Closes the data gap for orders that bypass the full intake (e.g. the DOT
compliance-remediation pipeline) and for all MCS-150 variants:
- Worker intake-completeness gate (mcs150_update): before filling, check the
customer-required operational fields the FMCSA census cannot supply
(operation classification, cargo, CURRENT annual mileage, email; plus
signer/address for new-registration/reactivation, and states-of-operation
for 150B hazmat). If missing, email the customer a census-pre-filled intake
link and hold the order at fulfillment_status='awaiting_intake' with an admin
todo, instead of fabricating a blank filing. The existing intake PUT endpoint
already re-dispatches the worker on submit, so filing auto-resumes.
- Intake wizard (Wizard.astro): when resuming ?order=CO-xxx for a DOT/MCS order,
seed still-empty fields from the FMCSA census (name/address/fleet/interstate)
so the customer only confirms the operational details.
- /api/v1/dot/census now also returns total_drivers + a normalized
carrier_operation_code for the prefill.
- MCS150Step.astro extended to collect every field the filler needs across all
variants: mailing address, cdl_drivers, primary_vehicle_type,
reason_for_filing, usdot_revoked, cell/fax, hazmat-safety-permit block
(needs_hmsp, operating states, security plan), and intermodal-equipment
provider counts; all prefill from intake_data.
verify_mcs150_variants.py covers 150/150B/150C end-to-end (ALL PASS).
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.
Two reported bugs, plus two related ones found while tracing:
1. WRONG PRODUCT (Stripe showed 'FCC setup package' for a trucking order): the
trucking new-carrier form reused the slug 'new-carrier-bundle', which is the
TELECOM VoIP onboarding bundle (FRN+499+RMD+CPNI+CALEA, $1799). So trucking
customers were charged the telecom product/price and saw FCC on their receipt.
Added a distinct 'dot-new-carrier-bundle' (USDOT+MC+BOC-3+MCS-150+Drug&Alcohol,
$599 + FMCSA gov fees) and pointed the trucking page at it.
2. ACH 500 error: the Stripe session requested the Financial Connections
'balances' permission, which isn't activated on the account -> Stripe rejected
the whole session (invalid_request_error). Removed 'balances' (+prefetch); we
only need 'payment_method' to collect+charge the bank account.
Also fixed (found while tracing):
3. The telecom new-carrier-bundle's BUNDLE_COMPONENTS listed TRUCKING slugs by
mistake (copy/paste) -- corrected to its real FCC components.
4. The trucking page offered llc-formation / corp-formation / foreign-qual which
did not exist in the catalog (batch would 400). Added llc-formation +
corp-formation; remapped foreign-qual -> foreign-qualification-single.
Catalog regenerated (66 -> 69 services), drift-check + tsc clean.
High-friction conversion points (payment step, review step, order intro) had
almost no trust reinforcement at the moment of payment. Adds a shared,
regulator-agnostic CheckoutTrustBand component used across all four verticals:
- Payment step: 'full' variant -- money-back-if-we-fail-to-file guarantee +
256-bit TLS / Stripe / SOC 2 / PCI / fixed-price security badges + the right
'not affiliated with <agency>' disclaimer for the vertical.
- Review step: 'compact' variant -- guarantee + disclaimer (no badges).
- Order intro (VerticalOrderHeader, shared by all 49 order pages): thin green
'Secure checkout / Fixed price / Money-back guarantee' bar.
Guarantee copy is a real promise (full refund if we cannot file), worded so it
never overpromises a regulatory outcome (agency approval is not ours to give).
Vertical is inferred from the intake-step list via slugVertical() (single
source of truth, no hand-maintained slug table), with an explicit corporate
slug set since corporate services share the generic 'entity' step. Note: the
'dc_agent' step is the telecom D.C. process-agent designation, not corporate.
Also fixes two pre-existing mislabeled order-page headers surfaced by an
exhaustive header-vs-disclaimer audit: rmd-filing (Robocall Mitigation DB) and
new-carrier-bundle (VoIP carrier onboarding) are telecom, not healthcare/
trucking.
1. Email: add a 'Problem with your order? We're here to help' support band to
the shared htmlEmail() footer, so EVERY transactional email (confirmation,
portal link, receipts) has a prominent 'Get help with your order' button
linking to /contact. Less silent frustration -> fewer chargebacks.
2. NPI order form: entering a 10-digit NPI now auto-fills provider name, practice
state, and specialty from the live NPPES lookup (same API as the free
compliance-check tool), with a 'Found: <name>' confirmation. Only fills empty
fields so it never clobbers edits.
3. NPI order form: read ?npi= from the URL so the email 'Start my revalidation'
click lands with the NPI prefilled and the rest auto-filled (was being
ignored entirely before).
4. Support FAB: add the floating help button + panel to 27 static public pages
that were missing it (order, portal, trucking, survey, upload pages), so help
is one click away everywhere.
