Technical Notes

RLS Patterns Used

TO public for anonymous contributor access
Admin policies check role = 'admin' in profiles
book_prompts public read for contributor form

Payment-First Architecture

User fills book details + selects tier
Stripe Checkout with metadata (honoree, occasion, title, tier, email)
Webhook extracts metadata, creates/finds user, creates book
Magic link sent to owner
Book starts in collecting status

Session complete. Waiting on Stripe setup to proceed with testing.
