# Threema UX rework + QR code
## Files
```
src/lib/threema-gateway-config.ts # NEW — single source of truth for gateway ID + QR path
src/components/channel-users/threema-setup.tsx # NEW — QR + 3-step instructions component
src/components/channel-users/channel-users.tsx # MODIFIED — renders for the threema channel
deploy/patch-i18n-threema.mjs # REPLACES earlier version — customer-friendly texts in 4 langs
public/threema/qr_code_AIAGENT.png # NEW — the QR you uploaded
```
## What changed (UX, customer-facing)
1. **Package description / instructions / disclaimer.** No mention of
"Gateway account", "Gateway credentials", or anything about asterisks.
The disclaimer now explicitly says messages are end-to-end encrypted
only up to PieCed's messaging service (where they get decrypted to
route to the assistant) — accurate, not overclaiming. Crucially it
also says **Threema charges per message** so customers know that
sending/receiving on this channel has a cost separate from their
PieCed subscription.
2. **Threema ID help text.** Now tells the customer to add **their
own** ID, with explicit instructions for finding it in the Threema
app (Settings → My Threema ID). Drops the asterisk / Gateway-prefix
explanation entirely.
3. **QR code component (NEW).** Shown above the help text in the
channel-users panel when the threema channel is enabled. Three-step
flow: open Threema, scan, add your own ID below.
4. **All four languages** (en/de/fr/it) updated consistently.
## What changed (technical)
- Gateway constants centralised in `src/lib/threema-gateway-config.ts`.
Today hardcoded to `*AIAGENT` + `/threema/qr_code_AIAGENT.png`. When
you need multiple gateway accounts, edit that one file (and the
inline TODO block tells the next person how).
- The component uses Next.js `` — automatic optimisation,
lazy-loaded by default (no `priority`).
- The PNG goes in `public/threema/`, served as a static asset under
`/threema/qr_code_AIAGENT.png` — no API route, no auth wrapper, the
QR encodes a Threema invitation anyone can scan anyway.
## Apply
```bash
cd /path/to/pieced-portal
# Drop in new files (overwrites prior channel-users.tsx and i18n script)
cp -r /* .
# Quick TS check (the new component uses next/image — should be fine)
npx tsc --noEmit
# Patch the message files
node deploy/patch-i18n-threema.mjs
# Should print 4 lines, one per language
# Commit + push
git add -A
git status # eyeball the changes
git commit -m "Threema: customer-friendly texts + QR setup component"
git push
```
## Verify after redeploy
1. Open the portal as a customer admin, pick the test tenant.
2. Disable + re-enable Threema in the package list (or just look at
the channel-users panel — the QR shows there regardless).
3. Authorized Users → threema section should show:
- QR code on the left
- "AIAGENT" label under the QR (no asterisk)
- 3-step instruction list
- Help text below: "Enter your own Threema ID..."
- Existing user pills + Add input
Scan the QR with your phone — it should prompt to add `*AIAGENT` as a
contact in Threema with trust level "verified by the operator" (the
QR encodes the contact's public key).
## Billing log query (re-run after sending a few messages)
```bash
POD=$(kubectl -n threema-gateway get pods -l 'cnpg.io/cluster=pieced-threema-gateway-db,role=primary' -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}')
DBPASS=$(kubectl -n threema-gateway get secret pieced-threema-gateway-db-app -o jsonpath='{.data.password}' | base64 -d)
# Per-tenant in/out counts
kubectl -n threema-gateway exec $POD -- env PGPASSWORD="$DBPASS" \
psql -U relay -d relay -c \
"SELECT tenant_name, direction, count(*), max(created_at) FROM messages GROUP BY tenant_name, direction ORDER BY tenant_name, direction;"
```
That's your billing source — count(*) × Threema's per-message rate ×
direction-specific multiplier = customer charge.
## Future: dynamic gateway accounts
Today's hardcoded `*AIAGENT` works for one shared gateway. When you
move to per-tenant gateway accounts (Threema's bigger plans, or to
isolate billing per tenant):
1. Update `src/lib/threema-gateway-config.ts`:
- Make the constants a lookup keyed by tenant
- Or fetch from `/api/tenants//threema` (new admin route)
2. Update `threema-setup.tsx` to accept gateway info as props
3. Update the parent `channel-users.tsx` to pass tenant-specific values
4. Replace the static PNG with a server route that generates per-tenant
QR codes from each gateway's `id` + `publicKey`
The single config file means this refactor is contained — every
consumer reads from one place, so once that one place returns the
right values, everything else falls in line.
