### Phase 18: Auto timezone detection and ability to change timezone
-**Goal:** [To be planned]
-**Requirements**: TBD
-**Depends on:** Phase 17
-**Plans:** 0 plans
+**Goal:** Make the household timezone an explicit, stored, user-changeable setting — auto-detected from the browser at first run, changeable from the role-gated /admin Settings — and route the server-side all-day "9 AM local" reminder computation through it (replacing the implicit `process.env.TZ` fallback), without touching the already-correct browser-local display/timed-write path.
+**Requirements**: TBD (decision contract D-01..D-07 from 18-CONTEXT.md)
+**Depends on:** Phase 10 (admin role + `/admin` Settings + `app_config`); Phase 11 (all-day reminder computation this rewires). Independent of Phase 17. Phase 12 (setup wizard) not required — seeding is self-contained.
+**Plans:** 4 plans (3 waves)
Plans:
+**Wave 1**
-- [ ] TBD (run /gsd-plan-phase 18 to break down)
+- [ ] 18-01-PLAN.md — TDD: getHouseholdTimezone(db) accessor + isValidIanaTimezone (D-05/D-06)
+
+**Wave 2** *(blocked on Wave 1 completion)*
+
+- [ ] 18-02-PLAN.md — TDD: admin GET/PUT/seed timezone endpoints on adminRouter, requireAdmin + IANA validation + no-overwrite seed (D-01/D-02/D-03/D-04)
+- [ ] 18-03-PLAN.md — TDD: route all-day reminder TZ at reminderScheduler:247 + outboxWorker:501,607 through the accessor (D-05/D-06/D-07)
+
+**Wave 3** *(blocked on Wave 2 completion)*
+

+
+
+Create the single shared accessor and IANA validator that every other Phase 18 task
+depends on. `getHouseholdTimezone(db)` reads the `household_timezone` key from `app_config`
+and applies the D-06 fallback chain; `isValidIanaTimezone(tz)` validates an IANA string via
+`Intl.DateTimeFormat` try/catch.
+
+Purpose: D-05 mandates ONE accessor so `reminderScheduler.ts` and `outboxWorker.ts` cannot
+drift; D-06 mandates the exact `process.env.TZ ?? Intl…` fallback so existing all-day tests
+stay green with no modification. This plan is the foundation both later waves consume.
+Output: `apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts` exporting `getHouseholdTimezone` + `isValidIanaTimezone`, fully unit-tested.

