Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. Task 1: Create middleware helper and main middleware - 6cfe58e (feat)
2. Task 2: Create protected dashboard layout and page - af17f90 (feat)
3. Task 3: Update home page to redirect appropriately - 4c6ff1a (feat)

Files Created/Modified

• middleware.ts - Main middleware with route protection and session refresh
• src/lib/supabase/middleware.ts - updateSession helper for session management
• src/app/(dashboard)/layout.tsx - Dashboard layout with header and user nav
• src/app/(dashboard)/dashboard/page.tsx - Dashboard page with plan info cards
• src/components/layout/user-nav.tsx - Client component with logout functionality
• src/app/page.tsx - Landing page with auth-aware redirect

Decisions Made

• Middleware placed at project root (Next.js convention, not in src/)
• Protected routes stored in array for easy extension
• redirectTo query param saved for post-login redirect
• UserNav as client component for onClick logout handler

Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

Issues Encountered

None - all tasks completed without issues.

User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

Next Phase Readiness

• Full auth flow complete: registration, login, Google OAuth, session persistence
• Protected dashboard accessible only to authenticated users
• Ready for Phase 2 (Social Integration) or Phase 1 plan 06 (Database schema if exists)
• All must_haves verified:
  • Unauthenticated users redirected to /login when accessing /dashboard
  • Authenticated users stay logged in across page refreshes
  • User can log out and is redirected to login
  • Session refreshes automatically (middleware calls getUser())
