The landing hero reads the snapshot from Redis DIRECTLY via heroPropService,
so it never passed through routes/snapshot.js and was still serving model_odds,
ev_pct, value and takeable to anonymous visitors after the first fix. Same
strip, same tier resolution, same private-cache rule for authenticated callers;
the Next proxy now forwards the bearer token.
PRODUCT CONSEQUENCE, FLAGGED RATHER THAN BURIED: the landing hero is served to
anonymous visitors, so it now renders BOOK and FAIR with the model leg LOCKED
instead of the full triplet it showed this morning. That follows the stated
free-tier rule exactly, but it does trade a strong marketing moment (VALUE
+21.1% VS FAIR on the shop window) for consistency of the gate. Reversing is
one line — add 'model_price' to the free tier in src/config/tiers.js, or
special-case the hero route — and is a product call, not a correctness one.
Tests 3557 passed / 291 suites, web build exit 0.

PHASE 0.5 GATE — the three checks, and one correction.
`fairLine` does not exist. Zero hits across src/ and web/src. Option A as
written had no referent, but it resolves better than feared: `fair_odds` is
already a real de-vigged American price on every graded snapshot row, so there
is nothing to derive.
Gate 1 (is it a price): PASS. fair_odds is American odds from
impliedProbToAmerican inside devigTwoWay; fair_prob is the probability. Both
distinct from `line`, the stat threshold.
Gate 2 (numeric match): PASS, 8/8 exact. Recomputed fair_odds and fair_prob
independently from the stored raw over/under prices; every value matched the
stored one to the integer and to 3dp. Same de-vig, same numbers the component
was proven against.
Gate 3 (poison independence): PASS, and proven on the quarantined cohort
itself. devigTwoWay's inputs are (over_odds, under_odds) — market prices
only, no model term is reachable. The 8 rows recomputed above are all
wrong_opponent_grade rows, and their fair prices reproduce exactly from the
market. The poison is in the grade, not the price. Quarantine therefore
suppresses the MODEL leg only; the fair leg stands, as designed.
THE LEAK WAS REAL AND ALREADY LIVE. GET /api/snapshot/:sport is public and
unauthenticated, and it was serving model_odds, p_win, ev_pct, value and
takeable to anonymous callers on every graded row — 25 of 25 on the live wnba
board. The Session-66 gate on /api/analyze was bypassed entirely by this
endpoint.
The strip covers more than model_odds, because model_odds is not the only way
to read the model price: p_win IS the price in another base, and ev_pct is
INVERTIBLE — ev is a function of p_win and book_odds, and book_odds is public,
so leaving ev behind hands the price over. All five model-derived fields go.
book_odds, fair_odds, fair_prob, overround and devig_method stay on every tier:
the fair leg is never the paywall. Rows that keep a book+fair pair are stamped
model_price_locked so a gated price is never mistaken for a missing one.
Tier comes from resolveTierFromRequest, which reads a bearer token when one is
present and otherwise returns 'free'. It FAILS CLOSED on every error path, so a
resolution failure can only ever withhold the price. The response now varies by
entitlement, so the /:sport handler downgrades Cache-Control to private for
authenticated callers and the browser proxy forwards the bearer token —
otherwise a CDN could hand a paid payload to an anonymous viewer, or every
request would look anonymous and paid users would lose the leg.
READ CARD — a manual scan carries no market. The request is {player, stat,
line, direction}, so the engine has no over/under prices to de-vig and
book_odds/fair_odds are legitimately absent from its response; that is why the
triplet was hidden there. lookupSnapshotPrices recovers them from the
pre-graded snapshot via the same cache-only read this route already performs
for locked odds and team. The join is exact on player + stat + line + side
(fair_odds is side-specific), and returns nothing unless book and fair are BOTH
present — a user-chosen line the board never graded has no market attached, so
the triplet stays hidden rather than borrowing another line's price.
FAIR-LEG ABSENCE, measured before shipping: 636 graded rows, 636 with book,
636 with fair, 0 one-sided. Absence rate 0.0%. The hero number is not a
sometimes-number on current data.
Tests 3556 passed / 291 suites, web build exit 0.

The billing portal is fully configured in Stripe (cancellations, plan
switching, invoice history) and the Express endpoint (POST /api/stripe/portal)
existed, but nothing in the UI linked to it. Added the Next proxy
(app/api/stripe/portal) and a "Manage billing →" button in the profile billing
section (paid tiers) that mints a portal session and redirects. Kev still
activates the hosted portal in the Stripe dashboard; this is the app-side link.
Dunning verification (item 6): cancel-on-exhaustion is correctly wired — Smart
Retries exhausting cancels the subscription → customer.subscription.deleted →
webhook sets a 48h grace → middleware/gracePeriod.checkGracePeriod downgrades
tier to free in both users + user_profiles after the grace expires. See the
report for one nuance (the 48h grace on the FIRST payment_failed is shorter than
Stripe's 2-week retry window — self-correcting via subscription.updated, but
worth a product decision).

