Pennant: all feature flags were replaced by BillingCycle, so remove the package
(composer), the now-empty app/Features discovery, the pennant-development skill,
and replace the create_features_table migration with a drop_features_table.
Timezone: the registration flow collected a user timezone (seeder, request
validation, hidden field) but no timezone column ever existed and CreateUser
discarded it. Remove the dead handling, the orphaned Timezone rule, and the
tests that covered the now-removed validation.
Pricing
- Bill per workspace ($12/mo or $120/yr each); Stripe quantity tracks the
workspace count and syncs on workspace create/delete.
- 2,500 AI credits per workspace, pooled at the account level; monthly reset
on the billing anniversary, annual granted upfront (no rollover).
- One social account per network per workspace; remove all count-based limits
(workspace/social/member) and the legacy plan tiers (single Workspace plan).
Onboarding (cloud only: SELF_HOSTED=false + PostHog)
- Replace the /subscribe plan picker with /onboarding persona selection
(Creator/Freelancer/Startup/Agency/Small business/Other), saved on the user
(users.persona) and mirrored to PostHog, then Stripe Checkout on the monthly
price. 8-day trial so Stripe displays 7.
Billing screen
- Remove the Change Plan dialog (dead with a single plan); add an annual-upgrade
banner for monthly subscribers (swapToYearly).
- Current-plan card shows the workspace count instead of the plan name.
System AI
- Brand analyzer / workspace autofill is always allowed and never debits credits
(system feature, not the user's usage).
Self-hosted (SELF_HOSTED=true) bypasses all billing, credit, limit, network,
and onboarding logic.
A past_due subscription made subscribed() return false (Cashier default),
so EnsureAccountReady redirected to /subscribe — which starts a brand-new
checkout and creates a second subscription. Past-due users already have a
subscription; they only need to update their payment method.
Enable Cashier::keepPastDueSubscriptionsActive() so past_due counts as
active and users keep navigating. Surface a past-due notice in the sidebar
footer linking to the Stripe billing portal (not /subscribe). Both trial
modes (subscription trial / generic trial) are unaffected.
Add a trypost config toggle to switch between card-required checkout trials and no-card signup trials, and wire signup, checkout, access gating, UI copy, and tests to both modes.

Revert the no-card signup trial flow so access depends on a Stripe subscription trial started at checkout, preventing app access before a payment method is collected.

- StripeEventListener::handleSubscriptionCreated nulls account.trial_ends_at
when a Stripe subscription is created. Prevents 'Trial' badge from
lingering for users who convert mid-generic-trial to paid.
- Drop unused trialDays global Inertia prop (no frontend consumers after
/subscribe redesign).
Tests added (10 new, 0 regressions, 1533 total):
- AccountTest: isOnTrial + activeTrialEndsAt across 4 scenarios
(no trial, generic only, subscription only, both — subscription wins)
- StripeEventListenerTest: subscription created clears generic trial
- TrialMiddlewareAccessTest: trialing-with-card subscription passes
- BillingControllerTest: index exposes onTrial/trialEndsAt for the 3
trial states (generic-only, subscription-only, paying); subscribe
page no longer exposes trialDays prop
- BillingController::index reads onTrial from Account::isOnTrial() (covers
generic trial without a Stripe subscription) and falls back to
account.trial_ends_at when no subscription exists. Vue page already had
the badge + 'Trial ends' UI wired — just needed the right props.
- Drop default trial_days from 8 to 7 for consistency with messaging.
New signups land on a 7-day generic trial (Cashier trial_ends_at) without
a Stripe customer or subscription. Account is on Starter plan limits during
the trial. After 7 days, EnsureAccountReady redirects to /subscribe per the
existing flow.
- CreateUser sets account.trial_ends_at and plan_id = Starter
- EnsureAccountReady allows access when subscribed() OR onGenericTrial()
- Account::isOnTrial() includes generic trial check
Existing users unaffected: paying users have a subscription;
never-paid users continue redirecting to /subscribe.
