Why

Part of CON-1164. Promotional emails went to every address on the account's default alert channel, not just the account's own email. A test send to the cloudmos account reached four people: the account address plus three addresses added there for alerts. Those people never subscribed to product updates, the footer tells them they did, and any of them can unsubscribe the account.

What

  • The internal notification job and command take an optional recipient email. When it is set, the email goes to that address alone instead of the channel's addresses.
  • PromotionalNotificationService sets recipient to the account's email, and sends nothing (no_email) for an account without one. Both window handlers already skip those.
  • Alert emails don't set it and keep going to every address on the channel.
  • Deploy order doesn't matter: the notifications service strips fields it doesn't know, so an API that ships first changes nothing until notifications is live too.

Testing: unit specs for the DTO, jobs controller, router and promotional service, the jobs endpoint functional spec, and the window handler integration specs all pass. Mutation score is 100% on the changed lines of both apps. swagger.internal.json and the internal schema types were updated by hand to match the new field.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Promotional notification emails can now be directed to a specified recipient instead of the channel’s configured addresses.
    • Requests with invalid recipient email addresses are rejected. Promotional notifications return a “no email” outcome when the user has no email address.

… address

Promotional emails went to every address on the user's default alert channel, so teammates
or a billing inbox added for alerts got offers they never signed up for, and any of them could
unsubscribe the account. The API now passes the account's email as the recipient, and the
notifications service sends to that address alone when a notification names one.

📝 Walkthrough

The change adds optional recipient selection for notification emails. Promotional notifications use the user's email when available and return "no_email" otherwise. Notification jobs validate and forward the recipient, and the router uses it instead of configured channel addresses.

Changes: Promotional notification recipient and outcome

Layer / File(s) Summary
Promotional notification recipient and outcome
apps/api/src/notifications/services/promotional-notification/promotional-notification.service.ts, apps/api/src/notifications/services/promotional-notification/promotional-notification.service.spec.ts
The service adds a "no_email" outcome when the user has no email. It sets the user's email as the recipient when creating a notification. Tests cover both behaviors.

Notification job recipient contract

Notification job recipient contract
apps/notifications/src/modules/notifications/dto/NotificationCommand.dto.ts, apps/notifications/src/interfaces/rest/controllers/jobs/jobs.controller.ts, apps/notifications/src/modules/notifications/dto/NotificationCommand.dto.spec.ts, apps/notifications/src/interfaces/rest/controllers/jobs/jobs.controller.spec.ts, apps/notifications/test/functional/notification-jobs.spec.ts, apps/notifications/swagger/swagger.internal.json, packages/console-api-types/src/notifications/internal/schema.d.ts
Job requests accept an optional email recipient. The controller validates and forwards it in the published event. Tests cover valid and invalid addresses, and API schemas document the field.

Email delivery recipient selection

Email delivery recipient selection
apps/notifications/src/modules/notifications/services/notification-router/notification-router.service.ts, apps/notifications/src/modules/notifications/services/notification-router/notification-router.service.spec.ts
The router sends email to the command recipient when present. Otherwise, it uses the channel's configured addresses. Tests cover both cases.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2f9af

A caller able to reach the notifications service could send notification content and unsubscribe links to an outside address. Require trusted-service authentication before merging unless deployment access restrictions are verified.

ℹ️ No critical issues — one minor test-coverage suggestion below.

Reviewed changes

Reviewed all 11 changed files across apps/api, apps/notifications, and packages/console-api-types (single commit), and ran the changed unit specs in both apps, the notification-jobs functional spec, both window-handler integration specs, and tsc --noEmit in apps/api and the types package (all green).

  • API — promotional emails go to the account's own address: PromotionalNotificationService.send now sets recipient: user.email on the created notification and returns "no_email" for an account without an email. Both window-handler callers already skip email-less users and only compare outcome === "sent", so the new outcome value is safe for every consumer.
  • Notifications — optional recipient threads the whole pipeline: EmailRecipientSchema (z.string().email()) on both the internal jobs DTO and NotificationCommandDto; the jobs controller passes it into the broker publish, and the router sends to [recipient] alone instead of the channel's addresses.
  • Alert path unchanged: chain-event and deployment-alert messages carry no recipient, so they keep going to every address on the channel — with specs pinning both routing paths plus a 400 for a malformed recipient at the endpoint.
  • Contract artifacts hand-edited faithfully: I regenerated swagger.internal.json from the PR code — the recipient entry is byte-identical to generator output, so the next regen won't drift. Deploy order is safe in both directions: the old notifications service strips the unknown field (zod default), and a notifications-first deploy just leaves it unused.

ℹ️ The window-handler integration specs don't pin recipient on the wire

The two *.handler.integration.ts specs assert the exact body posted to /internal/v1/jobs/notification — precise unsubscribe links included — but not recipient, so a regression that drops the field between PromotionalNotificationService and the HTTP call (e.g. someone rebuilding the body object inside NotificationService.createNotification) would leave every spec green. That is the one seam the new unit and functional specs don't already pin.

Technical details
# Window-handler integration specs don't assert `recipient`

## Affected sites
- `apps/api/src/app/services/first-purchase-bonus-window-opened/first-purchase-bonus-window-opened.handler.integration.ts:56` — asserts `body: expect.objectContaining({ notificationId, payload, unsubscribe })`, no `recipient`
- `apps/api/src/app/services/first-purchase-bonus-window-reminder/first-purchase-bonus-window-reminder.handler.integration.ts:54` — same shape

## Required outcome
- Each spec's expected body also asserts `recipient` equals the seeded person's email, pinning the field's survival from `PromotionalNotificationService.send` through `NotificationService.createNotification` to the HTTP body.

## Suggested approach
- `person` comes from `seedUser({ email: faker.internet.email(), ... })`; add `recipient: person.email` next to the existing `unsubscribe` assertion in each `expect.objectContaining` block. The `SentNotification` body type in each spec can stay as-is since the assertion is structural.

Pullfrog: added recipient: person.email to the body assertions in both window-handler integration specs in b3fa3ce. Both specs fail if the service stops sending it.

✅ No new issues found.

Reviewed changes

Re-reviewed the delta since the prior pullfrog review — the new commit lands the one thing that review asked for: recipient pinned on the wire in both window-handler specs. Verified by running both integration specs (11 tests, all green on the hand-booted Postgres), and by the base-checkout pattern — reverting promotional-notification.service.ts to main while keeping the new assertions makes exactly the two updated tests fail on the missing recipient, so the assertions genuinely guard the seam rather than restating it. tsc --noEmit in apps/api stays clean.

  • Asserted recipient in both window-handler integration specs: the small_first_purchase tests in the opened and reminder specs now expect recipient: person.email in the exact body posted to POST /internal/v1/jobs/notification, pinning the field's survival from PromotionalNotificationService.send through NotificationService.createNotification to the HTTP call.
  • Extended each spec's local SentNotification body type with recipient?: string to match the asserted shape.
