• Homepage intent router (8 cards) + Pattaya network hub linking all TimPaemi properties.
• pa-network grid on every build-v2 page footer zone; guides hub updated.
• Scripts: write-training-holiday-guide, inject-cheapest-price-table, export-venue-outreach, inject-homepage-seo, sync-guides-hub.
• Asset version 431 -> 432.

Guide pages never loaded venue.css, so ranked cards and TL;DR blocks were effectively unstyled. Round 35 adds full guide-body CSS to styles.css and polishes all ranked guide markup.

• TL;DR blocks: cyan gradient panel, proper list typography, no bogus Chapter counters.
• Venue cards: grid layout, hover lift, mono meta, pill tags — now in styles.css (was orphaned in venue.css).
• Section headings before card grids use guide-rank-section styling instead of editorial chapter H2.
• Compare CTA, related guides, and FAQ blocks get dedicated guide-* classes.
• polish-ranked-guide-body.js strips inline styles and normalizes HTML across 18 pages.
• Asset version 430 -> 431.

Round 33 only swapped nav/fonts; this round rebuilds every ranked guide hero to match the editorial template: accent headline, rich kicker, hero-meta line, and clean section structure.

• migrate-legacy-guides-chrome.js v2: per-slug accent H1, kicker, hero-meta (replaces venue-hero-meta chips).
• Guides hub rebuilt: Pattaya gym guides. with accent-cyan, hero outside broken nested wrappers.
• 17 ranked guides + hub updated; 3 editorial guides unchanged.
• Asset version 429 -> 430.

Ranked/list guides now share the same shell as Round 32 editorial guides: mobile nav, deferred analytics, self-hosted fonts, and large hero typography — while keeping venue cards, TL;DR, and FAQs intact.

• New script: migrate-legacy-guides-chrome.js — 17 ranked guides + /guides/ hub upgraded.
• Preserves cat-venue-grid rankings, favorite buttons, FAQ blocks, and existing JSON-LD.
• Fixes duplicate section wrappers and split-hero markup from the old venue-hero layout.
• Editorial guides (English MT, stay-and-train, day pass) unchanged.
• Added to AGENTS.md build gate and PUSH pipeline.
• Asset version 428 -> 429.

Ships the three Codex-flagged long-tail guides that were scripted but never published, plus a Walking Street distance/Soi reference section for tourists staying Beach Road.

• New guide: /guides/english-speaking-muay-thai-pattaya/ — 10 Tier-A English-fluent camps with venue links + FAQ schema.
• New guide: /guides/muay-thai-camps-with-accommodation-pattaya/ — 8 stay-and-train camps with pricing tiers and booking checklist.
• New guide: /guides/gym-day-pass-pattaya/ — 12 walk-in gyms with day/weekly pass pricing.
• Deepened /guides/best-gyms-near-walking-street-pattaya/ — walking minutes from Bali Hai Pier + Soi Diana/Buakhao/LK Metro reference.
• Guides hub updated with new cards + tldr links. Sitemap auto-includes new slugs from disk.
• Asset version 427 -> 428.

Full Lighthouse audit (homepage + venue). Round 31 targets LCP, console errors, color contrast, and link distinguishability without changing editorial content or URLs.

• GA4 moved out of <head> — gtag + analytics.js load deferred at end of body so they no longer compete with LCP font/CSS.
• Inline nav/scroll/clock scripts consolidated into cached /site-ui.js (one file, defer, CSP-safe). Removes ~3 duplicate inline scripts per page.
• Font preload trimmed to Space Grotesk only (LCP display face). Inter + JetBrains load on demand via CSS @font-face.
• Font URLs in styles.css synced to ASSET_VERSION on every build. JetBrains Mono uses font-display: optional.
• Button contrast fixed: btn-secondary/btn-tertiary now pass WCAG AA. u-cyan / venue-source links underlined for link-in-text-block.
• CSP updated for Cloudflare Web Analytics beacon (fixes console CSP violation). favicon.svg served as static file. feed.json alternate link added.
• Asset version 426 -> 427.

The homepage verticals section was factually wrong ('four verticals') after the network expanded to 11. Round 29 rebuilds it as an accurate, scalable 11-tile network grid - one agency + ten verticals, each with its own tile.

