Kacper 7a8cf2037c v1.3.0
- Snipe-IT asset inventory integration (Admin > Integracje), optional and off
  by default: connect by API address + personal token (+ SSL-verification
  bypass). Three independent toggles: client can pick which of their own
  Snipe-IT assets a ticket concerns (scoped to admin-selected subcategories,
  empty = never shows), operator sees the requester's assets in a ticket-view
  sidebar, operator can search the whole inventory from that same sidebar (not
  a separate page) for shared equipment. Assets shown as "numer środka - numer
  seryjny - producent model" + category; a linked asset's live status is
  fetched fresh on the ticket page, and unlinking stays available to an
  operator even with both view/search toggles off.
- AI summary: a "Wygeneruj teraz" button for an immediate on-demand refresh,
  plus a new admin toggle to regenerate right after every new reply/note
  instead of only on the next scheduled sweep. The transcript sent to the
  model now also includes the ticket's own opening body, fixing summaries
  missing the original request on long threads.
- Fixed: the status dropdown in the operator ticket view could keep showing
  the pre-change status after a status-changing quick action until the next
  page load (Livewire/Alpine-morph quirk for wire:change-bound selects).
- Docs: README/ARCHITECTURE/CHANGELOG/install/wiki updated for all of the
  above, including correcting the AI-summary refresh description left over
  from the 1.2.1 release notes.

# Architecture
Server-rendered Laravel + Livewire app (no SPA/API-driven frontend for the app
itself — the REST API in `routes/api.php` exists purely for external
integrations). See [README.md](README.md) for the feature list and tech stack;
this doc covers how the pieces fit together.
## Request flow
1. `routes/web.php` gates every area behind `auth` + a role middleware
(`role:client`, `role:operator`, `role:admin``App\Http\Middleware\EnsureRole`),
which checks the role against `$user->roles`. A user can hold multiple roles at
once; the router just requires *one* of the listed roles per route group.
2. Each route resolves to a full-page Livewire component under
`app/Livewire/{Client,Operator,Admin,Auth}/` — there are no traditional
controllers rendering Blade views for these areas (the REST API in
`routes/api.php` is the exception, backed by `app/Http/Controllers/Api/`).
3. Livewire components call into `app/Services/TicketService.php` for anything
that mutates ticket state (create/transition/reply/notify) rather than
mutating models directly — keep that convention when adding new mutations so
notification/history/SLA side effects stay in one place.
4. `App\Providers\AppServiceProvider::boot()` runs a settings override pass on
every request (`applyLdapSettingsOverride`, `applyMailSettingsOverride`,
`applySessionSettingsOverride`, `applyTimezoneSettingsOverride`) — see
"Settings override" below.
## Data model
Core tables/models (`app/Models/`):
```
Category ─< Subcategory ─< CustomField (per-subcategory custom fields)
└──< Ticket >── Team (subcategory routes to a team)
├──< TicketMessage (public replies + internal notes)
├──< TicketAttachment
├──< TicketHistory
├── customer/assignee → User
├── status → Status (fixed stages: new/open/closed)
├── priority → Priority → SlaRule (response/resolution minutes)
└── csat_rating/csat_comment/csat_rated_at (nullable — set once, on close)
User ─< UserFieldValue >─ UserField
User ─< SavedQueueView (operator's own saved queue filter/sort/column presets)
User ─< notifications (Laravel's database channel — polymorphic, morph-mapped as 'user')
ApiClient (Sanctum token owner, ability-scoped)
Setting (single-row-per-key config store, see below)
ReplyQuickAction, ResponseTemplate, EmailTemplate, NotificationSetting
```
`tickets.subject`/`tickets.body` and `ticket_messages.body` carry a MySQL/MariaDB
`FULLTEXT` index (added in a later migration, MySQL-only — absent on the sqlite
connection the test suite runs on) — `Ticket::scopeSearch()` uses
`whereFullText()` when the active connection is `mysql` and falls back to a
portable `LIKE` otherwise, so the same call site works in both places.
`Ticket` (`app/Models/Ticket.php`) is the largest model — it owns SLA math
(`slaInfo()`, `isOverdue()`, `resolutionDeadline()`), status/priority display
helpers (`statusLabel()`, `tagStyleFromColor()`), operator-visibility scoping
(`scopeVisibleToOperator`, `isVisibleToOperator` — a team member sees their team's
queue + unassigned + anything assigned to them, an admin sees everything), and
work-timer tracking (`timerElapsedSeconds()`). Keep ticket-shaped logic here
rather than spreading it across Livewire components.
## Ticket numbering & URLs
A ticket carries three distinct identifiers, each with a different job:
- **`id`** — the DB primary key. Never shown to users; the REST API
(`routes/api.php`) is deliberately pinned to it (`{ticket:id}` explicit
binding on every `{ticket}` route) so external integrations have a stable
contract regardless of the numbering settings below.
- **`number`** — a plain sequential string (`Ticket::nextNumber()`, max+1
starting at 1001), unique but otherwise unremarkable. Backs `scopeSearch()`
and the numeric sort in `Operator/Queue.php` regardless of display mode.
