# Fleet Ops final localization — final summary

Small, targeted correction round on top of the already-merged, functionally-validated
Fleet Ops correction milestone. Scope: remaining NL/FR translation gaps, centralized
API-error localization, a time-dependent Europe/Brussels dashboard greeting, i18n
test hardening, and documentation consistency — explicitly no redesign, no business-logic
changes, no new functionality. Audit and rationale: `docs/fleet-ops-final-localization/audit.md`.

| Deployed commit | `5f0eaa59b032fc1e7b5e2e86d6ddd1d0f70e20d0` | matches `.deploy/source-revision` on Unraid exactly |

Branch used: `fix/fleet-ops-final-i18n-ux` (the brief named `fix/fleet-ops-final-localization`;
this branch was verified freshly and cleanly branched from `origin/master` with a clean
working tree, so it was used as-is rather than renamed — see the audit doc's naming note).
`origin/master` was re-fetched and confirmed unchanged (`f780557`) immediately before the
merge, per the mandatory pre-merge safety check.

## Product name and supported languages

- Visible product name: **Fleet Ops**, everywhere, never translated (`frontend/src/product.ts`
  constant, interpolated as `{{productName}}`). "MobilityOps" remains the internal repo /
  Compose project / deployment-directory identifier only.
- Supported UI languages: **nl-BE** (default), **en-GB**, **fr-BE**.
- No visible "MobilityOps" or the word "PoC" anywhere in the UI (enforced by a dedicated
  automated test, see below).

## Corrected translations

- Role names actually translated (not just labelled as translated): `auth.json` /
  `demo.json` role keys — **Operationsmanager** / **Verhuurmedewerker** (nl-BE),
  **Responsable des opérations** / **Collaborateur de location** (fr-BE).
- `audit.title` → **Auditgeschiedenis** / **Piste d'audit**; `columns.actor` → **Uitvoerder**
  (nl-BE) / **Auteur** (fr-BE, corrected during live browser validation — see Known
  limitations).
- `list.statusOpen` → **Openstaand**; `ledger.filterRecent` → **Recentste**;
  `scenarios.startScenario` → **Scenario starten** / **Démarrer le scénario**.
- 8 previously-missed mid-sentence "Audit trail" leaks fixed across `demo.json`,
  `quality.json`, `returns.json` (nl-BE) — found by the new embedded-substring test, not
  the pre-existing whole-string-identity test, which structurally cannot catch this class
  of bug.
- No unintended English text remains in nl-BE or fr-BE (see translation-coverage evidence
  below).

## Removed allowlist exceptions

Removed 7 now-stale `IDENTICAL_VALUE_ALLOWLIST` entries in `i18n-coverage.spec.ts`:
`audit.title`, `auth.roleOperationsManager`, `auth.roleRentalEmployee`,
`demo.scenarios.startScenario`, `demo.scenarios.roles.operations_manager`,
`demo.scenarios.roles.rental_employee`, `navigation.items.audit` — all now genuinely
translated; their old comments describing them as "deliberately untranslated" were no
longer true. Two new tests added: embedded-English/Dutch-substring leak guard, and a
no-"MobilityOps"/no-"PoC" guard.

## Hardcoded-text result

The pre-existing static JSX scanner (`i18n-coverage.spec.ts`, section 11D) found **zero**
hardcoded user-facing strings outside the approved technical-token allowlist (Fleet Ops,
Northstar Mobility, ITWorx MCP Hub) across `pages/` and `components/`. Result: **PASS**.

## API-error-localization result

New `frontend/src/api/errorMessages.ts` (`describeApiError`) replaces the
`err instanceof ApiError ? err.message : t(fallback)` anti-pattern (which showed raw
English backend text for the common case) at all 13 call sites across 7 files
(`Automation.tsx`, `ReturnForm.tsx`, `DataQuality.tsx`, `DemoGuide.tsx`, `Layout.tsx`,
`DataQualityIssueDetail.tsx` ×7 sites, `Knowledge.tsx`). Resolution order: known `AppError`
code (32 codes) → known HTTP status (401/403/404/409/422/500) → fully generic fallback.
New `ApiErrorNotice` component (`PageChrome.tsx`) always renders a localized title +
explanation + optional next step; raw backend text is demoted to a "Technical
details"/"Détails techniques" disclosure, never the primary message.

