Parity logic:
- Extract _fetch_latest_alerts() and _upsert_alerts() helpers so the alert
upsert loop is no longer duplicated between the daily job and per-date runs
- Add run_parity_check_for_date(date) which runs the full comparison +
alert upsert for a single date
Scraper integration:
- _safe_parity_recheck(date) wrapper (never raises) called after each
successful date in both search-results and hotel-page workers; hotel-page
mode waits until all hotels for the date are done before rechecking
API:
- POST /competitors/parity/check-date?rate_date=YYYY-MM-DD for manual recheck
Frontend:
- Recheck button on every parity alert row (all statuses); invalidates
alerts list and badge count on success
- parity-alert-count badge polls every 15s (was 60s) so new alerts from
the scheduled job or post-scrape rechecks appear quickly

- DISTINCT ON tiebreaker was undefined when scraper writes multiple room
types in one batch (same scraped_at); adding rate_gross ASC ensures we
always pick the cheapest (lead-in / best available) rate, matching like
for like against the Newbook BAR tariff
- Past-date active alerts were never touched (start = today meant they
fell outside the query window); now resolved at the top of each run

SQLAlchemy's text() parser treated the ':' in '::date' (PostgreSQL cast syntax)
as a second unbound parameter after :start/:end, producing malformed SQL and
crashing the scheduled Booking.com scrape silently with no history entry written.

Medium and low priority tiers were generating full static date ranges
(150 and 185 dates) every day. With a queue limit of 200, high (31) +
medium (150) consumed the entire budget, leaving only ~19 slots for low
priority — causing the observed ~6 month cap.
Medium now selects the 60 oldest-scraped (or never-scraped) dates from
the days 31-180 window; low selects the 30 oldest from days 181-365.
Per-run budget drops from ~365 to ~121 dates, and coverage naturally
cycles through the full year: medium every ~2-3 days, low every ~6-7 days.

Schema: migrate newbook_occupancy_report_data from single-row upsert to
snapshot model (drop unique constraint, add valid_from / last_verified_at)
matching the pattern used by newbook_current_rates.
Backend: sync_occupancy now inserts a new row only when occupied/available/
maintenance figures change, otherwise bumps last_verified_at. New endpoint
GET /bookability/occupancy-history/{category_id}/{date} returns the timeline.
Rate matrix query updated to DISTINCT ON for the multi-row table.
Frontend: clicking any cell in the Bookability matrix opens a modal with
two stacked Plotly charts — rate history per tariff (step lines, green/red
markers for available/unavailable) and occupancy pick-up over time.

Switch date_last_updated from valid_from (rate change time) to
last_verified_at (last check time). All dates verified in the same daily
run now show a consistent timestamp rather than varying by when rates
last changed. Also commit per-date instead of batching 10 days — prevents
a single API error from rolling back up to 9 preceding committed dates.

parity_match_mode config ('best_available' default | 'match_terms').
Best available = cheapest bookable non-dinner direct tariff vs the BC
lead-in (already BC's best available) — simplest like-for-like. Term
matching kept as an option for days where BC's cheapest basis differs
from direct's. Settings gains a comparison-basis select.

The check compared Newbook's FIRST tariff (typically flexi B&B) against
Booking.com's lead-in card (often prepaid) — apples vs oranges, e.g.
21 Jul flagged B&B FLEX £289 vs a prepaid BC rate whose true comparable
was B&B PPAY £279.
- classify Newbook tariffs from names/descriptions (PPAY/prepay/advance/
ADV/NRF/saver = prepaid; DBB/dinner/half board = dinner-inclusive)
- use the scraped BC rate's flags (free_cancellation/no_prepayment/
breakfast_included) to pick the cheapest COMPARABLE tariff per date,
excluding tariffs not bookable for that date (success=false, min-stay
>1, unmet advance-purchase windows)
- tiered fallback (matched -> any non-dinner -> any -> legacy headline),
recorded per alert in room_category as 'TARIFF vs BC basis'
- shared gather_comparisons() now drives both the daily job and
GET /competitors/parity (issues gain newbook_tariff, booking_basis,
match_quality, expected_rate)

- config: parity_markup_value/_unit + parity_tolerance_value/_unit
(pct|gbp), legacy *_pct keys still read as fallback
- expected rate = newbook + £X or newbook × (1 + X%); breach test uses
the tolerance in its own unit
- Settings parity tab: unit selects + live worked example line
- Parity Alerts tab: unit-aware description, badge now shows £ deviation
alongside %

Parity was read-only — the alerts table had no producer, so the Market
View badge could never fire. Now:
- jobs/check_rate_parity.py: daily 06:45 job comparing own Booking.com
lead-in rate vs cheapest Newbook rate per date, measured against an
EXPECTED markup (we deliberately price Booking.com higher to cover
commission): alert when deviation from newbook*(1+markup%) exceeds the
tolerance. Creates/updates active alerts, auto-resolves dates back in
line, leaves acknowledged dates alone.
- config keys: parity_check_enabled, parity_expected_markup_pct,
parity_tolerance_pct (system_config)
- POST /competitors/parity/check manual trigger; GET /parity now uses the
same markup/tolerance and cheapest-across-categories Newbook rate
- Settings -> Rate Parity tab: markup %, tolerance %, enable toggle,
run-now with result summary
- Market View -> Parity Alerts tab: status-filtered list w/ acknowledge
- Market View -> Hotels: direct-link dropdown per competitor (new PUT
/competitors/hotels/{id}/direct-link) — closes the never-written
direct_hotel_id gap so the matrix direct-rates sub-row can populate
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Bookability showed no availability because newbook_occupancy_report_data
was never populated: add reports_occupancy client method and
sync_occupancy job, run before rates in both Sync Now and the daily
schedule (single fast API call)
- Category order: default display_order to the Newbook category id on
sync (was 0 → alphabetical), preserve manual order on re-sync, extend
PATCH to accept display_order, add up/down reorder arrows in Settings

- schema defined gross_rate/net_rate but every query (fetch job,
bookability, competitors) uses rate_gross/rate_net — rename the
columns, with an idempotent DO-block migration for existing tables
- roll back the session when a date fails so one bad statement no
longer poisons the whole sync run (every subsequent write was dying
with 'current transaction is aborted')
