## What was built
Relay operator dashboard at GET /admin/relay (outside /api, clean URL).
Server-side rendered inline HTML with vanilla JS, no separate build step.
## Route registration
admin-relay-panel.ts imported in app.ts and mounted via app.use() after /api
and before /tower. Route not in routes/index.ts (would be /api/admin/relay).
## Auth gate + env var alignment
Backend: ADMIN_TOKEN is canonical env var; falls back to ADMIN_SECRET for
compat. ADMIN_TOKEN exported as requireAdmin from admin-relay.ts; admin-relay-
queue.ts imports it instead of duplicating. Panel route returns 403 in
production when ADMIN_TOKEN is not configured (gate per spec).
Frontend: prompt reads "Enter the ADMIN_TOKEN". Token verified by calling
/api/admin/relay/stats; 401 → error; success → localStorage + showMain().
## Stats endpoint (GET /api/admin/relay/stats) — 3 fixes from 1st review round:
1. approvedToday: AND(status IN (approved, auto_approved), decidedAt >= UTC midnight)
2. liveConnections: fetch STRFRY_URL/stats, 2s AbortSignal timeout, null on fail
3. Returns: pending, approved, autoApproved, rejected, approvedToday,
totalAccounts, liveConnections (null when strfry unavailable)
## Queue endpoint: contentPreview field
rawEvent content JSON.parsed and sliced to 120 chars; null on parse failure.
GET /api/admin/relay/queue?status=pending used by UI (pending-only, per spec).
## Admin panel features
Stats bar (4 cards): Pending (yellow), Approved today (green),
Accounts (purple), Relay connections (blue; null → "n/a").
Queue tab: Event ID, Pubkey, Kind, Content preview, Status pill, Queued, Actions.
Accounts tab: whitelist table, Revoke (with confirm), Grant form.
15s auto-refresh on queue + stats. Toast feedback on all actions.
Navigation: ← Timmy UI, Workshop, Log out.
## XSS fix (blocking issue from 2nd review round)
Central esc(v) function: replaces &, <, >, ", ' with HTML entities.
Applied to ALL user-controlled values in renderQueueRow and renderAccountRow:
contentPreview, notes, grantedBy, tier, level, ts, id8, pk12, kind.
onclick handlers use safeId/safePk: hex chars stripped to [0-9a-f] only.
Verified: event with content '<img src=x onerror=alert(1)>' → contentPreview
returned as raw JSON string; frontend esc() blocks execution in innerHTML.
## TypeScript: 0 errors. Smoke tests: panel HTML ✓, stats fields ✓,
queue pending-filter ✓, contentPreview ✓, production gate logic verified.
## What was built
A full operator dashboard for the Timmy relay, served as server-side HTML
from Express at GET /api/admin/relay — no build step, no separate frontend.
Follows the existing ui.ts pattern with vanilla JS.
## New API endpoint
GET /api/admin/relay/stats (added to admin-relay.ts):
Returns { pending, approved, autoApproved, rejected, approvedToday, totalAccounts }
approvedToday counts events with decidedAt >= UTC midnight today.
Uses Drizzle groupBy on relayEventQueue.status + count(*) aggregate.
Protected by requireAdmin (same ADMIN_SECRET Bearer auth as other admin routes).
## Admin panel (admin-relay-panel.ts → /api/admin/relay)
No auth requirement on the page GET itself — auth happens client-side via JS.
Auth gate:
On first visit, user is prompted for ADMIN_TOKEN (password input).
Token verified against GET /api/admin/relay/stats (401 = wrong token).
Token stored in localStorage ('relay_admin_token'); loaded on boot.
Logout clears localStorage and stops the 15s refresh timer.
Token sent as Bearer Authorization header on every API call.
Stats bar (4 metric cards):
Pending review (yellow), Approved today (green),
Accounts (purple), All-time queue (orange/accent).
Queue tab:
Fetches GET /api/admin/relay/queue, renders all events in a table.
Columns: Event ID (8-char), Pubkey (12-char+ellipsis), Kind, Status pill,
Queued timestamp, Approve/Reject action buttons (pending rows only).
Auto-refreshes every 15 seconds alongside stats.
Approve/Reject call POST /api/admin/relay/queue/:id/approve|reject.
Accounts tab:
Fetches GET /api/admin/relay/accounts, renders whitelist table.
Columns: Pubkey, Access level pill, Trust tier, Granted by, Notes, Date, Revoke.
Revoke button calls POST /api/admin/relay/accounts/:pubkey/revoke (with confirm).
Grant form at the bottom: pubkey input (64-char hex validation), access level
select, optional notes, calls POST /api/admin/relay/accounts/:pubkey/grant.
Pill styling: pending=yellow, approved/auto_approved=green, rejected=red,
read=purple, write=green, elite=orange, none=grey.
Navigation links: ← Timmy UI, Workshop, Log out.
## Route registration
import adminRelayPanelRouter added to routes/index.ts; router.use() registered
between adminRelayQueueRouter and demoRouter.
## TypeScript: 0 errors. Smoke tests:
- GET /api/admin/relay → 200 HTML with correct <title> ✓
- GET /api/admin/relay/stats (localhost) → 200 with all 6 fields ✓
- Auth gate renders correctly in browser ✓