Evidence: `frontend/e2e/error-messages.spec.ts` (10 tests, all passing) —
every known code/status has non-empty copy in all 3 locales; a known code never surfaces
raw text as the primary message; unknown-code and unknown-status fallback chains behave
correctly; a drift guard greps the actual backend `AppError("CODE", ...)` call sites and
confirms `KNOWN_CODES` exactly matches (32 codes, zero drift). Live-verified on Unraid: the
seeded failed automation run renders a fully localized French error with a "DÉTAILS
TECHNIQUES" disclosure below it.

## Greeting logic and edge cases

New `frontend/src/i18n/greeting.ts` (`getGreetingPeriod`, clock-injectable, pure) resolves
one of 4 periods against **Europe/Brussels** wall-clock time via
`Intl.DateTimeFormat({ timeZone: "Europe/Brussels", hourCycle: "h23" })` (DST-safe by
construction — no manual UTC-offset math):

| Period | Window | nl-BE | en-GB | fr-BE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| morning | 05:00–11:59 | Goedemorgen | Good morning | Bonjour |
| afternoon | 12:00–17:59 | Goedemiddag | Good afternoon | Bonjour |
| evening | 18:00–22:59 | Goedenavond | Good evening | Bonsoir |
| night | 23:00–04:59 | Welkom terug | Welcome back | Bon retour |

Never "Goedenacht" (a farewell in Dutch, not a welcome). Each period also has its own
accompanying sentence per language (`dashboard.json` `greetingBody`), replacing the old
fixed "Here's the fleet." `useGreetingPeriod.ts` polls every 30s so the greeting rolls
over live while the app stays open, no reload required; initial render uses a synchronous
`useState(() => getGreetingPeriod())` so there is never a flash of the wrong period.

Edge-case evidence:
- `frontend/e2e/greeting.spec.ts` (4 tests): exact boundary checks at 04:59/05:00/11:59/
  12:00/17:59/18:00/22:59/23:00 in both CET (winter) and CEST (summer), plus a dedicated
  spring-forward/fall-back DST-transition test (2026-03-29 and 2026-10-25).
- `frontend/e2e/greeting-live.spec.ts` (6 tests, real browser via Playwright's `page.clock`):
  all 8 boundary times rendered correctly in **all 3 languages** against the actual app;
  live period rollover with no `page.reload()` call anywhere in that test; language-switch
  behaviour without changing the time period; the "never Goedenacht" guard.
- Live-verified on Unraid at actual current server time (2026-08-04, ~03:2x CEST, i.e. the
  night period): dashboard showed "Welkom terug. Hier is het laatste overzicht van je
  wagenpark." (nl-BE), "Welcome back. Here's the latest overview of your fleet." (en-GB),
  "Bon retour. Voici le dernier aperçu de votre flotte." (fr-BE).

## README / PROJECT_STATE corrections

- `PROJECT_STATE.md`: fixed the stale "Product name: MobilityOps." / "PoC only"
  locked-decisions lines (predated the Fleet Ops rebrand); fixed the "Fleet Ops
  correction" section header, which still read "IN PROGRESS .../Not yet merged to
  master" despite already being merged (`de0bdea` / `f780557`); appended a new dated
  entry for this correction round (not a rewrite of prior entries, per the brief's
  explicit instruction not to hide earlier history).
- `README.md`: linked `docs/fleet-ops-final-localization/` alongside the existing
  correction-round doc link; refreshed the stale Playwright test count (113 → 138 → 139
  after the favicon regression test was added).

