## Why
### Problem
When API tokens for Indexa Capital, Binance, or Bitpanda expire or are
revoked, syncs fail silently with 401/403 errors. Users have no way to
replace their credentials without disconnecting and recreating the
entire connection (losing account mappings and history).
## What
### Changes
- **Auth failure email notification**: on the final retry attempt (3rd
of 3), if a sync job fails with 401/403 for an API-key provider, an
email is sent to the user with a link to the connections settings page
- **Update credentials endpoint**: `PATCH
/settings/connections/{connection}/credentials` validates new
credentials against the provider API before saving, then triggers a sync
- **Update credentials dialog**: provider-specific form (API token for
Indexa/Bitpanda, API key + secret for Binance) shown via an "Update
Credentials" button in the error banner and dropdown menu
- **Mailable**: `BankingConnectionAuthFailedEmail` follows existing
patterns (queued, rate-limited, Markdown template)
- **Form request**: `UpdateConnectionCredentialsRequest` with dynamic
validation rules per provider and authorization check
### Files changed

## Verification
### Tests
- **12 new tests** across 2 test files, all passing:
- `SyncBankingConnectionJobTest`: 5 tests covering email sent on final
retry (Indexa 401, Binance 403), not sent before final retry, not sent
for non-auth errors, not sent for EnableBanking
- `ConnectionControllerTest`: 7 tests covering valid credential update
for each provider, invalid credentials, EnableBanking rejection,
authorization, feature flag, required field validation
- Full OpenBanking test suite: **145 tests, 473 assertions** passing
## Why
Investment and retirement accounts show balance over time, but there's
no way to see how much money was actually put in versus how much is
current value. Users can't tell at a glance whether their investments
are up or down.
## What
Adds an "invested amount" tracking system across the full stack:
**Backend**
- New `invested_amount` column on `account_balances` (nullable
bigInteger, cents, per-date)
- Auto-sync from providers: Indexa Capital (instruments_cost +
cash_amount), Bitpanda (fiat deposit/withdrawal history), Binance
(90-day windowed deposit/withdrawal with crypto→fiat conversion)
- Manual input support via Update Balance dialog
- Historical invested amount data in all balance evolution APIs (net
worth, account detail)
**Frontend**
- Dashed line on sparkline charts (dashboard + accounts page) showing
per-point historical invested amount alongside balance
- Dashed line on account detail charts (daily AreaChart + monthly
ComposedChart)
- Tooltips with labeled rows: Balance, Invested, Gain/loss (color-coded)
- Invested amount column in balances history modal
- Invested amount field in balance import wizard (CSV mapping)
- Demo account seeder updated with invested amount data

## Summary
- Add Bitpanda as a new exchange provider using a single API key
(`X-Api-Key` header) to sync crypto and fiat wallet balances
- Follow the same architecture as Binance: provider string on
`banking_connections`, dedicated API client, balance sync service,
controller, form request, job wiring, factory state, route, and frontend
dialog
- Convert crypto wallet balances to the user's target currency via
`CurrencyConversionService`; fiat wallets are added directly or
converted if in a different currency
- Bitpanda appears in all countries in the connect dialog (same as
Binance)
- 18 new tests covering controller validation, balance sync scenarios,
sync job delegation, expiry handling, and email suppression
## Summary
- Adds Binance as a third banking provider alongside EnableBanking and
Indexa Capital
- Binance appears in the institution list for **all countries**, with
the full list sorted alphabetically
- Creates a single "Crypto Portfolio" investment account with total
portfolio value converted to the user's preferred currency
- Supports direct fiat pairs (e.g. BTCEUR), USD stablecoin 1:1 mapping,
and USDT fallback conversion
## Changes
- **Migration**: adds encrypted `api_secret` column to
`banking_connections`
- **BinanceClient**: HMAC-SHA256 authenticated API client for account
data and ticker prices
- **BinanceBalanceSyncService**: converts all non-zero balances to fiat
via direct pairs or USDT fallback
- **BinanceController + ConnectBinanceRequest**: validates credentials,
creates connection and single account