+
+ Task 1: RED — failing unit tests for getHouseholdTimezone fallback chain + isValidIanaTimezone
+ apps/api/tests/lib/householdTimezone.test.ts
+
+ - apps/api/tests/lib/requireAdmin.test.ts (vitest structure + how a mock Drizzle db is built for a lib helper)
+ - apps/api/tests/broker/reminderScheduler.test.ts (how existing tests pin process.env.TZ in beforeEach/afterEach — mirror the env save/restore)
+ - apps/api/src/db/schema.ts §282 (appConfig key/value/updatedAt shape — the row this accessor reads)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-RESEARCH.md (Pitfall 2 = why 'UTC' must pass; Validation Architecture → Test Map)
+
+
+ - getHouseholdTimezone: when the mocked db returns a row { value: 'America/Chicago' } for key 'household_timezone' → resolves to 'America/Chicago'.
+ - getHouseholdTimezone: when the mocked db returns no row (empty array) AND process.env.TZ='America/New_York' → resolves to 'America/New_York'.
+ - getHouseholdTimezone: when no row AND process.env.TZ is deleted → resolves to Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone (assert it equals that exact runtime value, not a hardcoded string).
+ - getHouseholdTimezone: when the row exists but value is null → falls through to the process.env.TZ branch (null is treated as unset).
+ - isValidIanaTimezone: returns true for 'UTC', 'Etc/UTC', 'America/Chicago', 'Europe/London'.
+ - isValidIanaTimezone: returns false for 'Not/AZone', '', 'Mars/Phobos'.
+
+
+ Create the test file mocking the Drizzle query chain the same way requireAdmin.test.ts mocks
+ `db` (select→from→where→limit returning a Promise of an array). Save and restore
+ `process.env.TZ` around each test (capture original in beforeEach, restore in afterEach) so the
+ fallback-branch tests do not leak env state. Import the not-yet-existing symbols
+ `getHouseholdTimezone` and `isValidIanaTimezone` from `../../src/lib/householdTimezone.js`.
+ Run the suite and confirm it FAILS because the module does not exist yet (import/resolution
+ error is the expected RED). Commit as `test(18-01): add failing tests for household timezone accessor + IANA validator`.
+
+
+ pnpm --filter @familysync/api exec vitest run tests/lib/householdTimezone.test.ts 2>&1 | grep -qi "fail\|error\|cannot find" && echo RED-OK
+
+
+ - File `apps/api/tests/lib/householdTimezone.test.ts` exists with the six behavior cases above.
+ - The test run fails (RED) prior to any implementation — failure is module-not-found / missing-export, not a syntax error in the test.
+ - A `test(18-01): ...` commit precedes the implementation commit.
+
+ RED gate met: failing test committed, fails for the right reason (no implementation).
+
+
+
+ Task 2: GREEN — implement getHouseholdTimezone + isValidIanaTimezone
+ apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts
+
+ - apps/api/src/lib/requireAdmin.ts (analog: single-purpose lib helper, drizzle select→from→where→limit(1), typed return — copy import + query style)
+ - apps/api/src/db/schema.ts §282 (appConfig — import { appConfig } from '../db/schema.js')
+ - apps/api/src/broker/reminderScheduler.ts §247 (the EXACT fallback expression `process.env.TZ ?? Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone` to reproduce verbatim per D-06)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-PATTERNS.md (householdTimezone.ts section — full target shape)
+
+
+ Create `apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts`. Export `async getHouseholdTimezone(db: MySql2Database): Promise` that selects `{ value: appConfig.value }` from `appConfig`
+ where `eq(appConfig.key, 'household_timezone')` `.limit(1)`, destructures `const [row]`, and returns
+ `row?.value ?? process.env.TZ ?? Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone` — the D-06 fallback
+ reproduced verbatim from the bare lookups. Use the literal key string `'household_timezone'` (D-01).
+ Export `isValidIanaTimezone(tz: string): boolean` that returns true if `Intl.DateTimeFormat(undefined, { timeZone: tz })` does not throw, false on catch — do NOT use `Intl.supportedValuesOf` (it omits 'UTC', RESEARCH Pitfall 2).
+ Import types via `import type { MySql2Database } from 'drizzle-orm/mysql2'` and `import type * as schema from '../db/schema.js'`.
+ Run the test; iterate until GREEN. Commit as `feat(18-01): implement household timezone accessor + IANA validator`.
+
+
+ pnpm --filter @familysync/api exec vitest run tests/lib/householdTimezone.test.ts
+
+
+ - `apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts` exports `getHouseholdTimezone` and `isValidIanaTimezone`.
+ - Source contains the literal key `'household_timezone'` and the verbatim fallback `process.env.TZ ?? Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone`.
+ - Source does NOT reference `Intl.supportedValuesOf` (assert: `grep -L "supportedValuesOf" apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts`).
+ - All six behavior cases pass (GREEN).
+ - `pnpm --filter @familysync/api exec tsc --noEmit` passes for the new file.
+ - A `feat(18-01): ...` commit follows the RED commit.
+
+ GREEN gate met: implementation passes all unit tests; typecheck clean.

