Tutor (prompt tutor-v3-stepwise-plain): plain text instead of LaTeX/markdown,
with rag/services/mathtext.py converting whatever still slips through; full
step-by-step solutions with a check before the final answer; three tones by
grade; the last 6 messages of the conversation go to the model and follow-ups
are no longer served from another user's cache; book solutions the checker
disputes are kept out of the context; a questionId gives the tutor the
practice question and the student's wrong answer. /api/health reports when
the AI credit runs out. rag_model_benchmark compares chat models on verified
book problems (run on the server; credit ran out mid-run).
Map: only lessons that have questions count toward finishing an island,
lessonIds[0] / nextLessonId is always the next lesson to play, and a finished
island stays finished. The Seyar characters (sigma/delta/pi) are seeded.
Audit fixes, each reproduced before fixing:
- the plan is stored on the order, so paying a monthly order after starting
a yearly checkout no longer grants a year
- opening checkout no longer demotes an active subscription; renewals extend
from the current expiry; expired subscriptions are not reported active
- one discount code per order and only before the gateway; a 100% code
completes the purchase; lost Zarinpal confirmations are re-verified
- the unused /api/payment/webhook "mark paid" endpoint is removed
- XP counts only answers recorded on the server
- 6-digit OTP, each code dies after 5 wrong guesses; POST /api/auth/logout
- a guest who signs up keeps their account and progress (test phones excluded)
- affiliate commission on the first real payment; guests excluded
- parents with several children no longer get a 500
- SQLite runs transactions IMMEDIATE, since it ignores select_for_update
- admin login is rate-limited; display names drop phone numbers and links;
userQuestion is capped at 2000 characters
- server-side heart enforcement exists behind HEARTS_ENFORCED (off until the
frontend handles 403 no_hearts)
Not done on purpose: rotating the server's secret key and moving to Postgres.

Found in a deeper pass over what the frontend's flow actually touches:
- Nothing in the app ever wrote StreakRecord: "days in a row" was 0 forever
for every real user. Answers and lesson/island completions now record the
day (Tehran time); a broken chain shows 0. A streak error never fails the
answer itself.
- /api/leaderboard only changed when someone ran rebuild_leaderboard by
hand. It is now computed live (60s cache); weekly counts island XP too.
- gunicorn ran 3 sync workers with a 30s timeout, so every "ask Pi" stream
pinned a whole worker (~10s, GapGPT buffers the answer) and three at once
queued the entire API. gunicorn.conf.py (read automatically from the
working directory) switches to gthread, 8 threads, 120s timeout.
- Every /api/ response now says Cache-Control: private, no-store, so turning
on caching in the ArvanCloud panel can never serve one student another's data.
- /api/user/summary named no active plan ever ("subscription app not
implemented yet" had long stopped being true).

ZARINPAL_REDIRECT_URL was empty on the server, so after a real (non-sandbox)
payment the callback answered with {"orderId","status"} on the API domain and
the student was stranded there. It now defaults to FRONTEND_URL
(https://math.tadrisino2.ir/) with ?orderId=&status=; reopening a finished
order's pay link goes back to the app the same way. "-" keeps the old JSON.

The frontend plays node quizzes, but a node only completed once every one of its
8-13 lessons was completed separately, so students were stuck after the first
island of each unit. POST /api/nodes/{id}/quiz/complete now completes the node
(any score; score only sets stars/xp) and returns nextNodeId.
Also closes the other backend gaps found while auditing the frontend:
- /api/ai/ask without lessonId now picks the book from the user's grade instead
of skipping retrieval, so the "ask Pi" tab is grounded in the textbook.
- guest sessions return a refreshToken; they used to go silently 401 after 1h.
- lesson_complete throttle 10/hour -> 120/hour (a lesson here is 1-2 questions).
- progressPercent is per grade, not over all 2,617 lessons of every grade.
- a one-year plan (299,000 toman) is created by migration when no plan exists.

A shared guest account was hand-seeded into the production DB on 2026-09-22 so
the frontend developer could see the notification and leaderboard screens before
any real traffic exists: deviceId "frontend-test-device", user 6, with 24
Notification rows and 20 LeaderboardEntry rows across both periods, ordered
differently per period so the ?period= parameter is visibly doing something.
None of that was recorded in the repo. db.sqlite3 is gitignored, so the account
existed only in the head of whoever set it up — exactly the kind of thing that
disappears at a handoff. It is now in docs/frontend/README.md, where the
frontend developer looks, and in docs/operations.md, where whoever runs the
server looks.
Verified against production before writing it down: the account still resolves
to user 6 with isNewUser false, notifications return rows, and both leaderboard
periods return six entries. The notifications payload is keyed "items", not
"results", which is noted because it is easy to read as an empty response.
The operations entry carries the warning that matters: this is hand-written data
in a production database, purge_demo_data will not catch it (it only matches
[SEED]/[DEMO] prefixes on Grade/Plan/Character/User), and it has to go before
real users arrive or they will see invented notifications.
The Swagger description now says a deviceId can be any string and that
pre-seeded ones exist on request, but deliberately does not print the specific
value: /api/docs/ is reachable from the public internet, and a public API
reference should not advertise a shared account that anyone can sign into.

The README had grown into a 295-line mixture of onboarding, an ops runbook, a
content-authoring workflow, bulk question generation and a Docker log stack. A
reader arriving at the repo could not tell in ten seconds what this service is,
whether it is live, or where to start, and five of its claims no longer matched
the code:
- it said to export .env values by hand; settings.py has loaded .env through
python-dotenv for a while now
- it listed six variables as "everything the app actually reads"; .env.example
has carried many more than that for some time
- it called DJANGO_SECRET_KEY, DJANGO_ALLOWED_HOSTS and CACHE_URL required in
production; all three now have working defaults, and the app boots without
them on purpose so a partial .env cannot take the service down
- it claimed there is no insecure SECRET_KEY fallback; there is one, under DEBUG
- it required Python 3.12 while the project runs on 3.11 (Docker uses 3.12)
The README now states what the service is, where it runs, how healthy it is and
how to get it running in six commands, then links onward. Procedures moved to
docs/operations.md, docs/content-authoring.md, docs/architecture.md and
docs/docker.md, which is where someone follows a procedure rather than skims it.
Nothing was dropped; the deploy one-liner now includes the separate sudo restart
that deploy.sh cannot perform itself, and backup/restore is written down for the
first time.
Every number in the README was measured rather than quoted: content counts from
the live /api/health and content/seed/curriculum.json, 55 endpoints from the
generated OpenAPI schema, 481 tests from a full run.
