ZIP lookup (GET /api/members/by-zip/{zip}):
- Two-step geocoding: Nominatim (ZIP → lat/lng) then Census TIGERweb
Legislative identify (lat/lng → congressional district via GEOID)
- Handles at-large states (AK, DE, MT, ND, SD, VT, WY)
- Added rep_lookup health check to admin External API Health panel
congress_api.py fixes:
- parse_member_from_api: normalize state full name → 2-letter code
(Congress.gov returns "Florida", DB expects "FL")
- parse_member_from_api: read district from top-level data field,
not current_term (district is not inside the term object)
Celery beat: schedule sync_members daily at 1 AM UTC so chamber,
district, and contact info stay current without manual triggering
Members page redesign: photo avatars, party/state/chamber chips,
phone + website links, ZIP lookup form to find your reps
Draft letter improvements: pass rep_name from ZIP lookup so letter
opens with "Dear Representative Franklin," instead of generic salutation;
add has_document filter to bills list endpoint
UX additions: HelpTip component, How It Works page, "How it works"
sidebar nav link, collections page description copy

- get_llm_provider() now accepts provider + model args so DB overrides
propagate through to all provider constructors (was always reading
env vars, ignoring the admin UI selection)
- /test-llm replaced with lightweight ping (max_tokens=20) instead of
running a full bill analysis; shows model name + reply, no truncation
- /api/settings/llm-models endpoint fetches available models live from
each provider's API (OpenAI, Anthropic REST, Gemini, Ollama)
- Admin UI model picker dynamically populated from provider API;
falls back to manual text input on error; Custom model name option kept
- Default Gemini model updated: gemini-1.5-pro → gemini-2.0-flash

- Admin endpoints (settings writes, celery triggers) require is_admin
- Frontend: login/register pages, Zustand auth store (localStorage persist)
- AuthGuard component gates all app routes, shows app shell only when authed
- Sidebar shows user email + logout; Admin nav link visible to admins only
- Admin panel (/settings): user list with delete + promote/demote, LLM config,