• Headline updated: 'One agency. Four verticals.' -> 'One agency. Ten verticals.'
• Intro rewritten to reflect 10 editorial verticals + the flagship Pattaya Authority agency, not 4 sites.
• Grid expanded from 4 big cards to 11 compact network tiles with auto-fit layout (responsive: 1 col mobile, 2 col tablet, 3-4 col desktop). Each tile carries its vertical label, brand wordmark with accent dot, domain, and a one-line value prop.
• Tiles cycle through the four existing project-card accent colours (pink / yellow / cyan / mint) for visual rhythm without new CSS classes per vertical.
• New tiles: TimPaemi (parent brand), Pattaya School Guide, Pattaya Coffee, Pattaya Villa Stream, Pattaya Medical, PattayaPets, Pattaya Vehicle Rentals. Existing four (Authority, Gym, Restaurant Guide, Visa Help) retained.
• Asset version 424 -> 425.

Pattaya Authority network adopted a unified tagline across all owned sites. Round 28 applies the network footer prompt: the tagline appears under the brand wordmark in every footer, in Organization.slogan in the homepage JSON-LD, and the self-link is removed from the Projects sister-site list (a site should not link to itself in its network list).

• New network tagline: 'Built in Pattaya. For Pattaya.' rendered under the pattaya.gym wordmark on every page in a mono cyan strapline.
• Organization JSON-LD on the homepage now carries the slogan field for schema-graph recognition.
• Footer Projects column went from 11 items to 10 - the self-link (Pattaya Gym -> /) is removed per the canonical Pattaya Authority spec. The 10 external sister sites still display in the user-specified order.
• Applied across every surface: build-v2.js footer(), rebuild-tool-stubs.js, build-compare-page.js, build-plan-page.js, write-changelog.js, homepage index.html, and the 19 static legacy guide + search pages.
• New .footer-slogan CSS to fit the existing dark-theme palette.
• Asset version 423 -> 424.

The Pattaya Authority empire network grew from 8 to 11 sites. Round 27 propagates the full canonical 11-site list across every network reference on pattaya-gym.com - footer, Organization and Person JSON-LD sameAs, llms.txt, the about page, and the privacy page - with the correct authoritative labels.

• Three new sister sites added everywhere: pattaya-medical.com (Pattaya Medical), pattayapets.com (PattayaPets), pattaya-vehicle-rentals.com (Pattaya Vehicle Rentals).
• Label corrections to match the canonical list: 'Coffee Guide' -> 'Pattaya Coffee', 'Pattaya Stream' -> 'Pattaya Villa Stream', 'TimPaemi (parent)' -> 'TimPaemi', 'Restaurant Guide' -> 'Pattaya Restaurant Guide', 'School Guide' -> 'Pattaya School Guide', 'Visa Help' -> 'Pattaya Visa Help'.
• Footer alignment: the Projects column would have dominated the footer with 11 entries stacked vertically. New .footer-projects CSS lays the list out as 2 columns on desktop and stacks cleanly to 1 column on mobile - footer reads balanced on every viewport.
• Updated across every surface: build-v2.js (footer + about + privacy + Person sameAs), rebuild-tool-stubs.js, build-compare-page.js, build-plan-page.js, write-changelog.js, homepage (Organization sameAs + footer), llms.txt, and the 19 static legacy guide and search pages.
• Asset version 422 -> 423.

Round 25 audit (AUDIT_BRAND_MOBILE_DESKTOP_2026.md) flagged one real P1 gap and a brand-asset issue. Round 26 closes both, plus the polish items.

• P1 - Mobile menu. Below 900 px the site had no navigation at all - only the brand logo and the Find-a-gym CTA were visible. Now: a hamburger button appears next to the CTA on mobile, opening a full-screen overlay menu (12 links + CTA), accessible (aria-expanded, aria-controls, ESC to close, focus management), with reduced-motion respected. Generated by nav() so all 260 pages get it from one source.
• P2 - Square brand logo. Organization JSON-LD now points to /brand-logo.png - a clean 512x512 pink P on a rounded black square that matches the favicon, instead of the rectangular OG image. Better Google Knowledge Panel rendering.
• P2 - JetBrains Mono is now preloaded alongside Inter and Space Grotesk; no more flash of substitute mono font in the nav, marquees and eyebrows.
• P2 - .trust-pill.is-link gets min-height 44 px so the linkable variants meet the WCAG 2.5.5 target-size guideline on small phones.
• P3 - manifest.json polished with description, id, scope, categories, lang, dir for richer PWA install / OS integration.
• Asset version 421 -> 422.

Round 24 added FAQ sections and FAQPage schema to the 15 sport category pages. Round 25 completes that work by extending it to the 6 neighbourhood / area pages, which are real landing pages for queries such as gyms in Jomtien.

