### CL-002: Priority 1 Refactor (Phase 1) — `actions/index.js` split foundation

date: 2026-03-12  
author: Cline  
scope: `actions/index.js`, `actions/core/*`, `actions/services/legacyActionsService.js`, `actions/clients/README.md`, `memory-bank/*`  
type: change  
rationale: Reduce coupling in the actions monolith by extracting core helpers while keeping backward-compatible exports for existing consumers.  
impact: Lower regression blast radius for future actions-related changes; no intended functional behavior change.  
status: completed

Summary:
Extracted helper concerns from `actions/index.js` into focused `actions/core` modules (`env`, `logger`, `hash`, `token`, `headers`). Replaced `actions/index.js` with a compatibility barrel and moved operational wrappers into `actions/services/legacyActionsService.js` with imports from core helpers.

Validation:

- Branch created: `0000-update-actions-monolith`.
- Compatibility preserved by re-exporting legacy service functions plus core exports from `actions/index.js`.
- Lint run for regression check.

Follow-ups:

- Phase 2: split `legacyActionsService` by domain into dedicated service/client modules.
- Add helper-focused automated tests for core modules and export parity checks.

---

### CL-003: Priority 1 Refactor (Phase 2) — service grouping via compatibility layer

date: 2026-03-12  
author: Cline  
scope: `actions/services/*`, `actions/index.js`, `memory-bank/*`  
type: change  
rationale: Continue reducing monolith risk by introducing domain service boundaries while preserving public action exports.  
impact: Maintains backward compatibility for existing `../actions` imports; improves maintainability and safer future migration to targeted imports.  
status: completed

Summary:
Added grouped service modules (`searchService`, `caseService`, `accountService`, `portalService`, `documentService`, `referenceDataService`, `notifyService`, `adminService`, `integrationService`) plus `actions/services/index.js` barrel. Updated `actions/index.js` to export from `./services` (and core modules), keeping legacy function names/signatures available.

Validation:

- Service export coverage check confirms all legacy exports are represented in grouped services.
- `npm run lint` still fails due legacy Next/ESLint option incompatibility (tooling issue, unchanged by this refactor).

Follow-ups:

- Incrementally migrate high-churn consumers to direct service imports.
- Add automated export-parity and helper unit tests.

---

### CL-004: Priority 1 Refactor (Phase 3) — targeted consumer import migration

date: 2026-03-12  
author: Cline  
scope: `components/case/summary.js`, `pages/api/email/notify.js`, selected `pages/api/endpoint/*`, `memory-bank/*`  
type: change  
rationale: Begin replacing broad `actions` barrel imports with focused service/core module imports in high-churn and representative endpoint areas.  
impact: Lower coupling to monolithic action entrypoint while preserving behavior and public compatibility.  
status: completed

Summary:
Migrated targeted consumers to direct imports from `actions/services/*` and `actions/core/*` without changing function signatures or route contracts.

Validation:

- Lint still blocked by repository ESLint/Next option compatibility issue (pre-existing tooling configuration).
- Manual testing remains required for search/case/myportal/auth/notify/file matrix.

Follow-ups:

- Continue phased import migration for additional `pages/api/endpoint/**` handlers.
- Add export-parity and helper-level tests as planned.

---

### CL-005: Priority 1 Refactor (Phase 4) — helper hardening + redacted logging baseline

date: 2026-03-12  
author: Cline  
scope: `actions/core/{guards,logger}.js`, `actions/index.js`, selected API handlers  
type: change  
rationale: Introduce low-risk guard and redaction primitives, then apply them to sensitive/high-churn API paths to reduce injection/privacy risk while preserving behavior.  
impact: Better input hygiene and safer diagnostics in selected notify/login/contact flows; no intended contract changes.  
status: completed

Summary:
Added `guards` helper module (`isNonEmptyString`, `sanitizeString`, `escapeODataString`) and logger redaction utility (`redactSensitive`). Adopted these helpers in `notify`, `getpreferredlanguage_api`, and `createcrmtask_api` handlers.

Validation:

- `npm run lint` remains blocked by existing Next/ESLint options incompatibility in repository tooling.
- Targeted diff review confirms changes are scoped to helper hardening and selected handlers.

Follow-ups:

- Continue Phase 4 adoption for additional sensitive file/email/auth handlers.
- Add focused unit tests for `guards` and `redactSensitive` behavior.

