It assumes zero access +to the Pulse codebase — every detail that matters is spelled out inline. +Where useful, a parenthetical note says "(in Pulse this lives in …)" purely as +provenance; treat those as historical footnotes, not as things you need to go +look up. + +Pulse's implementation was originally built March 2026, extended with +Payment/Deposit write support in May 2026, and had a soft-delete + AR +reconciliation fix land in July 2026 after a real production discrepancy (see +Gotchas below). This document reflects the accumulated, working state as of +July 2026. + +## 1. Overview + +QuickBooks Online is Intuit's hosted accounting SaaS. Pulse connects to a +single QBO company ("realm") belonging to the business the dashboard serves, +and uses the connection for two purposes: + +1. **Read / sync (one-way, QBO → Pulse):** invoices, customer payments, bank + deposits, purchases/expenses, journal entries, and pre-built financial + reports (Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Aged Receivable + reports) are pulled on a schedule and mirrored into Pulse's own database. + This lets Pulse show finance dashboards, accounts-receivable aging, and + engagement/finance widgets without hitting QBO's API on every page load. +2. **Write (one-way, Pulse → QBO):** Pulse can also *create* records in QBO — + specifically `Payment` (a "Receive Payment" applied against one or more open + invoices) and `Deposit` (grouping several payments into a single bank + deposit line so QBO's bank-feed reconciliation matches the actual bank + deposit slip). This was added to support a semi-automated bank remittance + reconciliation workflow: a CLI script parses a bank's remittance file, + maps each check to an invoice, and posts Payments + a single Deposit to + QBO via the API instead of a human re-keying each line into the QBO UI. + +The integration is intentionally single-tenant: it connects to exactly one +QBO company (one `realmId`) per deployment, configured via environment +variables. There is no concept of "connect a QBO account per customer" — this +was built for one business's own books, not as a multi-tenant SaaS feature. + +## 2. Prerequisites + +Before writing any code, set up an app in Intuit's developer ecosystem: + +1. Create an account at the Intuit Developer portal (https://developer.intuit.com) + and create a new app under "My Apps". +2. Choose the **QuickBooks Online and Payments** (or just **QuickBooks + Online Accounting API**) scope for the app — this is what exposes the + `com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting` OAuth scope. +3. Every Intuit app ships with **two separate credential sets**: one for the + **Sandbox** environment (a fake QBO company you can safely test writes + against) and one for **Production** (real customer/company data). Treat + these as two entirely different client id/secret pairs — do not assume + sandbox credentials work against the production API base URL or vice + versa. +4. Register a **redirect URI** (Intuit calls this the "Redirect URI" under the + app's Keys & OAuth section) that exactly matches the callback URL your app + will use — e.g. `https://your-app.example.com/api/qbo/auth`. Intuit + validates this on every authorization request; a mismatch (including + trailing slash or http vs https) fails the authorization step outright. +5. Intuit requires a **published EULA and Privacy Policy URL** on the app + listing before you can move an app from Sandbox-only to Production/Go Live + — Pulse added simple static `/legal/eula` and `/legal/privacy` pages + specifically to satisfy Intuit's app review/assessment step. Budget time + for this if you haven't already published one. +6. Decide up front which QBO scope(s) you need. Pulse only ever requests + `com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting` (the general accounting scope that + covers invoices, payments, deposits, purchases, journal entries, and + reports). If you also need QBO Payments (charging cards) that's a + different, additional scope not covered here. + +## 3. Environment variables + +Pulse's QBO code reads the following variables directly via `process.env` — +these are the *real* names in use, discovered by grepping the source (not +assumed from a `.env.example`, since none of these currently appear in +Pulse's committed `.env` — meaning this integration is present in code but +not yet live-configured in this particular deployment). + +| Variable | Purpose | Example / placeholder | +|---|---|---| +| `QBO_CLIENT_ID` | Intuit app's OAuth2 client id (Sandbox or Production, depending on `QBO_SANDBOX`) | `ABxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx` | +| `QBO_CLIENT_SECRET` | Intuit app's OAuth2 client secret (matching the same environment as the client id) | `xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx` | +| `QBO_REALM_ID` | The QBO company id ("realm") this deployment talks to. Received once from Intuit on the OAuth callback, then hardcoded into config for a single-tenant deployment | `123146xxxxxxxxx` | +| `QBO_SANDBOX` | String toggle. When exactly `"true"`, the client points at the Sandbox API base URL; any other value (including unset) means Production | `true` or `false` | + +Two things worth calling out explicitly: + +- Pulse's health-check / integration-status layer only checks for + `QBO_CLIENT_ID` and `QBO_CLIENT_SECRET` being present to decide whether to + show QBO as "configured" in its admin integrations UI — it does **not** + separately validate `QBO_REALM_ID`. A new app should validate all three + (`CLIENT_ID`, `CLIENT_SECRET`, `REALM_ID`) before attempting any API call, + because the actual `QboClient` constructor throws if any of the three is + missing. +- The OAuth redirect-URI construction (see next section) reads a **fourth**, + unrelated env var — `NEXTAUTH_URL` — for the base URL used to build both + the callback redirect URI sent to Intuit and the post-auth redirect back + into the admin UI. This is a legacy holdover from an earlier auth library + Pulse used before switching to its current auth stack; it is **not** the + same variable as the app's primary "base URL" env var used everywhere else + in the codebase. In Pulse's actual `.env` this