Clean up Ansible-specific and outdated documentation

REMOVED: ======== ❌ ANSIBLE_HANDOFF.md - Ansible team will get from git history ❌ ANSIBLE_TECHNICAL_REFERENCE.md - Ansible team will get from git history ❌ MOVE_ANSIBLE_TO_SEPARATE_REPO.md - Migration complete, no longer needed ❌ SETUP_COMPLETE.md - Outdated summary ❌ TESTING_STATUS.md - Outdated status RATIONALE: ========== Ansible code has been removed from this repo and belongs in infrastructure repo. These docs were for the migration process and are no longer relevant to the POTE application repo. Ansible team can retrieve these files from git history if needed: git show d40b412:ANSIBLE_HANDOFF.md git show d40b412:ANSIBLE_TECHNICAL_REFERENCE.md KEPT: ===== ✅ CUSTOMIZATION_CHECKLIST.md - Still useful for config reference ✅ CI_PIPELINE_COMPLETE.md - Current CI documentation ✅ All quickstart guides ✅ All deployment docs
Add comprehensive CI pipeline documentation

 # CI Pipeline - Complete Security Suite
 **Enhanced CI/CD pipeline with comprehensive security scanning layers.**
 ---
 ## 🎯 What Changed
 ### ❌ Removed
 - **`ansible/` directory** - Moved to infrastructure repository (where it belongs)
 - **`ANSIBLE_INTEGRATION.md`** - Redundant with handoff docs
 ### ✅ Kept (Reference Documentation)
 - **`ANSIBLE_HANDOFF.md`** - Integration guide for your Ansible team
 - **`ANSIBLE_TECHNICAL_REFERENCE.md`** - Exact commands, paths, procedures
 - **`CUSTOMIZATION_CHECKLIST.md`** - Configuration reference
 - **`MOVE_ANSIBLE_TO_SEPARATE_REPO.md`** - Migration guide
 ### 🚀 Enhanced
 - **`.github/workflows/ci.yml`** - Added 5 new security scanning jobs
 ---
 ## 🔐 Security Layers
 ### 1. Secret Scanning (Gitleaks)
 **Tool:** [Gitleaks](https://github.com/gitleaks/gitleaks)  
 **Purpose:** Detect exposed secrets in code and git history
 **Scans for:**
 - API keys
 - Passwords
 - Tokens
 - Private keys
 - Database credentials
 **Features:**
 - Scans entire git history (`fetch-depth: 0`)
 - Redacted output (doesn't expose secrets in logs)
 - Continues on error (won't block CI)
 ```yaml
 container: zricethezav/gitleaks:latest
 command: gitleaks detect --source . --no-banner --redact --exit-code 0
 ```
 ---
 ### 2. Security Scan (Safety + Bandit)
 **Tools:** [Safety](https://pyup.io/safety/) + [Bandit](https://bandit.readthedocs.io/)
 #### Safety - Dependency Vulnerabilities
 **Purpose:** Check Python dependencies against CVE database
 **Scans for:**
 - Known vulnerabilities in packages
 - Outdated packages with security issues
 - CVE references
 ```bash
 pip install safety
 safety check --json
 ```
 #### Bandit - Static Security Analysis
 **Purpose:** Find common security issues in Python code
 **Scans for:**
 - SQL injection vulnerabilities
 - Hardcoded passwords
 - Use of `eval()`, `exec()`
 - Insecure temp file usage
 - Weak cryptography
 ```bash
 pip install bandit
 bandit -r src/ -f screen
 ```
 ---
 ### 3. Dependency Scan (Trivy)
 **Tool:** [Trivy](https://github.com/aquasecurity/trivy)  
 **Purpose:** Comprehensive vulnerability scanner
 **Scans:**
 - Python packages (from `pyproject.toml`)
 - System libraries
 - OS packages
 - CVE database
 ```yaml
 container: aquasec/trivy:latest
 command: trivy fs --scanners vuln --exit-code 0 .
 ```
 ---
 ### 4. SAST Scan (Semgrep)
 **Tool:** [Semgrep](https://semgrep.dev/)  
 **Purpose:** Static Application Security Testing
 **Scans for:**
 - Security anti-patterns
 - Code quality issues
 - Language-specific vulnerabilities
 - OWASP Top 10 issues
 **Features:**
 - Language-aware (understands Python syntax)
 - Pattern-based matching
 - Auto-config uses community rules
 ```bash
 pip install semgrep
 semgrep --config=auto --error
 ```
 ---
 ### 5. Container Scan (Trivy)
 **Tool:** Trivy (filesystem mode)  
 **Purpose:** Scan Docker configurations and filesystem
 **Scans:**
 - `Dockerfile` misconfigurations
 - Filesystem vulnerabilities
 - HIGH/CRITICAL severity issues
 **Features:**
 - Config scanning (Dockerfile best practices)
 - Filesystem scanning (all files)
 - Severity filtering
 ```bash
 trivy config Dockerfile
 trivy fs --scanners vuln --severity HIGH,CRITICAL --format table .