- **SyncBankingConnectionJob**: new `syncBinance()` branch
- **AccountMappingController**: Binance uses Investment account type
- **Frontend**: Binance institution for all countries, API Key + Secret
form fields, alphabetically sorted list
- **Factory**: `binance()` state on `BankingConnectionFactory`
## Test plan
- [x] `BinanceControllerTest` — 6 tests (valid connection, invalid
credentials, account-mapping flag, feature flag, validation, user
currency)
- [x] `BinanceBalanceSyncTest` — 7 tests (direct EUR pair, USDT
fallback, USD stablecoins, locked balances, same-date update, empty
balances, missing external ID)
- [x] Full test suite passes (545 tests)
- [x] Manual: open connection dialog → select any country → Binance
appears alphabetically → select Binance → API Key + Secret form →
connect
## Summary
- Allow users to connect their Indexa Capital (Spanish robo-advisor)
account via API token
- Adds "Indexa Capital" option when selecting Spain in the bank
connection dialog
- Token-based auth flow: user enters API token (instead of OAuth
redirect), validated against Indexa API, stored encrypted
- Syncs portfolio balance only (no transactions) from the
`/accounts/{id}/performance` endpoint
- Accounts created as `Investment` type
- Reuses existing account mapping flow when the `account-mapping`
feature flag is active
- Disconnect flow skips session revocation for Indexa (no OAuth session
to revoke)
## New files
- `IndexaCapitalClient` — HTTP client for Indexa Capital API
(`X-AUTH-TOKEN`)
- `IndexaCapitalBalanceSyncService` — Syncs portfolio value into
`account_balances`
- `IndexaCapitalController` — Token validation + connection creation
- `ConnectIndexaCapitalRequest` — Form request validation
- Migration adding encrypted `api_token` column to `banking_connections`
## Test plan
- [x] 6 controller tests (connect, invalid token, mapping, feature flag,
validation, multi-account)
- [x] 4 balance sync tests (sync, update, skip, missing field)
- [x] 3 sync job tests (balance-only, no expire, no email for Indexa)
- [x] 1 disconnect test (no revokeSession for Indexa)
- [x] All 530 existing tests still pass
## Summary
- **Server-side filtering/sorting/search**: With encryption removed, all
transaction filtering, sorting, and full-text search (LIKE on
description + notes) now happens via SQL queries instead of client-side
IndexedDB with decryption
- **Cursor pagination**: Transactions are returned with cursor-based
pagination (default 50 per page, "Load More" pattern) instead of loading
all into IndexedDB
- **Removed IndexedDB dependency**: The main transactions page no longer
depends on Dexie/IndexedDB for data or sync — other pages (categorize,
accounts/show, budgets/show) are unaffected and will be migrated
separately
## Changes
| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `app/Models/Transaction.php` | Added `scopeApplyFilters` query scope |
| `app/Http/Requests/IndexTransactionRequest.php` | New form request for
filter validation |
| `app/Http/Controllers/TransactionController.php` | Server-filtered
cursor-paginated index, refactored bulkUpdate to reuse scope |
| `resources/js/pages/transactions/index.tsx` | Major rewrite —
server-driven filtering, sorting, pagination via `router.visit()` |
| `resources/js/components/transactions/transaction-filters.tsx` |
Search always enabled (removed encryption key dependency) |
| `resources/js/types/transaction.ts` | Added `ServerTransaction` type |
| `resources/js/contexts/sync-context.tsx` | Simplified — removed
transaction sync service |
| `tests/Feature/TransactionFilterTest.php` | 20 new Pest tests for all
filter scenarios |
## Test plan
- [x] Run `php artisan test` — all 523+ tests pass
- [x] Navigate to `/transactions` — paginated results load from server
- [x] Apply each filter type (date, amount, category, account, label,
search) and verify server round-trip
- [x] Test "uncategorized" category filter
- [x] Test combined filters
- [x] Test sorting by date, amount, description (ascending/descending)
- [x] Test "Load More" button for cursor pagination
- [x] Test bulk operations (select some → update, select all filtered →
update)
- [x] Verify URL persistence (refresh page with filters in URL)
- [x] Test search on both description and notes fields
## Summary
- Add `GET /api/transactions?encrypted=true` endpoint for paginated
listing of encrypted transactions