variable is not set at all, + which means in production the redirect URI silently becomes + `undefined/api/qbo/auth` unless something else sets `NEXTAUTH_URL`. **Do + not repeat this mistake** — in your new app, use a single canonical + "public base URL" env var for constructing OAuth redirect URIs, and make + sure it's actually present wherever the OAuth code runs. + +No `client id`/`secret` values from Pulse's real `.env` are reproduced here — +`.env` did not contain `QBO_*`/`QUICKBOOKS_*`/`INTUIT_*` keys at all at the +time this document was written, so there was nothing to redact; the examples +above are placeholders only. + +## 4. OAuth2 connection flow + +QBO uses the standard OAuth2 **authorization-code** grant. Two Intuit +endpoints matter: + +- **Authorize URL:** `https://appcenter.intuit.com/connect/oauth2` +- **Token URL (exchange + refresh):** `https://oauth.platform.intuit.com/oauth2/v1/tokens/bearer` + +Step by step, this is exactly what Pulse's implementation does: + +1. **User clicks "Connect to QBO"** in the admin UI, which hits a single + backend endpoint (in Pulse: `GET /api/qbo/auth`, with no query params). +2. **Server builds the authorize redirect.** It generates a `state` value + (Pulse currently uses `Math.random().toString(36).slice(2)` — cryptographically + weak; a new app should use a proper random token, e.g. `crypto.randomUUID()` + or a signed value, and *should* persist/verify it server-side before + trusting the callback — Pulse's implementation generates `state` but does + **not** persist or verify it on callback, which is a real CSRF gap worth + closing in a new implementation). It then redirects the browser to: + ``` + https://appcenter.intuit.com/connect/oauth2 + ?client_id= + &scope=com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting + &redirect_uri= + &response_type=code + &state= + ``` +3. **User authenticates with Intuit and approves the connection**, choosing + which QBO company ("realm") to connect if they have access to more than + one. +4. **Intuit redirects back** to the exact `redirect_uri` registered on the + Intuit app, appending query params: `code` (the authorization code), + `realmId` (the QBO company id the user just authorized — this is how you + discover the realm; it is not something you choose ahead of time unless + you already know the company), and `state` (echoed back — verify it here). + If the user declines or something goes wrong, Intuit instead appends an + `error` param and no `code`/`realmId`. +5. **Server exchanges the code for tokens.** POST to the token URL: + - Header: `Authorization: Basic ` + - Header: `Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded` + - Header: `Accept: application/json` + - Body (form-encoded): `grant_type=authorization_code&code=&redirect_uri=` + + The redirect_uri sent here **must match** the one used in the initial + authorize redirect exactly, or Intuit rejects the exchange. +6. **Intuit responds with a token payload:** + ```json + { + "access_token": "...", + "refresh_token": "...", + "expires_in": 3600, + "x_refresh_token_expires_in": 8726400, + "token_type": "bearer" + } + ``` + `expires_in` is in seconds and is **short** — access tokens are valid for + 1 hour. `x_refresh_token_expires_in` is also in seconds and is **long** + — the refresh token is valid for 100 days (8,726,400 seconds) from + issuance, but note: **every time you use a refresh token to get a new + access token, Intuit issues a brand-new refresh token as well**, and the + 100-day clock resets. You must persist the new refresh token every single + time or the old one on file will eventually go stale and you'll be forced + back through the full user-consent flow (step 1). +7. **Persist the tokens** (see section 5) keyed by `realmId`, computing + absolute expiry timestamps from `expires_in` / `x_refresh_token_expires_in` + at the moment of exchange (`now + expires_in seconds`, etc.) rather than + storing the raw relative seconds. +8. **Redirect the user back into your own app's UI** (not back to Intuit) — + e.g. an admin settings page — with a success indicator. +9. **On every subsequent API call**, before hitting QBO, check whether the + stored access token's expiry has passed. If it has, and the refresh token + is still valid, silently call the **refresh** grant (same token URL, same + Basic-auth header) with `grant_type=refresh_token&refresh_token=`, persist the new access + refresh token pair, and proceed. + If the *refresh* token itself has also expired, there is no way to + recover programmatically — you must re-run the full authorize flow (step + 1) with a human present. + +Pulse's implementation checks and refreshes **proactively** (before each API +call, based on stored expiry timestamps) rather than reactively (catching a +401 from the API and retrying) — this is simpler and avoids ever sending a +guaranteed-to-fail request, at the cost of trusting your stored clock/expiry +bookkeeping to be accurate. + +## 5. Token storage & refresh + +Pulse stores exactly one row per connected realm in a dedicated tokens table. +Generalized (not Postgres-specific — use whatever your new app's data layer +supports, even a simple encrypted-at-rest key/value store), the record shape +that must be persisted is: + +| Field | Type | Purpose | +|---|---|---| +| `realm_id` | string, unique | The QBO company id this token pair belongs to. Unique constraint because Pulse only ever supports one active connection per realm | +| `access_token` | string (secret) | Short-lived bearer token sent on every API call | +| `refresh_token` | string (secret) | Long-lived token used to mint new access tokens | +| `access_token_expires_at` | timestamp | `now + expires_in seconds` at time of exchange/refresh | +| `refresh_token_expires_at` | timestamp | `now + x_refresh_token_expires_in seconds` at time of exchange/refresh | +| `created_at` / `updated_at` | timestamp | Standard audit columns | + +Refresh strategy (generalized pseudocode): + +``` +function getValidAccessToken(realmId): + token = loadToken(realmId) + if token is null: + raise "not connected — run OAuth flow" + if now() < token.access_token_expires_at: + return token.access_token + if now() >= token.refresh_token_expires_at: + raise "refresh token expired — re-authorization required" + return refreshAccessToken(token.refresh_token) # calls token URL, persists new pair, returns new access_token +``` + +Treat both tokens as secrets: encrypt at rest if your storage layer supports +it, never log them, and never return them in any API response (Pulse's +"connection status" endpoint returns only a derived `valid | expired | +missing` enum — never the token values themselves — and the codebase's own +security posture doc calls out that this table's contents, plus the whole +`.env` file, must never be echoed or logged verbatim). + +**Disconnect is soft, not a full teardown.