# Round Type: INTAKE — Application Window
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## 1. Overview
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The **INTAKE round** is the first phase of any MOPC competition. It represents the application submission window where teams apply to participate by submitting their ocean conservation projects along with required documentation.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Purpose
|
|||
|
|
- Collect project applications from teams worldwide
|
|||
|
|
- Capture essential project information (title, description, team, ocean issue addressed)
|
|||
|
|
- Receive required documentation (executive summaries, business plans, videos)
|
|||
|
|
- Support draft/save-and-continue workflow for incomplete applications
|
|||
|
|
- Enforce submission deadlines with configurable late submission policies
|
|||
|
|
- Enable both authenticated (user login) and public (anonymous) application flows
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Position in Competition Flow

## 2. Current System (Pipeline/Track/Stage)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### How Intake Works Today
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In the current architecture, intake is implemented as a **Stage** with `StageType: INTAKE` inside the MAIN track.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
// Current structure
|
|||
|
|
Pipeline: "MOPC 2026"
|
|||
|
|
└─ Track: "Main Competition" (kind: MAIN)
|
|||
|
|
└─ Stage: "Intake" (stageType: INTAKE)
|
|||
|
|
├─ windowOpenAt: 2026-01-15T00:00:00Z
|
|||
|
|
├─ windowCloseAt: 2026-03-01T23:59:59Z
|
|||
|
|
├─ configJson: {
|
|||
|
|
│ submissionWindowEnabled: true,
|
|||
|
|
│ lateSubmissionPolicy: "flag",
|
|||
|
|
│ lateGraceHours: 24,
|
|||
|
|
│ fileRequirements: [...]
|
|||
|
|
│ }
|
|||
|
|
└─ FileRequirement records (linked to stageId)
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Current Config Fields (src/lib/pipeline-defaults.ts)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
type IntakeConfig = {
|
|||
|
|
submissionWindowEnabled: boolean // Whether submission is open
|
|||
|
|
lateSubmissionPolicy: 'reject' | 'flag' | 'accept'
|
|||
|
|
lateGraceHours: number // Hours after close for late submissions
|
|||
|
|
fileRequirements: FileRequirementConfig[]
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
type FileRequirementConfig = {
|
|||
|
|
name: string // "Executive Summary"
|
|||
|
|
description?: string // Help text
|
|||
|
|
acceptedMimeTypes: string[] // ["application/pdf"]
|
|||
|
|
maxSizeMB?: number // 50
|
|||
|
|
isRequired: boolean // true
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Current Applicant Flow
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Access**: Applicant visits `/applicant/pipeline/{slug}` or receives invite link
|
|||
|
|
2. **Auth**: User logs in (email magic link or password) or proceeds as guest
|
|||
|
|
3. **Form**: Fills out project form (title, description, category, ocean issue, team info)
|
|||
|
|
4. **Files**: Uploads required files (exec summary, business plan, video)
|
|||
|
|
5. **Draft**: Can save as draft and return later
|
|||
|
|
6. **Submit**: Final submission creates Project record with status "SUBMITTED"
|
|||
|
|
7. **Email**: Confirmation email sent if configured
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Current Admin Experience
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Admins configure the intake stage via the pipeline wizard:
|
|||
|
|
- Set open/close dates
|
|||
|
|
- Define file requirements (name, mime types, size limits, required/optional)
|
|||
|
|
- Choose late submission policy (reject, flag, accept)
|
|||
|
|
- Set grace period for late submissions
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Current Database Schema
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```prisma
|
|||
|
|

...
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Current Limitations
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Issue | Impact |
|
|||
|
|
|-------|--------|
|
|||
|
|
| **Single submission window** | Can't require new docs from semi-finalists |
|
|||
|
|
| **No form builder** | All fields hardcoded in application code |
|
|||
|
|
| **No category quotas at intake** | Can't limit "first 50 startups, first 50 concepts" |
|
|||
|
|
| **Generic configJson** | Unclear what fields exist for intake stages |
|
|||
|
|
| **File requirements per stage** | Awkward: "intake stage" is the only stage with file requirements |
|
|||
|
|
| **No dynamic forms** | Can't add custom questions per competition year |
|
|||
|
|
| **No public form branding** | External applicants see generic MOPC form |

