Medication intake repair

scripts/repair-intake-anomalies.ts repairs the known historic defects in the medication intake ledger (medication_intake_events) and its schedule metadata (medication_schedules):

1. Duplicate dose-slot rows. More than one live row on the same exact (user, medication, scheduled_for) tuple — cross-source duplicates the pre-v1.15.19 write path could mint (e.g. a pending REMINDER row plus a taken API row for the same slot). The duplicate inflates the per-day scheduled count and paints a phantom entry in the history view.
2. Implausible taken_at. Live rows whose taken_at lands more than 7 days before scheduled_for or more than 1 day in the future — typically the residue of a mis-attributed edit before the v1.15.19 taken_at validation landed.
3. Window / times drift (v1.16.1). Schedule rows whose legacy window_start / window_end no longer contains the canonical times_of_day — typically a degenerate 07:00 / 07:00 point window left behind by an old write path while the dose times moved on (e.g. to 09:00 / 21:00). The dose-band model never reads the window once times_of_day exists, but the stale pair kept feeding every legacy read (the pre-v1.16.1 cards painted "next intake 07:00" from it).
4. Stale-anchor pending rows (v1.16.1). Live pending rows (taken_at IS NULL, not skipped, not auto-missed) whose scheduled_for wall-clock HH:mm — evaluated in the user's timezone — matches no current dose anchor of the medication (any schedule's times_of_day entry; window_start for legacy rows without times). These are reminder-minted slots on retired schedule times that linger as phantom open doses in the ledger.

When to use it

• After upgrading to v1.15.19+, when a user reports a compliance rate above 100 %, duplicate entries in the medication history, or a dose shown as taken days away from its slot.
• The compliance rollup counts DISTINCT slots since v1.15.19, so the percentages self-correct on recompute even without running this script. Running it additionally clears the phantom rows from the history view.
• The intake-slot-dedup worker already collapses canonical-slot duplicates at boot and on a daily cron; this script is the manual, immediately-observable fallback and the only path that surfaces the implausible-taken_at rows.

Run a dry-run first

Always. The default mode only reports and never mutates:

# inside the app container (or any checkout) — DATABASE_URL must point
# at the target database
pnpm dlx --package pg --package tsx tsx scripts/repair-intake-anomalies.ts

# scoped to one account
pnpm dlx --package pg --package tsx tsx scripts/repair-intake-anomalies.ts --user <userId>

The script is self-contained: its only import is pg and it reads DATABASE_URL straight from the environment (no dotenv, no @/ path alias, no src/ imports). That matters in the production container — the standalone image ships no project node_modules, so the previous revision died there with Cannot find module 'dotenv/config'. Inside the image pg resolves via NODE_PATH=/opt/pg-boss/node_modules; in a checkout it resolves from the project node_modules; the --package pg --package tsx pins cover any environment with neither. Use pnpm dlx, not bare pnpm tsx — the standalone image also strips tsx.

The dry-run prints every duplicate group (which row would be kept, which would be tombstoned), a table of implausible rows (id, medication, scheduledFor, takenAt, source, timestamps), every schedule whose window has drifted off its times_of_day (with the reconciled bounds it would write), and a table of stale-anchor pending rows.

Applying the fix

pnpm dlx --package pg --package tsx tsx scripts/repair-intake-anomalies.ts --fix

--fix does five things:

• Duplicate groups are collapsed to one winner per slot. Precedence: an actioned row (taken or skipped) beats a pending one; between two taken rows the earlier taken_at wins; ties break deterministically on created_at, then id. Losers are soft-deleted (deleted_at set, sync_version incremented) — the same tombstone shape the delete route writes, so connected clients drop the rows on their next delta-sync. Nothing is ever hard-deleted.

• Implausible taken_at rows are NOT touched. The recorded intent is unknowable, so the operator (or the user) corrects or deletes them in the medication history tab. To soft-delete them wholesale instead, opt in explicitly:

  pnpm dlx --package pg --package tsx tsx scripts/repair-intake-anomalies.ts --fix --tombstone-implausible
  

  --tombstone-implausible is refused without --fix.

• Drifted schedule windows are reconciled to min/max(times_of_day) so the legacy pair stops contradicting the canonical dose times. Overnight windows (window_end < window_start) encode a deliberate wrap and are never touched.

• Stale-anchor pending rows are tombstoned (same soft-delete shape as the duplicate losers). A medication without any derivable anchor (PRN-only / unscheduled) is skipped — there is nothing to compare against.

• Affected compliance rollups are recomputed for every touched (user, medication, day). The script executes the same DISTINCT-slot aggregation SQL the shared helper runs (a verbatim twin of recomputeMedicationComplianceForDay in src/lib/rollups/medication-compliance-rollups.ts — kept inline so the script needs no app imports), so the scheduled/taken counts and the rate self-correct immediately.

The script is idempotent: a second --fix run finds zero duplicate groups and changes nothing. Exit code is 0 on success (including a clean zero-findings run), non-zero on bad arguments or a fatal error.
