What It Does
Lets users change their email address securely.

How It Works
User requests email change → Enters new email and password

System sends verification email → Link sent to new email

User clicks verification link → Confirms they own the new email

Email gets updated → Old and new emails get notified

Key Features
Secure - Requires verification before changing

User-friendly - Simple web interface

Reliable - Handles errors and duplicates

Fast - Quick verification process

Technology
Python + Flask - Web server

Token verification - Secure email confirmation

Web interface - Easy testing

Use Cases
User changes jobs and needs new work email

Old email becomes inactive

Personal preference for different email provider


Important

This PR adds a secure email change feature with verification, involving frontend, backend, and database updates.

  • Behavior:
    • Users can request email changes via ChangeEmailForm in changeemailform.jsx, requiring current password and new email.
    • Verification email sent to new email; both old and new emails receive notifications.
    • Email change verified through a token, expiring in 24 hours.
  • Backend:
    • Adds UserAPI class in ai.py for handling email change requests and verification.
    • Implements UserService in user_service.py for managing email change logic and token validation.
    • Introduces EmailService in email_service.py for sending verification and notification emails.
    • Adds routes in routers.py for email change, verification, and cancellation.
  • Database:
    • Updates User model in models.py with fields for pending email, verification token, and token creation time.
    • Adds EmailChangeLog model for logging email change requests.
  • Configuration:
    • Updates .env.template with SMTP and database configurations.
    • Adds ProjectConfig in project_config.py for email change settings.
  • Misc:
    • Initializes Flask app in app.py and registers user blueprint.

4. main/app.py:13
  • Draft comment:
    Database session initialization is missing. Ensure to initialize a proper DB session and pass it to your services.
  • Reason this comment was not posted:
    Decided after close inspection that this draft comment was likely wrong and/or not actionable: usefulness confidence = 20% vs. threshold = 50% The comment is pointing to a legitimate issue - there's a TODO comment indicating database initialization is needed, and we see UserService imported but not initialized. However, this could be intentional as part of incremental development. The comment doesn't add much value beyond the existing TODO comment. The comment might be highlighting a critical infrastructure component that's missing. Without a database session, the application might not function properly. While database initialization is important, the existing TODO comment already indicates this is a known pending task. The automated comment doesn't add any new information or specific guidance. The comment should be deleted as it merely restates what's already indicated by the TODO comment and doesn't provide additional actionable guidance.
5. main/app.py:16
  • Draft comment:
    There's a trailing whitespace at line 16 and the file is missing a newline at the end. Please remove the extra whitespace and add a newline at the end of the file.
  • Reason this comment was not posted:
    Decided after close inspection that this draft comment was likely wrong and/or not actionable: usefulness confidence = 10% vs. threshold = 50% While these are real style issues, they are very minor and would likely be caught by standard linters or formatters. Most IDEs automatically handle these issues. The comment doesn't point out any logical or functional problems. The issues don't affect code behavior at all. These style issues could accumulate over time and make the codebase less consistent if not addressed. Some version control systems and tools can behave differently without end-of-file newlines. While true, these are such minor issues that they don't warrant a PR comment. They should be handled by automated tooling rather than manual review comments. Delete this comment as it points out trivial style issues that should be handled by automated tooling rather than taking up reviewer and developer attention.

Using message.includes('error') to determine alert type is brittle; consider using a dedicated error flag from the API response.

Consider using request-scoped database sessions instead of a global session to better handle concurrency.

Missing imports for datetime and timedelta are required for token expiration logic.

SMTP configuration validation always warns since 'smtp_server' is never set in init; revise the validation logic.