** Pulse's disconnect action only +deletes the local token row; it does **not** call Intuit's token-revocation +endpoint. This means Intuit's side may still consider the connection +"authorized" until the refresh token naturally expires. A more correct +implementation should also POST to Intuit's revoke endpoint +(`https://developer.api.intuit.com/v2/oauth2/tokens/revoke`, same +Basic-auth pattern, body `token=`) as part of +disconnect, so the authorization is actually torn down on Intuit's side too. + +## 6. API usage + +Base URLs (these differ **only** by the `sandbox-` prefix): + +- **Sandbox:** `https://sandbox-quickbooks.api.intuit.com` +- **Production:** `https://quickbooks.api.intuit.com` + +Path shape for every accounting-entity call: + +``` +{baseUrl}/v3/company/{realmId}/{resource-or-query} +``` + +Pulse pins **`minorversion=65`** as a query parameter on every request. QBO's +"minor version" controls which incremental API revision you get (new fields, +behavior changes); pin an explicit value rather than omitting it, so QBO +adding a new minor version later doesn't silently change your response +shape. Check Intuit's current minor-version changelog before picking a value +for a new integration — don't just copy `65` — but the pattern of pinning one +explicit version is the right one to keep. + +Every authenticated request needs: +``` +Authorization: Bearer +Accept: application/json +Content-Type: application/json +``` + +**Reading data** — QBO exposes a SQL-like query language over each entity. +Example: list invoices, paginated (QBO caps each response at a max page +size; keep paging with `STARTPOSITION`/`MAXRESULTS` until you get a short +page back): + +``` +GET {baseUrl}/v3/company/{realmId}/query + ?query=SELECT * FROM Invoice STARTPOSITION 1 MAXRESULTS 1000 + &minorversion=65 +``` + +For incremental sync, add a `WHERE` clause filtering on QBO's own +last-modified metadata, e.g.: +``` +SELECT * FROM Invoice WHERE MetaData.LastUpdatedTime > '2026-07-01T00:00:00.000Z' + STARTPOSITION 1 MAXRESULTS 1000 +``` + +**Writing data** — POST the entity's JSON body to its dedicated endpoint, +e.g. creating a Payment: +``` +POST {baseUrl}/v3/company/{realmId}/payment?minorversion=65 +Content-Type: application/json + +{ + "CustomerRef": { "value": "" }, + "TotalAmt": 539.40, + "TxnDate": "2026-05-18", + "DepositToAccountRef": { "value": "" }, + "PaymentRefNum": "0000997294", + "Line": [ + { "Amount": 539.40, "LinkedTxn": [ { "TxnId": "", "TxnType": "Invoice" } ] } + ] +} +``` +QBO echoes back the full created object (including its new `Id` and +`SyncToken`) on success — always check for that `Id` in the response before +considering the write successful; a 200-with-unexpected-body is possible and +should be treated as a failure. + +**Reports** — pre-aggregated reports (Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Cash +Flow, Aged Receivable Detail/Summary) are separate GET endpoints under +`/v3/company/{realmId}/reports/{ReportName}` with their own query params +(`start_date`, `end_date`, `accounting_method`, `report_date`, +`aging_method`, plus `showrows=all&showcols=all` to get fully expanded +rows/columns rather than a collapsed summary). Reports come back as a deeply +nested `Header` / `Columns` / `Rows` tree that must be walked recursively — +there is no flat tabular shape. Fetch the company's accounting preference +(`GET /v3/company/{realmId}/preferences?minorversion=65`, look at +`Preferences.ReportPrefs.ReportBasis`, e.g. `"Accrual"` or `"Cash"`) once and +pass it explicitly as `accounting_method` on P&L/Balance Sheet requests — +don't assume Accrual. + +**Rate limits / transient errors** — Intuit enforces per-app-per-realm rate +limits (roughly 500 requests/minute per realm at time of writing — verify +current limits in Intuit's docs, they change). Every QBO response includes +an `intuit_tid` header (sometimes lowercased as `intuit-tid` depending on +proxy/CDN normalization — check both) — capture it in any error you log or +surface, since Intuit support requests require this transaction id to +investigate a specific failed call. + +## 7. Gotchas & lessons learned + +These are real issues Pulse hit, in rough order of how much time they cost: + +1. **QBO never reports deletions — you must diff to find them.** The + Invoice (and other entity) query endpoints only return records that + *currently exist* in QBO. When an invoice is voided or deleted in QBO, it + simply stops appearing in query results going forward — there is no + "deleted" flag, no tombstone record, nothing to subscribe to. If your + sync only *upserts* what it gets back, deleted/voided invoices silently + linger forever in your own database and keep inflating any aggregate + (e.g. "Total Accounts Receivable") that sums over them. Pulse hit this in + production (an invoice for one customer had been voided in QBO but kept + counting toward Pulse's headline A/R for weeks). **Fix:** on every *full* + sync, collect the full set of entity IDs QBO actually returned, then mark + (soft-delete) any locally-stored row for that realm whose id was *not* in + that set. Do **not** apply this same logic on an *incremental* sync + (one that only asks for rows changed since a timestamp) — an incremental + response is deliberately a small subset of all records, so diffing + against "everything QBO returned this call" would wrongly tombstone your + entire historical ledger. Only do the tombstone diff on syncs that fetch + the complete current entity set. + +2. **Reconcile against QBO's own reports periodically, not just raw entity + sync.