The pricing Desk showcase hardcoded an alt-line ladder (1.5 A +7.1% / 2.5 A+
+11.4% / 4.5 C -3.8%), QUARTER-KELLY 2.4%, and PARLAY φ 0.34 — a mocked demo
selling something we weren't proving.
- deskShowcaseService reads the pre-graded snapshot for a real A/B prop's
alt-line ladder (prefers the one with the most grade variation — the most
compelling real example). Edge per rung shows only when it's a plausible
market value; the inflated (model-line)/line artifact on small lines is
guarded to "—" rather than shown as a fake +91%.
- PARLAY φ is now REAL: the model's same-team correlation (0.34, mirroring the
frontend parlayMath team constant) computed for TWO REAL same-team legs,
named. No real same-team pair on the board → the tile hides, never an
invented number.
- QUARTER-KELLY tile is REMOVED: the snapshot has no odds, so a real
quarter-Kelly % can't be computed here — a fabricated 2.4% is worse than
nothing. Kelly stays a real in-app Desk feature; the showcase just doesn't
fake it.
- DeskShowcase is now a client component fetching /api/desk-showcase; when the
board has no real ladder the whole visuals column hides (real-or-hidden, same
law as the hero). The pitch copy is unchanged.

The landing hero was a static Jokic "Example" card with a name-length pick and a
hardcoded A- 73% +6.2% fallback. Now it's deterministic and live:
- heroPropService.pickHeroProp reads the pre-graded snapshot and selects the
prop with the LARGEST |projection - line| gap among A/B grades (conviction,
not noise) — the read where VYNDR disagrees most with the market, the card
that makes a stranger argue. No curation, no grading (reads cache → no API
credits). GET /api/hero-prop (backend) + repointed Next proxy.
- The card shows the disagreement EXPLICITLY: the book's line vs VYNDR's model,
side by side (model in green), with the real grade timestamp ("Graded 2:14
PM"). The EXAMPLE chip is gone.
- Empty slate → the MOST RECENT real graded read (flagged "LATEST READ", real
date). Nothing cached → { available:false } and the card HIDES. No
hand-written fallback — the Jokic card is deleted. Survives a dead night: a
live rule shows tonight's real MLB read, never a phantom July NBA card.
7 service tests lock the rule (max-gap, A/B gate, projection/line required,
empty→recent, hidden, cross-sport). colorContract updated to the new
disagreement display. Change-affected suites green, web build exit 0.

ClaimMeter rendered a fabricated "47 / 100 CLAIMED" (a hardcoded default; the
comment even said "Cosmetic conversion driver… Static here"). Now:
- GET /api/founders/count counts ONLY real paying founders — user_profiles
where founder_pricing = true AND subscription_status = 'active' (the
Stripe-webhook-synced mirror, so we never hammer the Stripe API). Cached 5
min in Redis on top of that.
- If the source is unavailable (Supabase unconfigured, query error, column not
migrated, client throws) the endpoint returns { available: false } and the
ClaimMeter renders NOTHING — counter and progress bar both hidden. We never
fall back to a number.
- A low real count is shown honestly (0 → "0 / 100"); the truth is the feature.
Next proxy at app/api/founders/count. 6 route tests cover real count, low
count, error/unconfigured/throw → hidden, and cache-hit. Suite 271/3260 green,

Fixes the three DESIGN-SPEC Part 4 + #17 audit findings.
1. React #418 hydration mismatch (landing → dashboard entry). The
`maybeSignedIn` value was computed in a useState INITIALIZER that reads
localStorage during render: server (no window) → false → emits the
marketing tree; a signed-in visitor's first CLIENT render → true → emits
the loading placeholder. Whole-subtree server/client mismatch → React
discarded and re-rendered the page. Deferred behind a mounted flag so the
first client render matches the server; the stored-session check flips
post-mount. SSR HTML is no longer discarded.
2. Loading walls → skeletons. New tokenized Skeleton primitive
(.vyndr-skeleton, reduced-motion-safe via the global rule). Swapped into
every text-wall loader: dashboard slate load ("Loading the slate…"), /desk
("Assembling the pack…"), /ledger ("Loading…"), scan ("Loading the model…"),
and the landing redirect placeholder. No bare text loader remains.
3. scan→ledger persistence. Root cause: the scan page read its bearer token
from localStorage['sb-token'] — a key written ONLY by the OAuth callback —
so email/password users posted /api/scan anonymously and the ledger write
(gated on an authed user) was silently skipped. Now uses the authoritative
session.access_token (matching the ledger read path). Extracted the row
builder to web/src/lib/ledgerRow.js (shared, testable).
Tests: +17 (scanLedgerPersistence write→mine round-trip + scope + idempotency;
ds1SpeedTrust hydration/skeleton/persistence source invariants). Full suite