## 4. Application Form System
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### ApplicationForm Model (Future Enhancement)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
For now, the application form is hardcoded. In the future, a dynamic form builder will replace this.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```prisma
|
|||
|
|
model ApplicationForm {
|
|||
|
|
id String @id @default(cuid())
|
|||
|
|
competitionId String
|
|||
|
|
name String // "MOPC 2026 Application"
|
|||
|
|
description String?
|
|||
|
|
fieldsJson Json @db.JsonB // Array of field definitions
|
|||
|
|
version Int @default(1)
|
|||
|
|
isActive Boolean @default(true)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
createdAt DateTime @default(now())
|
|||
|
|
updatedAt DateTime @updatedAt
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
competition Competition @relation(fields: [competitionId], references: [id], onDelete: Cascade)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
@@index([competitionId])
|
|||
|
|
@@index([isActive])
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Standard Form Fields (Hardcoded for MVP)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
type ApplicationFormData = {
|
|||
|
|
// Project Info
|
|||
|
|
title: string // Required, 1-500 chars
|
|||
|
|
teamName?: string // Optional
|
|||
|
|
description: string // Required, max 5000 chars
|
|||
|
|
competitionCategory: 'STARTUP' | 'BUSINESS_CONCEPT' // Required
|
|||
|
|
oceanIssue: OceanIssue // Required enum
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
// Location
|
|||
|
|
country: string // Required
|
|||
|
|
geographicZone?: string // "Europe, France"
|
|||
|
|
institution?: string // Required for BUSINESS_CONCEPT
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
// Founding
|
|||
|
|
foundedAt?: Date // When project/company started
|

### Field Validation Rules
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Field | Validation | Error Message |
|
|||
|
|
|-------|-----------|---------------|
|
|||
|
|
| `title` | Required, 1-500 chars | "Project title is required" |
|
|||
|
|
| `description` | Required, max 5000 chars | "Description must be under 5000 characters" |
|
|||
|
|
| `competitionCategory` | Required enum | "Please select Startup or Business Concept" |
|
|||
|
|
| `oceanIssue` | Required enum | "Please select an ocean issue" |
|
|||
|
|
| `country` | Required string | "Country is required" |
|
|||
|
|
| `institution` | Required if category = BUSINESS_CONCEPT | "Institution is required for student projects" |
|
|||
|
|
| `teamMembers[].email` | Valid email format | "Invalid email address" |
|
|||
|
|
| `teamMembers.length` | >= minTeamSize, <= maxTeamSize | "Team must have 1-5 members" |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Conditional Logic
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Institution field**: Only shown/required when `competitionCategory = BUSINESS_CONCEPT`
|
|||
|
|
- **Team members section**: Only shown if `requireTeamProfile = true` in config
|
|||
|
|
- **Mentorship checkbox**: Always shown, default unchecked

## 5. Submission Window Integration
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### SubmissionWindow Model (from 03-data-model.md)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```prisma
|
|||
|
|
model SubmissionWindow {
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
competitionId String

|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
slug String // "round-1-docs"
|
|||
|
|
roundNumber Int // 1 (first window), 2 (second window), etc.
|
|||
|
|
sortOrder Int @default(0)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
windowOpenAt DateTime?
|

