Production QA reported "Submit failed 413" on /generation and plain
"Upload failed" (no detail) on resource upload. Root cause is the
outer reverse-proxy nginx on the VPS — still on default
`client_max_body_size 1m` — rejecting requests before they reach
Odoo. The inner docker-nginx and Odoo limits were already raised in
earlier commits; only the VPS proxy was left unpatched.
UI side
- Add `describeApiError(err, fallback, context)` helper in
lib/api-client.ts. Maps common HTTP codes to human-readable,
actionable toast descriptions (413 → "ask ops to raise nginx
client_max_body_size", 504 → "server took too long, retry", 502
→ "Odoo is restarting", 401 → "sign in again", 4xx/5xx → server
error body + status code).
- Use it in GenerationPage submit, ResourceManager upload,
TeacherLibrary upload, CustomExamCreate save/publish. Replaces
four slightly-different ad-hoc mappings with one source of truth.
Deploy side
- Add deploy/nginx-vps.conf.example: full TLS reverse-proxy template
with the body/timeout knobs that must match Odoo's limit_request
(128 MB) and limit_time_real (900 s).
- Add docs/DEPLOY_413_504_FIX.md: step-by-step remediation guide for
the team lead covering the 3 layers that can block large bodies
(outer nginx, Cloudflare, Odoo worker) and how to verify each.

E2E QA surfaced a silent-drop bug in the exam-schedule endpoint: the
frontend's student picker sends `op.student.id` values (that's what
/api/students returns), but `encoach.exam.schedule.student_ids` is a
Many2many → res.users. The controller was writing the op.student id
straight through, so schedules linked to whichever res.users row
happened to share that integer id (OdooBot, other staff, etc.) — the
target student got 0 assignments and never saw the exam.
- exam_schedules.py: add `_resolve_student_user_ids` and use it in the
create and update endpoints. Falls back to treating unmatched ids as
direct res.users ids for back-office callers.
- AssignmentsPage.tsx: add a search input + larger list to the
Individual Students picker; long lists were leaving Sarah unreachable
inside the inner scroll container during QA.

Addresses the QA notes on the end-to-end approval flow. Highlights:
Backend
- encoach_ai/generation_submit: create encoach.approval.request on submit so
submitted exams actually reach the approver queue (previously only the
workflow id was stored on the exam, leaving approvers with an empty inbox).
Initial exam status flips to pending_approval instead of draft.
- encoach_exam_template/approval_workflows:
* /api/approval-users filters out students (user_type='student',
op_student_id set, share=True) so the approver dropdown only lists staff.
* _ser_request enriches requests with target_name / target_status and the
current stage approver for UI badges.
* list_requests supports mine=1 / requester=1 so approvers only see queue
items awaiting their action.
* approve_request / reject_request now transition the underlying
encoach.exam.custom to published / rejected on final approval.
- encoach.exam.custom.status: add pending_approval and rejected states to
match the approval workflow transitions.
Frontend UX
- GenerationPage: rubric field shows "Auto-graded — no rubric" for Listening
and Reading (rubrics only apply to Writing / Speaking). Divider dropdowns
now carry explicit help text explaining None / Line / Space / Page Break
and where to write prompts. Selecting an official exam structure
auto-populates the required tasks/sections/parts, the delete button is
hidden for essential tasks, and submit is blocked if the user dropped
below the structure's required count.
- RubricsPage: "Add Criterion" is now a dropdown with IELTS-specific
presets (Task Achievement, Coherence & Cohesion, Fluency & Coherence, …)
keyed off the selected skill, plus a "Custom (blank row)" fallback.
- AdminCourses: added tooltips and helper copy clarifying Difficulty vs
CEFR Level in the Create Course dialog.
- CustomExamCreate: validate the whole form before Save/Publish, surface
backend error messages (413/504/401) instead of a generic toast, read the
exam id from the correct response field, and avoid marking Publish as
failed when only the optional Save-as-Template step errors.
- ResourceManager / TeacherLibrary: upload toast now shows a concrete
reason (HTTP 413 / 504 / 401) instead of a generic "Upload failed".
Config (504 / 413 / resource upload fixes)
- odoo.conf + odoo-docker.conf: raise limit_time_cpu to 600s,
limit_time_real to 900s, limit_request to 128 MB, and memory caps so
/api/exam/generation/submit and multipart resource uploads stop hitting
504 / 413 during QA.
- frontend/Dockerfile (nginx): add client_max_body_size 128m, bump
proxy_read_timeout / proxy_send_timeout to 900s, and disable request
buffering so large AI/resource payloads stream through the proxy.