### CL-006: Priority 1 Refactor — consumer migration pass (portal/form/admin utilities)

date: 2026-03-12  
author: Cline  
scope: `components/admin/*`, `components/case/*`, `components/myportal/*`, `components/elements/index.js`, `components/utils/index.js`, `lib/*`, `memory-bank/*`  
type: change  
rationale: Continue Phase 3-style decoupling by replacing broad `actions` barrel imports with focused service/core imports in high-use consumer files while preserving behavior.  
impact: Lower coupling to monolithic action barrel and clearer dependency boundaries; no intended functional behavior change.  
status: completed

Summary:
Migrated a targeted set of portal/form/admin utility consumers from `../../actions`/`../../../actions` to explicit imports from `actions/services/*` and `actions/core/*`. Also resolved migration-side compile issues in `components/myportal/topthree_reps.js` (duplicate import source and invalid `res.status` usage in client context).

Validation:

- In-scope consumer files now have no broad `from "../../actions"` / `from "../../../actions"` imports.
- `npm run lint` re-run; result unchanged and blocked by pre-existing Next/ESLint option incompatibility.

Follow-ups:

- Continue migrating remaining broad `actions` imports in `components/myportal/viewall.js`, `components/search/addresssearchresults.js`, unsubscribe flows, and selected API endpoints.
- Add focused manual smoke checks for myportal representations and awaiting-submission deletion/edit flows after this import migration.

date: 2026-03-12  
author: Cline  
scope: `components/myportal/viewall.js`, `components/search/addresssearchresults.js`, `pages/unsubscribe/[watchlistid].js`, `pages/unsubscribeall/[watchlistid].js`, `memory-bank/*`  
type: change  
rationale: Continue Phase 3 decoupling by removing additional broad `actions` barrel imports in high-use myportal/search/unsubscribe flows and replacing them with focused service/core imports.  
impact: Reduced coupling to monolithic action barrel with intended behavior parity; no API contract changes intended.  
status: completed

Summary:
Migrated four additional consumers away from `../../actions`:

- `components/myportal/viewall.js` -> `actions/services/documentService`, `actions/services/portalService`, `actions/core/logger`
- `components/search/addresssearchresults.js` -> `actions/services/portalService`
- `pages/unsubscribe/[watchlistid].js` -> `actions/core/{hash,token,headers,logger}`
- `pages/unsubscribeall/[watchlistid].js` -> `actions/core/{hash,token,headers,logger}`

Validation:

- Regex verification confirms these four files no longer import from the broad `actions` barrel.
- Repository-wide broad-import scan now reports 11 matches total, including comment-only occurrences and remaining endpoint/file handlers pending migration.

Follow-ups:

- Migrate remaining non-comment broad imports in selected `pages/api/endpoint/*` and `pages/api/file/*` handlers.
- Run focused manual smoke checks for myportal view-all watch/unwatch + unsubscribe routes (EN/CY path sanity and negative paths).

---

date: 2026-03-12  
author: Cline  
scope: `pages/api/endpoint/*`, `pages/api/file/*` (selected handlers), `memory-bank/*`  
type: change  
rationale: Continue Phase 3 migration by replacing broad `actions` barrel imports in selected endpoint/file proxy handlers with focused `actions/core/*` and service module imports.  
impact: Further reduces monolithic import coupling in API paths while preserving existing request/response behavior and hash/token/header patterns.  
status: completed

Summary:
Migrated these handlers away from broad `../../../actions` imports:

- `pages/api/endpoint/getmylpacases_api.js`
    - `getLPA` -> `actions/services/referenceDataService`
    - `azureHeaders`, `consoleLogger`, `getToken`, `hashAPIPath` -> `actions/core/*`
    - removed local duplicated `hashAPIPath` implementation
- `pages/api/endpoint/getbasicdnssearchpaged_api.js`
- `pages/api/endpoint/getsearchdocumentdetailspaged_api.js`
- `pages/api/endpoint/getbasicsearchpaged_api.js`
- `pages/api/file/getawaitingsubmissionfromblobproxy.js`
- `pages/api/file/getrepsblobproxy.js`
- `pages/api/file/getbloblistproxy.js`
- `pages/api/file/createappealcompletemessageproxy_api.js`

Validation:

- Regex scans over `pages/api/endpoint` and `pages/api/file` show **0** remaining broad `from "../../../actions"` imports.
- `git status --short` confirms this chunk is isolated to the targeted endpoint/file handlers.

