## 📦 What Has Been Implemented

All the following features from the production roadmap have been implemented:

### ✅ Phase 1: Foundation - Cost & Security Controls (High Priority 🔴)

#### 1. **Cost Management Module** (`utils/cost_tracker.py`)
Tracks API token usage and costs to prevent budget overruns.

**What it does:**
- Extracts token counts from every Gemini API response
- Calculates costs based on Gemini 2.5 Flash pricing ($0.075 per 1M input tokens, $0.30 per 1M output tokens)
- Logs all usage to `logs/usage.jsonl` with timestamps
- Tracks daily and monthly usage statistics
- Enforces budget caps (blocks service when exceeded)
- Generates usage reports

**How to use it:**
1. Set budget limits in `config.py`:
   - `DAILY_QUERY_LIMIT`: Maximum queries per day (default: 200)
   - `MONTHLY_BUDGET_USD`: Monthly budget cap (default: $50)
   - `DAILY_BUDGET_WARNING`: Warning threshold (default: $5)

2. View usage stats in the sidebar by checking "📊 Show Usage Stats"

3. Generate reports manually:
   ```python
   from utils.cost_tracker import CostTracker
   tracker = CostTracker()
   print(tracker.generate_daily_report())
   print(tracker.generate_monthly_report(2024, 12))
   ```

#### 2. **Rate Limiting System** (`utils/rate_limiter.py`)
Prevents abuse through configurable rate limits.

**What it does:**
- Tracks queries per session using sliding time windows
- Enforces hourly limits (default: 20 queries per hour)
- Enforces daily limits (default: 200 queries per 24 hours)
- Shows warnings when approaching limits (at 80% by default)
- Blocks queries when limits exceeded with friendly messages
- Logs rate limit violations

**How to use it:**
1. Configure limits in `config.py`:
   - `RATE_LIMIT_PER_HOUR`: Queries per hour (default: 20)
   - `RATE_LIMIT_PER_DAY`: Queries per day (default: 200)
   - `RATE_LIMIT_WARNING_THRESHOLD`: When to warn (default: 0.8 = 80%)

2. Users will automatically see warnings like:
   - "⚠️ You have 4 questions remaining this hour"
   - "🕐 Rate limit reached! Please wait 15 minutes..."

#### 3. **Security Module** (`utils/security.py`)
Validates and sanitizes user input to prevent attacks.

**What it does:**
- Checks input length (1-2000 characters by default)
- Detects prompt injection attempts ("ignore previous instructions", etc.)
- Blocks suspicious patterns (script tags, template injection, etc.)
- Detects excessive special characters
- Logs all security violations for review

**How to use it:**
1. Configure limits in `config.py`:
   - `MAX_INPUT_LENGTH`: Maximum characters (default: 2000)
   - `MIN_INPUT_LENGTH`: Minimum characters (default: 1)

2. Security is automatic - invalid inputs are rejected with user-friendly messages

3. Review security logs in `logs/security.jsonl` to monitor threats

#### 4. **Alert System** (`utils/alerts.py`)
Sends push notifications for critical events using ntfy.sh.

**What it does:**
- Sends push notifications to your phone/browser via ntfy.sh (free, no signup)
- Alerts for rate limit violations
- Alerts for cost threshold breaches
- Alerts for suspicious activity
- Alerts for error spikes
- Supports priority levels (min, low, default, high, urgent)

**How to set it up:**

1. **Subscribe to notifications:**
   - Option A (Browser): Go to `https://ntfy.sh/YOUR-TOPIC-NAME` and click "Subscribe"
   - Option B (Mobile App):
     - Install ntfy app (iOS/Android)
     - Add subscription with your topic name

2. **Choose a SECURE topic name:**
   - ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Use a random, hard-to-guess name for security!
   - ✅ Good: `hickeylab-alerts-x9k2m7a4`
   - ❌ Bad: `hickeylab-alerts` (anyone can subscribe)

3. **Configure the topic:**
   - Set in `config.py`: `NTFY_TOPIC = "your-topic-name"`
   - Or set environment variable: `NTFY_TOPIC=your-topic-name`

