Closes the admin/founder asymmetry without breaking the trust model: only the
founder authors the crew event, so only they add members — but an admin can now
publicly *vouch* for a join-request, and the founder ratifies with one click.
Protocol (SkateSpots-native kind 9087, regular event):
- e-tags the join-request, a-tags the crew, p-tags the requester (role
"requester") and the founder (so it hits the founder's bell).
- Clients keep only endorsements authored by a real admin of the endorsed crew
and dedupe one-per-admin-per-request (no credibility inflation).
- New parseCrewEndorsement + CrewEndorsement type; documented in NIP.md.
Hooks:
- useEndorseJoinRequest (admin publishes an endorsement, admin-gated).
- useJoinRequestEndorsements: batch-fetch endorsements for all visible requests
in ONE #e query, grouped per request, admin-verified per crew.
- useCrewNotifications attaches endorsements to each request entry.
UX (JoinRequestCard):
- Founder: primary becomes "Approve & add" when vouched, with a vouch strip
(stacked admin avatars + "Vouched by Rider +1 more") as social proof.
- Admin: the old dead-end "Only the founder can add members" becomes a real
"Vouch for them" action, then a "Vouched — waiting on the founder" state,
plus a one-line explainer so the path isn't a mystery.
- Endorsements enrich the existing request card (no duplicate notification).
Build clean, no console errors. Not deployed.

Part A — Sponsor picker:
- CrewSponsorPicker searches the shop directory and emits a 30017 coordinate
so founders select a sponsoring shop instead of pasting a raw coordinate.
- Wired into CrewForm, replacing the raw coordinate input.
Part B — Notifiable join-requests (kind 31969):
- New addressable join-request event p-tagged to founder + admins, making the
request→approve direction symmetric with invites (surfaced in the bell, not
buried in a DM inbox).
- useCrewInvites: useSendJoinRequest, useIncomingJoinRequests,
useApproveJoinRequest (founder adds member), useDismissJoinRequest (local).
- CrewRequestToJoin now publishes the structured event.
- JoinRequestCard (Add to crew / Dismiss) wired into NotificationBell and
counted in the unread badge.
- Documented kind 31969 in NIP.md alongside invites.
