FireAlert - 2026-07-23

I'll gather the necessary information from each PR to create a comprehensive release note. Let me fetch the details for all PRs.Now let me get the commits for each PR to gather more detailed information:# Overview

This release includes authentication hardening improvements, Protected Sites map visibility enhancements, and critical database maintenance fixes. The changes improve session security, extend fire alert visibility to Protected Sites, and resolve a long-standing issue where database cleanup crons were unable to advance their cutoff dates on persistent deployments.

What's Changed

Features & Fixes

  • fix: gate disabled alert-method buttons and repair Auth0 refresh-token flow: Enhanced authentication flow with automatic access token refresh and request retry on session expiration. Settings SMS/Email/Webhook buttons now properly respect the backend's enabled flag. Implemented session-expiration notifications and automatic logout handling with a toast message. Fixed a broken getCredentials() call that was passing the refresh token into the SDK's scope parameter instead of letting it manage the refresh token internally. Added real 401 recovery for both the tRPC client and axios wrapper with a de-duped refreshAccessToken() utility to prevent duplicate refreshes on concurrent 401s.

  • feat(map): show fires and incidents for Protected Sites: Extended map view to display fire alerts and incident boundaries for Protected Sites alongside user-owned sites. Added new alert.getAlertsForProtectedSites tRPC query that mirrors the existing alert.getAlerts endpoint, resolving sites through SiteRelation instead of userId. Protected Site alerts now support all existing features including date filters, alert details sheets, and the alerts/incidents view toggle with no additional UI changes required.

  • fix: db-cleanup cron never advances its cutoff date on long-running deployments: Fixed critical issue where the daily database cleanup cron had frozen cutoff dates on persistent Coolify deployments. The cleanup cutoff date was computed once at module load and never recomputed, causing accumulated backlog to go unprocessed. Restructured currentDateTimeAt1AM from a module-level const to be reassigned at the top of each request handler, ensuring fresh cutoff calculations on every invocation. Extended notification cleanup to also capture and delete failed/skipped notifications (where isSkipped: true and sentAt was never set) once 90 days old by createdAt timestamp.

Summary

This release includes two critical hotfixes that improve app reliability and user authentication experience. Both fixes address race conditions and error handling issues discovered during testing.

Highlights

  • Cold-start notification deep-linking now reliable — OneSignal listener registered immediately on app mount, eliminating race condition where notification taps failed silently on killed-app restarts.
  • Email verification flow improved — Unverified Auth0 accounts now trigger the correct verification modal instead of generic login failures.

Changes by PR

PR #353 — fix: deeplink cold-start race — register OneSignal listener before auth resolves

Problem: On cold start via notification tap, deep-linking silently failed. The OneSignal click listener was gated behind auth state initialization (~1-3s), but the SDK fired the click event at app startup (t=0). Result: notification taps landed on home screen with no map focus.

Solution:

  • OneSignalContext.tsx — Initialize OneSignal and attach click listener immediately on mount, independent of auth state. Gated init still runs for subscription/sync setup. initialize() is idempotent.
  • Home.tsx — Isolate camera zoom tRPC fetch in its own try/catch so failed zoom doesn't block incident dispatch.
  • Removed debug logging.

Impact: Incident and alert notifications now open reliably on cold start, app maps focus immediately, and bottom sheets load without delay.

PR: https://github.com/Plant-for-the-Planet-org/FireAlert/pull/353

PR #354 — fix(login): show email verification modal for Auth0 access_denied / email_not_verified

Problem: Auth0 returns access_denied with email_not_verified for unverified accounts, not unauthorized. The old check only matched unauthorized, so all three failure paths showed generic Login Failed toast, and the verification modal never appeared.

Solution:

  • New apps/nativeapp/app/utils/authErrors.ts — isUnverifiedEmailError() helper matches unauthorized, access_denied + email_not_verified, and message fallback.
  • Login.tsx — Added showEmailVerificationModal() helper; wired all three error paths (hook error, catch block, null creds) to use it.
  • Removed transparent from Modal background to prevent iOS safe-area bleed-through.

Impact: Unverified and signup-return users now see the verification modal correctly. No more silent loading spinner or incorrect toast messages.

PR: https://github.com/Plant-for-the-Planet-org/FireAlert/pull/354

Ops & QA Notes

  • No schema migrations in these PRs.
  • Deploy native app + server together for best UX.
  • QA steps:
    • Cold-start incident notification tap → app opens → map focuses → bottom sheet loads ✓
    • Cold-start alert notification tap → app opens → map focuses → alert sheet loads ✓
    • Warm-start (app in background) notification tap still works ✓
    • Unverified sign-in → verification modal shown (not toast) ✓
    • Verified sign-in → normal login completes ✓
    • Cancel Auth0 browser → generic failure (toast), not verification modal ✓

Would you like me to refine the format, add more details, or create a GitHub release directly?

Summary

This release delivers end-to-end push notification deep-linking for the native app (Android + iOS), fixes two critical server-side bugs that were silently dropping all device notifications, and ships a structured logfmt observability improvement for BetterStack. A batch of security and maintenance dependency upgrades is also included.

Changes

Critical Bug Fixes — #331

  • AlertMethodMethod type-only import — enum was erased at compile time, causing a silent ReferenceError that skipped all device notifications. Fixed to a value import.
  • Unfiltered notification iteration — Promise.all was iterating the original notifications array instead of filteredNotifications, sending pushes to disabled alert methods. Fixed.
  • Logger debug level leaking to Logtail — debug entries were routed as INFO in production. Now gated to NODE_ENV === 'development'.

