Marc-André Bombeck 625763982b Narrow a spent email budget to the field, and record both refusals
A refused address change returned before the update was built, so every
other field in the same request went with it. The settings form posts
the whole profile at once, so somebody who had spent the budget could
not save a timezone or a height for an hour and was told it was about
email addresses. The address is now dropped and the rest of the save
lands, reported through the existing rejectedFields key with the code
`rate_limited`; the 429 is kept for a request that asked for nothing
else, where a partial success would be a lie.

The comment claiming an audit row beside each question was inverted:
both refusals returned before the row is written, so only the answers
that told the caller nothing were being recorded. The two answers worth
detecting write their own rows now.

The stored address is normalised before the "has it changed" comparison.
Registration writes it as typed, so an account created with capitals did
not match its own address and paid for its first ordinary save.

HealthLog API Spec

openapi.yaml is the OpenAPI 3.1 description for the HealthLog Next.js API and the source of truth for the native iOS client's DTO codegen. The file is generated: pnpm openapi:generate emits it from the Zod registry under src/lib/openapi/ (registry.ts plus the route modules in src/lib/openapi/routes/). Do not edit the YAML by hand; the next generation overwrites it, and CI (openapi:check) fails the build when the committed YAML drifts from the registry.

The MCP server is documented separately — it is a distinct contract over JSON-RPC, not part of the REST OpenAPI spec:

The spec is expected to be lint-clean (errors = 0). Warnings such as no-server-example.com for the localhost dev server are tolerated; re-run the lint to see what it produces against the current file before treating a warning as a regression.

Layout

  • info — title, description, and version mirrored automatically from package.json at generation time. Never bump it by hand.
  • servers — https://healthlog.example.com as the self-hosted placeholder plus http://localhost:3000 for local development.
  • tags — domain groupings; the current set lives at the top of the generated file (Auth, Measurements, Medications, Mood, Analytics, Insights, Consent, Dashboard, Notifications, Devices, Export, Sync, Cycle, MeasurementReminders, Labs, Illness, Documents, Records, Admin, Meta, Retired).
  • securitySchemes:
    • bearerAuth — hlk_* API tokens. A scope grants what it names and nothing adjacent, so where a token comes from decides what it reaches:

      • a completed password / passkey / refresh exchange mints the cookie-equivalent ["*"] token the native client carries;
      • a medication's own API-endpoint toggle mints medication:ingest plus medication:<id>:ingest, the pair /api/ingest/medication gates on;
      • POST /api/mcp/tokens mints health:read (optionally plus health:write), audience-bound to /mcp and refused on REST writes;
      • POST /api/tokens/measurements mints measurements:write, accepted by POST /api/measurements and POST /api/measurements/batch only, on the holder's own record only.

      POST /api/tokens is not among them — that generic mint was removed in v1.30.17. The path still lists (GET) and revokes (DELETE /api/tokens/{id}) every token above, whichever surface issued it.

    • sessionCookie — HttpOnly healthlog_session cookie set by the password and passkey login flows. Used by the web app and any iOS client running inside a web view.

  • components.schemas — DTOs for the documented routes plus the underlying Prisma models (e.g. Measurement, Medication, MedicationIntakeEvent, MoodEntry, User, DashboardLayout, ApiEnvelope, ApiError).
  • paths — the client-facing REST surface. Not every src/app/api/**/route.ts is in the contract: most /api/admin/* routes, the OAuth connect/callback legs, and the webhook surfaces are not documented here. The Retired tag lists removed paths that answer 410 Gone.

Conventions

  • Successful responses use the envelope { data, error: null }.
  • Error responses use the envelope { data: null, error: '<message>' }.
  • Pagination uses limit + offset query parameters and a meta: { total, limit, offset } block on the response.
  • All timestamps are ISO 8601 / RFC 3339 (format: date-time) in UTC.
  • IDs are CUIDs (opaque strings).

Updating the spec

When adding or changing routes:

  1. Update the relevant route handler under src/app/api/**/route.ts.
  2. Change the Zod schemas and their .meta() registrations under src/lib/openapi/ (registry entry plus the matching module in src/lib/openapi/routes/). Keep operationId camelCase and stable; the iOS codegen keys off it.
  3. Run pnpm openapi:generate and commit the regenerated openapi.yaml alongside the schema change. CI's openapi:check fails on drift.
  4. Never edit the YAML directly and never bump info.version by hand; the version follows package.json at generation time.
