feat: redesign admin panel to match Liquid Editorial Bento design system

- Login page: stone/dark palette, liquid ambient blobs, dk0.dev branding,
  gradient accent bar, large rounded card, site-matching button/input styles
- Lockout/loading states: dark mode support, emerald spinner, red gradient bar
- Dashboard navbar: gradient accent bar, monospace branding, pill-style tab buttons
  with dark/light active state, improved mobile menu grid layout
- Stats cards: liquid-* gradient backgrounds per metric (emerald, sky, purple,
  amber, pink, teal) with matching icon colors and rounded-3xl corners
- Section headings: uppercase tracking-tighter font-black with emerald accent dot
- Activity/settings cards: white/dark-stone background, rounded-3xl, dark mode
- Removed framer-motion from manage/page.tsx; replaced admin-glass* CSS classes
  with proper Tailwind throughout

+
+## Stack you own
+- **Next.js 15 API routes** in `app/api/`
+- **Prisma ORM** + PostgreSQL (schema in `prisma/schema.prisma`)
+- **Directus GraphQL** via `lib/directus.ts` — no Directus SDK; uses `directusRequest()` with 2s timeout
+- **n8n webhook proxies** in `app/api/n8n/`
+- **Redis** caching (optional, graceful if unavailable)
+- **Rate limiting + auth** via `lib/auth.ts`
+
+## File ownership
+`app/api/`, `lib/`, `prisma/`, `scripts/`
+
+## API route conventions (always required)
+```typescript
+export const runtime = 'nodejs'
+export const dynamic = 'force-dynamic'
+```
+Every route must include a `source` field in the response: `"directus"` | `"fallback"` | `"error"`
+
+## Data source fallback chain (must follow)
+1. Directus CMS (if `DIRECTUS_STATIC_TOKEN` set) → 2. PostgreSQL → 3. `messages/*.json` → 4. Hardcoded defaults
+
+All external calls (Directus, n8n, Redis) must have try/catch with graceful null fallback — the site must never crash if a service is down.
+
+## When implementing a feature
+1. Read `lib/directus.ts` to check for existing GraphQL query patterns
+2. Add GraphQL query + TypeScript types to `lib/directus.ts` for new Directus collections
+3. All POST/PUT endpoints need input validation
+4. n8n proxies need rate limiting and 10s timeout
+5. Error logging: `if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "development") console.error(...)`
+6. Run `npm run build` to verify TypeScript compiles without errors
+7. After schema changes, run `npm run db:generate`
+
+## Directus collections
+`tech_stack_categories`, `tech_stack_items`, `hobbies`, `content_pages`, `projects`, `book_reviews`
+Locale mapping: `en` → `en-US`, `de` → `de-DE`

+---
+
+You are a senior code reviewer for Dennis Konkol's portfolio (dk0.dev). You are read-only — you report issues but do not fix them.
+
+## When invoked
+1. Run `git diff HEAD` to see all recent changes
+2. For each modified file, read it fully before commenting
+3. Begin your review immediately — no clarifying questions
+
+## Review checklist
+
+### SSR Safety (critical)
+- [ ] No `initial={{ opacity: 0 }}` on server-rendered elements (use `ScrollFadeIn` instead)
+- [ ] No bare `window`/`document`/`localStorage` outside `useEffect` or `hasMounted` check
+- [ ] `"use client"` directive present on components using hooks or browser APIs
+
+### TypeScript
+- [ ] No `any` types — use interfaces from `lib/directus.ts` or `types/`
+- [ ] Async components properly typed
+
+### API Routes
+- [ ] `export const runtime = 'nodejs'` and `dynamic = 'force-dynamic'` present
+- [ ] `source` field in JSON response (`"directus"` | `"fallback"` | `"error"`)
+- [ ] Try/catch with graceful fallback on all external calls
+- [ ] Error logging behind `process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"` guard
+
+### Design System
+- [ ] Only `liquid-*` color tokens used, no hardcoded colors
+- [ ] Body text uses `text-stone-600 dark:text-stone-400` (not `text-stone-400` alone)
+- [ ] New async components have a Skeleton loading state
+
+### i18n
+- [ ] New user-facing strings added to both `messages/en.json` AND `messages/de.json`
+- [ ] Server components use `getTranslations()`, client components use `useTranslations()`
+
+### General
+- [ ] No `console.error` outside dev guard
+- [ ] No emojis in code
+- [ ] Commit messages follow Conventional Commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`)
+
+## Output format
+Group findings by severity:
+- **Critical** — must fix before merge (SSR invisibility, security, crashes)
+- **Warning** — should fix (TypeScript issues, missing fallbacks)
+- **Suggestion** — nice to have
+
+Include file path, line number, and concrete fix example for each issue.

