fix(economic): sanitize user-input fields to prevent 400 errors

E-conomic API returns HTTP 400 when text-line descriptions contain certain
characters. The most common case is '/' in the order reference field,
which causes the entire draft-invoice export to fail.

This change adds a single sanitizer class (economic_export_sanitizer) that
handles all user-input fields flowing into e-conomic:

  - sanitizeTextLine() — for plain text lines (reference, notes, po, reg_*, etc.)
  - sanitizeProductNumber() — for product identifiers
  - sanitizeProductDescription() — for product-line descriptions
  - sanitizeForEconApi() — catch-all

Sanitization rules:
  - '/' is replaced with '-' (the reported 400 trigger)
  - Control characters (\x00-\x1F except \t and \n) are stripped
  - Tab and newline characters collapse to a single space
  - Whitespace is normalized and trimmed
  - Lengths capped (text 250, product 50, description 500) with '...' suffix

Applied to all vulnerable fields in economic_invoice_draft.php:
  - order.po
  - order.reference (PRIMARY FIX for the reported issue)
  - order.notes
  - order.reg_1/2/3
  - order_item.reference
  - order_item.notes
  - product.description
  - product.productNumber
  - department_name

Test coverage:
  - 31 unit tests with 45 assertions
  - All edge cases (null, empty, control chars, multibyte, very long)
  - Lint and test suite both pass

+# Plan: Remove broken Coolify cron-worker deployment; add reliable 5-min cron
+
+## Audit findings
+
+The "Coolify cron worker flow" is a **dual-deployment mechanism** that:
+- Tries to auto-deploy a **separate Coolify "cron" application** every time the API is deployed
+- That separate app runs `php index.php run cron-worker` as a long-running process
+- Tracks worker heartbeats in a `cron_worker_state` table
+
+The "auto-deploy" part is implemented in `release_manager.php` (~300 lines of
+`cronWorker*` methods: `deployCronWorker*`, `cronWorkerAutoprovision*`,
+`cronWorkerTarget*`, etc.) and is **broken** because the Coolify API endpoints
+for creating a new application for the cron worker are not stable/reliable in
+our setup.
+
+Meanwhile, the **actual cron mechanism** (`cron_worker.php`, `cron_scheduler.php`,
+`cron_task_registry.php`, and the 20+ scheduled tasks in `modules/*/cron/tasks.php`)
+is sound. The Docker compose files already define a `cron-worker` service
+that runs the long-running process. The auto-deploy logic is just trying to
+maintain a separate Coolify app for the same purpose — and failing.
+
+## The plan
+
+### 1. Remove the broken auto-deploy logic
+
+Delete or no-op the following from `release_manager.php`:
+- `cronWorkerStatus()`
+- `deployCronWorker()`
+- `deployCronWorkerForApiTarget()`
+- `deployCronWorkerAfterApiDeployment()`
+- `cronWorkerAutoprovisionEnabled()`
+- `cronWorkerAutoprovisionRequired()`
+- `cronWorkerTarget*()` (5 methods)
+- `cronWorkerSummary()`, `cronWorkerHealth()`, `cronWorkerDeploymentReadiness()`
+- `cronWorkerMergeIssues()`, `cronWorkerIssue()`
+- `cronWorkerDeploymentAgeSeconds()`, `cronWorkerProviderStatus()`
+- `cronWorkerDeployContext()`
+- `createCronWorkerDeploymentRecord()`, `cronWorkerDeployments()`
+- `cronWorkerChannels()`, `cronWorkersForTarget()`
+- `cronWorkerSourceFromCronTarget()`
+- Constants: `CRON_WORKER_APP`, `CRON_WORKER_START_COMMAND`, `CRON_WORKER_DESIRED_COUNT`, `CRON_WORKER_HEARTBEAT_GRACE_SECONDS`
+- The `$result['cron_worker'] = ...` call after API deployment
+
+Keep:
+- `cron_worker.php` class (the actual worker)
+- `cron_scheduler.php`, `cron_schedule.php`, `cron_task_registry.php`
+- `cron_schema_bootstrap.php` and the `cron_worker_state` table
+- All 20+ scheduled tasks in `modules/*/cron/tasks.php`
+- The `cron-worker` service in `docker-compose*.yml`
+- The `cron-worker` case in `cli.php`
+
+### 2. Remove the corresponding tests
+
+- `tests/Unit/Cron/CronWorkerWiringTest.php` — delete or rewrite (only assert things that still exist)
+- `tests/Unit/ReleaseManager/ReleaseManagerTest.php` — remove the `cron_worker_*` test cases (~150 lines)
+- `tests/Smoke/boolean_normalization_smoke.php` — remove cron_worker reference
+
+### 3. Add a reliable 5-min cron mechanism
+
+Two-layer approach:
+1. **Long-running `cron-worker` Docker service** (already in compose) — handles
+   tasks that need to run frequently (60s intervals, etc.). Started automatically
+   with the rest of the stack.
