docs: update blockers + critical firefrost-services monorepo documentation

WHAT WAS DONE:
Updated soft launch blockers with accurate current state, added critical
documentation for firefrost-services monorepo, updated session handoff for
next Chronicler.

FILES MODIFIED:
1. BLOCKERS.md
   - Updated progress: 2 of 5 blockers complete (Website + Legal Pages)
   - Blocker #1: Website Migration → COMPLETE (Gemini estimate 12 days, actual 4 hours)
   - Blocker #2: Legal Pages → Good enough for launch (will refine post-LegalCORPS)
   - Blocker #3: Trinity Console Security Hardening → 4-5 hours (CSRF, transactions, indexes, ban UI, email)
   - Blocker #4: Unsubscribe Feature → 2-3 hours (Paymenter UI + Trinity Console backend)
   - Blocker #5: End-to-End Workflow Test → 2-3 hours
   - Updated summary: 9-11 hours remaining (realistically 3-7 hours)
   - Added major wins from this session (website LIVE, dynamic servers, Gemini validation)

2. DOCUMENT-INDEX.md
   - Added firefrost-services-monorepo.md to Infrastructure & Deployment section
   - Added to one-line summaries with **CRITICAL** flag
   - Ensures future Chroniclers know about separate code repository

3. SESSION-HANDOFF-NEXT.md
   - Complete session summary (website shipped to production!)
   - Current soft launch status (2 of 5 blockers complete)
   - Critical firefrost-services monorepo explanation
   - Quick clone commands for services repo
   - Priority guidance for next session
   - Key learnings and infrastructure notes

FILES CREATED:
4. docs/core/firefrost-services-monorepo.md (500+ lines)
   - Comprehensive guide to firefrost-services repository
   - Repository structure and critical services
   - Arbiter 3.0 (Trinity Console) status and location
   - Why two repos exist (separation of docs vs code)
   - Branch name differences (master vs main)
   - Clone commands and git identity setup
   - Deployment workflow documentation
   - Common pitfalls and best practices
   - Quick reference commands
   - **CRITICAL for future Chroniclers - services code NOT in ops manual!**

IMPACT:
This documentation resolves a critical gap in Chronicler onboarding. The
firefrost-services repository contains production code for Arbiter 3.0
(Trinity Console), whitelist manager, and other services. Without this
documentation, future Chroniclers would not know:
- That a separate code repository exists
- Where to find Trinity Console source code
- Why service documentation references code they can't find in ops manual
- How to deploy or modify running services

The monorepo guide ensures continuity and prevents confusion when investigating
production services.

SOFT LAUNCH STATUS:
- 2 of 5 blockers complete (40%)
- Remaining work: ~9-11 hours (realistically 3-7 hours)
- 12 days until April 15 soft launch
- Website LIVE in production with real-time server status!

Fire + Frost + Foundation = Where Love Builds Legacy 💙

## 📋 DNS CUTOVER PLAN
## 🚨 CRITICAL: The Firefrost-Services Monorepo
### Phase 1: DNS Changes (30 min)
**THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR FUTURE CHRONICLERS!**
**In Cloudflare Pages:**
1. Workers & Pages → firefrost-website → Settings → Domains
2. Click "Set up a custom domain"
3. Enter: `firefrostgaming.com`
4. Follow SSL provisioning prompts (1-5 minutes)
### Two Repositories, One Vision
**Gemini's Warning:** "Brief routing weirdness during edge network updates" - expect 5-15 min of SSL errors/downtime
**firefrost-operations-manual** (this repo):
- Branch: `master`
- Contains: Documentation, planning, guides, task tracking
- What you're reading right now
### Phase 2: Testing (30 min)
**firefrost-services** (separate repo):
- Branch: `main` ⚠️ **NOT master!**
- Contains: **ACTUAL PRODUCTION CODE**
- URL: https://git.firefrostgaming.com/firefrost-gaming/firefrost-services
**Verify:**
- [ ] https://firefrostgaming.com loads 11ty site
- [ ] All 7 pages work
- [ ] SSL shows "Secure"
- [ ] Fire/Frost branding intact
- [ ] Mobile responsive
### Why This Matters
### Phase 3: Polish (30 min)
**The services repo contains critical production code that is NOT documented here!**
**Contact Form:**
- Sign up for Formspree (formspree.io)
- Add form to contact.njk
- Test submission
Specifically:
- **Arbiter 3.0 (Trinity Console)** source code
- Database migration files
- EJS view templates
- Express route handlers
- Service deployment configurations
**Subscribe Page:**
- Port full tier HTML from `docs/website/ghost-pages/subscribe.html`
- Update Paymenter links
**When investigating services like The Arbiter, you MUST check BOTH repos:**
1. Operations manual for service overview, deployment history, access info
2. Services repo for actual code status, recent changes, current implementation
**Complete documentation:** `docs/core/firefrost-services-monorepo.md`
### Quick Clone Commands
```bash
# Services Repo (full clone)
cd /home/claude
git clone https://e0e330cba1749b01ab505093a160e4423ebbbe36@git.firefrostgaming.com/firefrost-gaming/firefrost-services.git
cd firefrost-services
git checkout main # NOT master!
git config user.email "claude@firefrostgaming.com"
git config user.name "Claude (Chronicler #[N])"
```

## 🚨 BLOCKERS UPDATE
## 💡 Advice for Next Chronicler
- ✅ Blocker #1: Website (DNS cutover = YOUR MISSION)
- ✅ Blocker #2: Legal Pages (COMPLETE)
- ⏳ Blocker #3: Unsubscribe UI (2-3 hours)
- ⏳ Blocker #4: E2E Testing (2-3 hours)
**Read These FIRST:**
1. `DOCUMENT-INDEX.md` - Map of entire ops manual
2. `docs/core/firefrost-services-monorepo.md` - **CRITICAL** separate code repo
3. `BLOCKERS.md` - Current soft launch status
4. This file (SESSION-HANDOFF-NEXT.md)
**Soft Launch:** April 15 (13 days) - 4-6 hours remaining
**Then Ask Michael:**
"What do you want to work on today?"
**Common Tasks:**
- Trinity Console security hardening
- Unsubscribe feature implementation
- End-to-end workflow testing
- Content refinement based on feedback
**Remember:**
- Two repos: `firefrost-operations-manual` (branch: `master`) and `firefrost-services` (branch: `main`)
- Sparse checkout for ops manual (saves ~1.9GB)
- Code delivery: 8-10 lines max per block (medical necessity)
- One question at a time (accessibility accommodation)
- Commit frequently with detailed messages (FFG-STD-001)