+You are an expert debugger for Dennis Konkol's portfolio (dk0.dev). You specialize in root cause analysis — fix the cause, not the symptom.
+
+## Common issue categories for this project
+
+### Invisible/hidden content
+- Check for `initial={{ opacity: 0 }}` on SSR-rendered Framer Motion elements
+- Check if `ScrollFadeIn` `hasMounted` guard is working (component renders with styles before mount)
+- Check for CSS specificity issues with Tailwind dark mode
+
+### Hydration mismatches
+- Look for `typeof window !== "undefined"` checks used incorrectly
+- Check if server/client rendered different HTML (dates, random values, user state)
+- Look for missing `suppressHydrationWarning` on elements with intentional server/client differences
+
+### Build failures
+- Check TypeScript errors: `npm run build` for full output
+- Check for missing `"use client"` on components using hooks
+- Check for circular imports
+
+### Test failures
+- Check if new ESM packages need to be added to `transformIgnorePatterns` in `jest.config.ts`
+- Verify mocks in `jest.setup.ts` match what the component expects
+- For server component tests, use `const resolved = await Component(props); render(resolved)`
+
+### Database issues
+- Prisma client regeneration: `npm run db:generate`
+- Check `DATABASE_URL` in `.env.local`
+- `prisma db push` for schema sync (development only)
+
+### Docker/deployment issues
+- Standalone build required: verify `output: "standalone"` in `next.config.ts`
+- Check `scripts/start-with-migrate.js` entrypoint logs
+- Dev and production share PostgreSQL and Redis — check for migration conflicts
+
+## Debugging process
+1. Read the full error including stack trace
+2. Run `git log --oneline -5` and `git diff HEAD~1` to check recent changes
+3. Form a hypothesis before touching any code
+4. Make the minimal fix that addresses the root cause
+5. Verify: `npm run build && npm run test`
+6. Explain: root cause, fix applied, prevention strategy

+
+Add a new CMS-managed section called "$ARGUMENTS" to the portfolio.
+
+Follow the exact 6-step pattern from CLAUDE.md:
+
+**Step 1 — lib/directus.ts**
+Read `lib/directus.ts` first, then add:
+- TypeScript interface for the new collection
+- `directusRequest()` GraphQL query for the collection (with translation support if needed)
+- Export the fetch function
+
+**Step 2 — API Route**
+Create `app/api/$ARGUMENTS/route.ts`:
+- `export const runtime = 'nodejs'`
+- `export const dynamic = 'force-dynamic'`
+- Try Directus first, fallback to hardcoded defaults
+- Include `source: "directus" | "fallback" | "error"` in response
+- Error logging behind `process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"` guard
+
+**Step 3 — Component**
+Create `app/components/$ARGUMENTS.tsx`:
+- `"use client"` directive
+- Skeleton loading state for the async data
+- Tailwind liquid-* tokens for styling (cards: `bg-gradient-to-br from-liquid-*/15 via-liquid-*/10 to-liquid-*/15 backdrop-blur-sm border-2 rounded-xl`)
+- Headline uppercase with tracking-tighter and emerald accent dot
+
+**Step 4 — i18n**
+Add translation keys to both:
+- `messages/en.json`
+- `messages/de.json`
+
+**Step 5 — Client Wrapper**
+Add `${ARGUMENTS}Client` to `app/components/ClientWrappers.tsx`:
+- Wrap in scoped `NextIntlClientProvider` with only the needed translation namespace
+
+**Step 6 — Homepage Integration**
+Add to `app/_ui/HomePageServer.tsx`:
+- Fetch translations in the existing `Promise.all`
+- Render wrapped in `<ScrollFadeIn>`
+
+After implementation:
+- Run `npm run lint` — must be 0 errors
+- Run `npm run build` — must compile successfully
+- Report what was created and any manual steps remaining (e.g., creating the Directus collection)

