+- **Never use Nostr protocol jargon.** NIP numbers (e.g., "NIP-89", "NIP-17"), kind numbers (e.g., "kind 30078"), and other protocol-level references must not appear in the changelog. Describe the feature in plain language from the user's perspective. For example, write "App cards for Nostr apps" instead of "App cards for Nostr apps (NIP-89)". The changelog audience is end users, not protocol developers.
 - **Collapse related work into one entry.** If a feature was added and then fixed/tweaked across multiple commits in the same release, present the finished result as a single "Added" entry. Never list something as "Added" and then also list fixes for that same thing -- the user sees the end product, not the development history.
 - **Omit purely internal changes.** CI fixes, build pipeline tweaks, developer tooling, and infrastructure changes should be omitted from the changelog entirely unless they have a direct, visible impact on the user experience. The changelog is for users, not developers.
 - **Compare the actual code between versions** to understand what really changed, rather than just reading commit messages. Commit messages may over- or under-represent the significance of changes.

+### D-Tag Collision Prevention for Addressable Events
+
+Addressable events (kind 30000-39999) are identified by `pubkey + kind + d-tag`. Publishing an event with the same d-tag as an existing one **silently replaces** it. This is by design for intentional updates (edit flows), but dangerous when creating *new* content with user-derived d-tags (slugs from titles, user-entered identifiers, etc.).
+
+#### When to Check for Collisions
+
+**Must check before publishing** when the d-tag is derived from user input (slugified titles, user-entered identifiers, etc.). **No check needed** when the d-tag is a `crypto.randomUUID()`, a canonical format with embedded pubkey prefix, or intentionally the same as an existing event (edit/update flows).
+
+#### Implementation Pattern
+
+Before publishing a **new** addressable event with a user-derived d-tag, query for an existing event with that d-tag. If one exists, block the publish and tell the user to change the identifier.
+
+```typescript
+// Before publishing a new addressable event:
+const slug = slugify(title, { lower: true, strict: true });
+
+const existing = await nostr.query([
+  { kinds: [30023], authors: [user.pubkey], '#d': [slug], limit: 1 },
+]);
+
+if (existing.length > 0) {
+  toast({
+    title: 'Slug already in use',
+    description: 'Change the slug or edit the existing item.',
+    variant: 'destructive',
+  });
+  return;
+}
+
+// Safe to publish
+publishEvent({ kind: 30023, content, tags: [['d', slug], ...otherTags] });
+```
+
+**Skip the check in edit mode** -- when the user explicitly loaded an existing event to update, overwriting is the intended behavior.
+
+Prefer UUID or canonical formats when the d-tag doesn't need to be human-readable. Only use slugified input when the d-tag will appear in URLs or needs to be meaningful to users, and always add a collision check.

 The app uses NIP-65 compatible relay management with automatic sync when users log in. Local storage persists user preferences and relay configurations.
 
+### Adding a New AppConfig Value
+
+Adding a new configuration field requires updates in **three places**. Missing any of them will cause build failures or runtime issues.
+
+1. **TypeScript interface** (`src/contexts/AppContext.ts`): Add the field to the `AppConfig` interface with a JSDoc comment.

+
+### nsite Publishing
+
+The project automatically deploys the web app to [nsite](https://nsite.run) on every push to the default branch using [nsyte](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/nsyte). The `deploy-nsite` CI job builds the Vite app and uploads the `dist/` directory to Blossom servers, publishing site manifest events to Nostr relays.
+
+nsyte uses a NIP-46 bunker credential called `nbunksec` -- a bech32-encoded string that bundles the bunker pubkey, client secret key, and relay info into a single self-contained token. This is passed to nsyte via `--sec`.
+
+**GitLab CI/CD Variables** (Settings > CI/CD > Variables):
+
+| Variable | Description | Protected | Masked | Raw |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `NSITE_NBUNKSEC` | nbunksec credential from `nsyte ci`. Must start with `nbunksec1`. | Yes | Yes | Yes |
+
+#### Initial Setup (one-time)
+
+1. Install nsyte locally:
+   ```bash
+   curl -fsSL https://nsyte.run/get/install.sh | bash
+   ```
+
+2. Generate the CI credential:
+   ```bash
+   nsyte ci
+   ```
+   This will guide you through connecting a NIP-46 bunker (e.g. Amber) and output an `nbunksec1...` string. The credential is shown only once.
+
+3. Add the `nbunksec1...` value as the `NSITE_NBUNKSEC` variable in GitLab CI/CD settings (Settings > CI/CD > Variables). Mark it as **Protected** and **Masked**.
+
+#### Configured Relays and Servers
+
+The deploy job publishes to these relays:
+- `wss://relay.ditto.pub`
+- `wss://relay.nsite.lol`
+- `wss://relay.dreamith.to`
+- `wss://relay.primal.net`
+
+And uploads blobs to these Blossom servers:
+- `https://blossom.primal.net`
+- `https://blossom.ditto.pub`
+- `https://blossom.dreamith.to`
+
+The `--use-fallback-relays` and `--use-fallback-servers` flags also include nsyte's built-in defaults for broader coverage. The `--fallback "/index.html"` flag enables SPA client-side routing.
+
+#### Credential Rotation
+
+To rotate the nsite credential:
+1. Revoke the old bunker connection in your signer app
+2. Run `nsyte ci` again to generate a new `nbunksec1...` string
+3. Update the `NSITE_NBUNKSEC` variable in GitLab CI/CD settings

