Build the whole project, one step at a time.

I want to build the No Dark Nights project.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

Original site: https://nodarknights.com

Project link: https://github.com/prichardsondev/no-dark-nights

I am a beginner, so please explain each step in simple words.

Please:
1. Check that the project link works.
2. Download or clone the project into a new folder.
3. Open that folder as my Codex workspace.
4. Read the README and AGENTS.md files.
5. Install what the project needs.
6. Start the website on my computer.
7. Open the local website so I can see it.

Do not change the project yet. If you need me to sign in, choose a folder, install software, or approve a permission, stop and tell me exactly what to do. An adult should handle accounts, installations, permissions, and publishing when appropriate.

We are finished when I can see the No Dark Nights homepage and you tell me where the project folder is.

Help me understand this No Dark Nights project before I change it.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

I am a beginner. First inspect the project, including the website pages, the maker profile data, the code that creates the 3D model, and the tests.

Do not edit files yet. Explain unfamiliar words in plain language. Show me:
- which file controls each page;
- where the maker and light information lives;
- which files are safe to personalize;
- which 3D-model files need extra care;
- how the tests protect the project.

Finish with a short project map and three safe changes I could make first. Ask me to explain one part back to you so we know I understood it.

Help me personalize this website so it clearly belongs to its maker.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

Keep the lithophane maker working. I am a beginner, so explain the files you edit.

Ask me for:
- the site or studio name;
- a short introduction;
- the homepage words and color direction;
- each light listing’s image, title, and short description;
- permitted gallery images and privacy-safe captions.

Keep maker and light information in app/maker-profile.ts. Clearly mark anything I have not replaced as a sample. Before any public release, require me to replace every sample listing or intentionally remove it.

Contact remains disabled by default in every repository clone.

Never request or publish a child’s email address, phone number, full name, school, address, social account, or contact link. If an adult maker or organization manager deliberately asks to add contact, accept only an adult- or organization-managed mailto: address or secure HTTPS contact page. Show the exact public label and destination and stop for confirmation before changing environment configuration or deploying. Otherwise, keep contact disabled. Never create a fake or example email address.

For any gallery image, require adult permission, remove EXIF and location metadata, and inspect it for addresses, school names, uniforms, license plates, recognizable locations, full names, and identifying filenames before publication. Keep the homepage’s three paths, the compact design, keyboard access, phone layout, source-photo privacy, and all lithophane geometry unchanged.

Run the relevant checks. Show me the personalized pages, remaining sample content, files changed, and one design choice in plain words. We are finished when a trusted adult has reviewed the maker information and every image intended for publishing.

Help me safely save my personalized No Dark Nights project with Git and GitHub.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

I am a beginner. Explain that Git records changes in my project and GitHub can store a copy online. Do not publish anything until I understand what will happen.

Please:
1. Read AGENTS.md and check the current Git status and remote repository.
2. Show me every changed and new file in plain language.
3. Check for passwords, API keys, .env files, local configuration, downloads, build output, private photographs, names, contact details, school information, addresses, or location clues that should not be committed.
4. Confirm that only permitted public images are included and that sample listings are still clearly labeled if any remain.
5. Run the project checks before saving.
6. Propose a short commit message that says what changed.
7. Stop and ask before staging or committing if any private, generated, unexplained, or unrelated file is present.
8. Create the local commit only after the review is clean.
9. Confirm which GitHub account, repository, branch, and public/private visibility will be used. Stop for sign-in, repository creation, visibility, permissions, merge conflicts, or any choice I should make.
10. Push only the reviewed commit. Never force-push, delete history, expose credentials, or change a repository’s visibility without explicit adult approval.
11. Open or show the GitHub repository and confirm the intended files and commit are there.

We are finished when the clean commit is on the intended GitHub repository, I know its visibility, and I can explain the difference between Git and GitHub.

Help me create my first custom lithophane STL with the local No Dark Nights website.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

I am a beginner, so guide me one small step at a time and explain unfamiliar words. Use the project’s Resources page for parts and printing guidance.

Before we begin:
1. Ask me to confirm that I took the photograph or have permission to use it.
2. Explain briefly that clear, well-lit images with good contrast and an obvious subject usually work best.
3. Keep the photograph on my computer. Do not ask me to attach it or show it to you.

Then help me:
1. Start the local No Dark Nights website if it is not already running.
2. Open the Studio page.
3. Measure or verify the height, width, and slot width of my night-light housing. If I do not know a measurement, stop and help me find it instead of guessing.
4. Choose the closest size preset, then adjust the measurements only if my housing requires it.
5. Tell me how to select and frame the photograph, then let me or my supervising adult visually check zoom, position, contrast, and invert inside the Studio. Do not inspect the photograph yourself.
6. Let me inspect the interactive 3D preview. If WebGL is unavailable, explain how I can use the photo framing view and continue because STL generation should still work.
7. Ask whether I want an optional short message raised on the bottom adapter. Use only a nickname, kind word, or short message. Do not use a full name, school, address, email, phone number, username, or website.
8. Download the printable STL.
9. Record “Source image: local private image—not stored,” followed by the model height, model width, slot width, curve radius, adapter thickness, chosen preset, photo adjustments, and optional adapter text in a short settings note.

We are finished when the STL is downloaded, the important measurements have been checked, and I have a settings note I can use again.

Test my No Dark Nights website and lithophane STL before I publish or print them.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

I am a beginner. Explain each check and do not hide failures. Read AGENTS.md first. Do not change the lithophane geometry unless a test proves a real problem and you explain it to me.

