Fix double render in Slack::PuzzlesController when notification fails#68
Conversation
When send_message rescued a Slack::Web::Api::Errors::SlackError and called head :unprocessable_entity, execution returned to create which then called render json:, raising AbstractController::DoubleRenderError. Added return if performed? to halt after send_message when it has already rendered.

…entry Calling head :unprocessable_entity inside send_message was a rendering side effect that leaked into callers and wrongly told Slack the request failed even when the puzzle was saved. Now logs the error, captures it in Sentry for full context, and lets create always render 200 on success.

Replaces #66, #67, #68, #70 with a single cohesive fix: - Merge check_session_expiry + check_user_token into one authenticate! callback, eliminating the double-render risk by design - SessionsController and Slack::ApplicationController now each skip a single authenticate! instead of managing multiple callbacks - Rename valid_slack_request? to verify_slack_request! and make it halt with head :unauthorized when signature verification fails - Replace head :unprocessable_entity in send_message with logging and Sentry.capture_exception so notification failures never affect the HTTP response back to Slack

Superseded by #71 which addresses this and three other related bugs with a more robust design. |

Problem
send_messageinSlack::ApplicationControllercalledhead :unprocessable_entitywhen rescuing aSlack::Web::Api::Errors::SlackError. This had two issues:Slack::PuzzlesController#create, which then calledrender json:, raisingAbstractController::DoubleRenderError. Same class of bug as Fix double render in ApplicationController auth callbacks #66.Fix
send_messagenow logs the error, captures it in Sentry for full context, and returns without rendering. This means:createalways responds 200 to Slack when a puzzle is saved successfullyreturn if performed?is no longer neededTests
renders ok when puzzle fails validation— action returns 200 when puzzle doesn't save (no Slack call made)renders ok even when Slack notification fails after puzzle is saved— action returns 200 even whensend_messagefails, confirming notification failure doesn't affect the Slack response
