fix: await Discord SDK voice subscribes and add missing Activity API endpoints

- Await SPEAKING_START/SPEAKING_STOP subscribes so try-catch handles 4006 scope errors
- Add GET /api/feed and POST /api/feed/:id/like (community posts alias for Activity)
- Add DELETE /api/activity/polls/:id (soft-delete via is_active=false)
- Add POST /api/activity/challenges/:id/claim (marks challenge progress as completed)
- Add GET /api/activity/badges (all badges, no userId required)

+--space-16: 96px
+```
+
+### Common Patterns
+
+```css
+/* Card padding */
+p-6         /* 24px - standard card */
+p-4         /* 16px - compact card */
+
+/* Section spacing */
+py-12       /* 48px - mobile */
+py-16       /* 64px - desktop */

+
+## ♿ Accessibility
+
+### Standards
+- WCAG 2.1 AA compliance
+- Keyboard navigation for all interactive elements
+- Focus indicators visible
+- Semantic HTML
+- ARIA labels where needed
+
+### Keyboard Shortcuts
+- `Cmd/Ctrl + K`: Open command palette
+- `Tab`: Navigate forward
+- `Shift + Tab`: Navigate backward
+- `Enter/Space`: Activate buttons
+- `Esc`: Close modals/dialogs
+
+### Focus Management
+```css
+/* All interactive elements have visible focus */
+focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-primary focus:ring-offset-2 focus:ring-offset-background
+```
+
+### Screen Reader Support
+- Alt text on all images
+- Descriptive link text (no "click here")
+- Form labels properly associated
+- Status messages announced
+
+---
+
+## 📱 Responsive Design
+
+### Breakpoints
+
+```typescript
+sm:  640px   /* Mobile landscape */
+md:  768px   /* Tablet */
+lg:  1024px  /* Desktop */
+xl:  1280px  /* Large desktop */
+2xl: 1536px  /* Extra large */
+```
+
+### Mobile-First Approach
+
+```tsx
+// Default: Mobile
+<div className="text-sm">
+
+// Desktop: Larger text
+<div className="text-sm md:text-base lg:text-lg">
+
+// Grid: 1 column mobile, 3 columns desktop
+<div className="grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-2 lg:grid-cols-3 gap-4">
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Performance
+
+### Loading States
+- Skeleton loaders for content
+- Suspense boundaries for code splitting
+- Progressive image loading
+
+### Optimization
+- Lazy load routes
+- Code split heavy components
+- Minimize bundle size
+- Use production builds

+# 🏗️ Modular Architecture Design for aethex.dev Developer Platform
+
+**Status:** Phase 1 Analysis Complete  
+**Date:** January 7, 2026
+
+---
+
+## 📋 Executive Summary
+
+This document outlines the transformation of aethex-forge from a multi-purpose ecosystem hub into **aethex.dev** - a professional developer platform while preserving all existing functionality (including 🔒 Discord Activity).
+
+**Current State:**
+- Single monolithic React SPA with 843-line App.tsx
+- 90+ routes serving multiple audiences (developers, creators, staff, corporate clients, investors)
+- Mixed concerns: documentation, dashboards, community, staff tools, marketing pages
+- Existing docs system with 50+ markdown files
+
+**Target State:**
+- Modular developer platform with clear information architecture
+- Distinct feature modules (Docs, API Reference, Dashboard, SDK, Templates, Marketplace)
+- Developer-first UX (clean, technical aesthetic like Vercel/Stripe)
+- All existing functionality preserved and accessible
+
+---

+
+## 🚀 Migration Plan
+
+### Route Migration
+
+**No Breaking Changes:**
+- All existing routes remain functional
+- New routes added without conflicting with existing
+- Gradual transition: users can access both old and new sections
+
+**Migration Strategy:**
+```
+Phase 1: Additive (New routes alongside old)
+├── /dashboard (old) → General dashboard
+└── /dashboard/dev (new) → Developer dashboard
+
+Phase 2: Redirect (Old routes redirect to new)
+├── /dashboard → /dashboard/dev (redirect)
+└── Legacy routes preserved
+
+Phase 3: Consolidation (Remove old)
+├── Only when new system is proven stable
+└── Archive old components
+```
+
+### Component Migration
+
+**Strategy:**
+1. Build new components in `/client/components/dev-platform/`
+2. Use existing shadcn/ui components as base
+3. Gradually apply new design system to existing pages
+4. Keep old components until migration complete
+5. Remove old components only when fully replaced
+
+### Data Migration
+
+**API Keys:**
+- New feature, no existing data to migrate
+- Create fresh database tables
+
+**Usage Analytics:**
+- Start fresh tracking from launch date
+- No historical data needed
+
+---

