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)

- isCoaster → isCoasterMatch on line 109 (missed rename causing runtime crash
which returned null from fetchLiveRides, breaking the entire ride panel)
- Rewrite test as two flat arrays: SHOULD_MATCH and SHOULD_NOT_MATCH pairs,
each with the QT name, RCDB name, and park for context

Imports must appear before other statements in ES modules.
Also drop the explicit .ts extension from import paths — Next.js
bundler resolves them without it, and the extension after const
was causing the module to silently fail in the app.

Extract matching logic into lib/coaster-match.ts (isCoasterMatch + normalizeForMatch)
so it can be imported by both the scraper and tests without duplication.
Add tests/coaster-matching.test.ts covering all known match/false-positive cases:
- Trademark symbols, leading THE, possessives, punctuation
- Subtitle variants in both directions (Apocalypse, New Revolution - Classic)
- Space-split brand words (BAT GIRL vs Batgirl)
- 4D subtitle extension (THE JOKER™ 4D Free Fly Coaster vs Joker)
- False positives: Joker y Harley Quinn, conjunction connectors
Run with: npm test

Matching fixes:
- normalize() now strips all non-word/non-space chars via [^\w\s] instead of
a hand-rolled list, catching !, curly apostrophe (U+2019), and any future edge cases
- Add isCoaster() helper with prefix matching (min 5 chars) to handle subtitle
mismatches in either direction (e.g. "Apocalypse" vs "Apocalypse the Ride",
"The New Revolution - Classic" vs "New Revolution")
- Fix top-level rides loop which still used coasterNames.has(normalize()) instead
of isCoaster() — this was the recurring bug causing top-level rides to miss
UI:
- Dark neutral base (#111) replacing cold navy and muddy purple
- Neon accent palette: hot pink, electric green, vivid yellow, cyan
- Park page max-width 960→1280px, calendar cells 72→96px tall
- Scrollbar accent matches theme

- 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)

Queue-Times groups rides into lands (e.g. "Coasters", "Family", "Kids").
Capture that categorisation in LiveRide.isCoaster and surface it as a
toggle in the new LiveRidePanel client component.
- lib/scrapers/queuetimes.ts: add isCoaster: boolean to LiveRide,
derived from land.name.toLowerCase().includes("coaster")
- components/LiveRidePanel.tsx: client component replacing the old
inline LiveRideList; adds a "🎢 Coasters only" pill toggle that
filters the grid; toggle only appears when the park has coaster-
categorised rides; amber when active, muted when inactive
- app/park/[id]/page.tsx: swap LiveRideList for LiveRidePanel,
remove now-dead LiveRideList/LiveRideRow functions

Park detail pages now show real-time ride open/closed status and wait
times sourced from Queue-Times.com (updates every 5 min) when a park
is operating. Falls back to the Six Flags schedule API for off-hours
or parks without a Queue-Times mapping.
- lib/queue-times-map.ts: maps all 24 park IDs to Queue-Times park IDs
- lib/scrapers/queuetimes.ts: fetches and parses queue_times.json with
5-minute ISR cache; returns LiveRidesResult with isOpen + waitMinutes
- app/park/[id]/page.tsx: tries Queue-Times first; renders LiveRideList
with Live badge and per-ride wait times; falls back to RideList for
schedule data when live data is unavailable
- README: documents two-tier ride status approach
Attribution: Queue-Times.com (displayed in UI per their API terms)

Visual overhaul:
- Warmer color system with amber accent for Today, better text hierarchy
- Row hover highlighting, sticky column shadow on horizontal scroll
- Closed cells replaced with dot (·) instead of "Closed" text
- Regional grouping (Northeast/Southeast/Midwest/Texas & South/West)
- Two-row header with park count badge and WeekNav on separate lines
- Amber "Today" button in WeekNav when off current week
- Mobile card layout (< 1024px) with 7-day grid per park; table on desktop
- Skeleton loading state via app/loading.tsx
Park detail pages (/park/[id]):
- Month calendar view with ← → navigation via ?month= param
- Live ride status fetched from Six Flags API (cached 1h)
- Ride hours only shown when they differ from park operating hours
- Fallback to nearest upcoming open day when today is dropped by API,
including cross-month fallback for end-of-month edge case
Data layer:
- Park type gains region field; parks.ts exports groupByRegion()
- db.ts gains getParkMonthData() for single-park month queries
- sixflags.ts gains scrapeRidesForDay() returning RidesFetchResult
with rides, dataDate, isExact, and parkHoursLabel
Removed: CalendarGrid.tsx, MonthNav.tsx (dead code)

- 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

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.

Next.js 15 + Tailwind CSS v4 week calendar showing Six Flags park hours.
Scrapes the internal CloudFront API, stores results in SQLite.
Includes Dockerfile (Debian/Playwright-compatible), docker-compose, and
Gitea Actions pipeline that builds and pushes to the container registry.
