F5 — Persistent week selector in URL (the audit's F5 / H7 finding).
Backend:
- GET /api/meals and GET /api/shopping-list now accept an optional
?week_start=YYYY-MM-DD query param. When set, the response is the
MealPlan for that week (any status). When omitted, behaviour is
unchanged: meals returns the latest plan; shopping-list returns
the latest approved/locked plan with fallback to latest.
- No new dependencies; uses FastAPI's Optional[date] Query type
which auto-validates the YYYY-MM-DD format.
- Files: backend/app/api/meals.py:30-57, shopping_list.py:27-60.
Frontend:
- New week helpers in lib/utils.ts: isoMonday(), parseIsoDate(),
shiftIsoDate(), formatIsoDate(). All UTC-based to match the
backend's date column. isoMonday returns the ISO date of the
Monday of a given date's week.
- api/index.ts: meals.getPlanned(weekStart?) and
shoppingList.get(weekStart?) take an optional ISO date string.
Axios drops undefined params, so callers can omit them.
- Dashboard: useSearchParams('week') reads the URL; if absent or
invalid, falls back to this week's Monday (so the default URL is
empty). The queryKey now includes weekStart, so navigating weeks
fetches the right plan. A new segmented control in the header
(chevron-left | 'This week' / 'Current' jump button | chevron-
right) lets the user step weeks; the jump button highlights
primary-50 when the displayed week IS the current week. 'This
week' clears the ?week param. Mutations (move/approve/deny/
delete/generate) now invalidate ['mealPlan', weekStart] so the
right week refetches.
- ShoppingList: same URL sync, same segmented control, same
weekStart in queryKey. The 'no plan' empty state branches on
isCurrentWeek: 'No shopping list yet' (current) vs 'No plan for
that week' (any other week). The local-storage check-state key
naturally isolates per week (it uses shoppingList.week_start_date
which is the server's view of the current plan's week).
Migration 0015 cast fix:
- Discovered while smoke-testing on the local dev DB: the
CASE expression in 0015_normalize_pantry_aisles.py failed
with 'operator does not exist: text = boolean' on the
varchar(100) aisle column. Root cause: the CASE branches were
inferred as different types (string vs NULL) so the SET
target type couldn't be unified.
- Fix: explicit ::varchar(100) cast on the CASE expression.
Also simplified the WHEN '' branch (was NULLIF(...) IS NULL
with implicit bool comparison). Tested on local dev DB:
alembic upgrade head now succeeds; the 21196 rows that the
Sprint 2 dry-run predicted actually normalize correctly.
This means Sprint 2's deploy was blocked on the same bug
(the deployment host would have hit the same error).
- Verified via curl: /api/shopping-list?week_start=2026-05-15
returns 25 items with aisles 'Meat & Seafood', 'Pantry',
'Produce', 'Dairy & Eggs' (the canonical labels the migration
produces). Pre-migration aisles like 'meat_seafood' are gone.
Build: tsc 0 errors, vite 0 errors. 7 files, +196/-22.
F7: surface every failed query/mutation as a toast via react-query
QueryCache/MutationCache onError, with a single error normalizer that
extracts FastAPI's response.data.detail (string or Pydantic 422 array).
- lib/toast.tsx: new extractErrorMessage(err, fallback) and
showApiError(err, fallback). Reads response.data.detail when present
(string or [{loc, msg, type}, ...] array), then err.message, then
the fallback. No more '[object Object]' or raw stack traces.
- App.tsx: QueryClient is now created with QueryCache and
MutationCache onError handlers wired to showApiError. Added
defaultOptions.queries: { retry: 1, refetchOnWindowFocus: false }
so background refetch failures are no longer silent (the audit's
H9 finding).
- Dashboard.tsx: removed 6 local try/catch toasts (move/approve/deny/
delete/generate) since the global handler now covers them. Kept
VoteEmailButton.handleSend and handleDelete's undo-callback with
showApiError(err, 'Failed to ...') for action-specific fallback
strings — those are user-initiated recovery paths where a contextual
default is more useful than the bare FastAPI detail.
