After the 8-commit SP23 implementation landed, kicking the tires on
`docker compose build && docker compose up -d` (the gated DOCKER_TESTS=1
live test) surfaced five real bugs that don't show up in unit tests:
1. Backend wheel was built from the stub `__init__.py`, not the real
source. The Dockerfile's 'stub __init__, wheel, copy src, wheel
again' pattern silently kept the first wheel's contents — only
`__init__.py` got re-stubbed. The installed package had an empty
`__init__.py`, so `from cyclone import __version__` failed at import
time and the backend kept crashing in a restart loop.
Fix: single `COPY src/` + single `pip wheel`. Comment explains
why the stub trick is gone for good.
2. Backend binds to 127.0.0.1 (intentional — local-only by design,
see CLAUDE.md). But that means the frontend container can't reach
it over the compose bridge network — nginx got 'Connection refused'.
Fix: `CYCLONE_HOST` env var, defaults to 127.0.0.1 (preserves local
posture for non-Docker runs), set to 0.0.0.0 by the docker-compose
backend service. Network isolation is provided by the compose bridge
network (only `cyclone-frontend` joins).
3. Healthcheck probed `/api/healthz` (404 — the route is `/api/health`).
Same in: backend Dockerfile HEALTHCHECK, docker-compose healthcheck,
nginx.conf doesn't have one (frontend proxies through), RUNBOOK.md,
scripts/post-deploy.sh, scripts/smoke.sh.
Fix: `/api/healthz` → `/api/health` everywhere SP23 owns.
4. The auth matrix in `cyclone.auth.permissions` had
`("GET", "/api/healthz"): set()` — which is the WRONG path (the
route is `/api/health`). So even after fixing the healthcheck URL,
the public auth bypass wouldn't have applied to `/api/health` and
it would have been DENY-by-default (fail-closed).
Fix: matrix entry updated to `/api/health`.
5. nginx upstream pointed at `cyclone-backend` (the project+service
name), but compose v2 only resolves the bare service name (`backend`)
over the bridge network. nginx crashed at config-load with 'host not
found in upstream cyclone-backend'.
Fix: `cyclone-backend:8000` → `backend:8000` in nginx.conf + spec
+ plan.
6. Frontend HEALTHCHECK used `http://localhost:8080/`. nginx in the
alpine image listens on IPv6 (per the entrypoint's IPv6-by-default
script), so `localhost` (which prefers IPv6 `::1` in musl) connects,
but the resolved flow inside wget is unreliable. `127.0.0.1` works.
Fix: HEALTHCHECK uses `http://127.0.0.1:8080/`.
Also moves `frontend/Dockerfile` → `Dockerfile.frontend` and
`frontend/nginx.conf` → `nginx.conf` at repo root (because the
frontend lives at the repo root, not in `frontend/`, and compose's
`build.context: .` needs them at the same root as compose.yml).
The frontend's pre-existing `.dockerignore` was empty/unused, so it's
dropped — the root `.dockerignore` covers it.
Adds `docker-compose.override.yml` for local bring-up testing on a
host without sudo. Production uses `/etc/cyclone/secrets/` directly.
Verified end-to-end on this dev host with `DOCKER_TESTS=1`:
- Both containers `(healthy)` within ~60s
- `curl http://localhost:8080/api/health` → 200 with valid JSON
- Login as admin → 200, /api/auth/me → 200
- `POST /api/parse-837` with docs/goodclaim.x12 → 200, batch created
- Full backend test suite: 1014 passed, 9 skipped (prodfiles gitignored)
12 tasks from worktree bootstrap through single-atomic-merge into main. Backend Dockerfile (multi-stage python:3.11-slim-bookworm + sqlcipher + non-root + healthcheck), frontend Dockerfile (multi-stage node:20-alpine build + nginx:1.27-alpine runtime), docker-compose.yml at repo root with two services + named volumes + Docker secrets, scripts/{cyclone-init,post-deploy,smoke}.sh, RUNBOOK.md, tests/test_docker.py (compose config + Dockerfile parse + optional live bring-up), and a small auth bootstrap extension to read CYCLONE_ADMIN_*_FILE for Docker-secret compatibility. Closes the SP23 spec; see spec section 1.1 for what auth is reused from main vs. what SP23 actually adds.
Plan covers the docs-only reconciliation between the auth work that landed
in main on 2026-06-23 and the three top-level docs (CLAUDE.md, docs/
REQUIREMENTS.md, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md). Includes a 6-line __main__.py edit
for the AUTH_DISABLED startup WARNING and one-paragraph addenda to the
cyclone-tests / cyclone-api-router / cyclone-spec skills.
Spec: docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-23-cyclone-auth-posture-alignment-design.md
The implementer caught that claims.id is a single-column PK, which
prevents the same CLM01 from existing in multiple batches. That
makes the spec's pre-flight 409 workflow unreachable and resubmits
impossible. Migration 0014 relaxes the PKs to composite (batch_id,
id) on both claims and remittances, and updates all FKs that
referenced the old single-column PK. Task 1.3 in the plan is now
the migration; the previous Task 1.3 (helper tightening) is
renumbered to Task 1.4 and will run after 0014 lands.
The implementation shipped with 10 inline bug fixes that weren't reflected
in the original plan document. This commit updates the plan so it
matches the as-built code and adds a summary table near the top so a
future reader of the plan knows what was adjusted and why.
- Bug 1a: AckTimeoutError.__init__ signature widened from int to float
plus adds self.phase attribute for report remediation hints.
