## 📊 Project Overview

| Item | Details |
|------|---------|
| **Framework** | Next.js 14.2.28 (App Router) |
| **Backend** | TypeScript + Better Auth |
| **Database** | MySQL + Prisma ORM |
| **Deployment** | PM2 on Linux server |
| **Auth** | Email/password, 7-day sessions |
| **Cloud Storage** | Tencent COS |
| **API Endpoints** | 14 total (protected) |
| **Database Models** | 7 (Better Auth + custom) |
| **Protected Pages** | 3 (levels, users, wx-users) |
| **Status** | Production-ready ✅ |

## 🔑 Key Features

✅ Admin platform for game level management
✅ User management (admin accounts)
✅ WeChat mini-program user tracking
✅ Drag-and-drop level reordering
✅ Image upload to Tencent COS
✅ Role-free authentication (all users = admin)
✅ Transactional database operations

❌ **Missing:** Share/invite system, permission system, audit logging

## ⚠️ Critical Notes

### basePath Handling
- Application served at `/studio`
- `apiFetch()` auto-prepends basePath
- Middleware checks WITHOUT basePath (Next.js 14)
- Don't manually add `/studio` to routes!

### Better Auth Configuration
- ⚠️ `BETTER_AUTH_URL` must NOT have path component
- ❌ Wrong: `https://domain.com/studio`
- ✅ Right: `https://domain.com`

### Environment Variables Required
```
DATABASE_URL              # MySQL connection
BETTER_AUTH_SECRET       # 32+ random chars
BETTER_AUTH_URL          # Origin only
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL      # Same as BETTER_AUTH_URL
NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH    # /studio
ADMIN_EMAIL              # For seed
ADMIN_PASSWORD           # For seed
COS_SECRET_ID            # Tencent Cloud
COS_SECRET_KEY           # Tencent Cloud
COS_BUCKET               # Tencent Cloud
COS_REGION               # Tencent Cloud
COS_APPID                # Tencent Cloud
```