** Even with the tombstone fix above, subtle drift can still appear + between "sum of invoice balances I have stored" and "what QBO's own Aged + Receivable report says." Building a small reconciliation + check — pull QBO's live Aged-Receivable-Detail report, pull your own + stored open-invoice balances, and diff by invoice/document number in + three buckets (present in QBO but missing locally = sync miss; present + locally but missing from QBO = likely stale/tombstone candidate; present + in both but balance differs = a data-mapping or timing bug) — is cheap + insurance and caught issues that a pure "did the sync job succeed" + check would not have surfaced. + +3. **Report endpoints reject the wrong parameter combinations.** Early + attempts to fetch P&L/Balance Sheet passed a `summarize_column_by` + parameter that QBO's API rejected outright; the fix was to drop it and + instead explicitly pass `accounting_method` (sourced from the company's + real preference, see section 6) plus `showrows=all&showcols=all`. If a + report call returns an error, check the exact param set against Intuit's + current report-endpoint docs rather than assuming your first guess is + right — report endpoints are pickier about params than the generic + `query` endpoint. + +4. **Empty report periods return a distinct "no data" marker, not an empty + array.** When you request a report for a period where the company had no + activity, QBO returns a response with `Header.NoReportData` set to the + *string* `"true"` rather than a normal empty report body. If you don't + check for this explicitly, you'll either crash trying to parse a + report with no rows, or you'll store a garbage "empty" report row and + have to distinguish "the business had zero P&L that month" from "we + never successfully fetched this month" later. Check for + `Header.NoReportData === 'true'` and skip persisting anything for that + period. + +5. **Sandbox and Production are separate universes with separate + credentials.** It is easy to assume "sandbox" is just a URL flag with the + same client id/secret — it isn't. Each Intuit app has independent + Sandbox and Production OAuth client id/secret pairs, independent + authorized companies, and independent data. A `QBO_SANDBOX=true` toggle + only changes which API *base URL* you hit — you still need to swap the + client id/secret pair to match, or every request will fail + authentication. Keep the credential pair and the sandbox/production flag + changed together, never independently. + +6. **Bank check numbers don't round-trip cleanly.** When reconciling bank + remittance files against invoices/payments, physical paper checks often + have leading zeros in their check number (e.g. `0000996226`) that the + bank's own electronic remittance file strips down to a bare number + (`996226`). If you're matching check numbers between an external file and + QBO/your own records, normalize both sides (e.g. strip leading zeros + before comparing) or you'll get false "no match found" failures on + otherwise-correct data. + +7. **Idempotency for write operations needs its own mechanism — QBO does + not give you one for free.** POSTing the same Payment or Deposit twice + creates two separate records in QBO; there's no natural dedupe key QBO + enforces on your behalf for a client-supplied write like an idempotency + key header would provide. Any script or job that writes to QBO + (Payments, Deposits, or otherwise) needs its own tracking of "have I + already successfully posted this specific record" (Pulse's reconciliation + script does this with a sibling JSON manifest that records the QBO-assigned + id after each successful POST, and skips any item already recorded on + re-run) so that retrying a partially-failed batch job doesn't duplicate + the successful half. + +8. **Lazy-construct the API client if any code path shouldn't require + credentials.** A tool that has a "dry run" or "preview" mode (e.g. + validate + print what *would* be sent, without actually calling QBO) + should not eagerly construct the QBO client at the top of its execution + path, because a client constructor that validates `CLIENT_ID` / + `CLIENT_SECRET` / `REALM_ID` up front will throw immediately in + environments where those aren't configured — even though the dry run + never needed a real connection. Defer client construction to the exact + point where you're about to make a real, live API call. + +9. **The disconnect action is local-only unless you explicitly call revoke.** + See section 5 — a "disconnect" button that only deletes your locally + stored tokens does not actually revoke the authorization on Intuit's + side. Decide deliberately whether "disconnect" in your new app means + "forget locally" or "forget locally AND revoke with Intuit," and + implement the revoke call if you mean the latter. + +10. **CSRF `state` handling needs to be real, not decorative.** Generating a + `state` value and sending it to Intuit is only half of CSRF protection — + you must also store what you sent (session, signed cookie, or a + short-lived server-side record) and verify the value that comes back on + the callback matches, before trusting `code`/`realmId`. Skipping the + verification half (which Pulse currently does) leaves the callback + endpoint accepting any `code`/`realmId` pair presented to it with no way + to confirm it originated from an authorization flow you actually + initiated. + +11. **The OAuth callback and any scheduler-triggered sync endpoints must be + reachable without a logged-in session, but everything else should stay + behind auth.** Intuit's redirect back to your app after user consent is + an unauthenticated browser request — if your app's normal auth + middleware requires a session cookie on every route, the OAuth callback + route (and, if you expose a webhook/scheduler-triggered "run a sync now" + endpoint, that route too) need to be carved out as public routes, while + read-oriented admin/diagnostic endpoints stay behind normal + authorization (Pulse gates its AR-diagnostic endpoint behind an + admin-only check, for example, while the OAuth callback and the sync + trigger are unauthenticated by design). + +## 8.

