Stripe wired to the Phase-A mechanism. Live prices verified READ-ONLY; no
Stripe object was created and no payment was run.
B1 PRICE KEY -> ID + BOOT ASSERTION (src/config/stripePrices.js). claim_founder_slot
returns a price KEY; this module is the only place a key becomes a Stripe id, and
it reads env (legacy STRIPE_PRICE_ANALYST/DESK accepted as fallbacks so an existing
deploy keeps working). assertPricesConfigured() is wired into server.js and FAILS
BOOT when any of the four is unset — verified by deleting one: it throws
"BOOT FAILED - unset Stripe price env for: desk_founder". A blank price can no
longer sell at the wrong rate or 503 a customer at checkout.
B2 CHECKOUT CLAIMS BEFORE CREATING THE SESSION. resolveCheckoutPrice previously
called founderSeatsAvailable() — a COUNT read, which WAS the race (two checkouts
at seat 99 both read 99, both got founder). It now calls claim_founder_slot and
uses the returned key. The promo-code bypass is retired: founderCode no longer
influences price or metadata, and getPriceId THROWS if handed a code rather than
silently granting a founder rate. metadata.is_founder is renamed is_founder_audit
and the webhook no longer reads it — caller-supplied metadata must never decide
who pays the lifetime founder price.
TRANSIENT-FAILURE POLICY (a real design call, not a default): if the claim RPC
errors we now fail RETRYABLY (503 claim_failed) instead of silently selling at
standing. Both silent options are irreversible — standing permanently overcharges
someone who was entitled to founder, and granting founder without a slot pushes
past the 100 cap at permanent prices. A full cap is NOT an error and still returns
standing normally, per "never error to the customer": a full cap is a real answer,
a DB blip is not.
B3 WEBHOOK FINALIZES THROUGH THE SINGLE WRITER. checkout.session.completed calls
finalize_founder_slot, which flips user_profiles.founder_pricing (canonical) and
mirrors users.founder_status in the SAME txn, so they cannot drift again (they
already had, 1 vs 0). Verify-after-write re-reads the profile and logs the end
state. If finalize errors, the tier is still set so a PAID customer is never left
unentitled, but no founder flag is guessed.
B4 SIGNATURE VERIFICATION was already present (constructEvent with
STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET + express.raw). The live endpoint exists and is enabled:
https://api.vyndr.app/api/stripe/webhook subscribing checkout.session.completed,
customer.subscription.created/updated/deleted, invoice.payment_succeeded/failed.
VERIFICATION: V1 boot assertion proven by simulation. V2 all four prices retrieved
live and confirmed active with correct amounts and monthly recurrence (14.99 /
24.99 / 44.99 / 59.99) — read-only, nothing created. V3 no code path grants founder
except the claim (greps clean; the legacy helper now throws). V4 the handler reads
customer/subscription/metadata.user_id and calls finalize with signature
verification in place. V5 reset to a pristine 100 free / 0 claimed baseline with
both founder flags at 0.
Secrets live only in .env (0600, gitignored, untracked). A pre-commit scan
confirmed NO tracked file contains the key material.
Floor: 320 suites / 3984 passed, 3 skipped (superseded founder-code tests), web
build exit 0.

