DB migration compat / Forward-compat — Current branch code with ${{ needs.check-migrations-changed.outputs.base_branch }} branch migrations (push) Has been cancelled
Added functionality to log request timings in development mode. Introduced a WeakMap to track request start times and log the elapsed time along with the request method, pathname, and response status after each request. This improves observability during development.
## What
Removes the Next.js compatibility shim layer that the ElysiaJS backend
migration (#1630) introduced, replacing it with standard Web APIs and
de-aliased local runtime helpers. Addresses N2D4's review note on #1630:
> i think we should create a followup PR which cleans these up and uses
the elysia methods directly — so we don't need a nextjs compat layer
forever
Stacked on `migrate-backend-to-elysiajs`.
## Changes
**`next/server` → standard Web APIs (eliminated)**
- `NextRequest` → `Request`, `NextResponse.json()` → `Response.json()`,
`new NextResponse(...)` → `new Response(...)`, `req.nextUrl` → `new
URL(req.url)`
- Hot path (`smart-route-handler`) computes `const requestUrl = new
URL(req.url)` once
- Deleted `lib/next-compat/server.tsx`; rewrote
`server/next-request-shim.ts` → `server/backend-request.ts`
(`createBackendRequest`, returns a plain `Request`)
**`next/headers` + `next/navigation` → `lib/runtime/` (de-aliased)**
- `git mv`'d the real runtime helpers (`headers`, `navigation`,
`request-context`) out of `lib/next-compat/` into `lib/runtime/`,
repointing all consumers to `@/lib/runtime/*`
- The cookie/header/redirect mechanism (AsyncLocalStorage + thrown
redirect errors, driven by `app.ts`) is unchanged — it was only *named*
after Next, never actually Next
**Config + cleanup**
- Dropped the `next/*` path aliases from `tsconfig.json`,
`vitest.config.ts`, `tsdown.config.ts` (removed `nextCompatPlugin`, the
alias map, and the `next` bundling special-case)
- Deleted `fetch.d.ts` and removed the no-op `next: { revalidate }`
fetch option in `changelog/route.tsx` (caching never worked outside the
Next runtime)
- Converted the unreferenced `proxy.tsx` so it still compiles (it's dead
code superseded by `server/middleware.ts` — deletion candidate, left out
of this PR)
No `next/*` imports remain in the backend.
## Verification
- `tsc --noEmit` — passes (exit 0)
- `eslint` on all changed files — clean
## Notes / not in scope
- This removes the **`next/*` façade**. It keeps the underlying
ALS-based request-context mechanism rather than threading Elysia's
native context (`set.cookie`, `set.redirect`) into every handler —
that's a much larger change touching handler signatures across the whole
API surface.
- One internal redirect digest string is still `"NEXT_REDIRECT"`
(matched in both `navigation.tsx` and `app.ts`); renamable but cosmetic.
<!-- This is an auto-generated description by cubic. -->
---
## Summary by cubic
Remove the `next/*` compatibility layer and switch the backend to
standard Web APIs. This simplifies handlers and config while keeping the
ALS request context and redirect behavior unchanged.
- **Refactors**
- Replaced `NextRequest`/`NextResponse` and `req.nextUrl` with
`Request`/`Response` and `new URL(req.url)` across handlers, proxies,
health/unsubscribe routes, and IDP endpoints.
- Moved runtime helpers to `@/lib/runtime/*` (`headers`, `navigation`,
`request-context`) and updated imports.
- Added `server/backend-request.ts` to build backend `Request`s with
merged headers; removed `server/next-request-shim.ts` and
`lib/next-compat/server.tsx`.
- Updated proxy rewrite to set `x-middleware-rewrite`; IDP routes now
return `Response` directly with 307/308 mapping.
- Removed the `next:{revalidate}` fetch option; deleted
`lib/next-compat/fetch.d.ts`.
- Dropped `next/*` aliases from `tsconfig`, `tsdown`, and `vitest`;
route registry/types now use `Request`.
- **Migration**
- Import from `@/lib/runtime/headers` and `@/lib/runtime/navigation`
instead of `next/headers` and `next/navigation`.
- Route handlers should accept `Request` and use `new URL(req.url)` for
URL parsing.

