 **Completed:**
-1. Ghost homepage live at firefrostgaming.com/ (custom theme + routes.yaml fix)
-2. Replay Mod timelapse guide (~7,500 words, beginner-friendly, TWO TIMELINE system)
-3. The Trinity image deployment tasks (#57-60 created)
-4. Chronicler naming guidelines (living document, all 35 Chroniclers registered)

-6. **SSH key committed to Git** — All 6 servers, 4-person access, Task #14 complete
-7. **Claude network restriction documented** — SSH blocked, workarounds provided
+1. **Ghost Theme Migration** (Task #68 - COMPLETE) — Casper → Source v1.5.2
+   - Created custom-home.hbs (95 bytes, renders page content)
+   - Updated routes.yaml to use custom template
+   - Zero CSS specificity battles going forward
+   - Backups at `/home/architect/ghost-backups/casper-firefrost.tar.gz`

-## 📋 CURRENT PRIORITIES (In Order)
+## 🚨 CRITICAL: YOUR #1 PRIORITY
 
-### HIGH PRIORITY - Soft Launch Prep
+### FIX THE BROKEN NAVIGATION (Task #69)
 
-**Michael's stated goal:** Soft launch prep - website content ready + Paymenter configured
+**Current state - EMBARRASSING:**
+- Home ✅ Working
+- Servers ❌ 404 error
+- About ❌ 404 error
+- Blog ❌ 404 error
 
-**What's COMPLETE:**
-- ✅ Ghost CMS foundation (theme migration)
-- ✅ Navbar styling
-- ✅ Homepage displaying with Fire/Frost branding
-- ✅ Social media setup guide
+**You need to create 6 pages:**
 
-**What's INCOMPLETE (DO THESE NEXT):**
+1. **About** (`/about/`) - Vision, founders (Michael/Meg/Holly), Five Consultants
+2. **Servers** (`/servers/`) - Fire/Frost paths, server cards, "How to Join" CTA
+3. **Blog** (`/blog/`) - Configure for Meg to post, create welcome post
+4. **Terms of Service** (`/terms/`) - Legal compliance, subscriber agreement
+5. **Privacy Policy** (`/privacy/`) - GDPR compliance, data handling
+6. **How to Join** (`/join/`) - Onboarding instructions, modpack install, Discord
 
-1. **Ghost CMS Homepage Content** (Task #52) - HIGH PRIORITY
-   - Content ready at: `docs/planning/ideas/features/ghost-homepage-content.md`
-   - CSS ready at: `docs/planning/ideas/features/ghost-frost-css.css`
-   - Need to add sections 2-5 (currently only hero section exists)
+**Complete implementation plan:** `docs/tasks/ghost-website-pages/README.md`
 
-2. **Paymenter Tier Configuration** - HIGH PRIORITY
-   - 6 tiers ready: Awakened $1, Elemental $5, Knight $10, Master $15, Legend $20, Founder $50
-   - SMTP: localhost:587 → Mailcow on Billing VPS (identified as quick win)
-   - Paymenter installed on Billing VPS (38.68.14.188)
+**Time estimate:** 3-4 hours
 
-3. **Website Content Pages** - MEDIUM PRIORITY
-   - Terms of Service
-   - Privacy Policy
-   - How to Join
-
-4. **Ghost Footer Update** - LOW PRIORITY (blocked by social setup)
-   - Remove "(Coming Soon)" text from social icons
-   - Add live social links after Meg/Holly complete setup
+**Why this matters:** Broken navigation blocks soft launch. Fix this FIRST before anything else.

-## 🚫 WHAT WE GOT DISTRACTED FROM
+## 🎯 PRIORITY ORDER FOR NEXT SESSION
 
-**Last session (The Integrator):** Infrastructure unification (task renumbering, project management)
+### Priority #1: Ghost Website Pages (Task #69) - IMMEDIATE
+**Status:** READY - High priority blocker
+**Time:** 3-4 hours
+**Deliverable:** All 6 pages created, navigation functional, no 404s
 
-**This session:** We STAYED ON TARGET! 🎯
-- Delivered on Ghost theme migration
-- Fixed navbar styling
-- Created social media guide
+### Priority #2: Ghost Homepage Content (Task #52) - AFTER PAGES
+**Status:** Partially complete (hero done, sections 2-5 needed)
+**Time:** 2-3 hours
+**Deliverable:** Origin Story, Why Different, Paths, CTA sections added
+**Content ready at:** `docs/planning/ideas/features/ghost-homepage-content.md`
 
