Reports that portfolio AI analysis was coming back in English even for IT-toggled users. Traced the chain (DB user.lang IS set to it, router passes it into the payload, parse_request reads it, build_prompt appends respond_in_clause), so the wiring is correct end-to-end. The model was simply ignoring the single-sentence tail nudge: when the system prompt is hundreds of lines of English and the user message adds more English context, "Respond in Italian." at the end is easy to drop on the floor. Add a new services/i18n.language_directive_lead() that returns a strong, explicit top-of-prompt block — "# LANGUAGE — write everything in <X>" plus the verbatim-tickers-and-numbers carve-out — meant to be PREPENDED so the model anchors on the target language before it reads the bulk of the instructions. Combined with the existing tail clause it's belt-and-suspenders: top + bottom of the prompt both say "in this language". Applied to portfolio_analysis.build_prompt() and chat.py — the two surfaces that generate user-facing prose in real time (the strategic log + indicator summaries get post-hoc translation via translate(), so the directive isn't needed there). Empty-string return for en / unknown lang means callers can wire it in unconditionally; no extra plumbing in i18n callsites. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Read the Markets
Containerised macro-strategy dashboard — hourly market data, RSS news, Trading 212 portfolio, and an AI-generated strategic log written by Cassandra, the in-product seer. Read-only by design.
Production:
- Landing: https://read.markets
- App: https://app.read.markets
The Python package is still named cassandra and several internal identifiers (cookie names, advisory-lock keys, CASSANDRA_TOKEN env var, CSS filename) keep the legacy name on purpose — renaming them would invalidate live sessions / locks / configs for no user benefit. See app/branding.py for the brand single-source-of-truth.
Quick start (local dev)
cp .env.example .env # fill in API keys; set CASSANDRA_TOKEN if exposing
docker compose up --build # db + app + scheduler + daily backup sidecar
open http://localhost:8000/ # or whichever CASSANDRA_PORT you set
docker-compose.override.yml is auto-loaded and adds the host port
binding so the app is reachable on localhost.
Production (VPS, NPM-fronted)
Always invoke with explicit -f flags — that way the dev override is
skipped and the prod overlay (no host port, joins the external
intranet Docker network, uvicorn on port 80) is applied:
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build
Point Nginx Proxy Manager at upstream readmarkets-app-1:80.
Architecture
- app (FastAPI + Jinja2 + HTMX) — web dashboard on port 8000
- scheduler (APScheduler) — hourly ingestion jobs (market, news, portfolio, AI log)
- db (MariaDB 11) — quotes, headlines, portfolio snapshots, strategic logs, job runs
- backup (sidecar) — daily mariadb-dump to
./backup/
See /home/gg/.claude/plans/ok-i-think-this-tidy-lake.md for the design plan.

Endpoints
GET /— dashboardGET /portfolio/{name}— portfolio detailGET /news— news feedGET /log— strategic-log archiveGET /api/health— job status (last success / failure per job)
All authenticated routes require Authorization: Bearer $CASSANDRA_TOKEN if the env is set; if unset, the app is open (LAN-only mode).