## Summary
New "CLI Auth" app registered in `apps-config.ts` (alpha, parent:
authentication) and `apps-frontend.tsx` (TerminalWindowIcon, `/cli-auth`
route).
**Backend** — `GET /internal/cli-auth`:
- Queries `CliAuthAttempt` (last 50) with computed status from
`usedAt`/`refreshToken`/`expiresAt`
- Joins claimed `refreshToken` values against `ProjectUserRefreshToken`
to find active CLI sessions + user info via `ProjectUser`
- Returns `{ summary, recent_attempts, active_cli_users }`
**Dashboard** — `/cli-auth/page-client.tsx`:
- Fetches via `hexclaveAppInternalsSymbol` →
`sendRequest("/internal/cli-auth", {}, "admin")`
- Renders KPI cards (total/completed/expired/active), active sessions
list with last-active time, and recent attempts with status badges
- Expired sessions collapsed by default under `<details>`

## Summary by cubic
Adds an alpha CLI Auth dashboard to track CLI login attempts and active
refresh tokens, powered by a hidden admin-only endpoint.
- **New Features**
- Registers `cli-auth` under Authentication; adds `/cli-auth` route with
TerminalWindowIcon and docs link.
- Backend `GET /internal/cli-auth`: summary stats (incl. used_attempts),
last 50 attempts with computed status, and active CLI users by joining
CLI-issued refresh tokens (bounded).
- Dashboard fetches via admin request and shows KPIs, active sessions
(last-active/expiry), and recent attempts; expired sessions are
collapsed.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Use per-project admin app (`useAdminApp`) to avoid
ADMIN_AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED and ensure correct tenancy scoping.
- Resolve primary emails for active sessions via `ContactChannel` join
to prevent 500s.
- Fix badges by using `DesignBadge` label prop and set expired to red;
add default cases in status switches.
- Bound token lookup to last 200 CLI-issued tokens and use a separate
COUNT(*) for accurate `active_tokens`.
- Align loading skeleton grid with the KPI layout.
- Docs: add `cli-auth` icon.

## Summary
Threads `arePlanLimitsEnforced()` from the backend through the
plan-usage API response so the dashboard can hide all usage limit
banners when `HEXCLAVE_DISABLE_PLAN_LIMITS=true`.
Backend adds `are_plan_limits_enforced` to `planUsageResponseSchema`
(`.optional().default(true)` for backward compat with older backends) →
SDK surfaces it as `PlanUsage.arePlanLimitsEnforced` with `?? true`
runtime fallback (since `getPlanUsage()` returns raw JSON without yup
validation) → banner components early-return `null` when
`!arePlanLimitsEnforced`.
For the projects page (outside admin-app context, no project selected),
a server action reads the env var directly via
`getEnvVariable(\"STACK_DISABLE_PLAN_LIMITS\", \"false\")`.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Added support for a “plan limits enforced” flag to control messaging
across usage and billing-related screens.
* Projects and team invitation capacity checks now respect the same
enforcement toggle (including admin-seat invitation blocking).
* **Bug Fixes**
* Limit banners and “plan limit exceeded” alerts now only render when
enforcement is enabled (and overage/threshold conditions are met).
* Updated usage payload handling to default to enforcement enabled when
the flag is missing; added/updated tests for both enabled and disabled
scenarios.