- Add `PATCH /api/transactions/bulk` endpoint for batch-updating
decrypted transaction data (max 50 per request, bypasses model events)
- Add `useDecryptTransactions` hook that mirrors the existing account
name decryption flow: fetches encrypted transactions page-by-page,
decrypts `description`/`notes` client-side via Web Crypto API, sends
plaintext back and clears IVs
- Wire the hook into `AppSidebarLayout` so decryption runs automatically
when the user unlocks their encryption key
- Once all transactions (and accounts) are decrypted, the encryption key
button in the header disappears automatically
## Test plan
- [x] 11 Pest tests covering encrypted/plaintext filtering, pagination,
user scoping, bulk update, authorization, validation, nullable notes,
guest access, and no-model-events behavior
- [x] Manual: create encrypted transactions, unlock encryption key,
verify transactions get decrypted and the key button disappears
## Summary
- Removes the `plaintext-transactions` Pennant feature flag — plaintext
is now the default for all users
- Removes encryption guards and `isPlaintext` conditionals from
transaction create/edit/import flows, keeping only the plaintext code
paths
- Makes `EncryptionKeyButton` conditional — only shown when user has
legacy encrypted accounts or transactions
- Removes encryption onboarding steps (`step-encryption-explained`,
`step-encryption-setup`) and related state/props
- Updates landing page to replace E2E encryption marketing with
privacy-first messaging ("Your Data, Your Rules" section)
- Updates privacy policy to replace E2E encryption claims with accurate
security language (encryption at rest, TLS in transit, no third-party
sharing)
- Cleans up tests to remove feature flag assertions and
`Feature::activate()` calls
**22 files changed, 145 insertions, 730 deletions**
## Test plan
- [x] Create a transaction without encryption key unlocked — should
succeed
- [x] EncryptionKeyButton should not appear in header for users with no
encrypted data
- [x] EncryptionKeyButton should appear for users with legacy encrypted
transactions/accounts
- [x] Landing page has no E2E encryption references, shows new privacy
section
- [x] Onboarding flow has no encryption setup steps
- [x] Privacy policy reflects accurate security language
- [x] Frontend builds successfully (`bun run build`)
- [x] All linting passes (`bun run lint`, `vendor/bin/pint --dirty`)
## Summary
- Adds **EnableBanking** as the first open banking provider, allowing
users to connect real bank accounts and automatically sync transactions
and balances
- Uses a **`BankingProviderInterface`** contract so future providers
(Plaid, GoCardless, etc.) can be added by implementing the same
interface
- Feature-flagged behind the **`open-banking`** Pennant flag (default:
off)
- Connected accounts are **unencrypted** and transactions have `source =
'enablebanking'`
### What's included
**Backend:**
- `BankingProviderInterface` contract + `EnableBankingProvider`
implementation (JWT RS256 auth)
- `BankingConnection` model with full lifecycle (pending →
awaiting_mapping → active → expired/revoked/error)
- `TransactionSyncService` — pagination, deduplication by
`external_transaction_id`, amount/date mapping
- `BalanceSyncService` — preferred balance type selection (CLBD → ITAV
fallback)
- Authorization flow: start auth → bank redirect → callback → session
creation → account mapping → sync
- `SyncBankingConnectionJob` (unique per connection, 3 retries) +
scheduled every 6 hours
- `banking:sync` artisan command
- 5 migrations: `banking_connections` table, account fields, transaction
`external_transaction_id`, `pending_accounts_data`, `linked_at`
**Frontend:**
- Manual vs Connected account choice in the create account dialog
- Multi-step bank connection dialog (country → bank selection →
confirmation → redirect)
- Account mapping page — map discovered bank accounts to existing
accounts, create new ones, or skip
- Settings/Connections page with status badges, sync/disconnect actions
- "Connected" badge on linked accounts in settings
**Tests:**
- 49 tests covering feature flags, controllers, account mapping,
transaction sync, balance sync, deduplication, and pagination
### Feature Flags
This PR introduces **two Pennant feature flags**:
1. **`open-banking`** — Gates the entire open banking feature
(institutions endpoint, authorization flow, connections page). When
disabled, all open banking routes return 404.
