n8n 2.x disables n8n-nodes-base.executeCommand by default (nodes.exclude), so the
first workflow shape could not activate: 'Unrecognized node type'. Replace the
Execute Command node with the SSH node, which is enabled, and keep the restricted
trigger key: the server forced command runs exactly scripts/morning-brief.sh.
- deploy/n8n-morning-brief.json: schedule + optional manual trigger -> SSH node
-> Code check that makes a non-zero exit red (FR-12).
- deploy/import-n8n-morning-brief.sh: builds the sshPrivateKey credential from the
key (id schoolScanKey, mode-0600 temp, removed after import), imports, publishes,
restarts once, and confirms activation in the n8n log.
- scripts/morning-brief.sh: default IMAGE 0.6.1-phase8 so the scheduled job uses
the deployed image.
- docs/phase-7a-n8n-schedule.md, deploy/DEPLOYMENT.md: document the design and the
throwaway-n8n rehearsal (activation + success + failure path).
The morning briefs go out through the house Apprise API on `.35:8210`: one
brief per boy and one combined brief to Jo and Sam (FR-9, FR-14). The service
names an Apprise tag (`harry_email`, `joanna_whatsapp`, ...) and never holds an
address, a phone number or an SMTP password (AGENTS.md §10 rule 3).
- internal/apprise: keyed and stateless client, tag filtering, and error
redaction so nothing sensitive reaches a log, a row or a screen.
- internal/brief: builds the per-boy and the combined brief, delivers on email
and WhatsApp, records every attempt in `notifications` (migration 004 adds
scope, channel, tag, ok and error) and fails loudly.
- Send panel (§5 screen 4): recipients, channels, an exact preview, Send now,
plus the Send action on a stored draft (FR-10). The dashboard shows a
Morning briefs banner and the Sends list.
- POST /notify/morning: the bearer-token endpoint the 6:00am n8n schedule
calls. 207 when a channel or a scan failed; `dry_run=1` checks the wiring
without messaging the family.
- scripts/morning-brief.sh: scan both children, then send. It is the n8n job;
deploy/n8n-morning-brief.json is the ready-to-import workflow (06:00 daily).
- FR-12: a failed scan is never "nothing due" -- the brief says so, and the run
exits non-zero. A failed delivery is recorded with no sent_at.
- The long no-due-date tail is capped in the sent brief so it stays brief
(§10 rule 6); overdue work is never capped.
Verified live: 8 deliveries recorded (4 email, 4 WhatsApp) with HTTP 200 and
sent_at, and the endpoint answers 401/200/207 as documented. Evidence in
docs/phase-7-notify-notes.md.