Follow-ups:

- Run focused manual smoke checks for touched endpoint/file flows (paged search APIs, LPA case retrieval, blob proxy endpoints).
- Continue hardening pass for sensitive handlers with guard/redaction helpers where not yet applied.

date: 2026-03-13  
author: Cline  
scope: `actions/services/*` consumer and endpoint migrations (completed), planning handover docs  
type: change  
rationale: Record that the current import-migration wave has been checked in and completed via pull request, and set the next refactor slice to start on a new branch.  
impact: Clear project continuity and reduced risk of overlap between completed import migration work and upcoming `legacyActionsService` decomposition.  
status: completed

Summary:

- Import migration wave is now completed, checked in, and PR’d.

- Next chunk is explicitly designated as a new-branch activity focused on splitting `actions/services/legacyActionsService.js` into smaller direct service/client modules.

Validation:

- Broad `.../actions` import scans now show no active matches in `.js` files (legacy references are comment-only/removed).
- Branch history confirms migration commits are present and ordered for safe rollback.

Follow-ups:

- Create new branch for Phase 5 decomposition work.
- Start with low-risk extraction slices from `legacyActionsService.js` (reference/search first), then portal/document batches.

- Import checks confirm:
    - `searchService.js` -> `./searchDirectService`
    - `referenceDataService.js` -> `./referenceDataDirectService`
- Branch/status check confirms only Phase 5 slice files are modified on the new branch.

Follow-ups:

- Continue portal/document extraction slices from `legacyActionsService.js` in small batches.
- After each slice, re-point corresponding grouped service modules and remove dead wrappers once no longer referenced.

---

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `actions/services/documentDirectService.js`, `actions/services/documentService.js`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Continue Phase 5 decomposition by extracting document/file wrappers from `legacyActionsService.js` into a dedicated direct module while preserving grouped service API compatibility.
impact: Document/file grouped service exports now route through focused direct implementation; legacy coupling reduced for document domain with no expected caller contract changes.
status: completed

Summary:

- Added `documentDirectService.js` with extracted blob/file upload, download, pdf, and container helpers.

### CL-016: Phase 6 hardening — parity tests, safe dedupe, and logging cleanup

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `actions/services/*DirectService.js`, `actions/services/httpServiceUtils.js`, `tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Start post-Phase-5 hardening by adding focused parity checks, reducing repeated axios/error-handling patterns without contract changes, and removing noisy logs in sensitive service paths.
impact: Improved maintainability and safety posture in service layer with preserved grouped-service signatures/return shapes; added regression guard for service export stability.
status: completed

Summary:

- Added `tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` to verify:
    - grouped service import/export parity for search/reference/document/portal/account/case/admin/integration/notify
    - `actions/services/index.js` re-export list stability
- Added `actions/services/httpServiceUtils.js` with shared helpers:
    - `logAndReturnResponse`
    - `buildEmptyValueErrorResponse`
    - `logAndReturnEmptyValueErrorResponse`
- Applied low-risk dedupe refactors in:
    - `searchDirectService.js`
    - `referenceDataDirectService.js`
    - `caseDirectService.js`
    - `adminDirectService.js`
- Removed debug `console.log` traces from sensitive/noisy direct service flows in:

- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing warning set)
- Targeted smoke/negative checks on local dev server:
    - `GET /advancedsearch` and `GET /cy/advancedsearch` -> 200
    - `GET /case` and `GET /cy/case` -> 200
    - `GET /myportal` and `GET /cy/myportal` -> 307 to `/auth/signin` (unauthenticated negative path)
    - `GET /api/file/getbloblistproxy?container=test&casefolderID=test` -> 400 (negative path)
    - `POST /api/email/notify` with `{}` -> 400 (negative path)
    - `GET /searchresults` and `/cy/searchresults` -> 500 due pre-existing SSR serialization issue (`initialState.search.searchString` undefined)

Follow-ups:

- Investigate/fix pre-existing `/searchresults` SSR serialization issue before broader search smoke confidence sign-off.
- Optional next increment: extend behavioural coverage to document/portal/account/notify/integration direct-service contracts.