Env vars — grep the QBO files for `process.env.` to find the REAL variable names, then record each: client id, client secret, environment (sandbox vs production toggle), redirect/callback URI, realm/company id, and any discovery or token endpoint overrides. Command hint: `grep -rn "process\.env\." lib/services/qbo-client.ts lib/services/qbo-sync-service.ts app/api/qbo/`. + +2. OAuth2 authorization-code flow — from `app/api/qbo/auth/route.ts` and `lib/services/qbo-client.ts`, capture: the authorize URL (Intuit `appcenter.intuit.com/connect/oauth2`), the requested scopes (e.g. `com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting`), the `state` handling / CSRF protection, the redirect URI, the token-exchange URL (`oauth.platform.intuit.com/oauth2/v1/tokens/bearer`), the token-refresh flow, and how the `realmId` (company id) is received on the callback. + +3. Token storage — from `migrations/051_create_qbo_tables.sql` (and `088`), document the exact table(s) and columns used to persist access token, refresh token, realm/company id, and expiry timestamps; and from the client code, how expiry is detected and refresh is triggered (proactive vs on-401). + +4. API base URLs & versioning — record the sandbox base (`sandbox-quickbooks.api.intuit.com`) vs production base (`quickbooks.api.intuit.com`), the `minorversion` query param if used, and the request path shape (`/v3/company/{realmId}/...`). + +5. What QBO is used for in Pulse — read `lib/services/qbo-sync-service.ts` and the api routes to summarize the entities synced (invoices, AR, payments/deposits) and the direction of data flow. + +6. Gotchas / lessons learned — read `app/api/qbo/diagnose-ar/route.ts` and run `git log --oneline -20 -- app/api/qbo lib/services/qbo-client.ts lib/services/qbo-sync-service.ts migrations/051_create_qbo_tables.sql migrations/088_qbo_invoices_soft_delete.sql` (and inspect the "QBO AR diagnostics" work referenced in the recent `chore: check in pending work` commit) to fold in any real gotchas: rate limits, token-refresh failures, sandbox-vs-production quirks, AR/invoice reconciliation issues, soft-delete handling, realm mismatch, etc. Also check the completed quick-task dirs under `.planning/quick/` matching `*qbo*` (e.g. `260519-0oz-add-qbo-createpayment-createdeposit`, `260521-fci-stopgap-nightly-reconciliation`) for SUMMARY notes worth distilling. + +Then WRITE `QBO_INTEGRATION_HANDOFF.md` at the repo root as a self-contained document.

Project Overview + +Pulse is Wulf Consulting's internal PSA management dashboard (Next.js 16 + Postgres, syncing Autotask data). The v3.0 milestone's core value proposition: + +> 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. + +**Problem it solves:** Wulf's technicians receive a constant stream of Autotask tickets from KnowBe4 phish-alert-button reports, Microsoft's built-in "Report Message" flow, and manual spam/phishing complaints. Historically each ticket was triaged by hand — no deduplication across employees reporting the same campaign, no consistent severity call, no blast-radius visibility into Mimecast, and remediation notes/actions were ad hoc. + +**Who it's for:** Wulf's security operators/technicians (triaging tickets day to day) and admins (configuring per-client automation). + +**What was built:** An end-to-end pipeline — detect phishing/spam-report tickets → extract `.eml` evidence → look up Mimecast blast radius → deterministically classify (SPAM/UNWANTED/THREAT/USER_AWARENESS) → group duplicates into campaigns → propose (never auto-execute) remediation behind human approval → post a sanitized Autotask triage note → surface it all on a ticket-ID-addressable review page reachable via a real, production-confirmed Autotask LiveLink button → optionally automate the whole chain per-client via an opt-in gate. + +**Status:** Shipped 2026-07-17. 9 phases, 30 plans, 69 tasks. All 38 v1 requirements complete. + +**Explicit non-goals for this milestone** (deferred to a future v2): +- No automatic execution of remediation — every action (block sender, purge mailbox, revoke sessions, etc.) is *proposed* and *simulated* only; nothing destructive runs against a real mail/identity system yet (`REMEDEXEC-01..05`). +- No URL sandbox/detonation or URL reputation lookup (`ENRICH-01`). +- No LLM-backed classification layer — this milestone is intentionally deterministic (`ENRICH-02` reserves the interface for later). +- No fully automated ticket closure, no auto-created parent incidents, no auto-closed duplicates. +- No backfill of historical phishing tickets (~267 pre-existing tickets) — detection is forward-only from ship date. + +--- + +## 2. Architecture & Technical Decisions + +| Decision | Why | Phase | +|---|---|---| +| **Zero-LLM deterministic classifier** | Structured, size-bounded evidence in → deterministic verdict out. Avoids a prompt-injection surface from attacker-controlled email content ever reaching an LLM. | 19 | +| **Content-hash idempotency scoped to title+description only** | SHA-256 over `{title, description}` — excludes status/assignee/last-activity so routine ticket churn never re-triggers detection, while evidence (notes/time-entries/attachments) still refreshes on every rescan regardless of hash match. | 15 | +| **3-tier `.eml` selection** (`rfc.eml` exact → single non-wrapper `message/rfc822` candidate → `OriginatingEmail.eml` fallback) | Empirically derived from sampling 15 real production phishing tickets — content-type alone never disambiguates, since every sampled attachment shares `message/rfc822`. | 16 | +| **Hand-rolled SPF/DKIM/DMARC tokenizer**, not a library | The obvious library (`mailauth`) only