+# Portfolio Project Instructions
+
+Dennis Konkol's portfolio (dk0.dev) — Next.js 15, Directus CMS, n8n automation, "Liquid Editorial Bento" design system.
+
+## Build, Test, and Lint
+
+```bash
+npm run dev:next           # Plain Next.js dev server (no Docker)
+npm run build              # Production build (standalone mode)
+npm run lint               # ESLint (0 errors required, warnings OK)
+npm run lint:fix           # Auto-fix lint issues
+npm run test               # All Jest unit tests
+npx jest path/to/test.tsx  # Run a single test file
+npm run test:watch         # Watch mode
+npm run test:e2e           # Playwright E2E tests
+npm run db:generate        # Regenerate Prisma client after schema changes
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Server/Client Component Split
+
+The homepage uses a **server component orchestrator** pattern:
+
+- `app/_ui/HomePageServer.tsx` — async server component, fetches all translations in parallel via `Promise.all`, renders Hero directly, wraps client sections in `ScrollFadeIn`
+- `app/components/Hero.tsx` — **server component** (no `"use client"`), uses `getTranslations()` from `next-intl/server`
+- `app/components/ClientWrappers.tsx` — exports `AboutClient`, `ProjectsClient`, `ContactClient`, `FooterClient`, each wrapping their component in a scoped `NextIntlClientProvider` with only the needed translation keys
+- `app/components/ClientProviders.tsx` — root client wrapper, defers Three.js/WebGL via `requestIdleCallback` (5s timeout) to avoid blocking LCP
+
+### SSR Animation Safety
+
+**Never use Framer Motion's `initial={{ opacity: 0 }}` on SSR-rendered elements** — it bakes `style="opacity:0"` into HTML, making content invisible if hydration fails.
+
+Use `ScrollFadeIn` component instead (`app/components/ScrollFadeIn.tsx`): renders no inline style during SSR (content visible by default), applies opacity+transform only after `hasMounted` check, animates via IntersectionObserver + CSS transitions.
+
+Framer Motion `AnimatePresence` is fine for modals/overlays that only render after user interaction.
+
+### Data Source Fallback Chain
+
+Every data fetch degrades gracefully — the site never crashes:
+
+1. **Directus CMS** → 2. **PostgreSQL** → 3. **JSON files** (`messages/*.json`) → 4. **Hardcoded defaults** → 5. **i18n key itself**
+
+### CMS Integration (Directus)
+
+- GraphQL via `lib/directus.ts` — no Directus SDK, uses `directusRequest()` with 2s timeout
+- Returns `null` on failure (never throws)
+- Locale mapping: `en` → `en-US`, `de` → `de-DE`
+- API routes must export `runtime = 'nodejs'`, `dynamic = 'force-dynamic'`, and return `source` field (`directus|fallback|error`)
+
+### n8n Integration
+
+- Webhook proxies in `app/api/n8n/` (status, chat, hardcover, generate-image)
+- Auth: `N8N_SECRET_TOKEN` and/or `N8N_API_KEY` headers
+- All endpoints have rate limiting and 10s timeout
+- Hardcover reading data cached 5 minutes
+
+## Key Conventions
+
+### i18n
+
+- Locales: `en`, `de` — defined in `middleware.ts`, must match `app/[locale]/layout.tsx`
+- Client components: `useTranslations("key.path")` from `next-intl`
+- Server components: `getTranslations("key.path")` from `next-intl/server`
+- Always add keys to both `messages/en.json` and `messages/de.json`
+
+### Design System
+
+- Custom Tailwind colors: `liquid-sky`, `liquid-mint`, `liquid-lavender`, `liquid-pink`, `liquid-rose`, `liquid-peach`, `liquid-coral`, `liquid-teal`, `liquid-lime`
+- Cards: `bg-gradient-to-br from-liquid-*/15 via-liquid-*/10 to-liquid-*/15` with `backdrop-blur-sm`, `border-2`, `rounded-xl`
+- Typography: Headlines uppercase, `tracking-tighter`, accent dot at end (`<span className="text-emerald-600">.</span>`)
+- Layout: Bento Grid, no floating overlays
+- Accessibility: Use `text-stone-600 dark:text-stone-400` (not `text-stone-400`) for body text — contrast ratio must be ≥4.5:1
+
+### Code Style
+
+- TypeScript: no `any` — use interfaces from `lib/directus.ts` or `types/`
+- Error logging: `console.error` only when `process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"`
+- File naming: PascalCase components (`About.tsx`), kebab-case API routes (`book-reviews/`), kebab-case lib utils
+- Commit messages: Conventional Commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`)
+- Every async component needs a Skeleton loading state
+
+### Testing
+
+- Jest with JSDOM; mocks for `window.matchMedia` and `IntersectionObserver` in `jest.setup.ts`
+- ESM modules transformed via `transformIgnorePatterns` (react-markdown, remark-*, etc.)
+- Server component tests: `const resolved = await Component({ props }); render(resolved)`
+- Test mocks for `next/image`: use `eslint-disable-next-line @next/next/no-img-element` on the `<img>` tag
+
+### Docker & Deployment
+
+- `output: "standalone"` in `next.config.ts`
+- Entrypoint: `scripts/start-with-migrate.js` — waits for DB, runs migrations (non-fatal on failure), starts server
+- CI/CD: `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` — `test-build` job (all branches), `deploy-dev` (dev only), `deploy-production` (production only)
+- Branches: `dev` → testing.dk0.dev, `production` → dk0.dev
+- Dev and production share the same PostgreSQL and Redis instances
+
+## Common Tasks
+
+### Adding a CMS-managed section
+
+1. Define GraphQL query + types in `lib/directus.ts`
+2. Create API route in `app/api/<name>/route.ts` with `runtime='nodejs'` and `dynamic='force-dynamic'`
+3. Create component in `app/components/<Name>.tsx` with Skeleton loading state
+4. Add i18n keys to both `messages/en.json` and `messages/de.json`
+5. Create a `<Name>Client` wrapper in `ClientWrappers.tsx` with scoped `NextIntlClientProvider`
+6. Add to `HomePageServer.tsx` wrapped in `ScrollFadeIn`