Skepticism ("is this even real?") is the top objection. The data IS accurate
(verified our subscribers' NPIs match the official CMS Revalidation Due Date List
exactly), so this is a credibility-presentation fix:
1. Email: replace the plain detail row with an "Official record - CMS Medicare
Revalidation Due Date List" card (NPI, legal name, due date, days overdue)
plus a "Verify on CMS.gov" button. Clearly labeled as our presentation of
public CMS data, not a CMS screenshot (no impersonation).
2. API: npi/lookup now pulls the revalidation due date LIVE from the public CMS
dataset (data.cms.gov) instead of the empty local table, and returns a
revalidation{ due_date, source, cms_legal_name, verify_url } proof object.
3. Tool: /tools/npi-compliance-check shows a live "official record" card with a
self-verify link when CMS returns a due date.
Builder now stores reval_due_date/days_overdue as separate attribs for the card
(existing 194 subscribers backfilled from their detail string).
Previously two hand-maintained price lists (API COMPLIANCE_SERVICES + site
SERVICE_META) drifted apart -- that is how the healthcare +$200 raise charged
$399 while displaying $599. Eliminate the drift class entirely:
- Move the catalog to api/src/service-catalog.ts (the authority; checkout
charges from it). compliance-orders.ts imports it.
- scripts/gen-service-catalog.mjs generates site/src/lib/service-catalog.generated.ts
from the API source. intake_manifest.ts re-exports SERVICE_META from it, so all
~60 site pages keep working unchanged.
- deploy.sh regenerates + drift-checks before building (site build context is
./site only and cannot read ../api, so generation happens host-side).
- scripts/check-service-catalog-drift.mjs fails the build if the generated file
ever diverges from the API (verified: passes aligned, fails on mismatch).
To change a price now, edit ONE file: api/src/service-catalog.ts.
- NpiIntakeStep: add positively-framed 'can you grant electronic I&A Surrogate
access?' question for all filing slugs (reval/reactivation/nppes-update/
enrollment/bundle). Optional, never required, never mentions paper; captured
as intake_data.surrogate_access (yes/no/blank). Astro build green (58 pages).
- npi_provider.py: surface the surrogate answer in the admin todo so fulfillment
knows EXPEDITED (online via surrogate) vs STANDARD (e-sign + daily mail batch).
- Verified Standard(no-login)/Expedited(surrogate) matrix from official CMS-855
PDFs (docs/healthcare-filing-tiers-verified.md): reactivation+revalidation are
855I paper-to-MAC reasons, original-signature, routed by state; sig may not be
delegated; 855B needs PECOS app fee.
- Add scripts/workers/mac_routing.py: state->MAC routing (all 56 jurisdictions,
12 destinations) for envelope addressing + daily batch grouping. Addresses
marked VERIFY before live mail.
- npi_provider.py: fix access strings to two-tier framing; NPPES update/reactivation
no longer 'online-only'; note 855B fee.
- checkout.ts + service pages: strip client-facing mechanics & the paper-vs-tier
choice; surrogate is the only optional, positively-framed ask (faster, never
required, never share password).
The site header / Services mega-dropdown was duplicated across two render
systems (Astro pages via Base.astro->nav.html, and ~80 pre-rendered static
public/**/index.html pages each embedding their own copy). They had drifted
into 5 different variants (missing 'New Carrier Setup', misplaced Healthcare
column, NEW vs FREE badges, em-dash encoding differences), so
dev.performancewest.net, the order pages, and the rest of the site disagreed.
- Make site/src/partials/nav.html the single source of truth (adopts the most
complete variant).
- Add scripts/sync_nav.py to rewrite every static page's <nav> block from
nav.html (idempotent; --check guards against drift in CI/deploy).
- Run the sync automatically in deploy.sh and scripts/deploy-dev.sh.
- Deprecate scripts/inject_healthcare_nav.py (now delegates to sync_nav.py).
- Neutralize the broken no-op SiteNav.astro component.
All 80 headers + the Astro-built order pages now render the identical dropdown.
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).
- order-confirmation email presents both filing methods: paper CMS-855 (no
account needed, client e-signs one page, we print+mail to their MAC) and
I&A surrogacy (faster, needs CMS account). NPPES-only services note that
surrogacy is required (web-only).
- npi_provider handlers record the access model per service in admin todos.
- marketing copy leads with the lowest-friction paper option.
- 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.
Item 2 of the trucking state-authorization plan.
- compliance-orders.ts: populate gov_fee_label for every state-trucking
service so the variable, billed-at-cost government charges (apportioned
IRP, IFTA decals, NY HUT, CT HUF, weight-distance, CA MCP+CARB, OS/OW
permits, bundle) are disclosed at checkout. price_cents stays the flat
service fee; gov fees pass through at cost.
