The API without a date param returns today's operating data directly,
invalidating the previous assumption that today's date was always missing.
- Add fetchToday(apiId, revalidate?) to sixflags.ts — calls the dateless
endpoint with optional ISR cache
- Extract parseApiDay() helper shared by scrapeMonth and fetchToday
- Update upsertDay WHERE clause: >= date('now') so today can be updated
(was > date('now'), which froze today after first write)
- scrape.ts: add a today-scrape pass after the monthly loop so each run
always writes fresh today data to the DB
- app/page.tsx: fetch live today data for all parks (5-min ISR) and merge
into the data map before computing open/closing/weatherDelay status
- app/park/[id]/page.tsx: prefer live today data from API for todayData
so weather delays and hour changes surface within 5 minutes
- scrapeRidesForDay: update comment only — role unchanged (QT fallback)

- Add lib/park-meta.ts to manage data/park-meta.json (rcdb_id + coaster lists)
- Add lib/scrapers/rcdb.ts to scrape operating coaster names from RCDB park pages
- discover.ts now seeds park-meta.json with skeleton entries for all parks
- scrape.ts now refreshes RCDB coaster lists (30-day staleness) for parks with rcdb_id set
- fetchLiveRides() accepts a coasterNames Set; isCoaster uses normalize() on both sides
to handle trademark symbols, 'THE ' prefixes, and punctuation differences between
Queue-Times and RCDB names — applies correctly to both land rides and top-level rides
- Commit park-meta.json so it ships in the Docker image (fresh volumes get it automatically)
- Update .gitignore / .dockerignore to exclude only *.db files, not all of data/
- Dockerfile copies park-meta.json into image before VOLUME declaration
- README: document coaster filter setup and correct staleness window (72h not 7d)

Scraper automation (docker-compose):
- Add scraper service to docker-compose.yml using the same image and
shared park_data volume; overrides CMD to run scrape-schedule.sh
- scripts/scrape-schedule.sh: runs an initial scrape on container start,
then sleeps until 3:00 AM (respects TZ env var) and repeats nightly;
logs timestamps and next-run countdown; non-fatal on scrape errors
Staleness window: 7 days → 72 hours in lib/db.ts so data refreshes
more frequently with the automated schedule in place
Remove favicon: delete app/icon.tsx and public/logo.svg

- Buyout days are now treated as closed unless they carry a Passholder
Preview event, in which case they surface as a distinct purple cell
in the UI showing "Passholder" + hours
- DB gains a special_type column (auto-migrated on next startup)
- scrape.ts threads specialType through to upsertDay
- debug.ts now shows events, isBuyout, isPassholderPreview, and
specialType in the parsed result section

Creates debug/ folder (txt files gitignored). Output is printed to
the terminal and written to the file simultaneously.

npm run debug -- --park greatadventure --date 2026-07-04
Prints the raw API response for that day alongside the parsed result
so mismatched or missing hours can be traced to their source.

Each park prints a row of █ (fetched) and · (skipped) as months
complete, then ends with open day count, "up to date", or error count.