- **`checksum`** — a 6-digit HMAC-derived value (salted with `app.key`,
keyed off `id`), assigned once in a `Ticket::booted()` `created` listener
and never changed afterward. Collisions are handled for real, not just
assumed away: `Ticket::generateUniqueChecksum()` walks a nonce forward
until the candidate is free (checked against the DB), and the column has a
`unique()` constraint as a hard backstop.
`Ticket::displayNumber()`/`formattedNumber()` pick between `number` (zero-padded
to `Settings::get('ticket_number_min_length')`) and `checksum` based on
`Settings::bool('ticket_number_obfuscate')` — the "Ukryj kolejność zgłoszeń"
toggle in Admin > Konfiguracja. `Ticket` also overrides `getRouteKey()` and
`resolveRouteBinding()` to mirror that same choice, so **the web routes**
(`routes/web.php`, all plain `{ticket}` implicit bindings — no explicit field)
resolve and generate URLs against whichever column is currently the display
number: flip the setting and both the visible number *and* every link
(`route('client.ticket', $ticket)` etc.) switch together, and a bookmarked URL
built under the old mode stops resolving. This is why the API routes need the
explicit `{ticket:id}` override — without it, the same global `getRouteKey()`
change would silently start requiring `number`/`checksum` in API path params
too, breaking the documented `integer` "Ticket id" contract.
The `{numer}` placeholder available in admin-editable e-mail templates
(Admin > Szablony e-mail / Wyzwalacze) resolves to `formattedNumber()`
*without* `displayNumber()`'s prefix — those templates already hardcode their
own `#{numer}`, so adding the prefix there too would double it up or clash
with a non-default prefix.
A ticket route binding that resolves to nothing (most commonly: the ticket
was deleted while someone had it open, and a later request — typically
Livewire's own "model missing during hydration" recovery, which does a full
`window.location.reload()` of the same page — hits `{ticket}` again) no
longer surfaces Laravel's default 404 page. `bootstrap/app.php` registers a
`NotFoundHttpException` render callback (note: `Handler::prepareException()`
already converts `ModelNotFoundException` into `NotFoundHttpException`,
wrapped as `getPrevious()`, *before* any render callback runs — a callback
typed against `ModelNotFoundException` itself would never match) that
redirects to `operator.queue`/`client.dashboard` instead, for any
authenticated request under `operator/*`/`client/*`.
That global handler only ever sees a full HTTP request (a page load/reload),
not Livewire's own AJAX update endpoint (`/livewire/update`, which doesn't
match the `operator/*`/`client/*` path check) — so it doesn't cover an
operator who already has a ticket open when it's deleted, or whose team gets
reassigned (by anyone, including via their own action — see "Teams" in
[README.md](README.md)) to one outside their visible scope
(`Ticket::isVisibleToOperator()`) mid-session. `Operator\TicketShow` handles
that case itself: a Livewire component's typed public model property
(`public Ticket $ticket`) is re-fetched by id on every subsequent request via
`firstOrFail()` (`Livewire\Features\SupportModels\ModelSynth::hydrate()`),
which throws `ModelNotFoundException` *before* any of the component's own
method code runs if the row is gone — too early for an ordinary try/catch
inside an action method to ever catch. The component instead defines
Livewire's `exception($e, $stopPropagation)` lifecycle hook (called for any
exception raised anywhere in the component's request lifecycle, hydration
included) to catch that case and redirect. The narrower case — ticket still
exists but is no longer visible, e.g. after a team reassignment — doesn't
throw at all, so it's caught separately: `refreshOrRedirectAway()` re-checks
`isVisibleToOperator()` after every live-update refresh
(`onQueueChanged()`/`refreshTicketData()`) and after the operator's own
`setTeam()` call, redirecting immediately rather than leaving them on a
ticket they can no longer legitimately keep viewing.
## Roles & permissions
`$user->roles` reads/writes as a plain array (`['client', 'operator']`), but
it's a **virtual attribute** (`User::getAttribute()`/`setAttribute()`
overrides) backed by a real `roles` lookup table + `role_user` pivot, not an
actual column — assigning `'roles' => [...]` on create/update stashes the keys
until the model's `saved` hook resolves them against `roles.key` and syncs the
pivot. This matters for tests/seeders: a role key must exist in the `roles`
table *before* it can be assigned this way, or the assignment silently becomes
a no-op (`Tests\TestCase::setUp()` seeds the 3 fixed roles for exactly this
reason, since almost every test creates a role-bearing user). Checked via
`EnsureRole` at the route level. Every account gets `client` by default
(`App\Ldap\Handlers\AssignDefaultRole` for LDAP-provisioned accounts); staff
switch areas via the header role switcher, but always land on `/client` first
after login.
## Authentication
`config/auth.php` defines the default `web` guard against an LDAP-backed user
provider (LdapRecord); a plain Eloquent provider is kept alongside it only for
local tooling/tests that don't hit a directory. In production, LDAP bind is the
primary path; the local fallback account (`admin@example.com` from the seeder)
authenticates against a local password when the LDAP bind doesn't match — this is
the account used for first login after a fresh install (see
[install.md](install.md)).
