# JobTracker master programme progress

Updated: 2026-08-30

## 2026-08-29 audit implementation programme

### Completed

- Introduced shared application spacing tokens for 16px mobile gutters, 24px tablet/desktop gutters, 32px wide-screen gutters, 24px section rhythm, and 16–20px card padding. `AppShell` and the first redesigned surfaces consume these tokens.
- Reworked the Dashboard around today's prioritized actions. Empty accounts no longer render zero-value metrics, ten empty funnel stages, empty time-in-stage, company, skill, or activity panels. The activity SVG now scales to its container instead of requiring a clipped fixed-width mobile canvas.
- Made onboarding dismissible per account/browser while preserving the checklist until it is completed or dismissed.
- Made Settings use a compact section selector at mobile widths, kept tabs for larger screens, narrowed the content column, and removed its duplicate in-page title. Newly touched settings copy is localized in English and Norwegian Bokmål.
- Replaced the ordinary-user Google configuration variable instruction with a human-readable unavailable state.
- Made Playwright independent of nested `npm` calls and accidental system `.NET` ordering. The E2E launcher resolves `DOTNET_HOST_PATH`, `DOTNET_ROOT`, or the user-local SDK before falling back to PATH and invokes Next/Playwright through the current Node runtime.
- Made application CV matching language-aware. It detects/normalizes the advert and linked-CV languages, uses an already-saved English advert translation for an English CV when available, never starts a translation or mutates either document during a match read, and tells the user when a cross-language comparison is translated or limited.
- Expanded the shared deterministic keyword filter to remove Norwegian recruitment filler including `både`, `del`, `dnbs`, `faglig`, `får`, `god`, `hos`, and `utvikling` instead of presenting those words as CV gaps.
- Split the Career Workspace into Overview, Career Profile, and Import Review destinations. Navigation is URL-backed, uses tabs above mobile widths and a labelled select at 375px, and preserves unsaved editor state while changing sections. Import diagnostics no longer force users to scroll through the normal profile editor.
- Removed the duplicate Career Workspace title inside the Overview content; the shared application shell remains the single page-level heading.
- Forced local Next development and Playwright's non-export server onto webpack after reproducing a Next 16 Turbopack panic (`Next.js package not found`) with the bundled portable Node runtime.
- Localized the Job Workspace recruiter-status suggestion and strategy snapshot end to end, including status labels, action buttons, empty/loading outcomes, queued-operation feedback, and both English and Norwegian Bokmål copy.
- Improved the Job Workspace overview card grid so compact screens use one readable column, tablets use two, and wide screens use five without leaving a cramped orphan card.
- Moved the remaining shared shell navigation labels into the global locale catalogue so sidebar and mobile-navigation controls announce themselves in the selected language.
- Localized the application checklist from stable system keys rather than persisted English text. Categories, generated tasks, descriptions, progress, errors, tooltips, and accessible reorder/delete names now switch between English and Bokmål while user-authored task text remains untouched.
- Localized Cover Letter, CV attachment, application-draft, and Interview Prep failure states and document-language selectors. Interview categories now derive from stable category keys while user-authored questions and answers remain unchanged.
- Reused the checklist's stable system-key translation mapping for the Overview's recommended next action, preventing the English backend seed text from leaking into a Bokmål workspace.
- Corrected the CV Match source caption to interpolate the selected CV name once, localized known match bands, and made intelligence/timeline load failures and dates respect the selected UI locale.
- Finished the Career Profile import/review localization pass: queue, cancel, retry, diff, confidence, destructive, save-state, completeness, link-editor, language-selector, and version-history controls now use the global English/Bokmål catalogue while imported CV values remain unchanged.
- Localized backend-owned career completeness labels through one shared UI mapping so Overview and Profile display Bokmål without changing the API contract or stored profile data.
