The MCS-150 intake-completion email linked customers to /order/dot-compliance,
which is the sales/checkout page -- it ignores ?order= and asks the customer to
re-pick services and pay again, so they 'cannot enter any data' (Paul Wilson's
report). Link to the per-service intake wizard /order/<slug>?order=... instead,
which loads the paid order, pre-fills from the FMCSA census, and drops payment.
Also add a Trailers field to the DOT intake fleet section and wire it through to
the MCS-150 PDF Q26 trailer row, so carriers can update trucks AND trailers.
SC for-hire PROPERTY carriers (not passenger/HHG/hazwaste) register intrastate
via the SCDMV Certificate of Compliance (COC), not a PSC certificate. This adds:
- sc_coc_pdf_filler.fill_sc_coc(): fills the official SCDMV Form COC from
intake (business name, officers, physical/mailing address, phone), picks
New vs Renewal, and stamps the coverage class (E-L low-value / E-LC).
Field names in the source PDF are auto-generated + offset from their labels;
mapped here by verified on-page geometry. Verified by render.
- suggest_coverage_class(): E-L for low-value cargo (scrap/dump/aggregate),
else E-LC (safer default).
- gov_fee: SC intrastate fee corrected from $0 placeholder to the real $25
COC new-application fee (renewals $0), billed at cost.
The carrier's INSURER files the Form E (liability) + Form H (cargo, E-LC only)
directly with SCDMV; we collect the COC app + $25 and submit it.
Adds the previously-unmapped fields so every variant fills fully:
- Q25 hazmat C/S/B/NB matrix (HAZMAT_ROW_MAP x HAZMAT_COL_MAP, 156 boxes)
- MCS-150B states-of-operation checkboxes (full name or 2-letter code), HMSP
Hazard/Permit/Security radios, and accident count (32accidentNumber)
- MCS-150C intermodal equipment counts (20owned/leased/serviced) + correct
field renumbering (17dunbrad/18irs/19eMail) + USDOT Button + named-export
Reason/Mailing radios
- Structured fleet via intake['vehicles'] = {vehicle_type: {owned, term_leased,
trip_leased}} across all Q26 vehicle rows; non-CMV count; cell/fax; second
officer
- _set_button now resolves a candidate tuple against each field's actual export
states, so numeric (/0../4) and named (/Yes,/Biennial...) radios both work
verify_mcs150_variants.py exercises all three variants end-to-end: ALL PASS.
certifyBox is the Q29 Passenger Carrier Compliance Certification YES box
(page 3, y=530), not a general perjury checkbox. It was being checked
unconditionally, which wrongly marked freight/property carriers as passenger
carriers. Now only check it when the carrier is a passenger carrier; the
Q31 perjury declaration is made via the signature.
Fixes a batch of missing fields the FMCSA census does not provide and the
filler was mis-mapping:
- Corrected the question->field mapping to match the actual form: Q22 =
COMPANY OPERATIONS (interstate/intrastate, 22xBox), Q23 = OPERATION
CLASSIFICATIONS (for-hire/private/govt, 23xBox). These were swapped, and
the bogus entity-type->23xBox map (no entity-type question exists on this
form revision) was removed.
- Added proper radio-group handling for Reason for Filing (Biennial Update),
Mailing-address (Same as principal vs below), and Q28 USDOT-revoked, with
correct option indices (these are /0../n radios, not /Yes checkboxes; the
old code set them to /Yes and never selected the right option).
- Map interstate/intrastate from the FMCSA census carrierOperationCode, and
populate email/phone/mileage/cargo from intake.
- AcroForm checkbox/radio appearances use a ZapfDingbats glyph that
poppler/Preview fail to render (value set but box looks empty). Now stamp
an explicit X overlay into the page content for every 'on' box so it shows
in every viewer and in the faxed output.
The official MCS-150/150B/150C PDFs ship with 8 (150/150B) or 4 (150C)
FMCSA instruction/example pages before the actual fillable form. We were
generating + faxing/submitting all of them. Trimmed the source templates
down to the FORM pages only:
MCS-150 11 -> 3 pages (289 fields preserved)
MCS-150B 12 -> 4 pages (349 fields preserved)
MCS-150C 6 -> 2 pages (33 fields preserved)
The filler iterates writer.pages (no absolute index) and signature
anchors are derived dynamically via enumerate(reader.pages), so no
page-specific markup needed fixing. Removed one-off diag script.