• New data/area-faqs.js: 24 hand-authored Q&A pairs across all 6 areas (Jomtien, Naklua, Pratamnak, East Pattaya / Darkside, Central Pattaya, Sattahip) - whether the area suits a training base, what sports it is best for, how to get around, and who it best suits.
• Each area page now renders the same accessible FAQ accordion (native HTML details element, no JavaScript) and emits FAQPage JSON-LD. Structured Q&A now covers every category page, every area page, and every guide.
• Answers are grounded in the per-area editorial content already on the site - accurate, no fabrication.
• Asset version 420 -> 421.

Extended every sport category page with a hand-authored FAQ section and FAQPage structured data. Category pages are where head-term search intent lands (for example 'muay thai pattaya'), and a structured FAQ is the single most effective format for being quoted by AI answer engines such as ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity.

• New data/category-faqs.js: around 50 hand-authored, genuinely useful question-and-answer pairs across all 15 sport categories - cost, beginners, booking, seasons, areas and category-specific questions.
• Each category page now renders an accessible FAQ accordion (native HTML details element, no JavaScript) and emits FAQPage JSON-LD, making the Q&A eligible for FAQ rich results and easy for AI crawlers to extract and cite.
• Honest content - no fabricated prices (rates that go stale are never republished); answers point to the venue pages and the Plan My Trip tool for specifics.
• New .faq-list / .faq-item CSS for the dark-theme accordion.
• Asset version 419 -> 420.

Extended the site with a genuine new tool. /plan-my-trip/ had been an honest 'being rebuilt' stub since Round 7; it is now a real, working, client-side trip planner built on the 158-venue dataset.

• New scripts/build-plan-page.js generates /plan-my-trip/ as a real tool: the visitor answers four questions (sport, trip length, budget, travel style) and gets a tailored plan - a ranked base venue, a training structure keyed to trip length, complementary venues for rest days, and practical notes.
• Honest by design - it uses only data the venue set genuinely supports: category, price tier, editor picks, and three reliable tag clusters (family-friendly, stay-and-train, drop-in). The free-text area field is messy (130+ variants) so it is deliberately not used as a filter.
• Pure client-side, no external dependencies; bookmarkable and shareable ?sport=&length=&budget=&style= URLs; ranks on fit only - no paid placements.
• The page is now indexable (it was noindex) and is back in llms.txt and the sitemap. rebuild-tool-stubs.js no longer overwrites it with a stub.
• Asset version 418 -> 419.

Post-Round-21 self-audit. The site passed every structural check (260 pages, 0 truncation, 0 asset-version drift, 0 duplicate IDs). Two real issues remained: robots.txt was still advertising stale legacy sitemaps, and the new /sports/ hub was not in the primary navigation.

• Sitemaps - robots.txt advertised 7 sitemaps, but 6 were stale legacy files (sitemap-index / -venues / -categories / -areas / -guides / -core), last generated 11+ days ago by the retired build-extras.js. Google was being fed stale, conflicting sitemap data. robots.txt now advertises only the single live sitemap.xml (256 URLs, regenerated every build); the 6 stale files are deleted.
• verify-deploy.js now fails the build if robots.txt advertises any sitemap file that does not exist on disk - so this class of drift cannot recur.
• Nav - the /sports/ all-categories hub (added in Round 21) is now in the primary navigation on every generated page, not just the footer.
• Asset version 417 -> 418.

Codex Round 21 audit found 0 critical issues but flagged release-state drift as the top problem: asset version, font preloads, status.json, the changelog and API metadata did not all agree. Round 21 makes every version marker consistent and closes the rest of the P1/P2 findings.

• P1-1 Version - One canonical asset version (417) across build-v2.js, every generated page, font preloads, status.json, API endpoints and the changelog. Round 20's intended 416 bump did not fully propagate (font preloads were stranded on 414/416); Round 21 corrects it. verify-deploy.js now fails the build on any stale ?v= asset reference.
• P1-3 Tools - Find My Coach, Plan My Trip and Favorites are honest roadmap pages, so they are now noindex,follow and removed from llms.txt core tools and the sitemap until they ship as real tools.
• P1-4 Trust - Softened over-strong verification copy ('every phone dialed', '100% hand-checked') into accurate language that matches the data.
• P1-5 Linking - New /sports/ hub links all 15 categories so BJJ and every other sport is reachable from the homepage crawl graph, not just the sitemap.
• P2 - Fixed dangling-pipe category-area titles, enriched short meta descriptions, unified the sister-network footer across 20 pages, removed a duplicate compare-status live region, taught the search open-now filter to honor weekday + seasonal hours, trimmed 3 unused third-party origins from the CSP, and upgraded 7 venue links to HTTPS.
• New scripts/write-data-endpoints.js regenerates the JSON API + feed on every build so machine-readable freshness never drifts again.
• Asset version 415 -> 417.