Frontend
- i18n: install tailwindcss-rtl, Cairo font, RTL-aware direction in index.css.
- Language toggle: localize aria-label / menu label, persist choice, update
document dir synchronously.
- Sidebar: add `side` prop so the drawer pins to the right in RTL; wire up
AdminLmsLayout, RoleLayout (student/teacher) and AppSidebar to pass
side = i18n.dir() === 'rtl' ? 'right' : 'left'.
- AdminLmsLayout: convert every nav item from hard-coded title to titleKey,
translate group labels (incl. the collapsible Training), breadcrumbs,
user menu (Profile / Settings / Logout), help button and toggle aria
labels; replace physical mr-/right- utilities with logical me-/end-.
- AI components (AiTipBanner, AiInsightsPanel, AiAlertBanner, AiSearchBar,
AiAssistantDrawer): apply dir="auto" at the container level, localize
titles, loading / error / empty states.
- Dashboards (admin / student / teacher): wrap numeric values in <bdi>,
localize dates via ar-EG, fix flex direction for KPI and assignment cards.
- UI primitives (breadcrumb, calendar, carousel, dropdown-menu, menubar,
context-menu, pagination, sidebar): flip chevrons in RTL via a scoped
CSS rule, swap pl-/pr-/ml-/mr- for ps-/pe-/ms-/me-.
- Add logical-direction helpers and bidirectional isolation classes.
Locales
- Expand en.ts and ar.ts with full `nav`, `sidebarGroup`, `breadcrumb`,
`userMenu`, `chrome`, `ai`, and dashboard key sets; keep key parity.
API client
- `api-client.ts` reads the active language from localStorage/i18n and sends
`Accept-Language` on every request so the backend can localize AI output.
Backend (encoach_ai)
- openai_service: add _LANGUAGE_NAMES, normalize_language, language-aware
system prompt injection for every OpenAI call.
- coach_service + controllers (coach_controller, ai_controller): thread
the requested language from headers / user locale down to OpenAIService.
- ai_feedback: fix latent registry error by pointing course_id at op.course
instead of the non-existent encoach.course.
Other
- .gitignore: ignore runtime odoo logs and local caches.

Roadmap P0
- Ship /logo.svg fallback and rewire asset references (superseded later by
the project-manager PNG in a separate commit).
Roadmap P1
- Response envelope alignment ({items,total,page,size}) across services
and query hooks.
- Approval/ticket UX updates tied to the new backend rollback semantics.
Roadmap P2
- React.lazy + Vite manualChunks to split vendor-radix/charts/icons/forms
from the main bundle and cut initial JS.
- Fix the 181 tsc errors (PaginationParams class + per-service generics).
- Auto-refresh flow for JWT refresh tokens wired into api-client.ts.
Roadmap P3
- i18n: i18next + language detector, en/ar locales, RTL auto-switch,
LanguageToggle component in RoleLayout and AdminLmsLayout.
- GDPR: PrivacyCenter page for data export and right-to-erasure, backed
by gdpr.service.ts; logout via AuthContext after erasure.
- Human-in-the-loop exam review UI: admin ExamReviewQueue + ExamReviewDetail
pages, useExamReview hooks, exam-review.service.ts.
- AI quality loop: AIPromptEditor (versioning + render preview),
AIFeedbackButtons for students, AIFeedbackTriage admin page, dedicated
services, hooks, and types.
- Dark mode: ThemeProvider + ThemeToggle + chart color tokens.
- Accessibility: DialogDescription on every DialogContent; alert-dialog
and sheet updates.
- Retire dead pages: ExamPage marketing, Index, ProfilePage import.
- Playwright e2e scaffolding: playwright.config.ts + e2e/login.spec.ts
smoke tests, npm scripts test:e2e / test:e2e:install.
Made-with: Cursor
- Replace public/logo-icon.png with the approved EnCoach wordmark
(icon + "EnCoach" + tagline "Unlock your potential with AI powered platform").
- Login page shows the full branded logo at h-36 and drops the duplicate
text heading since the wordmark is now baked into the asset.
- Student/Teacher/Admin sidebars show a small rounded icon when collapsed
and the full wordmark at h-14 when expanded, removing the previous
duplicated "EnCoach" text span.
- og:image in index.html already points at /logo-icon.png so social cards
pick up the new branding automatically.

