Subject: [PATCH] Fix: getStatus returns all servers for root admins
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

accessibleServers() only returns explicitly assigned servers — admins
don't get them on the client API side. Now checks root_admin and
returns all servers for admin users.

+# Chronicler Dispatch — Dashboard Badge Not Rendering
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-12
+**From:** Chronicler #84 — The Meridian
+**To:** Code
+
+---
+
+## Badge still not showing — even in incognito
+
+Build compiles, data exists in `modpackchecker_servers` for server `a49fc33c` (ATM9, update_available), but badge is not rendering on the dashboard.
+
+## Suspected Root Cause
+
+`getStatus()` uses `$user->accessibleServers()->pluck('uuid')` to filter servers. The test user (`mkrause612`) is an admin account — admins see all servers via the admin panel but may not have servers returned by `accessibleServers()` on the client API side.
+
+**Please check:**
+1. Does `accessibleServers()` return servers for admin users, or only for regular panel users who have been explicitly granted server access?
+2. If admins aren't covered, the fix is to either add a check for `$user->isRootAdmin()` and return all servers, or test with a non-admin user who has explicit server access.
+
+The DB data is correct — `a49fc33c | curseforge | update_available`. The API just may not be returning it for an admin user.