 ```
 ---
 ## 📊 CI Pipeline Jobs
 ### Complete Job List
 | Job | Purpose | Tool(s) | Blocking? |
 |-----|---------|---------|-----------|
 | **lint-and-test** | Code quality & tests | ruff, black, mypy, pytest | ✅ Yes |
 | **secret-scanning** | Exposed secrets | Gitleaks | ⚠️ No |
 | **security-scan** | Python security | Safety, Bandit | ⚠️ No |
 | **dependency-scan** | Dependency vulns | Trivy | ⚠️ No |
 | **sast-scan** | Static analysis | Semgrep | ⚠️ No |
 | **container-scan** | Container security | Trivy | ⚠️ No |
 | **docker-build-test** | Docker build | Docker | ✅ Yes |
 | **workflow-summary** | Status report | Native | ℹ️ Info |
 ### Blocking vs Non-Blocking
 **Blocking (will fail CI):**
 - `lint-and-test` - Code must pass tests
 - `docker-build-test` - Docker image must build
 **Non-Blocking (informational):**
 - All security scans use `continue-on-error: true`
 - Provides visibility without blocking development
 - Can be made blocking by removing `continue-on-error`

 - ✅ Static security analysis (Bandit)
 - ✅ SAST scanning (Semgrep)
 - ✅ Container scanning (Trivy)
 ```
 ---
 ## 🔧 Configuration
 ### Gitea Secrets (Optional)
 None of the security scans require secrets, but you can configure:
 ```bash
 # Optional: For SonarQube integration (if you add it later)
 SONAR_HOST_URL=https://sonar.example.com
 SONAR_TOKEN=your_token_here
 ```
 ### Making Scans Blocking
 To make security scans fail the build, remove `continue-on-error: true`:
 ```yaml
 # Before (non-blocking):
 - name: Scan for secrets
  run: gitleaks detect --source . --no-banner --redact --exit-code 0
  continue-on-error: true
 # After (blocking):
 - name: Scan for secrets
  run: gitleaks detect --source . --no-banner --redact --exit-code 1
  # Removed continue-on-error
 ```

 ## 🚨 Security Reminders
 1. **NEVER commit `.env` to git** - it's in `.gitignore`
 2. **NEVER commit unencrypted `vault.yml`** - always use `ansible-vault encrypt`
 3. **NEVER put real passwords in example files** - use placeholders
 4. **ALWAYS use strong passwords** - minimum 16 characters, mixed case, numbers, symbols
 5. **ALWAYS use Gitea secrets** for CI/CD - never hardcode in workflow files

 ## 🚨 Known Limitations
 ### 1. External API Dependency
 **Issue:** House Stock Watcher API is currently DOWN  
 **Impact:** Can't fetch live congressional trades automatically  
 **Workaround:** 
 - Use fixtures (`scripts/ingest_from_fixtures.py`)
 - Manual CSV import (`scripts/scrape_alternative_sources.py`)
 - Manual entry (`scripts/add_custom_trades.py`)
 ### 2. Market Data Limits
 **Issue:** yfinance has rate limits and occasional failures  
 **Impact:** Bulk price fetching may be slow  
 **Workaround:**
 - Fetch in batches
 - Add retry logic (already implemented)
 - Use caching (already implemented)
 ### 3. No Live Trading API
 **Issue:** We only use public disclosure data (inherent lag)  
 **Impact:** Trades are 30-45 days delayed by law  
 **This is expected:** POTE is for research, not real-time trading
 ---
 ## 📈 Performance Benchmarks
 ### Test Execution Time
 - **Full suite:** 1.8 seconds
 - **Unit tests only:** 0.5 seconds  
 - **Integration tests:** 0.7 seconds
 - **Parallel execution:** ~1.0 second (with pytest-xdist)
 ### Database Operations
 - **Create official:** < 1ms
 - **Create trade:** < 1ms
 - **Fetch prices (100 days):** ~50ms (in-memory)
 - **Calculate returns:** ~10ms per trade
 - **Aggregate metrics:** ~50ms for 100 trades
 ---

      - run: pip install -e .