exposes live-verification functions that perform DNS lookups and BIMI HTTP fetches — a hard violation of "never fetch anything from a message." | 16 | +| **3-tier campaign grouping key**: Message-ID → attachment-hash/URL-domain + subject + sender + 24h window → sender + normalized-subject + client + 24h window | Message-ID is the strongest, cheapest key; the fallbacks catch mass-blast duplicates lacking a shared Message-ID. Campaigns are never merged after the fact — out of scope by design. | 18 | +| **Mimecast blast-radius as a normalizing abstraction that never throws** | Unconditional fan-out over delivered/held/threat-event lookups, 5-minute Redis cache, degrades to an explicit `unavailable` state on any failure or missing config — the rest of the pipeline never blocks on Mimecast being down. | 17 | +| **THREAT requires BOTH delivery AND a malicious signal** | An auth failure alone on a message Mimecast fully held (reached no one) isn't a realized threat.

Key Decisions Log + +See Section 2 for the full architecture decision table. Notable individual calls worth calling out for new contributors: + +- **D-01 (Phase 19):** Deterministic classifier chosen over an LLM specifically to avoid attacker-controlled email content ever reaching a model prompt. +- **D-05 (Phase 17):** A single global Mimecast client (not per-tenant) was an accepted v1 limitation, documented in the module itself — later partially addressed by a post-ship quick task adding optional per-tenant client injection, though the default automatic path still uses the global client. +- **D-07 (Phase 18):** The EML parser is only invoked from the on-demand `/analyze` endpoint, not the automatic webhook/cron path — meaning fully automatic detection can only ever reach Tier 3 (weakest) campaign grouping until an operator has explicitly analyzed at least one report in that campaign. +- **D-09 (Phase 22):** URLs are rendered as inert, copy-only text in the operator review UI — a deliberately stricter posture than the triage-note's sanitize-and-describe approach, because this page is one an operator might actually click around in. + +--- + +## 6. Known Issues, Gaps, and Tech Debt + +**Real defects caught and fixed before/around ship:** + +1. **Phase 15 (pre-ship):** The webhook trigger originally branched on an Autotask payload field that real webhooks never populate — detection would have silently never fired against real data. Fixed by reading the ticket back from Postgres instead of trusting the payload shape. +2. **Phase 18 (found via live production verification, 2026-07-16):** Re-analyzing a single-report campaign created a *second* campaign row with the same grouping key, and the abandoned original campaign's report count was never decremented. Fixed with a signal-diverged guard plus a shared decrement helper; proven via 8 regression tests and a live production re-verification. +3. **Phase 23 (post-ship gap-closure, before milestone close):** Every additional report accumulating into an already-classified simulation campaign re-triggered a duplicate customer-visible "thanks for reporting" note. Fixed via an idempotent, audit-persisting wrapper — plus two second-order bugs found in review of that very fix (a stale-timestamp display bug, and a gap where the *manual* approval path had no awareness of an auto-posted note). All three fixed in one commit before close. + +**Process gap:** Phase 22 shipped all 6 plans and was marked complete without ever running formal verification — discovered only during the milestone-close requirements traceability check. A retroactive pass found the code correct (6/6 requirements), but **5 manual browser click-through checks remain outstanding**: full state-machine walkthrough, approve/remediate/mark-false-positive end-to-end, non-privileged role gating, the Mimecast-unavailable rendering state, and visual confirmation of URL inertness/clipboard-copy. Treat the review UI as code-correct but not yet UI-hardened. + +**Accepted, still-open items:** +- No retry if a webhook-triggered ticket isn't yet in Postgres when detection runs (backstop is a cron sweep that ships **disabled by default**). +- Webhook doesn't re-trigger detection on ticket update (deliberate, not a bug). +- No floor on the campaign-grouping report-count decrement; a pre-existing race condition in the "already grouped" check. +- The THREAT-tier "clicked > 0" escalation trigger was flagged as a reasoned proposal rather than an explicitly locked decision — never formally reconfirmed. +- Two pre-existing, unrelated failing tests (`itglue-search.test.ts`) persist across the whole milestone — confirmed to predate v3.0, out of scope by convention. + +**5 post-ship fixes** (2026-07-16 through 2026-07-18, all real production issues caught after ship): +1. Mimecast blast-radius errors were silently swallowed into a false "clean" result; date-window and multi-tenant handling fixed. +2. A confidence-percentage display bug showed maximum confidence (1.0) as "1% confidence" — the opposite of its true meaning. +3. A real KnowBe4 campaign using rotating lookalike domains was misclassified because only one simulation-vendor domain was allowlisted; also fixed a parse double-invocation race and a too-early auto-parse timing issue. +4. Added a new "mark as accidental report" resolution path (feature addition, not a bug fix). +5. Mimecast's held-message lookup had no date bounds, so an entire unrelated hold queue could inflate a campaign's blast-radius numbers — fixed with date filtering and sender-relevance matching (false held-message count went from 15 → 1 → 0 across the two fixes). + +--- + +## 7.