+# 🔒 PROTECTED DISCORD ACTIVITY CODE INVENTORY
+
+**⚠️ CRITICAL CONSTRAINT: The following files, routes, and systems are LOCKED and MUST NOT be modified during the aethex.dev developer platform refactoring.**
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Protected API Endpoints
+
+### Discord OAuth & Linking System
+- 🔒 `/api/discord/oauth/start.ts` - Discord OAuth initiation
+- 🔒 `/api/discord/oauth/callback.ts` - Discord OAuth callback handler
+- 🔒 `/api/discord/link.ts` - Discord account linking
+- 🔒 `/api/discord/create-linking-session.ts` - Linking session management
+- 🔒 `/api/discord/verify-code.ts` - Discord verification code handler
+- 🔒 `/api/discord/token.ts` - Discord token management
+- 🔒 `/api/discord/activity-auth.ts` - Discord Activity authentication
+
+**Why Protected:** These endpoints handle the complete Discord integration flow for user authentication, account linking, and Activity-based authentication. Any changes could break Discord bot commands (`/verify`) and OAuth flows.
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Protected Client Routes (App.tsx)
+
+### Discord Activity Routes
+- 🔒 `/discord` → `<DiscordActivity />` component (Line 310)
+- 🔒 `/discord/callback` → `<DiscordOAuthCallback />` component (Line 311-314)
+- 🔒 `/discord-verify` → `<DiscordVerify />` component (Line 291-293)
+- 🔒 `/profile/link-discord` → `<DiscordVerify />` component (Line 260-262)
+- 🔒 `/activity` → `<Activity />` component (Line 308)
+
+**Why Protected:** These routes are critical for Discord Activity functionality, OAuth callbacks, and account linking. The `/discord` route is specifically designed for Discord Activity embedded experiences.
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Protected React Components
+
+### Context Providers
+- 🔒 `/client/contexts/DiscordContext.tsx` - Discord state management
+- 🔒 `/client/contexts/DiscordActivityContext.tsx` - Discord Activity detection & state
+
+### Page Components
+- 🔒 `/client/pages/DiscordActivity.tsx` - Main Discord Activity experience
+- 🔒 `/client/pages/DiscordOAuthCallback.tsx` - OAuth callback handler page
+- 🔒 `/client/pages/DiscordVerify.tsx` - Discord account verification/linking page
+
+**Why Protected:** These components implement the Discord Activity SDK integration and manage the specialized Discord-embedded experience. They include critical logic for detecting if the app is running inside Discord and adjusting the UI accordingly.
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Protected Configuration Files
+
+### Discord Manifest
+- 🔒 `/public/discord-manifest.json` - Discord Activity configuration
+
+**Contents:**
+```json
+{
+  "id": "578971245454950421",
+  "version": "1",
+  "name": "AeThex Activity",
+  "description": "AeThex Creator Network & Talent Platform - Discord Activity",
+  "rpc_origins": [
+    "https://aethex.dev",
+    "https://aethex.dev/activity",
+    "https://aethex.dev/discord",
+    "http://localhost:5173"
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+**Why Protected:** This manifest is required for Discord to recognize and embed the Activity. The application ID and RPC origins are critical for Activity functionality.
+
+### Environment Variables
+- 🔒 `VITE_DISCORD_CLIENT_ID` - Discord application client ID
+- 🔒 `DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET` - Discord OAuth secret (server-side)
+- 🔒 `DISCORD_REDIRECT_URI` - OAuth callback URL
+
+**Reference:** `.env.discord.example`
+
+**Why Protected:** These credentials are specific to the Discord Activity application and must remain consistent.
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Protected App.tsx Integration Points
+
+### Provider Wrapper Structure (Lines 178-185)
+```tsx
+<DiscordActivityProvider>
+  <SessionProvider>
+    <DiscordProvider>
+      <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
+        <RouterProvider router={router}>
+          <DiscordActivityWrapper>
+            {/* App content */}
+          </DiscordActivityWrapper>
+```
+
+**Why Protected:** The nesting order of these providers is critical. `DiscordActivityProvider` must wrap everything to detect Activity mode, and `DiscordProvider` manages Discord SDK initialization.
+
+### DiscordActivityWrapper Component (Lines 165-177)
+```tsx
+const DiscordActivityWrapper = ({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) => {
+  const { isActivity } = useDiscordActivity();
+  
+  if (isActivity) {
+    return <DiscordActivityLayout>{children}</DiscordActivityLayout>;
+  }
+  
+  return <>{children}</>;
+};
+```
+
+**Why Protected:** This wrapper conditionally applies Activity-specific layouts when running inside Discord, ensuring proper display in the embedded environment.
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Protected Documentation Files