|
|

|
|

|
|||

```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### How Intake Round Links to SubmissionWindow
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
// Round creation
|
|||
|
|
const round = await prisma.round.create({
|
|||
|
|
data: {
|
|||
|
|
competitionId: competition.id,
|
|||
|
|
name: "Application Window",
|
|||
|
|
slug: "application-window",
|
|||
|
|
roundType: "INTAKE",
|
|||
|
|
sortOrder: 0,
|
|||
|
|
windowOpenAt: new Date("2026-01-15T00:00:00Z"),
|
|||
|
|
windowCloseAt: new Date("2026-03-01T23:59:59Z"),
|
|||
|
|
submissionWindowId: submissionWindow.id, // Link to window
|
|||
|
|
configJson: {
|
|||
|
|
applicationFormId: "form-2026",
|
|||
|
|
submissionWindowId: submissionWindow.id, // Redundant but explicit
|
|||
|
|
deadlinePolicy: "GRACE",
|
|||
|
|
gracePeriodMinutes: 180,
|
|||
|
|
// ... rest of IntakeConfig
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
})
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### File Requirements for Intake
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Admin configures file requirements at the **SubmissionWindow** level, not the round level.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
// Example: Create file requirements for Round 1 docs
|
|||
|
|
const requirements = await prisma.submissionFileRequirement.createMany({
|
|||
|
|
data: [
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
submissionWindowId: "sw-1",
|
|||
|
|
name: "Executive Summary",
|
|||
|
|
description: "A PDF executive summary of your project (max 2 pages)",
|
|||
|
|
acceptedMimeTypes: ["application/pdf"],
|
|||
|
|
maxSizeMB: 10,
|
|||
|
|
isRequired: true,
|
|||
|
|
sortOrder: 0,
|
|||
|
|
},
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
submissionWindowId: "sw-1",
|
|||
|
|
name: "Business Plan",
|
|||
|
|
description: "Full business plan or project proposal (PDF)",
|
|||
|
|
acceptedMimeTypes: ["application/pdf"],
|
|||
|
|
maxSizeMB: 50,
|
|||
|
|
isRequired: true,
|
|||
|
|
sortOrder: 1,
|
|||
|
|
},
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
submissionWindowId: "sw-1",
|
|||
|
|
name: "Video Pitch",
|
|||
|
|
description: "Optional video pitch (max 5 minutes, MP4 or MOV)",
|
|||
|
|
acceptedMimeTypes: ["video/mp4", "video/quicktime"],
|
|||
|
|
maxSizeMB: 500,
|
|||
|
|
isRequired: false,
|
|||
|
|
sortOrder: 2,
|
|||
|
|
},
|
|||
|
|
]
|
|||
|
|
})
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Deadline Enforcement
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When an applicant tries to upload a file or submit the form:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
async function canSubmitToWindow(submissionWindow: SubmissionWindow): Promise<{
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: boolean
|
|||
|
|
reason?: string
|
|||
|
|
isLate?: boolean
|
|||
|
|
}> {
|
|||
|
|
const now = new Date()
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
// Not yet open
|
|||
|
|
if (submissionWindow.windowOpenAt && now < submissionWindow.windowOpenAt) {
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: false,
|
|||
|
|
reason: `Window opens on ${submissionWindow.windowOpenAt.toLocaleDateString()}`
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
// Window closed
|
|||
|
|
if (submissionWindow.windowCloseAt && now > submissionWindow.windowCloseAt) {
|
|||
|
|
const { deadlinePolicy, graceHours } = submissionWindow
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
if (deadlinePolicy === 'HARD') {
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: false,
|
|||
|
|
reason: "Deadline has passed. Submissions are no longer accepted."
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
if (deadlinePolicy === 'GRACE' && graceHours) {
|
|||
|
|
const graceDeadline = new Date(submissionWindow.windowCloseAt.getTime() + graceHours * 60 * 60 * 1000)
|
|||
|
|
if (now > graceDeadline) {
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: false,
|
|||
|
|
reason: `Grace period ended on ${graceDeadline.toLocaleString()}`
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: true,
|
|||
|
|
isLate: true
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
if (deadlinePolicy === 'FLAG') {
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: true,
|
|||
|
|
isLate: true
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
return { canSubmit: true }
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|

## 6. Draft System
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Auto-Save Behavior
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When `allowDraftSubmissions: true`, the form auto-saves every 30 seconds (or on field blur).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
