Splitting system messages out of the modal was right for payout receipts,
but it would have silenced two that a member genuinely loses money by
ignoring:
- "@someone is trying to buy. Link your wallet so it pays you" — a sale
is blocked right now, and the referral is lost permanently once it
routes to someone else.
- "You missed 43 POL on InstantAdPay" — a payout passed them by, and the
message explains exactly how to stop the next one doing the same.
So the dividing line is not system-versus-human, it is "does this need you
to do something". Those two become kind 'alert' and still interrupt; the
receipts stay kind 'notice' and stay in the inbox.
The modal no longer credits an alert to a person either. It was saying "A
message from @martbost" over machine-generated text, because system mail
is sent by member 1 at ADMIN_EMAIL. Alerts now read "Action needed on your
account".
Also reclassified "X is now in your line for good" as a notice — it is
good news about a referral the member gained, with nothing at stake.
qa/messages-notice.mjs now covers both lanes: 14 checks, including that an
alert interrupts and a flood of 25 receipts does not.

InstantAdPay — site
Membership advertising with immutable on-chain settlement. Zero-dependency Node server (RM Circle pattern): static pages + JSON API + SSE ledger.
Architecture
server.js— http server: pages,/api/*,/join/<id>sponsor links, SSE feedchain.js— contract reader + persistent event indexer (free public RPCs)auth.js— SIWE wallet sign-in (EIP-4361), sessions in the volumeaccounts.js— site-side records only (free members, last-touch sponsor attribution, handles). The CHAIN is the source of truth for money/credits.public/— landing, live ledger, member area; no client libraries
Chain flip (rehearsal → mainnet)
Everything chain-specific lives in data/config.json (volume):
{contract, chainId, chainName, explorer, rpcs, deployBlock}.
Defaults point at the Amoy rehearsal deployment. Launch = deploy the
mainnet contract, wipe accounts.json/sessions.json/chain-index.json,
PATCH /api/admin/chain with the mainnet values, set rehearsal:false via
/api/admin/site. Same code, different config.
Run
PORT=3100 node server.js # DATA_DIR defaults to ./data
Admin API auth: Authorization: Bearer $ADMIN_PASSWORD.
Spec: ../CONTRACT-SPEC.md (v1.0.3-frozen). Contracts: ../contracts/.
Chatbot knowledge is part of every change
chatbot.js answers members two ways: CANNED regex answers and systemPrompt() for the AI. Any
change that a member could ask about (a new pane, a rule, a price, a limit, a fix they noticed) is not
done until both are updated in the same commit, and KNOWLEDGE_DATE in chatbot.js is bumped. The QA
runner (bash qa/run.sh public) fails when a release note on the live site is newer than that date.