+### Server/Client Component Split
 
-## Architecture Patterns
+The homepage uses a **server component orchestrator** pattern:
 
-### Data Source Hierarchy (Fallback Chain)
-1. Directus CMS (if configured via `DIRECTUS_STATIC_TOKEN`)
-2. PostgreSQL (for projects, analytics)
-3. JSON files (`messages/*.json`)
-4. Hardcoded defaults
-5. Display key itself as last resort
+- `app/_ui/HomePageServer.tsx` — async server component, fetches all translations in parallel via `Promise.all`, renders Hero directly, wraps below-fold sections in `ScrollFadeIn`
+- `app/components/Hero.tsx` — **server component** (no `"use client"`), uses `getTranslations()` from `next-intl/server`
+- `app/components/ClientWrappers.tsx` — exports `AboutClient`, `ProjectsClient`, `ContactClient`, `FooterClient`; each wraps its component in a scoped `NextIntlClientProvider` with only the needed translation namespace
+- `app/components/ClientProviders.tsx` — root client wrapper, defers Three.js/WebGL via `requestIdleCallback` (5s timeout) to avoid blocking LCP
 
-All external data sources fail gracefully - the site never crashes if Directus, PostgreSQL, n8n, or Redis are unavailable.
+### SSR Animation Safety
+
+**Never use Framer Motion's `initial={{ opacity: 0 }}` on SSR-rendered elements** — it bakes `style="opacity:0"` into HTML, making content invisible if JS hydration fails or is slow.
+
+Use `ScrollFadeIn` (`app/components/ScrollFadeIn.tsx`) instead: renders no inline style during SSR, applies opacity+transform only after `hasMounted` check via IntersectionObserver + CSS transitions.
+
+`AnimatePresence` is fine for modals/overlays that only render after user interaction.
+
+### Data Source Fallback Chain
+
+Every data fetch degrades gracefully — the site never crashes:
+
+1. **Directus CMS** (if `DIRECTUS_STATIC_TOKEN` configured) → 2. **PostgreSQL** → 3. **JSON files** (`messages/*.json`) → 4. **Hardcoded defaults** → 5. **i18n key itself**
 
