- location /tablet-checkin/api/devices/ (trailing slash, proxy_pass) made
nginx auto-redirect the bare /api/devices list endpoint, and since this
inner nginx sits behind NPM's TLS termination it built that redirect as
http:// even over an https:// request — browsers block that as mixed
content, surfacing as a bare 'Failed to fetch' on the Devices admin page
with no other clue. Dropped the trailing slash on both the location
pattern and proxy_pass target; still correctly prefix-matches every
/devices/:id/... sub-route, no more auto-redirect at all.
- pushNavigate/send() now only reports delivered:true if a write
demonstrably succeeded, not just because a stream entry exists for the
device — a stale-but-not-formally-closed connection can silently accept
a write that never reaches the far end.
- pushBookingToDevice can now self-heal a device stuck 'busy' with no live
session behind it (session already expired unused) rather than requiring
an admin to manually click Reset first. Real failure mode hit testing on
a physical tablet 2026-09-01: two pushes worked end-to-end, a third's
navigate event never reached the tablet (SSE connection silently died
during an idle gap), leaving the device stuck with no way to recover
except a manual admin reset.