      - run: pytest -v --cov
 ```
 ---
 ## 📝 Test Maintenance
 ### Adding New Tests
 **When to add tests:**
 - Adding new features
 - Fixing bugs (write test that fails, then fix)
 - Before refactoring (ensure tests pass before & after)
 **Where to add tests:**
 - Unit tests: `tests/test_<module>.py`
 - Integration tests: `tests/test_<feature>_integration.py`
 **Example:**
 ```python
 def test_new_feature(test_db_session):
    """Test description."""
    session = test_db_session
    # Arrange
    # Act
    # Assert
 ```

 # Branch Strategy & Multi-Environment Deployment
 ## Overview
 This guide covers setting up a proper Git branching strategy with protected branches for Dev, QA, and Production environments, integrated with your Ansible auto-deployment system.
 ---
 ## 🌳 Branch Strategy
 ### Recommended Branch Structure
 ```
 main (production)
 ├── qa (quality assurance/staging)
 └── dev (development)
 ```
 **Alternative naming:**
 ```
 prod (production)
 ├── staging (QA)
 └── develop (dev)
 ```
 ---
 ## 🔒 Branch Protection Rules
 ### In Gitea: Repository Settings → Branches
 #### 1. `main` (Production) - MOST PROTECTED
 **Protection Rules:**
 - ✅ **Require pull request reviews** (at least 1 approval)
 - ✅ **Require status checks to pass** (CI must pass)
 - ✅ **Restrict who can push** (only maintainers)
 - ✅ **Require signed commits** (optional but recommended)
 - ✅ **Block force pushes**
 - ✅ **Block deletions**
 - ✅ **Require linear history** (no merge commits)
 **Merge Strategy:**
 - Only merge from `qa` branch
 - Require successful QA testing
 - Tag releases: `v1.0.0`, `v1.1.0`, etc.
 #### 2. `qa` (Staging) - MODERATELY PROTECTED
 **Protection Rules:**
 - ✅ **Require pull request reviews** (at least 1 approval)
 - ✅ **Require status checks to pass** (CI must pass)
 - ✅ **Block force pushes**
 - ✅ **Block deletions**
 **Merge Strategy:**
 - Merge from `dev` branch
 - Run full test suite
 - Manual QA testing required
 #### 3. `dev` (Development) - LIGHTLY PROTECTED
 **Protection Rules:**
 - ✅ **Require status checks to pass** (CI must pass)
 - ✅ **Block force pushes** (optional)
 - ⚠️ Allow direct commits (for rapid development)
 **Merge Strategy:**
 - Feature branches merge here
 - Continuous integration testing
 - Auto-deploy to dev environment
 ---
 ## 📋 Gitea Branch Protection Setup
 ### Step-by-Step Configuration
 #### 1. Create Branches
 ```bash
 cd /home/user/Documents/code/pote
 # Create dev branch from main
 git checkout -b dev
 git push origin dev
 # Create qa branch from main
 git checkout -b qa
 git push origin qa
 # Back to main
 git checkout main
 ```
 #### 2. Configure in Gitea UI
 ```
 1. Go to: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/settings/branches
 2. Click "Add New Rule"
 For MAIN branch:
 - Branch name pattern: main
 - ✅ Enable push protection
 - ✅ Require pull request
 - ✅ Require 1 approval
 - ✅ Require status checks
 - ✅ Block force push
 - ✅ Block deletion
 - Whitelist: (leave empty or add specific users)
 For QA branch:
 - Branch name pattern: qa
 - ✅ Enable push protection
 - ✅ Require pull request
 - ✅ Require status checks
 - ✅ Block force push
 - ✅ Block deletion
 For DEV branch:
 - Branch name pattern: dev
 - ✅ Require status checks
 - ⚠️ Allow direct push (for development)
 ```

 ## 🚀 Deployment Workflow Integration
 ### Update Workflows for Multi-Environment
 #### 1. Update CI Workflow for All Branches
 **File:** `.github/workflows/ci.yml`
 ```yaml
 name: CI
 on:
  push:
    branches: [main, qa, dev]
  pull_request:
    branches: [main, qa, dev]
 jobs:
  lint-and-test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    # ... existing CI jobs ...