## Backend tests, Ruff, mypy

Run on the final master commit (`5f0eaa5`), local dev stack, rebuilt from source:

- `pytest`: **151 passed**, 0 failed.
- `ruff check .`: **All checks passed!**
- `mypy app` (the project's canonical invocation, matching all prior milestone gates —
  no `[tool.mypy]` strict config exists in `pyproject.toml`): **Success: no issues found
  in 49 source files.**

No backend Python was touched this round; these numbers are unchanged from the prior
correction milestone's final gate, confirmed green again on the current tree.

## Frontend build, Playwright

- `npx tsc --noEmit`: clean, 0 errors.
- `npm run build` (`tsc -b && vite build`): clean production build.
- Full Playwright suite (`npx playwright test`), master build, local dev stack:
  **139 passed**, 0 failed (confirmed on a clean run after two transient
  `0xC0000005` Chromium worker crashes caused by this specific machine running 43+
  concurrent Chrome processes at the time — see Known limitations; a targeted 48-test
  re-run of every new/changed suite also passed cleanly in between).

## Clean-checkout drill

Isolated Compose project `mobilityops-clean` (ports 8129/1229/5679, no shared volumes/
network with the working dev stack), fresh `git clone --branch
fix/fleet-ops-final-i18n-ux` of only committed files:

1. `docker compose build` + `up -d` from empty volumes — all 4 containers healthy.
2. `alembic upgrade head` → `799d8800e241 (head)`.
3. `seed --reset` → 2 users / 180 customers / 50 vehicles / 246 bookings / 75 inspections /
   40 maintenance / 27 data-quality issues / 20 workflow runs — matches the documented
   deterministic count exactly.
4. Backend gates: `pytest` 151 passed, `ruff check .` clean, `mypy app` clean (49 files).
5. Frontend: `npm ci` clean, `tsc --noEmit` clean, `vite build` clean.
6. Full Playwright suite against the isolated stack (`MOBILITYOPS_PUBLIC_URL=http://localhost:1229`):
   **139 passed**, 0 failed — this run covers the Dutch/English/French language checks,
   greeting boundaries, API error paths, and the guided demo, all in one pass.
7. Final reset + `scenario_integrity`: all 5 scenarios `ready: true`.
8. Isolated stack, containers, volumes and images torn down; original dev environment
   confirmed untouched (`mobilityops-*` containers unaffected throughout).

**PASS.**

## Guided demo per language

Verified live on the Unraid deployment (`http://192.168.10.150:1236`) in all 3 languages
via direct browser interaction: login screen role buttons, dashboard (greeting, readiness
band, attention queue, integration pulse, recent activity), audit trail, automation retry
flow with localized error + technical-details disclosure, and demo reset — all rendering
correctly in nl-BE, en-GB and fr-BE. The full guided-demo Playwright spec
(`guided-demo-full.spec.ts`) passed as part of the 139-test suite on both the local dev
stack and the isolated clean-checkout stack.

## Server deployment, container health

Deployed to `http://192.168.10.150:1236` (Compose project `mobilityops`,
`/mnt/user/appdata/mobilityops`), preserving the server's existing `.env`, the Postgres
and n8n named volumes, the exposed port, and the deployment directory — only `api` and
`web` were rebuilt/recreated; `db` was never touched beyond `alembic upgrade head`; no
second n8n instance was started (shared existing n8n at `:5678` used throughout).

Procedure (matching `docs/demo-release/demo-runbook.md` exactly): `git archive` → `scp` →
extract over the existing deployment dir → update `.deploy/source-revision` →
`docker compose -p mobilityops -f compose.yaml -f compose.unraid.yaml up --build -d api web`
→ confirm `alembic current` → `seed --reset`.

Final container status:

```
mobilityops-api-1   Up (healthy)
mobilityops-db-1    Up (healthy)
mobilityops-web-1   Up (healthy)
```

Deployed twice this round: once for the fix-branch tip (`09173a4`, with full live
3-language validation), once for the final master merge commit (`5f0eaa5`) after the
merge — both deployments passed migrations, reseed, and a live smoke test.

