adilalloandCursor	42d83c8b62	Give builder fields persistent labels, treat description as optional, and validate save-progress email with a real form. Name stays required; description is a labelled optional textarea. Email uses native validity and form submit. Drop the dead workshop link and fix a few copy errors.

adilalloandCursor	ce581a42c8	Fix case-study share chrome, hero lockup width, and copy confirmation in the share dialog. Marketing pages omitted create-flow nav copy, so Share rendered as a translation key; the case-study banner squeezed hero text to the thumbnail width; Copy link had no hover or copied state.

adilalloandCursor	4bd9fa6dc6	Restore the folder header to Figma layout without cloning the nav, and page-center inner-page links with the home cluster.

adilalloandCursor	5242f8c6bb	Give the shell one header, a skip link, and a cookie-aware first paint.

adilalloandCursor	b2b272d2cc	Give each route its own title and canonical, and add robots.txt plus a sitemap. The root layout was stamping the homepage title and production root onto every page. Routes now supply a page segment through one em-dash template, canonicals follow the request path, and non-production hosts disallow crawlers.
