## 🚪 Why?
### Problem
Automation rule evaluation was happening entirely on the frontend,
relying on the client to fetch rules, loop over transactions, and apply
category/label/note changes. This meant evaluation was tied to
browser-side decryption logic, couldn't be triggered server-side, and
had no reliable progress reporting for bulk operations.
## 🔑 What?
### Changes
- **Single re-evaluation**: `POST
/transactions/{transaction}/re-evaluate-rules` applies all matching
rules immediately and returns the updated transaction; the frontend
updates local state from the response.
- **Bulk re-evaluation**: `POST /transactions/re-evaluate-rules`
dispatches a queued job and returns a `job_id`; the frontend polls `GET
/transactions/re-evaluate-rules/status/{jobId}` ~every second, updates a
progress toast, and refreshes the list when done.
- **Note support**: `AutomationRuleService` now applies plain
(unencrypted) `action_note` actions; encrypted notes are skipped since
the backend cannot decrypt them.
- **Dirty-only saves**: `AutomationRuleService::applyActions()` now
tracks whether any field changed and only calls `saveQuietly()` when
needed, avoiding unnecessary writes.
- **Encrypted transactions skipped**: Transactions with `description_iv`
are excluded from bulk queries and silently skipped on single
re-evaluation (existing behavior preserved).
- **Frontend cleanup**: Removed `evaluateRules`,
`appendNoteIfNotPresent`, and related crypto imports from
`transaction-list.tsx`, `index.tsx`,
`use-re-evaluate-all-transactions.tsx`, and
`transaction-actions-menu.tsx`.
## ✅ Verification
### Tests
- New: `tests/Feature/ReEvaluateTransactionRulesTest.php` — 14 passing
tests covering:
- Single re-evaluation applies category, label, and note
- Single re-evaluation skips encrypted transactions
- Bulk job dispatched and returns 202 with job_id
- Bulk status polling returns `processing` and `done`
- Partial bulk (specific transaction_ids) only processes selected
transactions
- Encrypted transactions excluded from bulk processing
- Unauthenticated requests are rejected (401)
### Manual Verification
- Row dropdown "Re-evaluate rules" calls backend and updates the row in
place
- Bulk "Re-evaluate All Expenses" dispatches job, shows progress toast,
refreshes list on completion
- Encrypted transactions are silently skipped in both flows