+Extend the existing Phase 10 `adminRouter` with three timezone endpoints — GET (read current +
+isExplicitlySet), PUT (validate + upsert), and a seed endpoint (write only if unset) — all behind
+the established `requireAdmin` guard.
+
+Purpose: D-04 puts the timezone behind the role-gated admin surface; D-01 stores it as the single
+`household_timezone` app_config row; D-02/D-03 add a first-run seed path that never overwrites an
+already-set value (so Phase 18 is self-contained without Phase 12, and silent drift is impossible).
+Output: three new routes on `adminRouter` + integration tests proving the access-control and
+validation boundaries.

+
+ - apps/api/tests/routes/admin.test.ts (existing: how a non-admin 403 case is set up; how admin requests are authed; beforeEach/afterEach DB cleanup against familysync_test)
+ - apps/api/src/routes/admin.ts (existing GET /calendars + PUT /calendars/:id/shared handlers; requireAdmin at line 41; zValidator import at line 24)
+ - apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts (the validator + accessor this route consumes)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-RESEARCH.md (Pitfall 2 'UTC' must pass; Pitfall 3 requireAdmin coverage; Pitfall 6 seed no-overwrite; Security Domain → no noEchoHook needed)
+
+
+ - GET /api/admin/config/timezone as a non-admin authenticated user → 403.
+ - PUT /api/admin/config/timezone as a non-admin authenticated user → 403.
+ - GET as admin with no stored row → 200 with { isExplicitlySet: false } and a non-empty timezone string (the fallback).
+ - PUT as admin { timezone: 'America/Chicago' } → 200; subsequent GET → { timezone: 'America/Chicago', isExplicitlySet: true }.
+ - PUT as admin { timezone: 'UTC' } → 200 (UTC must be accepted — Pitfall 2).
+ - PUT as admin { timezone: 'Not/AZone' } → 400; app_config has no household_timezone change as a result.
+ - POST /api/admin/config/timezone/seed { timezone: 'Europe/London' } when unset → 200 and stored value becomes 'Europe/London'.
+ - POST seed { timezone: 'Asia/Tokyo' } when already set to 'America/Chicago' → 200 (or 409 if chosen) but stored value REMAINS 'America/Chicago' (no overwrite, D-03).
+
+
+ Append a `describe('admin timezone config', ...)` block to the existing integration test file,
+ reusing its established admin-auth and DB-cleanup helpers. For the no-overwrite seed test, first
+ PUT (or directly insert) 'America/Chicago', then POST seed 'Asia/Tokyo', then GET and assert the
+ value is still 'America/Chicago'. Ensure each test cleans the household_timezone row in

+
+ Task 2: GREEN — implement GET/PUT/seed timezone endpoints on adminRouter

+ - apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts (import isValidIanaTimezone + getHouseholdTimezone)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-PATTERNS.md (admin.ts section: exact schema placement, import additions, upsert pattern)
+ - apps/api/src/db/schema.ts §282 (appConfig — add to the schema import on line 28)
+
+
+ Extend `apps/api/src/routes/admin.ts`. Add `appConfig` to the `'../db/schema.js'` import and