Self-audit v2 (SELF_AUDIT_2026_ROUND20.md) gave the site a clean bill of health: 0 html-validate errors across 259 pages, 551 JSON-LD blocks all valid, no broken internal links, no duplicate content. The only real gap was missing geo coordinates on 140 venues. Round 20 closes the biggest remaining items.

• Geo - Hand-plotted lat/lng for 39 well-known Pattaya landmarks (Fairtex, Sityodtong, Royal Cliff, Sanctuary of Truth, Cartoon Network Amazone, Phoenix Gold Golf, Siam Country Club, etc.). LocalBusiness geo coverage went from 18/158 (11%) to 55/158 (35%).
• Geo - New scripts/geocode-venues-v2.js with smarter 3-strategy Nominatim retry (name+area, name+Pattaya, area-centroid fallback) for filling more over time.
• F4.Desc - Wired truncateDesc(155) to venue and area page meta descriptions. 10 over-160 description warnings closed.
• F22.CSP - sync-csp-hashes.js now PRUNES obsolete inline-script hashes by default (4 unused hashes removed). --keep-obsolete flag preserves the legacy behaviour.
• F24.Analytics - 4 new GA4 custom events: share_venue (venue share button), compare_pick (compare selection change), filter_apply (search filter change, debounced), sister_site_click (outbound to any of the 7 sister sites).
• Asset version 415 -> 416.

Closed the biggest finding from the Round 19 self-audit: 4 of 7 TimPaemi sister sites had zero inbound links from pattaya-gym.com. Plus killed 22 orphan pages by adding a category cross-link matrix to area pages and an expanded footer "Site" column.

• F-Sister - Sister network now fully cross-linked: timpaemi.com, pattaya-authority.com, pattaya-restaurant-guide.com, pattayavisahelp.com, pattayastream.com, pattaya-coffee.com, pattaya-school-guide.com all linked from footer + Organization.sameAs + Person.sameAs + privacy + about + press pages + llms.txt + humans.txt.
• F08.1 - Area pages now include a "Browse this area by sport" matrix linking every existing /area/<a>/<sport>/ combination. Closes 15 orphan category-area pages.
• F08.1 - Footer "The site" column expanded with /compare/, /pattaya-sport-stats/, /changelog/, /privacy/, /press/, /add-your-gym/. Closes 7 utility-page orphans.
• F05.1 - truncateTitle() and truncateDesc() helpers added; auto-truncate at word boundary for venue/category/area/category-area pages. Caps titles at 65 chars, descs at 155.
• Self-audit script wrote SELF_AUDIT_2026_ROUND19.md with 71 findings before the round started.
• Asset version bumped 414 -> 415.

Two big engineering wins from the Round 17 Codex audit backlog. Removed every third-party font request and shrank the inline-style surface so a future strict CSP becomes realistic.

• F14.1 — Google Fonts removed from every page. Self-hosted Space Grotesk (variable), Inter (400/500/600/700), JetBrains Mono (500/600/700) in /fonts/ with font-display: swap. CSP no longer allowlists fonts.googleapis.com or fonts.gstatic.com.
• F10.1 — Inline style="..." count dropped from 11,212 to 4,905 (-56%) by adding 30+ utility classes covering the most-repeated patterns. Builds the foundation for removing 'unsafe-inline' from style-src in a future round.
• Privacy page updated to drop the "may self-host in future" caveat — fonts are now self-hosted.
• New /fonts/* immutable cache rule in _headers.
• verify-deploy.js still passes the hardened gate (NUL/BOM scan + sitemap URL check).
• Asset version bumped 413 -> 414.

Closed every P1 finding from the Codex Round 17 audit plus 10 quick P2 wins. The single biggest improvement: generated venue HTML went from 210 html-validate errors to 0 by replacing the regex Markdown converter with markdown-it.

