Inspected the shared n8n instance (n8n.itworx.tech) live: both existing
Fleet Ops workflows are genuinely active and structurally match the repo,
but the shared X-Service-Token secret was stored as plaintext literal
text in both HTTP Request nodes (exportable in the clear), and the
production return webhook had n8n-level Authentication set to "None"
(publicly callable by anyone who discovered the URL). Findings recorded
in docs/live-ai-integration/n8n-current-state.md.
Fixed on the n8n side (both workflows published): the shared token now
lives in a single Header Auth credential instead of two literal copies;
the return webhook now requires a second, distinct Header Auth
credential.
Fixed on the Fleet Ops side to match: the outbox dispatcher now sends
the new X-Fleet-Ops-Trigger-Token header (new
MOBILITYOPS_WEBHOOK_TRIGGER_TOKEN setting) when calling the webhook.
Live-verified against the real webhook: a request with no header is now
rejected (403); a request with the correct header passes n8n's auth and
reaches Fleet Ops's own business logic.
That same live test also surfaced a real robustness gap: an n8n
execution that errors before its "Respond to Webhook" node runs can
still answer with a 2xx status and an empty body, which made
response.json() raise an uncaught exception, potentially leaving the
outbox event stuck in "delivering". Now treated as an explicit,
retryable failure (error_code=malformedResponse), with a regression
test reproducing the exact case.
Adds GET /api/v1/demo/manifest as a single source of truth for the demo's
fictional org identity (Northstar Mobility -- surfacing the project's
already-locked tenant name), synthetic-data/reset state, and live scenario
readiness. Rewrites the login screen in Dutch with an honest, no-password
demo entry and a guided-demo entry point, replaces the loud full-width
demo banner with a subtle badge + popover, and adds a compact About page
explaining what's real vs. synthetic vs. not yet connected.
Booking/inspection/maintenance/outbox dates were authored as absolute
timestamps around a fixed 2026-08-01 anchor and never re-anchored at
seed/reset time, so demo scenarios (e.g. BK-DEMO-RETURN) silently drifted
into the past. Every reset now shifts seeded dates by (today - authored
anchor); dashboard's "today" filter uses real wall-clock time instead of
the now-removed frozen demo_today setting. Adds seed-validation tests
proving scenarios S1/S2/S4/S5 are present and internally consistent after
every reset.
Four read-only, service-token-protected MCP provider endpoints (operations summary, attention vehicles, vehicle details, knowledge search facade). Shared-secret auth reusing the M4 callback pattern. Service-request audit trail for every call. Extracted shared operations-summary logic out of the dashboard router to avoid duplicating retrieval logic. 66 backend tests passing, ruff clean. Verified all four endpoints and audit trail directly via curl against the live stack (no live MCP Hub instance available in this environment).
Outbox dispatcher (background thread, FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED claim, exponential backoff, no transaction held during HTTP I/O). n8n callback endpoint with shared-secret auth and idempotency by event ID. Automation nav + UI with manual retry. 49 backend tests passing, ruff clean. Fixed a crash-on-redelivery bug in seeded outbox payloads and made the dispatcher defensive against malformed payloads. Verified the full live round trip against a real n8n instance: return -> outbox -> dispatcher -> n8n workflow -> callback -> succeeded, including the S5 failed-retry demo scenario.