- migration 086: compliance_orders.fulfillment_status state machine
(authorization_required -> authorization_signed -> awaiting_customer_
delegation -> awaiting_secure_credentials -> awaiting_government_fee_
approval -> awaiting_insurance_filing -> ready_to_file ->
filed_waiting_state -> completed) + fulfillment_status_at
- state_trucking.py: FULFILLMENT_* constants + _set_fulfillment_status();
gate sets authorization_required on pause, authorization_signed on
resume, ready_to_file once the filing todo is queued
- TruckingValueNotice.astro: 'What's included & what's billed at cost'
disclosure with the authorization/delegation explanation
Astro hoists multiple step scripts from Wizard even when the step is not
rendered on the current order page. Several steps bound DOM elements at load
time with no presence check, causing null addEventListener errors on unrelated
order pages.
Add step-presence guards to the obvious offenders used by the shared wizard:
IccImportStep, Block6CertStep, WirelessStep, BundledServiceStep, CPNIStep,
and LNPARegionStep.
- Guard PaymentStep DOM bindings so its hoisted script no longer throws on
pages without a payment step.
- Remove the correct wizard nav element on successful intake submit
(pw-wizard-nav, not the nonexistent pw-wizard-footer).
The cold-visitor Finish flow created the order then called Stripe Checkout
directly, which is gated on intake_data_validated=true and returned 422
INTAKE_NOT_VALIDATED. Now call POST /compliance-orders/:n/validate between
create and checkout (matching the token-order flow), and surface any missing
required fields to the user instead of a raw HTTP error.
Add TruckingValueNotice on the 14 state trucking order pages. Each page now
shows, near the price:
- 'You already owe this' reframe: the tax/fee is a liability the moment the
carrier operates in the state; we do not create it.
- Per-program 'how you protect and recover money' bullets (IFTA fuel-tax
credits/refunds, IRP apportionment vs trip permits, avoided penalties,
citations, out-of-service, and protected operating revenue).
- 'Is this a tax write-off?' section: BOTH our service fee AND the state
tax/fee paid are deductible business expenses (IRC 162), with the exact
return line per entity type (Schedule C / 1120 / 1120-S / 1065), mirroring
the telecom TaxDeductibilityNotice pattern. Fuel taxes noted as part of
fuel cost.
Not tax advice; disclaimer included.
- Wizard Finish button: for visitors with no token/order (e.g. arriving via a
campaign ?dot= link), create the compliance order from collected intake data
and redirect to Stripe Checkout, instead of silently doing nothing.
- StateTrucking: Operating States no longer required; single-state/intrastate
carriers can finish (relabeled 'Other Operating States (if any)').
- build_trucking_campaigns: per-state programs (weight_tax/emissions) now derive
the CTA landing page from the deficiency flag's state suffix (e.g.
state_weight_tax_OR -> OR), not the carrier base state, so a GA-based carrier
flagged for OR weight-mile tax links to the OR page (not a mismatched one).
Campaign CTA buttons link to /order/<slug>?dot=1234567. Add a fast local-only
GET /api/v1/dot/census endpoint (vs the heavy 12s live /dot/lookup) and a ?dot=
branch in the Wizard that seeds intake_data from the carrier's cached FMCSA
census record (name, email, base state, city/street/zip, power units). The
existing StateTrucking step already prefills its inputs from intake_data, so the
form now shows up pre-populated. Best-effort: only fills empty fields, never
blocks the form, never overwrites visitor input.
Add /order/{irp-registration,ifta-application,ifta-quarterly,or-weight-mile-tax,
ny-hut-registration,ky-kyu-registration,nm-weight-distance,ct-highway-use-fee,
ca-mcp-carb,state-dot-registration,intrastate-authority,osow-permit,
state-trucking-bundle,hazmat-phmsa,state-emissions,usdot-reactivation}.
Each renders the slug-gated state-trucking intake wizard. Site builds 48 pages,
new routes verified to render correct intake sections.
Cross-references every DOT/state/hazmat slug across COMPLIANCE_SERVICES,
REQUIRED_FIELDS, SERVICE_META, INTAKE_MANIFEST, and SERVICE_HANDLERS, and
verifies every required field is collectible by its assigned intake steps.
Caught + fixed missing usdot-reactivation SERVICE_META entry. 24/24 pass.
Adds Tawk_API.onLoad mobile guard (max-width 768px -> hideWidget) in shared
footer snippet and current built pages so mobile browsers no longer get the
proactive text bubble covering content.

Gap: dot-registration (new USDOT=MCS-150) routed through intake but never asked
for photo ID; usdot-reactivation, emergency-temporary-authority, carrier-closeout
(final MCS-150 + authority revocation), entity-dissolution, and entity-upgrade-
bundle weren't wired to collect it at all.
- intake_manifest: route usdot-reactivation, ETA, carrier-closeout,
entity-dissolution through the dot-intake step
- DOTIntakeStep DOT_SECTIONS: add dot-sec-photo-id for dot-registration and all
the above (operations + photo ID)
