Caveat 2 (premium sub had no data source) -> RESOLVED:
- src/services/subscriptionService.js: resolves a premium tier by npub. Two
sources, both optional (absent => null => unchanged): PREMIUM_NPUBS operator
allowlist (npub1/hex[:tier]) works TODAY with zero backend dependency, and an
optional SMIRK_PREMIUM_STATUS_URL HTTP endpoint for full automation. Cached.
- identityService.entitlementsForUser populates user.subscription_tier from it
(by smirk_public_key) before the snapshot, so an active sub unlocks cosmetics.
(The Smirk backend's /premium/status is self-only, so a by-npub service lookup
is the one remaining backend addition for full automation — documented.)
Caveat 1 (client signing was bare scaffold) -> HARDENED:
- html/js/smirkChatSign.js now does the Nostr-scope-grant retry (sign first; on
NOT_AUTHORIZED, getNostrPublicKey() once + retry), same as SmirkAuth — so a
returning user signs with one approval instead of silently falling back. Still
feature-detected + graceful. A real Smirk wallet click is the last confirm.
Docs updated (MONETIZATION.md, CHAT_AND_NOSTR.md). Tests: +6 (allowlist hex/npub1,
HTTP active/inactive+cache, identityService unlock, non-premium unchanged).
Suite 57 suites / 413 tests green.
Migration 024 adds a server-authoritative cosmetic_catalog table (seeds today's 4 packs). New CatalogService loads it (cached, falls back to a built-in default when the table is absent). entitlements.snapshotForUser is rewritten to the three-way unlock rule — a pack unlocks via: it's free, an explicit grant, lifetime spend >= its threshold, OR premium tier >= its tier. This kills the old bug where ANY purchase (total_credits_purchased>0 -> level 'credits') unlocked EVERY premium pack, and makes '1 credit -> skin A, 10-pack -> pack B' expressible. Credit-buying no longer auto-promotes to a premium tier. Snapshot now ships a catalog summary to the client (the seed for killing the client-side split-brain next). identityService loads + passes the catalog. +13 tests (catalogEntitlements_ultra), suite 48/343 green.
First stone of the P1 foundation (branch feat/credits-catalog-foundation). Next: client consumes the served catalog (retires RK.PACKS), direct payment -> mint 1 credit, then the buy modal reflects the unified model.
