TudorandClaude Opus 5 68b6417149 feat(destinations): types and secondary section flags
Destinations are secondary-only, so the flags go on computeSecondaryFlags
rather than computeSchoolFlags. A phase counts as present only when some
pupil group carries categories — an empty block would otherwise open a nav
entry pointing at a section that never renders.

Earlier years are to become a paid feature, so they stop being published.

The load-bearing part is that this is a change to the API, not only to the
page. /api/schools/{urn} is public and unauthenticated: leaving
admission_distance_history in the payload while declining to render it would
have handed the whole record to anyone who opened the network tab. It is
withheld at the source, and the page follows.

Nothing changes upstream. The tap, the plausibility band and
fact_admission_distance are untouched and still load every published year, so
restoring history for entitled callers is a change to one function in
data_loader rather than a re-collection.

What the reader now gets is the latest figure on the Admissions tile, and a
Distance section that answers the question the number alone cannot: whether
their own address falls inside it. Retitled to "How far away are you?", which
is what it now does — the previous title described a record that is no longer
there.

Removed with the history: the trend chart, the year-by-year table, the
per-year verdict strip, the trend summary and the coverage note, along with
their CSS. The section goes from 743px to 417px.

One consequence worth naming. A run of years used to soften a single close
call — a home just outside one year's cut-off was usually inside another. With
one year published, the "too close to call" band is the entire safety margin
between a parent and a place they do not have, so the verdict now names its
year, and the three outcomes are tinted apart rather than distinguished by
wording alone.

The existing stylesheet test earned its keep here: the three verdict classes
were referenced before they were written, and it caught them. Unstyled, a
"beyond the cut-off" result would have been indistinguishable from an "inside"
one — the exact failure the longhand class map was written to prevent.

The admissions card measured 1503px on a live school page — half the height
of every section put together, and nearly three times the next largest — with
its default view rendering as four tiles adrift in about 1080px of blank card.

The cause was a layout trick meeting content it was never sized for. The
admissions views are stacked in one grid cell so switching them never shifts
layout, and the hidden ones keep their box: only visibility is dropped. That
works while the views are comparable. The distance view added in #102 carries
a chart, a table and a map, came to 1402px against the tile grid's 316px, and
pinned every other view to its height — including the one that renders by
default, which nobody had clicked.

Rather than only unpinning it, the detail moves out. Every other topic on the
page is a section with a nav entry, and "how close did we need to live, and
would we have got in?" is a topic, not a variant reading of the intake
figures. The headline number stays on the Admissions tile where the intake
story is; the record behind it now lives in a Distance section directly below.

  admissions   1503px -> 554px
  distance        new -> 743px   (median section on the page is ~528px)

Three further changes, each of which also makes the content better rather
than only shorter:

  * The map renders on request. Before a postcode is entered it is a circle
    drawn round a school, and it costs a Leaflet bundle and 240px to say so;
    a successful check opens it automatically, which is the point at which it
    starts answering something. Map height 320px -> 240px.
  * The chart appears only at the four published years that let the summary
    state a direction. Below that we already refuse to call the series a
    trend, and a line through three points asserts one regardless of what the
    sentence beneath it admits. The table carries those years anyway, with
    the reasons a line cannot show.
  * Three caveat paragraphs become one. They said walking-route twice and
    made the same point about priorities in two voices. It now sits in
    CutoffDistanceDetail rather than inside the check, so it still renders
    for a school with coordinates missing, where there is a table but no map
    and no check.

The new e2e guard asserts no section exceeds 2.5x the median section height.
Measuring the card's internals cannot catch this: the tile grid is flex: 1,
so it absorbs the stretch and every box still looks full. The first version
of this test targeted an arbitrary primary, passed against the live bug, and
proved nothing; pointed at a school that actually holds cut-off history it
fails on staging with "#admissions is 1459px against a 526px median".

Adds the cut-off distance a parent actually asks about — "how close do we
need to live?" — end to end: a Singer tap, dbt staging and mart models, an
Airflow DAG, and a tile on both detail templates. 3,597 schools across 57
local authorities carry a figure; the rest are unchanged.

There is no national source for this. Each LA publishes its own cut-offs in
its own format, and the collected CSV is transcribed from PDFs, spreadsheets
and web pages — so most of the work here is deciding what is safe to show.

Data
  * tap-uk-school-distance loads the CSV verbatim into raw. Keyed on
    (urn, year, school_name), because school_name carries the admission
    route: (urn, year) alone collides on 118 keys and a reload would have
    silently dropped every band but one.
  * stg_school_distance applies a 25 m – 25 km plausibility band. The source
    contains 0.0-mile rows (published where a school filled on a higher
    criterion), 1-metre cut-offs, and one reading 533 miles — ~4% of rows,
    all of which would put a visibly wrong number on a live page.
  * fact_admission_distance collapses routes to one row per school per year
    using the furthest, and keeps route_count so the page can say the figure
    is the widest of several bands rather than the one for a given child.

Serving
  * Kept out of fact_admissions: that mart is EES-derived and near-complete
    for England, this one covers 57 LAs, and the two refresh independently.
  * Latest year only. Coverage is ragged — a school may have 2021 and 2026
    and nothing between — so a history array would invite a trend line drawn
    through gaps that are absences of publication, not of a cut-off.
  * The Admissions section now renders on either source. 3% of the schools
    that render have a cut-off and no EES admissions row, and gating on
    admissions alone would have hidden the figure on those pages.

Interface
  * The year travels with the figure everywhere it appears; a cut-off
    detached from its admissions round is not a fact about anything.
  * "Not a fixed catchment — it moves every year" sits under every instance,
    because that is the inference a parent will otherwise draw.
  * Replaces a hardcoded "Historical distance cut-off data is not available
    for this school" that appeared on every secondary page, including the
    ones whose council does publish it. The absence is now stated only when
    it is real, and names the authority that would hold it.

The tint costs the muted tokens their AA margin: measured on the composited
backdrop (not the computed one, which reports the untinted card), --text-muted
falls to 4.09:1 in dark theme. The tile uses --text-secondary instead — 6.50:1
dark, 6.60:1 light.

The DAG is manual, like the other annual ones: councils publish on allocation
day, each on its own timetable, so there is no date worth scheduling against.

TudorandClaude Opus 5 5044c24895 refactor(detail): extract derived flags and nav items to lib
Pure data-shape logic moves out of the client components so page.tsx can
compute the section list on the server without importing them.

The secondary page is not a variant of the primary one -- different section
ids (gcse, wellbeing), different flags, and History gated on more than one
year rather than at least one -- so it gets its own computeSecondaryFlags and
buildSecondaryNavItems rather than bending a shared function.

Adds 16 unit tests covering the all-through and special-school branches,
previously reachable only through a full component render.
