Both features ship dark. Neither is reachable in an environment where
its flag is off, and every flag in this system starts off, so a deploy
of this commit makes both disappear until someone turns them on
deliberately.

Two independent flags rather than one, which makes blog-on-about-off a
reachable state. That state is the whole reason the change is larger
than four notFound() calls: the blog leans on the About page for its
author identity. The Person entity is anchored at /about#tudor, and
that URL 404s while about_page is dark, so a post published in that
state would claim an author resolving to nothing. Worse than having no
named author. Both bylines fall back to unlinked text and the
BlogPosting attributes to the publisher instead, so every combination
of the two flags renders something correct.

Gated: /about, /blog, /blog/[slug], the RSS feed, both footer links,
and the matching content-sitemap entries. A sitemap must never
advertise a URL that 404s. With both dark it emits a valid empty
urlset rather than a 404, because robots.txt names it unconditionally.

Not gated: /admin. Posts have to be writable before the blog is worth
switching on, so flagging the panel would make the flag unflippable.

getFlags takes a revalidate rather than always using the 300s
constant. Reading a flag pins the calling route to the lowest
revalidate among its fetches, and the footer links live in the root
layout, so a naive gate there would have dropped every school and
place page from a weekly cache to a 5-minute one. The layout passes
604800, the floor those routes already declare, and the build confirms
all four SSG route families still prerender. The cost is one-way
latency: pages follow a flip in minutes, footer links within a week.

The e2e journeys follow the existing paired shape from the
admission_distance flag: a lit journey and a dark one for each flag,
reading state from whether /about and /blog respond rather than from
/api/flags, which another journey asserts is not publicly reachable.

TudorandClaude Opus 5 e2c63a9905 fix(cms): ship the initial migration so a container finds its tables

Staging failed on boot with 42P01, relation "payload.users" does not
exist. The schema was empty because no migration existed, and the
adapter cannot create tables itself: db-postgres/connect.js gates push
on NODE_ENV !== 'production', so it is inert in a deployed container
regardless of config.

The generated migration is schema-qualified to "payload" throughout but
does not create that schema — schemaName says where tables go, it does
not create anything. It only worked against the throwaway database used
to generate it because the schema was created there by hand, so every
real environment would have failed on the first statement. CREATE SCHEMA
IF NOT EXISTS is hand-added at the top of up(), which makes it exactly
the kind of edit a regeneration discards silently; a test asserts it is
present and ordered before the first CREATE TABLE.

payload-types.ts is now committed rather than ignored. Ignoring it meant
CI typechecked against looser types than a developer with a generated
copy, which is how a Record<string, unknown> cast passed CI and then
failed locally the moment the file appeared. The post page uses the
generated Post and Media types instead, and narrows heroImage rather
than asserting it, since the field is an id at shallow depth.

TudorandClaude Opus 5 e25722d9ab fix(blog): hide drafts at the access layer, and back the --drop claim

Review findings on #140.

Drafts were reachable. Posts granted unconditional public read and the
_status filter lived only in the pages that query the collection — which
is a convenience, not a control. Payload's documentation is explicit:
"The `draft` argument alone does not restrict documents with _status:
'draft' from being returned by the API." A direct GET /cms-api/posts
would have handed every unpublished draft to any visitor. Read access
now returns a query constraint for anonymous callers, which is the
documented mechanism.

The --drop claim was asserted across four files while the spec still
listed it as an open question. Now verified rather than assumed:
run_full_migration drops exactly ["school_results", "schools"] by name,
there is no drop_all() or DROP SCHEMA anywhere in backend/, the only
other drop is schema-qualified to marts, and nothing sets search_path.
The guarantee is stronger than schema isolation alone — those two table
names do not exist in Payload — so the claim stands, but it now rests on
cited code. The spec records the evidence and closes the open item.

findPost is wrapped in React's cache(): Next calls generateMetadata and
the page separately for one request, so every post view ran the same
query against Postgres twice.

The bare .lede rule was dead — .prose p scores (0,1,1) and outranks it —
so only .prose .lede ever applied. Removed, with the specificity noted
so the surviving selector is not "simplified" back into a silent
regression.

TudorandClaude Opus 5 b793640507 feat(blog): add the blog index, post pages, RSS and content sitemap
The rendering split is dictated by CI building with no database.

/blog, /blog/rss.xml and /content-sitemap.xml have no dynamic params, so
Next prerenders them at build time and the build fails on a missing
Payload secret — caught here, not on staging. They are force-dynamic
instead: one indexed query against Postgres on the same Docker network,
and a newly published post appears immediately rather than waiting on a
revalidation. /blog/[slug] keeps ISR, because with no
generateStaticParams there is nothing to prerender; it is generated on
first request and cached, which is exactly what the collection's
afterChange hook exists to invalidate.

RichText takes `converters`, not `blocks`, in Payload 3.88, and the
default converters must be spread or every paragraph and heading loses
its renderer and the body comes out empty.

BlogPosting references the Person and Organization by @id rather than
repeating them, so every post and the About page resolve to one author
entity instead of declaring several people with the same name.

/sitemap.xml is proxied from FastAPI, which knows nothing about Payload,
so the Next-owned URLs get their own sitemap and robots.txt lists both.