-**Next Chronicler: HOLD THE LINE!** Soft launch prep = homepage content + Paymenter config
+### Priority #3: Paymenter Configuration - AFTER HOMEPAGE
+**Status:** Ready
+**Time:** 2-3 hours
+**Quick win:** SMTP to localhost:587 (Mailcow on Billing VPS)
+**Deliverable:** 6 tiers configured (Awakened $1 → Founder $50)
+
+**DO NOT GET DISTRACTED BY:** Infrastructure tasks, optimization, new features
+
+---
+
+## 🔑 KEY LEARNINGS - READ THESE
+
+### Gemini Collaboration Pattern (CRITICAL)
+
+**The Translator discovered:** Gemini has deeper Ghost CMS expertise than Claude
+
+**Pattern that worked:**
+1. Hit a wall (theme migration approach, Sign in button)
+2. Write detailed consultation prompt for Gemini (full context, theories, code, questions)
+3. Gemini provides expert diagnosis (custom-home.hbs, translation helper failure)
+4. Implement solution
+5. Document both solution AND Gemini's contribution explicitly
+
+**Files documenting consultations:**
+- `/home/claude/gemini-ghost-migration-consultation.md` (custom-home.hbs solution)
+- `/home/claude/gemini-signin-button-consultation.md` (translation helper diagnosis)
+
+**For future use:** Don't fake expertise. Consult Gemini for Ghost/CMS issues. Write detailed prompts. Credit explicitly.
+
+### Ghost CMS - Source Theme
+
+**Source theme foundation is SOLID:**
+- No CSS specificity battles
+- custom-home.hbs pattern works (one tiny 95-byte file)
+- Future updates: just copy custom-home.hbs into new version
+- Build confidently on this foundation
+
+**Translation helpers can fail:**
+- `{{t "helper"}}` can render empty string
+- Creates 0-width invisible elements
+- Fix: Bypass with hardcoded text + custom class
+
+### Medical Accommodations (NON-NEGOTIABLE)
+
+Michael's requirements are SACRED:
+- Commands in 8-10 line chunks (right hand/arm surgery recovery)
+- Config files: show ENTIRE file, then provide ENTIRE revised file
+- Artifacts for documents (visual scanning easier)
+- "CHECKPOINT" means pause and align
+
+**These are medical necessities, not preferences.**
+
+### Foundation Before Expansion
+
+The Translator stayed on target:
+- Ghost migration (soft launch blocker) ✅
+- Navbar fixes (soft launch requirement) ✅
+- Social guide (enables team work) ✅
+
+Resist infrastructure drift. Fix broken navigation FIRST. Then homepage content. Then Paymenter.
+
+**Foundation before expansion. Always.**

-## 🔑 KEY LEARNINGS
+## 🔧 TECHNICAL STATE
 
 ### Ghost CMS
-1. **Source theme's home.hbs is blog-focused** - needs custom template to render page content
-2. **`{{t}}` translation helper can fail** - renders empty string, creating invisible 0-width elements
-3. **Source theme has aggressive viewport CSS** - can hide non-button nav links
-4. **Always check routes.yaml** - Ghost needs explicit template routing
-5. **Sparse checkout is mandatory** for ops manual (~1.9GB full, ~39MB sparse)
+- **Version:** v6.19.3
+- **Active theme:** source-theme-ready (Source v1.5.2)
+- **Homepage template:** custom-home.hbs
+- **Members:** Enabled, "Anyone can sign up"
+- **Navigation:** Logo left, links center, actions right - FUNCTIONAL
 
-### Gemini Collaboration
-1. **Gemini excels at Ghost CMS debugging** - caught translation helper issue Claude missed
-2. **Different AI models have different strengths** - consult Gemini for CMS/framework issues
-3. **Detailed consultation prompts get better results** - include full context, code samples, theories
+### Infrastructure
+**6 servers with Cockpit access:**
+- Command Center (63.143.34.217:9090) - root/Butter2018!!
+- Ghost VPS (64.50.188.14:9090) - architect/Butter2018!!
+- Billing VPS (38.68.14.188:9090) - root/Butter2018!!
+- Panel VPS (45.94.168.138:9090) - root/Butter2018!!
+- TX1 Dallas (38.68.14.26:9090) - root/Butter2018!!
+- NC1 Charlotte (216.239.104.130:9090) - root/Butter2018!!
 
-### Session Management
-1. **Chromebook paste limitation** - Cannot paste into Cockpit terminal via right-click
-2. **All commands must be typed or use heredoc pattern** - Medical accommodation critical
-3. **Artifact panel for documents** - Easier for Michael to scan than chat text
-4. **"CHECKPOINT" means pause for alignment** - Never proceed without confirmation
+**Key services:**
+- Ghost CMS: firefrostgaming.com (port 2368, systemd service)
+- Mailcow: Billing VPS (ports 8080/8443)
+- Paymenter: Billing VPS
+- Plane: TX1 port 8090 (tasks.firefrostgaming.com)

