davideandClaude Opus 5 9c7befe595 Hash and verify passwords off the event loop (B-55)
Argon2 is deliberately expensive — tens of milliseconds of CPU per call. Called
inline from the async handlers for register, login, change-password and the
admin reset, that cost froze the entire process for its duration: every other
request, plus all six background tasks (scheduler, confirmation poller, RBF
bumper, listener, both reconcilers). A burst of unauthenticated login attempts
was therefore not just slow logins, it delayed draws and confirmations.

hash_password_async/verify_password_async wrap the existing pair in
run_in_threadpool, and every async caller now uses them. The synchronous
functions stay: they're what the wrappers call, and what tests and scripts (no
running loop) use directly.

The regression test runs a heartbeat task alongside the hashing and counts how
often the loop got to run it — 1 tick with the old inline call, many with the
threadpooled one.

Also drops the running "already fixed and removed" list from BUGS.md: the file
tracks open findings, and `git log --all --grep 'B-nn'` is the record of how a
closed one was closed.

PLM Lottery

A periodic-round lottery system built on PLM, a Bitcoin-like coin (mainnet). Each user gets a dedicated server-derived P2WPKH address; they deposit PLM to that address, place a fixed-cost bet to enter the current round, and when the round closes a winner is drawn who receives 70% of the prize pool (the remaining 30% goes to fees).

This is a custodial system: private keys are generated and held server-side, encrypted at rest. See CLAUDE.md for the full architecture, domain decisions, and known gaps before treating this as production-ready.

Quick start

The server always runs via Docker (app + Caddy reverse proxy with automatic TLS) — in dev and production alike, with only SITE_ADDRESS differing between the two. There's no supported way to run uvicorn directly; the venv is only for local tooling (tests, Alembic migrations, the one-time key scripts) — see CLAUDE.md.

cp .env.example .env               # then fill in the generated secrets, see docs/setup.md
mkdir -p data/db data/keys data/logs
docker compose run --rm app python scripts/generate_master_key.py
docker compose up -d --build

Open https://localhost/ for the test UI, https://localhost/admin for the admin dashboard (a self-signed-certificate warning on first visit is expected in dev — accept it, or use curl -k). The interactive API docs at /docs are disabled by default (they'd otherwise expose the whole API surface, admin endpoints included) — set ENABLE_API_DOCS=true in .env to enable them.

See docs/setup.md and docs/running-the-server.md for the full walkthrough (secrets, master key generation, production TLS with a real domain).

Documentation

Tech stack

Python (FastAPI, SQLAlchemy async + Alembic, Argon2 + JWT auth), Electrum protocol for PLM network access (no full node), Docker + Caddy for deployment. See CLAUDE.md for the complete list and the reasoning behind each choice.

Testing

python -m pytest                    # all tests
python -m pytest tests/unit/test_hd.py   # one file

232 unit tests cover HD derivation, PSBT building, the Electrum client, bets, deposits, withdrawals, the round/draw engine, RBF fee-bumping, admin config, the pending-inclusive balance calculation, and the SSE push channel. No automated integration tests against a live Electrum connection — mainnet verification so far has been manual (see CLAUDE.md's "Project status").
