## What was built
### DB schema
- `timmy_config` table: key/value store for the generosity pool balance
- `free_tier_grants` table: immutable audit log of every Timmy-absorbed request
- `jobs.free_tier` (boolean) + `jobs.absorbed_sats` (integer) columns
### FreeTierService (`lib/free-tier.ts`)
- Per-tier daily sats budgets (new=0, established=50, trusted=200, elite=1000)
— all env-var overridable
- `decide(pubkey, estimatedSats)` → `{ serve: free|partial|gate, absorbSats, chargeSats }`
— checks pool balance AND identity daily budget atomically
- `credit(paidSats)` — credits POOL_CREDIT_PCT (default 10%) of every paid
work invoice back to the generosity pool
- `recordGrant(pubkey, reqHash, absorbSats)` — DB transaction: deducts pool,
updates identity daily absorption counter, writes audit row
- `poolStatus()` — snapshot for metrics/monitoring
### Route integration
- `POST /api/jobs` (eval → work flow): after eval passes, `freeTierService.decide()`
intercepts. Free → skip invoice, fire work directly. Partial → discounted invoice.
Gate (anonymous/new tier/pool empty) → unchanged full-price flow.
- `POST /api/sessions/:id/request`: after compute, free-tier discount applied to
balance debit. Session balance only reduced by `chargeSats`; absorbed portion
comes from pool.
- Pool credited on every paid work completion (both jobs and session paths).
- Response fields: `free_tier: true`, `absorbed_sats: N` when applicable.
### GET /api/estimate
- Lightweight pre-flight cost estimator; no payment required
- Returns: estimatedSats, btcPriceUsd, tokenEstimate, identity.free_tier decision
(if valid nostr_token provided), pool.balanceSats, pool.dailyBudgets
### Tests
- All 29 existing testkit tests pass (0 failures)
- Anonymous/new-tier users hit gate path correctly (verified manually)
- Pool seeds to 10,000 sats on first boot
## Architecture notes
- Free tier decision happens BEFORE invoice creation for jobs (save user the click)
- Partial grant recorded at invoice creation time (reserves pool capacity proactively)
- Free tier for sessions decided AFTER compute (actual cost known, applied to debit)
- Pool crediting is fire-and-forget (non-blocking)
- New nostr_identities DB table (pubkey, trust_score, tier, interaction_count, sats_absorbed_today, last_seen)
- nullable nostr_pubkey FK on sessions + jobs tables; schema pushed
- TrustService: getTier, getOrCreate, recordSuccess/Failure, HMAC token (issue/verify)
- Soft score decay (lazy, on read) when identity absent > N days
- POST /api/identity/challenge + POST /api/identity/verify (NIP-01 sig verification)
- GET /api/identity/me — look up trust profile by X-Nostr-Token
- POST /api/sessions + POST /api/jobs accept optional nostr_token; bind pubkey to row
- GET /sessions/:id + GET /jobs/:id include trust_tier in response
- recordSuccess/Failure called after session request + job work completes
- X-Nostr-Token added to CORS allowedHeaders + exposedHeaders
- TIMMY_TOKEN_SECRET set as persistent shared env var
- scripts/bitcoin-ln-node/setup.sh: one-shot installer for Bitcoin Core (pruned mainnet), LND, and LNbits on Apple Silicon Mac. Generates secrets, writes configs, installs launchd plists for auto-start.
- scripts/bitcoin-ln-node/start.sh: start all services via launchctl; waits for RPC readiness and auto-unlocks LND wallet.
- scripts/bitcoin-ln-node/stop.sh: graceful shutdown (lncli stop → bitcoin-cli stop).
- scripts/bitcoin-ln-node/status.sh: full health check (Bitcoin sync %, LND channels/balance, LNbits HTTP, bore tunnel). Supports --json mode for machine consumption.
- scripts/bitcoin-ln-node/expose.sh: opens bore tunnel from LNbits port 5000 to bore.pub for Replit access.
- scripts/bitcoin-ln-node/get-lnbits-key.sh: fetches LNbits admin API key and prints Replit secret values.
- artifacts/api-server/src/routes/node-diagnostics.ts: GET /api/admin/node-status (JSON) and /api/admin/node-status/html — Timmy self-diagnoses its LNbits/LND connectivity and reports issues.
Implement session-based API endpoints for creating, managing, and interacting with pre-funded sessions, including deposit and top-up invoice generation, macaroon authentication, and per-request debiting of compute costs.