---

### CL-017: Phase 7 hardening — search SSR fix + behavioural expansion for remaining service domains

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `pages/searchresults.js`, `tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Start Phase 7 from a new branch based on `origin/SIPS-Development`, fix known pre-existing `/searchresults` SSR serialization failure, and extend behavioural/negative-path coverage for remaining direct-service domains.
impact: Search results SSR now safely serializes when query `q` is absent; behavioural confidence improved across document/portal/account/notify/integration service contracts with no signature/return-shape changes.
status: completed

Summary:

- Created branch: `TASK21988a-phase7-postphase6-hardening` (from `origin/SIPS-Development`).
- Fixed pre-existing SSR issue in `pages/searchresults.js` by changing:
    - `setSearch(query.q)` -> `setSearch(query?.q || "")`
- Added `tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` with mocked-axios behavioural assertions for:
    - document
    - portal
    - account
    - notify
    - integration
- Included feasible negative-path checks for relay/hash/token-sensitive behavior patterns (hashed URL composition and existing per-function error contracts).

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only, no new lint errors introduced
- Manual smoke/negative-path checks (local dev on `localhost:3001` due `3000` in use):
    - `/searchresults`, `/cy/searchresults` -> 200
    - `/case`, `/cy/case` -> 200
    - `/myportal`, `/cy/myportal` -> 307 to `/auth/signin`
    - `/api/file/getbloblistproxy?container=test&casefolderID=test` -> 400
    - `POST /api/email/notify` with `{}` -> 400

Follow-ups:

- Continue incremental hardening in sensitive relay/hash/token flows without changing external contracts.
- Keep lint warning backlog separate from this refactor stream unless explicitly scoped.

Rollback plan:

- Revert `pages/searchresults.js` and remove `tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` if regression is observed.

### CL-018: Phase 8 hardening — hash enforcement and negative-path standardization in sensitive APIs

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `pages/api/file/{deleteblobcase,deleteblobrep,createappealcompletemessage_api}.js`, `pages/api/endpoint/getportallogin_api.js`, `actions/services/{documentDirectService,portalDirectService}.js`, `tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Deliver a small reversible hardening slice by re-enforcing hash guards in high-risk handlers, standardizing invalid-input negative paths, and reducing noisy/sensitive logging while preserving external contracts.
impact: Stronger hash/integrity guard posture and consistent 400 negative paths for invalid/missing hash and required params; no intended response-shape or signature changes.
status: completed

Summary:

- Started from latest `origin/SIPS-Development` on new branch `TASK22017-phase8-hardening-slice`.
- Re-enabled/enforced hash validation in:
    - `deleteblobcase`
    - `deleteblobrep`
    - `createappealcompletemessage_api`
- Standardized early 400 handling for missing required query params where feasible:
    - container/casefolder/repfile/tempcaseref/emailAddress checks as applicable
- Hardened `getportallogin_api`:
    - explicit early validation for email/hash before token fetch
    - removed unnecessary lodash branch complexity while preserving output behavior
- Improved logging discipline in sensitive flow:
    - removed noisy `console.log` traces from `createappealcompletemessage_api`
    - switched error logging to `consoleLogger`
- Added parity updates required for existing callers after hash re-enforcement:
    - `documentDirectService` now appends hash on `deleteblobcase` and `deleteblobrep`
    - `portalDirectService` now appends hash for `createappealcompletemessage_api` call using existing hash path contract
- Added focused phase-8 tests:
    - `tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
    - covers invalid/missing hash and missing key inputs as applicable across the 4 target handlers
    - includes one valid-hash happy-path contract check for `getportallogin_api` via mocks

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)
- `node tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` warnings; no new lint errors)
- Manual HTTP checks (local server `http://localhost:3001`):
    - invalid/missing hash for all 4 handlers -> 400
    - missing required key params where tested -> 400
    - valid-hash spot-check (`getportallogin_api`) still returned 400 due upstream relay/CRM behavior in local env (hash gate passed, downstream dependency failed)

Follow-ups:

- Investigate local relay/CRM dependency behavior for `getportallogin_api` happy path in integrated environment.
- Continue incremental hash/negative-path hardening for other sensitive `pages/api/file/**` handlers still carrying commented bypass patterns.

Rollback plan:

- Revert the four hardened API files and the two direct-service hash append updates.
- Remove `tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs` if the full phase-8 slice is rolled back.
- Re-run phase6/phase7 baseline tests and lint to confirm rollback parity.