+2. **System cron / health-check loop** — verifies the cron-worker is alive every
+   5 min. If no fresh heartbeat in 10 min, alert.
+
+This replaces the broken auto-deploy with a simple, observable contract.
+
+### 4. Add a verification harness
+
+`/workspace/scripts/verify-api-cron.py`:
+- Hits the API's `cronWorkerStatus` endpoint
+- Reads `cron_worker_state` rows via the public route (or a new `/api/admin/cron-status` endpoint)
+- If no fresh heartbeat in 10 min, post to #ai-daily
+- Run every 5 min via a new cron job
+
+### 5. Update documentation
+
+- `inventory/self-serve-inventory.md` — remove coolify-cron-worker references
+- `openapi.yaml` — remove `cron_worker_status` route documentation
+- `routes/cronRoute.php` — remove the coolify-cron-worker endpoints
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- [ ] `release_manager.php` no longer contains `deployCronWorker`, `cronWorkerAutoprovision*`, `cronWorkerTarget*`, `CRON_WORKER_APP`
+- [ ] No tests reference removed methods
+- [ ] `docker-compose.yml` still has a `cron-worker` service (unchanged)
+- [ ] `cronWorkerStatus` route returns 200 with `{"workers":[],"issues":[]}` or similar (not 500)
+- [ ] A new cron job runs `verify-api-cron.py` every 5 min
+- [ ] Verify script posts to #ai-daily if no heartbeat in 10 min
+- [ ] PR created, tests pass, merge
+
+## Risk
+
+- **Removing `deployCronWorker*` could break live deployments** if someone is
+  actively using the API endpoint to deploy a cron worker. Mitigation: keep the
+  HTTP route returning a friendly "removed" message instead of deleting it.
+- **Removing `cronWorkerStatus()` from the release_manager endpoint** could
+  break dashboards. Mitigation: replace the route handler with a direct query
+  to `cron_worker_state` so the response shape is preserved.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Create a feature branch `fix/remove-coolify-cron-worker`
+2. Edit `release_manager.php`: remove the broken methods, replace `cronWorkerStatus` with a direct query
+3. Edit `tests/Unit/ReleaseManager/ReleaseManagerTest.php`: remove cron_worker tests
+4. Edit `tests/Unit/Cron/CronWorkerWiringTest.php`: drop assertions on removed wiring
+5. Edit `routes/cronRoute.php`: keep the status endpoint but call the new direct query
+6. Edit `cli.php`: no change needed (cron-worker case still works)
+7. Edit `docker-compose*.yml`: no change needed (cron-worker service unchanged)
+8. Create `/workspace/scripts/verify-api-cron.py` for the verification harness
+9. Add a new cron job `5 * * * *` Europe/Copenhagen that runs `verify-api-cron.py`
+10. Add a new endpoint `GET /api/admin/cron-status` that returns the cron state JSON
+11. Run the test suite locally
+12. Push branch, create PR, get user review

+# White-Hat Penetration Test — Plan & Engagement (TRU-80)
+
+> ## ⛔ CANCELLED — DO NOT EXECUTE
+> **Status:** Cancelled 2026-08-16 by Jeppe Bundgaard
+> **Reason:** No budget approved at this time. The platform continues to rely on free, in-house tools (Qodana Cloud static analysis, GitHub Dependabot, GitHub secret scanning, weekly dependency digests).
+> **What this means:** No external pen-test firm is being engaged. This document is kept as a planning artifact for future reference. If/when a budget is approved, re-open TRU-80 and execute per the scope below.
+> **Owner:** Jeppe Bundgaard (jeppe@copenhagentruckwash.io)
+>
+> ---
+
+**Linear:** [TRU-80 — DRIFT 19: White hat pen test (security review)](https://linear.app/truck-wash-aps/issue/TRU-80/drift-19-white-hat-pen-test-security-review)
+**Project:** UI Library & Pen Testing
+**Priority:** Medium
+**Status (this doc):** Draft v1 — ready for engineering + management review
+**Author:** bugfix sub-agent (TRU-80)
+**Date:** 2026-08-16
+
+---
+
+## 1. Purpose
+
+Define the scope, methodology, deliverables, scheduling, and budget envelope for an
+independent white-hat penetration test of the Truck Wash ApS platform. The engagement
+is intended to validate the security posture of the customer- and operator-facing
+production stack before further public rollout and ahead of any major commercial
+expansion (e.g. additional self-serve sites, additional payment integrations).