- Pantry.tsx: removed 3 local onError handlers (addMutation,
removeMutation, handleAdd's createIngredient path) and
handleRemove's outer catch. Kept 3 pre-flight client-side checks
(missing ingredient link, empty name, unresolved ingredient) that
never reach the network. handleRemove's undo callback now uses
showApiError for the restore failure.
- MealDetail.tsx: removed submitMutation.onError. The local
'Failed to save feedback. Please try again.' string is replaced
by the actual FastAPI detail (e.g. 'Feedback for this meal already
exists' or the Pydantic 422 msg).
Net result: 10 backend-error try/catch blocks deleted, error messages
are now identical to what the backend actually says, and any future
mutation that forgets to add a local onError still gets surfaced.
F6: Dashboard plan-status Badge (variant driven by status: draft /
awaiting_approval / approved / rejected) now passes an explicit
aria-label='Plan status: <text>' so a screen reader announces both
the category and the value instead of just the colour-encoded text.
This matches the pattern already used for the per-item approval
status Badge in Dashboard.tsx (added in Sprint 3) and completes the
audit §Sprint 3 a11y sweep for that page.
build: tsc 0 errors, vite 0 errors. 5 files, +72/-19.
- lib/toast.tsx (renamed from .ts for JSX): new showToast.undo(message,
onUndo, ms=5000) helper. Inline 'Undo' button dismisses the toast and
fires onUndo. Note: react-hot-toast 2.6 lacks onClose/onDismiss, so
expiry is silent — same effective behavior as confirm() declined.
- Dashboard.handleDelete: captures the full MealPlanItem before the
DELETE so Undo can re-fire meals.generateItem(planId, dayOfWeek,
mealType) and refill the slot (recipe may differ — see plan R4).
- Pantry.handleRemove: fully reversible — Undo re-fires pantry.add with
the original ingredient_id, quantity, and unit. New removeId state
scopes the spinner to the clicked row.
- Both confirm() call sites removed.
- App.tsx Navigation: whitespace-nowrap + px-2 sm:px-3 so all 4 links fit
on one line down to 360 px. aria-current='page' on the active link.
<nav aria-label='Primary'>, <main id='main-content'>.
- components/ui/Badge: optional icon and aria-label props. Dashboard
approval-status Badge passes aria-label='Approval status: approved'
(or the current value) so screen readers don't rely on color alone.
- ErrorBoundary already mounted at App.tsx:42 — verified, no code change.
- Review/sprint3-verification.md (new) + Review/ui-nielsen-audit.md and
fix-ui-audit.md updated with Sprint 3 status and deploy steps.
Build: npm run build (tsc + vite) green. tsc 0 errors.
- Dashboard MealCard: title truncate -> line-clamp-2, image shrinks to
40x40 on <md to give the title room (B6).
- MealDetail: hero reworked to normal flow with stronger gradient;
description runs through new cleanDescription() helper that strips
14 spoonacular SEO patterns and trims to the last full sentence.
Raw description moved to a 'Notes from source' disclosure (B7).
- Pantry: free-text aisle/unit replaced with <Select> populated from
the new PANTRY_AISLES canonical enum; ingredient name field marked
required. New PANTRY_AISLES export + PantryAisle type in types (B8).
- backend: alembic 0015_normalize_pantry_aisles maps free-text
ingredient.aisle and grocery_item.aisle to canonical labels in a
single transaction; downgrade raises (restore from snapshot).
backend/scripts/dry_run_aisle_migration.sql is the read-only
preview helper.
- ShoppingList: human-readable AISLE_LABEL map replaces raw snake_case
aisle keys; 3-col stat grid with compact mobile sizing (B9 + S3.3).
