- API: require auth on thread+reply POST (401 if !user); lazy-create
forum_user_profile via service-role; author_name = display_name
- UI: surface API errors (kill silent catch); auto-redirect to login
on 401; gate new-thread + reply forms with "Sign in to post" CTA
- /forum/login + /forum/register: forum-themed Supabase Auth pages
with ?next= redirect support
- /forum/profile/edit + /api/forum/profile/me: edit own forum profile
(username, display_name, bio, role, company, location, avatar)
- Header: logout button + sign-in/join links when not authed
- forum/user/[username]: show Edit Profile button when viewing own
Fixes posting bug: RLS rejected anon inserts with cryptic message
that the UI silently swallowed; now blocked with friendly 401 + redirect.

The schema has upvotes / downvotes / vote_score; API + UI were
querying/reading upvote_count / downvote_count (non-existent
columns). Threads existed in the DB but didn't render.
- /api/forum/threads route.ts:
- 'top-voted' sort: order by vote_score (was upvote_count)
- 'newest' default sort: forum_threads has no 'status' column,
so order pinned-first via is_pinned, then last_reply_at desc
- UI ForumThread interface + components: rename
upvote_count → upvotes, add downvotes + vote_score so the
vote display in the thread cards and the admin moderation
list pulls live data from the existing columns.
After this lands and the deploy completes, the 50 seeded
threads + the 9 ai-seeded new threads + 253 backfilled replies
already in the DB will all render at /forum.