`app/Ldap/Handlers/` hooks into LdapRecord's import/sync events:
`AssignDefaultRole` grants the `client` role to new LDAP-provisioned accounts,
`SyncUserFieldsFromLdap` keeps `UserFieldValue` rows in sync with directory
attributes.
## Settings override ("live config")
`App\Support\Settings` (`app/Support/Settings.php`) is a cached key/value reader
over the `settings` table, with hardcoded defaults for every key (company name,
LDAP/SMTP connection details, attachment limits, session lifetime, timezone,
branding/email HTML, etc.). Admin > Konfiguracja (general/attachments/session),
Poczta (SMTP) and Integracje (LDAP, BookStack) all write to this same table, and
`AppServiceProvider::boot()` re-applies the relevant subset of it over
`config()` on every request — meaning **`Setting` rows win over `.env`** for
LDAP, mail, session lifetime and timezone once they're non-empty. This is by
design (lets an admin reconfigure LDAP/SMTP without a redeploy) but is also the
source of the "seeded placeholder overrides real `.env` values" gotcha
documented in [install.md](install.md) — anything touching LDAP/mail/session/
timezone config should go through `Settings`, not raw `config()`/`.env` reads.
`settingsTableUsable()` gates all four overrides on whether the `settings`
table is safe to query yet — but is deliberately scoped to just the `migrate`
command family (`runningConsoleCommand('migrate', 'migrate:fresh', ...)`), not
"any console command". It used to blanket-skip for every console invocation
(exempting only unit tests), which silently broke every scheduled command's
outbound mail: `AppServiceProvider::boot()` runs on each process including
`schedule:run`-invoked commands, so `tickets:check-sla-breaches`,
`automation:run-rules` and `emails:fetch-imap` (below) all sent notifications
through whatever `.env`'s `MAIL_MAILER` happened to be (`log`, i.e. nowhere)
instead of the admin-configured SMTP server — with no error, since the `log`
mailer never throws. If a scheduled command's notification/lookup ever again
seems to silently use `.env` defaults instead of `Settings`, check here first.
## Notifications
`TicketService::notify(Ticket $ticket, string $triggerKey)` is the single
fan-out point for every ticket lifecycle event (see the `NotificationSetting`
rows seeded per trigger key) — it resolves the configured recipient
(`$ticket->assignee` or `$ticket->customer`) to a real `User` when one exists
and calls `$user->notify(new TicketNotification(...))`, which fires **both**
the `mail` and `database` channels (`App\Notifications\TicketNotification`) —
there's no separate on/off switch for in-app vs. e-mail, the same
`NotificationSetting.enabled` flag gates both. A guest customer with no
account still gets routed anonymously (`Notification::route('mail', $email)`,
mail-only — the database channel needs a real notifiable to attach the row
to). `TicketNotification` is constructed with an explicit `$recipientRole`
('client'|'operator') rather than inferring it from the notifiable's roles,
since one account can hold both — this decides whether the ticket link (both
the e-mail body and the in-app notification's `url`) points into `/client/...`
or `/operator/...`.
## Real-time broadcasting (Reverb)
Two private channels, authorized in `routes/channels.php`:
- **`operator.queue`** — one shared channel for every operator/admin (not
scoped per team/ticket), so the receiving `Operator\Queue` component just
re-queries through its own already-correct `Ticket::scopeVisibleToOperator()`
on any event instead of the channel-auth callback needing to duplicate that
ACL logic. Payloads stay minimal (ticket id + reason + actor id) for the
same reason.
- **`ticket.{id}`** — per-ticket channel for the message thread and detail
changes, authorized for an operator with `isVisibleToOperator()` **or** the
ticket's own customer (OR, not else-if — the one real account in this app
holds both roles at once). An internal note broadcasts on the same channel
a client can subscribe to, but the payload never carries the message body —
each side's Livewire component only ever re-queries whatever its own
already-authorized computed property returns, so there's nothing to leak.
Two events, both `App\Events\TicketQueueChanged` (broadcasts on **both**
channels above — a status/priority/team/assignee change needs to reach a
client watching their own ticket too) and `App\Events\TicketMessagePosted`
(broadcasts on `ticket.{id}` only). Both implement `ShouldBroadcastNow`, not
`ShouldBroadcast` — this app runs with no queue worker by design (see
`TicketNotification`), so broadcasting happens synchronously within the
request like everything else here. `TicketService` dispatches both from every
ticket-mutating method (create/setStatus/setPriority/setAssignee/setTeam/
operatorReply/operatorNote/clientReply/apiMessage/merge); the two ad hoc
delete call sites (`Operator\Queue::confirmDeleteSelected()`,
`Operator\TicketShow::confirmDeleteTicket()`) dispatch `TicketQueueChanged`
directly since there's no `TicketService::delete()` to hook into.