+
+This document is the planning artefact for TRU-80. It does **not** itself perform
+or simulate a pen test — it specifies the engagement so that an external vendor can
+be selected and contracted.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Scope (in)
+
+The following systems are **in scope** for the engagement. Coverage is **production
+stack only** (no staging is exposed for pen-test unless explicitly noted).
+
+### 2.1 API (PHP / NGINX, `copenhagentruckwash/api`)
+
+- All HTTP(S) routes under `services/nginx/app/routes/` (≈116 route files) and
+  `services/nginx/app/modules/*/routes/` (multiple modules incl. Stripe, Limble,
+  Scanner, Self-Serve Studio, Edge Gateway, Bird Control Plane, etc.).
+- Authentication / session endpoints, including:
+  - `usersRoute.php`, `userSecurityRoute.php`, `superuserSecurityRoute.php`,
+    `subusersRoute.php`, `limitedBackofficeRoute.php`
+  - `limitedBackofficeLoginGrantService.php` and the backoffice grant flow
+- Authorization model: role-based access (customer / sub-user / backoffice /
+  superuser) and per-customer data isolation.
+- Customer & invoice routes: `customerNotes`, `customerDefaultDepartmentRoute`,
+  `customerCodeDepartmentRoute`, wash certificate, vehicle plate lookup,
+  collected-invoices, order routes.
+- Payment integration: Stripe module (`moduleStripeRoute.php`).
+- Economic ERP integration (`economic_endpoint_t.php` trait) — read-only
+  token handling, invoice push.
+- Edge gateway / IoT surface: `moduleEdgeGatewayRoute.php`, `edgegateway.php`,
+  `shelly.php`, `gateway_shelly_transport.php`, `birdControlPlaneRoute.php`.
+- File / media endpoints: `file_server.php` (auth-gated downloads, S3 / local).
+- Rate limiting, CORS, CSRF, JWT / session cookie handling, and the underlying
+  Redis trait (`redis_t.php`).
+- WordPress trait / integration (`wordpress_api_object_t.php`) — only as far as
+  our code consumes it; the upstream WP instance is **out of scope** unless
+  hosted by us.
+- Container/infrastructure: `Dockerfile`, `Dockerfile.coolify-api`, NGINX
+  config (`nginx.conf`, `apache-ssl.conf`), `docker-compose.prod.yml`,
+  `coolify` deploy config. Black-box reachable attack surface only.
+
+### 2.2 Pleno-Vue (Vue 3 + Capacitor, `copenhagentruckwash/pleno-vue`)
+
+- Web SPA (`app/`, `index.html`, `dist/`) reachable at the production hostname.
+- Mobile builds for Android (`android/`, `build.gradle`, `fastlane/`) and iOS
+  (`ios/`) packaged via Capacitor (`capacitor.config.ts`).
+- API client and token storage in the SPA (where tokens live, at-rest
+  protection, refresh flow).
+- Build-time secrets, env handling (`env.d.ts`, `manifest-checksum.txt`,
+  `Gemfile` if used for asset signing), the public OpenAPI spec committed at
+  the root (`openapi.yaml`).
+- Capacitor deep-link / universal-link / custom-scheme handling
+  (`capacitor.config.ts`).
+
+### 2.3 Infrastructure & cross-cutting (in)
+
+- TLS configuration (cert chain, HSTS, cipher suites) on the production
+  public host.
+- HTTP security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy,
+  Permissions-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options).
+- Subdomain / wildcard exposure (`*.truckwash.dk` style).
+- Email & SMS notification paths only as far as they can be abused for
+  spoofing / phishing of our users (we control the From domain).
+
+### 2.4 Out of scope (explicitly)
+
+- Upstream SaaS providers' own infrastructure: Stripe, Economic, WordPress.com,
+  Shelly cloud, Limble, Mailgun, etc. We will only test the **integration**,
+  not the third party itself.
+- Internal office LAN, employee laptops, MDT, and physical site hardware
+  (gate controllers, scanners) — these are covered by a separate physical /
+  OT scope and **out of scope** for this IT pen test.
+- Denial-of-service / load testing.
+- Social engineering of Truck Wash staff.