 ### CMS Integration (Directus)
-- REST/GraphQL calls via `lib/directus.ts` (no Directus SDK)
+
+- GraphQL via `lib/directus.ts` — no Directus SDK, uses `directusRequest()` with 2s timeout
+- Returns `null` on failure, never throws
 - Collections: `tech_stack_categories`, `tech_stack_items`, `hobbies`, `content_pages`, `projects`, `book_reviews`
-- Translations use Directus native translation system (M2O to `languages`)
-- Locale mapping: `en` -> `en-US`, `de` -> `de-DE`
+- Translations use Directus native M2O system; locale mapping: `en` → `en-US`, `de` → `de-DE`
+- API routes must export `runtime = 'nodejs'`, `dynamic = 'force-dynamic'`, and include a `source` field in the response (`"directus"` | `"fallback"` | `"error"`)
 
 ### n8n Integration
-- Webhook base URL: `N8N_WEBHOOK_URL` env var
-- Auth via `N8N_SECRET_TOKEN` and/or `N8N_API_KEY` headers
-- All n8n endpoints have rate limiting and timeout protection (10s)
-- Hardcover data cached for 5 minutes
 
-### Component Patterns
-- Client components with `"use client"` for interactive/data-fetching parts
-- `useEffect` for data loading on mount
-- `useTranslations` from next-intl for i18n
-- Framer Motion `variants` pattern with `staggerContainer` + `fadeInUp`
-- Gradient cards with `liquid-*` color tokens and `backdrop-blur-sm`
+- Webhook proxies in `app/api/n8n/` (status, chat, hardcover, generate-image)
+- Auth via `N8N_SECRET_TOKEN` and/or `N8N_API_KEY` headers
+- All endpoints have rate limiting and 10s timeout
+- Hardcover reading data cached 5 minutes
 
 ## Design System

+Cards: `bg-gradient-to-br from-liquid-*/15 via-liquid-*/10 to-liquid-*/15` with `backdrop-blur-sm`, `border-2`, `rounded-xl`.
+
+Typography: Headlines uppercase, `tracking-tighter`, accent dot at end (`<span className="text-emerald-600">.</span>`).
+
+Accessibility: Use `text-stone-600 dark:text-stone-400` (not `text-stone-400` alone) for body text — contrast ratio must be ≥4.5:1.
+
+## Conventions
+
+- **TypeScript**: No `any` — use interfaces from `lib/directus.ts` or `types/`
+- **Components**: PascalCase files in `app/components/`; every async component needs a Skeleton loading state
+- **API routes**: kebab-case directories in `app/api/`
+- **i18n**: Always add keys to both `messages/en.json` and `messages/de.json`; `useTranslations()` in client, `getTranslations()` in server components
+- **Error logging**: `console.error` only when `process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"`
+- **Commit messages**: Conventional Commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`)
+- **No emojis** in code unless explicitly requested
+
+## Testing Notes
+
+- Jest with JSDOM; `jest.setup.ts` mocks `window.matchMedia`, `IntersectionObserver`, and `NextResponse`
+- ESM modules (react-markdown, remark-*, etc.) handled via `transformIgnorePatterns` in `jest.config.ts`
+- Server component tests: `const resolved = await Component({ props }); render(resolved)`
+- Test mocks for `next/image`: use `eslint-disable-next-line @next/next/no-img-element` on the `<img>` tag
+
+## Deployment & CI/CD
+
+- `output: "standalone"` in `next.config.ts`
+- Entrypoint: `scripts/start-with-migrate.js` — waits for DB, runs migrations (non-fatal), starts server
+- CI/CD: `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` — `test-build` (all branches), `deploy-dev` (dev branch only), `deploy-production` (production branch only)
+- **Branches**: `dev` → testing.dk0.dev | `production` → dk0.dev
+- Dev and production share the same PostgreSQL and Redis instances