Browser side, `resources/js/echo.js` bridges Reverb events into plain
Livewire events (`Livewire.dispatch('queue-changed', ...)` /
`'ticket-message-posted'`) rather than using the `#[On('echo-private:...')]`
attribute directly — version-agnostic, and each Livewire component just
declares a plain `#[On(...)]` listener that no-ops if the payload's `actorId`
matches the viewer's own id (self-echo suppression) or the ticket id doesn't
match the component's own ticket. Two easy-to-reintroduce bugs to know about
if "nothing updates live" ever comes back:
1. **CSRF on `/broadcasting/auth`.** Echo's private-channel subscription
POSTs there under the app's normal CSRF middleware; the `Echo` constructor
must pass `auth.headers['X-CSRF-TOKEN']` (read from the `<meta
name="csrf-token">` tag in `layouts/app.blade.php`) or every subscription
attempt is silently rejected.
2. **Script load order.** `resources/js/app.js` (which imports `echo.js`)
loads via `@vite` as `type="module"`, which the HTML spec defers until
after the document is parsed — meaning Livewire's own bootstrap script
(`@livewireScripts`, a plain synchronous `<script>` near the end of
`<body>`) has already run by the time `echo.js` executes. Don't gate
anything in `echo.js` behind `document.addEventListener('livewire:init',
...)` — that event fires as part of Livewire's own (earlier) script, so a
listener registered this late permanently misses it. The one place this
still matters is the per-ticket subscription triggered from a Livewire
`@script` block in the ticket-show views, which can run before or after
`echo.js` depending on exactly when Livewire processes it — it queues the
ticket id onto `window.__pendingTicketChannelIds` if `echo.js` hasn't
defined `window.subscribeToTicketChannel` yet, and `echo.js` flushes that
queue once it has.
As a defense against a dropped websocket connection (backgrounded tab,
network blip), the operator queue and both ticket-detail views also poll
themselves via a small Alpine countdown calling `$wire.refreshQueue()` /
`$wire.refreshTicketData()` — broadcasting is best-effort, not the only way
these views ever update. The countdown badge is also clickable
(`x-on:click="remaining = total; $wire.refresh...()"` on the same element
the `x-init="setInterval(...)"` already lives on) to fetch immediately and
reset the countdown, rather than only ever firing on its own schedule. Its
interval — like the notification bell's `wire:poll` and the 4 scheduled
commands below — reads from `Settings` (`refresh_queue_seconds`/
`refresh_ticket_view_seconds`/`refresh_notifications_seconds`, admin-editable
in Konfiguracja) rather than a hardcoded number: `wire:poll.{{ $seconds }}s`
and Alpine's `x-data="{ remaining: {{ $seconds }}, ... }"` both just
interpolate to plain text in the rendered HTML, so a `Settings`-sourced value
works exactly like a literal one would.
A third private channel, **`App.Models.User.{id}`** (Laravel's default
per-notifiable convention, kept verbatim rather than a shorter alias),
carries realtime bell delivery: `AppServiceProvider::broadcastBellNotifications()`
listens for the framework's own `NotificationSent` event, and — only for the
`database` channel of a `TicketNotification` — dispatches `NotificationCreated`
on the recipient's own channel. This is a single choke point rather than
threading a broadcast call into every `TicketService` notification call site
(including the Trigger engine's `send_notification` action, below).
`resources/js/echo.js` bridges it into a `bell-notification-received` Livewire
event (refreshing `NotificationBell` instantly) and, if the viewer opted in via
the toggle on `/settings/notifications`, also raises a native in-tab
`Notification` popup — no service worker or push subscription, so this only
fires while the tab is open, same limitation as the other Echo listeners here.
## SLA
`SlaRule` holds per-priority response/resolution targets in minutes. The
scheduled command `tickets:check-sla-breaches` (registered in
`routes/console.php`, default every 15 minutes, interval admin-configurable —
see "Configurable scheduled-command intervals" below) flags overdue tickets
and can notify the assigned operator — see [install.md](install.md) for
why this requires an external cron entry (the Docker image ships no
cron/supervisor of its own).
## SLA automation rules
`AutomationRule` (label, `condition_minutes`, optional `scope_priority_key`/
`scope_subcategory_id`/`scope_team_id`, `action_type` + `action_value`) lets an
admin configure "if a ticket has been silent for N minutes, change its
priority/status/team/assignee" without code — Admin > Automatyzacja SLA. The
scheduled command `automation:run-rules` (default also every 15 minutes,
independently configurable) evaluates every enabled rule against
`Ticket.last_customer_activity_at` (falling back to
`created_at` if never set — mirrors how `resolutionDeadline()` treats a
missing `SlaRule` as "no SLA" rather than backfilling one), and applies a
match through the same `TicketService` setters a manual operator action would
use, so the automated change gets the same history entry, notification, and
broadcast for free. Idempotency is a per-(rule, ticket) row in
`automation_rule_ticket_logs`, cleared by `TicketService` whenever the silence
that triggered it is broken (a fresh `clientReply()`) or the ticket
closes/reopens (`setStatus()`) — so a rule can fire again after a new period
of silence instead of being permanently latched. Multiple matching rules on
the same ticket in the same run all fire independently, in `id` order; a rule
that closes the ticket doesn't block earlier-ordered rules already applied
this run, but a later rule's own query naturally excludes an already-closed
ticket.