Pay a Lightning invoice → Timmy auto-provisions a Bitcoin full node on DO.
New: lib/db/src/schema/bootstrap-jobs.ts
- bootstrap_jobs table: id, state, amountSats, paymentHash, paymentRequest,
dropletId, nodeIp, tailscaleHostname, lnbitsUrl, sshPrivateKey,
sshKeyDelivered (bool), errorMessage, createdAt, updatedAt
- States: awaiting_payment | provisioning | ready | failed
- Payment data stored inline (no FK to jobs/invoices tables — separate entity)
- db:push applied to create table in Postgres
New: artifacts/api-server/src/lib/provisioner.ts
- ProvisionerService: stubs when DO_API_TOKEN absent, real otherwise
- Stub mode: generates a real RSA 4096-bit SSH keypair via ssh-keygen,
returns RFC 5737 test IP + fake Tailscale hostname after 2s delay
- Real mode: upload SSH public key to DO → generate Tailscale auth key →
create DO droplet with cloud-init user_data → poll for public IP (2 min)
- buildCloudInitScript(): non-interactive bash that installs Docker + Tailscale
+ UFW + Bitcoin Knots via docker-compose; joins Tailscale if authkey provided
- provision() designed as fire-and-forget (void); updates DB to ready/failed
New: artifacts/api-server/src/routes/bootstrap.ts
- POST /api/bootstrap: create job + LNbits invoice, return paymentRequest
- GET /api/bootstrap/🆔 poll-driven state machine
* awaiting_payment: checks payment, fires provisioner on confirm
* provisioning: returns progress message
* ready: delivers credentials; SSH private key delivered once then cleared
* failed: returns error message
- Stub mode message includes the exact /dev/stub/pay URL for easy testing
- nextSteps array guides user through post-provision setup
Updated: artifacts/api-server/src/lib/pricing.ts
- Added bootstrapFee field reading BOOTSTRAP_FEE_SATS env var (default 10000)
- calculateBootstrapFeeSats() method
Updated: artifacts/api-server/src/routes/index.ts
- Mounts bootstrapRouter
Updated: replit.md
- Documents all 7 new env vars (DO_API_TOKEN, DO_REGION, DO_SIZE, etc.)
- Full curl-based flow example with annotated response shape
End-to-end verified in stub mode: POST → pay → provisioning → ready (SSH key)
→ second GET clears key and shows sshKeyNote
Integrate a new testkit endpoint and update package.json scripts to enable automated testing via `pnpm test` and `pnpm test:prod`, including a new test case for request body size limits.

OpenAPI spec (lib/api-spec/openapi.yaml)
- Added POST /jobs, GET /jobs/{id}, GET /demo endpoints
- Added schemas: CreateJobRequest, CreateJobResponse, JobStatusResponse,
InvoiceInfo, JobState, DemoResponse, ErrorResponse
- Ran codegen: generated CreateJobBody, GetJobResponse, RunDemoQueryParams etc.
Jobs router (artifacts/api-server/src/routes/jobs.ts)
- POST /jobs: validates body, creates LNbits eval invoice, inserts job +
invoice in a DB transaction, returns { jobId, evalInvoice }
- GET /jobs/🆔 fetches job, calls advanceJob() helper, returns state-
appropriate payload (eval/work invoice, reason, result, errorMessage)
- advanceJob() state machine:
- awaiting_eval_payment: checks LNbits, atomically marks paid + advances
state via optimistic WHERE state='awaiting_eval_payment'; runs
AgentService.evaluateRequest, branches to awaiting_work_payment or rejected
- awaiting_work_payment: same pattern for work invoice, runs
AgentService.executeWork, advances to complete
- Any agent/LNbits error transitions job to failed
Demo router (artifacts/api-server/src/routes/demo.ts)
- GET /demo?request=...: in-memory rate limiter (5 req/hour per IP)
- Explicit guard for missing request param (coerce.string() workaround)
- Calls AgentService.executeWork directly, returns { result }
Dev router (artifacts/api-server/src/routes/dev.ts)
- POST /dev/stub/pay/:paymentHash: marks stub invoice paid in-memory
- Only mounted when NODE_ENV !== 'production'
Route index updated to mount all three routers
replit.md: documented full curl flow with all 6 steps, demo endpoint,
and dev stub-pay trigger
End-to-end verified with curl:
- Full flow: create → eval pay → evaluating → work pay → executing → complete
- Error cases: 400 on missing body/param, 404 on unknown job