2. **`account-mapping`** — Controls whether users see an intermediate
account mapping step after connecting a bank. When **enabled**, users
are redirected to a mapping page where they can choose to create new
accounts, link to existing ones, or skip each discovered bank account.
When **disabled**, all discovered accounts are automatically created
(original behavior). Linked accounts only sync transactions from their
last transaction date and only update the current balance from the
provider (no historical balance calculation or daily balance tracking).
Enable per-user:
```bash
php artisan feature:enable open-banking user@example.com
php artisan feature:enable account-mapping user@example.com
```
Enable for all users:
```bash
php artisan feature:enable open-banking all
php artisan feature:enable account-mapping all
```
## Test plan
- [x] Enable feature flag: `php artisan feature:enable open-banking`
- [x] Verify "Connected" option appears in create account dialog
- [x] Start authorization flow and verify redirect to bank
- [x] With `account-mapping` **disabled**: verify callback creates
accounts directly and dispatches sync
- [x] With `account-mapping` **enabled**: verify callback redirects to
mapping page
- [x] Test mapping page: create new, link to existing, and skip actions
- [x] Verify linked accounts sync only from last transaction date and
only update current balance
- [x] Verify connections page shows "Setup Required" badge for
awaiting_mapping status
- [x] Run `php artisan banking:sync` and verify transactions sync
- [x] Verify connections page shows status, sync, and disconnect actions
- [x] Run full test suite: `php artisan test --compact`
## Summary
- Adds `plaintext-transactions` Pennant feature flag (defaults to
`false` / encryption ON)
- When active, new transactions are stored as plaintext (no client-side
encryption)
- Existing encrypted transactions continue to work — detection is based
on `description_iv` being NULL (plaintext) vs present (encrypted)
- Migration makes `description_iv` nullable on the transactions table
## Changes
**Backend:**
- Feature flag definition in `AppServiceProvider`, shared via
`HandleInertiaRequests`
- `StoreTransactionRequest` / `UpdateTransactionRequest` conditionally
require `description_iv`
- `TransactionFactory` gains a `plaintext()` state
**Frontend:**
- Edit dialog and import drawer skip encryption when flag is active
- `EncryptedTransactionDescription` renders plaintext directly when IV
is null
- All decryption loops handle both encrypted and plaintext transactions
- Rule re-evaluation stores notes as plaintext when flag is active
## Test plan
- [x] Run `php artisan migrate` to apply the migration
- [x] Activate flag: `php artisan feature:enable plaintext-transactions
all`
- [ ] Create a transaction — verify description is stored as plaintext
in DB (`description_iv` is NULL)
- [ ] Deactivate flag: `php artisan feature:disable
plaintext-transactions all`
- [ ] Create a transaction — verify encryption is still required (422
without IV)
- [x] Verify old encrypted transactions still display correctly
- [ ] Run `php artisan test --compact
tests/Feature/PlaintextTransactionsTest.php`
## Summary
- Store account names in plaintext instead of encrypting them
client-side. Encryption remains only for transaction descriptions and
notes.
- Existing encrypted account names are silently migrated when the user
unlocks their encryption key, via a new `useDecryptAccountNames` hook
that calls API endpoints to update each account.
- New `AccountName` component handles rendering both encrypted (legacy)
and plaintext accounts across the app.