## Configurable scheduled-command intervals
All 4 scheduled commands (`tickets:check-sla-breaches`, `automation:run-rules`,
`emails:fetch-imap`, `ai:run-ticket-automation`) have an admin-configurable
interval (Admin > Konfiguracja — `schedule_sla_check_minutes`/
`schedule_automation_rules_minutes`/`schedule_imap_fetch_minutes`/
`schedule_ai_automation_minutes`), defaulting to their previous hardcoded
values (15/15/5/5 minutes). `routes/console.php` registers all 4 as
`->everyMinute()->when(fn () => Settings::dueEveryMinutes($key, $default))`
rather than an eagerly-built `->cron('*/N * * * *')` string — this is a
deliberate choice, not just a style preference: `routes/console.php` is
`require`'d on **every** artisan boot (`migrate`, `tinker`, `php artisan
test`, not just `schedule:run`, since it's wired in via `bootstrap/app.php`'s
`commands:` key), so anything at its *top level* that queries the database
would run before a fresh/test database necessarily has the `settings` table
yet — an early version of this feature that built the cron string eagerly at
the top level broke exactly this way. A closure passed to `->when()` is only
ever evaluated later, when `schedule:run` actually processes due events, so
`Settings::dueEveryMinutes()` never runs at boot. One visible side effect:
`php artisan schedule:list` shows `* * * * *` for all four regardless of
their actual configured interval, since the real interval only exists inside
the closure — expected, not a bug.
## IMAP e-mail intake
Optional, off by default (`ImapMailbox.enabled` per row — there is no single
global toggle since this is a list of N mailboxes, not a `Settings`
singleton). Split across three layers, mirroring the plan that shipped it:
- **`App\Models\ImapMailbox`** — one row per polled mailbox (host/port/
encryption/username, `password` cast `'encrypted'` — the first model in
this codebase to use Laravel's native encrypted cast rather than the
manual `Crypt::` pattern `Settings` uses, since this is a list of records
rather than key/value config). `default_subcategory_id` XOR
`default_category_id` (enforced by the admin form's single combined
selector, not a DB constraint) route new tickets; `category_id` only ever
gets populated when there's no subcategory to derive one from (see
`Ticket::categoryLabel()`/`TicketService::create()`).
- **`App\Services\ImapMessageClassifier`** — pure decision logic, no IMAP
connection, fully Pest-testable: `rejectionReason()` (auto-reply/bounce
detection via `Auto-Submitted`/`Precedence`/`X-Autoreply` headers + EN/PL
subject phrases + a per-mailbox sender blocklist), `matchTicket()`
(extracts every digit run ≥4 chars from the subject — after stripping
`Re:`/`Odp:`/`Fwd:`/`FW:`/`Aw:` — and tries each through
`Ticket::resolveRouteBinding()`, so it transparently matches either the
plain sequential number or the obfuscated checksum, whichever mode is
active; no changes to outbound mail were needed since every notification
subject already carries `{numer}`), `isSenderAllowed()` (mirrors
`Landing::emailIsKnown()` — enforces `restrict_tickets_to_ldap` for e-mail
exactly like the guest web form), `resolveSender()` (existing local user,
or `LdapUserProvisioner::findOrCreateByEmail()` if enabled).
- **`App\Services\ImapMailboxFetcher`** — the I/O layer (`webklex/php-imap`,
a pure-PHP IMAP client with no `ext-imap` dependency — confirmed available
extensions were sufficient, no Dockerfile change needed). Fetches
`whereUnseen()` per mailbox, flags/moves a message **before** creating the
ticket (a crash mid-batch then risks a "processed but no ticket" message —
visible and easy to fix manually — rather than a duplicate ticket on the
next run), converts attachments to `UploadedFile` via a temp file (`$test
= true` bypasses the `is_uploaded_file()` check outside a real HTTP
request) so they flow through the existing `Settings::validateAttachments()`
+ `TicketService::attachFiles()` unchanged. Logs every connection attempt
and per-message decision to a dedicated `imap` log channel
(`storage/logs/imap-*.log`, always `debug` level regardless of the app's
own `LOG_LEVEL` — see `config/logging.php`) since this app commonly runs
at `LOG_LEVEL=error`, which would otherwise silently swallow this
activity entirely.
- One real bug worth remembering if IMAP rejection logic ever seems too
aggressive again: Webklex's `Header::get($name)` returns an *empty*
`Attribute` (not `null`) for a header that isn't present at all, and
`Attribute::first()` on that empty instance is `''`, not `null` — a
naive `$header !== null` check therefore treats *every* message as
carrying *every* header. Guarded in two places: `ImapMailboxFetcher`
only keeps a header value that's non-empty, and
`InboundEmail::header()` itself also treats `''` as absent, so the bug
can't resurface even if some other header source stops filtering.