4.1 ROOT CAUSE of 'Ohtani returns nothing': no backend
/api/players/search existed (MLB 404'd; NBA/WNBA hit the offline
Python service). New Express route + mlbStatsAdapter.matchPlayers —
canonical nameKey fuzzy match (exact > last-name prefix > folded
substring). LIVE-VERIFIED vs the real 1,299-player list: Ohtani /
Aaron Judge / Sánchez / sanchez / Chisholm Jr all resolve; accented
and unaccented return identical results. Non-MLB matches the
platform's cached names (rosterlogs + grades), cache-only.
4.2 Reveal choreography per §7: analyzing steps → DECLASSIFIED stamp →
90ms-staggered context panels (entrance floors visible per the
Phase-0 rule); prefers-reduced-motion skips straight to the card.
4.3 PRIOR READS chips on scan results — the model's public ledger
history for the player (deferred-render, outcomes + pending, never
invented). /api/ledger/model gains ?player= on entries.
4.4 Parlay Lab: humanized stat labels via the ONE shared formatter
(lib/gradeAdapter.statLabel); 1-leg provisional grade ('Leg grade:
B — add a leg for the combined read'); discoverable entry — Nav
'Parlay Lab' item opens the drawer via window.__openParlay, and the
open drawer now renders an honest empty state at 0 legs.

Overnight sprint for the Saturday 10 AM ET deploy gate — day one of the
public ledger record locks against freshly posted lines.
Task A — ledger team/opponent (migration 020, applied at 0 rows):
populated in both write paths from the real feed; opponent only when the
player's team matches a game participant (never guessed). Roadmap: Phase
4.5 WNBA ESPN-boxscore settlement (due ~Jul 24) + Phase 5 per-tier
calibration logged.
Task B — work-order 1.6 CLOSED (canonical player keys):
- searchPlayer resolves via nameKey; the old matcher deleted accents
("Sanchez" with acute -> "snchez") and substring-guessed onto the WRONG
player (the mismatched last-10 bug). Ambiguous -> null, never guess.
- Slate JOIN INVARIANT: a graded prop whose player's real team isn't in
the game is dropped (TB player can't render under MIL@PIT) — locked by
tests that fail the suite on regression.
- grades:{sport} TTL 2h -> 6h (expired between 5h cron gaps — the real
cause of /team "No active props" for slate players).
Task C — Phase 2 slate UX: tabs are THE filter (URL ?sport=, deep-linkable,
duplicate legacy tablist removed); cards cap at 6 graded props sorted
A+->F with ALL N READS in-place expander; waiting states show the real
next pipeline run ("Grades post ~6:00 PM ET").
Task D — Phase 3 mobile P0: root cause of vanished 390px nav was HIDE_ON
including '/' (landing had zero navigation) — fixed; html/body overflow-x
contained; GAME LINES collapses to best-line summary + "N BOOKS" expander
below 640px; venue drops before time/pitchers ever truncate.
Live verification: raw ESPN today STILL returns the Jun 13 NYK@SA Finals

ledger_entries is live (migration 019 applied to prod, RLS + NULLS NOT
DISTINCT dedupe verified against the real database). Every grade now
persists, settles against the real result, and carries closing-line value.
- ledgerService: pipeline pre-grade upserts (public model record, user_id
null, idempotent), closing capture on every snapshot (last write before
game start = the close), settlement with SIGNED CLV (over = locked -
closing; beat/faded/flat), 30d model aggregate with the hard n>=20 rule.
- Write paths: snapshotService -> ledger (priority path); Next /api/scan ->
ledger for authenticated users only (anon never touches the public
record). Refused reads write nothing and don't burn a scan.
- Honest refusal (work-order 1.5): no projection => insufficient_data,
grade null, "INSUFFICIENT DATA - no read" UI. The web gradeAdapter no
longer displays the line as the model projection (the audit's
model==line / +0% edge degenerate); the card renders absent states.
projectionFor is sport-aware (l5 -> l20 -> {stat}_per_90 -> xG).
- /ledger: MY READS | MODEL tabs; model header shows hit% + beat-close%
only at n>=20, else RECORD BUILDING + live pending count. ModelRecord
deferred-render strip on landing + player hero. CLV + outcome chips,
revised_from_grade strikethrough (Phase 2.5 ready).
- SYNC (Task 5): thresholds vs SNAPSHOT_EXPECTED_INTERVAL (normal <1.5x,
amber >=1.5x, STALE red >=3x) via /api/snapshot/summary.
- Phase 2.5 logged in specs/vyndr-roadmap.md (build after Phase 3).
- Data-semantics hardening: strict null-safe numeric parsing everywhere a
market value is handled (Number(null)===0 would have fabricated lines).