+ Define `timezoneSchema = z.object({ timezone: z.string().min(1).max(64).refine(isValidIanaTimezone, { message: 'Invalid IANA timezone identifier' }) })`
+ in the Zod schema block (NO noEchoHook — timezone is non-sensitive, RESEARCH Security Domain).
+ Append three routes AFTER the existing ones (so the line-41 `requireAdmin` covers them):
+ • `adminRouter.get('/config/timezone', ...)` → select value where key='household_timezone' limit 1; return `c.json({ timezone: row?.value ?? process.env.TZ ?? Intl…, isExplicitlySet: row?.value != null })`. (Reuse the exact fallback; you may call getHouseholdTimezone(db) for the value and compute isExplicitlySet from a separate row read or a single read.)
+ • `adminRouter.put('/config/timezone', zValidator('json', timezoneSchema), ...)` → upsert via `db.insert(appConfig).values({ key: 'household_timezone', value: timezone }).onDuplicateKeyUpdate({ set: { value: timezone } })`; return `c.json({ ok: true }, 200)`.
+ • `adminRouter.post('/config/timezone/seed', zValidator('json', timezoneSchema), ...)` → SELECT existing; if `row?.value` is null/undefined, insert the value; else no-op. Always return `c.json({ ok: true, seeded: }, 200)` (D-03 no-overwrite). Do NOT use a bare onDuplicateKeyUpdate that would overwrite.
+ Run the integration tests; iterate to GREEN. Commit as `feat(18-02): admin timezone GET/PUT/seed endpoints`.
+
+
+ pnpm --filter @familysync/api exec vitest run tests/routes/admin.test.ts
+
+
+ - admin.ts registers `/config/timezone` (GET, PUT) and `/config/timezone/seed` (POST) AFTER line 41 so requireAdmin covers them (both 403 tests pass).
+ - PUT body validated by `timezoneSchema` using `isValidIanaTimezone`; 'UTC' → 200, 'Not/AZone' → 400.
+ - Upsert uses `onDuplicateKeyUpdate` on key `'household_timezone'`; seed path conditionally writes only when unset (no-overwrite test passes).
+ - admin.ts does NOT add a noEchoHook to the timezone routes (timezone is non-sensitive).
+ - All eight RED cases now pass (GREEN); `tsc --noEmit` clean.

+
+Rewire the three all-day "9 AM local" timezone lookups — one in `reminderScheduler.ts` (line ~247)
+and two in `outboxWorker.ts` (lines ~501 and ~607) — to read the stored timezone through the
+single `getHouseholdTimezone(db)` accessor, replacing the bare
+`process.env.TZ ?? Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone` reads.
+
+Purpose: D-05 makes the stored `household_timezone` the source of truth for the all-day reminder
+computation, and mandates ONE shared accessor at both sites (no duplicated read/fallback). D-06
+keeps the exact `process.env.TZ ?? Intl` behavior when nothing is stored, so the existing all-day
+tests pass unmodified. D-07 is the hard boundary: this plan must NOT touch display/timed-write paths.
+Output: three rewired call sites + new stored-TZ tests; existing all-day tests green unchanged.

