+# Phase 0: Environment Assessment + Test Baseline
+
+**Date:** 2026-02-20
+**Agent:** Clotho (darbs-claude)
+**Issue:** #1 - Phase 0: environment assessment + test baseline
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This is a mature, well-architected Laravel commerce package (`host-uk/core-commerce`) providing comprehensive billing, subscriptions, and payment processing capabilities. The codebase demonstrates strong engineering practices with event-driven architecture, comprehensive domain coverage, and UK English conventions.
+
+**Status:** ⚠️ Cannot execute tests due to private dependency (`host-uk/core`)
+**Recommendation:** Proceed with code review and architectural analysis only
+
+---
+
+## 1. Environment Assessment
+
+### 1.1 Dependency Analysis
+
+**Issue:** The package depends on `host-uk/core` which is not publicly available:
+
+```json
+"require": {
+    "php": "^8.2",
+    "host-uk/core": "dev-main"
+}
+```
+
+**Impact:**
+- ❌ Cannot run `composer install`
+- ❌ Cannot execute tests (`vendor/bin/pest`)
+- ❌ Cannot run linter (`vendor/bin/pint`)
+- ❌ Cannot run static analysis (`vendor/bin/phpstan`)
+
+**Mitigation:** This is expected for a private package. Testing would require:
+1. Access to private Composer repository hosting `host-uk/core`
+2. Authentication credentials configured
+3. Full Laravel application context
+
+### 1.2 Technology Stack
+
+| Component | Technology | Version |
+|-----------|-----------|---------|
+| PHP | Required | ^8.2 |
+| Framework | Laravel | 12.x (via orchestra/testbench ^9.0\|^10.0) |
+| Testing | Pest | ^3.0 |
+| Code Style | Laravel Pint | ^1.18 |
+| Package Type | Laravel Package | Service Provider based |

+
+## 2. Architecture Review
+
+### 2.1 Design Patterns
+
+**✅ Event-Driven Lazy Loading:**
+
+The package uses Core Framework's event system for lazy module loading:
+
+```php
+public static array $listens = [
+    AdminPanelBooting::class => 'onAdminPanel',
+    ApiRoutesRegistering::class => 'onApiRoutes',
+    WebRoutesRegistering::class => 'onWebRoutes',
+    ConsoleBooting::class => 'onConsole',
+];
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Modules only load when needed
+- No performance penalty if admin panel not accessed
+- Clean separation of concerns
+
+**✅ Service Layer Pattern:**
+
+All business logic isolated in singleton services registered in `Boot::register()`:
+
+```php
+$this->app->singleton(\Core\Mod\Commerce\Services\CommerceService::class);
+$this->app->singleton(\Core\Mod\Commerce\Services\SubscriptionService::class);
+// ... 16 more services
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Testable (constructor injection)
+- Single Responsibility Principle
+- Clear dependencies
+
+**✅ Strategy Pattern (Payment Gateways):**
+
+Pluggable payment gateway implementations via `PaymentGatewayContract`:
+
+```php
+$this->app->bind(PaymentGatewayContract::class, function ($app) {
+    $defaultGateway = config('commerce.gateways.btcpay.enabled')
+        ? 'btcpay'
+        : 'stripe';
+    return $app->make("commerce.gateway.{$defaultGateway}");
+});
+```
+
+**✅ Domain Events for Decoupling:**
+
+Events trigger listeners without tight coupling:
+
+```php
+Event::listen(\Core\Mod\Commerce\Events\OrderPaid::class,
+    Listeners\CreateReferralCommission::class);
+Event::listen(\Core\Mod\Commerce\Events\SubscriptionRenewed::class,
+    Listeners\ResetUsageOnRenewal::class);
+```
+
+### 2.2 Key Architectural Strengths
+
+1. **Strict Typing:** All files use `declare(strict_types=1);`
+2. **UK English Conventions:** Consistent use of "colour", "organisation", etc.
+3. **PSR-12 Compliance:** Configured via Laravel Pint
+4. **Data Transfer Objects:** DTOs in `Data/` directory (SkuOption, FraudAssessment, etc.)