+1. **discord-integration-guide.md** (Getting Started)
+2. **discord-activity-reference.md** (Technical Reference)
+3. **discord-deployment.md** (Production Guide)
+
+**Rule:** Archive originals in `/docs/archive/discord/`, don't delete.
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Safe to Modify (Boundaries)
+
+While Discord Activity code is protected, you **CAN** modify:
+
+### Navigation & Layout
+- ✅ Add Discord routes to new developer platform navigation
+- ✅ Update global navigation styling (as long as Discord pages remain accessible)
+- ✅ Add breadcrumbs that include Discord routes
+
+### Documentation Reference
+- ✅ Create API reference documentation that **documents** (but doesn't modify) Discord endpoints
+- ✅ Link to Discord integration guides from new developer docs
+- ✅ Create tutorials that use Discord Activity as an example
+
+### Design System
+- ✅ Apply new design system components to non-Discord pages
+- ✅ Update Tailwind config (Discord components will inherit global styles)
+- ✅ Update theme colors (Discord Activity will adapt via CSS variables)
+
+### Authentication
+- ✅ Integrate Discord OAuth with new developer dashboard (read-only, display linked status)
+- ✅ Show Discord connection status in new profile settings
+
+---
+
+## 🚫 NEVER DO
+
+- ❌ Rename Discord routes (`/discord`, `/discord-verify`, `/discord/callback`)
+- ❌ Modify Discord API endpoint logic (`/api/discord/*`)
+- ❌ Change Discord context provider structure
+- ❌ Remove or reorder `DiscordActivityProvider` or `DiscordProvider`
+- ❌ Modify Discord manifest file
+- ❌ Change Discord environment variable names
+- ❌ Delete Discord documentation (archive instead)
+- ❌ Refactor Discord Activity components
+- ❌ Remove Discord Activity detection logic
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Protected Dependencies
+
+The following NPM packages are critical for Discord Activity and must remain:
+
+- `@discord/embedded-app-sdk` (if used) - Discord Activity SDK
+- Discord OAuth libraries (check package.json)
+
+**Action Required:** Verify exact Discord dependencies in `package.json`
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Refactoring Strategy
+
+**Safe Approach:**
+1. ✅ Build new developer platform **AROUND** Discord Activity
+2. ✅ Create new routes (`/dashboard`, `/docs`, `/api-reference`) that don't conflict
+3. ✅ Add Discord Activity as a **featured integration** in new docs
+4. ✅ Link from developer dashboard to existing Discord pages
+5. ✅ Consolidate documentation into 3 guides, archive originals
+
+**Example Safe Structure:**
+```
+/                           ← New developer platform landing
+/docs                       ← New docs system
+  /docs/integrations/discord ← Links to protected Discord docs
+/api-reference              ← New API reference
+  /api-reference/discord    ← Documents (read-only) Discord APIs
+/dashboard                  ← New developer dashboard
+/sdk                        ← New SDK distribution pages
+
+🔒 /discord                 ← PROTECTED - Discord Activity page
+🔒 /discord-verify          ← PROTECTED - Discord verification
+🔒 /activity                ← PROTECTED - Activity alias
+🔒 /api/discord/*           ← PROTECTED - All Discord API endpoints
+```

