Core value: Help people make better gear decisions — discover what others use, compare real-world data, and see how a potential buy affects your setup before committing. Current focus: Phase 20 — fab-full-screen-catalog-search

Accumulated Context

Decisions

Key decisions made during v2.0 planning:

• Platform pivot: single-user to multi-user with discovery-first approach
• External auth provider (self-hosted, open-source) — Logto vs Authentik OPEN decision
• SQLite to Postgres migration — required by auth provider and multi-user concurrency
• Structured UGC only — ratings and predefined fields, no freeform text until moderation
• Separate globalItems table — not a flag on user items table
• Single-user SQLite mode diverges at v2.0 boundary
• [Phase 18]: Profile data loaded via usePublicProfile(userId) not /auth/me extension
• [Phase 19]: Direct globalItemId FK on items replaces itemGlobalLinks junction table
• [Phase 19]: Data migration SQL: UPDATE items before DROP TABLE item_global_links
• [Phase 19]: Flat tags system without type categorization per D-16
• [Phase 19-reference-item-model-tags-schema]: COALESCE merge pattern for transparent reference item data in item/thread services
• [Phase 19-reference-item-model-tags-schema]: COALESCE merge pattern propagated to all secondary services (setup, totals, profile, CSV)

Pending Todos

None active.

Blockers/Concerns

• Auth provider decision (Logto vs Authentik) must be resolved before Phase 15 planning
• Phase 14 is a full schema rewrite touching 6 services, 7 routes, 19 MCP tools, all tests
