## What
Adds an `agent:db` artisan command so agents (and humans) can run read
queries against the local or production database from the CLI.
```bash
php artisan agent:db "select id, email from users limit 5" # local, JSON (default)
php artisan agent:db --format=table "select count(*) from transactions" # console table
php artisan agent:db --prod "select count(*) from users" # production
```
### Options
- `--format=json` (default) — pretty-printed JSON
- `--format=table` — classic console table
- `--prod` — target the production connection (new `prod` connection
backed by `PROD_DB_URL`)
## Notes
- Read-only: uses `DB::select()`, so it won't run
`INSERT`/`UPDATE`/`DELETE`. Query errors are caught and reported.
- Adds a `querying-the-database` skill documenting the command
(auto-activates on prod/DB questions).
- De-duplicates the skills tree: `.agents/skills` is now the canonical
directory and `.claude/skills` is a symlink to it (previously both were
tracked as identical copies).
## Test plan
- [x] `php artisan test --filter=AgentDatabaseCommand` (4 passing: json,
table, invalid format, query error)
- [x] `vendor/bin/pint`
## Summary
- Always show a simplified Cashflow and charts explanation in the
category form
- Explain how each category type affects cashflow, income/spending
charts, top spending categories, savings, and investments
- For transfer categories, keep a cashflow chart visibility selector so
users can choose hidden/inflow/outflow
- Show savings and investment categories as outflows in the cashflow
chart and store default/new categories as outflow
- Add a new migration to update existing production savings/investment
categories to outflow
- Avoid user-facing Sankey terminology and update Spanish copy to use
dinero/saldo instead of efectivo
- Add missing Spanish translations and browser/feature coverage

## Summary
- soft-delete users by adding `deleted_at` to `users`
- rename deleted user emails with a timestamp prefix so original email
can be reused
- block email sends and banking follow-up work for deleted users while
preserving data

## Summary
- add signed landing links that unlock auth buttons while
HIDE_AUTH_BUTTONS is enabled
- persist the unlock in a secure cookie so desktop and installed PWA
users can still sign up
- add artisan command to generate signed landing auth links and test
coverage for the flow

## Summary
- Fixes `banks:set-logo` for JPEG images by adding a `makeJpeg()` test
helper and a full JPEG test case — the pipeline was working but
completely untested, meaning any regression would go undetected
- Implements `PromptsForMissingInput` so the command interactively
prompts for `bank` and `url` when they are not passed as arguments
## Summary
- Adds `banks:set-logo {bank} {url}` artisan command to download,
process, and assign a logo to a bank by UUID
- Installs `intervention/image:^3.0` (GD driver) for image processing
- Image is validated to be square (returns an error if not), resized
down to max 250×250px if needed, stored as PNG on the `public` disk at
`banks/logos/{uuid}.png`, and the bank's `logo` field is updated with
the public URL
## Usage
```
php artisan banks:set-logo <bank-uuid> <image-url>
```
## Tests
7 feature tests covering success, no-resize, bank not found, HTTP
failure, non-image content type, non-square image, and invalid image
content.
## Summary
- add a new `banks:check-logos` console command that validates all
non-null bank logo URLs weekly
- set broken/invalid bank logos to `null` and send an admin report email
to `ADMIN_EMAIL` when updates occur
- add weekly scheduling, admin mail config wiring, and feature tests for
valid/broken/head-fallback flows
## Testing
- vendor/bin/pint --dirty
- php artisan test tests/Feature/Console/CheckBankLogosCommandTest.php

