Marc-André Bombeck ab14fdb6f3 Let an invitation name its sections and offer management
An owner can now narrow a grant to the parts of their record they mean to
share, and can offer the third level. Both decisions are made once, on the
invitation, and neither widens afterwards.

The invite schema takes `scope`: absent or null is the entire record, which
is what every stored grant means and what an owner who does not narrow still
gets. An empty array, a key outside the vocabulary and the whole-record
sentinel are each refused with a 422 naming the field; `inviteGrant` refuses
the same three underneath, and its `invalid_scope` now has an HTTP mapping
instead of falling into the generic refusal.

Offering MANAGE asks for a fresh second factor when the account has one. That
gate resolves through the session cookie and has no Bearer fall-through, so a
token caller is refused first with `sharing.invite.manage_browser_only` rather
than being told it is not authenticated by a route that had just
authenticated it. The consequence is deliberate: management of a health
record is offered from a browser.

The account payload gains `sections` and `level` beside `access` and
`canWrite`, resolved server-side and ordered as the consent screen reads.
`access` was `grant.access === "WRITE" ? "write" : "read"`, which would have
published a grant that can delete entries as read-only; it is a total map
now, so the next level cannot ship silent. The capabilities hook carries both
facts and turns neither into an affordance yet — the edit and delete controls
come back in the release where the routes behind them answer.

The consent surface asks two questions in order rather than laying out a
nineteen-cell grid. The level is three radios, narrowest preselected. What
they can open is two radios, the entire record preselected, and only the
narrow branch expands the eight sections with a sentence each. Both honest
limits are stated above the checkboxes, where the decision is being made: a
section shares everything written in it, and the cross-record surfaces do not
appear for a narrowed grant. Documents carries its own warning, cycle appears
only for an owner who tracks it, and Manage collapses the question to the one
line that answers it.

The Manage sentence says the other person can add, change and remove entries,
including ones the owner entered themselves, and says in the same breath what
it does not reach. The acceptance side gets its own responsibility line rather
than the write one wearing a stronger adjective.

Six locales.

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.
