Weekly Digest (send_weekly_digest Celery task):
- Runs every Monday 8:30 AM UTC via beat schedule
- Queries all followed bills updated in the past 7 days per user
- Sends low-priority ntfy push (Priority: low, Tags: newspaper,calendar)
- Creates a NotificationEvent (weekly_digest type) for RSS feed visibility
- Admin can trigger immediately via POST /api/admin/trigger-weekly-digest
- Manual Controls panel now includes "Send Weekly Digest" button
Local-time quiet hours:
- Browser auto-detects IANA timezone via Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone
- Timezone saved to notification_prefs alongside quiet_hours_start/end on Save
- Dispatcher converts UTC → user's local time (zoneinfo stdlib) before hour comparison
- Falls back to UTC if timezone absent or unrecognised
- Quiet hours UI: 12-hour AM/PM selectors, shows detected timezone as hint
- Clearing quiet hours also clears stored timezone

- Add DraftLetterPanel: collapsible UI below BriefPanel for bills with a
brief; lets users select up to 3 cited points, pick stance/tone, and
generate a plain-text letter via the configured LLM provider
- Stance pre-fills from follow mode (pocket_boost → YES, pocket_veto → NO)
and clears when the user unfollows; recipient derived from bill chamber
- Add POST /api/bills/{bill_id}/draft-letter endpoint with proper LLM
provider/model resolution from AppSetting (respects Settings page choice)
- Add generate_text() to LLMProvider ABC and all four providers
- Expose has_document on BillSchema (list endpoint) via a single batch
query; BillCard shows Brief / Pending / No text indicator per bill

- Notification settings removed from admin-only Settings page; replaced with link card
- Sidebar adds Notifications nav link for all users
- notification_dispatcher.py: fan-out now marks RSS events dispatched independently
Action history:
- Migration 0012: deduplicates existing bill_actions rows and adds UNIQUE(bill_id, action_date, action_text)
- congress_poller.py: replaces existence-check inserts with ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING (race-condition safe)
- Added backfill_all_bill_actions task (no date filter) + admin endpoint POST /backfill-all-actions

LLM prompts updated to output {text, citation, quote} objects for every
key_point and risk. govinfo_url stored on BillBrief (migration 0006) so
the frontend can link directly to the source document without an extra
query. AIBriefCard renders § citation chips that expand inline to show
the verbatim quote and a View source → GovInfo link. Old plain-string
briefs continue to render unchanged.