+ Task 1: RED — failing stored-TZ all-day tests for scheduler + outbox
+ apps/api/tests/broker/reminderScheduler.test.ts, apps/api/tests/broker/outboxWorker.test.ts
+
+ - apps/api/tests/broker/reminderScheduler.test.ts (lines ~656–729: existing all-day tests that pin process.env.TZ='America/New_York' — DO NOT modify them; they must keep passing via D-06 fallback)
+ - apps/api/tests/broker/outboxWorker.test.ts (how its mock db chain is built for the all-day branches)
+ - apps/api/src/broker/vevent.ts §240 (computeAlertInstantUtc(eventDateStr, leadDays, tz): Date — contract unchanged; assert the 9 AM-local instant for the stored zone)
+ - apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts (the accessor whose stored-value path you are now exercising)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-RESEARCH.md (Pitfall 5: why existing tests stay green; new tests mock db to return the app_config row)
+
+
+ - reminderScheduler all-day: when the mock db ALSO returns { key: 'household_timezone', value: 'America/Chicago' }, the computed alert instant equals 9 AM America/Chicago for the event date (a different UTC instant than 9 AM America/New_York would give).
+ - outboxWorker all-day (create branch): with stored 'America/Chicago', the create-branch alert instant is 9 AM Chicago for the event date.
+ - outboxWorker all-day (update branch): with stored 'America/Chicago', the update-branch alert instant is 9 AM Chicago for the event date.
+ - Backward-compat (assert, do not modify): the pre-existing all-day tests that pin process.env.TZ and return NO app_config row still pass (fallback fires).
+
+
+ Add new stored-TZ test cases alongside the existing all-day tests. Where the existing tests mock
+ the Drizzle query for events, extend the mock so the household_timezone SELECT resolves to a row
+ with value 'America/Chicago' (match the accessor's query shape so getHouseholdTimezone returns it).
+ Assert the resulting UTC instant equals 9 AM Chicago for the event date (compute the expected UTC
+ via a fixed reference, e.g. using computeAlertInstantUtc with 'America/Chicago' directly, or an
+ explicit ISO instant). Do NOT alter the existing process.env.TZ-pinned cases. Run the two suites;
+ confirm the NEW cases FAIL (code still reads process.env.TZ, so stored 'America/Chicago' has no
+ effect). Commit as `test(18-03): add failing stored-TZ all-day tests for scheduler + outbox`.
+
+
+ pnpm --filter @familysync/api exec vitest run tests/broker/reminderScheduler.test.ts tests/broker/outboxWorker.test.ts 2>&1 | grep -qi "fail" && echo RED-OK
+
+
+ - New stored-TZ cases exist in both test files and FAIL before the rewire (code still reads process.env.TZ).
+ - The existing process.env.TZ-pinned all-day cases are unchanged (no edits to those test bodies).
+ - `test(18-03): ...` commit precedes the rewire commit.
+
+ RED gate met: stored-TZ tests fail because the call sites are not yet rewired.
+
+
+
+ Task 2: GREEN — rewire all three all-day TZ call sites through getHouseholdTimezone(db)
+ apps/api/src/broker/reminderScheduler.ts, apps/api/src/broker/outboxWorker.ts
+
+ - apps/api/src/broker/reminderScheduler.ts (line ~247 serverTz lookup; line ~256 computeAlertInstantUtc call; db already imported line 46)
+ - apps/api/src/broker/outboxWorker.ts (lines ~501 + ~607 tz lookups; runOutboxDrain line ~710; db already imported line 31)
+ - apps/api/src/lib/householdTimezone.ts (import getHouseholdTimezone)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-PATTERNS.md (reminderScheduler + outboxWorker sections: exact replacement lines)
+
+
+ In `reminderScheduler.ts`: add `import { getHouseholdTimezone } from '../lib/householdTimezone.js'`
+ and replace the line-247 `const serverTz = process.env.TZ ?? Intl…` with
+ `const serverTz = await getHouseholdTimezone(db);` (the enclosing function is already async / awaits
+ DB queries; `db` is the module import on line 46). Leave the line-256 computeAlertInstantUtc call
+ unchanged — serverTz is still a string.
+ In `outboxWorker.ts`: add the same import. Replace BOTH bare `const tz = process.env.TZ ?? Intl…`
+ lookups (~501 and ~607) with `const tz = await getHouseholdTimezone(db);`. `db` is the module import
+ on line 31; `runOutboxDrain` is async. (If both branches are reachable in one pass and lint allows,
+ you may hoist a single `const tz = await getHouseholdTimezone(db)` to the top of the all-day block
+ and reuse it — but do NOT duplicate the read/fallback inline; route through the accessor only.)
+ HARD BOUNDARY (D-07): do not open, import from, or modify `apps/pwa/src/lib/eventDateTime.ts` or
+ `apps/pwa/src/lib/hydrateEvents.ts`, and do not change any timed-event serialization or display path.
+ Run both suites; iterate to GREEN. Confirm the existing process.env.TZ-pinned tests still pass.
+ Commit as `feat(18-03): route all-day reminder TZ through stored household_timezone`.
+
+
+ pnpm --filter @familysync/api exec vitest run tests/broker/reminderScheduler.test.ts tests/broker/outboxWorker.test.ts
+
+
+ - `grep -c "getHouseholdTimezone(db)" apps/api/src/broker/reminderScheduler.ts` ≥ 1 and same for outboxWorker.ts ≥ 1.
+ - No bare `process.env.TZ ?? Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone` remains at the rewired all-day sites (assert: `grep -v '^\s*\*' apps/api/src/broker/reminderScheduler.ts | grep -c "process.env.TZ ?? Intl"` → 0; same for outboxWorker.ts). The fallback now lives only inside getHouseholdTimezone.
+ - D-07 boundary: `git diff --name-only` for this plan does NOT include `apps/pwa/src/lib/eventDateTime.ts` or `apps/pwa/src/lib/hydrateEvents.ts` (assert they are absent from the changed-files list).
+ - New stored-TZ tests GREEN; existing process.env.TZ all-day tests still GREEN (unmodified).
+ - `pnpm --filter @familysync/api test -- --run` fully green; `tsc --noEmit` clean.
+ - `feat(18-03): ...` commit follows the RED commit.
+
+ GREEN gate met: stored TZ drives all three all-day sites; D-06 fallback + D-07 boundary intact.