- **`TicketService::guestReply()`** — the one new method added to the
existing service: a customer reply with no `User` account (mirrors
`clientReply()` — real customer activity, resets SLA silence, fires
`comment_added` so an admin-configured Trigger can reopen a closed ticket
— rather than `apiMessage()`, which tags a system/integration note, not
client content). Both `clientReply()` and `guestReply()` take an optional
trailing `string $source = 'web'`, stored as `TicketMessage.source`
(`null` for `'web'`) — the per-message counterpart to `Ticket.source`,
since a ticket opened on the web can later get an e-mail reply or vice
versa. Both surface as a small mail-icon badge (operator queue: next to
the ticket number; ticket view: per-message in the thread, plus a tag next
to the ticket number in the header).
- **`emails:fetch-imap`** (`app/Console/Commands/FetchImapEmails.php`),
registered in `routes/console.php` with `->withoutOverlapping()` (like
`ai:run-ticket-automation`, unlike the SLA-check/automation-rules
commands — both make real outbound HTTP/IMAP calls per record, so a slow
run risks overlapping the next tick in a way a pure-DB command doesn't).
Early-returns if no `ImapMailbox` is enabled. Also callable directly per
mailbox from Admin > Poczta's "Pobierz teraz" button
(`ImapMailboxFetcher::fetchMailbox()`, bypassing the enabled-only
`fetchAll()` used by the schedule) for on-demand fetching/diagnosis
without shell access.
Requires the same external `schedule:run` cron entry as SLA/automation (see
[install.md](install.md) and the crontab note in
[CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md)) — without it, only the manual "Pobierz teraz" button
does anything.
## API
`routes/api.php` + `app/Http/Controllers/Api/` expose a small ability-scoped REST
surface over Sanctum tokens (`tickets:read`, `tickets:write`,
`dictionaries:read`, `users:read`), issued via admin-managed `ApiClient` records.
Rate limiting is configured per-client (120 req/min keyed by client ID) vs. a
tighter per-IP limit for unauthenticated requests
(`AppServiceProvider::configureApiRateLimiting()`). Interactive docs are
generated by L5-Swagger at `/admin/api-docs`; there is no static Markdown API
reference in-repo.
## Generic AI integration
`App\Services\AiClient` is a small, feature-agnostic wrapper around an
OpenAI-compatible `/chat/completions` endpoint (`chat(array $messages, array
$options = []): ?string`) — works against Groq, OpenAI itself, or a
self-hosted Ollama instance, whichever `ai_base_url` points at.
`Settings`-driven like everything else here: `ai_enabled`, `ai_base_url`,
`ai_api_key` (encrypted, optional — deliberately not required by `enabled()`,
since a self-hosted Ollama instance typically has no auth at all),
`ai_model`, `ai_verify_ssl`. Every call is wrapped in `try/catch(\Throwable)`
and returns `null` on any failure (network, non-2xx, unexpected shape),
matching `BookStackClient`'s safe-default convention — callers are expected
to treat `null` as "AI unavailable" and degrade gracefully rather than throw.
Not tied to any single feature: `BookStackContentTagger`,
`TicketAiTriageService` and `TicketAiSummaryService` (below) are just its
first three consumers, each with their own prompt-building/parsing logic
layered on top rather than baked into the client itself.
## BookStack integration
`App\Services\BookStackClient` is one of three outbound HTTP clients in the
codebase (Laravel's `Http` facade), alongside `AiClient` above and
`SnipeItClient` below — everything else here only ever receives requests.
It's entirely `Settings`-driven, no
`.env`/`config()` involved: `bookstack_enabled`, `bookstack_base_url`,
`bookstack_token_id`/`bookstack_token_secret` (encrypted, same as the
LDAP/SMTP passwords), `bookstack_verify_ssl`, and **two independent**
allow-lists of BookStack shelf IDs — `bookstack_allowed_shelf_ids_creation`
(ticket-wizard suggestions) and `bookstack_allowed_shelf_ids_ticket_view`
(the operator's sidebar on an existing ticket) — `search()` takes a
`$context` (`CONTEXT_CREATION` / `CONTEXT_TICKET_VIEW`) that selects which
one applies. **An empty allow-list means "search nothing"**, not "search
everything" — nothing is ever suggested until an admin explicitly opts
shelves in, independently per context. BookStack has no "which shelf is this
book on" field in its own search response, so `BookStackClient` fetches
`/api/shelves` + `/api/shelves/{id}` once (cached 30 min) into a
shelf→book-ids map, used both to resolve the allow-list to book IDs and to
build the "Shelf > Book" breadcrumb shown next to each suggestion. Per-query
search results are cached 10 minutes, keyed on the query text **and** the
active allow-list, so toggling which shelves are allowed is reflected
immediately instead of serving a pre-change result for up to 10 minutes.
**Content-type filter and "search by" mode**: `bookstack_search_types` is a
comma-separated subset of `BookStackClient::SEARCH_TYPES` (`book`, `page`,
`chapter` — checkboxes in the admin UI, no more single-select "both/page/book"
dropdown), combined into BookStack's own `{type:a|b}` query syntax.
`bookstack_search_by` (`'name'`/`'tags'`/`'both'`) picks between matching the
title (`{in_name:...}`) and matching a tag whose name equals the query
(`[...]` — see BookStack content auto-tagging below for what actually writes
those tags); `'both'` runs one request per mode and merges/dedupes the
results, since BookStack's own query syntax ANDs filters together rather than
OR-ing them, so there's no single-request way to ask for "name OR tag".