- Removed the remaining mojibake from the translation catalogue, including account email, Microsoft relink, account-deletion, and learning-path messages.
- Localized the Operations and Notifications activity page controls, dates, progress accessibility labels, empty/error/loading states, cancellation feedback, and retry/dismiss actions in English and Norwegian Bokmål.
- Localized Job Discovery across search, source guidance, retry/empty/loading states, result sorting, vacancy metadata, locale-aware dates, and save/view actions.
- Localized Connected Accounts and the shared email-provider connection controls, validation, OAuth/IMAP feedback, connection states, and accessible form labels without translating provider names or user email addresses.
- Localized the consolidated Job Email hub across provider status, search/filter controls, saved drafts, compose/reply flows, destructive confirmations, send safety states, message metadata, pagination, and failure handling. Persisted subjects, bodies, company names, roles, addresses, and provider names remain unchanged.
- Corrected the Job Email Direction and Link State controls so their visible labels are programmatically associated with the selects, and removed the remaining mojibake separators/loading text from the workflow.
- Localized the complete public landing experience—hero, previews, feature cards, workflow, plan capabilities, CTAs, accessibility text, and footer—while retaining the server-aligned Free/Pro plan structure and commercial-terms safeguards.
- Reused the shared EN/NO language control on the unauthenticated landing page, so language can be changed before sign-in and persists through the existing locale mechanism.
- Finished the remaining active CV Builder format labels: long-document page counts, US Letter naming, and localized long/short date examples now follow the selected UI language.
- Localized the Admin System runtime and CV benchmark diagnostics, including probe/email failures, model/Ollama state, parser findings, benchmark summaries, fallback guidance, and locale-aware timestamps while leaving runtime/provider/file values untouched.
- Consolidated active list/dashboard/Kanban/reminder loading and failure presentation through the shared resource notice. Retry/progress accessibility follows EN/NB, duplicate fallback text is suppressed, and Kanban drag/keyboard announcements are localized.
- Migrated Admin Audit to the shared retryable resource state so an unavailable API is no longer misreported as an empty log. Audit actions/dates, notification-setting feedback, profile-load fallbacks, and CV extraction run notifications now follow EN/NB while stored event/profile content remains unchanged.
- Localized the pre-authentication security-check label and the embedded Turnstile challenge language, so switching to Bokmål no longer leaves the verification widget in English.
- Localized the remaining active helper defaults in the admin SMTP test form, pasted-email importer, and image-crop alternative text.
- Restored the local Python 3.12 toolchain and both virtual environments; the AI sidecar now passes 26/26 tests. Added a Next.js-compatible ESLint 9 flat configuration, strict zero-warning scripts, and a patched CommonJS-compatible `brace-expansion` override. The lint gate passes with zero findings and npm audit reports zero vulnerabilities.
- Pinned the repository to .NET SDK 9.0.317, generated content-hashed transitive NuGet locks for the API and test project, and made CI restores fail on lock drift. Locked restore and backend 719/719 pass; the current NuGet graph has no known vulnerable packages.
- Rebuilt the active developer/operator documentation around the actual Next.js 16/.NET 9 application, replaced CRA and `npm start` guidance, separated normal and Playwright ports, corrected React Router 7 and the SQLite/MariaDB provider matrix, removed the obsolete npm peer override, and verified the documented clean install, lint, test, build and locked-restore commands.
- Began the JT-019 schema-ownership retirement with an executable 49-table ownership partition and transferred the leaf `SystemEmailSettings` table from MariaDB-only startup DDL to an additive provider-aware migration. Fresh SQLite now receives the table; legacy rows are preserved and startup no longer creates it.
- Transferred the independent `UserRuleSettings` table from both provider startup paths to its own provider-aware migration; owner-keyed settings survive adoption, downgrade and retry.
- Moved `GmailReviewDecisions` into a provider-aware migration, preserving existing SQLite decisions and closing the previously missing MariaDB table path.