+5. **Comprehensive Logging:** Webhook handlers include detailed logging
+6. **Database Transactions:** Critical operations wrapped in DB transactions
+7. **Idempotency:** Order creation supports idempotency keys
+8. **Multi-Currency:** Full support with exchange rate providers (ECB, Stripe, Fixed)
+
+### 2.3 Security Features (Recently Added)
+
+**Recent Security Enhancements (Jan 2026):**
+
+1. **Webhook Idempotency** ✅ (P1)
+   - Duplicate webhook detection via `webhook_events` table
+   - Unique constraint on `(gateway, event_id)`
+
+2. **Per-IP Rate Limiting** ✅ (P2-075)
+   - `WebhookRateLimiter` service
+   - 60 req/min for unknown IPs, 300 req/min for trusted gateway IPs
+   - CIDR range support
+
+3. **Fraud Detection** ✅ (P1-041)
+   - `FraudService` integration
+   - Velocity checks (IP/email limits, failed payment tracking)
+   - Geo-anomaly detection
+   - Stripe Radar integration
+
+4. **Input Sanitisation** ✅ (P1-042)
+   - Coupon code sanitisation (3-50 chars, alphanumeric only)
+   - Length limits and character validation
+
+5. **Payment Verification** ✅
+   - Amount verification for BTCPay settlements
+   - Currency mismatch detection
+
+---
+
+## 3. Test Suite Analysis
+
+### 3.1 Test Framework: Pest v3
+
+The project uses Pest (not PHPUnit) with Pest's function-based syntax:
+
+```php
+describe('Order Creation', function () {
+    it('creates an order for a package purchase', function () {
+        $order = $this->service->createOrder(
+            $this->workspace,
+            $this->package,
+            'monthly'
+        );
+        expect($order)->toBeInstanceOf(Order::class)
+            ->and($order->status)->toBe('pending');
+    });
+});
+```
+
+### 3.2 Test Coverage
+
+| Test File | Focus Area | Test Count |
+|-----------|-----------|------------|
+| `CheckoutFlowTest.php` | End-to-end checkout | ~15 scenarios |
+| `SubscriptionServiceTest.php` | Subscription lifecycle | Unknown |
+| `TaxServiceTest.php` | Tax calculation | Unknown |
+| `CouponServiceTest.php` | Discount logic | Unknown |
+| `DunningServiceTest.php` | Failed payment retry | Unknown |
+| `RefundServiceTest.php` | Refund processing | Unknown |
+| `WebhookTest.php` | Webhook handlers (BTCPay focus) | Unknown |
+| `CompoundSkuTest.php` | SKU parsing | Unknown |
+
+**Note:** Cannot run tests to get exact count due to missing dependencies.
+
+### 3.3 Test Dependencies
+
+Tests require:
+- `Core\Tenant\Models\Package` (from `host-uk/core`)
+- `Core\Tenant\Models\User` (from `host-uk/core`)
+- `Core\Tenant\Models\Workspace` (from `host-uk/core`)
+- `Core\Tenant\Services\EntitlementService` (from `host-uk/core`)
+
+### 3.4 Testing Gaps (Per TODO.md)
+
+**P2 - High Priority:**
+- ❌ Integration tests for Stripe webhook handlers (only BTCPay covered)
+- ❌ Concurrent subscription operation tests (race conditions)
+- ❌ Multi-currency order flow tests
+- ❌ Referral commission maturation edge cases (refund during maturation)
+
+**P3 - Medium Priority:**
+- ❌ Payment method management UI tests (Livewire components)
+
+---
+
+## 4. Code Quality Assessment
+
+### 4.1 Static Analysis Tools
+
+**Configured but not executable:**
+
+1. **Laravel Pint** (`vendor/bin/pint`)
+   - PSR-12 compliance
+   - `composer run lint` script defined
+
+2. **Pest** (`vendor/bin/pest`)
+   - `composer run test` script defined
+   - Uses Pest v3 syntax
+
+3. **PHPStan** (mentioned in issue, no config found)
+   - `vendor/bin/phpstan analyse --memory-limit=512M`
+   - No `phpstan.neon` or `phpstan.neon.dist` found in repository
+
+### 4.2 Code Quality Observations
+
+**Strengths:**
+- ✅ Consistent `declare(strict_types=1);` usage
+- ✅ Type hints on all method parameters and returns
+- ✅ PSR-12 formatting (based on Pint config)
+- ✅ UK English spellings throughout
+- ✅ Comprehensive PHPDoc blocks
+- ✅ Clear separation of concerns
+
+**Areas for Improvement (Per TODO.md P3-P4):**
+
+1. **Type Consistency (P3):**
+   - Mix of `float`, `decimal:2` casts, and `int` cents for money handling
+   - Recommendation: Consider `brick/money` package
+
+2. **DTO Consistency (P3):**
+   - `TaxResult` embedded in `TaxService.php` instead of `Data/TaxResult.php`
+   - `PaymentGatewayContract::refund()` returns array instead of `RefundResult` DTO
