Age: a Didit provider behind the vendor-neutral age interface. A person
verifies once (ID document, passive liveness, face match) and all their
linked IMVU accounts count as adult. Webhooks are checked against Didit's
signatures; only "over 18" is kept. A later answer replaces an earlier one
(an approval taken back is revoked). Checks are limited: one unfinished
check per person, 3 in 30 days, none once verified, and a monthly cap
(DIDIT_MONTHLY_LIMIT, default 30: Didit's free plan is $10 of credit a
month and a check costs $0.30). The Account page gets an Age Verification
card.
Registration: open or closed, an admin's setting in the console
(default from REGISTRATION). Closed: new accounts can only sign in until
a moderator approves them (or declines, deleting the account); the
website shows them a waiting page and the API treats them as signed out.

Revisions with an IMVU parent store its public info (image, category path, gender)
from IMVU's product API, looked up after registering and in a periodic pass.
Product views gain parent, image and categories; GET /products takes category and
limit. The website shows the image on cards and product pages.

The hub registers catalogs (hidden until a moderator approves them), hands out upload tokens, and records the
revisions catalogs register after validating uploads: numbered, never changed, signed by the hub (its own
Ed25519 key, published at /.well-known/t5de-keys.json). Creators edit product info (descriptions cleaned by an
allowlist) and can retract revisions. People get products into their library, optionally staying on a
revision; the proxy asks which revision to load and where. Contract in docs/products.md.

The realtime connection now carries the IMVU chats a client is in: the hub tells each proxy in a chat which
other T5DE users are there and what community products they wear (adult products only to adult accounts), on
joining and on every change. Rooms T5DE users enter are looked up on IMVU; those that are public, listed and
whose owner turned on "List my public rooms" appear on the new Rooms page, with the T5DE users in them who
show they're online. AP rooms are shown to adults only.

Age checks are recorded in one table (age_check) by provider, method and result, never with documents or
birth dates; one rule decides whether an IMVU account counts as adult (its person's check, or its own).
Providers implement a small interface (start, webhook or browser completion, re-check) and are chosen by
configuration, so phone wallets and Didit can be added, or swapped, as adapters. IMVU's answer per account
is re-checked when it expires (about daily). Existing links' results move into the new table.

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.
