The ride detail and park pages fetched with `next: { revalidate: 60 }`,
which is stale-while-revalidate. After hours of no traffic the Data Cache
held a morning snapshot; the first click served that stale value and only
the second request (e.g. a browser refresh) got the just-revalidated
payload. The endpoint also bundles live state with chart history, so one
stale fetch made the whole page wrong.
Switch the live-data fetches to `cache: "no-store"`. The calendar-month
fetch keeps its 5-min ISR since operating hours change slowly.
The home page no longer reads ?week=YYYY-MM-DD from the URL. Selected week
lives in the tcWeek cookie, set via a server action that revalidates the
home page so the next render reflects it. The URL stays at "/" regardless
of which week the user is viewing.
WeekNav prev/next/today buttons (and the arrow-key bindings) call the
server action directly — no router.refresh dance, no client-side cookie
write. BackToCalendarLink drops its localStorage-based href reconstruction
and just links to "/" since the cookie already remembers the right week
across navigations.

Two related polish fixes for the ride detail page:
1. Wait-time chart x-axis now uses Intl.DateTimeFormat with no timezone
argument, so an Eastern-time user viewing a Pacific park sees ET on
the axis. Backend now sends recorded_at (UTC) alongside local_time.
2. Ride-history endpoint now applies the same operating-window gate the
/rides route uses. Queue-Times keeps reporting yesterday's last wait
with isOpen=true overnight, which made the "Right now" pill show a
live wait time when the park was actually closed.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds a cron-driven sampler that snapshots Queue-Times waits and Six Flags
Fast Lane data every 5 minutes into a new ride_wait_samples table, and a
clickable per-ride detail page at /park/[id]/ride/[slug] with Today / 7d /
30d Recharts views plus a 30d uptime pill. Rides are keyed by Queue-Times'
stable qt_ride_id so renames don't fragment history. Samples store
pre-bucketed local_date and local_time in the park's IANA timezone so
aggregations are pure SQL and DST-safe.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Join Fast Lane waits from the Six Flags /wait-times endpoint onto
Queue-Times rides by name. A new toggle on the live ride panel swaps
the shown wait to the Fast Lane number; regular waits and open status
still come from Queue-Times.

getTodayLocal() relied on system clock hours, which broke in the web
container (TZ defaulting to UTC) — the day flipped at 11 PM EDT (3 AM
UTC) instead of 3 AM Eastern. Now uses Intl.DateTimeFormat with an
explicit America/New_York timezone. Also replaced all toISOString()
date formatting with local-component helpers to avoid UTC conversion.

Server components now fetch composed data from the backend instead of
directly querying SQLite and external APIs. Removes better-sqlite3
dependency from the frontend entirely.

Embed Six Flags API IDs directly in the park registry and snapshot
coaster lists from park-meta.json into a TypeScript module. This
eliminates the Playwright-based discovery script, RCDB scraper, and
runtime dependency on park-meta.json — preparing for the backend
API transition.
- Add apiId field to Park type and all 24 park entries
- Create lib/coaster-data.ts with hardcoded coaster lists
- Update page components to use park.apiId and new getCoasterSet()
- Remove scripts/discover.ts, lib/scrapers/rcdb.ts, lib/park-meta.ts
- Remove data/park-meta.json from shared volume
- Remove playwright devDependency and discover npm script
- Simplify scripts/scrape.ts (no RCDB, no discovery checks)

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)

- Dot turns blue (instead of green) during weather delay on homepage
- Mobile card "Open today" badge becomes blue "⛈ Weather Delay"
- Park page LiveRidePanel shows a blue "⛈ Weather Delay — all rides currently closed" badge instead of "Not open yet — check back soon"
- Added --color-weather-* CSS variables (blue palette)

Park open indicator now derives from scheduled hours, not ride counts.
Parks with queue-times coverage but 0 open rides (e.g. storm) show a
"⛈ Weather Delay" notice instead of a ride count on both desktop and mobile.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Mobile cells (~55px wide) can't fit hours text legibly, so show only a
colored dot when open and a dash when no data. Desktop restores the full
pill (hours + tz abbreviation) via Tailwind responsive classes. Row height
is controlled by a new .park-calendar-grid CSS class: 72px fixed on mobile,
minmax(96px, auto) on sm+, keeping desktop cells from looking cramped.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Parks in the 1-hour buffer after scheduled close now show amber instead
of green: the dot on the desktop calendar turns yellow, and the mobile
card badge changes from "Open today" (green) to "Closing" (amber).
- getOperatingStatus() replaces isWithinOperatingWindow's inline logic,
returning "open" | "closing" | "closed"; isWithinOperatingWindow now
delegates to it so all callers are unchanged
- closingParkIds[] is computed server-side and threaded through
HomePageClient → WeekCalendar/MobileCardList → ParkRow/ParkCard
- New --color-closing-* CSS variables mirror the green palette in amber
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
HomePageClient writes the current weekStart to localStorage("lastWeek")
whenever it changes. BackToCalendarLink (new client component) reads
that value on mount and builds the href — falling back to "/" if nothing
is stored (e.g. direct link to a park page).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Moves the coaster toggle out of WeekNav and into the homepage header
top-right as "🎢 Coaster Mode", alongside the parks open badge
- State is stored in localStorage ("coasterMode") so the preference
persists across sessions and page refreshes
- Dropped the ?coasters=1 URL param entirely; the server always fetches
both rideCounts and coasterCounts, and HomePageClient picks which to
display client-side — no flash or server round-trip on toggle
- Individual park pages: LiveRidePanel reads localStorage on mount and
pre-selects the Coasters Only filter when Coaster Mode is active
- Extracted HomePageClient (client component) to own the full homepage
UI; page.tsx is now pure data-fetching