+- Source-code review of `node_modules` / vendor dependencies (the engagement
+  will use SCA tooling to flag known CVEs, but not audit transitive deps).
+- Any production data exfiltration — the vendor will be given sanitised or
+  test accounts and synthetic data only.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Methodology
+
+Industry-standard, manual-led engagement with tooling support. Recommended
+methodology base: **OWASP ASVS** level 2 (with a stretch goal of level 3 on
+auth + payment) and **OWASP WSTG** for the web/API surface. Mobile builds will
+use **OWASP MASVS** as the checklist.
+
+Phases (estimated total: 12 working days of vendor effort, see §6):
+
+1. **Scoping & recon (1 day)**
+   - Confirm target list, accounts, and rules of engagement.
+   - Passive recon (DNS, cert transparency, subdomains, public OpenAPI spec).
+   - Active recon limited to non-destructive fingerprinting.
+2. **API pen test (3 days)**
+   - AuthN/AuthZ boundary testing on every route group in §2.1.
+   - IDOR / BOLA testing on customer-scoped resources (invoices, plates,
+     wash certificates, sub-users, customer notes).
+   - Input validation: SQLi, command injection, SSRF, XXE, path traversal,
+     deserialisation, header injection.
+   - Business-logic abuse: free-wash flow, refund / credit flow, coupon /
+     discount stacking, sub-user privilege escalation.
+   - Webhook signature validation (Stripe, Edge Gateway, Shelly).
+3. **Web SPA pen test (2 days)**
+   - XSS (reflected, stored, DOM-based) including Vue template injection.
+   - Token storage, leakage via 3rd-party scripts, postMessage abuse.
+   - Open-redirect / OAuth misconfig in any SSO flow.
+   - CSP / SRI effectiveness.
+4. **Mobile (Capacitor) review (2 days)**
+   - Static analysis of the built APK / IPA (Capacitor WebView).
+   - Insecure WebView settings (`allowFileAccess`, `MixedContentMode`,
+     custom-scheme handlers).
+   - Local storage of tokens, biometric bypass if implemented.
+   - Deep-link / universal-link hijack attempts.
+5. **Infrastructure & config (1.5 days)**
+   - TLS, headers, cookie flags, HSTS preload eligibility.
+   - NGINX hardening review (based on provided config snapshots).
+   - Docker / coolify surface only as externally reachable.
+6. **SCA / dependency check (0.5 day)**
+   - `composer.json` and `package.json` SCA scan.
+   - High-severity known-CVE report only; no deep audit.
+7. **Exploitation & PoC (1 day)**
+   - Build proofs-of-concept for any Critical / High findings.
+8. **Reporting & re-test (1 day)**
+   - Draft report → vendor walkthrough → final report.
+   - Re-test of fixed findings is scoped separately (see §6).
+
+---
+
+## 4. Rules of engagement (RoE)
+
+- **Window:** business hours Europe/Copenhagen by default; out-of-hours
+  exploitation only with prior written approval per critical finding.
+- **Contact channel:** shared Signal thread + email; vendor given a Slack
+  guest account in a dedicated `#sec-pentest-2026Q4` channel.
+- **Stop conditions:** any finding that risks data loss, payment integrity,
+  or production gate operation → immediate stop + phone call to on-call.
+- **Data handling:** vendor may only use synthetic / test data. No
+  exfiltration of real customer PII. All artifacts returned or destroyed at
+  end of engagement (TBD in contract).
+- **Coverage of third parties:** the vendor will not test Stripe / Economic
+  / Shelly / Limble directly; if a third-party vulnerability is suspected,
+  we follow responsible-disclosure to the vendor ourselves.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Deliverables
+
+1. **Kick-off doc** (this plan, signed off by both parties).
+2. **Daily standup notes** in `#sec-pentest-2026Q4` (one paragraph + new
+   findings list).
+3. **Mid-engagement check-in** at end of phase 3 — informal review of any
+   Critical / High so we can start patching in parallel.
+4. **Final report (PDF + JSON)** including:
+   - Executive summary, risk heatmap, business-impact narrative.
+   - Each finding: title, CVSS v3.1, affected asset, steps to reproduce,
+     screenshots / Burp session, recommended fix, references.
+   - SCA dependency report as an appendix.
+5. **Re-test letter** (separate SOW, see §6).
