# Project State

## Project Reference

See: .planning/PROJECT.md (updated 2026-07-14)

**Core value:** A manager/security operator can see every phishing/spam report ticket automatically triaged, deduplicated into campaigns, and classified — with any destructive remediation gated behind explicit human approval.
**Current focus:** Phase 24 — aws-route-53-dns-sync-track-changes-crud-operations-full-aud

## Current Position

Phase: 24 (aws-route-53-dns-sync-track-changes-crud-operations-full-aud) — EXECUTING
Plan: 1 of 7
Status: Executing Phase 24
Last activity: 2026-08-05 -- Phase 24 execution started

## Accumulated Context

### Decisions

Decisions are logged in PROJECT.md Key Decisions table.
Recent decisions affecting current work:

- v3.0 roadmap: 7 phases (15-21), each a hard dependency on at least one
  predecessor except Phase 17 (Mimecast blast-radius), which only depends on
  the Phase 15 schema and could be built in parallel with Phase 16 (EML
  parser) if split across two workstreams — sequenced after 16 here for a
  single execution thread

- The durable schema (campaigns/reports/messages/indicators/classifications/
  remediation_actions/audit_events) lands in Phase 15, before any service
  that writes to it — new migration, next number after 096 (097+)

- ACCESS-01 is mapped to Phase 18 (the first phase introducing
  `/api/phishing/*` routes) rather than a standalone terminal phase; every
  later phishing endpoint (19, 20, 21) is expected to continue enforcing the
  same `requireAuth`/`requirePermission` convention as a success-criteria
  carry-forward, not a re-mapped requirement

- Classification (Phase 19) is sequenced after both Phase 17 (blast-radius)
  and Phase 18 (campaigns) since it needs both as inputs

- Remediation/approval/audit (Phase 20) is sequenced after Phase 18
  (campaigns) and Phase 19 (classifications) — can't approve/gate an action
  that doesn't reference either

- Autotask triage note (Phase 21) is last — its content summarizes
  classification + blast radius + recommended/approved remediation state,
  so it has nothing to summarize until Phases 19-20 exist

### Roadmap Evolution

- Phase 22 added: Approval UI (LiveLink) — ticket-ID-addressable Pulse page
  (Autotask LiveLink target) showing campaign timeline, evidence, and
  classification, with approve/remediate/mark-false-positive wired to the
  Phase 20 APIs. Depends on Phase 19 + Phase 20 only; not functionally
  dependent on Phase 21 despite being numbered after it.

- Phase 23 added: Classification Disposition + Per-Client Automation Gate —
  dedicated "User Awareness" verdict for confirmed phishing-simulation-vendor
  reports (currently forced into generic UNWANTED), plus an admin UI gate
  for per-company automatic vs. manual phishing pipeline execution. Surfaced
  live during Phase 22 review of a real Breach Secure Now report (ticket
  699415) — the classifier already detects the simulation vendor and skips
  the THREAT tier, but has no distinct outcome to reflect it.

- Phase 24 edited: edited fields: title, goal, success_criteria (tidied up phase.add output; AWS Route 53 DNS sync via BWS credentials, full CRUD + audit logging, integrated into existing sync infra)

### Pending Todos

None yet.

### Blockers/Concerns

- 2026-07-15 — Phase 18 gap closure (18-04): decision-coverage gate flagged D-02/D-03/D-04 (grouping-parameter decisions from original discuss-phase) as not literally cited in any plan's `must_haves`/`truths`. Overridden and proceeded — these decisions were already implemented in 18-01 (24h window, subject normalization, no-merge behavior) and independently confirmed correct by both 18-REVIEW.md and 18-VERIFICATION.md. Citation gap only, not an implementation gap.

- 2026-07-16 — Phase 23 planning: decision-coverage gate flagged D-01/D-02/D-03/D-04/D-05/D-06/D-08 (7 of 8 decisions) as not literally cited by `D-NN:` prefix in any plan's `must_haves`/`truths`. Overridden and proceeded — spot-checked plan 23-01's `must_haves.truths` directly and confirmed it substantively describes D-01 through D-04's content (USER_AWARENESS verdict, acknowledge_user action, noteType 18 customer-visible note, manual-path real posting) without the literal citation prefix; the plan-checker's second-pass review (after the blocker-revision cycle) independently confirmed via live source reads that all 8 decisions map to implementing tasks with no contradictions. Same citation-format gap as the Phase 18 precedent above, not an implementation gap.