// Draft auto-save
|
|||
|
|
const saveDraft = async (formData: Partial<ApplicationFormData>) => {
|
|||
|
|
const project = await trpc.applicant.saveDraft.mutate({
|
|||
|
|
programId: programId,
|
|||
|
|
projectId: existingProjectId, // null for new draft
|
|||
|
|
draftData: formData,
|
|||
|
|
})
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
return project
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
// Draft expiry
|
|||
|
|
const draftExpiresAt = new Date()
|
|||
|
|
draftExpiresAt.setDate(draftExpiresAt.getDate() + config.draftExpiryDays)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
await prisma.project.upsert({
|
|||
|
|
where: { id: projectId },
|
|||
|
|
update: {
|
|||
|
|
isDraft: true,
|
|||
|
|
draftDataJson: formData,
|
|||
|
|
draftExpiresAt: draftExpiresAt,
|
|||
|
|
updatedAt: new Date(),
|
|||
|
|
},
|
|||
|
|
create: {
|
|||
|
|
programId,
|
|||
|
|
isDraft: true,
|
|||
|
|
draftDataJson: formData,
|
|||
|
|
draftExpiresAt: draftExpiresAt,
|
|||
|
|
status: 'SUBMITTED', // Will change to DRAFT status in redesign
|
|||
|
|
submittedByUserId: userId,
|
|||
|
|
submissionSource: 'PUBLIC_FORM',
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
})
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Resume Draft Flow
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. User returns to application page
|
|||
|
|
2. System checks for existing draft:
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
const draft = await prisma.project.findFirst({
|
|||
|
|
where: {
|
|||
|
|
programId,
|
|||
|
|
submittedByUserId: userId,
|
|||
|
|
isDraft: true,
|
|||
|
|
draftExpiresAt: { gt: new Date() } // Not expired
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
})
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
3. If found, pre-populate form with `draft.draftDataJson`
|
|||
|
|
4. User can continue editing or discard draft
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Validation States
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
type FormValidationState = {
|
|||
|
|
isValid: boolean
|
|||
|
|
canSaveDraft: boolean // Always true
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: boolean // All required fields filled + files uploaded
|
|||
|
|
errors: Record<string, string>
|
|||
|
|
warnings: Record<string, string>
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
// Example states:
|
|||
|
|
// 1. Empty form → isValid: false, canSaveDraft: true, canSubmit: false
|
|||
|
|
// 2. Partial form → isValid: false, canSaveDraft: true, canSubmit: false
|
|||
|
|
// 3. Complete form → isValid: true, canSaveDraft: true, canSubmit: true
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||

## 9. Deadline Behavior
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Deadline Policy Comparison
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Policy | Before Deadline | After Deadline | Grace Period | Flagged |
|
|||
|
|
|--------|----------------|----------------|--------------|---------|
|
|||
|
|
| **HARD** | ✅ Accept | ❌ Block | N/A | N/A |
|
|||
|
|
| **FLAG** | ✅ Accept | ✅ Accept | N/A | ✅ Yes |
|
|||
|
|
| **GRACE** | ✅ Accept | ✅ Accept (for N min) | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes (after grace) |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### HARD Policy Behavior
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Configuration:**
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
deadlinePolicy: "HARD",
|
|||
|
|
gracePeriodMinutes: null // Ignored
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**User Experience:**
|
|||
|
|
- **Before deadline**: Form is fully functional, all uploads allowed
|
|||
|
|
- **At deadline**: Form locks immediately at `windowCloseAt`
|
|||
|
|
- **After deadline**: Form displays:
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
❌ Deadline Passed
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The application deadline was March 1, 2026 at 11:59 PM UTC.
|
|||
|
|
Submissions are no longer accepted.

|||

|||
|
|
Contact admin@monaco-opc.com for assistance.
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Admin Override:**
|
|||
|
|
- Admin can create a `GracePeriod` record for specific applicant
|
|||
|
|
- This extends their personal deadline (doesn't affect global deadline)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### FLAG Policy Behavior
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Configuration:**
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
deadlinePolicy: "FLAG",
|
|||
|
|
gracePeriodMinutes: null // Ignored
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**User Experience:**