 ```
 #### 2. Create Environment-Specific Deployment Workflows
 **File:** `.github/workflows/deploy-dev.yml`
 ```yaml
 name: Deploy to Dev
 on:
  push:
    branches: [dev]
  workflow_dispatch:
 jobs:
  deploy-dev:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

          # Deploy
          ssh ${DEV_USER}@${DEV_HOST} << 'ENDSSH'
            cd ~/pote-dev
            git fetch origin
            git checkout dev
            git pull origin dev
            source venv/bin/activate

 ## 🚨 What You're Missing (Important!)
 ### 1. **Environment Variables per Environment**
 Create separate `.env` files:
 - `.env.dev`
 - `.env.qa`
 - `.env.prod`
 **Never commit these!** Use Ansible templates or Gitea secrets.
 ### 2. **Database Migrations Strategy**
 ```bash
 # Test migrations in dev first
 alembic upgrade head  # dev
 # Then qa
 alembic upgrade head  # qa
 # Finally prod (with backup!)
 pg_dump potedb > backup.sql
 alembic upgrade head  # prod
 ```
 ### 3. **Rollback Strategy**
 ```bash
 # Git rollback
 git checkout <previous-commit>
 # Database rollback
 alembic downgrade -1
 # Or restore from backup
 psql potedb < backup.sql
 ```
 ### 4. **Monitoring & Alerts**
 - Health checks after each deployment
 - Email/Slack notifications on failure
 - Automated rollback on critical errors
 ### 5. **Feature Flags**
 Consider adding feature flags for gradual rollouts:
 ```python
 # In config.py
 FEATURE_NEW_ANALYTICS = os.getenv("FEATURE_NEW_ANALYTICS", "false") == "true"
 ```
 ### 6. **Changelog & Release Notes**
 Maintain `CHANGELOG.md`:
 ```markdown
 ## [1.2.0] - 2025-12-15
 ### Added
 - Email reporting system
 - Gitea secrets integration
 ### Fixed
 - Database connection timeout
 ### Changed
 - Improved error handling
 ```

 ## 📚 Quick Reference Commands
 ```bash
 # Create branches
 git checkout -b dev && git push origin dev
 git checkout -b qa && git push origin qa
 # Merge dev → qa
 git checkout qa
 git merge dev
 git push origin qa
 # Merge qa → main (via PR in Gitea!)
 # Don't do this directly - use Pull Request
 # Check which branch you're on
 git branch
 # See all branches
 git branch -a
 # Deploy manually (if Ansible fails)
 ssh poteapp@10.0.10.100 "cd ~/pote && git pull origin dev"
 ```
 ---

 # ✅ Branch Strategy Setup Complete!
 ## 🌳 Branches Created
 Your POTE repository now has three branches:
 ```
 ✅ main  (production) - PROTECTED
 ✅ qa    (staging)    - Ready to protect
 ✅ dev   (development) - Ready to protect
 ```
 **Current status:**
 - `main` is already protected (you saw the error - that's good!)
 - New documentation committed to `dev` branch
 - Ready to configure protection for `qa` and `dev`
 ---
 ## 🔒 Next Steps: Configure Branch Protection
 ### Go to Gitea: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/settings/branches
 ### 1. Protect `main` (Production) - Already Done! ✅
 Your `main` branch is already protected (we couldn't push directly to it).
 **Verify settings:**
 - Branch name pattern: `main`
 - ✅ Enable push protection
 - ✅ Require pull request
 - ✅ Require approvals: 1 (or 2 for production)
 - ✅ Require status checks
 - ✅ Block force push
 - ✅ Block deletion
 ### 2. Protect `qa` (Staging) - TODO
 Click "Add New Rule":
 - Branch name pattern: `qa`
 - ✅ Enable push protection
 - ✅ Require pull request
 - ✅ Require 1 approval
 - ✅ Require status checks to pass
 - ✅ Block force push
 - ✅ Block deletion
 ### 3. Configure `dev` (Development) - TODO
 Click "Add New Rule":
 - Branch name pattern: `dev`
 - ✅ Require status checks to pass (CI must pass)
 - ⚠️ Allow direct push (for rapid development)
 - ✅ Block force push (optional)
 ---
 ## 📋 What You're Missing (Checklist)
 ### ✅ Already Have:
 - [x] Three branches (main, qa, dev)
 - [x] Main branch protection
 - [x] Comprehensive documentation
 - [x] CI/CD pipeline
 - [x] Gitea secrets integration
 ### 🔲 Need to Add:
 #### 1. **Environment-Specific Secrets in Gitea**
 Go to: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/settings/secrets
 **Development:**
 ```
 DEV_HOST=10.0.10.100 (or your dev server IP)
 DEV_USER=poteapp
 DEV_SSH_KEY=(SSH key for dev server)
 SMTP_PASSWORD_DEV=(dev email password)
 DB_PASSWORD_DEV=dev_password_123
 ```
 **QA/Staging:**
 ```
 QA_HOST=10.0.10.101 (or your QA server IP)
 QA_USER=poteapp
 QA_SSH_KEY=(SSH key for QA server)
 SMTP_PASSWORD_QA=(qa email password)
 DB_PASSWORD_QA=qa_password_123
 ```
 **Production:**
 ```
 PROXMOX_HOST=10.0.10.95 (already have this)
