Giorgio Gilestro f9534f7ad6 review: gate strategic-log, portfolio, chat, and digest on reviewer
Extends the reviewer agent — previously only protecting indicator
summaries — to every AI-generated surface that reaches a user. The
reviewer's prompt already rejects scratchpad, truncation,
meta-commentary, and (since a6e476b) financial advice; wiring it in
turns those rules from prompt-level "asks" into structural gates.

Four call sites updated:

- ai_log_job.run() : after each tone/analysis variant is generated,
  pass through review_read. On reject, log the reason and skip the
  StrategicLog insert; the API's existing "latest StrategicLog" lookup
  falls back to the previous clean log.

- services/portfolio_analysis.analyse() : on reject, raise a clean
  RuntimeError that the /api/analyze router already maps to HTTP 502
  with a retry-able message. Portfolio analysis isn't cached server-
  side, so the user retries; the reviewer's verdict reason goes into
  the AICall ledger as the leaked-status row's error column.

- routers/chat.chat() : on reject, instead of returning the raw
  assistant content we return a short refusal explaining the limit
  and inviting a rephrase. Adds ~1-2 s of latency per turn (one extra
  LLM call to Haiku) — the only user-facing latency tax.

- jobs/email_digest_job._generate_variants() : on reject, the variant
  is dropped for the cycle. Recipients on the rejected tone get no
  digest email this run, which is better than delivering inbox copy
  that drifts into advice (emails are unrecallable once sent).

In every case the AICall ledger row records the reviewer cost so
month_spend stays accurate across all paths.

The reviewer system prompt is slightly generalised to cover both the
indicator-summary case and the longer-form log/digest/chat case:
- removes "short interpretive read" framing
- softens the "any question" rule so genuine rhetorical structure in
  a long-form log doesn't trigger a reject

tests/conftest.py grows an autouse fixture that stubs review_read to
clean=True in every consumer module. Tests that mock the generator
shouldn't have to also mock the safety gate behind it; tests that
specifically want the reject branch can override with their own
monkeypatch. test_output_review.py is unaffected — it imports
review_read directly.

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).