Attribution now sits on the right end of the "RIDES · Live" bar as a
subtle "via queue-times.com" link, making it clear the live ride data
(not the whole site) is sourced from Queue-Times. Removed the orphaned
attribution block from the bottom of LiveRidePanel.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- "parks open" → "parks open this week" for clarity
- Week calendar cells: stack hours above tz abbreviation (smaller,
dimmer) instead of inline to avoid overflow in tight 130px columns
- Mobile park cards: tz abbreviation inline but smaller/dimmer (60% opacity)
- Month calendar: same two-line stacking in compact day cells
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- isWithinOperatingWindow now accepts an IANA timezone and reads the
current time in the park's local timezone via Intl.DateTimeFormat,
fixing false positives when the server runs in UTC but parks store
hours in local time (e.g. Pacific parks showing open at 6:50 AM EDT)
- Remove the 1-hour pre-open buffer so parks are not marked open before
their doors actually open; retain the 1-hour post-close grace period
- Add getTimezoneAbbr() helper to derive the short tz label (EDT, PDT…)
- All hours labels now display with the local timezone abbreviation
(e.g. "10am – 6pm PDT") in WeekCalendar, ParkCard, and ParkMonthCalendar

- 🎢 Coasters button in nav bar (URL-driven: ?coasters=1)
- When active, swaps ride counts for coaster counts per park
- Label switches between "X rides operating" / "X coasters operating"
- Arrow key navigation preserves coaster filter state
- Only shown when coaster data exists in park-meta
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- "X rides open" → "X rides operating" (desktop + mobile)
- Green glowing dot next to park name when actively operating
- Hours text in calendar cells: larger (0.78rem) and bolder (600)
- Parks open badge: green tint when parks are open, larger text
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Extract isWithinOperatingWindow() to lib/env.ts (shared)
- Park detail page: always fetch Queue-Times, but force all rides
closed when outside the ±1h operating window
- LiveRidePanel: always show closed ride count badge (not just when
some rides are also open); label reads "X rides total" when none
are open vs "X closed / down" when some are
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Fetch Queue-Times ride counts for parks open today (5min cache)
- Only shown within 1h before open to 1h after scheduled close
- Count displayed on the right of the park name/location cell (desktop)
and below the open badge (mobile)
- Whole park cell is now a clickable link
- Hover warms the park cell background; no row-wide highlight

new Date().toISOString() returns UTC, causing the calendar to advance
to the next day at 8pm EDT / 7pm EST. getTodayLocal() reads local
wall-clock time and rolls back one day before 3am so the calendar
stays on the current day through the night.

Restores fixed-height ride rows with ellipsis truncation.

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
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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

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

Replace the cramped 7-column day grid with a clean open-days list.
Each card now shows:
- Park name + "Open today" / "Closed today" badge in the header
- One row per open day (Today, Monday, Friday...) with full hours
- Today row highlighted in amber; passholder days labeled inline
- Whole card is a tap target linking to the park detail page
Also:
- Hide the legend below sm breakpoint (not needed on phones)
- Reduce horizontal padding to 16px on mobile (was 24px)
- Tighten MobileCardList vertical spacing

- public/logo.svg: amber coaster silhouette (lift hill + vertical loop +
camelback) on transparent background; used in header and README
- app/icon.tsx: PNG favicon via Next.js ImageResponse (works in all
browsers including Safari); renders simplified hill + loop on dark
rounded-square background
- app/page.tsx: logo img added next to "Thoosie Calendar" title in header
- README.md: logo displayed at top of document
- Remove app/icon.svg (replaced by icon.tsx → PNG)

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)

- Remove unused formatDate() from park page (replaced by formatShortDate)
- Remove unused date prop from DayCell component
- Change let to const for cellBorderRadius in ParkCard
- Change let to const for bg in ParkMonthCalendar

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