Website checks:
1. Run lint, type-check, build, page tests, WebGL fallback tests, and all geometry/STL tests.
2. Open the homepage, Lights, Studio, Learn, Gallery, Resources, Code, and About pages.
3. Check desktop and phone layouts, navigation, headings, links, keyboard focus, contrast, image framing, and horizontal overflow.
4. Confirm the homepage still has the three clear paths and “Make one. Give one. Teach one.”
5. Confirm the Lights page belongs to this maker, sample listings are honest, and contact is adult-controlled.
6. Confirm source photos remain local, WebGL failure cannot crash the Studio, bottom text works, and STL download remains available.
7. Check that every photo and caption has permission and does not expose private information.

STL checks:
1. Use the downloaded STL and settings note. Do not request or inspect my source image.
2. Verify image direction, height, width, slot width, curve, adapter thickness, bottom text, and build-plate orientation.
3. Check for a closed manifold mesh, outward-facing triangles, duplicate or degenerate triangles, open edges, and unexpected size.
4. Open the STL in my slicer and inspect the first layers, rounded slot, adapter, panel transition, and full toolpath preview.
5. Compare measurements with my actual night-light housing and the Resources guidance. Do not invent universal printer settings.

Fix only clear website problems that are safe and in scope, then rerun affected checks. Stop before changing geometry, publishing, committing a private image, or making a decision that requires me or an adult.

Finish with a table of pass, needs work, or not tested for every check; evidence for each result; anything I must inspect myself; and a clear overall release and print readiness decision.

We are finished when the complete automated suite passes and the website and STL have passed the human checks, or when every remaining blocker is clearly listed.

Prepare a private review version of my No Dark Nights site with Sites.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

I am a beginner. First explain that Sites turns the tested project into a hosted preview. Check how my local Codex is authenticated and whether Sites is available for my account and workspace; availability can depend on the account, plan, workspace settings, and administrator.

Please:
1. Confirm the GitHub commit from the previous steps and rerun the required release checks.
2. Stop and ask a trusted adult or teacher to approve publishing and review the intended audience.
3. Preserve the existing Sites project identity if this project already has one. Never create a duplicate deployment project silently.
4. Prepare a private, owner-only review version. Before deploying, show me the resolved access level and ask for approval.
5. Do not make the site public, connect or change a real domain, add analytics, or expose private photographs or contact details.
6. After deployment, open the homepage, Lights, Studio, Learn, Gallery, Resources, Code, and About pages and verify the main desktop and phone layouts and links.
7. Give me the private link and a short adult review checklist.

If I use Bedrock-only authentication, recognize that it supports local Codex work but not OpenAI-hosted Sites. Do not keep retrying Sites and do not ask me for AWS credentials. Preserve the completed local website and approved GitHub repository. If an instructor has eligible ChatGPT and Sites access, prepare a clear handoff so the instructor can separately review and publish an approved preview.

If Sites is otherwise unavailable, do not pretend the deployment succeeded or choose another public host. Keep the completed project local and on the approved GitHub repository, explain what is unavailable, and give me a checklist for trying again with an adult or workspace administrator.

Publishing is optional. We are finished when a trusted adult has an approved private review link, or when the fully tested local website and approved GitHub repository are safely saved and the Sites limitation is documented.

Help me turn my finished lithophane STL into a working night light.

Private-image rules:
- Never open, read, attach, upload, or analyze my private source photograph.
- I or my supervising adult will visually check the photograph and use it only inside the Studio.
- You may inspect the generated STL, recorded settings, automated tests, and geometry.
- Automated tests must use a neutral image provided by the project.
- Studio processing is local. Giving a photograph to an AI agent is a separate action, so do not ask me to provide the photograph to you.

I am a beginner. Guide me carefully, explain slicer terms in plain language, and involve a trusted adult where appropriate. Do not assume one printer profile or one set of slicer settings works for every machine.

Please help me:
1. Open the STL in the slicer for my actual 3D printer.
2. Verify the model height, width, slot width, and orientation against the settings note and my measured night-light housing.
3. Confirm that the adapter base sits flat on the build plate and the lithophane stands in the intended upright printing orientation.
4. Preview the first layers, the rounded slot, the adapter area, and the transition into the picture panel. Point out gaps, unsupported areas, or surprising toolpaths.
5. Compare my choices with the No Dark Nights Resources page and its “What We Use” links, while treating them as examples rather than purchasing requirements or universal settings.
6. If this is a new housing, uncertain measurement, or changed adapter, open the Base Fit Lab at https://nodarknights.com/studio#base-fit-lab and make the three-size adapter Fit Finder before the full print.
7. Check the cooled fit test on the unplugged light housing. If it is too tight or loose, return to the Studio measurements and make a corrected STL before continuing.
8. Prepare and print the complete lithophane with adult guidance where appropriate, following the printer and material manufacturers’ instructions.
9. Inspect the cooled finished print for cracks, sharp edges, poor layer bonding, blocked openings, or a bad fit before using it with the light.
10. Follow the light manufacturer’s instructions and the project’s safety guidance. Keep the print away from excess heat and do not modify the electrical parts.
11. Help me photograph or describe the finished result without showing names, addresses, school details, location clues, or other private information.
12. Ask me to write two or three sentences about what worked, what I changed, and what I learned.

We are finished when the fit has been verified, the complete print has been safely inspected, and I have a privacy-safe result and short learning note to share.