Blast radius confined to the all-day branches. |
+| T-18-10 | Denial of Service | extra DB read per tick at 3 call sites | accept | PK lookups on a 60s interval; negligible (RESEARCH A1). Read-per-run keeps changes propagating within one tick without a worker restart. |

+
+
+Add the admin-facing Timezone UI: a searchable IANA picker in the existing `/admin` Settings page,
+backed by two new client functions that call the Plan 02 endpoints. The picker pre-offers the
+browser-detected zone so an admin (or the Phase 12 wizard, later) can seed the household timezone in
+one tap.
+
+Purpose: D-04 surfaces the change-timezone control in the role-gated admin Settings; D-02 wires the
+browser detection (`Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone`) as the suggested value. This
+is UI + glue against the contract Plan 02 already established and tested.
+Output: `fetchAdminTimezone`/`setAdminTimezone` in client.ts + a Timezone section in AdminPage.tsx,
+verified end-to-end with playwright-cli.

+
+
+
+
+
+ Task 1: Add fetchAdminTimezone + setAdminTimezone to the PWA API client
+ apps/pwa/src/api/client.ts
+
+ - apps/pwa/src/api/client.ts (lines ~413–469: fetchAdminMembers / saveCredential / fetchAdminCalendars / setSharedCalendar — exact GET + PUT-with-body patterns; handleAuthResponse at lines ~51–58; the `// ── /api/admin/* ──` section header at line 355)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-PATTERNS.md (client.ts section: AdminTimezoneResponse interface + both function bodies)
+
+
+ In the `// ── /api/admin/* ──` section of client.ts, export `interface AdminTimezoneResponse { timezone: string; isExplicitlySet: boolean }`.
+ Add `fetchAdminTimezone()` — GET `/api/admin/config/timezone` with `credentials: 'include', redirect: 'manual'`,
+ call `handleAuthResponse(res, 'GET /api/admin/config/timezone')`, return `res.json()` as `AdminTimezoneResponse`.
+ Add `setAdminTimezone(timezone: string)` — PUT `/api/admin/config/timezone` with `Content-Type: application/json`,
+ `credentials: 'include', redirect: 'manual'`, body `JSON.stringify({ timezone })`, then
+ `handleAuthResponse(res, 'PUT /api/admin/config/timezone')`. Match the existing wrappers' style exactly.
+
+
+ pnpm --filter @familysync/pwa exec tsc --noEmit && grep -q "fetchAdminTimezone" apps/pwa/src/api/client.ts && grep -q "PUT" apps/pwa/src/api/client.ts
+
+
+ - client.ts exports `fetchAdminTimezone`, `setAdminTimezone`, and `AdminTimezoneResponse`.
+ - Both wrappers call `handleAuthResponse` and use `credentials: 'include', redirect: 'manual'` (same auth handling as sibling admin calls).
+ - `pnpm --filter @familysync/pwa exec tsc --noEmit` passes.
+
+ Client functions compile and mirror the established admin fetch wrappers.
+
+
+
+ Task 2: Add the Timezone section (searchable IANA picker + save) to AdminPage
+ apps/pwa/src/routes/AdminPage.tsx
+
+ - apps/pwa/src/routes/AdminPage.tsx (Shared Calendar section lines ~183–288: section structure, sectionLabelStyle at ~40, calendarsQuery at ~72, sharedCalMutation at ~86, save-button style ~244–285)
+ - apps/pwa/src/api/client.ts (the fetchAdminTimezone / setAdminTimezone / AdminTimezoneResponse added in Task 1)
+ - .planning/phases/18-auto-timezone-detection-and-ability-to-change-timezone/18-PATTERNS.md (AdminPage.tsx section: query/mutation/section template, datalist picker UX, import additions)
+ - CLAUDE.md (Browser-based verification convention — use playwright-cli, NOT @playwright/test, for the manual check)
+
+
+ Import `fetchAdminTimezone, setAdminTimezone, type AdminTimezoneResponse` from `../api/client.js`.
+ Add `timezoneQuery = useQuery({ queryKey: ['admin','timezone'], queryFn: fetchAdminTimezone, retry: false, staleTime: 60*1000 })`