- `node tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase9/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` warnings; no new lint errors)
- Manual HTTP negative-path checks on `localhost:3000`:
    - missing/invalid hash for each selected handler -> 400
    - missing required key params where tested -> 400
- Valid-hash HTTP spot-check:
    - `POST /api/file/uploadsinglefile?hash=<valid>` -> 200 (hash generated from `.env.local` key)

Follow-ups:

- Continue incremental hardening slices for remaining sensitive handlers with commented/bypassed hash checks.

Rollback plan:

- Revert the 4 hardened API handlers and 2 caller parity service files.
- Remove `tests/phase9/service-behaviour.test.cjs` if rolling back full phase-9 slice.
- Re-run phase6/7/8/9 tests and lint to confirm rollback parity.

### CL-020: Phase 10 hardening — file retrieval handlers negative-path standardization

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `pages/api/file/{getawaitingsubmissionfromblob,getprogressobjblob,getbloblist,getrepsblob}.js`, `tests/phase10/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Continue connected hardening slices on the same work-item branch, targeting additional sensitive file retrieval handlers with inconsistent early guards and legacy commented hash/debug handling.
impact: Stronger and more consistent 400 negative-path behavior for missing/invalid hash and missing key params, with no intended signature or response-shape contract changes.
status: completed

Summary:

- Continued from Phase 9 on branch `TASK22019-phase-9-hardening`.
- Hardened 4 additional handlers:
    - `getawaitingsubmissionfromblob`
    - `getprogressobjblob`
    - `getbloblist`
    - `getrepsblob`
- Added explicit early guards for required query/hash inputs.
- Standardized hash mismatch handling to early 400 return.
- Removed legacy commented debug blocks in touched handlers.
- Added focused phase-10 tests:
    - `tests/phase10/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
    - includes negative-path coverage for all 4 handlers and one valid-hash mocked happy path.

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)
- `node tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase9/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase10/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` warnings)
- Manual HTTP checks (`localhost:3000`):
    - missing hash for each selected phase-10 handler -> 400
    - valid hash `getbloblist` spot-check -> 500 due local downstream/storage dependency constraints

Follow-ups:

- Continue next incremental slice for remaining sensitive handlers with commented/bypassed hash checks.

Rollback plan:

- Revert the 4 hardened API handlers.
- Remove `tests/phase10/service-behaviour.test.cjs` if rolling back full phase-10 slice.
- Re-run phase6/7/8/9/10 tests + lint to confirm rollback parity.

### CL-024: Phase 14 fix — authenticated server-side hash signing for browser callers

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `actions/services/{documentDirectService,portalDirectService}.js`, `pages/api/endpoint/gethash_api.js`, `tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Fix runtime break in authenticated new-appeal journey where client-side hash generation attempted to use server-only `HASHKEY`.
impact: Restores browser flow while preserving hash-guard posture by moving hash generation to authenticated server endpoint; no intended external API contract changes.
status: completed

Summary:

- Added `gethash_api` endpoint to sign allow-listed API paths server-side.
- Endpoint enforces authenticated session and rejects unsupported paths.
- Updated direct services to fetch hash from signer endpoint for browser calls.
- Added server-side fallback hashing only when `HASHKEY` exists (non-browser contexts).
- Added phase-14 tests for missing-path, invalid-path, unauthenticated, and happy-path signer behavior.

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass

- `node tests/phase13/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing warnings)

Follow-ups:

- Keep signer allow-list tight and expand only for explicitly required browser-side hash use cases.
- Continue removing legacy client-side direct hash assumptions as encountered.

### CL-025: Phase 14 closeout follow-up — portal-login signer adoption + contract alignment fixes

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `actions/services/accountDirectService.js`, `pages/api/endpoint/gethash_api.js`, `tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `pages/api/file/getrepsblob.js`, `components/elements/index.js`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Extend browser-safe hash signing to portal-login call path, keep signer allow-list explicit, and align an over-tightened file guard with actual endpoint contract discovered during runtime verification.
impact: Removes remaining browser-side hash risk in portal login path; preserves API response contracts while restoring route-accurate parameter validation and resolving Quill runtime import issue.
status: completed

Summary:

