Giorgio Gilestro a55168d20a ui: log panel stretches to portfolio bottom; AI analysis stays expanded
Two small fixes to the dashboard right column based on user feedback:

1. layout.css — drop align-self:start from #log-panel.
   The panel previously shrank to its content, leaving the right-hand
   column visually shorter than the indicators+portfolio stack on the
   left. Removing the override lets the grid stretch the panel to the
   full row span so the two columns now bottom-align. The log content
   still sits at the top of the panel; any extra height is empty
   padding inside the box.

2. portfolio.js — re-hydrate AI analysis expanded.
   The 60s auto-refresh rebuilds the portfolio mount and re-attaches
   the previously-generated analysis from localStorage, but the
   <details> element was re-attached with open:false — collapsing it
   under the user's cursor every minute. Users reasonably perceived
   that as "the analysis disappeared". Hydrate as open:true so the
   body stays visible; the user can still click the summary to
   collapse manually within a refresh window.

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:

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.

Config

File Purpose
config/default.toml Universal data tables: indicator groups, RSS feeds, keyword presets
config/portfolio.toml User-specific portfolios (overrides default.toml)
.env Secrets and runtime knobs — mounted read-only into containers

Endpoints

  • GET / — dashboard
  • GET /portfolio/{name} — portfolio detail
  • GET /news — news feed
  • GET /log — strategic-log archive
  • GET /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).