- fill_mcs150 now uses auto_regenerate=True so pypdf writes appearance
streams for every text field. Preview/Chrome ignore /NeedAppearances and
were showing blank widgets over the values; generated /AP streams make
the text render in all viewers.
- New verify_mcs150.py reads each widget's /AP /N appearance stream (the
literal drawn glyphs) to confirm expected values actually render, since
the container has no OCR/raster tooling. Exits non-zero on any miss.
The MCS-150 biennial update re-confirms the carrier's existing FMCSA
record. Previously the PDF filler only had whatever the intake form
collected; rescued/sparse orders (or orders where the carrier's data
lives in FMCSA, not the intake) produced near-empty forms. Now we pull
the carrier census (legal name, address, EIN, fleet counts) from the
FMCSA carrier API and merge it under any customer-provided intake values
(customer edits win), so the form is pre-filled with the carrier's
current registered data. Refactored the FMCSA fetch into a shared
_fetch_fmcsa_carrier helper used by both enrichment and status check.
Customer saw the MCS-150 looking blank / 'data covered by the form fields': the
values were correctly written to the AcroForm /V, but pypdf left the template's
empty /AP appearance streams in place and NeedAppearances was false, so viewers
rendered the blank widget over the value. Setting AcroForm /NeedAppearances=true
makes viewers regenerate appearances from the values. (The missing signature was
a downstream effect of the separate fobj_put MinIO-upload bug, now fixed -- with
no PDF in MinIO the anchor extraction + signature stamping both failed.)
The Standard no-login CMS path needs an ORIGINAL ink signature on paper
(CMS-10114: 'Stamped, faxed or copied signatures will not be accepted'). This
adds a pipeline to redraw the provider's own captured strokes in real ink with a
pen on a CR-10 V2 (or any Marlin/GRBL machine) — original, in ink, never copied.
- migration 090: esign_records.signature_vector (JSONB stroke paths, 0..1).
- signing page now captures normalized stroke paths alongside the PNG; API
stores a size-bounded vector for drawn signatures.
- ink_signature_plotter.py (hardware-independent): fit strokes to the signature
anchor box, PDF-pt -> bed-mm via jig offset, emit Marlin/GRBL G-code (Z pen or
M280 servo/BLTouch), SVG toolpath preview, and render_signature_on_pdf (a
digital twin that proves the toolpath lands on the cert line). Gated serial
sender (dry_run default).
- ink_signature_cli.py: end-to-end load-record -> gcode+preview, --test-box jig
calibration, --plot to stream over USB.
- Corrected CMS-10114 signature anchor to sit inside the Section 4A signing cell
(above the bottom rule, below the label).
- docs/ink-signature-plotter.md documents the CR-10 retrofit + interpretive risk.
Tests: test_ink_signature.py 30/30, test_cms10114.py 27/27, test_paper_batch.py
15/15, API tsc clean, Astro build 58 pages.
Verified firsthand against the live CMS-10114 (Rev. 02/25, OMB 0938-0931):
- Section 1A confirms paper is valid for Change of Information (#2) AND
Reactivation (#4), not just initial enumeration. Resolves the UNCERTAIN flag.
- Current mailing address is CMS NPI Enumerator Services, Mail Stop DO-01-51,
7500 Security Blvd, Baltimore MD 21244. The old Fargo PO Box 6059 is retired;
corrected in mac_routing.NPI_ENUMERATOR + all docs.
- No electronic no-login equivalent exists for CMS (NPI Registry API is
read-only; PECOS/NPPES-IA require login), unlike FMCSA's ask.fmcsa ticket form.
So tiers stay: Standard=paper CMS-10114 (no login), Expedited=NPPES surrogate.
New: cms10114_pdf_filler.py fills the flat official form via text overlay
(reason checkbox + NPI + Section 2A identity + Section 4A cert name + signature
anchor); wired into npi_provider._generate_10114_for_signing for nppes-update.
Signed forms route to the NPI Enumerator via the existing daily batch.
Tests: test_cms10114.py 27/27, test_paper_batch.py 15/15, Astro build 58 pages.
Standard (no-login) CMS filings are mailed in one Priority Mail envelope per
destination agency, batched each postal working-day morning to save postage.