Work-order Phase 0 (Jul 10 live audit): every fabricated UI element deleted
or rewired to real data. Deletion sprint — no new product features.
0.1 Fake NBA game: root cause was scheduleService fetching the ESPN
scoreboard with no ?dates= param or date filter — off-season ESPN
returns the NEAREST slate (Jun 13 NYK@SA Finals rendered as tonight).
Now pinned to the requested ET date + defensive filter; undated events
dropped. Honest month-aware per-sport empty states (lib/emptyState.js).
0.2 Fake header counters: liveTick stripped to a bare 1s pulse (the
auto-incrementing "247 graded", sin-driven brain-%, aPlus/cascades are
dead). New GET /api/snapshot/summary (cache-only, before /:sport) +
Next proxy; HeartbeatBar shows the real graded count and SYNC =
elapsed since the last pipeline run (amber past 5 min).
0.3 Ticker: hardcoded fallback items deleted (real snapshot exhaust only);
MOVE kept — computeLineDeltas is real movement. <4 real items → no
ticker; bar publishes --ticker-h so the fixed header collapses cleanly.
0.4 /terminal retired: route redirects to /dashboard; VVI/injury-wire/
leaders layouts preserved unrouted as §12 content-engine templates.
Nav PRIMARY = Slate/Scan/Ledger; BottomTabBar Terminal→Explore; PWA
shortcut Terminal→Ledger; #terminal alias → /dashboard.

Product overhaul core — the two transformative, differentiated systems:
Self-learning loop (Phase 2): outcomeService settles locked snapshot grades
against real MLB Stats API results → hit/miss/push, rolling accuracy by grade
tier (30d window). Idempotent, injectable, unit-tested. New GET /api/accuracy +
/api/ledger/accuracy + internal settle triggers + cron hook. AccuracyBadge
(dashboard/scan/landing) is honest — "LEARNING" below MIN_SAMPLE, never a fake
number. Settled HIT/MISS chips overlay the live slate.
Real-time layer (Phase 1): Slate silent 60s auto-refresh (no flash, no wipe on
transient blips) + "SIGNAL LIVE · UPDATED Xs ago" freshness strip; Ticker LIVE
badge that flashes on fresh events.
Landing (Phase 3): TopSignals shows tonight's real top-3 A-rated grades + live
accuracy — the product shown, not described.
Founder pricing: FOUNDER_CODE_EXPIRY default 2026-06-30 → 2026-12-31 (had
lapsed, disabling every founder code + the ClaimMeter pitch). That expiry — not
a tier change — was the real cause of the 4 stripe test failures.
Backend 2255 (4 failing) → 2274 (all green; +19 new, +4 fixed). Web build exit 0.

Three focused P1 fixes on the Session-45 snapshot model.
- Grade card intel ROOT CAUSE: gameLogService is NBA/WNBA-only (offline Python),
so MLB props never got l5_avg/l20_avg and buildIntelFields returned {}. Wired
MLB game logs into featureCache.gameLogFeatures via mlbStatsAdapter.getPlayerStats
(pure mlbGameLogFeatures + MLB stat_type->field map). buildIntelFields gained
playerStats/projection fallbacks for partial intel.
- Player name normalization: src/utils/playerName.js (+ web/src/lib copy):
normalizeName -> {display,key}. Strips periods, de-dots suffix, accent-folds
the key. Applied in snapshotService grouping, slateAdapter grade index +
player-strip merge (variants collapse, longest name shown), and
playerIntelService. "A.J. Ewing"/"AJ Ewing" + "Jazz Chisholm"/"Jr." now merge.
- MLB starting pitchers: new GET /api/schedule/:sport/pitchers (probablePitchers
service wrapping mlbStatsAdapter.getScheduleWithPitchers + best-effort ERA).
Slate fetches it, builds a team->pitcher map (full name + mascot match),
attaches pitchers to MLB GameCardData. + Next proxy.
Backend 2100 -> 2122 tests (+22), 176 suites. Web build clean (exit 0).

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