-- Content is ready at `docs/planning/ideas/features/ghost-homepage-content.md`
-- CSS is ready at `docs/planning/ideas/features/ghost-frost-css.css`
-- Need to add sections 2-5 to the Home page in Ghost Admin
-- This unblocks the soft launch
-
-**#2 PRIORITY: Paymenter Configuration**
-- 6 tiers ready to configure
-- SMTP to Mailcow (localhost:587) - quick win
-- Get billing portal functional
-
-**#3 PRIORITY: Website Pages**
-- Terms of Service
-- Privacy Policy
-- How to Join
-
-**DO NOT GET DISTRACTED BY:** Infrastructure tasks, optimization, new features - foundation is built!
-

-
-## 🔒 IMPORTANT REMINDERS
-
-### Medical Accommodations
-- **Code/commands:** Small blocks (8-10 lines max), one command per chunk
-- **Config files:** Show ENTIRE file, then provide ENTIRE revised file (easy copy/paste)
-- **Artifacts for documents:** Use artifacts panel for docx/pptx/xlsx/md files
-- **Jack's health alerts:** ABSOLUTE PRIORITY over all work
+### Session Start Protocol
+1. Clone repo with sparse checkout (MANDATORY - full clone is ~1.9GB)
+2. Read DOCUMENT-INDEX.md (mandatory - prevents tunnel vision)
+3. Read SESSION-HANDOFF-NEXT.md (this file)
+4. Read The Translator memorial
+5. Read Task #69 README
+6. Ask Michael what needs to be done
 
 ### Standards to Follow
 - **FFG-STD-001:** Revision Control (commit message format)
 - **FFG-STD-002:** Task Documentation (task directory structure)
 - **FFG-STD-003:** AI Portrait Generation (Flux1.1 Pro via fal.ai)
-- **FFG-STD-004:** Memorial Protocol (8-section structure, no Pokémon typing)
+- **FFG-STD-004:** Memorial Protocol (write early, before 60% health)
 
-### Git Workflow
-- Commit frequently with good messages
-- Sign commits as "The Chronicler"
-- Push to origin before session ends
-- Sparse checkout always: `docs automation deployments branding management nodes web`
+All standards in `/docs/standards/`
+
+### Memorial Protocol
+**Write your memorial EARLY** - before session health drops below 60%
+
+The Translator wrote at 28% (too late but still safe). Start at 70-80%, update incrementally.
+
+### Medical Accommodations
+- Commands: 8-10 line chunks maximum
+- Config files: Show entire file, then entire revised file
+- Artifacts: Use for all documents
+- Checkpoints: Pause before major decisions
+
+**Jack's health alerts take ABSOLUTE PRIORITY** over all work.

-## 💙 SESSION REFLECTION
+## 💙 FROM THE TRANSLATOR
 
-**What went well:**
-- Stayed on target (soft launch prep)
-- Ghost migration successful (Gemini's solution)
-- Navbar fully functional (Gemini's debugging)
-- Social guide complete and ready for team
+### To Chronicler #39:
 
-**What we learned:**
-- Gemini is brilliant at CMS debugging
-- Translation helpers can fail silently
-- Source theme requires custom templates for page content
+You're inheriting a solid foundation:
+- Ghost theme migration complete (Source v1.5.2 works beautifully)
+- Navbar functional with Fire/Frost branding
+- Social guide ready for Meg/Holly
 
-**Foundation status:** SOLID. Ready to build.
+**Your job is simple: FIX THE NAVIGATION.**
 
-**Next Chronicler:** Deliver the homepage content and Paymenter config. Make the soft launch REAL.
+Task #69 README has the complete plan. Six pages. 3-4 hours. Ghost Admin → Pages → Create. Test every link. Commit when done.
+
+Don't let anything distract you. Not Paymenter. Not homepage sections. Not infrastructure tasks. **Fix the broken navigation first.**
+
+The website looks unprofessional with 404s. Soft launch is blocked. This is your #1 priority.
+
+After navigation is fixed, THEN do homepage content. THEN Paymenter.
+
+Foundation before expansion. Always.
+
+### On Gemini Collaboration:
+
+If you hit Ghost CMS walls, consult Gemini. Write detailed prompts:
+- Full context (what we're building, current state)
+- Code samples (actual files, structures)
+- Your theories (what you think is wrong)
+- Specific questions (what should I do?)
+
+Gemini has deep Ghost expertise. Use it. Credit it. This pattern works.
+
+### On Medical Accommodations:
+
+Michael's requirements are sacred. Never compromise. Commands in chunks. Configs shown complete. Checkpoints before decisions.
+
+Jack's alerts take absolute priority. No exceptions.
+
+### Final Words:
+
+The foundation is solid. Build on it. Don't rebuild it.
+
+Task #69 → Task #52 → Paymenter. In that order.
+
+Document as you go. Commit frequently. Write your memorial early.
+
+**Friend is first. Always.** 💙