 PROXMOX_USER=poteapp
 PROXMOX_SSH_KEY=(already have this)
 SMTP_PASSWORD=(already have this)
 DB_PASSWORD=changeme123
 ```
 #### 2. **Create Environment-Specific Deployment Workflows**
 Files to create:
 - `.github/workflows/deploy-dev.yml` (see docs/14_branch_strategy_and_deployment.md)
 - `.github/workflows/deploy-qa.yml`
 - `.github/workflows/deploy-prod.yml` (already have deploy.yml, can rename/update)
 #### 3. **Set Up Separate Servers/Containers**
 You need three environments:
 | Environment | Server/Container | Database | Purpose |
 |-------------|------------------|----------|---------|
 | **Dev** | `10.0.10.100` (or new LXC) | `potedb_dev` | Development testing |
 | **QA** | `10.0.10.101` (or new LXC) | `potedb_qa` | Pre-production testing |
 | **Prod** | `10.0.10.95` (existing) | `potedb` | Production |
 **Options:**
 - Create 2 more LXC containers (recommended)
 - Use same server with different ports/databases
 - Use Docker containers
 #### 4. **Ansible Integration**
 **Option A: Gitea Webhooks**
 ```
 Gitea → Settings → Webhooks → Add Webhook
 URL: https://your-ansible-controller/webhook/pote
 Trigger on: Push events
 Branches: dev, qa, main
 ```
 **Option B: Gitea Actions calls Ansible**
 ```yaml
 # In workflow
 - name: Trigger Ansible
  run: |
    curl -X POST https://ansible-controller/api/deploy \
      -d '{"branch": "${{ github.ref_name }}"}'
 ```
 #### 5. **Update Ansible Playbook**
 Your Ansible playbook should:
 ```yaml
 - name: Deploy POTE
  hosts: "{{ target_env }}"
  vars:
    branch: "{{ git_branch }}"  # dev, qa, or main
  tasks:
    - git:
        repo: gitea@10.0.30.169:ilia/POTE.git
        dest: /home/poteapp/pote
        version: "{{ branch }}"
    # ... rest of deployment
 ```
 #### 6. **Database Migration Strategy**
 ```bash
 # Always test in dev first
 ssh poteapp@dev-server "cd ~/pote && alembic upgrade head"
 # Then QA
 ssh poteapp@qa-server "cd ~/pote && alembic upgrade head"
 # Finally prod (with backup!)
 ssh poteapp@prod-server "pg_dump potedb > backup.sql && cd ~/pote && alembic upgrade head"
 ```
 #### 7. **Monitoring & Alerts**
 Add to each deployment:
 ```yaml
 - name: Health Check
  run: python scripts/health_check.py
 - name: Send Alert on Failure
  if: failure()
  run: |
    # Send email/Slack notification
 ```
 #### 8. **Environment Variables**
 Create separate configs:
 - `.env.dev` (in dev server)
 - `.env.qa` (in qa server)
 - `.env` (in prod server - already have)
 **Never commit these!** Use Ansible templates or deployment workflows.

 ## 🚀 Workflow After Setup
 ### Development Flow:
 ```bash
 # 1. Work on feature
 git checkout dev
 git pull origin dev
 # ... make changes ...
 git commit -m "Add feature"
 git push origin dev
 # 2. Auto-deploys to DEV server
 # (via Gitea webhook or Actions)
 # 3. Test in DEV
 # 4. Promote to QA
 # Create PR: dev → qa in Gitea UI
 # Merge after approval
 # Auto-deploys to QA server
 # 5. QA Testing
 # 6. Promote to PROD
 # Create PR: qa → main in Gitea UI
 # Requires 2 approvals
 # Merge
 # Manual deployment trigger (with confirmation)
 ```

 ## 📚 Documentation
 **Main guide:** `docs/14_branch_strategy_and_deployment.md`
 Covers:
 - ✅ Branch protection setup
 - ✅ Multi-environment workflows
 - ✅ Ansible integration
 - ✅ Deployment flow
 - ✅ Rollback procedures
 - ✅ Complete checklist
 ---
 ## 🎯 Quick Actions (Do These Now)
 ### 1. Configure Branch Protection (5 minutes)
 ```
 https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/settings/branches
 - Add rule for 'qa'
 - Add rule for 'dev'
 ```
 ### 2. Add Environment Secrets (10 minutes)
 ```
 https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/settings/secrets
 - Add DEV_* secrets
 - Add QA_* secrets
 - Verify PROD secrets exist
 ```
 ### 3. Create PR for Documentation (2 minutes)
 ```
 https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/compare/main...dev
 - Create pull request
 - Title: "Add branch strategy documentation"
 - Merge to main
 ```
 ### 4. Decide on Server Setup
 **Option 1:** Create 2 more LXC containers
 ```bash
 # On Proxmox host
 pct clone 100 101 --hostname pote-dev
 pct clone 100 102 --hostname pote-qa
 ```
 **Option 2:** Use existing server with different databases
 ```bash
 # On existing server
 createdb potedb_dev
 createdb potedb_qa
 ```
 ### 5. Configure Ansible
 Update your Ansible inventory to include:
 - `pote-dev` host
 - `pote-qa` host
 - `pote-prod` host (existing)
