…P participants checkInParticipant ran as the event owner but firestore rules only allowed the participant themselves to update their own doc (and only status/buddyPreference/updatedAt keys). The denied write failed the whole transaction so free-RSVP check-in always errored. - Participants update rule now also permits the event owner (isEventOwner) to write checkInStatus/checkedInAt/checkedInBy - Added rules tests: owner check-in allowed, non-owner denied - Verified: 48/52 pass; same 4 pre-existing failures as main baseline

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe participant update rule now supports restricted attendee attendance updates and event-owner check-in updates. Firestore tests verify owner access and deny unrelated student access. ChangesParticipant Check-In Authorization
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This change allows event owners to write check-in audit fields without requiring checkedInBy to identify the authenticated owner, which could create forged attribution in check-in records. The rule should be tightened before merge. Possibly related PRs

Bind checkedInBy to the authenticated event owner.
At Line 346, the rule permits an event owner to set checkedInBy to any user ID. This permits forged check-in audit records. Require checkedInBy to equal request.auth.uid. Add a rejected-rules test for an owner that supplies a different actor ID.

Problem
checkInParticipant()(checkInService.js) runs as the organizer and writescheckInStatus/checkedInAt/checkedInByto the participant doc, butfirestore.rulesonly allow a participant to update their own doc with keysstatus/buddyPreference/updatedAt. Since Firestore transactions are atomic, this single denied write fails the whole transaction → free-RSVP check-in always fails.Fix
Extended the
participants/{participantId}allow updaterule so the event owner (isEventOwner) may write the three check-in keys:checkInswrites were already permitted for owners; only the participant-doc write was blocked.Verification
firebase emulators:exec --only firestore "jest tests/firestore.rules.test.ts"→ 48/52 pass; the 4 remaining failures are pre-existing on main (confirmed by baseline run), same behaviour before/afterFixes #753
