Reconciles the implementation against the final MVP brief:
- Data model: rename users.provider to auth_provider and
users.subscription_status to subscription, matching the brief's schema
exactly (id, email, auth_provider, subscription, created_at). External
API field names are unchanged.
- Suggestions: replace the starter list with the brief's eight examples.
- Instructions: personality updated to calm, warm, intelligent, curious,
respectful, pedagogical — never judging, manipulative, dramatic,
overly positive, overconfident or preaching. Added per-reply goals:
feel personal, be calm, instill safety, give hope without promising
results, deepen thinking, and always contain at least one genuinely
new thought or question. Added the conversation outcome goal (greater
clarity, greater calm, a new perspective, increased trust in one's own
ability) and 'not a chatbot for general questions' to positioning.
- Paywall transition example updated to the brief's wording ('I'm
starting to see some recurring patterns… Unlock Premium to continue.').
- Knowledge base completed per the brief: communication models
(perceptual positions, observation vs interpretation, chunking,
backtracking, boundaries), reflection exercises (meaning audit,
meta-question, five frames, observer replay, well-formed outcome,
evening question) and a question library organized by purpose.
Appreciation in the Lift step must be anchored in what the user
actually expressed; the Challenge step never preaches.
- README: product principle (one user, one conversation, one analysis,
one recommendation), the removal rule, design words per the brief,
Definition of Done (7 steps), V2 not-now list (journal, saved
insights, community, coaches, courses, voice), and a closed-beta plan
for 20-50 testers with what the minimal data model can already
measure.

Refines the product philosophy in the system instructions, the knowledge
base and the README:
- Meet users where they are: never assume the user is struggling — some
seek change or guidance, others are simply curious and want to grow.
- Human Experience Doctrine: every user should feel seen, respected,
understood, capable and hopeful. The system must never create
dependency or imply it alone has the answers.
- Conversation philosophy: every conversation follows a four-step arc —
acknowledge (reflect meaning, not words), explore (discover
perspectives together, no interrogating or over-analyzing), lift
(concrete, credible praise of resources and strengths — no generic
compliments), challenge (leave at least one new perspective).
- Personality: experienced coach, calm mentor, skilled teacher, wise
conversation partner — never therapist, salesperson, preacher or guru.
A thoughtful mentor rather than a stage performance.
- Educational philosophy: teach the user how to reflect so they
gradually need the tool less.
- Roadmap in README: V1 is person-to-Semantika only; reflection groups
(V2) and coaches/live sessions/courses (V3) come after the core
product is strong. Community is deliberately absent from V1.

Applies the brand platform consistently across the codebase:
- Name: Semantika everywhere — app name/slug/scheme, bundle ids
(com.semantika.app), workspace package names, CDK stack, Cognito
domain prefix, secret name (semantika/app), database name, product
ids (semantika_monthly/_yearly), and storage keys.
- System instructions: Semantika is positioned as an intelligent
reflection partner — not therapy, not self-help, not a course. It
starts by exploring how the user interprets their situation and
supports reflection and perspective-taking rather than delivering
finished answers. Tone rules added: never judging, dramatic,
overenthusiastic or preaching; always calm, curious, clear,
respectful, structured, thoughtful.
- Honest claims: instructions and knowledge base now explicitly frame
neurosemantics and NLP as models and inspiration for reflection, not
scientifically established methods — including a note that several
NLP claims lack support in controlled studies. Claiming or implying
proven effects is forbidden.
- README: brand section (position, promise, mission, vision,
positioning, tone, design words) and updated product philosophy.

Replaces the hardcoded message limit with a model-driven paywall and
removes registration before the first question:
- Onboarding: the app opens directly into the chat. Dynamic conversation
starters are served by GET /suggestions (services/api/suggestions.json),
updatable with a deploy — no app release needed. Guests chat via
POST /guest/chat, identified by an app-generated device id; sign-in
moves to the paywall, where a purchase must attach to an account.
- Free experience: the model runs in discovery mode — follow-up
questions, pattern identification, visible understanding — building an
analysis without delivering the full solution.
- Intelligent paywall: the model returns structured output (reply +
analysis_ready). Only when the problem is described, the information is
sufficient and an action plan is ready does it write a calm transition
and pause the conversation. Manufactured urgency, emotional pressure,
fake readiness and mid-answer stops are explicitly forbidden.
- Premium: on unlock the app resends the transcript and the backend
immediately delivers the full analysis, strategies and exercises, then
the dialogue continues without restriction.
- The old FREE_MESSAGE_LIMIT becomes MESSAGE_CAP (default 200/30 days),
kept purely as an abuse backstop — it is not the paywall.
- WelcomeScreen removed; the app is now two views (Chat, Paywall).

Ersätter den tidigare webappen på denna branch med ett fokuserat monorepo:
- apps/mobile: Expo/React Native med tre vyer (Welcome, Chat, Paywall),
Cognito hosted UI-inloggning (Apple/Google/e-post) och In-App
Purchase/Play Billing via en gemensam purchases-modul.
- services/api: en enda Lambda-backend — OpenAI Responses API med
Markdown-kunskapsbas som systeminstruktioner, free tier-gräns i
PostgreSQL (HTTP 402 -> paywall) och kvittoverifiering bakom ett
delat PaymentProvider-interface (Apple/Google, Stripe kan läggas
till för webb senare).
- infra: AWS CDK-stack med API Gateway (JWT-authorizer), Lambda,
Cognito, Aurora Serverless v2 och Secrets Manager.
- db/migrations: minimal datamodell (users + usage), inga
konversationer sparas.
- GitHub Actions: CI (lint, typecheck, test) och deploy från main.