|
|||
|
|
- **Before deadline**: Normal submission
|
|||
|
|
- **After deadline**: Warning banner shown:
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
⚠️ Late Submission
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The deadline was March 1, 2026. Your submission will be marked as late.
|
|||
|
|
You can still submit, but late submissions may be deprioritized.
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
- Submission still works, but `ProjectFile.isLate` set to `true`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Database Effect:**
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
await prisma.projectFile.create({
|
|||
|
|
data: {
|
|||
|
|
projectId,
|
|||
|
|
submissionWindowId,
|
|||
|
|
requirementId,
|
|||
|
|
fileName,
|
|||
|
|
mimeType,
|
|||
|
|
size,
|
|||
|
|
bucket,
|
|||
|
|
objectKey,
|
|||
|
|
isLate: true, // Flagged
|
|||
|
|
// ...
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
})
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### GRACE Policy Behavior
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Configuration:**
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
deadlinePolicy: "GRACE",
|
|||
|
|
gracePeriodMinutes: 180 // 3 hours
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**User Experience:**
|
|||
|
|
- **Before deadline**: Normal submission
|
|||
|
|
- **0-3 hours after deadline**: Warning banner:
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
⏱️ Grace Period Active
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Deadline: March 1, 2026 11:59 PM UTC (passed)
|
|||
|
|
Grace period ends: March 2, 2026 2:59 AM UTC (1 hour 23 minutes remaining)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Your submission will be marked as late. Please submit as soon as possible.
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
- **After grace period**: Hard block (same as HARD policy)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Grace Period Calculation:**
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
const graceDeadline = new Date(windowCloseAt.getTime() + gracePeriodMinutes * 60 * 1000)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
if (now > windowCloseAt && now <= graceDeadline) {
|
|||
|
|
// In grace period
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: true,
|
|||
|
|
isLate: true,
|
|||
|
|
graceEndsAt: graceDeadline,
|
|||
|
|
remainingMinutes: Math.floor((graceDeadline - now) / 60000)
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```

## 10. Category Quotas
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### How Category Quotas Work
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When `categoryQuotasEnabled: true`, the system tracks submissions per category and enforces limits.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Configuration:**
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
categoryQuotasEnabled: true,
|
|||
|
|
categoryQuotas: {
|
|||
|
|
STARTUP: 100,
|
|||
|
|
BUSINESS_CONCEPT: 100
|
|||
|
|
},
|
|||
|
|
quotaOverflowPolicy: "reject" // or "waitlist"
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Quota Enforcement Flow
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
|
async function canSubmitInCategory(
|
|||
|
|
competitionId: string,
|
|||
|
|
category: 'STARTUP' | 'BUSINESS_CONCEPT',
|
|||
|
|
config: IntakeConfig
|
|||
|
|
): Promise<{ canSubmit: boolean; reason?: string }> {
|
|||
|
|
if (!config.categoryQuotasEnabled || !config.categoryQuotas) {
|
|||
|
|
return { canSubmit: true }
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
const quota = config.categoryQuotas[category]
|
|||
|
|
if (!quota) {
|
|||
|
|
return { canSubmit: true }
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
const submittedCount = await prisma.project.count({
|
|||
|
|
where: {
|
|||
|
|
competitionId,
|
|||
|
|
competitionCategory: category,
|
|||
|
|
isDraft: false, // Don't count drafts
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
})
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
if (submittedCount >= quota) {
|
|||
|
|
if (config.quotaOverflowPolicy === 'waitlist') {
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: true,
|
|||
|
|
reason: `Quota full (${submittedCount}/${quota}). You're on the waitlist.`
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
} else {
|
|||
|
|
return {
|
|||
|
|
canSubmit: false,
|
|||
|
|
reason: `Quota full (${submittedCount}/${quota}). No more ${category} applications accepted.`
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
return { canSubmit: true }
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
```