- 2026-07-16 — Phase 23 gap-closure planning (`--gaps`, plan 23-06): re-running the decision-coverage gate against the phase directory re-surfaced the same 7 pre-existing citation-format misses from the initial planning override above (D-01/D-02/D-03/D-04/D-05/D-06/D-08 — all already implemented and VERIFIED per 23-VERIFICATION.md's Observable Truths #1-15). Not a new gap and not introduced by 23-06 (which only touches AUTOGATE-03/webhook idempotency and cites no CONTEXT.md decisions of its own). Overridden and proceeded for the same reason as the original override — retroactively reformatting 5 already-executed, already-shipped plans to add literal `D-NN:` citations under designated headings is out of scope for a narrow gap-closure run targeting Truth #18 only.

| 260717-a19 | Fix phishing simulation-vendor allowlist gaps (3 missing KnowBe4 domains), auto-parse timing race (retry on ticket.update), and parseAndStoreMessage idempotency; reclassified 6 stale Seubert campaigns (all flipped UNWANTED → USER_AWARENESS) | 2026-07-17 | cf04f07 | [260717-a19-fix-phishing-simulation-vendor-allowlist](./quick/260717-a19-fix-phishing-simulation-vendor-allowlist/) |
| 260717-v6c | Add "Mark as accidental report" action to the phishing Action Area — closes out a campaign and posts a fixed customer-facing note to the reporter (distinct from the silent "Mark as false positive" action) | 2026-07-18 | 565a0c1 | [260717-v6c-add-a-mark-as-accidental-report-action-t](./quick/260717-v6c-add-a-mark-as-accidental-report-action-t/) |
| 260718-7v8 | Fix Mimecast blast-radius false positives — date-scope `getHeldMessages()` and add a sender-domain relevance guard so unrelated held mail in a recipient's queue no longer inflates held/matched counts or overwrites a genuinely delivered recipient's status | 2026-07-18 | b7d6be4 | [260718-7v8-fix-mimecast-blast-radius-held-message-f](./quick/260718-7v8-fix-mimecast-blast-radius-held-message-f/) |
| 260718-9qg | Add self-contained `QBO_INTEGRATION_HANDOFF.md` documenting Pulse's QuickBooks Online OAuth2 flow, token storage/refresh, sandbox/production API base URLs, and gotchas (deletion-diffing, CSRF state gap, NEXTAUTH_URL legacy var) for a new app's team | 2026-07-18 | ea8a36b | [260718-9qg-create-a-quickbooks-online-integration-h](./quick/260718-9qg-create-a-quickbooks-online-integration-h/) |
| 260721-fy8 | Fix missing `mimecast-sync`/`qbo` scheduler dispatch branches (both silently fell through to a generic Autotask full sync) and reschedule `mimecast-sync` off the 2am 3-way cron collision with `qbo-sync-2am` and `veeam-full` | 2026-07-21 | db7db98 | [260721-fy8-fix-mimecast-and-qbo-sync-scheduler-disp](./quick/260721-fy8-fix-mimecast-and-qbo-sync-scheduler-disp/) |
| 260721-mmf | Fix Mimecast blast-radius query scope — dropped the single-recipient `to`/`recipient` filter from `searchDeliveredMessages`/`getHeldMessages` so the fan-out returns every delivered/held message across the whole tenant for a campaign's sender+subject+date-window, not just whether it reached the original reporter's mailbox | 2026-07-21 | 534eda3 | [260721-mmf-fix-mimecast-blast-radius-scope](./quick/260721-mmf-fix-mimecast-blast-radius-scope/) |
| 260721-n49 | Fix `gatherCampaignEvidence()` (used by auto-classification on ticket creation) to resolve the reporting company's own `mimecast_tenants` row before calling `getBlastRadius()`, mirroring the campaign-detail route's existing per-tenant resolution — previously it always used the global env-configured (Wulf) tenant, silently returning wrong-tenant (often empty) blast-radius data for any company with its own registered Mimecast tenant | 2026-07-21 | 9f12cd6 | [260721-n49-fix-classifier-mimecast-tenant-scope](./quick/260721-n49-fix-classifier-mimecast-tenant-scope/) |

| verification_gap | Phase 22 22-VERIFICATION.md (`human_needed`, first-ever verification pass, run at this milestone close) | Code-level: 6/6 requirements confirmed correct by direct source read (REVIEW-01 through REVIEW-06, including REVIEW-03's evidence-sanitization requirement — no `dangerouslySetInnerHTML`, no anchor tags on indicator URLs, explicit Mimecast `unavailable` branch). 5 manual browser click-through checks remain outstanding (full page state-machine, approve/remediate/mark-false-positive live flow, non-privileged-role gating, live Mimecast-unavailable render, URL-inertness/clipboard) — deferred rather than run via Playwright per user choice at 2026-07-17 milestone close. See 22-VERIFICATION.md frontmatter `human_verification` list before relying on this UI in a new deployment. |
