Marc-André Bombeck d773f460e5 Tell the four document-summary outcomes apart
Opening a document said "the summary is being prepared" and kept saying it.
The view had one fallback for a null summary column and used it for every
outcome: a document nobody ever enqueued, a missing vision provider, a spent
budget, a withdrawn consent, an unreadable file, a provider error, and a
summary the outbound screen withheld all rendered as work in progress.

The common case is not the screen. The background job is enqueued at exactly
one place — a fresh upload with the auto-read opt-in already on — and no
backfill reaches anything else. Every document uploaded before the toggle went
on has a null column no job will ever fill, and the view promised all of them a
summary that was never coming.

Record the outcome as `summary_state` (migration 0254, additive, defaults to
NONE which is truthful for every existing row) and branch on it. Only PENDING,
set when a job genuinely exists, may claim generation is running. NONE,
WITHHELD and UNAVAILABLE each say what happened and offer to generate one.

The withhold keeps its rule and loses its dead end. Blocked prose is still
never shown and never stored — only the fact of the refusal is kept, and it is
no longer terminal, so asking again re-runs the gauntlet. That was the original
intent; leaving the column null defeated it, because null read as "generating"
and the guard meant nothing would ever overwrite it.

The on-demand summary now persists what it produces. It is the only repair path
for the documents the job never ran for, and re-deriving the same paragraph on
every open costs a provider call for nothing. Generation is still only ever a
click — nothing runs because a view rendered. Transcription stays session-only.

Also drop the "read by AI" line from the detail footer.

HealthLog API Spec

openapi.yaml is the canonical OpenAPI 3.1 description for the HealthLog Next.js API. It is the source of truth for the native iOS client's DTO codegen.

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

Preview locally

Open an interactive Redoc preview in your browser:

npx @redocly/cli preview docs/api/openapi.yaml

Generate static HTML for sharing:

npx @redocly/cli build-docs docs/api/openapi.yaml --output docs/api/index.html

Validate

npx @redocly/cli lint docs/api/openapi.yaml

The spec is expected to be lint-clean (errors = 0). Some warnings are intentional:

  • no-server-example.com — http://localhost:3000 is the dev server.
  • operation-2xx-response / operation-4xx-response — webhook + redirect endpoints intentionally omit one or the other.
  • no-unused-components — ReminderPhase is exposed for client codegen even though no path response references it directly.

Layout

  • info — title, version (mirrored from package.json), description.
  • servers — production https://healthlog.bombeck.io plus http://localhost:3000 for local development.
  • tags — domain groupings (Auth, Measurements, Medications, Mood, Dashboard, Insights, Achievements, DoctorReport, Integrations, User, Tokens, Notifications, Onboarding, Health, Settings, Analytics, Export, AuditLog, Monitoring, Webhooks, Ingest, Admin).
  • securitySchemes:
    • bearerAuth — long-lived hlk_* API tokens issued via POST /api/tokens. Required on /api/ingest/medication.
    • 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 all routes plus the underlying Prisma models (e.g. Measurement, Medication, MedicationIntakeEvent, MoodEntry, User, DashboardLayout, ApiEnvelope, ApiError).
  • paths — all routes from src/app/api/**/route.ts, including the /api/admin/* family which is tagged Admin and marked internal.

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. Mirror the change in openapi.yaml. Keep operationId camelCase and stable — the iOS codegen keys off it.
  3. Run npx @redocly/cli lint docs/api/openapi.yaml and resolve all errors. Warnings are tolerated when documented above.
  4. Bump info.version if the change is breaking for clients.