+6. **Knowledge transfer**: 60-min session for engineering on the top 5
+   findings.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Budget & scheduling
+
+### 6.1 Indicative effort
+
+| Phase | Days | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 1. Scoping & recon | 1.0 | joint with us |
+| 2. API pen test | 3.0 | |
+| 3. Web SPA | 2.0 | |
+| 4. Mobile (Capacitor) | 2.0 | |
+| 5. Infra & config | 1.5 | |
+| 6. SCA | 0.5 | tooling-led |
+| 7. Exploitation / PoC | 1.0 | |
+| 8. Reporting | 1.0 | incl. 1 review round |
+| **Total** | **12.0 days** | |
+
+### 6.2 Indicative cost (DKK, ex. VAT)
+
+Pricing varies significantly with vendor. Three realistic budget tiers for
+procurement:
+
+| Tier | Daily rate (DKK) | Total (12 d) | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Boutique / Nordic boutique (e.g. Danish / Swedish) | 12 000 – 16 000 | **144 000 – 192 000** | Best fit for our stack size, Danish-language reporting available. |
+| Mid-tier international (e.g. NCC, Securix, Pentest People) | 15 000 – 22 000 | **180 000 – 264 000** | More brand name, more bureaucracy, stronger report templates. |
+| Top-tier / Big-4 style | 25 000 – 40 000 | **300 000 – 480 000** | Overkill for current footprint; revisit at Series-A. |
+
+**Recommended envelope: 180 000 – 220 000 DKK** (mid-tier, 12 days) plus a
+**re-test retainer of ~25 000 DKK** (1 day, scheduled 30 days after final
+report).
+
+Add ~5 000 DKK contingency for incident-response hours if a Critical is
+found mid-engagement.
+
+### 6.3 Schedule (proposed)
+
+- **2026-08-25** — this plan reviewed and signed off by management.
+- **2026-08-26 → 2026-09-08** — vendor RFP: shortlist 3 vendors, request
+  proposals, evaluate.
+- **2026-09-09 → 2026-09-15** — contract + NDA + RoE finalisation.
+- **2026-09-22 (week 39)** — engagement kick-off.
+- **2026-09-22 → 2026-10-07** — on-site / remote testing (2.5 calendar
+  weeks, vendor working in parallel with their normal cadence).
+- **2026-10-08** — draft report.
+- **2026-10-15** — final report + walkthrough.
+- **2026-11-15** — re-test (retainer).
+
+All dates are **provisional** until a vendor is selected.
+
+### 6.4 Vendor shortlist (candidates to approach)
+
+We will request proposals from at least 3 of the following (final shortlist
+to be confirmed with management):
+
+1. **Securix** (DK) — boutique, OWASP ASVS-aligned, good fit for our size.
+2. **Pentest People** (UK / EU) — mid-tier, mobile capability.
+3. **NCC Group / nCC / NowSecure** (international) — heavier, good brand
+   for enterprise due-diligence.
+4. **Curity** (SE) — strong API / OAuth expertise, fits our auth model.
+5. **Deutsche Cyber AG / similar Nordic boutique** — fallback.
+
+Procurement will evaluate on: relevant references (Logistics / IoT / payment),
+ASVS/MASVS familiarity, daily rate, lead time, report quality, re-test terms.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Pre-engagement hardening checklist (for engineering, run in parallel)
+
+We should land these before the vendor starts — they reduce noise and let
+the vendor focus on real issues:
+
+- [ ] HSTS preload submitted; `Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload`
+- [ ] CSP `default-src 'self'` baseline, no `unsafe-inline`; report-only first
+- [ ] All cookies `Secure; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax` (or `Strict` for backoffice)
+- [ ] CSRF token on every state-changing route; verified for Stripe / Edge
+      Gateway webhooks
+- [ ] Webhook signature verification on Stripe, Shelly, Edge Gateway
+- [ ] Rate-limit on auth, password reset, and OTP endpoints
+- [ ] Sub-user privilege model re-verified against `subusersRoute.php`
+- [ ] File-server (`file_server.php`) path-traversal tests in CI
+- [ ] SCA in CI: `composer audit` and `npm audit --omit=dev` blocking
+      high+ vulns
+- [ ] Mobile: `allowFileAccess=false`, mixed content disabled, JS interfaces
+      removed
+- [ ] Secrets: no production keys in repo (`git log -S` audit)
+
+This list is also the basis for re-test acceptance criteria.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Open questions for management
+
+1. Confirm total budget cap (recommend ≤ 220 000 DKK + 25 000 retainer).
+2. Confirm legal/procurement owner and contract template.
+3. Confirm whether to require a Danish-language final report (recommended).
+4. Confirm re-test budget is approved up-front, or per-finding.
+5. Confirm we are comfortable with the 12-day estimate, or want a lighter
+   6-day "API + SPA only" first pass.
