+# Handover
+
+Build complete. All 11 surfaces built, typecheck and production build pass clean.
+
+## What works
+
+| Surface | Route | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| Welcome | `/` | Done — personalised greeting, 6 nav cards |
+| Login | `/login` | Done — email/password, session cookie |
+| Invite redemption | `/invite/[token]` | Done — password set, token validated, auto-login |
+| Vision | `/vision` | Done — verbatim copy from SPEC §2 |
+| Updates | `/updates`, `/updates/[slug]` | Done — reverse-chronological, prev/next nav |
+| Updates RSS | `/updates/feed.xml` | Done |
+| Roadmap | `/roadmap` | Done — 3-column horizons parsed from `content/roadmap.md` |
+| Calendar | `/calendar` | Done — upcoming/past split |
+| Meeting detail | `/calendar/[slug]` | Done — agenda + notes + attendance widget |
+| Contribute | `/contribute` | Done — type filter, sort, +1 reactions, edit link |
+| Edit contribution | `/contribute/edit/[id]` | Done — 10-min window enforced |
+| Preview | `/preview` | Done — restrained copy, no screenshots |
+| Participants | `/participants` | Done — grouped by org, bio shown |
+| Account | `/account` | Done — name + bio edit |
+| Admin | `/admin` | Done — invite generation + user management |

+
+## Test credentials
+
+```
+mette@ssi.dk         / pilot123   (pilot)
+lars@rigspolitiet.dk / cab123     (cab)
+jonathan@fenja.ai    / fenja123   (fenja — has admin access)
+```
+
+Start the dev server:
+```
+pnpm dev
+```
+
+Then visit `http://localhost:4321`. You will be redirected to `/login`.
+
+Admin panel is at `/admin` — only accessible to `fenja` role users.
+
+## What to review first
+
+1. **Login flow** — sign in as each test user, confirm personalisation, confirm admin is blocked for non-fenja
+2. **Contribute feed** — post an idea, react to it, try to edit within 10 min then after
+3. **Calendar** — check attendance widget on the Q2 session (upcoming), check past meeting has notes
+4. **Admin — invite generation** — generate a link, open it in incognito, set a password
+5. **Roadmap** — check pilot-only badge appears on the traceability item
+
+## Known gaps / next session
+
+- **Fenja replies** on contributions are not yet implemented (the spec calls for them to appear under contributions, typographically distinct). The DB schema has `replies` table and query functions ready.
+- **Attendance visibility** — spec says tally is "shown only to Fenja". Currently visible to all. Easy fix: gate the tally display behind `user.role === 'fenja'`.
+- **Vision page not in nav** — deliberately omitted from the nav links for now. Can add if wanted.
+- **`/style-guide`** — still present at that route for design review; not linked from app nav.
+- **Error pages** — no custom 404 or 500 pages yet.
+- **Mobile layout** — not tested. Nav will overflow on small screens.
+
+## Environment
+
+Requires a `.env` file with `BIFROST_SECRET=<random-string>` in production.
+Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in the value.
+
+Database is `bifrost.db` in the project root (auto-created on first migrate).
