account.approved never fires for a signup that went through open
registration without ever being queued (no prior block on that
address). process_signup was waiting on that event forever, so the
first flagged signup on any new bad IP/email domain never got welcomed
or watched by the suspicious-sweep. Now checks Admin::Account.approved
from the account.created payload and acts immediately if it's already
true.
Watches every account flagged by IP-scrutiny or email-domain scrutiny at
signup and, once it goes live, records a baseline post/follow count. A
scheduled sweep (app/suspicious_sweep.py, run via cron on admin.yttrx.com)
suspends any watch past SUSPICIOUS_GRACE_HOURS with zero new posts and
zero new follows since that baseline; any activity clears the watch.
Works whether yttrx is open-registration or requires moderator approval,
since the watch starts at whichever event actually makes the account live
(account.created vs account.approved), same dual handling the welcome flow
already uses. Needs ABUSE_BOT_TOKEN re-minted with admin:read:accounts.
Classifies each signup's email domain (domain-only, GDPR-friendly) alongside
the existing IP scrutiny signal, with matching held-welcome and auto
email_domain_block behavior. A report against an account with a flagged
domain suspends immediately (no reporter-count threshold) and blocks the
domain, classified live from the report payload rather than any signup-time
record so it also covers pre-existing accounts. Ships CHECK_MAIL_DRY_RUN=true
by default, independent of ABUSE_DRY_RUN, so the new report-triggered suspend
path stays inert until watched.
