Big feature batch driven by the super-audit findings and the user's follow-up requests. Schema migration 021 (folded into schema.sql Section 13): - forum_threads + polymorphic comments table keyed on (entity_type, entity_id). Entity types: forum_thread, proposal, incident, policy. Trigger maintains forum_threads.comment_count and last_comment_at. - space_tiers per-space with monthly_price_cents, billing_cadence, is_system, sort_order. Trigger seeds plus/basic/associate on every space INSERT and backfills existing spaces. space_members.tier_id FK added and backfilled from the legacy enum value. - space_role_labels (rename/recolor built-in roles per space). space_custom_roles + space_member_custom_roles for non-privileged extra labels. RLS gates by admin/board. - space_invites: multi-code invites with expires_at, max_uses, uses_count, is_enabled. Legacy spaces.invite_code backfilled as a permanent enabled invite. - secrets.encrypted_value bytea + encryption_version. Secrets RLS tightened. New comms_channels INSERT policy: any member can create; default channels are protected from deletion. - knowledge_base.render_markdown boolean (default true). Secrets encryption-at-rest: - AES-256-GCM in lib/secrets/crypto.ts. Master key from SECRETS_ENCRYPTION_KEY env (64 hex chars). - New revealSecret(id) server action: only path to plaintext, writes secret.revealed to activity_log. - /ops/page.tsx no longer selects value or encrypted_value on the list endpoint - the original screenshot bug where ciphertext was already in the page bundle before "Reveal" is fixed. UI: - /forum index, /forum/new, /forum/[id]. Pin/lock/delete actions for admin/board. - CommentThread component embedded on /proposals/[id], /incidents/[id], /policies/[slug]. Markdown rendering via react-markdown + remark-gfm. - /comms sidebar: inline "+ New channel" form. - /ops KB: row click opens markdown-rendering viewer modal. - /settings: new Tiers tab and Invites tab. Inline price edit and archive/delete on tiers; copy/enable/disable/delete on invites. - AtlasLogo replaces the terminal icon on the landing nav and footer. public/logo.svg wired as the favicon in app/layout.tsx metadata. - Sidebar has a Forum nav link. Server actions added: - lib/actions/forum.ts, comms.ts, tiers.ts, roles.ts, invites.ts. - lib/actions/secrets.ts rewritten with updateSecret + revealSecret. Auth flow: - joinSpace honors codes from space_invites first (enabled, expiry, use cap), falls back to legacy spaces.invite_code, increments uses_count on success. Env: - SECRETS_ENCRYPTION_KEY documented in .env.example and set on the Droplet's /opt/hackerspace-ops/.env.production. README: live site link added (https://hackerspace.sh). 266/266 unit tests pass. Production build clean. Migration 021 will be applied on the next deploy via /opt/hackerspace-ops/deploy.sh's idempotent migration runner.
hackerspace-management
A multi-tenant operating system for hackerspaces, makerspaces, and member-run shops. One installation can host many independent spaces. Each space owns its own members, tasks, projects, payments, knowledge base, proposals, incidents, policies, and chat channels. All data access is enforced at the database with row-level security.
- Live site: https://hackerspace.sh
- Source: https://github.com/virgilvox/hackerspace-management
Features
- Members and tiers. Roster, tiers (Plus, Basic, Associate), roles (admin, board, treasurer, member, associate), state (current, late, inactive, unverified), per-member skills, certifications, and badges.
- Tasks and projects. Project boards, task assignment, status, area tagging, priority, comments.
- Operations. Knowledge base, secrets vault, area leads, equipment, maintenance log.
- Payments and financials. Per-member payment ledger, integration credentials per space, exports, monthly financial summary.
- Governance. Proposals with vote tracking and expiry, incident reports, policy library, area-of-interest configuration.
- Communications. Multi-channel chat with realtime delivery.
- Recruitment. Public-facing recruitment page per space.
- API. PostgREST-generated REST for every table, gated by RLS. Optional webhooks with HMAC-signed deliveries.

| Layer | Technology |
|---|---|
| App | Next.js 16, React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind v4, shadcn/ui |
| Data | PostgreSQL 17 via self-hosted Supabase |
| Auth | Supabase GoTrue, JWT, email + password |
| Realtime | Supabase Realtime (Phoenix channels over WebSocket) |

Quick start (local development)
Requirements: Node.js 20 or later, pnpm 10 or later, Docker (for the local Supabase CLI), git.
git clone https://github.com/virgilvox/hackerspace-management.git
cd hackerspace-management
pnpm install
cp .env.example .env.local
Edit .env.local with values from your local Supabase project (see docs/LOCAL_DEV.md to start one in seconds using the Supabase CLI), then:
pnpm dev
Open http://localhost:3000, sign up, create a space, you land on the dashboard.
Detailed local setup: docs/LOCAL_DEV.md.
Production deployment
The supported production target is a single DigitalOcean Droplet running self-hosted Supabase plus the Next.js app behind Caddy with Let's Encrypt. No managed Supabase, no third-party application data store.
End-to-end guide: docs/DEPLOY_DO_SELFHOSTED.md.
Summary:
- Provision a Droplet (4 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 80 GB disk recommended).
- Attach a block volume mounted at
/mnt/datafor the Postgres data directory and backups. - Point DNS A records for your domain,
www,supabase,studioat the Droplet. - Run the bootstrap script in
scripts/to install Docker, Supabase, Node, Caddy, the app, the systemd unit, backup cron, and the deploy hook. - Push to
main. GitHub Actions runsdeploy.shon the Droplet over SSH: pull, install, apply pending migrations, build, restart.
The deploy script is idempotent and tracked: every numbered migration in scripts/ is recorded in public._migrations_applied. New migrations are applied automatically on push.
Database
scripts/schema.sql is the canonical, idempotent, full schema. Run it once on a fresh Supabase project. Subsequent changes are added as numbered migrations (scripts/021_*.sql, 022_*.sql, etc.) and applied incrementally.