## Why
### Problem
The default income categories lacked coverage for self-employed
individuals (freelancers, contractors, sole traders). Users in this
segment had no accurate category to classify their primary income
source.
## What
### Changes
- Added `Self-Employment Income` income category (icon: `Briefcase`,
color: `green`) to `CreateDefaultCategories::getBaseCategories()`
- Added Spanish translation `Ingresos por trabajo autónomo` to
`getSpanishTranslations()`
- Updated category count assertions in `CategoryTest` from 63 → 64
## Verification
### Tests
- `php artisan test --compact --filter="default categories"` — 2 tests,
7 assertions, all passing
## Summary
- Removed all `setupEncryptionKey()` / `visitWithEncryptionKey()` calls
from browser tests — encryption key setup in localStorage is no longer
needed since new users don't have encryption
- Removed `encryption_salt` from `UserFactory::onboarded()` state and
`OnboardingFlowTest` user creation
- Removed `name_iv` from `Account::factory()` calls in
`BankAccountsTest`
- Deleted `DemoEncryptionService` and its unit test — demo command now
stores plaintext account names and transaction descriptions
- Removed `demoEncryptionKey` Inertia shared prop and `encryption_key`
from demo config
- Removed encryption helper methods from `TestCase.php` and global
`setupEncryptionKey()` from `Pest.php`
## Test plan
- [x] Run `php artisan test --exclude-testsuite=Browser` — all
non-browser tests pass
- [x] Run `php artisan test --testsuite=Browser` — browser tests pass
without encryption key setup
- [x] Run `php artisan demo:reset` — demo account created with plaintext
data
- [x] Verify existing encryption migration tests still pass
(`EncryptionTest`, `DecryptTransactionsTest`,
`PlaintextTransactionsTest`)
## Summary
- Ensure `email_verified_at` is set when the demo account is created or
already exists but is unverified
- `email_verified_at` is not in the User model's `$fillable` array, so
set it directly on the model instead of via `create()`/`update()`
## Test plan
- [x] Added test that an existing unverified demo user gets verified on
`demo:reset`
- [x] Added assertion that newly created demo user has
`email_verified_at` set
- [x] All 3 demo reset tests pass
## Overview
This PR adds a flexible system for sending update emails to all Whisper
Money users. As the solo developer, you can now easily communicate
product updates, announcements, and news to your growing user base.
## Problem Solved
- **No easy way to send announcements**: Previously, there was no simple
way to broadcast important updates to all users
- **Manual process**: Would require writing custom scripts each time
- **No duplicate prevention**: Risk of accidentally sending the same
email multiple times
- **Version control**: Email content wasn't tracked in git
## Solution
A complete email system that lets you:
1. Write update emails as markdown templates (version controlled)
2. Send them with a single command
3. Automatic duplicate prevention (users only receive each update once)
4. Track who received what in the database
## How It Works
### 1. Create Email Template
Create a markdown file in `resources/views/mail/updates/`:
```blade
<x-mail::message>
# What's New in January 2026
Hi {{ $user->name }},
Your update content here...
<x-mail::button :url="'https://discord.gg/9UQWZECDDv'">
Join the Discord Community
</x-mail::button>
Víctor Falcón Ruíz
Founder & Solo Developer, Whisper Money
</x-mail::message>
```
### 2. Send to All Users
```bash
# Simple - one command
php artisan email:update first-update-jan-2026
# With options
php artisan email:update first-update-jan-2026 --subject="Personal Thank You" --exclude-demo
```
### 3. Automatic Tracking
- Users only receive each update once (tracked by identifier)
- Can send different updates to same users
- View history in `user_mail_logs` table
## First Email Included
The PR includes the first update email (`first-update-jan-2026`)
announcing:
- 240+ GitHub stars milestone
- First paying users
- Discord community invitation
- Canny roadmap links
- Personal message from Víctor as the solo developer
## Technical Details
### What's New
**Database:**
- Migration: Add `email_identifier` column to `user_mail_logs`
- Migration: Update unique constraint to `(user_id, email_type,
email_identifier)`
**Backend:**
- `DripEmailType` enum: Added `Update` case
- `UpdateEmail` mailable: Generic mailable accepting any view
- `SendUpdateEmailJob`: Handles sending + duplicate prevention
- `SendUpdateEmailCommand`: Artisan command with progress bar
- Updated all 6 drip email jobs to support new constraint
**Frontend:**
- Email template directory: `resources/views/mail/updates/`
- Comprehensive README with examples
**Tests:**
- Complete test suite: 11 tests covering all scenarios
- Tests duplicate prevention, filtering, queue behavior
### Command Options
```bash
php artisan email:update <view> [identifier] [options]
Arguments:
view Template name (e.g., "jan-2026-updates")
identifier Tracking ID (defaults to view name)
Options:
--subject= Custom email subject
--exclude-demo Skip demo account
--force Skip confirmation prompt
```
## Benefits
1. **Simple**: One command to send any update email
2. **Flexible**: Just create a new markdown view, no code changes needed
3. **Safe**: Confirmation prompt and duplicate prevention
4. **Fast**: Queued delivery, non-blocking
5. **Tracked**: Full audit trail in UserMailLog
6. **Consistent**: Follows existing drip email patterns
7. **Reusable**: Same command for all future update emails
8. **Version Controlled**: Email content is in git, reviewable
## Migration Path
To use in production:
```bash
# 1. Run migrations
php artisan migrate
# 2. Create your email template
vim resources/views/mail/updates/your-update.blade.php
# 3. Commit and deploy
git add resources/views/mail/updates/your-update.blade.php
git commit -m "Add update email"
git push
# 4. Send on production
php artisan email:update your-update
```
