deckyvault/CHANGELOG.md

Changelog

All notable changes to DeckyVault will be documented in this file.

[2026.2.2] - 2026-05-27

Added

• Sign-up domain restriction for deckyvault.xyz: new account creation with @deckyvault.xyz email addresses is now blocked in production. This prevents unauthorized use of the brand domain. The restriction is lifted in development builds.
• Branded email placeholder: all auth forms (sign-up, login, forgot password) on web and mobile now use you@deckyvault.xyz as the default placeholder instead of the generic you@example.com

Changed

• Server-side domain enforcement ensures the @deckyvault.xyz block cannot be bypassed by direct API calls or social login flows
• Existing @deckyvault.xyz account holders can still log in, use password reset, and receive OTPs

Technical

• Added lib/auth/domain-block.ts shared domain validation helper
• Added Elysia middleware in lib/api/app.ts for server-side sign-up domain enforcement
• Added Zod .refine() on signupSchema for client-side domain validation

[2026.2.1] - 2026-05-25

Fixed

• Page title duplication on /games and /devices: titles now read "Games | DeckyVault" and "Devices | DeckyVault" instead of the duplicated "Games — DeckyVault | DeckyVault"
• Missing metadata on /compare and /profile: these pages now have unique <title> and <meta description> tags instead of reusing the homepage title
• Duplicate H1 on game detail pages: each game page now has a single <h1> heading
• Truncated meta descriptions on game pages: descriptions no longer cut off mid-sentence — truncation now respects word boundaries

Added

• Canonical URL tag on homepage — prevents duplicate-content indexing
• BreadcrumbList structured data on game detail, games listing, and devices listing pages — enables breadcrumb rich results in search
• Organization structured data on homepage — enhances brand visibility in search results
• AggregateRating structured data on game detail pages — enables star ratings in SERPs when Steam review scores are available
• Preconnect hints for external CDN origins (Steam, SteamGridDB, Cloudflare R2, Discord, Google) — improves page load performance

Changed

• Removed user-scalable=no from viewport meta tag — improves mobile accessibility compliance (WCAG 1.4.4)

Technical

• Added lib/utils/seo.ts with shared smartTruncate() and buildBreadcrumbList() utilities
• Added app/__tests__/metadata.test.ts integration test suite for page-level SEO metadata

[2026.2.0] - 2026-05-20

Added

• ProtonDB URL compatibility: /app/[steamid] permanently redirects to /game/[steamid] — replace protondb.com with deckyvault.xyz in any ProtonDB URL to land on the matching DeckyVault game page
• Human-readable share URLs: share button now copies clean URLs with numeric Steam App IDs for Steam games and title-based slugs for non-Steam games, instead of opaque UUIDs
• Auto-generated slugs for non-Steam games: new slug column on games table, populated on creation from the game title with automatic deduplication

Changed

• Share URLs now use steamAppId (Steam) or slug (non-Steam) instead of the internal UUID

Technical

• Added slug column to games table with partial unique index
• Extended resolveGame() to support slug-based lookups as a fallback resolution path
• Added lib/utils/slug.ts for slug generation utility
• Backfilled slugs for all existing non-Steam games

[2026.1.0] - 2026-05-16

Added

• Moderation analytics tab with ECharts time-series: benchmark submissions, user registrations, device distribution, and genre popularity over 90 days
• Ban reason and expiry UI in user management — modal with optional reason and duration, plus active/banned filter tabs
• Steam Sale section on landing page showing discounted games with ≥3 benchmarks, sorted by performance — includes discount badges, pricing, and review scores
• Database performance indexes: perf_removed_created_idx, perf_upvotes_idx, reports_status_idx, suggestions_status_idx, games_sync_status_idx, perf_game_lookup_idx
• In-memory 5-minute cache for manage dashboard stats endpoint
• Auto-pin unit tests covering threshold edge cases

Changed

• Performance tags (Raw Performer/Poor Performance/best FPS) now scoped to handheld devices (Steam Deck OLED/LCD) by default — console (Steam Machine) data no longer influences the badges shown on game cards, listings, and search results
• Public dashboard now uses full-width layout matching game details page styling (no max-w constraint)
• Moderator role added between contributor and admin; manage sidebar adapts to show role-appropriate navigation (hides Users, Storage for moderators)
• Manage panel now requires moderator or admin role for access (previously contributor+)
• Content moderation endpoints (reports, suggestions, comments, benchmark removal) gated to moderator+

Fixed

• Submit wizard drag-and-drop no longer triggers text selection or touch-scroll interference on settings and screenshot reorder handles
• Editing entries with screenshots now shows existing screenshots in the Review step with remove capability; supports hybrid existing + new screenshot management

Security

• Manage panel access restricted to moderator+ (up from contributor+)
• Destructive benchmark operations (remove, hard-delete, restore) now require moderator+ (up from admin-only — wider moderation capability with proper role separation)

[2026.0.97] - 2026-05-06

Fixed

• Sitemap.xml used ISR caching (revalidate = 3600) which poisoned the cache with empty responses on DB hiccups; switched to force-dynamic for per-request fresh generation
• DB errors during sitemap generation were silently caught and returned as empty arrays (no games indexed); errors now propagate to observability with structured logging
• Games with NULL syncStatus were excluded from sitemap due to SQL <> 'failed' returning NULL (not TRUE) for NULL values

• Removed app/api/revalidate-sitemap/ route (no longer needed with force-dynamic)
