docs: Gemini confirms Arbiter lifecycle handlers NOT yet built

Arbiter 3.5.0 has:
 checkout.session.completed (new subscriptions)

Arbiter 3.5.0 does NOT have:
 Cancellation handling
 Grace period (3-day)
 Chargeback handling
 invoice.payment_failed handler
 subscription.cancelled handler
 4 AM sweeper job

Task #87 remains HIGH PRIORITY for subscriber lifecycle.

# Gemini Consultation: Arbiter 3.5.0 Feature Verification
**Date:** April 4, 2026, 11:15 PM CDT
**From:** Michael (The Wizard) + Claude (Chronicler #59)
**To:** Gemini (Architectural Partner)
**Re:** Confirming what's implemented in Arbiter 3.5.0
---
## Hey Gemini! 👋
Quick verification request. We're doing backlog cleanup and need to confirm what's actually in Arbiter 3.5.0 so we can archive completed tasks.
## The Question
**Task #87 (Arbiter 2.1)** was planned to add:
1. Subscription cancellation handling
2. Payment failure with 3-day grace period
3. Chargeback handling (immediate permanent ban)
4. "We Don't Kick People Out" philosophy (downgrade to Awakened, never remove)
5. Stripe webhook handlers for `invoice.payment_failed`, `subscription.cancelled`, `chargeback.created`
6. 4 AM grace period sweeper job
**You wrote the code for Arbiter 3.5.0.**
Can you confirm which of these features ARE implemented in the current production code?
## What We Need
A simple checklist:
- [ ] or [x] for each feature
- Any caveats or "partially implemented" notes
- Anything that still needs work
## Context
- Arbiter 3.5.0 is deployed at `discord-bot.firefrostgaming.com`
- Stripe webhooks configured at `/webhooks/stripe/webhook`
- We went LIVE on April 3, 2026
- No real subscribers yet to test the full flow

Thanks Gemini! 🔥❄️

## Gemini's Response (April 4, 2026)
**Summary:** The lifecycle handlers are NOT yet implemented.
**What IS in Arbiter 3.5.0:**
-`checkout.session.completed` webhook (Stateless OAuth Bridge, new subscriptions)
**What is NOT in Arbiter 3.5.0:**
- ❌ Subscription cancellation handling
- ❌ Payment failure with 3-day grace period
- ❌ Chargeback handling (immediate permanent ban)
- ❌ "We Don't Kick People Out" downgrade logic
-`invoice.payment_failed` handler
-`subscription.cancelled` handler
-`chargeback.created` handler
- ❌ 4 AM grace period sweeper job
**Gemini's Request:** Needs to see current webhook handler code and sweeper script to audit against Task #87 requirements.
---
## Conclusion
**Task #87 (Arbiter 2.1 Cancellation Flow) is STILL NEEDED.**
The Gemini-reviewed architecture and code blocks from March 30, 2026 are ready to implement. This remains a high-priority item for subscriber lifecycle management.
**Next Steps:**
1. Share webhook handler code with Gemini
2. Implement the missing lifecycle handlers
3. Test with real subscription events