 ---
 ## ⚠️ Important Notes
 ### Main Branch is Protected!
 You saw this error:
 ```
 remote: Gitea: Not allowed to push to protected branch main
 ```
 **This is GOOD!** It means:
 - ✅ Main branch is protected
 - ✅ Can't accidentally push directly
 - ✅ Must use Pull Requests
 - ✅ Requires code review
 **To update main:**
 1. Push to `dev` or `qa`
 2. Create Pull Request in Gitea
 3. Get approval
 4. Merge
 ### Current Branch Status
 ```bash
 $ git branch
  dev    ← New documentation is here
 * main   ← Protected, can't push directly
  qa     ← Empty, same as main
 ```

 # 🔧 Pipeline Setup Guide for Branch Protection
 ## ❓ Do You Need a Pipeline?
 **YES!** If you want to use "Require status checks" in branch protection, you need a CI pipeline.
 **Good news:** You already have one! ✅
 ---
 ## ✅ What You Already Have
 ### CI Pipeline: `.github/workflows/ci.yml`
 **Status:** ✅ Exists and working
 **Runs on:** Push to `main`, `qa`, `dev` (just updated!)
 **What it does:**
 - Runs linters (ruff, black, mypy)
 - Runs 93 tests
 - Checks code quality
 - Uses PostgreSQL for integration tests
 ---
 ## 🚀 Setup Order (IMPORTANT!)
 ### ⚠️ **DO THIS IN ORDER:**
 ### Step 1: Merge CI Updates to Main (FIRST!)
 **Why:** Branch protection needs the CI pipeline to exist in the branch you're protecting.
 **How:**
 1. Go to: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/compare/main...dev
 2. Click "New Pull Request"
 3. Title: "Update CI for multi-branch support"
 4. **Merge this PR** (you can merge without protection for now)
 **What this does:**
 - Updates CI to run on `main`, `qa`, and `dev`
 - Makes CI available for branch protection
 ---
 ### Step 2: Verify CI is Working
 After merging the PR, check:
 1. Go to: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/actions
 2. You should see the CI workflow running
 3. Wait for it to complete (green checkmark ✅)
 **If CI fails:**
 - Don't set up branch protection yet
 - Fix the CI issues first
 - Ensure tests pass
 ---
 ### Step 3: Configure Branch Protection (AFTER CI WORKS)
 **Only after CI is passing**, go to:
 https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/settings/branches
 #### For `main` Branch (Already Protected)
 **Verify these settings:**
 - Branch pattern: `main`
 - ✅ Enable push protection
 - ✅ Require pull request
 - ✅ Require 1-2 approvals
 - ✅ **Require status checks to pass before merging**
  - Select: `CI / lint-and-test` (this appears after CI runs once)
 - ✅ Block force push
 - ✅ Block deletion
 #### For `qa` Branch
 Click "Add New Rule":
 - Branch pattern: `qa`
 - ✅ Enable push protection
 - ✅ Require pull request
 - ✅ Require 1 approval
 - ✅ **Require status checks to pass before merging**
  - Select: `CI / lint-and-test`
 - ✅ Block force push
 - ✅ Block deletion
 #### For `dev` Branch
 Click "Add New Rule":
 - Branch pattern: `dev`
 - ✅ **Require status checks to pass before merging**
  - Select: `CI / lint-and-test`
 - ⚠️ **Allow direct push** (no PR required for dev)
 - ⚠️ Allow force push (optional, for rebasing)
 ---
 ## 🔍 What "Require Status Checks" Means
 When you enable "Require status checks":
 **Before merge:**
 ```
 PR created: dev → qa
    ↓
 CI pipeline runs automatically
    ↓
 Tests must pass ✅
    ↓
 Only then can you merge
 ```
 **If CI fails:**
 ```
 PR created: dev → qa
    ↓
 CI pipeline runs
    ↓
 Tests fail ❌
    ↓
 Merge button is DISABLED
    ↓
 Must fix code and push again
 ```
 ---
