27-Feb-2026 — admin: complete environment setup with subdomain, email wiring, and password reset #146

build 502 — commit a54595e

Fix Fly.io shared IPv4 allocation using sharedIpAddress fallback for known GraphQL API bug
Wire notification configs to built-in processes (forgot-password, walks, expenses, contact-us)
Assign admin user to committee roles (membership, support) for email sender resolution
Register admin as Brevo sender during environment creation
Add admin password reset button to Modify Environment flow
Allow password reset route to bypass maintenance mode guard
Add seed endpoints for sample pages, notification configs, and Brevo templates
Extract shared helpers: toGroupShortName, cleanIncorrectPageContent, runMigrations, registerBrevoSender
Make notification config seeding idempotent with upsert pattern
Fix arrow-parens lint violations across all server TypeScript files

Backup & Restore and Environment Setup now check PLATFORM_ADMIN_ENABLED on init and display a consistent "Not Available" alert (icon + bold title) when the flag is absent, matching the alert style used across the admin section
Backup & Restore skips loading environments, backups, sessions and the WebSocket connection when the flag is absent, avoiding unnecessary API calls
Added the ngx-ramblers environment entry to the EnvironmentsConfig DB document with PLATFORM_ADMIN_ENABLED=true in its secrets block so the flag survives future deploys via loadSecretsForEnvironmentFromDatabase

Environment Setup routes now accept requests authenticated by either a valid admin JWT (member/content/file/walk/social/treasury/finance admin roles) or the x-setup-api-key header, enabling logged-in admins to use the page without a separate setup key
isAdminRequest() added to server routes — verifies the Bearer token with jsonwebtoken and checks any admin-role claim before granting access
EnvironmentSetupService gains a setupApiKey field and an opts getter; all HTTP calls now forward the key in x-setup-api-key when present
Component gains requiresApiKey / setupApiKeyValue / setupApiKeyEntered state and a submitSetupApiKey() method so the UI can prompt for the key when the server signals it is required (status.requiresApiKey)

and then loads environment defaults separately so a 401 on the defaults endpoint does not prevent the Ramblers API key from being pre-filled

EnvironmentDefaults model extended with ramblers.apiKey field
/defaults endpoint populates ramblers.apiKey from national.walksManager.apiKey in the system config so the Ramblers API key is offered as a default without manual entry

closeMigrationConnection() calls mongoose.disconnect() after running migrations, which left subsequent operations (seedBrevoTemplatesFromLocal -> configuredBrevo -> config.findOne) failing with "Client must be connected before running operations"
Added ensureMongoConnection() after initialiseDatabase() returns so mongoose reconnects to the main database before Brevo template population runs

New EnvironmentGitHubSecrets standalone component shows the GitHub CONFIGS_JSON secret staleness relative to the database, with per-environment diff detail (new / removed / changed fields) and a one-click Push button
GET /api/environment-setup/github/status compares DB environments against the live CONFIGS_JSON value; matches by name first then appName fallback to avoid cross-matching where multiple DB documents share the same fly.io app
POST /api/environment-setup/github/push pushes DB → GitHub directly without touching configs.json; after a successful push, process.env.CONFIGS_JSON is updated in-process so subsequent status checks reflect what was pushed
On first status check locally (no CONFIGS_JSON env var), the value is initialised from the DB — same runtime behaviour as production where fly.io injects it at startup — eliminating configs.json as a third piece of state
transformDatabaseToDeployConfig now filters out orphan DB environment documents (no flyio config), deduplicates by appName (first occurrence wins), and is exported for reuse in the status route
EnvironmentSettingsSubTab.GITHUB added; heading uses with-vendor-logo style with the GitHub FA brand icon; .thumbnail-heading.with-vendor-logo top offset corrected to -34px in frames.sass

gh CLI installed in Docker image so the GitHub Secrets panel can fetch secret metadata and push CONFIGS_JSON from the deployed environment
GH_TOKEN and PLATFORM_ADMIN_ENABLED=true set as fly.io secrets on the ngx-ramblers (staging) app to authenticate gh and enable the admin pages