+
+## 📋 Pre-Refactor Verification Checklist
+
+Before making ANY changes, verify these items work:
+
+- [ ] Discord Activity loads at `/discord`
+- [ ] Discord OAuth flow works (try logging in via Discord)
+- [ ] `/verify` command in Discord bot creates working links
+- [ ] Dashboard "Link Discord" button works
+- [ ] Discord connection shows in profile settings
+- [ ] Discord manifest serves at `/discord-manifest.json`
+
+**If any of these fail, DO NOT PROCEED with refactoring until fixed.**
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Summary
+
+**Protected Files Count:**
+- 7 API endpoints
+- 5 client routes
+- 3 React page components
+- 2 context providers
+- 1 manifest file
+- 3 environment variables
+- 14+ documentation files
+
+**Golden Rule:**
+> "Refactoring can happen AROUND Discord Activity, but never TO it."
+
+**Emergency Contact:**
+If Discord Activity breaks during refactoring, immediately:
+1. Git revert to last working commit
+2. Check this document for what was changed
+3. Verify all protected files are intact
+4. Test the pre-refactor verification checklist

+# AeThex Spacing & Layout System
+
+## Standardized Spacing Tokens
+
+### Container Widths
+- `max-w-7xl` - Dashboard, main app pages (1280px)
+- `max-w-6xl` - Settings, forms, content pages (1152px) 
+- `max-w-4xl` - Articles, documentation (896px)
+- `max-w-2xl` - Centered cards, modals (672px)
+
+### Page Padding
+```tsx
+// Standard page wrapper
+<div className="container mx-auto px-4 sm:px-6 lg:px-8 py-8 lg:py-12 max-w-7xl">
+```
+
+### Vertical Spacing
+- `space-y-2` - Tight grouped items (4px)
+- `space-y-4` - Related content (16px)
+- `space-y-6` - Card sections (24px)
+- `space-y-8` - Page sections (32px)
+- `space-y-12` - Major sections (48px)
+- `space-y-16` - Section breaks (64px)
+
+### Horizontal Spacing
+- `gap-2` - Tight inline items (badges, tags)
+- `gap-4` - Button groups, form fields
+- `gap-6` - Card grids (2-3 cols)
+- `gap-8` - Wide card grids (1-2 cols)
+
+### Card Padding
+- `p-4 sm:p-6` - Standard cards
+- `p-6 lg:p-8` - Feature cards
+- `p-8 lg:p-12` - Hero sections
+
+## Layout Patterns
+
+### Page Header
+```tsx
+<div className="space-y-4 mb-8">
+  <h1 className="text-4xl font-bold">Title</h1>
+  <p className="text-muted-foreground text-lg">Description</p>
+</div>
+```
+
+### Grid Layouts
+```tsx
+// 3-column responsive
+<div className="grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-2 lg:grid-cols-3 gap-6">
+
+// 2-column with sidebar
+<div className="grid lg:grid-cols-[2fr,1fr] gap-8">
+```
+
+### Responsive Padding
+```tsx
+// Mobile-first approach
+className="px-4 py-6 sm:px-6 sm:py-8 lg:px-8 lg:py-12"
+```
+
+## Common Issues Found
+
+### ❌ Problems:
+1. **Inconsistent container widths** - Some pages use `max-w-6xl`, others `max-w-7xl`, some have none
+2. **Mixed padding units** - `px-3`, `px-4`, `px-6` all used randomly
+3. **Unresponsive spacing** - Many pages don't adapt padding for mobile
+4. **No vertical rhythm** - `space-y-*` used inconsistently
+5. **Misaligned grids** - Gap sizes vary randomly (gap-2, gap-3, gap-4, gap-6)
+
+### ✅ Solutions:
+- Use `max-w-7xl` for all app pages
+- Always use responsive padding: `px-4 sm:px-6 lg:px-8`
+- Standard vertical spacing: `space-y-8` between major sections
+- Standard gaps: `gap-4` for buttons, `gap-6` for cards
+- Add `py-8 lg:py-12` to all page containers
+
+## Implementation Checklist
+
+- [ ] Dashboard pages
+- [ ] Community pages  
+- [ ] Settings pages
+- [ ] Documentation pages
+- [ ] Forms and modals
+- [ ] Card components
+- [ ] Navigation spacing
