This directory contains the working documentation for the WeatherTool modernization effort. The repository-root `README.md` is preserved as the original project overview; these documents describe the reviewed code, current staging environment, and changes being developed.
- Windows is restricted to source editing, review, and Git operations. Rocky is the sole compile, build, development-runtime, and test environment. The Ubuntu VPS is a deployment target only.
- Staging ingests real LVĢMC station and water-temperature observations from the free `data.gov.lv` open-data feeds; synthetic data generation was removed once real ingestion was verified. The private LVGMC FTP feed and DMI HARMONIE forecast feed still exist in code but stay gated behind `ENABLE_LEGACY_PROVIDER_JOBS` (default off) pending real credentials.
- The safe scheduled jobs (open-data station ingestion, GRIB cleanup) run in staging; the legacy FTP/HARMONIE jobs stay off by default so placeholder credentials can't crash-loop the app.
- The operator-facing workspaces now use the Latvian workflow names **Stacijas**, **Kartes**, **Faktiskā**, **Ūdens**, **Brīdinājumi**, **Apskats**, **Arhīvs**, **Harmonie**, and **LVĢMC**. Kartes retains custom analytical map outputs, while Faktiskā is a fixed 13-position, latest-temperature newsroom workflow with a locked 3840×1440 export.
- **Ūdens** auto-populates its six ranges on load with real per-zone water-temperature min/max (65 LVĢMC stations classified into the 6 named zones), with manual override and reset still available. Uses separate authoritative 1920×1080 and 3840×1440 production templates; both exports have been visually validated.
- **Brīdinājumi** renders current LVĢMC warning polygons over a production border overlay with feathered severity fills, plus draggable/resizable per-warning weather-symbol placement. Its lon/lat-to-pixel projection is an affine fit calibrated against the same validated city pixel positions Kartes/Faktiskā already use, replacing an earlier bounding-box calibration that drifted up to ~200px on the 3840 canvas.
- Confirmed local Monda Regular/Bold files provide interface and generated-graphic typography; weather symbols use normalized transparent image assets.
- Release `e446f1ff` is deployed as immutable image `weathertool:e446f1ff094d428bba0921d0058570764779328e`; release `d7439a2b` remains the immediate application rollback. This release is a frontend design pass: a reworked visual palette (layered blue-gray background, kept the original accent blue for buttons/icons), Faktiskā decluttered (collapsible station list and map settings, a fixed cascade bug in the resolution buttons, "Kartes noformējums" restructured and translated to Latvian, including a fresh-eyes-review catch on `WindInputs` that had been missed), a temperature-badge vertical-centering fix, Brīdinājumi promoted into the visible header nav with icons throughout, and the weather-icon-picker CSS (shared by Faktiskā and Brīdinājumi) consolidated into one real definition instead of a cross-file collision masked by `!important`. No database or scheduler changes — application-only.
- The isolated VPS UAT stack is running and healthy: WeatherTool is bound to `127.0.0.1:8002`, Authelia to `127.0.0.1:9091`, and PostgreSQL has no host port. Public access is routed through Cloudflare, Nginx, and Authelia.
- Cloudflare delegation is active, strict origin TLS covers only `laikapstak.li` and `auth.laikapstak.li`, and the public Nginx/Authelia login flow is operational without changing the existing HOP site.
- The VPS `weather` table now holds only real LVĢMC open-data station observations; its original 14-day synthetic dataset was backed up to `/srv/weathertool/backups/pre-real-data-release/` and wiped on 2026-08-23 as part of the `138f57c8` release. The scheduled open-data job runs on the VPS (minutes 15/45); the legacy FTP/HARMONIE jobs stay off pending real credentials.
- Approved 1920×1080 and 3840×1440 PNG production bases are now the rendering source for Faktiskā and Ūdens temperatūra; code draws only the changing values, selected weather symbols, and wind data over those fixed newsroom graphics.
- Browser branding assets and Latvian Open Graph/Twitter metadata are included for favicon, Apple home-screen icon, and link-preview support. Public crawler access still depends on the Nginx/Authelia policy used for the metadata and preview image.
- Browser verification is complete for the deployed `e446f1ff` release: exact release image smoke-tested on Rocky before transfer (bundle hash and headless-browser screenshot matched the known-good local build), checksum verified on both ends, container health/loopback/public HTTPS confirmed. Newsroom testers will be given the domain first, without walkthrough, to see how intuitive the workflow is before any guidance is provided.
- Frontend dependency maintenance is complete: Solid runtime and Vite tooling were updated, obsolete packages were removed, TypeScript checking was added, and a clean Rocky `npm ci`, typecheck, production build, full audit, and production-only audit all pass with zero known vulnerabilities.