+ and `timezoneMutation = useMutation({ mutationFn: (tz: string) => setAdminTimezone(tz), onSuccess: () => void queryClient.invalidateQueries({ queryKey: ['admin','timezone'] }) })`.
+ Add a `
+
+ pnpm --filter @familysync/pwa exec tsc --noEmit && pnpm --filter @familysync/pwa test -- --run && grep -q 'aria-label="Timezone"' apps/pwa/src/routes/AdminPage.tsx
+
+
+ - AdminPage renders a `` with the stored value pre-filled and a datalist-backed searchable input.
+ - A "Use detected: " affordance sets the input to `Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone` (D-02).
+ - Save calls setAdminTimezone and invalidates the ['admin','timezone'] query on success; the section shows the "system default" note when isExplicitlySet is false.
+ - `pnpm --filter @familysync/pwa exec tsc --noEmit` and `pnpm --filter @familysync/pwa test -- --run` pass.
+ - No change to eventDateTime.ts / hydrateEvents.ts / any other AdminPage section (D-07).
+
+ Timezone section renders, saves, persists, and offers the detected zone.
+
+
+
+ Task 3: playwright-cli round-trip of the admin timezone picker
+ apps/pwa/src/routes/AdminPage.tsx
+ A Timezone section in /admin Settings: searchable IANA picker, "use detected zone" affordance, save + persist via the Plan 02 endpoints.
+
+ Drive the verification with the global `playwright-cli` binary (NOT @playwright/test) against the
+ host-side dev stack with DEV_AUTH_BYPASS (the dev-bypass user must be admin — see the MEMORY
+ dev-bypass note; unlock admin if the section is not visible). This is an automation-first check the
+ executor runs, then presents the result to the operator for sign-off.
+
+
+ 1. Open the PWA, navigate to /admin Settings.
+ 2. Confirm a "Timezone" section shows the current household timezone (or "system default").
+ 3. Type a city (e.g. "Chicago"), pick "America/Chicago" from the datalist, click Save.
+ 4. Reload /admin and confirm the section now shows "America/Chicago" with no "system default" note.
+ 5. Confirm the "Use detected: " affordance fills the input with the browser zone.
+ Expected: the value persists across reload; no console errors; the save button disables while pending.
+
+
+ playwright-cli round-trip confirms the timezone saves and persists across reload, and the detected-zone affordance works.
+
+ Type "approved" or describe what rendered/persisted incorrectly.
+ Operator confirms the admin timezone picker saves, persists across reload, and offers the detected zone.

+|-----------|----------|-----------|-------------|-----------------|
+| T-18-11 | Elevation of Privilege | client renders admin UI based on isAdmin flag | accept | Client `isAdmin` is UX-only (Phase 10 D-03); a non-admin who forges the request still hits server-side requireAdmin → 403 (Plan 02 T-18-03). The UI gate is not a security control and is not relied upon as one. |
+| T-18-12 | Tampering | user types a non-IANA string into the free-text input | mitigate | The datalist offers only valid zones; a manually-typed invalid string is rejected by the server's Zod `isValidIanaTimezone` refine (Plan 02) → 400 surfaced to the user. Client may additionally pre-check before enabling Save, but the server is authoritative. |
+| T-18-13 | Information Disclosure | XSS via rendered timezone value | mitigate | The value is rendered as plain-text JSX children (no dangerouslySetInnerHTML), consistent with the existing AdminPage convention. IANA strings are constrained anyway. |
+| T-18-SC | Tampering | npm/pip/cargo installs | mitigate | No new packages this plan (RESEARCH Package Legitimacy Audit: zero installs; picker uses built-in Intl). |

