# Phase 20 Plan 01: Member-profile update route + isAdmin read Summary

PATCH /api/admin/members/:id with displayName/isAdmin partial update, D-03 last-admin guard (409), and isAdmin added to GET /members — implemented test-first.

## Tasks Completed

| Task | Name | Commit | Files |
|------|------|--------|-------|
| 1 | RED — failing tests for member-profile route + isAdmin read | a0a82ac | apps/api/tests/routes/admin.test.ts |
| 2 | GREEN — implement PATCH /members/:id + isAdmin in GET /members | bc48632 | apps/api/src/routes/admin.ts, apps/api/tests/routes/admin.test.ts |
| 3 | REFACTOR — tidy + pass CI gates | (no changes needed) | — |

## What Was Built

- **`PATCH /api/admin/members/:id`** route in `apps/api/src/routes/admin.ts`:
  - Accepts `{ displayName?: string; isAdmin?: boolean }` via `updateMemberSchema`
  - Protected by router-wide `requireAdmin` (no second guard — D-02)
  - `parsePositiveIntParam` rejects malformed ids → 400
  - Existence check → 404 for unknown member ids
  - D-03 last-admin guard: when demoting the only admin → 409 `{ error: 'Cannot remove the last admin' }`
  - Self-demotion with a second admin present → 200
  - Partial `set()` from whichever fields are present; try/catch 503 fallback
  - `noEchoHook` applied per T-20-04 consistency posture
- **`isAdmin` field** added to `GET /api/admin/members` select and mapped response object

## Test Coverage (8 scenarios, all passing)

| Test | Scenario | Status |
|------|----------|--------|
| A | displayName update → 200; GET reflects change | GREEN |
| B | isAdmin promote → 200; GET shows isAdmin true | GREEN |
| C | Last-admin demotion → 409; member stays admin | GREEN |
| D | Self-demotion with second admin → 200; one admin remains | GREEN |
| E | Non-admin PATCH → 403 (requireAdmin boundary) | GREEN |
| F | Wrong-type body → 400 Invalid request; malformed :id → 400 | GREEN |
| G | Non-existent member id → 404 | GREEN |
| H | GET /members includes boolean isAdmin per member | GREEN |

Full suite: **44 tests passed, 0 failed**.

## Deviations from Plan

### Auto-fixed Issues

**1. [Rule 1 - Bug] Test D GET called with demoted user**
- **Found during:** Task 2 (GREEN run)
- **Issue:** Test D called `GET /members` while `currentDevUserId` was still `adminId1`, who had just been demoted — resulting in 403 instead of 200 for the verification GET
- **Fix:** Switched `currentDevUserId = adminId2` before the GET call so the verification uses the remaining admin's session
- **Files modified:** apps/api/tests/routes/admin.test.ts
- **Commit:** bc48632

## CI Gates

All gates pass for modified files:
- `tsc --noEmit`: pass
- `eslint src/routes/admin.ts`: pass
- `prettier --check`: pass (both files)

## TDD Gate Compliance

- RED gate commit: `a0a82ac` (`test(20-01): ...`) — 7 tests failing for right reasons
- GREEN gate commit: `bc48632` (`feat(20-01): ...`) — all 44 tests passing
- REFACTOR: no code changes needed — code was already clean from GREEN

## Known Stubs

None.

## Threat Flags

None — no new network surfaces beyond the planned PATCH route. All T-20-xx mitigations applied as specified.
