Swaps the role of `:root` (now light) and the data-theme attribute
(now `[data-theme="dark"]`) in cassandra.css, flips the localStorage
fallback from 'dark' to 'light' in base/login/verify templates, and
updates the theme-toggle label and the branding-consistency test
selectors to match.
Existing users with cassandra.theme=dark in localStorage still see
dark — their explicit preference wins. Only first-time visitors and
users with no stored preference shift to light.

The product is now "Read the Markets" served at https://read.markets,
with the app at https://app.read.markets. "Cassandra" survives only as
the in-product AI persona (system prompt + "Ask Cassandra" chat label).
Centralised the brand in app/branding.py: BRAND_NAME, BRAND_SHORT,
DOMAIN, SITE_URL, APP_URL, EMAIL_FROM_DEFAULT. Jinja templates pull
{{ BRAND_NAME }} via globals registered in templates_env.py; Python
code reads branding.BRAND_NAME directly. The future-rename surface
is now a one-liner.
Updated: FastAPI app title, every page title (dashboard, news, log,
settings, upload, login, verify), header brand div, auth-card brands,
OTP email subject + HTML + plain-text bodies (incl. uppercase header
tag), OpenRouter X-Title + HTTP-Referer attribution headers, README.
Email tests now assert against branding.BRAND_NAME rather than the
literal string.
Internal identifiers deliberately kept on the legacy "cassandra" name
to avoid invalidating live sessions / advisory locks / configs:
cookies (cassandra_session, cassandra_pending) + itsdangerous salts,
MariaDB GET_LOCK keys, CASSANDRA_TOKEN env var, cassandra.css filename,
pyproject package name, localStorage prefs, outbound User-Agent strings.

Lays the billing-prep spine before Paddle lands in D.3.
D.1 — referrals
- users.referral_code: unique 8-char URL-safe code (alphabet excludes the
ambiguous 0/O/1/I/L). Generated lazily on first /settings hit so existing
accounts pick one up without a backfill migration.
- users.referred_by_user_id + new referrals audit table (referrer,
referred, created_at, converted_at, credited_at). converted_at /
credited_at stay null until D.3 fills them via the Paddle webhook.
- POST /login accepts ?ref=<code>; the code rides on the signed
pending-verify cookie so it survives the GET → POST → /verify hop.
- /settings page: email, tier badge, referral code chip + invite link
with one-click copy, pending/converted/active-credits stats grid.
Settings nav link added to the top bar.
Reward shape: when the referred user makes their first paid Paddle
subscription, both they and the referrer get 50% off for 3 months.
(D.3 wires the actual credit application via the Paddle webhook.)
D.2 — paid-access gate
- users.credit_until: timestamp until which a free-tier account has
paid-tier access. Null = no credit. Populated by admin CLI now and the
D.3 webhook later.
- app.services.access exposes paid_status(user) → PaidStatus dataclass
(active / source / expires_at / days_remaining), is_paid_active() with
admin-bearer-token bypass, and a require_paid FastAPI dependency that
raises 402 Payment Required for free-tier callers.
- POST /api/analyze (portfolio AI commentary) gated behind require_paid.
- Settings page surfaces credit window when active ("free · credit · N
day(s) remaining (expires YYYY-MM-DD)") and the upgrade hint when not.
- Admin CLI: python -m app.cli {grant-credit,revoke-credit,show-status}.
grant-credit is idempotent — extends from max(now, current expiry) so
re-running the command never erodes an existing grant.
Migrations 0013 (referrals) and 0014 (credit_until). Tests cover the
paid-status truth table, code generation + normalisation, CLI argument
parsing, and the pending-cookie ref roundtrip (29 new tests).
- Move news_job from hourly to 3x/hour (cron 10,30,50), with a CadencePolicy
gate that throttles to active hours (07-21 UTC weekdays at 20 min), off-hours
(3 h), weekends (6 h). Keeps the daytime feed fresh without spamming RSS
sources overnight.
- Tag each headline on ingestion via DeepSeek (BATCH_SIZE=25, max_tokens=4000,
json.JSONDecoder().raw_decode + per-row regex recovery for resilient parsing).
Vocabulary: 16 tags including new EU / USA / AI / Conflict. NULL tags are
picked up automatically on the next news_job run, so back-tagging is implicit
rather than a separate migration step.
- Tag UI: pill bar above the feed with off → include → exclude cycle on click;
shift-click jumps straight to exclude. State persists in localStorage and is
injected into /api/news requests via htmx:configRequest. Per-row chips sit to
the right of the headline (new 5-column grid: age | source | title | tags |
UTC) so vertical density stays high.
- Strategic log header bug: model was hallucinating "(Updated 21:30 UTC)" in
future tense. Bumped PROMPT_VERSION 6→7, added explicit ban on time-of-day
clauses, and supply the actual current UTC time in the user prompt so the
model has no need to invent one.
Migration 0012 adds headlines.tags (JSON, nullable). Tests cover vocabulary
integrity, validation/normalisation, and the JSON-recovery parser (17 tests).
Server no longer holds portfolios. Holdings live in the browser
(localStorage); the server publishes an anonymous ticker_universe and a
gzipped /api/universe payload identical for every authenticated user, so
access patterns can't betray which tickers a user holds. AI commentary
is generated ephemerally from the browser-supplied pie and the cost
ledger row records no positions. Migrations 0009-0011 added the
universe table and dropped positions / portfolio_snapshots /
portfolios.
Authentication is now e-mail OTP only. Migration 0010 dropped
password_hash and email_verified (every active session is by
construction proof of email control). The /signup endpoint is gone;
signup and login share a single email-entry page. Email rendering is
HTML+plain-text multipart with a shared brand palette (app/branding.py)
asserted in sync with the CSS by a drift-detection test.
LLM provider defaults to DeepSeek-direct (cheaper, api.deepseek.com)
with OpenRouter as automatic fallback if DeepSeek fails. ai_log_job and
indicator_summary_job now iterate the two tones (NOVICE, INTERMEDIATE)
per cycle so the dashboard's tone toggle is instant; PROMPT_VERSION
bumped to 6 with an educational anti-TA / anti-gambling stance baked
into _CORE. NOVICE mode renders a curated glossary inline (CBOE VIX,
yield curve, HY OAS, etc.) with JS-positioned tooltips that survive
viewport edges and sticky bars. Model name and tokens hidden from the
user UI; still recorded in StrategicLog.model and AICall for admin.
Layout adds a sticky top nav, a sticky bottom markets bar (one chip per
exchange with status LED + headline index + 1d change), and
Phase H feedback reporting is queued in tasks/todo.md.