## Problem
Session replay batches are uploaded as **raw, uncompressed JSON**. A
single large rrweb full snapshot (>900 KB) is dropped client-side in
`SessionRecorder._flush`, and any batch near the server's 1 MB body
limit is rejected. Meanwhile the **analytics events** path right next
door already gzips on the wire (`encodeAnalyticsBody` + a server-side
gunzip with zip-bomb guards) — replays just never got the same
treatment.
Notably, `dev` was already **red** on the SDK test `sends a single
oversized event alone without dropping it` (the code dropped at 900 KB
while the test expected the event to be sent). This change makes that
test pass.
## What this does
Ports the proven analytics compression pattern to session replays:
- **`packages/shared` (client transport):** generalize
`encodeAnalyticsBody` → `encodeGzipJsonBody` and wire it into
`sendSessionReplayBatch`. Replays now gzip via native
`CompressionStream` (`application/octet-stream`), with the same
fallbacks: keepalive flushes send plain JSON (so the request survives
page teardown), and a missing/throwing `CompressionStream` (Safari <
16.4) degrades to plain JSON.
- **`packages/template` (SDK recorder):** replace the 900 KB hard-drop
with `MAX_SINGLE_EVENT_BYTES = 8 MB`, kept in sync with the server's
decompressed cap. The wire is gzipped downstream, so an oversized single
event is now sent compressed instead of discarded; only an event that
could never fit *decompressed* is dropped.
- **`apps/backend` (route):** add `maybeDecodeBinaryBody` (gunzip with a
1 MB compressed cap + 8 MB `maxOutputLength` zip-bomb guard) via a
`.transform` on the batch route body schema. Plain-JSON bodies pass
through untouched.
## Why gzip / CompressionStream
Benchmarked on a real rrweb capture (Puppeteer, rrweb 1.1.3): a **1.09
MiB full snapshot → 134 KiB gzip (~8×) in ~6.6 ms**. Native
`CompressionStream` adds **0 bundle bytes** and was faster than fflate.
This mirrors what PostHog (gzip, native `CompressionStream` + fflate
fallback) and Sentry (fflate deflate in a worker) both ship — both rely
on compression, not splitting, as the primary mechanism for large
events.
## Tests
- **Client SDK** (`client-interface.test.ts`): gzip+octet-stream on
non-keepalive (round-trip + size assert), plain JSON on keepalive, and
both `CompressionStream`-unavailable fallbacks.
- **SDK recorder** (`session-replay.test.ts`): existing oversized-event
test now passes; new test that a >8 MB event is dropped while a
following normal event still sends.
- **Backend e2e** (`session-replays.test.ts`): gzipped happy path
(`compressed < 1MB < raw`), invalid gzip → 400, oversized compressed →
413, zip-bomb → 400. Verified passing against a live local backend.
## Verification notes
- `@hexclave/shared` + `@hexclave/template` typecheck pass; touched
files lint clean; SDK unit tests pass.
- Two **pre-existing, unrelated** local failures (each confirmed by
stashing this change and re-running on clean `dev`): a backend typecheck
error in `oauth/ssrf-protection.test.ts` (`NODE_ENV` read-only), and 3
session-replay **quota** e2e tests failing in the payments
`setSessionReplayItemQuantity` setup helper.
## Follow-up (out of scope)
The keepalive/unload path still sends uncompressed (64 KB browser
keepalive cap), so a very large final batch on page exit can still be
lost — not addressed here.
<!-- This is an auto-generated description by cubic. -->

## Summary by cubic
Gzip session replay batches so large rrweb snapshots are sent instead of
dropped. Keepalive flushes cap single-event size to avoid 413s on page
unload, and limits now include a 1 KiB envelope margin to match server
caps.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Client (`@hexclave/shared`): generalized `encodeAnalyticsBody` →
`encodeGzipJsonBody`; gzip via native `CompressionStream` for
`/session-replays/batch`; keepalive and missing/throwing
`CompressionStream` fall back to JSON.
- SDK recorder (`@hexclave/template`): normal flushes allow a single
event up to `MAX_SINGLE_EVENT_BYTES = 8 MiB - 1 KiB`; keepalive flushes
cap single-event size at `MAX_BATCH_UNCOMPRESSED_BYTES = 900 KB`; send
oversized events alone and rely on gzip; drop only above those
thresholds; log a distinct 413 warning with the count of buffered events
dropped and stop the loop.
- Backend: gunzip `application/octet-stream` bodies with caps (`1 MB`
compressed, `8 MiB` decompressed); invalid gzip → 400; oversized
compressed → 413; plain JSON passes through.
- Tests: added client encoding tests for session replays; SDK tests for
>8 MiB drop, keepalive drop, and 413 warning; backend e2e for gzip,
invalid gzip, oversized compressed, and zip-bomb. The oversized-event
SDK test now passes.
- **Refactors**
- Hoisted shared test helpers and trimmed comments.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Session replay batch uploads can now be automatically gzipped (when
supported) to reduce request size; analytics batch uploads use the same
behavior.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Improved handling of gzipped upload bodies, with stricter validation
and safer size/decompression limits to reject invalid payloads and “zip
bomb” scenarios.
* Updated session replay buffering so oversized events are dropped only
when they exceed decompression constraints, while allowing later events
to upload.
* **Tests**
* Added client, server, and end-to-end coverage for gzip/keepalive
behavior and limit enforcement.

