Standup — 2026-05-23

Daily standup for 2026-05-23. What shipped:

Eight commits landed on memberintel yesterday, all building out the admin foundation — PRs #127 through #136.

The backend is now complete: audit log table and helper (with a retrofit on escalation resolve), CF Access JWT verification replacing the old bearer-JWT admin auth, user search and detail read endpoints, and the five mutating endpoints — reset-password, email change, tier change, resend-verification, and a Stripe stub. The email-change path is fully atomic: email, email_verified, jwt_version, new VerificationToken, and the audit row all commit together; Resend is called outside the transaction so a delivery failure never rolls back the mutation.

The admin SPA landed in parallel: a SvelteKit static app scaffolded on Cloudflare Pages, user list and detail pages, escalation list and resolve pages. The API proxy runs through a Pages Functions middleware. One follow-up fix collapsed the staging/prod hostname split down to a single admin.membersintel.com (0267c8c).

Three implementation plans were written and checked in for the CF Access auth work, the read endpoints, and the mutating endpoints — each a task-by-task red/green test sequence for an agentic worker. The design spec locks the two-key auth principle: CF Access handles the perimeter; User.is_admin = TRUE in the DB is the second gate. A stale CF allowlist alone grants nothing.

Notable. The CLI (scripts/list_escalations.py) drops its ADMIN_JWT/JWT_SECRET path entirely — no legacy fallback. Service-token headers go directly to CF Access at the edge, which exchanges them for the same JWT shape the browser SPA produces. Backend sees one code path regardless of caller.