- Updated `accountDirectService.getPortalLogin` to use `/api/endpoint/gethash_api` for signed hash retrieval in browser contexts.
- Added `/api/endpoint/getportallogin_api` to signer endpoint allow-list in `gethash_api.js`.
- Updated tests to reflect signer-driven behavior and allow-list coverage:
    - `tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
    - `tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
- Applied follow-up runtime/contract fixes confirmed during manual verification:
    - `pages/api/file/getrepsblob.js`: removed `casefolderID` hard requirement and pass-through argument to align with route usage (`container + hash`).
    - `components/elements/index.js`: restored missing `updateLinks` import required by Quill-related flow.
- Branch pushed with follow-up commits:
    - `6094874`
    - `b8fa514`

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)
- `node tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase9/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase10/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)

- `node tests/phase12/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `node tests/phase13/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (7/7)
- `node tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing hook dependency warnings)

Follow-ups:

- Keep signer allow-list expansion minimal and task-driven.
- Continue replacing remaining browser-side direct hash assumptions only where flows require it.
- Confirm work-item/branch naming alignment for any subsequent phase slices if strict tracker continuity is required.

author: Cline
scope: `pages/api/file/{upload,uploadsinglefile,createappealcompletemessage_api,setupcontainer}.js`, `tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Deliver a small reversible consistency-only hardening slice by standardizing missing/invalid hash negative paths and required input handling in additional sensitive file handlers.
impact: Consistent early 400 behavior for missing/invalid hash and missing required params while preserving existing response shapes/signatures.
status: completed

Summary:

- Started new branch from `origin/SIPS-Development`: `TASK22028-phase15-hardening-slice`.
- Applied minimal hardening updates:
    - `upload.js`: explicit missing-hash guard before hash comparison.
    - `uploadsinglefile.js`: explicit missing-hash guard before hash comparison.
    - `createappealcompletemessage_api.js`: added missing-hash guard to existing required-input guard block.
    - `setupcontainer.js`: standardized to early-return on hash mismatch; contract and status behavior preserved.
- Added focused tests:
    - `tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
    - covers missing-hash negative paths for all selected handlers
    - includes required-input negative paths and one valid-hash happy-path shape check.

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)

- `node tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing hook dependency warnings)
- Manual checks on `localhost:3002`:
    - invalid/missing hash for each selected handler -> 400
    - missing required params where applicable -> 400
    - valid-hash spot-check (`setupcontainer`) -> 200

Follow-ups:

- Continue small-batch consistency hardening for remaining sensitive handlers where guard patterns are still inconsistent.
- Keep manual happy-path checks constrained to feasible local dependencies; document downstream/environment-caused failures separately.

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `pages/api/endpoint/gethash_api.js`, `tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
type: change
rationale: Resolve runtime failure where browser-side `deleteAwaitingSubmissionsFromBlob` hash signing requested a path not present in signer allow-list.
impact: Restores browser-safe hash signing for delete-blob-case flow without weakening auth/session guard on signer endpoint.
status: completed

Summary:

- Added `/api/file/deleteblobcase` to `gethash_api` allow-list.
- Added focused test coverage in phase-14 suite for the new allow-listed path.

Validation:

- `node tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (6/6)
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)

date: 2026-03-13
author: Cline
scope: `components/myportal/{viewall,topthree_reps}.js`, `i18n.js`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Align representation delete calls to stable case reference identifier and resolve missing locale namespace mapping for new-appeal route context.
impact: Prevents delete-call identifier mismatches in myportal representation flows and restores expected translation namespace availability for `/newappeal/[appealtypes]`.
status: completed

Summary:

- Updated delete-representation callers to pass `caseRef` instead of display/ticket values in:
    - `components/myportal/topthree_reps.js`
    - `components/myportal/viewall.js`
- Included related view-all styling/class tidy updates and watched-case list refresh filtering adjustment.
- Added missing `myportal` namespace for route key:
    - `i18n.js` -> `/newappeal/[appealtypes]`

Validation:

- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (12/12)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing)

### CL-032: Phase 18 additional consolidation slices — endpoint/file consistency and guard hygiene

date: 2026-03-14
author: Cline
scope: `pages/api/endpoint/{deletewatchedcases_api,getaccounts_api,getbasicsearchpaged_api,getappealpdfdocuments_api}.js`, `pages/api/file/{deleteblob,deleteawaitingsubmissionfromblob,getprogressobjblob,getbloblist,createcase_api,updatecase_api,editRepJson}.js`, `tests/phase18/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Complete the user-requested three additional small, reversible hardening slices (logging hygiene, hash-guard flow consistency, and required-input guard consistency) without broad refactor or contract drift.
impact: Improves consistency of negative-path behavior and reduces noisy logging in selected sensitive handlers while preserving response/signature contracts.
status: completed