• F02.1 — Replaced bespoke regex mdToHtml with markdown-it; generated venue HTML now passes html-validate cleanly (210 → 0 structural errors).
• F07.1 — Sitemap GUIDE_SLUGS is now derived from disk so the sitemap can no longer advertise URLs whose local files do not exist.
• F20.1 — New /privacy/ page: Google Analytics 4, localStorage keys, AI crawler policy, GDPR/PDPA rights, full disclosure.
• F21.1 — Softened every "updated weekly" / "within 7 days" claim across homepage, marquees, generated pages, methodology, and about. Honest copy matching actual rolling-verification cadence.
• F23.1 — Hardened verify-deploy.js: NUL/BOM scan now covers every text source file; every sitemap URL must resolve to a local file.
• F01.1 — Search "Open now" filter now parses real HH:MM windows against ICT.
• F01.2 — Fixed 2 venue Markdown front-matter category mismatches (ALFA → bjj, Rambaa → mma).
• F04.1 — Geo coordinates in LocalBusiness JSON-LD rounded to 6 decimals.
• F05.2 — robots.txt now explicitly allows /og/ so Google/Twitter can fetch per-venue OG images.
• F07.3 — Deleted stray extensionless junk files from repo root, added .wrangler/ to .gitignore.
• F12.1 — ARIA live regions on search stats and compare status.
• F12.2 — Visible 3px focus-visible outline on search filter selects.
• F19.2 — Added browsing-topics=() to Permissions-Policy.
• F20.2 — Replaced overstated "privacy-respecting" GA copy with precise statement linking to /privacy/.
• Asset version bumped 412 → 413.

The /compare/ page was the last remaining honest-stub tool from Round 7. Round 16 turns it into a real, fully-functional, client-side comparison tool — pick up to 4 venues, see them side-by-side across 12 attributes, share the URL.

• /compare/ now embeds a 158-venue summary JSON and renders a side-by-side comparison table on demand.
• Up to 4 venues compared at once (slots a/b/c/d) with bookmarkable, shareable ?a=&b=&c=&d= URLs.
• 12 comparison rows: name · editors-pick · sport · area · price · hours · phone · website · maps · tags · description · verified-date.
• 3 preset buttons (premium Muay Thai, hotel gyms, budget camps) for instant exploration.
• Web Share API + clipboard fallback on the Share button.
• rebuild-tool-stubs.js skips /compare/ now that it has its own real builder.
• Asset version bumped 411 → 412.

/pattaya-sport-stats/ was ~150 words of static bullets. Now it is a server-rendered SVG dashboard regenerated on every build — proof of breadth and transparency competitors do not have.

• 4 big stat tiles: venues / categories / areas / paid placements.
• Horizontal bar chart of 15 categories ranked by venue count (15-color accent rotation).
• Horizontal bar chart of 6 neighborhoods ranked by venue count.
• SVG donut chart of price-tier distribution (฿/฿฿/฿฿฿/฿฿฿฿) with legend.
• Verification-freshness breakdown (within 30 / 30-60 / older).
• 4 schema-completeness ring gauges (body / geo / phone / website).
• All inline SVG — no JS, no charting library, no external dependencies. Asset version 410 → 411.

Codex V3 P1-6 finding closed — every area page now has a real ~2000-word neighborhood guide instead of a sparse venue list. 6 areas covered in editorial depth.

• AREA_CONTENT map keyed by area slug: summary, intro, best-for, transport, landmarks, starter picks.
• areaPage() rewritten to render rich, opinionated neighborhood guides above the venue grid.
• 6 areas covered: Jomtien, Naklua, Pratamnak, Central Pattaya, East Pattaya, Sattahip.
• Sattahip page went from 104 words to ~2100 words — same uplift across all 6 areas.
• Channel-card h3/h4 markup mismatches from earlier rounds fixed across 5 variants.
• Asset version bumped 409 → 410.

Live operational signals on every venue page + cleaner social sharing + richer authorship signal for E-E-A-T.

• Live "Open now / Closed" pill on every venue page driven by data-hours-spec attribute and visitor local time.
• Recently-verified feed surfaces the freshest hand-checks at the top of the site.
• Web Share API button on every venue page with clipboard fallback for unsupported browsers.
• Person schema for Tim Paemi on /about/ — explicit author entity for E-E-A-T.
• Asset version bumped 408 → 409.

Sources, editor-pick badges, recently-viewed memory + machine-readable site state + operational tooling for the long tail.

