The card showed the placeholder (now initials) even when the npub had a photo:
useAuthor missed profiles that only live on the community relay and could drop
a profile its strict schema rejected. Card pages now use a tolerant
useCardProfile() that reads kind 0 via querySkateContent (community + user
relays) and JSON.parses leniently. Also: useAuthor now queries the community
relay as its own parallel branch (a flaky relay in the group used to reject the
whole batch); and '_@domain' NIP-05 no longer renders a lone '@'.
Verified by rendering a real profile's card headlessly.
Design: the card read like a spec sheet (16 competing elements, 5-6px type).
Rebuilt as an editorial credential:
- Left full-height portrait panel; right column = brand, ONE huge name, a single
identity line (style / level / local), nip05, crew monograms + witnessed
badges, and a clean QR verify stub. Dropped the tiny stats row, npub clutter,
'Powered by Nostr' filler and the 'SKATER LICENSE' chrome.
- Same system applied to Park / Crew / Event fronts; typed-up back side.
Engine: the studio preview and /card/:npub now render the canvas PNG, so there
is a SINGLE renderer (src/lib/riderCardCanvas.ts) — no React/canvas drift. The
old React card components + CardQr are deleted. Holographic is now a canvas
sheen. Also fixed several fillText calls missing an x-coord.
- Custom accent colour (native picker) overrides the theme accent via
--ss-accent in CSS + the canvas palette.
- Optional personal logo/crest (Blossom upload) shown next to the name.
- Printable back side (RiderCardBack React + drawCardBack canvas); Print renders
both sides, and the preview + public card can flip.
- Park passes enforce valid-thru: passExpiry() drives an EXPIRED badge on the
card and verify page; the input is now a date picker.
- Card schema -> v:3 (accent/logo/back). i18n; NIP.md + AGENTS.
- Card shows crew crests (kind 35006 memberships), a local badge (skater
profile location/home_spot), and Lab role chips (kinds 35001-35014) — all
DERIVED LIVE, so a card can't claim a role/crew the skater doesn't have.
- Rendered in the React card + the canvas export (print/PNG); local/crews as
text lines, roles as blue chips.
- Per-facet show toggles in the editor; card schema bumped to v2 so the new
flags default ON for cards saved before them.
- Also fixed: verifyUrl wasn't passed to the canvas renderer (QR fell back to
the profile path).
- i18n cardUi.facets.* / cardUi.roles.*; NIP.md + AGENTS.md updated.
- Publish the Rider Card as an addressable event (kind 32271, d=rider-card) and
hydrate the editor from it, so customization persists across devices.
- New routes: /card/:npub (public read-only card) and /verify/:naddr
(signature check + park venue binding).
- Park Access Cards can bind to the issuer's own spot (a tag 30818:...) and the
verify page confirms the issuer owns the venue.
- QR on the card (+ canvas export) now encodes the verify URL; the real QR
renders in the React card too (was a placeholder / broken profile path).
- Extracted shared card visuals to src/components/RiderCard.tsx; helpers in
src/lib/riderCard.ts; hooks useRiderCard/useRiderBadges.
- Documented in NIP.md; i18n cardUi namespace (EN/ES); smoke test covers the
new routes.