Replaces the static bearer-token gate with a real auth boundary. The
existing CASSANDRA_TOKEN path is retained as an admin / scripting escape
hatch — kept compatible by aliasing require_token to require_auth.
- New users table (migration 0007): email, argon2 password_hash, tier,
email_verified (declared but not enforced until phase E), settings_json
for the tone/analysis/anchor knobs we'll wire in phase D.
- app/services/auth_service.py: argon2-cffi password hashing with timing-
attack-resistant authenticate() (always runs a hash verify even on
unknown-email to deny a username-enumeration oracle).
- app/auth.py rewritten: require_auth returns a CurrentUser with either
is_admin=True (bearer path) or a User object (session path). Failing
requests get 303 → /login for HTML, 401 for API. Sessions signed with
itsdangerous against CASSANDRA_SESSION_SECRET; 14-day TTL.
- app/routers/auth.py: /login, /signup, /logout. Login form preserves the
?next=… param for redirect-after-login. Signup respects a new
CASSANDRA_SIGNUP_ENABLED flag.
- Standalone /login + /signup templates (no app chrome). base.html grows
a user chip + logout link in the header (reads request.state.current_user).
Phase A's main known limitations are documented in the plan: email
verification is declared but not enforced; session revocation is
best-effort (cookie-only, not DB-backed). Both land in phase E.

Completes Phase B. The full alternative-onboarding flow is now end-to-end:
drop a T212 pie CSV → parser → InstrumentMap resolver → PortfolioSnapshot
+ Position rows, all without ever asking the user for broker credentials.
- persist_pie() in app/services/csv_import.py: takes a ParsedPie, resolves
each Slice via InstrumentMap, writes Portfolio + Snapshot + Position
rows. Unmapped slices are still persisted using their CSV values and
surfaced in the response for the UI to warn about.
- POST /api/portfolios/upload: multipart endpoint accepting CSV file +
optional portfolio_name + currency. 2 MiB cap. Returns import summary.
- /upload page with drag-drop dropzone, file input fallback, and inline
result panel showing invested/value/result + unmapped-slice warnings.
- New "Import" link in the header nav.
Verified end-to-end against the real T212 export: all 13 positions land
with correct T212 tickers (incl. FPp_EQ for the Paris TotalEnergies
listing the heuristic resolver picks), zero unmapped slices, totals
reconcile to the penny.

Containerised macro-strategy dashboard: 4-panel web UI (indicators,
portfolio, flash news, AI strategic log), MariaDB store, hourly
ingestion jobs, OpenRouter-backed AI analysis.
Ports the four prototype scripts in the parent dir (market_pulse,
flash_news, trading212, strategic_log) into async services backed by a
persistent DB and served via FastAPI + Jinja2 + HTMX. APScheduler runs
as a separate compose service for crash-safety and easier restarts.
Portfolio composition + position names come live from Trading 212;
news per-ticker headlines reuse those names. Tone (NOVICE/INTERMEDIATE/
PRO) and analysis style (DRY/SPECULATIVE) are env-configurable and
stored on each log row so historical entries show what produced them.
Default model is deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash (overridable via env).
Light/dark theme toggle, sans-serif for prose surfaces, monospace for
data. Bearer-token auth, OpenRouter monthly cost cap, RSS feeds auto-
disabled on consecutive failures.
