A refused client had nothing to back off against. `rateLimitHeaders()`
emitted `X-RateLimit-Remaining` and an ISO `X-RateLimit-Reset`, no
`Retry-After` and no cap, and only about 70 of the 199 route files that
consult a limiter attached even those two. The rest answered with a bare
prose envelope, including every endpoint an offline replay queue hits:
the four batch ingests, `/api/sync/changes` and `/api/auth/refresh`. A
first-run Apple Health import trips the 60-per-minute batch ceiling
reliably, and the only strategy left to the client was a blind backoff.
Threading headers through 129 handlers is 129 edits the next new route
forgets, so the verdict is carried instead: `checkRateLimit` records it
in a request-scoped cell and `apiHandler` dresses any 429 that leaves
without headers. A route that already built its own is left alone —
`Retry-After` is the presence test, and it comes from the same builder.
`Retry-After` is whole seconds rounding UP (RFC 9110 §10.2.3), floored
at zero. `X-RateLimit-Limit` is new and needs the cap, so the limiter
result carries it. `X-RateLimit-Reset` keeps its ISO form: it is the
wrong convention for the name, but it is on the wire today and changing
it is a decision of its own.
The cell lives in its own leaf module because 177 test files replace
`@/lib/rate-limit` wholesale with a mock factory, and `apiHandler` must
not depend on anything those factories stand in for.
The dose-history purge was the one destructive verb in the intake family
that removed rows outright. Both siblings, the single-event DELETE and the
bulk delete, stamp `deletedAt` and bump `syncVersion`; the purge called
`deleteMany`, so a mis-tap was final and a client offline at purge time kept
every row forever, because a row that no longer exists produces no tombstone
for the sync feed to carry. It tombstones now, scoped to live rows so a
second purge counts zero. No inventory refund: a purge wipes a history as
bookkeeping, and refunding every dose ever taken would inflate the current
container count instead.
The manual water quick-add and the lab-result un-delete both wrote health
data and reached only the wide event, which expires. Months later nothing
could answer who put a day's total there or who brought a reading back, and
with a second person able to act on a shared record that question has a
second possible answer. Both write a durable row now, named after the
neighbours they sit beside.
The refused-delegation audit comment claimed the row was written for the
owner's benefit. It is not: it is filed under the caller, it is only written
for a header refusal, and a header names an account the caller merely
asserts. Filing under that claim would let anyone write rows into any
account's activity feed by naming it. The comment says what the row is now,
and points at `recordDelegatedAccess`, which is the half the owner does see.
Two comments in the biomarker surfaces still claimed the `SetNull` foreign
key left the readings behind when a marker is deleted. That stopped being
true when delete became a "drop this and its history" action and the
confirmation copy was rewritten in six locales to say so.
The purge route gains a call-shape assertion rather than a count assertion,
because a count comes back identical from a `deleteMany`. The lab restore
route had no test at all and now has one.
The water quick-add validated calendar realism but never the upper day bound the
batch route applies, so a far-future day was accepted and — every read filters
`day >= since` with no ceiling — became the permanent latest day on the settings
card and the dashboard tile. Hoist the bound into one shared helper both routes
use.
`mode: "add"` bounded a single request to the catalog's plausible daily max but
nothing across requests, so repeated quick-adds drove the stored total
arbitrarily high while the batch route enforced the same cap strictly. Clamp
after the increment so the write stays atomic.
Thiamin's cap sat at exactly 1000 mg while its PRI is exactly 1.0 mg, so a
microgram-read-as-milligram sample landed on precisely the cap and the `>`
comparison let it through. 500 still clears any real supplement dose.
NutrientIntakeDay was in no export path, which contradicted the schema's own
reason for denormalising the unit column. Carry it in the full backup with its
unit and source — source is part of the composite key, so without it a restore
cannot tell a manual entry from a synced day total.
NutrientIntakeDay's composite primary key gains `source` (migration
0249_nutrient_intake_day_source): a manual water entry and the
Apple-synced day total now live as two rows instead of the manual
write being silently clobbered by the next Apple last-writer-wins
sync. Every existing row already defaults to source=APPLE_HEALTH, so
the migration is a pure PK-constraint change with no data rewrite.
- POST /api/nutrients/batch keeps writing the APPLE_HEALTH row,
byte-identical upsert semantics against the wider key.
- GET /api/nutrients sums amounts within (nutrient, day) across
sources before folding into the window summary.
- POST /api/nutrients/water (new): manual water quick-add, add/set
modes against the MANUAL row only, module-gated, rate-limited,
idempotency-key aware, hard-evicts the dashboard snapshot cache.
- GET /api/nutrients/daily (new): dense per-day series for one
nutrient (summed across sources) plus the EFSA reference resolved
against the caller's profile sex — omitted when sex is unknown.
- catalog.ts gains resolveNutrientReference(), the sex-resolution
helper both new routes and the insights cards share.
docs/api/openapi.yaml regenerated for the two new routes.