Deep-Linking for Push Notifications — #331

  • firealert:// custom scheme — notifications now use firealert://alert/:alertId, bypassing iOS Safari intercept.
  • Cold-start queuing — notification tap events are queued if NavigationContainer isn't ready yet, then flushed on onReady.
  • Map zoom on tap — Home screen locates the tapped alert and calls camera.setCamera via calculateAlertCamera; skips default user-location zoom when alertId/incidentId is in params.
  • Re-tap support — __ts nonce in deep-link params forces useEffect to re-fire on repeated taps.
  • OneSignal URL suppression — OneSignal_suppress_launch_urls = true added to iOS Info.plist, mirroring Android's existing config.
  • Platform config — Android intent-filters (/incident, /verify, firealert://), MainActivity.onNewIntent; iOS AppDelegate URL bridging, app group entitlement, AASA headers via Next.js config; server serves /.well-known/apple-app-site-association and assetlinks.json.

Android: OneSignal Permission Fix — #338 / #339

  • Fixed permission state not being correctly propagated to OneSignal, causing push registration failures on some Android devices.
  • Version bump and CodeRabbit feedback addressed.

Observability: Reduced BetterStack Log Volume — #340

  • Collapsed per-provider/per-incident/per-notification info lines into single logfmt summaries (stage=... event=...); verbose logs are dev-only.
  • Added escapeLogfmt() helper to prevent stack traces from fragmenting log records.
  • Removed clientApiKey and raw destination (PII) from log tags.
  • Fixed unsafe (error as Error) casts with error instanceof Error guards.
  • Fixed GEO provider tags in site alert logs; notification sender no longer halts after skipped batches.

Tooling — #329

  • Added .claude/ config for Claude Code worktree management; cleaned up older feature instruction files.

Summary

  • This release includes three merged PRs that clean up logs, harden notification transactions, and improve the incident page UX with hover/focus interactivity and timezone-aware times.

Highlights

  • Less noisy and more structured logs.
  • Safer transaction handling when creating incident notifications.
  • Incident page: hover/focus highlights related incidents on the map.
  • Incident times show timezone-aware formatting where site coords exist.

Changes by PR

  • PR #321 — Feature: optimising logs

  • PR #322 — refactor: restructure transaction logic in CreateIncidentNotifications

  • PR #324 — Enhance incident page with hover/focus interactivity and timezone support

    • Adds hover and keyboard-focus interactivity for related incidents on the incident page.
    • Highlights related incident polygons and shows related incident fire points non-interactively.
    • Formats incident times with timezone offsets when site coordinates are available.
    • Adds small UI wiring and feature-flag checks for staged rollout.
    • PR: https://github.com/Plant-for-the-Planet-org/FireAlert/pull/324

Ops & QA notes

  • No schema migrations in these PRs. Deploy server and frontend together for best UX.
  • Watch notification cron logs after deploy to confirm cleaner logs and no new transaction errors.
  • QA steps:
    • Verify cron runs produce concise logs and the key stats are visible.
    • Trigger notification flows; confirm no partial writes and that notifications are created as expected.
    • Open an incident page with related incidents. Hover rows and tabs; confirm map highlight and non-interactive related markers.
    • Check incident time formatting for a site with known coordinates.

FireAlert - 2026-03-23

Overview

Introduces proximity-based fire incident detection and association, a JSONB metadata column on SiteIncident to track centre time-series, and STOP_ALERTS notification suppression across incident and site-alert flows.

What's Changed

Features & Fixes

  • Add SiteIncident.metadata, migration & doc ([#293]): Adds a JSONB metadata column to SiteIncident via migration to support structured per-incident data. Documents the planned proximity-based association model using metadata.centres ({latitude, longitude, at}) and the strategy for selecting the closest active incident within INCIDENT_PROXIMITY_KM. Existing stale-incident resolution and association logic in SiteIncidentService.ts is commented out as preparatory work, kept for reference.

  • Enforce STOP_ALERTS notification suppression ([#295]): Skips incident and site-alert notifications when reviewStatus is STOP_ALERTS, logging suppressed counts per method. Adds unsubscribe token support to incident email notifications. Aligns reviewStatus typing and validation against Prisma.SiteIncidentReviewStatus across server and native layers. Adds documentation covering stop-alerts behaviour, unsubscribe flow, and review-status alignment.

  • feat(fire-incident): add incident boundary utils and optimized country data ([#297 ]): Wires up full proximity-based incident detection and centre time-series tracking. Introduces DistanceCalculatorService (Turf.js) for great-circle distance and closest-incident resolution, IncidentMetadataService for parsing/initialising/updating centres (latest at index 0, capped at 100 entries), and SiteIncidentProximityService to orchestrate detection, creation, update, and alert association. Extends SiteIncidentRepository with findActiveIncidentsBySiteId and updateIncidentMetadata. Integrates the proximity service into SiteIncidentService to replace the previously commented-out logic, routing create/update decisions through proximity detection.

Introduces

Fire Incident

We are Introducing Fire Incident. We see Sending Notifications for the Alerts are not very efficient about what & how fires are moving in our sites, so going forward we are planning to group Fires to Send more meaningful notifications. [More Info].(https://www.notion.so/plantfortheplanet/Fire-Incident-Feature-Introduction-312372a41a4180b0b57fe874f2281b5f?source=copy_link)
This is the Version 1 Release there will be more Improvements to come on the way. So far We are only changing Email Notifications. Mobile apps will soon have a update. There won't be much significant updates other than Incident Details.
