1. grounding: extract person-names uniformly for every scope + merge household
roster; grounded payees/providers/merchants/reminder titles now redacted
on external lanes (was vitals-only).
2. redact: whitespace/separator/case normalization before name pass; broadened
address (apt/city/ST/ZIP, PO Box, short/hyphenated), SSN (spaces+labeled),
intl phone, odd-grouped card, unlabeled+extra-labeled IDs. Benign order#/
merchant/product still survive.
3. routes/chat.js: fail CLOSED — no req.userId -> 401; removed DEV_USER_ID.
4. claude-cli: wrap user/context in <user_input> delimiters + neutralize forged
role-label lines so injected turns are inert (Gemini unaffected).
5. claude-cli: spawn with minimal allowlist env instead of full-inherit-then-
delete; DB_/AWS_/OPENAI secrets no longer leak to the child.
6. chat.js: persistent 'informational only' disclaimer on every assistant bubble
+ interstitial confirm before first external-model send on the vitals agent.
11 new golden regression tests; npm test 126/126 (1 pre-existing skip).

Harden nav-bar chat PII redaction boundary (TK-11084)
1. grounding: extract person-names uniformly for every scope + merge household
roster; grounded payees/providers/merchants/reminder titles now redacted
on external lanes (was vitals-only).
2. redact: whitespace/separator/case normalization before name pass; broadened
address (apt/city/ST/ZIP, PO Box, short/hyphenated), SSN (spaces+labeled),
intl phone, odd-grouped card, unlabeled+extra-labeled IDs. Benign order#/
merchant/product still survive.
3. routes/chat.js: fail CLOSED — no req.userId -> 401; removed DEV_USER_ID.
4. claude-cli: wrap user/context in <user_input> delimiters + neutralize forged
role-label lines so injected turns are inert (Gemini unaffected).
5. claude-cli: spawn with minimal allowlist env instead of full-inherit-then-
delete; DB_/AWS_/OPENAI secrets no longer leak to the child.
6. chat.js: persistent 'informational only' disclaimer on every assistant bubble
+ interstitial confirm before first external-model send on the vitals agent.
11 new golden regression tests; npm test 126/126 (1 pre-existing skip).