- Pantry table: role/aria-label region and a right-edge white
gradient hint at mobile horizontal overflow (B10).
- Recipes: pending/applied filter split, Apply and Reset buttons,
active-count chip on the Filters button, role=region + aria-label
on the panel (B11).
- Review/sprint2-verification.md and fix-ui-audit.md updated.
Build: npm run build (tsc + vite) green. tsc emits 0 errors.
Co-located audit + plan docs kept in sync: Review/ui-nielsen-audit.md
gains a Sprint 2 status block; fix-ui-audit.md has implementation
notes for each Sprint 2 task.
Sprint 1 of the UI/UX audit (Review/ui-nielsen-audit.md).
- RecipeDetail: drop .trim() on ingredient line so unit and name no longer fuse
('2 canBlack Beans' -> '2 can Black Beans').
- MealDetail: align ingredient field name to backend ('qty' not 'quantity'),
add 'ingredient.name' fallback for the missing nested name from API.
- MealDetail: '$N/A per serving' -> '$X.XX' or 'No estimate'.
- App: add /recommended alias to /recipes/recommended, plus a catch-all
NotFound page so unrecognised URLs no longer render blank.
- Dashboard: remove 'hidden md:*' on empty meal slots so mobile users can
tap Generate. Bump empty-slot button to 44px min-height (a11y).
- EmptyState: accept an optional 'to' prop for Link-wrapped actions.
- types: extend RecipeIngredient with optional notes and nested ingredient.
- api/meal_plans.py: /regenerate now passes exclude_recipe_ids into generate_meal_plan
- planner/generate.py: filter recipe_dicts by exclude_recipe_ids set
- image_generation.py: OpenAI gpt-image-1 client with prompt building, b64_json handling
- main.py: StaticFiles mount at /static for generated images
- admin.py: POST /api/admin/trigger-images endpoint for batch generation
- scripts/generate_images.py: CLI for batch image generation
- docker-compose.yml + nginx: volume mounts for static/images persistence
- Verify MealPlanItem.votes ↔ MealPlanVote relationship is correct; no model bug exists
Backend:
- POST /api/ingredients now checks name_lower and aliases before inserting
- Returns existing ingredient on 409 instead of throwing error
Frontend:
- Removed fragile 409-recovery logic from Pantry.tsx handleAdd
- Added aliases field to Ingredient type for case-insensitive matching
Fixes pantry add for ingredients like 'Carrots' whose canonical name is 'Carrot'
- backend: expose POST /api/ingredients on public router so frontend can create ingredients without admin token
- frontend/api: point listIngredients and createIngredient to /api/ingredients
- frontend/pantry: replace ingredient dropdown with searchable text input + fuzzy matching + auto-create
- Dashboard: stack days vertically on mobile and suppress empty meal slots
- Nav: allow wrapping on narrow screens
- MealDetail: responsive hero sizing and padding
- Create backend/app/api/orchestrate.py — new router for workflow steps
(scrape, generate, email, reminder, deadline, finalize) without admin auth.
- Remove orchestrate endpoints from backend/app/api/admin.py.
- Register orchestrate router in main.py under /api/orchestrate.
- Update frontend api/index.ts to call /orchestrate/{step} instead of
/admin/orchestrate/{step}.
This lets family members trigger vote emails without an admin bearer token.
- Add triggerOrchestrate() to API client calling POST /admin/orchestrate/{step}
- Replace dead <button> in Dashboard with VoteEmailButton component:
onClick calls triggerOrchestrate('email'), shows toast spinner + success/error
- backend/app/security.py: require_session() now auto-authenticates by
returning the first family_profile_id from the DB. No cookie or password
needed. Falls back to "bootstrap" sentinel if no FamilyProfile exists.
Admin routes (require_admin) still protected by bearer token.
- frontend/src/api/index.ts: removed 401→/login redirect interceptor
- frontend/src/App.tsx: removed Sign out button, removed /login route and
Login page import
