Every mutating form now carries the CSRF token as a hidden field, and the upload route accepts it as a multipart field as well as a header. Driving the real UI in Firefox found what the header-only tests could not: Create Draft, Save, Publish, Delete and the up/down buttons all posted without a token and were rejected. Adds npm run check-site, which verifies a running Site from the outside and exits non-zero so it can gate a cutover.
menu-admin
Uploads, orders and publishes the customer-facing menus of a restaurant Site as
photographed Pages, replacing the scp-a-JPG workflow. One instance per Site;
docs/plan.md is the agreed design and CONTEXT.md is the glossary.
Status
Built: Site config, the Menu Set store, the image pipeline, the customer-facing
renderer (landing page, Section pages, archived sets, media route) with the
approved design, the admin (sign in, create a set, upload and reorder Pages,
preview, publish, restore, delete), the verify/repair CLI, the container and
the Ansible playbook. Not yet done: the parallel-run deployment on monoco,
which needs a human present.
Deploying
./deploy.sh 2026-09-22 # tests, build, push to registry.tanshu.com
then the playbook in ansible-playbooks/menu-admin/ — its readme covers the
parallel run, the site.env step that gives the admin a password, and cutover.
After deploying, check the running site from the outside (read-only, exits non-zero on failure, so it can gate a cutover):
npm run check-site -- https://menu-new.hopsngrains.com

The Ansible playbook lives in ansible-playbooks/menu-admin/, beside the other
playbooks, because that is where it is run from.
Working on it
Node 24 or newer runs the TypeScript sources directly.
npm install
npm test # node:test
npm run typecheck # tsc --noEmit
npm run seed # placeholder Pages in .dev/data, for design review
npm run dev # http://localhost:3000 against .dev
To sign in locally, put a password hash in .dev/site.env:
printf 'ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH=%s\nSESSION_SECRET=%s\n' \
"$(node -e "import('./src/auth.ts').then(async m => process.stdout.write(await m.hashPassword('your password')))")" \
"$(node -e "process.stdout.write(require('node:crypto').randomBytes(32).toString('base64url'))")" \
> .dev/site.env
Who can do what
/ and /<section>/ are public. /admin needs the password; a Draft's Pages
are served only to a signed-in session, and Originals have no route at all.
Storage model
data/
├── originals/<section>/<set-id>/<page-id>.<hash>.<ext> # kept, never served
├── drafts/<section>/<set-id>/ # manifest.json + variants
└── published/<section>/<slug>/ # manifest.json + variants
The directory decides a Menu Set's state; the manifest carries metadata only.
<slug> is the valid-until date, else the publication date. The Current Menu
Set for a Section is the published one with the newest publishedAt. Published
sets are immutable: changing a menu means publishing a new set.