+### Color Moments (Kind 3367)
+
+**Author:** Chad Curtis
+**Spec:** https://gitlab.com/chad.curtis/espy/-/blob/main/NIP.md
+**App:** https://espy.you
+
+Color palette posts capturing 3-6 colors from a beautiful moment, optionally accompanied by an emoji and layout preference. Supports horizontal, vertical, grid, star, checkerboard, and diagonal stripe layouts. A form of pre-verbal visual communication through color and emotion.
+
+### Geocaching (Kinds 37516, 7516)
+
+**Author:** Chad Curtis
+**Spec:** https://gitlab.com/chad.curtis/treasures/-/blob/main/NIP-GC.md
+**App:** https://treasures.to
+
+NIP-GC defines geocaching on Nostr. Kind 37516 (addressable) is a geocache listing with location (geohash), difficulty/terrain scores, size, and type. Kind 7516 is a found log recording a successful visit. The spec also covers comment logs (kind 1111 via NIP-22), verified finds with cryptographic proof (kind 7517), and cache retirement.
+
+### Personal Letters (Kind 8211)
+
+**Author:** Chad Curtis
+**Spec:** https://gitlab.com/chad.curtis/lief/-/blob/main/NIP.md
+**App:** https://lief.to
+
+NIP-44 encrypted personal letters with visual stationery, hand-drawn stickers, decorative frames, and custom fonts. Letters render as 5:4 landscape postcards. The privacy model is intentionally postcard-like: sender/recipient metadata is visible, content is encrypted.
+
+### Weather Station (Kinds 4223, 16158)
+
+**Author:** Sam Thomson
+**Spec:** https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/2163
+**App:** https://weather.shakespeare.wtf
+**Firmware:** https://github.com/samthomson/weather-station
+
+Kind 16158 (replaceable) describes a weather station's configuration: name, geohash location, elevation, power source, connectivity, and sensor inventory. Kind 4223 (regular) carries individual sensor readings as 3-parameter tags `[sensor_type, value, model]`, enabling historical queries and cross-station comparison. Each station has its own keypair.
+
+### Blobbi Virtual Pet (Kinds 31124, 14919, 14920, 14921, 11125)
+
+**Author:** Danifra
+**Spec:** https://github.com/Danidfra/nostr-pet/blob/production/NIP.md
+**App:** https://nostr-pet.vercel.app
+**See also:** [Blobbi tag schema](docs/blobbi/blobbi-tag-schema.md) (Ditto-specific integration details)
+
+NIP-BB defines a virtual pet lifecycle on Nostr. Kind 31124 (addressable) holds the current pet state across three stages (egg, baby, adult) with stats, appearance, and personality traits. Kind 14919 logs individual interactions, kind 14920 records breeding events, kind 14921 stores immutable lifecycle records, and kind 11125 (replaceable) holds the owner's profile with coins, achievements, and inventory.

 /**
  * BlobbiCompanionVisual
- *

  * Visual component for rendering the companion Blobbi.
- * Supports external eye offset control for custom gaze behavior.
+ *
+ * Architecture:
+ * - Outer shell: handles per-frame updates (float, shadow, drag state) — rerenders freely
+ * - Float wrapper: owns translateY alignment + JS float offset (inline transform)
+ * - Sway wrapper: owns CSS rotation animation only (animate-blobbi-sway)
+ *   Kept separate from float wrapper so CSS @keyframes don't override the
+ *   inline translateY, which would make Blobbi float above the ground.
+ * - Inner MemoizedBlobbiVisual: renders the actual SVG — only rerenders when visual inputs change
+ * - Eye gaze is driven imperatively via ref (no React rerenders for gaze)

- * BlobbiBabyVisual - Reusable component for rendering Blobbi babies
+ * BlobbiBabyVisual — Visual wrapper for rendering Blobbi babies.
  *
- * Uses the baby-blobbi module for SVG resolution and customization.
- * Handles awake vs sleeping states automatically.
- * Eyes always track the mouse cursor in real-time.
+ * Responsibilities:
+ *   - Owns the container ref for eye hooks to query SVG DOM
+ *   - Runs useBlobbiEyes (blink RAF loop, optional mouse tracking)
+ *   - Runs useExternalEyeOffset (companion gaze RAF loop)
+ *   - Applies reaction CSS classes (sway/bounce) in page mode
+ *   - Delegates SVG rendering to BlobbiBabySvgRenderer
+ *
+ * Render modes:
+ *   - 'page' (default): Mouse tracking enabled, reaction classes applied here.
+ *   - 'companion': Mouse tracking disabled (gaze via ref), reaction classes
+ *     suppressed (applied by outer companion wrapper instead).
