Summary by CodeRabbit

Summary

  • New Features
    • Verified badges can show available verification methods, including identity, manual, X, and academic email verification. Details load when the badge tooltip is opened and are available in activity, feed, and profile views. When no methods are available, the tooltip displays a general verified-identity message.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Tooltips recalculate their position when their size changes, helping keep them correctly placed on screen.

Walkthrough

Author profiles now expose verification methods. Verified badges can load and display method details in tooltips. Tooltip positioning recalculates when tooltip content resizes.

Changes: Verification method tooltips

Layer / File(s) Summary
Verification method data and loading
types/authorProfile.ts, hooks/useAuthor.ts
AuthorProfile now includes optional verification methods. The new hook uses supplied methods or loads them from author info.
Badge details and caller data
components/ui/VerifiedBadge.tsx, components/Activity/cards/*, components/Feed/FeedItemHeader.tsx, components/profile/ProfileHeroBanner.tsx
VerifiedBadge displays loading, fallback, or method-specific tooltip content. Activity and feed badges receive author IDs; the profile banner passes known methods.
Tooltip position updates
components/ui/Tooltip.tsx
TooltipContent observes its size and recalculates placement when the size changes. It disconnects the observer during cleanup.

Priority: Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: Low · up to ee44d

Keyboard users still cannot open the new verification details. The change is otherwise mergeable with this accessibility issue acknowledged and scheduled for correction.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to ca641

The changes display verification details through existing author-profile reads without visibly changing verification eligibility or access controls. The main uncertainty is whether the production API guarantees the identity, permitted values and visibility of those details.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The evidenced expansion is additional author-profile reads from activity and feed badge interactions, plus display of verification categories on existing verified profiles. The reviewed changes do not introduce a verification mutation or additional privilege; backend visibility guarantees for these categories remain unverified.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — API-provided method values pass through the transformer and select static labels and icons, rather than becoming executable markup or links. The consumer assumes the declared enum and directly indexes its mapping; neither runtime enum validation nor backend producer guarantees were established.

Explanation

The title "X Verification" names the main change. The PR lets users verify through X and updates the verification UI to show multiple verification types, including X. The title is short and specific, but it does not say what the change does. It is also a noun phrase, not a full sentence. This is a partial match to the title criteria, which still passes because it refers to a real and central part of the change.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @components/ui/VerifiedBadge.tsx:
- Line 75: Make the tooltip trigger span keyboard-focusable and invoke
loadVerificationMethods on focus when showTooltip is enabled, matching its
existing pointer-entry behavior.

Review comments at @hooks/useAuthor.ts:
- Line 175: Update the loaded-methods state in the useAuthor flow to store the
methods together with the authorId they belong to. Before using loadedMethods as
a fallback for knownMethods, verify its authorId matches the current authorId,
and ignore request results that resolve after the authorId changes.
- Line 182: In useAuthor, change the request failure handler so it leaves
methods unresolved instead of calling setLoadedMethods with an empty array. This
keeps the methods guard open, allowing a later hover to retry after a temporary
failure.
