Submit up to 1000 unbriefed documents to the provider Batch API in one
shot instead of individual synchronous LLM calls. Results are polled
every 30 minutes via a new Celery beat task and imported automatically.
- New worker: llm_batch_processor.py
- submit_llm_batch: guards against duplicate batches, builds JSONL
(OpenAI) or request list (Anthropic), stores state in AppSetting
- poll_llm_batch_results: checks batch status, imports completed
results with idempotency, emits notifications + triggers news fetch
- celery_app: register worker, route to llm queue, beat every 30 min
- admin API: POST /submit-llm-batch + GET /llm-batch-status endpoints
- Frontend: submitLlmBatch + getLlmBatchStatus in adminAPI; settings
page shows batch control row (openai/anthropic only) with live
progress line while batch is processing

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

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
