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!