|
|

### Overflow Handling
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Reject Policy:**
|
|||
|
|
- Form shows error: "Category quota reached. No more startups/concepts accepted."
|
|||
|
|
- User cannot submit
|
|||
|
|
- Draft is saved but cannot be finalized
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Waitlist Policy:**
|
|||
|
|
- Submission accepted, but `Project.status = WAITLISTED` (new status)
|
|||
|
|
- User sees message: "You're on the waitlist (position #12). We'll notify you if a slot opens."
|
|||
|
|
- If someone withdraws, next waitlist entry promoted to SUBMITTED

## 14. Edge Cases
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Edge Case | Behavior | Solution |
|
|||
|
|
|-----------|----------|----------|
|
|||
|
|
| **User starts draft, deadline passes** | Draft is preserved but cannot submit | Show banner: "Deadline passed. Contact admin if you need extension." Admin can grant GracePeriod. |
|
|||
|
|
| **User submits at exact deadline second** | Accept if server time <= windowCloseAt | Use database server time for consistency |
|
|||
|
|
| **Category quota reached mid-submission** | Check quota again on final submit | Race condition: if quota hit between form start and submit, show error "Quota just filled" |
|
|||
|
|
| **File upload fails mid-submission** | ProjectFile record exists but no S3 object | Cleanup orphaned records via cron job; allow re-upload |
|
|||
|
|
| **User replaces file after deadline** | Check deadline on upload, not just submit | Each file upload checks `canSubmitToWindow()` |
|
|||
|
|
| **Team member email already registered** | Invite sent, user can claim | Email contains link: "Join team or login to existing account" |
|
|||
|
|
| **Applicant deletes draft** | Hard delete or soft delete? | Soft delete: set `deletedAt` field, hide from UI but keep for audit |
|
|||

|
| **Admin extends deadline globally** | Update Round.windowCloseAt | All applicants benefit; no GracePeriod records needed |
|
|||
|
|
| **Duplicate submissions (same email)** | One email = one project per competition | Upsert logic: update existing project instead of creating new |
|
|||
|
|
| **File version conflict** | User uploads same requirement twice | Create new ProjectFile, link to old via `replacedById` |
|
|||
|
|
| **Draft expires while user editing** | Auto-save fails with "Draft expired" | Extend expiry on each auto-save (rolling window) |

## 15. Integration Points
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Connects to Filtering Round (Next Round)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When intake round closes:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Create ProjectRoundState records
|
|||
|
|
2. Trigger filtering job
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### File System (MinIO)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- All uploads go to MinIO bucket: `mopc-submissions`
|
|||
|
|
- Object keys: `projects/{projectId}/submissions/{submissionWindowId}/{filename}_{timestamp}.{ext}`
|
|||
|
|
- Pre-signed URLs expire after 1 hour (uploads) or 24 hours (downloads)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Notification System
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Events emitted:**
|
|||
|
|
- `INTAKE_SUBMISSION_RECEIVED` — confirmation email + in-app notification
|
|||
|
|
- `INTAKE_DEADLINE_APPROACHING` — reminder emails (7d, 3d, 1d before)
|
|||
|
|
- `INTAKE_LATE_SUBMISSION` — flag for admin review
|
|||
|
|
- `INTAKE_QUOTA_REACHED` — notify admins
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Audit Logging
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
All actions logged in `DecisionAuditLog`:
|
|||
|
|
- `intake.draft_saved` — auto-save triggered
|
|||
|
|
- `intake.submission_finalized` — final submit
|
|||
|
|
- `intake.file_uploaded` — file added
|
|||
|
|
- `intake.file_replaced` — file updated
|
|||
|
|
- `intake.deadline_extended` — admin override

## Document Complete
|

|
|
|||
|
|
This specification defines the **INTAKE round type** for the redesigned MOPC architecture. Key takeaways:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Typed Config**: IntakeConfig replaces generic JSON with validated, documented fields
|
|||
|
|
2. **SubmissionWindow**: Decouples file requirements from round, enables multi-round submissions
|
|||
|
|
3. **Deadline Policies**: HARD, FLAG, GRACE with clear behavior differences
|
|||
|
|
4. **Draft System**: Auto-save + expiry for incomplete applications
|
|||
|
|
5. **Category Quotas**: Limit startups/concepts with overflow handling
|
|||
|
|
6. **Email Automation**: Confirmation + reminders built-in
|
|||
|
|
7. **Admin Controls**: Dashboard, deadline extensions, quota monitoring