-## Conventions
+## Adding a CMS-managed Section
 
-- Language: Code in English, user-facing text via i18n (EN + DE)
-- Commit messages: Conventional Commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`)
-- Components: PascalCase files in `app/components/`
-- API routes: kebab-case directories in `app/api/`
-- CMS data always has a static fallback - never rely solely on Directus
-- Error logging: Only in `development` mode (`process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"`)
-- No emojis in code unless explicitly requested
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-### Adding a new CMS-managed section
-1. Define the GraphQL query + types in `lib/directus.ts`
-2. Create an API route in `app/api/<name>/route.ts`
-3. Create a component in `app/components/<Name>.tsx`
-4. Add i18n keys to `messages/en.json` and `messages/de.json`
-5. Integrate into the parent component (usually `About.tsx`)
-
-### Adding i18n strings
-1. Add keys to `messages/en.json` and `messages/de.json`
-2. Access via `useTranslations("key.path")` in client components
-3. Or `getTranslations("key.path")` in server components
-
-### Working with Directus collections
-- All queries go through `directusRequest()` in `lib/directus.ts`
-- Uses GraphQL endpoint (`/graphql`)
-- 2-second timeout, graceful null fallback
-- Translations filtered by `languages_code.code` matching Directus locale
+1. Define GraphQL query + types in `lib/directus.ts`
+2. Create API route `app/api/<name>/route.ts` with `runtime='nodejs'`, `dynamic='force-dynamic'`, and `source` field in response
+3. Create component `app/components/<Name>.tsx` with Skeleton loading state
+4. Add i18n keys to both `messages/en.json` and `messages/de.json`
+5. Create `<Name>Client` wrapper in `app/components/ClientWrappers.tsx` with scoped `NextIntlClientProvider`
+6. Add to `app/_ui/HomePageServer.tsx` wrapped in `<ScrollFadeIn>`

+# Gemini CLI: Project Context & Engineering Mandates
+
+## Project Identity
+- **Name:** Dennis Konkol Portfolio (dk0.dev)
+- **Aesthetic:** "Liquid Editorial Bento" (Premium, minimalistisch, hoch-typografisch).
+- **Core Palette:** Creme (`#fdfcf8`), Stone (`#0c0a09`), Emerald (`#10b981`), Sky, Purple.
+
+## Tech Stack
+- **Framework:** Next.js 15 (App Router), Tailwind CSS 3.4.
+- **CMS:** Directus (primär für Texte, Hobbies, Tech-Stack, Projekte).
+- **Database:** PostgreSQL (Prisma) als lokaler Cache/Mirror für Projekte.
+- **Animations:** Framer Motion (bevorzugt für alle Übergänge).
+- **i18n:** `next-intl` (Locales: `en`, `de`).
+
+## Engineering Guidelines (Mandates)
+
+### 1. UI Components
+- **Bento Grid:** Neue Features sollten immer in das bestehende Grid integriert werden. Keine schwebenden Overlays.
+- **Skeletons:** Jede asynchrone Komponente benötigt einen passenden `Skeleton` Ladezustand.
+- **Typography:** Headlines immer uppercase, tracking-tighter, mit Akzent-Punkt am Ende.
+
+### 2. Implementation Rules
+- **TypeScript:** Keine `any`. Nutze bestehende Interfaces in `lib/directus.ts` oder `app/_ui/`.
+- **Resilience:** Alle API-Calls müssen Fehler abfangen und sinnvolle Fallbacks (oder Skeletons) anzeigen.
+- **Next.js Standalone:** Das Projekt nutzt den `standalone` Build-Mode. Docker-Builds müssen immer verifiziert werden.
+
+### 3. Agent Instructions
+- **Codebase Investigator:** Nutze dieses Tool für Architektur-Fragen.
+- **Testing:** Führe `npm run test` nach UI-Änderungen aus. Achte auf JSDOM-Einschränkungen (Mocking von `window.matchMedia` und `IntersectionObserver`).
+- **CMS First:** Texte sollten nach Möglichkeit aus der `messages` Collection in Directus kommen, nicht hartcodiert werden.
+
+## Current State
+- **Branch:** `dev` (pushed)
+- **Status:** Design Overhaul abgeschlossen, Build stabil, Docker verifiziert.