## Test plan
- [x] Create a new account — name should be stored in plaintext
(`encrypted = false`, `name_iv = null`)
- [x] Unlock encryption key with existing encrypted accounts — they
should auto-migrate silently
- [x] After migration, verify accounts show `encrypted = false` in DB
and names are readable plaintext
- [x] Edit a migrated account — should work without encryption
- [x] Verify all account name displays work across dashboard, account
details, transactions, settings
## Summary
- Fixes automation rules not applying labels when creating transactions
manually or via CSV import
- Eager-loads the `labels` relationship on automation rules in both
`TransactionController` and `HandleInertiaRequests`
- Syncs `label_ids` on the transaction `store` endpoint (was accepted
but never persisted)
- Passes `automationRules` prop through the full component chain:
`index.tsx` → `TransactionActionsMenu` → `ImportTransactionsDrawer`, and
`index.tsx` → `EditTransactionDialog`
- Passes `automationRules` as the missing 5th argument to
`reEvaluateAll()`
Closes#61
## Test plan
- [x] Existing feature tests pass (`php artisan test
--filter=Transaction`, `--filter=AutomationRule`)
- [x] Pint, ESLint, and Prettier all pass
- [x] Manually verify: create a transaction matching an automation rule
with labels → labels are applied
- [x] Manually verify: import CSV with transactions matching rules with
labels → labels are applied
- [x] Manually verify: "Re-evaluate All" applies labels from matched
rules
## Summary
- Added label update support to the single transaction `update()`
endpoint
- Previously, labels could only be updated via the bulk update endpoint
- Now both endpoints support label updates with consistent behavior
## Changes
- **UpdateTransactionRequest**: Added `label_ids` validation (array of
UUIDs that must belong to user)
- **TransactionController@update**: Now handles label updates alongside
other attributes
- Syncs labels when `label_ids` is provided
- Reloads labels relationship for fresh data in events
- Fires single `updated` event after all changes
- **AssignTransactionToBudget listener**: Ensures labels are loaded
fresh after queue serialization
- **Tests**: Added 6 comprehensive tests covering all label update
scenarios
## Behavior
- **Don't send `label_ids`** → labels unchanged (partial update)
- **Send `label_ids: []`** → removes all labels
- **Send `label_ids: [uuid1, uuid2]`** → replaces labels with these
## Testing
When labels are updated, the `TransactionUpdated` event fires and the
transaction is automatically assigned to matching budgets (via queued
listener).
All tests pass (29 tests, 134 assertions).
Fixes the issue where transactions wouldn't appear in budget after
adding a matching label via the single transaction update endpoint.
## Overview
We're excited to introduce budgeting capabilities to Whisper Money! This
feature helps you take control of your finances by setting spending
limits and tracking your progress over time.

## What's New
### Create Flexible Budgets
- Set budgets for specific categories or labels
- Choose from monthly, weekly, bi-weekly, or custom periods
- Set your own budget start date for better alignment with your pay
schedule
### Track Your Spending
- Visual spending charts show how much you've spent vs. your budget
- See at a glance which budgets are on track and which need attention
- View all transactions that count toward each budget
### Smart Budget Management
- **Carry Over**: Unused budget amounts automatically roll into the next
period
- **Reset**: Unused amounts return to your available money pool
- Edit or delete budgets anytime as your needs change
### Easy Access
- New Budgets section in the main navigation
- Quick overview cards showing budget status
- Detailed budget pages with spending history and transaction lists
## How It Works
1. Create a budget by selecting a category or label and setting your
spending limit
2. Your transactions are automatically matched to relevant budgets
3. Track your progress with visual charts and spending summaries
4. Adjust your budgets as needed to stay on track with your financial
goals
This feature is now available behind a feature flag and can be enabled
for users who want to start budgeting their expenses.
## Summary
Add a labeling system for transactions that differs from categories in
that labels are ephemeral and created on-the-fly when assigned (no
pre-creation required). A transaction can have multiple labels
(many-to-many relationship), and labels can be used for filtering in the
transaction table and as actions in automation rules.
