Instances were started by hand and updated by hand, so they drifted behind
master silently. Now: PM2 supervises the dashboard and the clicker, a logon
task brings them up, and a 5-minute task pulls, rebuilds and restarts when
master moves.
Restarting on every push is only safe because the scheduler now survives it.
It was pure in-memory state (_global.__autoTrader), so any restart silently
stopped automated trading with the dashboard simply showing it as off. It now
mirrors running/action/symbol/stopAfterAll to the settings table, and
resumeSchedulerIfPersisted() picks it back up from the getClients() bootstrap.
No sync-wait was needed there: tick() already skips while a client reports
!syncComplete and while any account holds a position.
A failed build is never deployed — the build runs before anything restarts, so
a broken push leaves the previous build serving.
start-all and update-check both warm the app with a request afterwards. That is
load-bearing: getClients() is lazily bootstrapped, so until something makes an
HTTP request the Tradovate clients, the reporter and the resumed schedule never
start. That was already true of manual restarts.
Logic lives in Node so a macOS or Linux port only needs an equivalent of
install-autostart.ps1. Python deps are hash-guarded, so the common path is one
hash and one import with no network, and failure is non-fatal since only the
clicker needs them.

Builds the pipeline the autobuyer needs: see the page, find an element,
click it.
extension/ — MV3 Chromium extension. Polls /api/autobuyer/status and,
while on, scrapes the target tab's HTML and posts it back. Also serves
locate requests: focuses the window, scrolls the element into view, and
reports its position. host_permissions is scoped to tradeify plus
localhost so it cannot read other sites — an empty target pattern would
otherwise capture whatever tab happened to be active, including banking
or mail.
app/api/autobuyer/ — status toggle, capture store, and the locate request
queue. CORS is open because the extension's origin changes every time an
unpacked extension is reloaded.
app/autobuyer/page.tsx — ON switch, source view (default) and a rendered
view. The render uses sandbox="allow-scripts" without allow-same-origin:
the page's own JS is needed because sites ship content at opacity:0 and
fade it in, but the frame must not reach the dashboard's same-origin API
routes, which serve firm credentials.
clicker/ — Python CLI. Asks the extension where a selector is, adds the
element rect to the window's screen position and the browser chrome
height to get desktop coordinates, then clicks with a human motion model
(curved path, eased velocity, occasional overshoot, dwell before press).
Raises the browser application first, since macOS consumes a click on an
unfocused window rather than delivering it.
Refuses to click when the element is covered by an overlay, when the
coordinates fall off-screen, or when the browser cannot be confirmed
frontmost.
Verified: API round-trips, capture pruning, locate claim-once semantics,
motion geometry and timing, and focus activation — the last two against
stubs, since pyautogui and pyobjc are not installed here. NOT verified
end to end: Chrome is still running a stale build of the extension, so a
locate request has never completed against a real page and no real click
has been sent.

- Replace fill/ldeps and fill/list approaches with Tradovate reports API
- Add bearer auth to getreport polling (root cause of prior 404s)
- Use endDate = tomorrow to ensure current-session fills are included
- Count all traded days when minDayPnL is 0, otherwise count days >= minDayPnL
- Add PATCH /api/debug endpoint for proxying raw Tradovate API calls