### In progress

- No repository implementation package is currently in progress. SEC-006/SEC-007 await a running Linux Docker daemon for image/runtime proof; production activation remains separately gated.

### Remaining

- Finish production deployment/health verification and revalidate the production-only blockers.
- Continue visual hierarchy/responsive polish only when a concrete browser regression or reviewed design target identifies a remaining defect; the current automated desktop/mobile journeys pass.
- Continue maintainability packages, accessibility automation, mobile regression coverage, and the prioritized product-value roadmap after the foundations are stable.

### Blocked

- Production rollout remains dependent on an online Gitea runner matching `ubuntu-latest` and the deployment host becoming healthy.
- Existing external/provider/retention decisions remain listed in `BLOCKERS.md` and are not silently reclassified here.

### Discovered during implementation

- The prior E2E command relied on both `dotnet` and nested `npm` being discoverable through ambient PATH. This reproduced the audit's tooling failure on the current workstation.
- The 375px Settings regression test still expected desktop tabs. It now verifies the responsive section selector instead.
- The previous Dashboard rendered its time-in-stage empty state using the unrelated “No tags yet” copy. Empty analytical panels are now suppressed instead of presenting mismatched messages.
- The Application Analysis match previously ignored both `JobApplication.DescriptionLanguage`/`TranslatedDescription` and the linked CV's language setting. This could under-score an English CV against a Norwegian advert even when import had already stored a usable English translation.
- The bundled portable Node runtime starts Next 16 successfully, but Turbopack repeatedly panicked while emitting `/page`; the webpack development path serves the same route correctly and is now the documented/scripted default.
- Playwright exposed duplicate React keys in the long Code-template CV despite passing its assertions. Read-only inspection of the disposable SQLite database proved every relational Career Profile child had been inserted twice: a newly visible profile could be read and legacy-backfilled before its child replacement completed. Profile snapshot/children/history saves are now atomic, malformed duplicate item/order keys are normalized, and race-affected stored rows resolve once on reads without destructive cleanup.

### Verification

- Full frontend after the Job Email localization batch: 62 suites, 263/263 tests passed.
- Next optimized production build and integrated TypeScript check passed after the Job Email localization batch.
- Public landing focused verification: 2 suites, 3/3 passed, including live switching to Bokmål and preservation of protected-route sign-in intent; TypeScript passed.
- CV Builder focused verification: 12/12 passed; TypeScript passed after the final format-label pass.
- Admin System focused verification: 3/3 passed, including Bokmål benchmark diagnostics that preserve runtime values; TypeScript passed.
- Job creation and Gmail workflow localization verification: 4 focused suites, 11/11 passed; TypeScript passed. The add-job stepper, Gmail continuity management, review queue, usage progress labels, errors and status copy now switch between English and Bokmål without translating user/job/email content.
- Shared active-surface localization/accessibility verification: Profile 13/13 and settings/auth/landing 18/18 passed; TypeScript passed. Tag entry, Pro notices, disabled registration, profile load recovery, dashboard totals, language selector semantics, job-selection checkboxes and locale-aware correspondence dates were aligned with the global EN/NB system.
- Final localization regression gate: all 62 frontend suites and 267/267 tests passed after correcting the isolated Pro-notice provider fallback; the optimized Next production build and integrated TypeScript check passed; the full .NET 9 backend suite passed 713/713.
- Career Profile atomicity/CV locale verification: focused backend 55/55 and frontend 10/10 passed; the targeted long Code-template Playwright/PDF flow passed 1/1 with no duplicate-key or out-of-range locale warning. Its fresh disposable database contained exactly 9 experiences, 1 education, 8 skills, 1 project, 1 certification and 2 languages, with zero duplicate experience ItemKeys.

- Final shared-state/localization regression: all 64 frontend suites and 272/272 tests passed; optimized Next build and integrated TypeScript passed; complete Playwright passed 10/10, including public PDF and the searchable multi-page Code template. Only the pre-existing Google Identity development logger warning remained.
- Admin/correspondence/profile helper-copy verification: 3 suites and 22/22 tests passed, including a Bokmål SMTP-message regression; TypeScript passed.
- Local toolchain/lint verification: Python 3.12.10; sidecar 26/26 tests passed with five existing SWIG deprecation warnings; ESLint passes with zero warnings; frontend 64 suites and 272/272 tests passed; optimized Next build and integrated TypeScript passed; npm audit reports zero vulnerabilities.
- Backend matcher/intelligence focused verification: 35/35 passed, including detection of a manually created Norwegian advert with no saved translation.
- Full backend: 712/712 tests passed on .NET 9.
- Next optimized production build and TypeScript: passed after the Job Workspace/checklist batch.
- Playwright: 8/10 passed on the first complete run; both failures were ambiguous selectors in the newly responsive Career selector, not product failures. Both corrected focused regressions now pass (2/2); final full rerun remains in the end-of-batch gate.
- Manual desktop browser review: webpack development server rendered the new Career navigation and Overview correctly in dark mode; API-dependent profile status remained unavailable because the backend was not running for that isolated UI review.