`search()` takes both a `$query` (full "Category Subcategory" text, used for
the name-match variant) and an optional `$tagQuery` (bare subcategory name,
used for the tag-match variant) — the two differ because a tag is expected to
hold just the subcategory name, not the combined category+subcategory text.
## BookStack content auto-tagging
`App\Services\BookStackContentTagger` (used by the "Otaguj nową
treść"/"Otaguj wszystko ponownie" buttons on the BookStack admin card and by
`php artisan bookstack:tag-content`) is the reason the tag-based search mode
above has anything to match: it walks every book/chapter/page via
`BookStackClient::listAll()`/`detail()`, builds a Polish prompt naming the
current, live `Subcategory` list as the only allowed vocabulary, and asks
`AiClient` (above) to return which subcategory name(s) fit each item — a
single response per batch of 20 items, to keep prompt size/cost down.
Defensive JSON parsing (`parseAssignments()`) regex-extracts the first
`{...}` block before decoding, so a chatty or malformed response fails just
that one batch (`failed_batches` in the run summary) instead of crashing the
whole pass; every returned label is matched case-insensitively against the
real subcategory list before being trusted, so a hallucinated name is
silently dropped rather than written as a tag. Idempotent by default — an
item already carrying a tag matching a current subcategory name is skipped
unless `--force`/the "wszystko ponownie" button is used — and new tags are
merged into an item's existing tags (`updateTags()` PUTs the whole array;
BookStack has no "append a tag" endpoint), never overwriting unrelated ones.
## Snipe-IT asset inventory integration
`App\Services\SnipeItClient` talks to a Snipe-IT instance's REST API
(`/api/v1/...`, bearer token auth), entirely `Settings`-driven like
`BookStackClient`: `snipeit_enabled`, `snipeit_base_url`,
`snipeit_api_token` (encrypted), `snipeit_verify_ssl`. Every call is wrapped
in `try/catch(\Throwable)` returning `[]`/`null` on failure, same
safe-default convention as `AiClient`/`BookStackClient`. Three independently
toggleable settings gate what a client/operator can actually do with it —
none of them affect `SnipeItClient` itself, only which Livewire methods are
willing to call it:
- `snipeit_client_can_select_asset` (+ `snipeit_client_asset_subcategory_ids`,
a comma-separated allow-list) — gates `Client\NewTicket`'s asset picker.
Mirrors BookStack's shelf allow-lists: an **empty** subcategory list means
the picker never shows for any subcategory, not "every subcategory" —
`NewTicket::snipeitAssets()` checks both the toggle and that the currently
selected `subcategoryId` is in the list before calling
`assetsForEmail()`. `selectCategory()`/`selectSubcategory()` reset any
already-picked asset, so switching to an out-of-scope subcategory can't
silently carry a stale selection through to `submit()`.
- `snipeit_operator_view_requester_assets` — gates the same
`assetsForEmail()` lookup (by the ticket's own `email`, not the viewing
operator's) in `Operator\TicketShow`'s sidebar.
- `snipeit_operator_search_inventory` — gates `searchAssets()`, a free-text
`/hardware?search=` lookup across the *whole* inventory, for linking
equipment the requester doesn't personally own (e.g. a shared printer).
Rendered inline in the same sidebar card as the requester-assets list, not
a separate route/page.
`Operator\TicketShow::linkSnipeitAsset(int $id)` deliberately does **not**
fall back to a direct `SnipeItClient::asset($id)` lookup by id — it only
accepts an id present in `snipeitRequesterAssets`/`snipeitSearchResults`,
and each of those is itself empty unless its own setting above is on. This
means an operator can't link an arbitrary asset through a source the admin
has switched off for them, even by tampering with the Livewire request
payload. `unlinkSnipeitAsset()` has no such gate — clearing an existing link
is a correction, not a new way to browse Snipe-IT, so it stays available
even with both toggles off.
`SnipeItClient::assetsForEmail()` has to resolve an e-mail to a Snipe-IT user
first (`GET /users?search=`, no "assets by e-mail" endpoint exists), then
lists what's checked out to them (`GET /users/{id}/assets`) — cached 5
minutes per e-mail. `normalizeAsset()` is the single place that turns a raw
Snipe-IT hardware row into the shape every caller/view uses (`id`, `label`,
`serial`, `manufacturer`, `model`, `category`, `status`, `url`); `label`
joins whichever of asset tag / serial / "manufacturer model" are actually
present with `" - "`, falling back to `Zasób #{id}` if all three are blank —
Snipe-IT doesn't guarantee any of them are filled in. The `x-snipeit-assets`
Blade component renders that shape everywhere an asset list shows up
(client picker, requester sidebar, search results), with a `card` prop that
skips its own wrapping `<div class="card">` when embedded inside a
caller-provided one (the inventory-search box + its results share one card).
A linked ticket only stores `tickets.snipeit_asset_id` + a cached
`snipeit_asset_name` label (`TicketService::setSnipeitAsset()`, which also
writes a ticket-history line) — no other Snipe-IT fields are persisted.