Core value proposition + +A security operator sees every phishing/spam-report ticket automatically triaged, +deduplicated into campaigns, and classified — with any destructive remediation gated +behind explicit human approval. Nothing in this system currently executes a real +destructive action against a mail or identity provider; every remediation action this +milestone is proposed-and-simulated only. + +**Trigger sources:** Autotask tickets created by (a) KnowBe4 phish-alert-button reports, +(b) Microsoft's built-in "Report Message" flow forwarded into a mailbox that syncs to +Autotask, (c) manual employee spam/phishing complaints. + +**Pipeline (single sentence):** detect ticket → extract `.eml` evidence → look up +Mimecast blast radius → deterministically classify → group into a campaign → propose +remediation behind human approval → post sanitized Autotask note → surface on a +ticket-ID-addressable review page reachable via a real Autotask LiveLink button → +optionally automate per-client via an opt-in gate. + +## 2. Explicit non-goals (this milestone) — deferred to a future "v2" + +These are known-missing, not accidentally missing — a future feature request in this +space should assume these don't exist yet: + +- **No real remediation execution.** No code path blocks a sender in Mimecast, deletes/ + moves a Graph mailbox item, purges via Defender/Exchange, revokes a session, or resets + a password. `REMEDEXEC-01..05` in the original requirements doc name these explicitly + as out-of-scope-for-v1. +- **No URL reputation/sandbox lookup** (`ENRICH-01`) — URLs are extracted and displayed, + never scored or detonated. +- **No LLM-backed classification** (`ENRICH-02`) — the classifier is 100% deterministic + code; an LLM layer was deliberately reserved as a future plug-in behind the same + interface, not built. +- **No automatic ticket closure, no auto-created parent incident, no auto-closed + duplicate tickets.** +- **No backfill** of ~267 pre-existing phishing tickets that predate this system — + detection is forward-only from ship date. +- **No per-tenant Mimecast client by default** — a single global Mimecast client serves + all companies (a documented v1 limitation; one post-ship quick task added *optional* + per-tenant client injection, but the automatic/webhook path still uses the global + client). + +## 3.

Architecture decisions worth knowing before proposing new features + +| # | Decision | Rationale | +|---|---|---| +| 1 | Zero-LLM deterministic classifier | Avoids attacker-controlled email content ever reaching a model prompt (prompt-injection surface). Any future AI-assisted classification should sit *behind* the existing verdict interface, not replace it, unless the injection risk is separately solved. | +| 2 | Content-hash idempotency = SHA-256(title + description) only | Deliberately excludes status/assignee/timestamp churn. Evidence (notes/attachments) still refreshes every rescan even on an unchanged hash. | +| 3 | 3-tier `.eml` selection | `rfc.eml` exact name → single non-wrapper `message/rfc822` candidate → `OriginatingEmail.eml` fallback. Content-type alone can't disambiguate (empirically confirmed against 15 real tickets). | +| 4 | Hand-rolled SPF/DKIM/DMARC tokenizer | The obvious library (`mailauth`) forces live DNS/BIMI-HTTP lookups — violates the "never fetch anything from message content" invariant that runs through this whole feature. | +| 5 | 3-tier campaign grouping key | Message-ID → attachment-hash/URL-domain + subject + sender + 24h window → sender + normalized-subject + client + 24h window. Campaigns are **never merged** after creation — explicitly out of scope. | +| 6 | Mimecast blast-radius never throws | Unconditional parallel fan-out (delivered/held/threat-event lookups), 5-min Redis cache, degrades to an explicit `{status:'unavailable', reason:...}` rather than blocking the pipeline. | +| 7 | THREAT requires delivery AND a malicious signal | An auth failure alone on a fully-held message (reached nobody) stays UNWANTED. Malicious signal = hard SPF/DKIM/DMARC fail OR the same attachment-hash/URL recurring across ≥2 reports in the campaign — no external reputation service involved. | +| 8 | Simulation-vendor allowlist is a TypeScript constant | Not a DB table — every rule stays unit-testable pure code. Exact-domain-or-proper-subdomain match only, never substring, to resist lookalike-domain spoofing. | +| 9 | Confidence = point-deduction from 1.0 | Each deduction names the specific missing evidence (no parsed message / no Mimecast data / no indicators) rather than an opaque score — this is a literal requirement (`CLASSIFY-03`), not incidental. | +| 10 | All remediation this milestone is simulated | No block/purge/reset methods exist yet on any integration client — a real "actually block this sender" feature is new integration work, not a flag flip. | +| 11 | `acknowledge_user` is the one auto-postable, non-destructive action | Everything else requires human approval by design; a new "auto-post X" feature should default to requiring the same explicit per-client opt-in Phase 23 established. | +| 12 | Per-company automation = 3 independent booleans, default off | `auto_parse` / `auto_classify` / `auto_report`. Report meaningfully depends on classify, which depends on parse (informational ordering only, not enforced in code). | +| 13 | URLs are inert, copy-only text in the operator UI | Stricter than the triage-note's sanitize-and-describe approach because this is an interactive page a human could click into. | +| 14 | Client-side permission checks reuse the exact server permission function | No bespoke `role === 'admin'` string checks anywhere in this feature — server remains sole enforcement boundary. | + +## 7. Known gaps / tech debt (don't silently rediscover these) + +- **Phase 22 (Approval UI) has 5 outstanding manual browser click-through checks** never + run: full state-machine walkthrough, approve/remediate/mark-false-positive end-to-end + with re-render, non-privileged role gating, Mimecast-unavailable rendering, URL + inertness/clipboard-copy visual confirmation. Code is verified; UI is not yet + browser-hardened. +- **No retry** if a webhook-triggered ticket row isn't yet in Postgres when detection + runs — only a warning log; the backstop cron sweep **ships disabled by default**. +- Webhook doesn't re-trigger detection on ticket *update*, only *create* (deliberate). +- No floor (`GREATEST(..., 0)`) on the campaign report-count decrement; a pre-existing + TOCTOU race in the "already grouped" check. +- The THREAT-tier "clicked > 0" escalation trigger was a reasoned proposal from research, + never formally re-confirmed as a locked decision. +- The automatic (webhook/cron) path only ever reaches Tier-3 (weakest) campaign grouping + until an operator has manually analyzed at least one report in that campaign — the EML + parser is only invoked from the on-demand analyze endpoint, decision #5/#3 above. +- Global (not per-tenant) Mimecast client remains the default for the automatic path. +- 2 pre-existing, unrelated failing tests (`itglue-search.test.ts`) — confirmed to + predate this feature entirely, not phishing-related. + +**3 real defects already found and fixed** (useful precedent — similar bug classes are +worth checking for in any new feature touching the same code): +1. Webhook trigger branching on an Autotask payload field that real webhooks never + populate (fixed by reading the ticket back from Postgres instead of trusting payload + shape). +2. Re-analyzing a single-report campaign created a duplicate campaign row with an + identical grouping key (a "no sibling match found" edge case fell through to + "create new" instead of "keep existing"). +3. Every additional report accumulating into an already-classified simulation campaign + re-triggered a duplicate customer-visible note (no idempotency guard on the + auto-post path, and — found in review of that very fix — the parallel *manual* + approval path had no equivalent guard either). + +**5 post-ship refinements** (2026-07-16 → 2026-07-18): Mimecast blast-radius date-window ++ silently-swallowed-error fix; a confidence-percentage display bug (1.0 confidence +showed as "1%"); expanded simulation-vendor allowlist + parse-idempotency + auto-parse +timing fix; new "mark as accidental report" action; Mimecast held-message false-positive +fix (unbounded hold-queue lookup inflating blast-radius counts). + +## 8.

Otherwise dynamically imports and calls `runMimecastIncrementalSync()` from `mimecast-sync-service.ts`, logging a one-line summary using the real `MimecastSyncResult` fields (`messagesUpserted`, `threatsUpserted`, `bodiesFetched`, `purgedMessages`, `errors.length`, `durationMs`). +- Added an `else if (config.sync_type === 'qbo')` branch: queries `integration_settings` for `key = 'qbo'` (mirroring the `pax8-daily` disable-check pattern exactly); if disabled, logs a skip line; otherwise dynamically imports `getQboSyncService` and calls `.incrementalSync('scheduled')`. +- Both new branches sit before the final `'incremental'` branch and catch-all `else`, which are unchanged — the catch-all remains reachable only for `'full'`/legacy full-sync types. +- `npx tsc --noEmit --pretty` passes clean. + +### Task 2 — Reschedule migration (`migrations/101_reschedule_mimecast_sync.sql`, commit `f447ac3`) +- New guarded migration: `UPDATE sync_schedules SET cron_expression = '45 4 * * *', updated_at = NOW() WHERE id = 'mimecast-sync' AND cron_expression = '0 2 * * *'` — a no-op if already moved, safe against clobbering a manual admin change. +- Applied the same UPDATE directly against the live `pulse-postgres` container (migrations only auto-apply on first volume boot per CLAUDE.md) — confirmed live: `mimecast-sync` now reads `45 4 * * *`; `qbo-sync-2am` and `veeam-full` unchanged at `0 2 * * *` (collision eliminated for mimecast-sync specifically, as intended — qbo-sync-2am and veeam-full no longer contend with mimecast-sync, though qbo-sync-2am and veeam-full still share 2am with each other, which was out of scope for this task). + +## Verification + +- `npx tsc --noEmit --pretty` — clean. +- Live DB: `SELECT cron_expression FROM sync_schedules WHERE id = 'mimecast-sync'` → `45 4 * * *`. +- No existing branch (`phishing-sweep`, `pax8-daily`, `veeam-*`, `incremental`, catch-all) modified. +- No test file exists for `sync-scheduler.ts` (only `mimecast-client.test.ts`), so no test changes were made, per plan constraint. + +## Deviations from plan + +None. Both tasks executed exactly as planned. + +## Note on this SUMMARY.md + +This file was originally written by the executor inside its isolated git worktree but was lost when the orchestrator removed the worktree (`git worktree remove --force`) without first running the standard rescue-before-remove step. Reconstructed immediately after from the executor's final report text and the actual `git show` output of both commits — content is accurate but not verbatim the original (same recovery situation documented previously in this repo for quick task 260717-a19).