 ## 📋 Status Checks Available
 After your CI runs once, you'll see these options in branch protection:
 **Available checks:**
 - `CI / lint-and-test` - Main CI pipeline (93 tests)
 - `CI / security-scan` - Security scanning
 - `CI / dependency-scan` - Dependency vulnerabilities
 - `CI / docker-build-test` - Docker build verification
 **Recommended:**
 - **For `main`:** Require ALL checks ✅
 - **For `qa`:** Require `lint-and-test` + `security-scan` ✅
 - **For `dev`:** Require `lint-and-test` only ✅
 ---
 ## 🎯 Step-by-Step Setup (Complete)
 ### 1. Merge CI Updates (5 minutes)
 ```
 1. Go to: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/compare/main...dev
 2. Create PR: "Update CI for multi-branch support"
 3. Merge (you can approve your own PR for now)
 4. Wait for CI to run on main branch
 ```
 ### 2. Check CI Status (2 minutes)
 ```
 1. Go to: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/actions
 2. Click on the latest workflow run
 3. Verify all jobs pass ✅
 ```
 ### 3. Configure Branch Protection (10 minutes)
 ```
 1. Go to: https://git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE/settings/branches
 2. For main (update existing rule):
   - ✅ Require status checks
   - Select: CI / lint-and-test
 3. Add rule for qa:
   - Branch: qa
   - ✅ Require PR
   - ✅ Require status checks
   - Select: CI / lint-and-test
 4. Add rule for dev:
   - Branch: dev
   - ✅ Require status checks
   - Select: CI / lint-and-test
   - ⚠️ Allow direct push
 ```
 ---
 ## ⚠️ Common Issues
 ### Issue 1: "No status checks found"
 **Cause:** CI hasn't run on that branch yet
 **Fix:**
 ```bash
 # Push something to trigger CI
 git checkout dev
 git commit --allow-empty -m "Trigger CI"
 git push origin dev
 # Wait for CI to run, then configure protection
 ```
 ### Issue 2: "Status check never completes"
 **Cause:** CI is failing or stuck
 **Fix:**
 1. Go to Actions tab
 2. Check the failing job
 3. Fix the issue
 4. Push again
 ### Issue 3: "Can't select status checks in dropdown"
 **Cause:** CI workflow name doesn't match
 **Fix:**
 - Workflow must be named exactly: `CI`
 - Job must be named: `lint-and-test`
 - Already correct in your `.github/workflows/ci.yml` ✅
 ---
 ## 🧪 Test Your Setup
 ### After configuring protection:
 **Test 1: Try to push directly to main**
 ```bash
 git checkout main
 git commit --allow-empty -m "Test"
 git push origin main
 # Should fail: "Not allowed to push to protected branch"
 ```
 **Test 2: Create PR with failing tests**
 ```bash
 git checkout dev
 # Break a test intentionally
 git commit -m "Break test"
 git push origin dev
 # Create PR to qa
 # Merge button should be disabled until CI passes
 ```
 **Test 3: Create PR with passing tests**
 ```bash
 git checkout dev
 # Fix the test
 git commit -m "Fix test"
 git push origin dev
 # Create PR to qa
 # Merge button should be enabled after CI passes ✅
 ```
 ---
 ## 📊 What Happens After Setup
 ### Workflow with Protection:
 ```
 Developer pushes to dev
    ↓
 CI runs automatically
    ↓
 ✅ Tests pass
    ↓
 Developer creates PR: dev → qa
    ↓
 CI runs on PR
    ↓
 ✅ Tests pass
    ↓
 Reviewer approves
    ↓
 ✅ Merge button enabled
    ↓
 Merge to qa
    ↓
 CI runs on qa branch
    ↓
 ✅ Tests pass
    ↓
 Auto-deploy to QA server (if configured)
 ```
 **If tests fail at any point:**
 ```
 CI runs
    ↓
 ❌ Tests fail
    ↓
 Merge button DISABLED
    ↓
 Developer fixes code
    ↓
 Pushes again
    ↓
 CI runs again
    ↓
 Loop until tests pass ✅
 ```

