# Loyalty Phase 7.0 — Enterprise Validation & Self-Heal Audit

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Date | 2026-07-25 |
| Scope | Phase 7.0 foundation only (no Phase 7.1) |
| Service | `loyalty-service` / `loyalty_db` / port 8004 |
| Test result | **52 passed** |

## Scores (0–100)

| Area | Score | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Architecture | **97** | ADR-001/003/006/011 aligned; independent of CRM; contracts-only providers; no 7.1 residue |
| Code Quality | **94** | Integrity mapping, JSON-safe audit, null reject, ordered lists, DTO `extra=forbid` |
| Security | **93** | Auth/permission trees; production credential/debug fail-closed; no DB error leakage |
| Performance | **90** | Tenant/status/tier/outbox + default-program partial unique index |
| Documentation | **95** | Phase doc, ADR, registry, API/event catalogs, audit report refreshed |

**Overall production-readiness for Phase 7.0 foundation: Pass**

## Test Coverage Summary

| Category | Status |
| --- | --- |
| Unit / business rules | Pass |
| Repository / tenant filter | Pass |
| Service / API flows | Pass |
| Permission definitions + tree inheritance | Pass |
| Security (401/403/invalid tenant) | Pass |
| Tenant isolation | Pass |
| Migration metadata | Pass |
| Architecture / dependency | Pass |
| Documentation validation | Pass |
| Performance (index presence) | Pass |
| Audit + persisted outbox rows | Pass |
| Soft-delete code reclaim (program + member) | Pass |
| Null required-field updates | Pass |
| Audit UUID/tier update path | Pass |

## Self-Healed Defects (this cycle)

1. Incomplete Phase 7.1 residue removed (lifecycle routes/services/migration/imports) — restored 7.0 baseline
2. IntegrityError → 409 on all create paths; no raw DB `cause` in API details
3. Audit `changes` JSON-serialized (UUID / date / enum safe)
4. Explicit `null` on non-nullable update fields → `422 null_not_allowed`
5. Permission tree inheritance: `loyalty.view`, `*.manage`, `loyalty.manage`
6. In-memory event mirror only in `environment=test` (outbox remains source of truth)
7. Deterministic `ORDER BY created_at DESC` on tenant lists
8. Partial unique index: at most one live default program per tenant
9. Production config guards reject default DB credentials / `debug=True`
10. External customer ref uniqueness pre-check; DTO `extra=forbid` + non-negative numeric fields
11. Tests expanded for outbox persistence, member soft-delete reclaim, null updates, permission trees

## Integration Verification

| System | Dependency mode | Result |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Identity / JWT | Shared JWT validator + roles | Pass (contracts) |
| Core Platform | Config URL only; entitlement check deferred platform-wide | Pass (documented) |
| CRM | `CRMProvider` protocol only | Pass |
| Accounting | Forbidden import / no ownership | Pass |
| Notification / Communication / SMS | Provider protocols only | Pass |
| AI | `AIProvider` protocol only | Pass |
| Storage | `FileStorageProvider` protocol only | Pass |

No duplicated Loyalty business logic inside CRM or other modules. No Phase 7.1 APIs remain.

## Remaining Risks

1. Outbox rows stay `PENDING` until a platform bus worker exists.
2. Program soft-delete does not cascade to members/accounts — intentional until Membership Engine policy.
3. Alembic `0001_initial` still uses metadata `create_all` (parity with CRM foundation); explicit DDL can harden later.
4. Optimistic locking is service-layer version check (not `UPDATE … WHERE version=?`); acceptable for 7.0 shell load, harden before high-concurrency ledger.
5. `X-Tenant-ID` is not yet bound to JWT tenant claim (platform-wide pattern shared with CRM).
6. Intra-DB FK constraints between aggregates deferred (UUID refs + service checks; matches foundation style).

## Technical Debt (acceptable for 7.0)

- Metadata-driven initial migration
- No Celery/outbox flusher in Loyalty service yet
- Cascade/archive policies deferred to 7.1+
- Core entitlement feature-key wiring deferred platform-wide

## Recommendations before Phase 7.1

1. Define membership lifecycle state machine + eligibility validators first
2. Decide cascade policy when closing a program/member (reject vs soft-cascade)
3. Keep PointAccount balance out of DTO surface; introduce ledger-only writes in 7.2
4. Wire Core entitlement `loyalty.*` feature keys when plan catalog is ready
5. Consider JWT↔tenant binding as a platform ADR before high-value financial mutations
6. Do not embed Loyalty rules in Restaurant/CRM — consume Loyalty APIs/events only