## What
The `/internal/analytics/query` route accepts an `include_all_branches`
flag (defaults to `false`). Previously, passing `true` threw a
`HexclaveAssertionError`. Since the flag is reachable from user input,
that assertion surfaced as a 500 / error-tracking noise rather than a
clean response.
This makes the flag a **no-op** for now and documents the intended
behavior with a TODO.
## Behavior
- Regardless of `include_all_branches`, queries remain scoped to the
current branch via the ClickHouse row policy that filters on
`SQL_branch_id` (set from `auth.tenancy.branchId`).
- Callers passing `include_all_branches=true` will still only receive
data for the **current branch** until cross-branch filtering is
implemented.
## Note / follow-up
Because the flag is silently ignored, a caller asking for "all branches"
gets single-branch results with no signal. The TODO tracks implementing
real cross-branch querying. Flagging in case we'd rather surface a
proper client-facing error in the interim instead of a silent no-op.
<!-- This is an auto-generated description by cubic. -->
---
## Summary by cubic
Made the `include_all_branches` flag on `/internal/analytics/query` a
no-op so `true` no longer throws and avoids 500s from user input.
Branching isn’t implemented yet, so queries always scope to the current
branch via the ClickHouse `SQL_branch_id` row policy; TODO added for
real cross-branch querying.

## Summary
Two related email changes:
### 1. Send to arbitrary email addresses
The `sendEmail` SDK function and `POST /api/v1/emails/send-email` now
accept a third recipient selector, **`emails: string[]`**, mutually
exclusive (XOR) with `user_ids` and `all_users`. These recipients don't
have to belong to a user — they're mapped to the existing internal
`custom-emails` recipient type (no associated user object, can't
unsubscribe, so intended for transactional mail).
- Response `results` items are now `{ user_id?, email? }`; the `emails`
path returns `{ email }`.
- Validation message updated to `Exactly one of user_ids, all_users, or
emails must be provided`.
- Recipient addresses are validated with the shared `emailSchema`.
### 2. Run Emailable on managed custom domains
`LowLevelEmailConfig.type` is widened `'shared' | 'standard'` →
`'shared' | 'managed' | 'standard'`, and `getEmailConfig` returns
`'managed'` for the managed-Resend branch. The Emailable deliverability
check now runs for **shared** and **managed**, and is skipped for
**`standard`** (a customer's own SMTP server or Resend API key).
**Why:** managed domains send through our single Resend *account*
(per-domain scoped keys, but shared account → account-level bounce
penalties are collateral across managed customers), so we own that
reputation. With a custom SMTP server or the customer's own Resend key,
the customer owns their deliverability, so we don't second-guess their
recipients or spend Emailable checks on their volume. The shared
dev-email wrapper remains `shared`-only.
## Tests
- `send-email.test.ts`: added arbitrary-recipient send
(single/multiple), empty-array, and validation cases (both-selectors,
no-selector, invalid email); updated the exactly-one-of snapshot.
**24/24 pass.**
- New `emails/deliverability-gating.test.ts`: shared & managed skip an
undeliverable address (`LIKELY_NOT_DELIVERABLE`), custom SMTP still
sends. **3/3 pass.**
> Note: `email-queue.test.ts` has 2 pre-existing snapshot failures (a
`margin:0rem`→`margin:0` CSS normalization in rendered email HTML) that
are unrelated to this change — confirmed by reproducing them on `dev`
with these changes stashed.
<!-- This is an auto-generated description by cubic. -->

