A counter delta is booked at the reading that closes it. That is right at the
reporting cadence -- a monthly series books December against the 1 January
reading, which is what the reference sheet does -- and wrong after an outage.
Observed on Solar 1: 78 days of generation arrived as one July row, leaving
June looking like the array was switched off.
An interval containing two or more complete calendar months is now divided
across them in proportion to elapsed time. The meter recorded a total, not a
shape, so every row a split produces is marked Estimated. The sum is exact: the
final segment absorbs the rounding remainder, so a split never creates or
destroys energy.
Counting whole months *contained* rather than boundaries *crossed* is what
makes the rule safe. A monthly series contains exactly one whole month per
interval and is untouched, so the golden fixtures keep measuring the normalizer
rather than the splitter; and a reading landing hours late cannot tip the rule
and hand the new month a sliver. GapSplittingIsInertOnFixturesTests asserts the
rule declines to fire on every reference interval, so this cannot drift into
the oracle unnoticed.
Not apportioned: swap and reset amounts (explicit corrections booked at their
event -- apportioning one would rewrite a number the operator supplied), a
rejected decrease, and a zero delta, which would otherwise fan out into rows
that say nothing.
Segments are stamped at their end, keeping the existing convention that a row
records the period ending at its timestamp -- so nothing shifts relative to how
unsplit intervals are already labelled.

Reference-only secrets (SDD §6.4) meant adding a connector required editing a
file on the server and restarting the service. In practice that leads to the
token being pasted into the env-var *name* field, which fails with "environment
variable '<token>' is not set" and gives no hint what went wrong.
Add a second storage form, chosen per connector: type the secret in and it is
encrypted via ASP.NET Core data protection before it is stored. The env-var
reference stays as an equal alternative — this widens the choice rather than
replacing it. Exactly one form survives a save, so a stale secret cannot linger
and silently win; EndpointSecret.Resolve is the single resolution path.
The guarantee that matters is preserved: no plaintext in the database, so
pg_dump and JSON exports carry nothing usable. The trust boundary is stated
plainly in §6.4 — the key ring is on disk, so this protects against leaked
database content, not an attacker who already has the host, which is the same
boundary an env var has.
Details worth noting:
- Key ring defaults to /var/lib/metervault/keys, outside the app directory,
because the LXC updater republishes /opt/metervault on every update. Docker
gets a named volume. Overridable via MeterVault__DataProtectionKeyPath.
- Undecryptable ciphertext (key ring lost) falls back rather than throwing: an
ingestion worker on a timer should degrade, not crash.
- The stored secret is never sent to the browser; a blank field means
"unchanged", not "cleared".
- MQTT usernames are stored as-is — §6.4 covers tokens and passwords, and
encrypting a username would only blank the field on every edit.
- ExportService drops *_enc values: bound to the originating key ring, so
useless where an export would be restored. Expect to re-enter after a restore.
- HaConnectionTester now takes a resolved token, so the admin UI can test a
token that has been typed but not yet saved.
SDD §6.4 and §9 updated to describe both forms rather than contradict the code.

HomeAssistantWebSocketWorker holds a persistent state_changed subscription per HA endpoint that opts in via the connector's WebSocket toggle (HaEndpointConfig.UseWebSocket): auth handshake, subscribe, ingest in real time, capped-backoff reconnect. The REST poll worker skips WS endpoints so each is served once. HaWebSocketProtocol holds the pure handshake/parse logic. Verified by 11 protocol unit tests + a live integration test against an in-process fake HA server. CLAUDE.md updated.

Adds a meter hierarchy and a flow view: a downstream meter is a *subsection*
of an upstream one (not an addition), so you can see where a main meter's flow
divides — e.g. official water → garden, pool, other; grid/battery → all → car.
- MeterLink (schema + migration AddMeterLinks): a directed from→to flow edge.
Multi-parent allowed (a merge, e.g. grid + solar → house); multi-child is a
split. Cascade-deletes with either endpoint; unique + distinct-endpoint checks.
- FlowService: per energy type + period, builds a Sankey graph — nodes = meters
sized by consumption; link value = downstream meter's consumption, split
proportionally across multiple upstreams; unaccounted remainder under a meter
becomes a synthetic "Other" node; depth via topological longest-path.
- SankeyChart.razor: hand-rolled inline-SVG Sankey (ApexCharts has no Sankey
type) — columns by depth, nodes stacked by value, bezier ribbons sized by flow,
left→right, theme-aware, HTML-encoded labels, tooltips. Built as a MarkupString
to sidestep Razor's <text> element clash.
- /energy/{id} page (one per energy type): KPIs (consumption + cost), the flow
Sankey, and the meter list. NavMenu now lists a link per energy type
(Electricity, Water, Gas, …) loaded from the DB.
- Meters admin: cycle-safe "Sub-meter of (upstream meters)" multi-select
(descendants excluded to prevent cycles); reconciles meter_link rows on save.
- Reference data seeds a demo chain (Haus → Auto) so electricity flow shows
Haus dividing into Auto + Other.
Tests: FlowServiceTests (single-parent remainder; two-parent proportional
split); render test now asserts the flow chain + covers /energy/{id}. 69 Core +
47 Integration = 116 green. Live-verified: Haus 95,450 kWh → Auto 51,909 +
Other 43,541 (flow conserved), all 5 energy-type pages render.

