body/deep-link, and stays best-effort and isolated: the
in-app row is already committed, and push/email remain the fallback for anyone
Discord can't reach (its DM rule requires a shared server / user install).
- discord.py: send_dm() opens the DM channel then posts an embed via the bot token,
with one capped 429 retry. Absolute deep links (a DM can't resolve a relative
path the way the service worker can).
- notify.py: _dispatch_discord() delivers only when the subscriber has a linked
discord_id and discord_dm on; no-ops entirely when no bot token is configured.
- models.py: User.discord_dm (opt-in flag) + migration 002. Linking sets it True
(an active opt-in); a new POST /discord/dm mutes it without unlinking, and unlink
clears it. Exposed on UserRead; account popover shows an on/off toggle.

Lets a signed-in user connect their Discord account (OAuth2 identify), storing the
Discord user id that a later feature (DM alerts) will deliver to. Standard
authorization-code flow, all server-side:
- backend/discord_link.py: /discord/link/start redirects to Discord's consent
screen; /discord/link/callback exchanges the code, reads the Discord user id, and
stores it; /discord/unlink forgets it. The `state` is signed with the app auth
secret (stdlib hmac, no new dependency) and carries the Thermograph user id, so a
callback can't be replayed or bound to another account. Every route requires an
active session, so linking acts on whoever is actually logged in.
- models.py: User.discord_id (unique, nullable). schemas.py exposes it on UserRead
so the frontend can show link state.
- app.py: the router under /api/v2/discord.
- account.js: a "Link Discord" / "Unlink Discord" control in the account popover.
- deploy/migrations/001-user-discord-id.sql: the manual column add for the existing
prod accounts DB. This project has no Alembic — create_all only makes missing
tables, so an added column needs a hand-applied migration (documented in-file).
- env example: THERMOGRAPH_DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET + the redirect to register.

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.