- **Overall programme status:** Active but externally blocked. Eight packages are locally verified and twenty-seven are implemented with verification incomplete. The prioritized admin-only version indicator, every immediate repository/browser item, SEC-006/SEC-007 repository boundaries, SEC-009, the PROD-001 read-only inventory, and the PROD-003 safe benchmark harness are complete on the feature branch.
- **Current work package:** JT-017 remaining immutable CI/image/scanner provenance and JT-019 schema-ownership inventory while external runtime gates remain blocked. JT-018 is complete in repository scope.
- **Completed work packages:** None are `DONE`; all repository security/AI packages still have applicable browser, provider and/or production gates.
- **Locally verified work:** SEC-001, SEC-002, SEC-003, SEC-005A, CORE-001, PROD-002, DEP-001 and VER-001 (`VERIFIED LOCALLY`).
- **Implemented, verification incomplete:** SEC-004, SEC-005B, SEC-006, SEC-007, SEC-008, SEC-009, CORE-002, BG-001, OPS-001A/B/C, POL-001/002, AI-001/002/003/004, UX-001/002/003, QA-001, CAREER-001/002, MAIL-001, JOBS-001/002 and PRODUCT-001 (`IMPLEMENTED — NOT VERIFIED`). Their safe repository/browser scope is implemented; production/native-device/provider/retention gates remain where recorded.
- **Production-verified work:** None.
- **Blocked work:** PROD-001/003/004 and REL-001 require network/backup/model/deployment authority and unfinished dependencies. Real provider and live deletion/restore checks remain gated; DEP-001 awaits approved merge/live verification.
- **Deferred work:** None. Conditional multi-replica coordination, model deletion, realtime operation delivery and unrelated production changes remain outside current packages.
- **Immediate order:** all sixteen immediate repository items are complete locally, including the original UI/release queue plus SEC-009 cache/tombstone safety, worker restart clocks, universal AI accounting, email-token/Stripe lifecycle tests, exhaustive Job email selectors, the repaired migration chain, CV/public-edge hardening and measured admin/mail scaling. PROD-001 read-only evidence and the PROD-003 plan-only harness are also complete. The final audit is checking tooling/documentation before declaring only external blockers remain.
- **Status counts:** 8 `VERIFIED LOCALLY`; 27 `IMPLEMENTED — NOT VERIFIED`; 0 `IN PROGRESS`; 0 `NOT STARTED`; 4 `BLOCKED`; 0 `DONE`; 0 `DEFERRED`.
- **Test status:** backend 723/723; frontend 64/64 suites and 272/272 tests; ESLint zero findings; AI sidecar 37/37 without warnings; Ollama benchmark harness 5/5 plus safe dry-run; optimized production build/TypeScript; EF model parity; SQLite/MariaDB migration scripts; blank/idempotent/populated SQLite migration-chain tests; fresh SQLite application startup through the SystemEmailSettings ownership migration; disposable fresh/restarted MariaDB 11.8 application startup; Docker Compose config; safe-failure deployment preflight; and Playwright 9/9. npm audit remains at zero. The new ownership migrations have generated MariaDB SQL but still need a MariaDB runtime rehearsal; the parser image build is pending because Docker Desktop's daemon is offline. Jest's slow/open-handle behavior remains recorded.
- **Deployment status:** Gitea pull-request run 609 passed the complete CI job in 4m20s. Deploy was intentionally skipped because the workflow deploys only a `push` to `main`; live remains unchanged. No merge/deployment was performed directly, no production migrations were run and the AI operation worker remains disabled by default.
- **Production status:** State unchanged. Sanitized read-only SSH inventory was performed; no logs, prompts, private rows/content or secret values were read, and no provider/model call, model pull, service restart, file/config change, backup, restore, migration or deployment occurred. It confirmed all-interface Ollama/frontend listeners and stale database-only backups as rollout blockers.
- **Known regressions:** None found by automated/local browser checks. Jest still needs `--forceExit` and reports its existing open-handle notice. Email-provider/send tests are fake/local only; real delivery is not claimed. Current MAIL browser evidence is 1280×720 only because the browser surface could not resize or perform native Tab traversal. Interrupted attempts are aged after 15 minutes and notified without retry; the five-minute scan is unmeasured on a large ledger. The direct clean EF-only SQLite defect and synchronous AI accounting gap are closed; migration/reconciler dual ownership remains architectural debt.
- **Outstanding security findings:** JT-001 repository ownership remains High deployment risk until migration/inventory/provider checks; production portion of JT-002; JT-006 and SEC-009 production retention/restore plus JT-011/JT-012/JT-022 prerequisites. JT-005 foundations are implemented; AI worker activation awaits controlled rollout. Production still exposes ports contrary to the release-branch contract, and JT-007/JT-008/JT-010 lack provider/production verification.