Three requested phases.
1) Admin section (SDD §8.7) — MudBlazor inline-dialog CRUD, consistent pattern,
delete guards, snackbar feedback, shared Confirm helper:
- Energy types: create/edit/delete (blocks delete when meters reference it).
- Meters: create/edit/delete; recomputes consumption when mode/baseline
changes (NormalizationService over a fresh factory context, in a tx);
delete cascades data (consumption+readings are Restrict → removed first).
- A meter's ingest sources: manage on the meter-detail Sources tab
(add/edit/delete MQTT/Tasmota/HA sources with typed config).
- Tariffs: full CRUD (scope/component/value/validity).
- Cost categories: CRUD + member management (meter or energy-type members).
- Connectors: ingestion_endpoint CRUD (MQTT broker + Home Assistant);
secrets referenced by env-var name only, never stored.
- Settings: read-only effective-config view (settings are env-driven and
reproducible, so an editable form would change nothing — kept honest).
PV role is now editable on meters (MeterMeta.SetRole can clear a role).
2) Read Home Assistant — extracted a shared public HaEndpointConfig (was a
private record in the worker), added HaConnectionTester (powers the connector
"Test connection": checks base URL + env-resolved token, optionally reads one
entity). Configuring an HA connector + an HA source on a meter drives the
existing REST-poll worker end to end. (WebSocket push stays a future
optimization; REST poll already reads HA.)
3) Wiring/placeholder audit — swept every OnClick/Href: all handlers are real,
all internal links resolve to real routes, no TODO/stub/placeholder code.
Fixed one genuine gap: MainLayout had no drawer toggle, so the nav was
unreachable on narrow screens — added a hamburger button.
Tests: +6 (MeterMeta.SetRole role-removal; HaConnectionTester fail-closed
guard branches with a throwing HttpClientFactory proving no network on bad
config); render test now covers all admin routes. 69 Core + 45 Integration =
114 green. Live-verified in Docker: all admin pages 200, drawer toggle present,
Settings shows real effective config.

Complete the SDD §8 dashboard views that were deferred at the M5 boundary,
and fix a shipping bug that left the Docker demo empty.
Bug: "Load reference data" created meters/tank/tariffs but imported zero
readings in Docker. Root cause: sampledata/ was excluded by .dockerignore and
never copied into the build stage, so the App csproj's linked Content glob
resolved to nothing at publish time; ReferenceDataImporter then silently
skipped the missing CSVs after already writing its marker meter, leaving the
DB permanently "loaded" but empty.
- .dockerignore: stop excluding sampledata/
- Dockerfile: COPY sampledata/ into the build stage
- ReferenceDataImporter: fail-fast (validate CSVs exist before the marker
meter) and throw instead of silently skipping a missing file
- Program.cs + MeterVaultOptions: opt-in MeterVault__SeedReferenceData
(compose METERVAULT_SEED=true) for a one-command populated demo
New SDD §8 panels (read models in Infrastructure/Dashboard, Blazor pages):
- §8.4 Solar/PV (/solar): generation from GenerationCounter meters;
self-consumption / autarky % / self-consumption % / savings derived from
meters tagged total_load & grid_import via Meter.Meta role config
(MeterRoles/MeterMeta) — nothing hardcoded by name.
- §8.5 Oil/consumable (/consumables): tank level (cm→L calibrated), fill
gauge, deliveries log, burner runtime, effective L/h (fixed/empirical),
forecast-to-empty, tariff cost, monthly series.
- §8.6 Meter detail (/meters/{id}): raw readings, normalized consumption,
source status, tariff timeline, events, measured-vs-estimated markers.
- Reusable SeriesChart component; nav links; Meters list rows link to detail.
Tests: MeterMetaTests (Core, +10); DashboardRenderTests extended to assert the
three panel services compute real figures and the new routes render (108 total,
all green). Live-verified in Docker: seed imports 302 readings / 347 consumption
rows; panels render (generation 16,481 kWh, oil 3,967 L) cross-checking the DB.