- migration 089: paper_filing_batches table + esign_records.paper_batch_id /
filing_destination_key (idempotent: a filing is batched at most once).
- batch_cover_sheet.py: per-agency cover sheet (sender/dest/date/manifest) +
merged print-job PDF (cover + all enclosed signed filings).
- daily_paper_batch.py worker: gather signed+unbatched cms855/cms10114 filings,
group by destination (MAC by state via mac_routing; Fargo for CMS-10114),
build cover+merged PDF per agency, persist batch, mark filings batched.
Self-gates on postal working days (skips weekends + federal/USPS holidays).
Phase 1 = human prints+mails; phase 2 = wire print-mail API.
- worker-crons: pw-paper-batch systemd timer (Mon-Fri 13:30 UTC, self-gated).
- test_paper_batch.py: 15/15 pass (working-day gating, routing, cover+merge).
Copy: drop paper/electronic/fax framing across the revalidation + enrollment
marketing pages and the order-confirmation email; present two service tiers:
- Standard filing (no CMS account; we prepare CMS-855, you sign, we submit to MAC)
- Expedited filing (CMS I&A surrogate access; same-day PECOS filing + tracking)
Internal worker todos + the _STANDARD_FILING_SLUGS identifier updated to match.
New scripts/test_healthcare_e2e.py validates the whole order line (slug
consistency x6 places, price agreement, intake field collection+enforcement,
worker dispatch, handler execution producing CMS-855 PDF+anchor, free-tool
action_urls). 45 checks.
Bugs found + fixed by the test:
- medicare-enrollment requires practice_state server-side but the wizard never
enforced it -> orders could be paid then stall. Wizard now requires it.
- determine_form_type defaulted org NPIs to the individual 855I because
enumeration_type is never collected -> wrong form, CMS rejection. Now does a
live NPPES lookup (safe 855I fallback).
- cms855_pdf_filler.py: fills official CMS-855I/B/O/A AcroForms from intake
(name, NPI, DOB, cert-page printed name) and records the signature anchor at
the form's official /Sig box so the e-sign stamper lands on the cert line.
- npi_provider handlers (revalidation/reactivation/enrollment) now generate the
paper CMS-855, upload it to MinIO, request_esign with anchors, and email the
signing link. Human completes/verifies + USPS Priority Mails to the MAC.
- scripts/Dockerfile: copy the official CMS-855I/B/O/A forms into the image.
Drop the two self-listings (Performance West C-TPA and supervisor training) and
the National Drug Screening / NDS entries from the Suggested Vendors panels.
The non-endorsement disclaimer (which still names Performance West) is unchanged.
- Add a one-page 'DER Quick-Start Checklist' tear-off as the first content page
(set-up-once / every-hire / ongoing checkboxes, each pointing to the relevant
section or form).
- Add a two-column 'Suggested Vendors & Resources' directory page: C-TPA/
consortium, collection sites & labs, MRO, SAP, supervisor training, and (mode-
aware) FMCSA Clearinghouse or DOT resources, plus employee help lines. Marked
as examples not endorsements; mode-aware.
- Remove forced page breaks between consecutive content sections (now a light
section rule) so they flow continuously; page breaks kept only for the cover,
quick-start, TOC, each form, the vendor page, regulations, and the addendum.
- New builder helpers: section_rule(), checkbox(), two_col_panels().
Adds the real-world know-how a first-time DER needs beyond the bare regs:
- Owner-operators / one-driver companies (must use a consortium; cannot self-test
or self-select) — the most misunderstood case.
- Audits & penalties: what the new-entrant safety audit asks for and the
consequences of no program (civil penalties, failed audit, out-of-service).
- Problem test results: dilute, shy bladder, cancelled test, split-specimen.
- Prescriptions / marijuana / CBD (marijuana prohibited regardless of state law;
CBD trap; route medical questions to the MRO).
- What counts as a refusal (treated as a positive).
- Costs & timeline expectations.
- DER do's and don'ts (act same-day, keep records separate/confidential, never
tip off a random selection, don't interpret results yourself).
Customers (the DER) had no concrete how-to for onboarding/enrolling drivers or
what information to collect. Add:
- Section 1 'Enrolling a driver (new-hire onboarding)' subsection: exact info to
collect, the onboarding sequence (collect info, sign Forms A/B, Clearinghouse
query, prior-employer inquiry, add to C-TPA pool, pre-employment test, wait for
MRO negative), and a driver-removal note.