• Per-venue Sources block populated from each venue's front-matter for full citation transparency.
• "Spot an error?" mailto link on every venue — explicit invitation to crowdsource corrections.
• Editor's Pick trust pill surfaces hand-selected favorites in the trust bar.
• Recently-viewed (localStorage, last 8) at the top of every venue page.
• /status.json — machine-readable site identity, build version, schema completeness, freshness, endpoints, policies.
• scripts/ping-sitemap.js — pings Google + Bing on every push.
• scripts/stale-venues.js — CSV report of venues whose verified date is > 30 days.
• Asset version bumped 407 → 408.

Per-venue verified-by-Tim badge, trust signals row, guide bylines, reading-time estimator, Pattaya local-time widget, print stylesheet, public changelog page (this one), larger footer version badge, /methodology/ cross-links from every ranking surface.

• Every venue page now shows "★ Verified by Tim · [date]" in the hero.
• Every venue + category + area page shows "Hand-checked · No paid placement · How we rank" trust pills.
• Guide pages display author byline + reading time + last-updated date.
• Footer shows live Pattaya time (ICT) — useful for tourists checking from abroad.
• Print stylesheet means venue pages print clean for offline reference.
• Public /changelog/ page (this one) — full transparency on what changes each round.
• Asset version bumped 406 → 407.

Autonomous editorial round — wrote 3 substantive new guides targeting high-intent commercial queries Codex flagged as missing.

• /guides/english-speaking-muay-thai-pattaya/ — 10 gyms with English-fluent kru, ~1900 words.
• /guides/muay-thai-camps-with-accommodation-pattaya/ — 8 stay-and-train camps with pricing tiers, ~1800 words.
• /guides/gym-day-pass-pattaya/ — 12 gyms accepting walk-in day passes, ~1700 words.
• Each guide auto-gets Article schema + FAQPage schema + 8-12 internal venue links.

• Duplicate sitemap_index.xml deleted.
• README.md rewritten to V2 reality (build-v2.js, PUSH workflow, full schema map).
• NEXT_STEPS.md — comprehensive off-page playbook (GSC, Bing, GBP, backlinks, content).

Codex called geo "the single biggest local-SEO unlock." Built the Nominatim pipeline.

• scripts/geocode-venues.js — one-time Nominatim geocoder for all 158 venues.
• build-v2.js reads data/venue-geo.json and injects geo into LocalBusiness JSON-LD.
• Sitemap now emits priority + changefreq per URL pattern.

Closed three biggest remaining Codex V3 findings in one pass.

• Mobile CLS fixes — reserved space on .marquee, .btn-row, .result-card, .pa-network, .nav-row.
• Tool pages (/map/, /compare/, /plan-my-trip/, /find-my-coach/, /favorites/) converted to honest V2 static stubs with 3 working-alternative cards each.
• Article + FAQPage JSON-LD auto-injected on 17 guide pages.

The biggest long-tail SEO unlock per Codex V3 Section L.

• ~80 combined category-area pages now generated at /area/<area>/<category>/ targeting "muay thai in jomtien pattaya" etc.
• parsePostalAddress() now infers Thai postal codes from area context (Bang Lamung=20150, Sattahip=20250).
• <h4 class="channel-card-name"> → <h3> globally (fixes 163-page heading hierarchy issue).

Closed all four Round 4 Codex P0s.

• Removed `immutable` from _headers CSS/JS cache rules (now max-age=3600, must-revalidate).
• Asset version bumped 405 → 406 to force Cloudflare cache invalidation.
• Added og:site_name, twitter:site, robots meta, x-dns-prefetch-control, dns-prefetch hints to head().
• Back-to-top button text color #fff → #000 on pink (contrast 3.53:1 → 5.94:1, WCAG AA pass).

Repaired three critical production issues + added deploy guard.

• Homepage truncation repaired (was 307 lines mid-attribute, now 603 with proper closing tags).
• styles.css unclosed .back-to-top block fixed; restored .skip-link, .back-to-top.is-visible, prefers-reduced-motion rules.
• CSP rewrote with 3 active sha256 hashes + Cloudflare Insights origin allowed.
• NEW: scripts/verify-deploy.js — pre-push integrity check (truncation, NULs, brace balance, CSP coverage).

Sanitized tel: links, sitemap completeness, multi-session hours parsing, footer/heading fixes.

• phoneToTel() helper sanitizes display phones into E.164-clean dial values.
• Sitemap +26 URLs (17 guides, 6 tool pages, 4 utility pages).

• rel="noopener noreferrer" sitewide; footer h4 → div.footer-col-h.
• 5 broken YAML venue MDs fixed; --hint #555 → #888 (WCAG AA pass).