Anywhere a linked asset's live detail is shown (the "Powiązany sprzęt" card),
it's re-fetched fresh via `SnipeItClient::asset($id)` rather than trusted
from the cache, so a status/reassignment change made directly in Snipe-IT is
reflected immediately; the cached label is only ever the fallback shown when
that live fetch fails (instance unreachable, or the asset was deleted
there).
## AI ticket triage & summary
Two independent services, both consuming `AiClient` above, both run from a
single scheduled command (`ai:run-ticket-automation`) — **never
synchronously at ticket creation**, so an LLM call never adds latency to a
live customer submitting a ticket:
- **`App\Services\TicketAiTriageService`** — a one-shot classification pass
per ticket, gated by 5 independent toggles
(`ai_triage_category_when_missing`/`subcategory_when_category_only`/
`recheck_categorized`/`fix_subject`/`set_priority`). `buildPrompt()` picks
one of 3 mutually-exclusive category scenarios from the ticket's *current*
state (no category/subcategory at all → assign both; category but no
subcategory → pick one within it; already has a subcategory → recheck and
possibly correct), independently of the subject/priority toggles. Every
scanned ticket gets `tickets.ai_triaged_at` stamped exactly once — this is
a one-shot pass, not a continuous recheck, and there's deliberately no
manual per-ticket re-trigger. Resolution is fail-closed the same way as the
BookStack tagger: every value the model returns is matched against the
real category/subcategory/priority vocabulary before being trusted: a
hallucinated or out-of-scope value (e.g. a subcategory claimed under the
wrong category) is silently dropped. Applying changes goes through a new
`TicketService::applyAiTriage(Ticket $ticket, array $changes, array
$historyLines)` — a single `$ticket->update()` for whichever
category/subcategory/subject/priority fields actually changed, one
specific history line per changed field plus a final "Automatyzacja:
klasyfikacja AI" attribution line (mirrors how `RunAutomationRules` logs
its own SLA-automation changes), and `notify()`/`TriggerEngine::handle()`
fired only for the fields that actually changed — deliberately not
composed from the existing `setPriority()`/`updateDetails()` setters, since
one AI pass can touch several fields at once and those would each write
their own generic line and fire notifications per-field instead of once
per pass.
- **`App\Services\TicketAiSummaryService`** — a summary + suggested next
action for **every** ticket (gated by a single `ai_summary_enabled`
toggle), cached on `tickets.ai_summary`/`ai_suggested_action`/
`ai_summary_generated_at` and shown only in the operator ticket view (a
"Podsumowanie AI" sidebar card, lazy-loaded via `wire:init` like the
BookStack suggestions card next to it). `run()` (the scheduled sweep)
regenerates whenever a ticket's latest message postdates its last summary
— deliberately compared against `ticket_messages.created_at`, not
`tickets.updated_at` (which also changes on unrelated actions like a
status/priority edit, which would otherwise trigger spurious
re-summarization on every tick for an active ticket). `buildTranscript()`
includes the ticket's own `body` (the opening description, outside
`ticket_messages`) ahead of the message transcript — needed because that
row would otherwise fall outside `TRANSCRIPT_MESSAGE_LIMIT` (30) on any
thread longer than that, silently dropping the original request from the
prompt. Unlike the triage service, a malformed AI response here leaves the
previous summary untouched rather than stamping "done" — the ticket stays
in the "stale" set and gets retried next run, since this feature is meant
to keep refreshing indefinitely, not run once. The system prompt is
admin-editable (`ai_summary_prompt` setting, plain textarea with a
"Resetuj" button restoring `Settings::default('ai_summary_prompt')`
same pattern as the e-mail footer editor) and asks the model for a small
JSON object (`{"summary": "...", "suggested_action": "..."}`), parsed with
the same defensive regex-extract-then-decode approach used throughout
these AI services.
Besides `run()`'s scheduled sweep, two paths call `generateFor(Ticket
$ticket): bool` directly, bypassing the staleness check entirely:
`Operator\TicketShow::regenerateAiSummary()` (the sidebar's "Wygeneruj
teraz" button, a synchronous Livewire call — its `wire:loading` state covers
the wait, no need to dispatch anything in the background) and a
`TicketMessagePosted` listener registered in
`AppServiceProvider::regenerateAiSummaryOnNewMessage()`, active only when
both `ai_summary_enabled` and `ai_summary_regenerate_on_message` (off by
default) are on. That listener dispatches `App\Jobs\GenerateTicketAiSummaryJob`
via `::dispatchAfterResponse()` rather than the normal queue — deliberately
**not** `ShouldQueue`, since this deployment's queue worker is optional
infrastructure (see install.md) and anything pushed onto the `jobs` table
has no guarantee of ever being picked up; `dispatchAfterResponse()` instead
runs the job in-process right after the triggering HTTP/console response is
sent, needing no worker at all.
Its own interval (`ai:run-ticket-automation`) is admin-configurable the same
way the other 3 scheduled commands are — see "Configurable scheduled-command
intervals" above for the mechanism and a boot-time trap worth knowing about
before touching `routes/console.php` again.