- Form G — Driver Enrollment & Covered-Employee Roster: per-driver enrollment
block (name, DOB, SSN last4, CDL #/state, contact, hire date, test result,
Clearinghouse/prior-employer status) plus a roster table for the covered pool.
- TOC, email, and handler text updated A-F -> A-G.
- Rewrite dot_da_binder_generator.py to emit an editable .docx (was reportlab PDF)
so carriers/counsel can review and adapt the program. ~4000 words, 10 sections.
- Render all six required forms (A-F); previously only A, D, E existed. Each form
starts on its own page (page break) and fills a page.
- Mode-aware policy text for FMCSA/FRA/PHMSA/FTA/FAA/USCG with correct CFR parts
and random-testing rates; optional single-state Drug-Free Workplace addendum
(federal DOT program is nationwide; only the optional DFWP addendum is state-keyed).
- Handler now outputs .docx instead of .pdf.
- job_server instant-delivery: attach DOCX (correct MIME) as well as PDF, and use
DOT-specific email copy + CTA instead of the FCC/telecom boilerplate.
Turn the DOT Drug & Alcohol Compliance Program into an automated
instant-delivery deliverable: when a carrier orders, we generate a
complete, print-ready PDF binder and email it (no admin step).
The binder (dot_da_binder_generator.py) bundles everything a small
carrier needs under 49 CFR Part 382 + Part 40:
- How to manage the program (DER setup + annual operations)
- Written drug & alcohol testing policy for employees
- The six DOT test scenarios + triggers
- Random testing / consortium (C-TPA) instructions
- Supervisor reasonable-suspicion training + live/online access
- Violations, SAP access, return-to-duty / follow-up
- EAP / rehab / treatment resources (SAMHSA, 988, locator, ODAPC)
- Recordkeeping retention schedule
- Ready-to-use forms (acknowledgment, reasonable-suspicion,
post-accident decision worksheet)
- Regulation citations
- Optional state Drug-Free Workplace addendum
Policy-variant selection: FMCSA (Part 382) is the trucking default;
honors an explicit dot_da_mode override for FRA/PHMSA/FTA/FAA/USCG.
New DrugAlcoholProgramHandler returns the binder PDF; slug added to
INSTANT_DELIVERY_SLUGS so job_server emails it automatically. Slug
rerouted from MCS150UpdateHandler (was admin-assisted enrollment) and
re-priced as a discountable own-deliverable (no passthrough cost).
Tests: scripts/tests/test_dot_da_binder.py (FMCSA sections, PHMSA+state
addendum, all-modes render) — passing.
- filing_attestation.py: generates cover page attesting PW submitted document
to recipient with date/time stamp, contact info, and digital signature
- fax_sender.py: sends PDFs via VitalPBX API, polls for delivery, generates
attested copy for customer records
- dot-lookup.ts: if DOT has pending MCS-150 order, show green 'UPDATE SUBMITTED'
instead of red 'OVERDUE' in compliance checker
- requirements.txt: add pyhanko + cryptography for PDF digital signatures
Uses pypdf to fill the official MCS-150/150B/150C fillable PDFs.
Maps intake data to 289 form fields (text + checkboxes).
Supports form type detection (standard vs hazmat vs intermodal).
Produces ready-to-fax PDF from intake data.

PayPal capture was defaulting to canada_crtc_orders table for all
non-formation orders. Now properly routes compliance_batch orders
to compliance_orders table with batch_id lookup. Also infers
order type from ID prefix (CB-=batch, CO-=compliance, FO-=formation).
MCS-150 form generator: produces DOCX with fax cover sheet + filled
MCS-150 form for faxing to FMCSA at 202-366-3477.

The checklist was a manual-process artifact that listed what info the
client needed to gather. Since all data is now collected through the
intake wizard and CDR upload, the checklist is unnecessary. Removed
from the 499-A handler's prep packet and deleted the 1,326-line
generator file.

_styles.py: Centralized typography, spacing, and formatting for all
26 DOCX generators. Calibri 9.5pt body, 1.15 line spacing, navy
headings, consistent signature blocks, page numbers, PW footer.
All generators will be migrated to use this instead of defining
their own styles.
Campaign tools:
- campaign_template.html: Styled email template for Listmonk campaigns