4. **Test it:**
   ```bash
   python -c "from utils.alerts import AlertSystem; AlertSystem().test_alert()"
   ```
   Or:
   ```bash
   curl -d "Test alert" ntfy.sh/your-topic-name
   ```

**What you'll be notified about:**
- ⚠️ User hits rate limit
- 💰 Daily/monthly cost thresholds (80%, 100%)
- 🔍 Suspicious activity detected
- 🚨 Service paused due to budget limits

#### 6. **Conversation Context**
Maintains context across multiple messages for better responses.

**What it does:**
- Includes last 5 exchanges in each query (configurable)
- Allows follow-up questions to reference previous messages
- Example:
  - User: "What is CODEX?"
  - Assistant: [explains CODEX]
  - User: "How does it compare to IBEX?"
  - Assistant: [compares CODEX (from context) to IBEX]

**How to configure:**
- Adjust `CONVERSATION_HISTORY_LENGTH` in `config.py` (default: 5)

#### 7. **Enhanced System Prompt**
Improved instructions for better response quality.

**What's improved:**
- Conversation context awareness
- Response structure guidelines (2-4 paragraphs for complex topics)
- Specific citation instructions
- Technical term explanation requirements
- Grounding in knowledge base (no hallucinations)

### ✅ Phase 3: User Experience (Low Priority 🟢)

#### 8. **Suggested Questions**
Shows starter questions when chat is empty.

**What it does:**
- Displays 4 suggested questions as clickable buttons
- Questions are configured in `config.py`
- Helps new users get started

**How to customize:**
- Edit `SUGGESTED_QUESTIONS` in `config.py`

#### 9. **Privacy Notice**

## ⚙️ Configuration Reference

All configuration is in `config.py`. Key settings:

### Cost Management:
```python
DAILY_QUERY_LIMIT = 200           # Max queries per day
MONTHLY_BUDGET_USD = 50.0         # Hard budget cap
DAILY_BUDGET_WARNING = 5.0        # Alert threshold
```

### Rate Limiting:
```python
RATE_LIMIT_PER_HOUR = 20          # Queries per hour
RATE_LIMIT_PER_DAY = 200          # Queries per 24 hours
RATE_LIMIT_WARNING_THRESHOLD = 0.8  # Warn at 80%
```

### Security:
```python
MAX_INPUT_LENGTH = 2000           # Max characters
MIN_INPUT_LENGTH = 1              # Min characters
```

### Alerts:
```python
NTFY_TOPIC = ""                   # Your ntfy.sh topic
ALERTS_ENABLED = True             # Enable/disable
```

### Response Quality:
```python
CONVERSATION_HISTORY_LENGTH = 5   # Messages of context
ENHANCED_SYSTEM_PROMPT = "..."   # Full prompt in file
```

### UI/UX:
```python
SUGGESTED_QUESTIONS = [...]       # Starter questions
PRIVACY_NOTICE = "..."           # Privacy text
```

## 🔧 Troubleshooting

### Logs not being created:
- Check file permissions
- Ensure `logs/` directory is not in `.gitignore` for deployment
- HuggingFace Spaces may not persist logs across restarts

### Notifications not working:
- Verify `NTFY_TOPIC` is set correctly
- Test with: `curl -d "test" ntfy.sh/your-topic`
- Check you're subscribed to the right topic
- Ensure `ALERTS_ENABLED = True` in config

### Rate limits too strict/lenient:
- Adjust `RATE_LIMIT_PER_HOUR` and `RATE_LIMIT_PER_DAY` in `config.py`
- Changes take effect on app restart

### Budget exceeded too quickly:
- Review `logs/usage.jsonl` for unusual activity
- Check if there's an attack (many rapid queries)
- Adjust `MONTHLY_BUDGET_USD` if legitimate traffic

### Conversation context not working:
- Verify `CONVERSATION_HISTORY_LENGTH > 0`
- Check that messages are being stored in `st.session_state.messages`
