PROBLEM:
Session closedown script was generating generic handoff documents that only
included framework stats and git file lists, with NO session-specific content
about what was actually accomplished, issues found, or next priorities.
This resulted in handoff documents saying only:
- "Review framework performance"
- "Continue development work"
While missing critical information like:
- Publication research completed (20 publications, NZ timezones)
- Launch strategy created (2-week compressed plan)
- Strategic decisions made (Caixin Global first, article variations)
- Critical bugs identified (docs.html language issues, blog-curation errors)
- Specific next session tasks (P0: fix docs.html, P1: fix blog-curation)
SOLUTION:
Added three mandatory sections to handoff document template:
1. 🎯 SESSION ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Major deliverables created
- Strategic decisions made
- Research & analysis completed
- With examples and instructions to fill with actual content
2. 🚨 CRITICAL ISSUES IDENTIFIED
- P0: Blockers (must fix before major work)
- P1: High value (should fix soon)
- P2: Nice-to-have (can defer)
- With examples and instructions
3. 📋 NEXT SESSION PRIORITIES
- Critical path (ordered tasks with time estimates)
- Secondary tasks (if time permits)
- Decision points (when to proceed vs. pivot)
- With examples and instructions
SAFEGUARDS ADDED:
- Prominent warnings that sections must be manually filled
- Console warnings after document generation
- Completeness checklist at end of document
- Clear examples showing what should be documented
FILES CHANGED:
- scripts/session-closedown.js: Added template sections with instructions
- SESSION_CLOSEDOWN_2025-10-26_CORRECTED.md: Manual correction with actual content
This prevents future sessions from getting generic/useless handoff documents.

Problem:
- Card view uses sections array which contains English text
- Translated documents showed English content in cards
- Only document title was translated
Solution:
- Set sections = undefined for translated documents
- Forces frontend to use traditional full-document view
- Traditional view displays content_html which IS translated
Result:
- Translated documents now show fully translated content
- Card view disabled for translations (traditional view instead)
- All content (title + body) now displays in German/French
Testing:
- German: "Einführung in den Tractatus-Rahmen", "Was ist Tractatus?"
- content_html confirmed 17KB of translated German text

Problem:
- DeepL API with tag_handling='html' mangled markdown structure
- Translated markdown lost H2 headers and line breaks
- Sections couldn't be extracted from translated content
- Frontend showed no cards for translated documents
Root Cause:
- DeepL's HTML tag handling treated markdown as HTML
- Result: HTML entities (>), no line breaks, corrupted structure
Workaround Solution:
- Use English document sections (preserved structure)
- Display translated document title
- Card titles in English, but card content uses translated HTML
- This allows cards to render correctly while preserving UX
Files Changed:
- src/utils/sections.util.js: Section extraction utilities (created)
- src/controllers/documents.controller.js: Return English sections for translations
Limitations:
- Card section titles remain in English
- Full translated content still displays correctly
- TODO: Re-translate with proper markdown preservation

Closes#16
Problem: Claude Code was skipping handoff documents despite explicit instructions in
SESSION_CLOSEDOWN_*.md files. This is a 27027-style pattern recognition failure where
the learned pattern "Warmup → run session-init → report ready" overrode the explicit
instruction to read handoff documents.
Root Cause: Voluntary compliance failure - relying on Claude to remember to read
handoff documents after running session-init.js.
Solution: Architectural enforcement via auto-injection
Implementation:
- Modified scripts/session-init.js to automatically detect and parse SESSION_CLOSEDOWN_*.md
- Section 1a now extracts and displays:
• Priorities from previous session
• Recent commits (recent work)
• Known issues/blockers
• Cleanup summary
- Handoff context injected into session-init output automatically
- No voluntary compliance needed - information appears unavoidably
New Instruction (inst_083):
- Quadrant: SYSTEM
- Persistence: HIGH
- Scope: PERMANENT
- Verification: MANDATORY
- Documents architectural enforcement mechanism
- Synced to MongoDB database
Testing:
- Verified with current session handoff (SESSION_CLOSEDOWN_2025-10-25.md)
- Successfully extracted priorities: "Review framework performance, Continue development work"
- Successfully extracted recent work: RESEARCH_DOCUMENTATION_PLAN.md commit (a3329ff)
- Successfully extracted cleanup: 8 background processes killed
Impact:
- Prevents loss of session context across sessions/compaction
- Makes handoff priorities unavoidable (appears in session-init output)
- Architectural solution to procedural compliance problem

Planning document for potential public research publication of framework
implementation, with appropriate anonymization and factual accuracy requirements.
Key sections:
- Verified metrics only (enforcement coverage progression)
- Explicit limitations and what we CANNOT claim
- Anonymization requirements (generic patterns vs website specifics)
- Publication tiers (public research vs internal docs)
- Humble communication strategy (factual claims only)
Critical corrections:
- No fabricated timelines (framework built October 2025, not "3 months")
- Enforcement coverage ≠ compliance rates (architectural vs behavioral metrics)
- Anecdotal findings acknowledged, systematic validation needed
Next steps:
- Test session-init.js and session-closedown.js (next session)
- Fix bugs if discovered
- Gather verified metrics with source citations
- Draft research paper using only factual claims

Problem: Claude failed to recognize "ffs" code word despite inst_082 being active.
Root cause: No architectural enforcement to check for trigger words on every user message.
Solution:
- Created .claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js that runs on UserPromptSubmit
- Detects "ffs" → instructs to run framework-stats.js (inst_082)
- Detects "ff " prefix → instructs to run framework-audit-response.js (inst_078)
- Registered hook in .claude/settings.json
Testing:
✅ "ffs" detection works correctly
✅ "ff " prefix detection works correctly
✅ Normal messages pass through silently
Philosophy: Governance enforced architecturally, not by voluntary compliance.

Fixed broken "Decisions Over Time" chart that wasn't displaying bars.
Root cause: Empty divs with percentage heights collapsed in flex containers.
Fixes applied:
1. **Pixel heights instead of percentages**
- Calculate absolute pixel heights from h-48 container (192px)
- Percentage heights don't work in flex containers with items-end
2. **Non-breaking space inside bars**
- Added to prevent empty div collapse
- Even with height set, empty divs can collapse in some layouts
3. **Decision count labels**
- Display count above each bar for exact numbers
- Shows both visual proportion (bar height) and exact value (label)
4. **Minimum 10px height**
- Ensures small values are always visible
- Prevents bars from disappearing for low counts
5. **Wider bars**
- Changed from max-w-16 (64px) to w-3/4 (75% width)
- More visible and easier to interact with
Timeline modes working:
- ✅ 6-Hourly (24h) - 4 bars showing last 24 hours in 6-hour buckets
- ✅ Daily (7d) - 7 bars showing last 7 days
- ✅ Weekly (4w) - 4 bars showing last 4 weeks
All modes show current snapshot updated on refresh.

Problem:
- nginx serves blog.html as static file, bypassing Express middleware
- setCsrfToken middleware never runs
- No CSRF cookie set
- Newsletter subscription fails with 403 Forbidden
Root cause:
nginx config: 'try_files $uri @proxy' serves static files directly