## Repository / runtime hash comparison

```
git rev-parse HEAD (local, master)              = 5f0eaa59b032fc1e7b5e2e86d6ddd1d0f70e20d0
/mnt/user/appdata/mobilityops/.deploy/source-revision = 5f0eaa59b032fc1e7b5e2e86d6ddd1d0f70e20d0
```

**Exact match.**

## Browser console and network

No console errors on any checked route in any of the 3 languages (dashboard, audit,
automation, login) on the live Unraid deployment. All observed `/api/` network requests
returned `200`. `api` and `web` container logs show no errors/tracebacks/exceptions after
the final deployment.

## Known limitations

- **Transient `document.documentElement.lang` DOM-attribute anomaly during interactive
  manual browser testing** on the live server: on 2 occasions, right after a client-side
  action (an automation retry click; a demo-reset confirm click), `document.documentElement.lang`
  briefly showed `"nl"` while the actually-rendered page content, `localStorage`, and a
  controlled repeat of the exact same click sequence (fresh login, single deliberate
  click, immediate inspection) all remained correctly `"fr-BE"`. Root-caused as far as
  possible: the codebase has exactly one `i18n.changeLanguage()` call site
  (`LanguageSwitcher.tsx`), which was not invoked in the clean repro, and `t()` /
  `i18n.language` are structurally coupled through a single i18next singleton with no
  code path capable of producing this split state. Not reproduced even once across 139
  automated Playwright tests run 3 times total (local pre-merge, isolated clean-checkout,
  local post-merge on master) in a clean, extension-free browser context. Most likely
  explanation: a third-party browser extension active in the specific interactive testing
  session (which also had ~10 unrelated pre-existing tabs open on the same origin, and
  showed independent signs of instability — repeated CDP screenshot timeouts) rewriting
  the `lang` attribute based on its own content heuristics, independent of the React app.
  Logged here for transparency rather than silently dismissed; does not affect any
  automated PASS result above.
- **Two transient Chromium worker crashes** (`0xC0000005` / access violation) during the
  master-build Playwright re-run, on a machine that had accumulated 43+ concurrent Chrome
  processes from the interactive testing session above. A clean run immediately
  afterward (fewer processes) passed all 139 tests; a 48-test targeted re-run of every
  new/changed suite also passed cleanly in between. Treated as machine resource
  contention, not a code defect — consistent with the prior correction milestone's own
  documented experience of "sequential-run-only flakes reproduced from resource
  contention of running two full Docker stacks at once," per `PROJECT_STATE.md`.
- One translation gap (fr-BE `audit.columns.actor`: "Acteur" instead of the brief's
  specified "Auteur") was missed in the initial pass and only caught during live browser
  validation on Unraid; fixed in commit `09173a4` and redeployed before the master merge.
- The Fleet Ops brand mark (`BrandMark` in `Icons.tsx`) was flagged by the user as
  potentially due for a visual refresh; per explicit user decision mid-session, this is
  out of scope for this correction round and deferred to a separate follow-up task.
- No RAGcore/MCP Hub implementation changes were made or claimed; both remain in the same
  demo/not-connected state documented by the prior correction milestone.

## Rollback procedure

`.deploy/source-revision` on the server records exactly which commit is live. To roll
back: `ssh unraid`, extract an earlier `source-<short-sha>.tar.gz` from
`/mnt/user/appdata/mobilityops/.deploy/` (prior tarballs remain in place, including
`source-9468cc3e.tar.gz`, `source-09173a4.tar.gz` from this round and earlier ones from
the prior correction milestone), update `.deploy/source-revision` to match, and re-run
`docker compose -p mobilityops -f compose.yaml -f compose.unraid.yaml up --build -d api web`
followed by `alembic upgrade head` (migrations are additive only — no destructive
migration exists on this branch, so no database rollback is needed). No secrets were
printed or read at any point in this process (`.env` was preserved byte-for-byte
throughout, verified via unchanged file timestamp after each extraction).