## Summary by cubic
Adds support for sending emails to arbitrary addresses and enables
Emailable checks for managed domains to protect shared sending
reputation. The API/SDK now accept `emails: string[]` as a recipient
selector, and deliverability checks run on shared and managed sending.
- New Features
- API/SDK: `emails: string[]` recipient selector (XOR with
`user_ids`/`all_users`) in `sendEmail` and POST
/api/v1/emails/send-email. Results return `{ email }` for this path;
addresses validated via `emailSchema`. Recipients map to
transactional-only “custom-emails” (no user, no unsubscribe).
- Deliverability: email config adds `'managed'`; `getEmailConfig`
returns it for managed Resend domains. Emailable check runs for `shared`
and `managed`; skipped for `standard` (custom SMTP or customer Resend
key).

## Problem
The QA reviewer (`apps/backend/src/lib/ai/qa-reviewer.ts`) extracted the
model's JSON verdict from free-form text with a greedy `/\{[\s\S]*\}/`
regex followed by `JSON.parse`. Whenever Haiku wrapped its JSON in prose
or tool-call text, the captured slice was malformed and `JSON.parse`
threw:
```
SyntaxError: Expected property name or '}' in JSON at position 1 (line 1 column 2)
```
This is Sentry issue **STACK-BACKEND-18F** — **218 occurrences in the
last 30 days** (262 all-time), still ongoing. It's caught (background QA
task, 0 users impacted) but noisy, and on failure the review is silently
marked failed.
### Root cause
The brace-matching heuristic assumes the first `{` in the response
starts the JSON object and the last `}` ends it. Any stray brace in
surrounding prose (a preamble like `"Here's my review {note}: {...}"`,
unquoted/single-quoted keys, or `<function_calls>` tool text) breaks the
extraction. The reviewer output is non-deterministic, so a low steady
fraction of reviews fail.
## Fix
Switch to schema-enforced **structured output** via `generateText`'s
`output: Output.object({ schema })` (AI SDK v6), which keeps the
existing tool-calling loop while constraining the final result to a
validated object. The verdict is read directly off `result.output`,
removing the regex, `JSON.parse`, and manual `typeof` shape validation.
- Net **−12 lines**.
- Trimmed the now-redundant "respond with ONLY valid JSON … {inline
schema}" block from the system prompt (the schema enforces structure);
kept the semantic guidance (flag types, scoring, `needsHumanReview`
rule).
- Kept the existing `overallScore` clamp.
## Verification
- **Typecheck** (`tsc --noEmit`): clean.
- **Lint** (`eslint`): clean.
- **Live end-to-end**: ran the real Haiku-4.5 reviewer against the exact
prompt/input that failed **11/15** on the old path → **15/15** return a
validated object on the new path, zero parse failures.
## Follow-ups (out of scope, noted during investigation)
- These Sentry events leak a live access token + publishable key into
the request-context payload; the OpenRouter key sits in plaintext
(commented) in `apps/backend/.env.local`. Worth rotating/scrubbing.
- Consider capturing `result.text` on the failure path so any residual
structured-output failures are inspectable (currently discarded).
<!-- This is an auto-generated description by cubic. -->
---
## Summary by cubic
Replaced regex/JSON.parse extraction in the QA reviewer with
schema-enforced structured output using `ai`’s `generateText` +
`Output.object`. Also defaulted `improvementSuggestions` to an empty
string to avoid false failures when the model omits suggestions.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Added a `zod` verdict schema and read result from `result.output`.
- Removed greedy JSON extraction and manual shape checks.
- Defaulted `improvementSuggestions` to "" to tolerate omission and
prevent false `needsHumanReview` verdicts.
- Slimmed prompt by dropping “respond with ONLY JSON” block; kept review
guidance.
- Kept `overallScore` clamp; tool-calling loop unchanged.
- Verification: typecheck/lint clean; 15/15 successful runs on a
previously failing case.