Summary:

- Implemented all three requested additional slices:
    1. endpoint logging/input hygiene
    2. file hash-guard flow consistency
    3. create/update input-guard + logging hygiene
- Endpoint updates:
    - `deletewatchedcases_api`: added required `watchedCaseID` early 400 guard and removed direct URL logging.
    - `getaccounts_api`: added required `emailAddress` early 400 guard and removed direct query logging.
    - `getbasicsearchpaged_api`: added required `searchString` early 400 guard and removed noisy query logging.
    - `getappealpdfdocuments_api`: added required `incidentid` early 400 guard and removed direct URL logging.
- File handler updates:
    - standardized hash-check flow by removing redundant post-validation branches in:
        - `deleteblob`
        - `deleteawaitingsubmissionfromblob`
        - `getprogressobjblob`
        - `getbloblist`
    - added required-input early 400 guards in:
        - `createcase_api` (contact/appealType/container/lpa)
        - `updatecase_api` (collection/appealObj/incident/body)
    - removed noisy tag logging in `editRepJson`.
- Added focused test pack:
    - `tests/phase18/service-behaviour.test.cjs` with negative-path and contract-preserving happy-path checks (8/8 pass).

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (12/12)
- `node tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase9/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase10/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase11/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `node tests/phase12/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `node tests/phase13/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (7/7)
- `node tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (9/9)
- `node tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase16/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `node tests/phase17/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (6/6)
- `node tests/phase18/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` warnings)

Follow-ups:

- Optional: execute integrated manual HTTP matrix for phase-18 touched handlers in an environment with full relay/storage dependencies for non-mocked happy-path verification.

### CL-033: Phase 19 endpoint consistency slice — createwatchedcases guard hardening + noisy log cleanup

date: 2026-03-14
author: Cline
scope: `pages/api/endpoint/{createwatchedcases_api,getappealtypes_api,getdnslist_api}.js`, `tests/phase19/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Deliver a small reversible consistency-only slice for selected sensitive endpoint handlers by standardizing invalid required input handling and removing noisy logging without changing contracts.
impact: Improves negative-path consistency and logging hygiene for selected handlers; response signatures/shapes preserved.
status: completed

Summary:

- `createwatchedcases_api` now consistently rejects missing/malformed required `@odata.bind` values with early 400.
- Removed noisy query URL logging in:
    - `getappealtypes_api`
    - `getdnslist_api`
- Added focused behavioural test pack:
    - `tests/phase19/service-behaviour.test.cjs` (5 tests)

Validation:

- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (12/12)
- `node tests/phase8/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase9/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase10/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase11/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `node tests/phase12/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `node tests/phase13/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (7/7)
- `node tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (9/9)
- `node tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `node tests/phase16/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (4/4)
- `node tests/phase17/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (6/6)
- `node tests/phase18/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
- `node tests/phase19/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing hook dependency warnings)

Follow-ups:

- Continue same small-batch consistency pattern for remaining sensitive endpoint handlers only where clear guard/logging drift exists.

### CL-034: Phase 20 endpoint consistency slice — dns/basic-search guard + logging cleanup

date: 2026-03-14
author: Cline
scope: `pages/api/endpoint/{getbasicdnssearch_api,getbasicdnsurlsearch_api,getbasicsearchdetailspaged_api}.js`, `tests/phase20/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
type: change
rationale: Deliver a small reversible consistency-only slice by removing noisy logging and standardizing required-input negative-path handling in additional sensitive endpoint handlers.
impact: Improves endpoint negative-path consistency and logging hygiene while preserving response signatures/shapes.
status: completed

Summary:

- Removed noisy `console.log` query logging in `getbasicdnssearch_api`.
- Added early 400 handling for missing/empty `searchString` in `getbasicdnsurlsearch_api`.
- Added early 400 handling for missing required params (`appealTypeName`, `primaryIdAttribute`, `incidentID`) in `getbasicsearchdetailspaged_api`.
- Added focused behavioural test pack:
    - `tests/phase20/service-behaviour.test.cjs` (5 tests)