FOUNDATION-FIRST re-order, phase 1 (tooling + safety).
BACKUP (highest-severity open item) — INSTALLED, not re-proven.
src/backupScheduler.js runs scripts/backup-db.sh nightly from inside the
API container, armed at boot in server.js. The container already has
SUPABASE_DB_URL, pg_dump and the Supabase route, so deploy == installed:
no host crontab, no Coolify click. Arming is deliberately opt-OUT (armed
whenever SUPABASE_DB_URL exists; BACKUP_CRON=0 kills it) because the S62
design was opt-in and nobody ever opted in — the DB went unbacked every
night for weeks. A failed run pages high-priority ntfy; silence is the
danger with backups.
Durability is the one part still needing a human: the container FS is
ephemeral, so a dump dies on redeploy unless BACKUP_REMOTE (off-box
rsync) or BACKUP_DIR (persistent volume) is set. The scheduler detects
that and pages a WARNING at boot rather than letting an undurable backup
read as "backed up". Runbook rewritten to lead with the code path.
MANUAL REGRADE TRIGGER — scripts/run-snapshot.js, runnable via
docker exec with no VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY and no new HTTP surface. Runs the
SAME snapshotService.runSnapshot the cron runs (including the team-stats
refresh that powers opp_rank_stat), supports `all` and `--settle`, and
prints the grade/confidence distribution plus p_win/ev_pct presence —
which is the thing you actually want when verifying a grading change.
ACCESS BLOCKER, logged honestly in specs/model-train.md: there is no
VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY in the local .env and SSH to the box times out from
WSL2, so I can neither curl the internal endpoints (which already exist
from S45) nor docker exec. The trigger is built and correct but only Kev
can run it until a key or SSH access exists. This is the highest-leverage
unblock for phases 2 and 3, which both need on-demand regrade+settle to
verify anything.
Also logged the standing cautions: CLV ledger stays private until
backtest-proven; "self-improving model" is unsupported marketing until
the loop closes; the engine is MLB/WNBA-calibrated and NFL/NBA/soccer
need their own calibration before the hub grades them (scaling gate).
Suite 277/3300 green.

ROOT CAUSE: the Dockerfile copied src/poller/scripts/supabase but NOT
content/. mediaEngine.js read content/stark-lines.json with an unguarded
module-load readFileSync; ENOENT in the image threw at require time, and
via app.js → routes/desk → deskService → mediaEngine that crashed the
ENTIRE API at boot. The Coolify healthcheck rolled back to the last
healthy image (4d2b27d), so every deploy since 219167e silently served a
14-hour-old build — S11 live tracking, S6 API code, the settlement boot
line, and SNAPSHOT_EXPECTED_INTERVAL were all merged but NOT running.
FIX (one train):
1. Dockerfile COPYs content/ into the runner image.
2. mediaEngine: stark-lines.json is OPTIONAL (garnish, never load-bearing)
— loadStark() try/catch → {} → posts render without the Stark kicker,
never a crash. Belt AND suspenders with #1.
3. src/preflight.js (§A4): boot prints '[preflight] OK' or 'DEGRADED'
naming exactly what content/env is missing — before the healthcheck
can fail silently. Run first in server.js.
4. Full fragility sweep: mediaEngine was the ONLY unguarded module-load
file read; coachSignals (config/coaches.json) was already lazy +
try/catch + copied. No others.
Verified: requiring app.js + deskService + mediaEngine with
stark-lines.json ABSENT now boots clean (reproduced the exact prod
failure). 2757 -> 2763 tests (tests/unit/bootResilience.test.js).

The on-demand "Read" grade model is RETIRED. A scheduled pipeline pre-grades the
slate, locks grades to the line, tracks movement; the dashboard shows them already
there. Orchestrates existing services — nothing rebuilt.
- snapshotService.runSnapshot(sport): getOdds → gradeAndCacheSlate → classify
archetype per player → lock gradedAt → line deltas vs previous snapshot → write
snapshot:{sport}:latest/previous + grades:{sport} → ticker events. Fully
injectable, zero-network unit tests. runAllSnapshots = cron entrypoint.
- Internal trigger POST /api/internal/snapshot/:sport + /all (requireInternalAuth).
In-process cron (SNAPSHOT_CRON=1, UTC 14,19,22,1,3) in server.js, no new dep.
- Public reads: GET /api/snapshot/:sport (cache-only) + GET /api/ticker (merges
TICKER_MANUAL pins) + Next proxies.
- GameCard swap: live Slate renders vyndr/GameCard (legacy kept for types only),
overlays locked grades onto game props → player name once + archetype badge +
"Graded Xh ago at -115 · Current 2.5 · ▲ TOWARD +1.0". Ungraded → "Awaiting next
scan", NO Read button. On-demand onGrade flow deleted.
- Ticker polls /api/ticker every 30s, graceful fallback to hardcoded items.
- NBA/WNBA: espnStatsAdapter free fallback (defensive parse → found:false on shape
mismatch) wired into resolvePlayerStats after the offline Python service.
Env: PROPLINE_API_KEY_1/2/3, VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY, SNAPSHOT_CRON=1, TICKER_MANUAL.
Backend 2061 -> 2100 tests (+39), 173 suites. Web build clean (exit 0).
