Camp Commissary — 45 seconds Right now a 🏕️ AI build lives for exactly one night. You ship in thirty minutes, everyone votes, and then it's a row on a leaderboard. Two seasons in, that's 158 builds we've thrown away. Camp Commissary turns them into stock. A builder lists what they shipped as a seed — not a product, a starting point — and sells the build log, the export, or a single run. Anyone can fork it, and the original builder gets credited permanently plus 5% of whatever the fork earns. Builder keeps 80%, camp takes 15%. Not everything gets in. Two-thirds of our builds don't clear the bar today, and that's the point — it's a shelf, not an archive. The league doesn't change. No wallet, no checkout, nothing to pay before you compete. The thirty-minute window is exactly what it was. The archive stops being a graveyard and becomes inventor

Repo facts to start from: - Next.js + TypeScript App Router under `src/` (`src/app`, `src/components`, `src/lib`) - `db/`, `docs/`, `scripts/` - `pnpm-lock.yaml` — use **pnpm**, not npm - Live product: seasons, episodes, submissions, voting, builder profiles, rules, partnership, contact - Voice: camping / 🏕️ AI. New storefront name: **Camp Commissary** (or **The Outfitter**). Do not rebrand the whole league. Do not invent a token, memecoin, or “$401K store.” “401” means: - **HTTP 401 / x401-shaped identity challenge** for gated agent/human access - **x402 Payment Required** as the machine checkout layer for run/download - Humans still check out with Stripe (or a Stripe-shaped stub if keys are missing) ## Phase 0 — explore, then plan 1. Fork the repo to the current GitHub user/org. Clone the fork. Create branch `feat/commissary`. 2. Read the whole tree before editing: schema, auth, episode windows, submit/vote flows, build detail pages, builder profiles, contact/partnership. 3. Write `docs/COMMISSARY.md` with: - current data model (tables/fields) - files you will touch - proposed schema additions - route map - what stays identical for the 8:30–9:00 PM CST prize window 4. Only then implement. Match existing patterns, naming, UI, and auth. No drive-by refactors. No new CSS framework unless the repo already has one. ## Product rules (non-negotiable) - The 30-minute prize window stays sacred. No wallet, no Stripe, no x402 required to submit or vote. - Anyone can still build without an account. Account still required for prize eligibility and for selling/buying. - One submission per builder per episode still holds for the prize lane. - Do not auto-list every build in the store. Listing is explicit + must pass a quality bar. - Builds are sold as **seeds**, not “production SaaS.” Copy must say that. - Revenue split (encode in schema even if payouts are manual at first): - builder 80% - camp 15% - parent fork 5% (0% if no parent) - Contact form must actually work or be clearly replaced. Do not ship a fake “demo form that doesn’t send.” ## Phase 1 — durable build object Extend the build/submission model (migration in `db/` using whatever the repo already uses): ```