+
+3. **State Machine (P3):**
+   - Order status transitions scattered across models and services
+   - Recommendation: Create `OrderStateMachine` class
+
+4. **Livewire Typed Properties (P3):**
+   - Some Livewire components use `public $variable` without type hints
+
+---
+
+## 5. Database Schema
+
+### 5.1 Migrations
+
+**7 Migration Files:**
+
+1. `0001_01_01_000001_create_commerce_tables.php` - Core tables
+2. `0001_01_01_000002_create_credit_notes_table.php` - Credit notes
+3. `0001_01_01_000003_create_payment_methods_table.php` - Stored payment methods
+4. `2026_01_26_000000_create_usage_billing_tables.php` - Usage-based billing
+5. `2026_01_26_000001_create_exchange_rates_table.php` - Currency exchange
+6. `2026_01_26_000001_create_referral_tables.php` - Affiliate system
+7. `2026_01_29_000001_create_webhook_events_table.php` - Webhook deduplication
+
+### 5.2 Index Optimisation Opportunities (Per TODO.md P3)
+
+**Missing Indexes:**
+- `orders.idempotency_key` (unique index recommended)
+- `invoices.workspace_id, status` (composite index for dunning queries)
+
+---
+
+## 6. Stripe Integration Assessment
+
+### 6.1 StripeGateway Implementation
+
+**File:** `Services/PaymentGateway/StripeGateway.php` (23,326 LOC)
+
+**Capabilities:**
+- ✅ Customer management (create, update)
+- ✅ Checkout sessions (Stripe Checkout)
+- ✅ Payment methods (setup sessions, attach/detach)
+- ✅ Subscriptions (create, update, cancel, resume, pause)
+- ✅ One-time charges
+- ✅ Refunds
+- ✅ Invoice retrieval
+- ✅ Webhook verification (signature validation)
+- ✅ Tax rate creation
+- ✅ Customer portal URLs
+- ✅ Stripe Radar fraud detection
+
+**Webhook Events Handled:**
+
+Based on codebase references:
+- `charge.succeeded` - Fraud assessment
+- `payment_intent.succeeded` - Fraud assessment
+- Standard subscription events (likely)
+
+### 6.2 BTCPayGateway Implementation
+
+**File:** `Services/PaymentGateway/BTCPayGateway.php` (23,309 LOC)
+
+**Capabilities:**
+- ✅ Invoice creation (crypto payments)
+- ✅ Invoice status tracking
+- ✅ Webhook verification (HMAC signature)
+- ✅ Payment settlement handling
+- ⚠️ Limited subscription support (BTCPay is invoice-based)
+
+**Webhook Events:**
+- `InvoiceSettled` - Payment completed
+- `InvoiceExpired` - Payment window expired
+- `InvoicePartiallyPaid` - Partial payment received (mentioned in TODO as unhandled)
+
+### 6.3 Stripe vs BTCPay Priority
+
+**Default Gateway Logic:**
+
+```php
+public function getDefaultGateway(): string
+{
+    // BTCPay is primary, Stripe is fallback
+    if (config('commerce.gateways.btcpay.enabled')) {
+        return 'btcpay';
+    }
+    return 'stripe';
+}
+```
+
+**Interpretation:**
+- BTCPay preferred for cryptocurrency acceptance
+- Stripe used for traditional card payments
+- Both can be enabled simultaneously
+
+---
+
+## 7. Outstanding TODO Items
+
+### 7.1 Critical (P1) - Remaining
+
+**Input Validation:**
+- [ ] **Validate billing address components** - `Order::create()` accepts `billing_address` array without validating structure
+- [ ] **Add CSRF protection to API billing endpoints** - Routes use `auth` middleware but not `verified` or CSRF tokens
+
+### 7.2 High Priority (P2)
+
+**Data Integrity:**
+- [ ] Add pessimistic locking to `ReferralService::requestPayout()`
+- [ ] Add optimistic locking to `Subscription` model (version column)
+- [ ] Handle partial payments in BTCPay (`InvoicePartiallyPaid` webhook)
+
+**Missing Features:**
+- [ ] Implement provisioning API endpoints (commented out in `api.php`)
+- [ ] Add subscription upgrade/downgrade via API (proration handling)
+- [ ] Add payment method management UI tests
+- [ ] Implement credit note application to future invoices
+
+**Error Handling:**
+- [ ] Add retry mechanism for failed invoice PDF generation (queue job)
+- [ ] Improve error messages for checkout failures (gateway error mapping)
+- [ ] Add alerting for repeated payment failures (Slack/email after N failures)
+
+**Testing Gaps:**
+- [ ] Integration tests for Stripe webhook handlers
+- [ ] Tests for concurrent subscription operations
+- [ ] Tests for multi-currency order flow
+- [ ] Tests for referral commission maturation edge cases
+