Wire the three admin Reports pages (/admin/student-performance,
/admin/stats-corporate, /admin/record) to a new
encoach_lms_api/controllers/reports.py that aggregates from
encoach.student.attempt.
* /api/reports/student-performance: per-student band averages + CEFR,
with entity / level / search filters.
* /api/reports/stats-corporate: by_module bar, N-month trend line,
CEFR distribution pie, entity comparison bar, threshold + entity
filters and meta.attempts_considered for UI.
* /api/reports/record: paginated attempt history with entity / user /
period filters, EX-### exam codes, duration derived from start/end.
* /api/reports/filters: shared picker returning only entities /
students that actually have attempts.
Frontend: new reports.service.ts, all three pages rewritten to hit
these endpoints; Recharts graphs now read live data, CSV export added
on Student Performance and Record.
Seeding: seed_reports.py completes any in_progress attempts and
backfills 6 months of historical attempts across 3 entities so the
trend / distribution / KPI panels have meaningful data. Idempotent.
Tests: test_reports_flows.py (25/25 PASS) covers shape, filters,
pagination. Regressions still green: Configuration 24/24, Support
29/29, Training 26/26. Browser-verified on localhost:8080 with admin
login — all 4 tabs in Stats Corporate render, Student Performance
shows real students + KPIs, Record shows 28 attempts with filter +
CSV export working.
Docs: new §20 in PROJECT_SUMMARY.md documenting scope, artifacts,
seeding, test results, and gotchas (encoach.exam.custom uses `title`
not `name`; encoach.entity requires `code`; in_progress attempts are
excluded from aggregates).

Audit of the admin Configuration section (FAQ Manager, Notification Rules,
Approval Config) surfaced three contract mismatches and one missing schema.
FAQ
* Backend `encoach.faq.category.audience` / `encoach.faq.item.audience`
rejected the `both` and `entity` values emitted by the FAQ Manager
UI. Widened the Selection so the UI's full vocabulary round-trips.
* FAQ item `video_url` was already accepted by the UI but silently
dropped by the controller; now persisted via a new `video_url`
field on `encoach.faq.item` and serialized on list/get responses.
Notification Rules
* Added `days_before`, `frequency`, `channel`, `entity_id` to
`encoach.notification.rule`. These are the exact fields the admin
form collects; prior to this change they were serialized into the
JSON body, ignored by the controller, and omitted from responses,
leaving the Active switch permanently off and the table columns
blank.
* Controller now translates `active` <-> `is_active` both ways so the
new frontend contract and legacy callers coexist. Missing required
fields return HTTP 400 instead of 500.
Approval Workflows
* The controller had been hand-rolling raw SQL against three tables
(`encoach_approval_workflow`, `_stage`, `_request`) that no Odoo
model declared, so the tables never existed. List() was guarded and
returned empty; create() would 500 with "relation does not exist".
* Introduced real ORM models in `encoach_exam_template/models/approval.py`
plus access rights, which auto-provision the tables on -u.
* Rewrote the controller to use ORM, added PATCH, and emitted both
`items` and `results` in the list envelope so the frontend's
PaginatedResponse reader and legacy callers both work. Step
payloads now carry `max_days`, `auto_escalate`, and
`notification_email` end to end.
* Frontend `approvalsService` and `ApprovalWorkflowConfig` updated to
send the full stage shape + `allow_bypass`, tolerate both envelope
keys, and validate at least one approver before submit.
Schema delta applied via `./run.sh -u encoach_exam_template,encoach_lms_api`.
Verified with new `test_config_flows.py`: 24/24 passing. Regression runs
on `test_support_flows.py` (29/29) and `test_training_flows.py` (26/26)
remain green.