- Bug 1b: wait_for passes timeout_s through without int() round-trip.
- Bug 2: Markdown table assertion updated to match the actual format.
- Bug 3: Added ## Remediation section to write_report_md for soft/hard fails.
- Bug 4: 835 expected-by text now says 'typically the following Monday'.
- Bug 5: Removed bogus HealthSnapshot import in test_pipeline.py.
- Bug 6: All phase tests wrapped in 'async with CyclonePipeline(...) as p:'.
- Bug 7: Playwright + UploadPage imports moved to module level in pipeline.py.
- Bug 8: Added _phase_records_to_results() helper for PhaseRecord→PhaseResult.
- Bug 9: Resume test uses _make_stub factory so stubs append to completed_phases.
- Bug 10: CLI uses context_settings={'allow_interspersed_args': True}.
Update _get_typed in the plan to:
- raise immediately on 4xx (terminal)
- retry on 5xx and RequestError (transient)
- use BACKOFF_S = (1.0, 2.0) instead of (1.0, 2.0, 4.0)
- use RuntimeError instead of assert for the context-manager guard
Also add test_4xx_is_terminal_not_retried to the plan's test list.
The verbatim plan returned an un-entered CycloneClient from the fixture,
causing all 3 tests to fail with 'use async with CycloneClient(...)'.
Convert fixture to async generator that enters the context. Verified by
running pytest tests/test_api_client.py -v → 3 passed.
The verbatim plan's test asserted isinstance(log, structlog.stdlib.BoundLogger),
but cache_logger_on_first_use=True makes get_logger return a lazy proxy on
first call. Test now uses duck-typing (hasattr('bind') + callable). Also
dropped the misleading caplog assertion and unused logging/structlog imports.
- conftest.py example now uses SAMPLE_837P constant so sample_837p_bytes
reads the file (not the directory).
- Note that Python 3.13 satisfies requires-python >= 3.11 if 3.11 isn't
installed.
13 tasks implementing the spec: pre-flight baseline, atomic-move of
store.py into store/__init__.py, 10 module extractions (exceptions,
records, orm_builders, ui, write, batches, claim_detail, acks, backups,
inbox, providers), and final verification + single atomic commit.
Working tree stays dirty through Tasks 1-11; final commit happens at
end of Task 12 per the spec's single-atomic-commit requirement.
Each task ends with a focused test-suite verification (not full baseline
— that's Task 12 Step 1's job) so regressions are caught early.
- backend/src/cyclone/parsers/serialize_837.py — full-rebuild 837P serializer.
Emits envelope (ISA/GS/ST/SE/GE/IEA + BHT) + submitter/receiver/billing
provider/subscriber/payer hierarchy + editable segments (CLM/REF*G1/HI)
+ per-service-line LX/SV1/DTP*472/REF*6R — all from canonical
ClaimOutput fields.
Pivoted from spec §3.1 hybrid to full rebuild because ClaimOutput.raw_segments
only captures post-CLM segments (CLM, REF*G1, HI, LX, SV1 pairs) — not the
envelope or hierarchies. A pass-through approach cannot regenerate those
without expanding raw_segments in parse_837.py (out of scope for this SP).
- backend/tests/test_serialize_837.py — 36 tests covering envelope shape,
hierarchy segments, claim-level builders, service-line builders, edited-field
propagation, round-trip, custom sender/receiver IDs, and resubmit helper.
- backend/tests/test_prodfiles_smoke.py::test_claims_prodfile_round_trip —
every file in docs/prodfiles/claims/ (113 files) round-trips through
serialize_837 → parse_837_text with deep-equal ClaimOutput (modulo
validation, which is recomputed by the parser).
- docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-20-cyclone-serialize-837.md — full plan
with amendment note documenting the Approach A pivot.
Per session convention, plan note about unrelated modifications to
parse_835.py / fixtures stashed separately.
- Mark SP4 as fully shipped (batch diff, search, CSV, a11y all landed)
- Add SP6 (Inbox) and SP7 (Per-line reconciliation) sections
- Add SP6 + SP7 endpoint inventories
- Note next up: outbound 837P serializer
The workflow-automation plan was authored but never committed; the
features it specified have shipped, so commit it for the historical
record alongside this README refresh.
Brings the SP5 live-tail implementation into main:
Backend
* EventBus (cyclone.pubsub): per-kind fan-out with drop-oldest overflow
* FastAPI lifespan initializes the bus + db once per process
* store.add() publishes claim_written / remittance_written /
activity_recorded events on every batch write
* GET /api/{claims,remittances,activity}/stream: NDJSON snapshot +
live subscription + 15s idle heartbeat
* EventBus.unsubscribe() lets the tail loop release its queue on
client disconnect (no queue leak per open stream)
Frontend
* src/lib/tail-stream.ts: streamTail() async-generator over fetch
* src/store/tail-store.ts: zustand with FIFO cap 10k per slice
* src/hooks/useTailStream.ts: connecting/live/reconnecting/stalled/error/closed
state machine with 1→2→4→8→16→30s backoff
* src/hooks/useMergedTail.ts: base + tail merge with filter
* src/components/TailStatusPill.tsx: badge + Reconnect button
* Claims, Remittances, ActivityLog pages wired to the tail
Tests
* 437 backend tests pass (was 418 before SP5)
* 154 frontend tests pass (was 124)
* npm run typecheck clean
* end-to-end smoke: open /api/claims/stream, POST 837, see new claims
arrive in real time without refresh
