# VYNDR — STATE OF THE WORLD
### As of `ec5ee3d` (main, 2026-07-12). This file opens every future session. Update it when a train ships.

## WHERE THINGS STAND

**Tests: 2757 / 229 suites, all green. Web build exit 0.** Baseline at the A1
board's start was 2398. Governing docs: `specs/VYNDR-NORTH-STAR.md` (v1.1) +
`specs/VOICE.md` (v1.1) + `specs/ROW-GRAMMAR.md` — read them before building
anything.

**The record is live and writing itself.** Day one (Jul 11): 24→25 MLB rows,
real locks (line/odds/book), closing capture every snapshot + every 20-min
intraday refresh, settlement each morning slot with signed CLV. No percentage
renders anywhere under n≥20 — enforced in `ledgerService.getModelAggregate`,
the single gate. WNBA/soccer rows pend honestly until Phase 4.5.

## THE THREE A1 TRAINS (all merged to main, all pushed)

| Train | Range | Carried |
|---|---|---|
| #1 | `4d2b27d → 219167e` | S0 verify · S1 promise audit (`PROMISE-AUDIT.md`: alt ladder + quarter-Kelly BUILT, analyst unlimited, "40+" claims made honest) · S2 compliance (/responsible-gambling rebuilt, /terms /privacy drafts, /methodology, 5 seed articles in `content/articles/`) · S3 affiliate (BOOK IT deep links organic-until-config-flip, best-price dots, ?ref= partner attribution) · S4 media engine (`mediaEngine` + executable VOICE lint, `/desk` arsenal + DATA BRIEF, Ghost DRAFTS-only publisher) · S5 viability (statsapi lineups → CONFIRMED/NOT-IN kills grades visibly; ESPN injury wire; Yesterday/Today/Tomorrow nav + Settle panel) · S7 newsletter (Listmonk capture + THE VYNDR REPORT assembly, env-gated) · S8 ops (settle alarm, 3-slot failure pager, quota/disk/mem, 9AM pulse — test alert delivered to the real ntfy channel) · S9 slip reader (tesseract.js OCR + per-book parsers, /slip page; synthetic-image acceptance passed) · S10 public profiles (/u/{handle}, private-by-default, no-existence-leak) · migrations 021/022 |
| #2 | `219167e → 14dc9cf` | S6 display (ROW-GRAMMAR.md + slot-order fixes, line sparklines from intraday history, last-10 ●●○ dots, CLV distribution on MODEL tab, ⌘K SearchModal + mobile search, landing LCP fixes) |
| #3 | `14dc9cf → ec5ee3d` | S11 live tracking (statsapi/ESPN live box lines → ON PACE / NEEDS N / HIT ✓ in the outcome slot, live games float up, "TRACKING — READ LOCKED PRE-GAME"; real-live acceptance: Harper 3/1.5 TB ▼8th → HIT ✓). Grades never change in-game. |

**Deploy status at write time:** trains #1+#2 verified live (`/methodology`
200 on vyndr.app). Train #3 pushed; API deploy was still building — verify
with `curl -s https://api.vyndr.app/api/live/mlb` (expect JSON `hasLive`,
not "Cannot GET").

## LIVE INFRA MAP (verified in prod)

- **VYNDR Web** — Next.js :3000, vyndr.app. **VYNDR API** — Express :3001,
  api.vyndr.app (`/api/internal/*` behind `VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY`).
- **Scheduler (in-process, API app, `SNAPSHOT_CRON=1`)** — snapshot slots
  14,19,22,1,3 UTC; settle pass (outcomes + ledger, idempotent) runs FIRST
  each slot; 20-min intraday odds refresh during slate hours
  (`INTRADAY_REFRESH=0` kills); desk-ready ping after the day's first slot;
  daily pulse 13:00 UTC; missed-cron + 3-slot-failure + quota pagers → ntfy
  `vyndr-pipeline-kev2026`. Boot logs: `[snapshotScheduler] armed` +
  `[settlement] armed`.
- **Data**: Redis (mastermind-cache) for all pipeline caches (SNAP_TTL 24h —
  do NOT shorten; the 11h overnight gap killed morning settles once).
  **Supabase = the ledger** (`ledger_entries` + `public_profiles` +
  `user_profiles.partner_ref`; RLS everywhere, service-role-only writes;
  migrations 001–022 applied, files in `supabase/migrations/`).
- **Deploys**: gitea `git.builtbykev.com/builtbykev/vyndr` → Coolify webhook
  (HMAC secret fixed Jul 11; auto-deploy proven). GitHub `origin` remote is
  dead-PAT hygiene debt only.
- **Free feeds** (zero out-of-pocket law): PropLine ×3 keys (9k/day capacity;
  intraday uses ≤144/day), odds-api backup (quota-gated), statsapi.mlb.com,
  ESPN site API. tesseract.js OCR self-hosted (traineddata caches on first
  call — needs outbound network once).

## ENV VARS STILL PENDING ON KEV'S SIDE (Coolify, API app)

1. `SNAPSHOT_EXPECTED_INTERVAL=1200` — **confirmed absent** (fresh restart
   still served the 18000 default). SYNC badge tracks intraday cadence once set.
2. `DESK_OWNERS=kevdevelops@gmail.com` — /desk 403s everyone until set.
3. `LISTMONK_URL` / `LISTMONK_USER` / `LISTMONK_TOKEN` / `LISTMONK_LIST_ID`
   (all four together) — newsletter no-ops politely without them; box-side
   setup in `docs/NEWSLETTER.md`.
4. Optional: `GHOST_URL` + `GHOST_ADMIN_API_KEY` (drafts), `PULSE_HOUR_UTC`.

**Entity placeholders** (S2, blocked on Kev's values): `[ENTITY NAME]`,
`[STATE OF FORMATION]`, `[ARBITRATION VENUE]`, `[CONTACT EMAIL]` in
`web/src/app/terms/page.tsx` (6×) + `web/src/app/privacy/page.tsx` (5×).
A test keeps unverified entity names out until replaced.

## HONEST OPEN ITEMS

- **Phase 4.5 — WNBA settlement via ESPN box scores. DUE ~Jul 24** (hard
  date). Until then WNBA/soccer/NBA ledger rows pend forever; accuracy = MLB only.
- **The record needs time**: no percentage anywhere before n≥20 settles, by
  design. First percentages expected ~day 3–4 of MLB volume.
- **Slip reader**: acceptance was a clean synthetic image; needs one real
  phone screenshot (DK) to validate OCR robustness.
- **Landing LCP**: S6's fixes are static-analysis-provable but unmeasured —
  run PageSpeed mobile vs the 3.8s baseline; next suspect is the
  LiveHeroProp post-fetch swap.
- **Partner report endpoint** returns real numbers only for signups AFTER
  migration 021 (metadata path live; OAuth signups carry no ref — known gap
  in `docs/PARTNERS.md`).
- **NBA Oct / NFL Sep readiness** + soccer end-to-end: `specs/vyndr-roadmap.md`.
- **Killed permanently** (founder ruling): AI chat assistant, light mode.

## OPERATING LAWS (never relax)

Zero out-of-pocket · absent beats wrong, refusal beats hollow · n≥20 before
any percentage · nothing auto-posts anywhere, ever · grades never change
in-game (revisions are public via `revised_from_grade`) · one meaning per
color, data in mono · no exclamation points, anywhere · the pipeline is the
only source of numbers, including in marketing (`mediaEngine` lint enforces).
