A REIMPORT takes ~110 seconds and, until now, showed only a scrolling log — there was no way to tell "halfway" from "wedged", which mattered the day one actually did wedge. run_all.py emits "[paso i/N] name" before each step and the API derives progress from the job log. Emitting the marker from the Python rather than having the UI count STEPS itself means the step count is stated in exactly one place; adding a step cannot desync the display. Progress is derived, not stored, for the same reason: the log is already the record of what happened, and a separate counter could contradict it, which is precisely the confusion a progress display exists to remove. While RUNNING, step i is IN PROGRESS rather than finished, so only i-1 count as done. Counting i would show 100% while the final step was still working — and the final step (blob_extract) is the slowest, so the bar would sit at "100%" for the longest stretch of the job. BACKUP and RESTORE are a single mysqldump with no steps and deliberately render no bar; a fabricated percentage would be worse than none. The safety backup that precedes a REIMPORT is likewise named explicitly instead of showing 0%, which reads as stuck. Pinned by job-progress.spec.ts, including the literal line run_all.py emits, so a change to the Python format fails a test rather than silently blanking the panel.

Jorge Cuadros & Asociados — Platform
Internal platform for a Baja California insurance brokerage and property-services
firm: a single expedient joining each client's properties/services,
insurance policies, account statement, and the firm's checkbook.
It replaces a legacy PHP/Access app (see RESUME.md and PLAN.md for the full
history and rebuild rationale, and docs/BACKLOG.md for
everything still outstanding).
The UI is Spanish-first; the codebase and this document are in English.

API feature modules: auth, users, customers, policies, properties,
billing, bank, reports, notifications, renewals, mail, statements,
policy-ocr, ocr, storage, settings, ops.
Web routes: /inicio, /clientes, /polizas (+ /polizas/captura, policy
PDF OCR capture), /servicios, /estado-cuenta, /banco (chequera),
/recibos (utility statement OCR capture), /notificaciones (mass email +
renewal avisos; /renovaciones is an alias onto its Pólizas tab), /reportes,
/catalogos, /operaciones (DB ingest/backup, ADMIN), /usuarios, /login.
Two OCR intakes share one OcrProvider seam (src/ocr/, Tesseract today):
utility statements → ledger rows (docs/STATEMENT_OCR.md)
and carrier policy PDFs → Policy rows (docs/POLICY_OCR.md).
Both need tesseract-ocr, tesseract-ocr-data-spa, poppler-utils and object
storage; each reports its own availability and disables only itself if either
is missing.
Prerequisites
- Node.js >= 20 and pnpm (
npm i -g pnpm) - Docker (for MySQL, or bring your own MySQL 8)
- Python 3 — only if you run the legacy data migration
Run it locally (development)
1. Install
pnpm install
pnpm blocks postinstall build scripts by default; the trusted ones
(argon2, prisma, @prisma/client, @prisma/engines, @nestjs/core) are
allowlisted in pnpm-workspace.yaml, so the native builds run automatically.
2. Configure environment
cp .env.example .env
Then edit .env. For the Docker MySQL below the defaults already line up;
just set a real SESSION_SECRET:
DATABASE_URL=mysql://jorgecuadros:jorgecuadros@localhost:3306/jorgecuadros
SESSION_SECRET=<any long random string>
WEB_ORIGIN=http://localhost:3000
NEXT_PUBLIC_API_ORIGIN=http://localhost:3001
The API loads DATABASE_URL, SESSION_SECRET, WEB_ORIGIN, and optional
PORT (default 3001). The web app only needs NEXT_PUBLIC_API_ORIGIN.
3. Start MySQL
docker compose up -d mysql
(Or point DATABASE_URL at an existing MySQL 8 instance.)
4. Create the schema + generate the Prisma client
The schema is managed with prisma db push (no migration history committed):
pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/database exec prisma db push
pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/database generate
5. Seed a sign-in user
node apps/api/scripts/seed-user.mjs
Idempotent (upsert by email). Defaults — override with SEED_EMAIL,
SEED_PASSWORD, SEED_NAME:
- email:
admin@jorgecuadros.local - password:
ChangeMe!2026 - role:
ADMIN
6. Run the apps (two terminals)
# API → http://localhost:3001
pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/api start:dev
# Web → http://localhost:3000
pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/web dev
Root shortcuts also exist: pnpm dev:api, pnpm dev:web.
7. Log in
Open http://localhost:3000, sign in with the seeded credentials. Sessions are cookie-based and last 8 hours.
Run it with Docker (full stack)
Builds MySQL + API + web from docker-compose.yml:
export SESSION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
docker compose up --build
Web on http://localhost:3000, API on http://localhost:3001. SESSION_SECRET
is required (compose fails without it). After first boot, push the schema and
seed a user against the container DB:
docker compose exec api node apps/api/scripts/seed-user.mjs
Common commands
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Install | pnpm install |
| Dev — API | pnpm dev:api |
| Dev — Web | pnpm dev:web |
| Build all | pnpm build |
| Generate Prisma client | pnpm prisma:generate |
| Push schema (dev) | pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/database exec prisma db push |
| Prisma Studio | pnpm prisma:studio |
| API tests | pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/api test |
| Lint (web / api) | pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/web lint · ... /api lint |
| Seed admin user | node apps/api/scripts/seed-user.mjs |
Auth & roles
Session auth via Passport local strategy; passwords hashed with Argon2 (no
plaintext, unlike the legacy app). Roles gate the UI and API — e.g. managing
/catalogos and /usuarios requires the appropriate ability (ADMIN /
MANAGER). New users are created by an admin in /usuarios; the first admin
comes from the seed script above.
Legacy data migration (optional)
migration/ holds the one-off Python ETL that lifts data out of the old
Microsoft Access database into MySQL.
pip install -r migration/requirements.txt
python migration/run_all.py
⚠️
run_all.pytruncates and reloads all downstream tables. Never run an individualtransform_*.pyin isolation — it orphans dependent tables. Seemigration/RECONCILIATION.mdfor details.
Scheduled jobs
The API runs two automatic email sweeps. Neither cadence is in the source:
both are stored in app_settings and edited at /notificaciones →
"Programación de envíos" (ADMIN, setting:manage), taking effect immediately
without a restart. Shipped defaults:
| Job | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Pólizas | on, 06:00 daily (America/Tijuana) | Renewal avisos at 30/15 days before expiry and 7 days after. |
| Servicios | off | All four mass-email jobs in order, same as "Ejecutar todos". |
A scheduled run never uses the UI's send flags — in particular it ignores
debug, so a forgotten test toggle cannot silently stop customer mail. Full
detail in docs/MASS_EMAIL_NOTIFICATIONS.md.
Sending needs SES_* in the environment. Without it the API still boots and
logs mail to stdout in dev; in production every send fails loudly and is
recorded as FAILED rather than quietly going nowhere.
Production notes
- Use
pnpm --filter @jorgecuadros/database exec prisma migrate deployif/when a committed migration history is adopted; today dev usesdb push. - Set a strong
SESSION_SECRETand a locked-downDATABASE_URL. - The API expects
WEB_ORIGINto match the browser origin for session cookies. - Documents are stored in MinIO in the deployed environment (see
RESUME.md).
