Rebuild the hub on Bun: Elysia API, Better Auth, Drizzle, Next.js website
CI / test (push) Successful in 30s

The hub becomes a Bun monorepo: apps/api (Elysia, Better Auth for accounts, roles, bans, proxy device
sign-in and JWT keys; tagline linking, presence and the console as before), packages/db (Drizzle; Postgres in
production, PGlite in development and tests), and the Next.js website from apps/web. Self-hostable with
docker compose; the website deploys to Vercel-style hosts, the API to any that runs Bun or containers. The
first version, in Go, is removed.

T5DE's hub: accounts linked to IMVU accounts, presence, and (to come) the registry of community products and
catalogs, T5DE-hosted rooms, and the moderation console. Part of T5DE (git.t5de.dev/t5de). Design:
[docs/design.md](docs/design.md); what a room needs from a server: [docs/imq-rooms.md](docs/imq-rooms.md).

## What works
- **Accounts**: sign-up and sign-in (Argon2id passwords), sessions with CSRF protection. The first account is an
admin.
- **Accounts** (Better Auth): sign-up with email, username and password; sign-in by username. The first account is
an admin; roles user, moderator, admin.
- **Linking IMVU accounts**: the person puts a code in the account's tagline; the hub reads it from IMVU's public
API. The most recent proof wins (an account linked elsewhere moves). Link caps per person (default 10).
- **Age**: an account counts as adult if IMVU says it's age verified or has Access Pass, checked by the hub.
- **Proxy sign-in**: OAuth 2.0 device codes (`t5de-proxy signin` shows a code to enter at `/device`); Ed25519 JWT
access tokens (keys at `/.well-known/jwks.json`) and rotating refresh tokens.

- **Age**: an IMVU account counts as adult if IMVU says it's age verified or has Access Pass, checked by the hub.
- **Proxy sign-in**: OAuth 2.0 device authorization (`t5de-proxy signin` shows a code to enter at `/device`); the
proxy then uses its session as a bearer token. JWTs with published keys (`/.well-known/jwks.json`) for catalogs.
- **Presence**: signed-in proxies keep a WebSocket (`/api/v1/realtime`) telling the hub which IMVU account is in
use and the community products it wears. `/online` shows accounts that opted in, with the opt-in T5DE badge.
- **Console** (moderators): counts, who's online (live), people search, link caps, bans, roles, audit log.

## Layout
A Bun monorepo (workspaces, Turborepo):
| | |
| --- | --- |
| `apps/api` | The API: Elysia on Bun, Better Auth, the realtime WebSocket. Port 4101. |
| `apps/web` | The website: Next.js 16 (React server components), Tailwind CSS 4, shadcn/ui. Port 4100. Calls the API through its own `/api` (rewrites), typed end to end with Eden. |
| `packages/db` | Drizzle schema and migrations; Postgres in production, PGlite (in-process Postgres) for development and tests. |
## Development
Needs Bun (1.4) and Node (for Next.js).
bun install
bun run dev # the API on :4101 (database in apps/api/data) and the website on :4100
`bun run test` tests the API against PGlite; `bun run check-types`, `bun run build`.
## Running it
go run ./cmd/t5de-hub -dev
- **Self-hosted**: `AUTH_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 32) docker compose up -d` runs Postgres, the API and the
website (see `docker-compose.yml` for the public addresses).
- **Elsewhere**: the website deploys as is to Vercel and similar (`apps/web`, env `API_URL`); the API to any host
that runs Bun or containers (Railway, Render, Fly.io, Heroku), with `DATABASE_URL`, `AUTH_SECRET`, `API_URL` (its
public address) and `WEB_URL` (the website's).
runs the hub at http://127.0.0.1:8080 with its own Postgres (downloaded once, kept in `t5de-hub-data/`). In
production: `t5de-hub -db postgres://... -public-url https://hub.t5de.dev -listen :8080 -data /var/lib/t5de-hub`
(the data directory holds the token signing key).
To point a T5DE proxy at it: `t5de-proxy signin -hub http://127.0.0.1:8080`.
## Tests
`go test ./...` runs everything, the website and API against a real Postgres (embedded, downloaded on first run
and cached; `T5DE_PG_CACHE` sets where), or the Postgres at `T5DE_TEST_DB` (as CI does), and a fake IMVU API.
T5DE's proxies reach the API's address directly (sign-in and the WebSocket): `t5de-proxy signin -hub <API address>`.