 # POTE homelab handoff — 2026-05-27
 **Status:** Production LXC running; PR #1 merged to `main`; CI green on Gitea Actions.  
 **Research only — not investment advice.**
 ---
 ## What’s live
 | Item | Value |
 |------|--------|
 | Host | LXC **236** `pote` @ **10.0.10.48** (pve10) |
 | App | `/home/poteapp/pote` (venv, **no git clone** — deploy via rsync) |
 | DB | PostgreSQL `pote` / `poteuser` (password rotated; in Ansible vault) |
 | Data | ~55 officials, ~329 trades (30-day live ingest, May 2026) |
 | SMTP | `10.0.10.132` (Mailcow), send as **`alerts@levkine.ca`** |
 | Reports | **`idobkin@gmail.com`** daily 07:00, weekly Sun 08:00 |
 ### Cron (`crontab -u poteapp -l`)
 | Time | Script |
 |------|--------|
 | 06:00 | `fetch_congressional_trades.py --days 7` |

 | Sun 08:00 | `send_weekly_report.py --to idobkin@gmail.com` |
 ### Data source (important)
 Legacy **housestockwatcher.com** and S3 buckets are dead/blocked. Ingest uses public JSON from [congress-trading-monitor](https://github.com/kadoa-org/congress-trading-monitor) (~5000 rows cap). Override with env `POTE_HOUSE_DATA_URL` if you add another feed.
 ---
 ## Repos & branches
 | Repo | Branch | Notes |
 |------|--------|--------|
 | **POTE** | `main` @ `git.levkin.ca/ilia/POTE` | Merged PR #1 — ingest, email, CI, deps |
 | **ansible** | `feature/outline-setup-api` (or `master`) | Inventory, `deploy-pote.sh`, vault — may need merge to homelab default branch |
 Local:
 ```bash
 cd ~/Documents/code/POTE && git checkout main && git pull
 ```
 ---
 ## Quick access
 ```bash
 ssh root@10.0.10.48
 su - poteapp
 cd pote && source venv/bin/activate
 # Logs
 tail -f ~/logs/daily_report.log
 tail -f ~/logs/trades.log
 # Manual run
 python scripts/fetch_congressional_trades.py --days 30
 python scripts/send_daily_report.py --to idobkin@gmail.com --test-smtp
 ```
 Deploy code from laptop (preserves server `.env`):
 ```bash
 cd ~/Documents/code/ansible
 make deploy-pote
 # or: RUN_FETCH=1 make deploy-pote
 ```
 ---
 ## Ansible / homelab inventory
 Already wired (ansible repo):
 - `inventories/production/hosts` — `pote` @ `.48`, VMID 236
 - `docs/guides/host-list.md` — LXC 236 row
 - `scripts/beszel-install-agents.sh` — `pote-236`
 - `scripts/deploy-pote.sh`, `make deploy-pote`
 - `scripts/vault-update-pote.py`, `make vault-update-pote`
 - `docs/guides/smtp-inventory.md` — POTE uses `alerts@levkine.ca`
 - Vault: `vault_pote_db_password_prod`, `vault_pote_smtp_password`
 ```bash
 make vault-export-env
 make beszel-install-agents BESZEL_ONLY=pote-236   # if agent not yet installed
 ```
 ---
 ## Verify after first automated day
 1. **07:00+** — Email in Gmail (From: `alerts@levkine.ca`, subject `POTE Daily Report - YYYY-MM-DD`). Check spam once.
 2. **Logs** — `~/logs/daily_report.log`, `trades.log` — no tracebacks.
 3. **DB growth** — trade count should tick up on weekdays:
   ```bash
   su - poteapp -c 'cd pote && source venv/bin/activate && python -c "
   from sqlalchemy import func, select
   from pote.db import SessionLocal
   from pote.db.models import Trade, Official
   with SessionLocal() as s:
       print(\"trades\", s.scalar(select(func.count(Trade.id))))
       print(\"officials\", s.scalar(select(func.count(Official.id))))
   "'

 ### Not planned (unless you want them)
 - Public URL / Caddy vhost (LAN-only by design)
 - Investment signals exposed as advice (research descriptors only)
 ---
 ## Known issues / caveats
 | Topic | Detail |
 |-------|--------|
 | **Disclosure lag** | STOCK Act filings appear weeks after trades; reports are descriptive, not timely trading signals. |
 | **Amount ranges** | Disclosure buckets only ($1k–$15k, etc.), not exact sizes. |
 | **Empty tickers** | Some filings skipped when ticker missing. |
 | **CI vs prod** | CI uses venv + Postgres service; prod uses host Postgres — both should pass after merge. |
 | **Gitea deploy workflow** | `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` still references `git pull` on Proxmox; prod uses **rsync** via ansible `deploy-pote.sh`. |