+
+## Wave Structure
+
+| Wave | Plans | Autonomous | Files (disjoint per wave) |
+|------|-------|------------|----------------------------|
+| 1 | 18-01 (accessor + IANA validator, TDD) | yes | `lib/householdTimezone.ts` (+test) |
+| 2 | 18-02 (admin endpoints, TDD), 18-03 (broker wiring, TDD) | yes, yes | 02: `routes/admin.ts` (+test); 03: `broker/reminderScheduler.ts` + `broker/outboxWorker.ts` (+tests) — no overlap with 02 |
+| 3 | 18-04 (PWA picker UI) | no (human-verify checkpoint) | `pwa/api/client.ts`, `pwa/routes/AdminPage.tsx` |
+
+Dependency rationale: 02 and 03 both depend only on the Wave-1 accessor and touch disjoint files →
+parallel in Wave 2. 04 depends on the 02 endpoint contract → Wave 3.

+
+## Multi-Source Coverage Audit
+
+### GOAL (ROADMAP Phase 18 goal)
+"Auto-detect the household timezone and allow changing it" → COVERED: detection seed (D-02, Plans 02 seed
+endpoint + 04 detected-zone affordance); change (D-04, Plans 02 PUT + 04 picker); behavioral wiring
+(D-05, Plan 03).
+
+### REQ (phase_req_ids from REQUIREMENTS.md)
+No REQ-IDs are mapped to Phase 18 in ROADMAP.md (confirmed: "Requirements: TBD"). Per the planning
+context, the D-01..D-07 decision set is the coverage contract — see CONTEXT below. Not a gap.
+
+### RESEARCH (18-RESEARCH.md features/constraints)
+- Single accessor `getHouseholdTimezone` + IANA validator → Plan 01.
+- GET/PUT endpoints on adminRouter, no new router → Plan 02.
+- Seed endpoint, additive/non-blocking (Phase 12 not yet executed) → Plan 02.
+- Rewire reminderScheduler:247 + outboxWorker:501,607 → Plan 03.
+- PWA picker, no new package, Intl-based → Plan 04.
+- No new npm installs (Package Legitimacy Audit: zero) → honored across all plans; T-18-SC = no-op.
+
+### CONTEXT (D-01..D-07 — the trackable decision contract)
+
+| Decision | Covered by | Where |
+|----------|-----------|-------|
+| D-01 single household app_config key `household_timezone` | Plan 01 (key literal), Plan 02 (upsert) | accessor + endpoints |
+| D-02 browser-detect + seed at first run | Plan 02 (seed endpoint), Plan 04 (detected-zone affordance) | endpoints + UI |
+| D-03 no auto-overwrite after seed | Plan 02 (seed writes only if unset) | seed endpoint |
+| D-04 change via role-gated /admin Settings | Plan 02 (requireAdmin endpoints), Plan 04 (Timezone section) | endpoints + UI |
+| D-05 stored TZ = source of truth, single accessor at both scheduler sites | Plan 01 (accessor), Plan 03 (both sites route through it) | accessor + broker |
+| D-06 fallback chain when unset | Plan 01 (verbatim fallback), Plan 03 (existing tests stay green) | accessor + broker |
+| D-07 do not touch display/timed-write path | Plan 03 + Plan 04 (boundary as acceptance criterion) | broker + UI |
+
+**No unplanned items.** Deferred Ideas (per-member timezones; driving display/timed off stored TZ) are
+correctly absent from all plans.
