Show seeded daily tasks in Operations Home today queue

Status: in progress
Tags: bug, portal, frontend, work-engine, P0
Depends on: #70, #72
Blocks: #71 final V1 cutover acceptance

Scope

Fix the deployed Operations Home so production-safe seeded daily tasks appear in the operator's Today queue under portal auth.

Current production state after deploy run 28331121553:

• /work/api/tasks?status=todo returns two tasks dated 2026-06-28 assigned to the seeded operator user Grace.
• /work/api/notifications returns two recurring-due notifications for those tasks.
• The browser-rendered /work page after portal login shows 0 today and No live tasks assigned to you or unassigned due today.
• The same tasks appear only as Process Quality blockers because they lack process instructions.

The V1 Operations Home must help the operations manager see what needs action today. A task may also have a process-quality warning, but that warning must not hide the task from daily work surfaces.

Acceptance Criteria

• After portal login, /work shows seeded due todo tasks in the Today section even when the browser actor is the synthetic portal-admin and the tasks are assigned to a real seeded operator user.
• The Operations Home summary count includes those tasks as today work.
• Tasks with missing process instructions can still be listed as process-quality blockers, but they remain visible and actionable in the Today queue.
• The fix preserves real-user filtering when a real operator user is selected or available; it must not broadly hide assigned work in portal mode.
• Production smoke after deploy records /work/api/tasks?status=todo count, /work/api/notifications count, and browser evidence that the two seeded daily tasks are visible in Operations Home.

Test Scenarios

Scenario: Synthetic portal actor opens daily work

Given: /work/api/me returns portal-admin, /work/api/users returns seeded real operators, and /work/api/tasks?status=todo returns tasks assigned to Grace due today.
When: the operator opens /work after portal login.
Then: the Today section and summary count include those tasks instead of showing 0 today.

Scenario: Missing process instructions do not hide work

Given: a due todo task has no instructionDocId and no instructionsUrl.
When: Operations Home renders.
Then: the task appears in Today and may also appear under Process Quality as a blocker.

Scenario: Real user scoping remains valid

Given: the UI has a real selected operator user.
When: Operations Home filters assigned work.
Then: it still includes tasks assigned to that operator and unassigned shared work, and does not show unrelated real-user work as assigned-to-me work.

Required Verification

• Focused unit/static tests for the affected frontend/work-engine surface.
• npm --prefix work-engine run typecheck if work-engine TypeScript is touched.
• Relevant frontend/docs tests if frontend/ or Python portal behavior is touched.
• Browser evidence for /work showing the seeded daily tasks after portal login.
• After push, On-Call verifies Deploy DataOps V1 Lambda is green and production browser/API smoke passes.

Out of Scope

• Changing the recurring seed task definitions unless needed for today visibility.
• Removing process-quality blockers.
• Running real Trello import, Telegram assistant smoke, or other Coordinate V1 production cutover and human-gate closeout #71 human gates.
• Treating portal-admin as a permanent real operator identity.

CI/CD after push:

• Validate Planning Docs run 28331754213: success
• Validate DataOps Content run 28331754227: success
• Deploy DataOps V1 Lambda run 28331754253: success
• Deploy workflow: https://github.com/DataTalksClub/dataops/actions/runs/28331754253

Production smoke through portal login at https://ops.dtcdev.click:

• /work/api/tasks?status=todo: HTTP 200, 2 tasks
• /work/api/notifications: HTTP 200, 2 notifications
• Operations Home Today count: 2
• Visible seeded Today tasks:
  • Create new Trello cards and review existing ones
  • Invite people to Slack from Airtable

Screenshot evidence:

• .tmp/screenshots/issue-73-production-operations-home.png

Residual note: production still shows 2 Process blockers for the seeded tasks because they do not yet have process instruction links. This is visible as process-quality risk, but the tasks now remain visible and actionable in Today.
