The Cache-Control rule I added in the previous commit used a nested
`location ~* \.(html|css|js|webmanifest)$`. nginx does NOT inherit add_header into a
block that declares its own add_header, so every HTML, CSS and JS response would have
been served WITHOUT the CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy and nosniff headers
from the Phase S hardening — the headers dropped for exactly the files that matter most,
and silently, since the pages would still work.
Now computed by `map $uri $wp_cache_control` at http level and applied with one
server-level add_header alongside the security headers, so nothing is scoped away. An
empty value makes nginx omit the header entirely, so images and fonts stay cacheable.
Applied to both the Docker config (nginx/conf.d/wp-suite.conf) and the bare-metal one
(nginx-wp-suite.conf), which carries the same header set.
Caught while checking whether the stack was safe to redeploy. Not verified with
`nginx -t` — this machine has neither nginx nor docker — so DEPLOYMENT.md now records
the rule and the one-line curl that confirms both headers are present after a deploy.

A 55-agent audit of the last few commits confirmed 32 findings. The high and medium
ones are fixed here; the ranked leftovers are listed at the end.
Boot-order crash (my regression, wave 2)
- wp-format.js loaded AFTER wp-creation-app.js on every page, but the creator boots
synchronously at parse time and its comment renderer calls wpFormatDateTime(). With
any review comment present that threw a ReferenceError and aborted the rest of boot.
The formatter now parses before the app scripts on all five pages. Verified with a
comment seeded: the date renders and boot completes.
The network-first fix didn't actually work
- `fetch(req)` inherits the request's default cache mode, so it consults the browser
HTTP cache — the previous commit's "network-first" still allowed a page to run
against a stale sibling. Code is now fetched with cache:'no-cache' and precached
with cache:'reload'.
- Nothing pinned freshness on the wire either: no Cache-Control anywhere, so browsers
applied heuristic caching (~10% of a file's age) and each file expired at a
different moment. NGINX and the dev server now send no-cache for html/css/js/
webmanifest; images stay cacheable. Verified on the wire.
- Non-ok responses were returned verbatim, so a 502 broke pages the cache could have
served; they now fall back to the cache. Cache keys drop the query string, which
fixes both the offline miss on every in-app link (?project=…&tab=…) and unbounded
cache growth. respondWith can no longer resolve to undefined. Cache bumped to v5.
Embedded creator
- Dropped the &t=Date.now() cache-buster and made the frame's identity the PROJECT.
The view and which package to open are now applied by calling into the loaded
document, so switching tabs no longer reloads it — that reload discarded unsaved form
edits, made the creator unreachable offline, and stored a fresh copy per click.
- ?view=dashboard was re-read on every tab switch, so after one deep link the
"Work Package Creation" tab kept opening the Dashboard for the rest of the session.
Deep-link params are consumed once now.
- ?wp=<id> — which the global search has been emitting since wave 2 — was read by
nothing, so picking a work package in search opened a blank one. The creator now
exposes openWpById() and the shell applies it after a new 'wp-creator-ready' event,
because the frame's load fires before pullProject() resolves.
- Math.max(320,…) could make the frame taller than the space available while page
scrolling was disabled, pushing content off a window that couldn't scroll. Full-bleed
is now only used when at least 460px remains, and the SOP-incomplete gate never runs
inside it. A ResizeObserver re-measures when wp-chrome.js grows the app bar.
Contract drift
- .field-hint and .user-pick are used on the SOP suite page but their only rules lived
in wp-creation-styles.css, which that page doesn't link — the CM hint and the
sign-off pickers had no styling at all. Rules added to the suite's stylesheet.
- The creator's critical floor now also hides modal overlays (a stale stylesheet
rendered their contents inline in the form) and gives the jump bar a sane sticky top.
- login.js dereferenced ids unguarded where the old version guarded, so a cached older
login.html would break sign-in itself. Guarded.
- The "Language & time" menu item was added only if wp-format.js had already parsed;
the check now happens at click time.
Verified: 157 API checks across five suites on a clean database, plus 22 driven UI
checks — boot-with-comment, tab switching with a no-reload probe, short-viewport
fallback, and the search deep link landing on the right package.
Not done, ranked: ~50 dead CSS rules across three stylesheets; dead .team-pick and
.constraint-option contracts; wp-chrome.js's documented '.header' mount branch is
unreachable because the creator loads neither wp-chrome.js nor its CSS; the squeeze
half of the embed layout (.content-area.embed-full) is still CSS-only, which degrades
to the old narrow column rather than breaking; fingerprinted asset URLs would make a
mismatched pair unrepresentable rather than merely unlikely.

Brings the Work Package Suite from a browser-local prototype to a
multi-tenant, SQL-backed deployment hardened for customer IP.
Auth & access control
- Local username/password login (bcrypt + JWT in an HttpOnly cookie),
admin-managed users, per-project membership, and project-scoped API access.
- Admin console: change user roles, view the audit trail, manage settings.
Security hardening
- CSP / HSTS / X-Frame-Options / nosniff headers in nginx; Secure cookie via
X-Forwarded-Proto; CSRF Origin check; attribute-safe output escaping.
- Login lockout, token_version session revocation, stronger password policy,
fail-closed secret loading, encrypted (AES-256) database backups.
Persistence & schema
- SOPs and Work Packages are now DB-backed and shared across users, written
through a durable client sync outbox that queues offline edits.
- Alembic migrations applied automatically on container start.
New capabilities
- Phase 2 dashboard (progress, gating, pagination, archive).
- Phase 3 PWA "Field View" with offline caching and auth fallback.
- WP owner assignment with OPTIONAL email notifications, OFF by default and
toggled from the admin console. SMTP password is read only from the
SMTP_PASSWORD env var (never stored); emails carry a WP number + deep link,
never customer IP.
Also: IBM Carbon restyle, Help section, and DEPLOYMENT.md brought up to date.
