Hero illustration:
- Painterly 16:9 editorial illustration generated via Nano Banana Pro
for the featured case (green-fireballs-narrative): late-1940s
desert night, vivid emerald fireball over silhouetted Sandia mesas,
1948-era state-police sedan parked on US 66 shoulder with an
officer in period uniform looking up, faint green glow on his
face. Sandia Base 5 Miles roadsign. New Yorker-cover painterly
register, NOT photorealistic, NOT sci-fi.
- Stored at /data/disclosure/processing/case-art/<slug>.png, served
through the existing /api/static/processing/ route. 2.7MB at 2K.
- components/featured-case.tsx: prefers the illustration over the
declassified-page thumbnail when present. Tags it "Editorial
illustration" / "Ilustração editorial" so the reader knows it's
not a photograph.
- app/c/[slug]/page.tsx: full-bleed editorial hero at the top of
the article when an illustration exists for the slug. Title sits
on the image with gradient overlay; "Ilustração editorial" chip
in the top-right corner labels the art honestly. When no
illustration exists the page falls back to the plain title header.
Sitemap fix:
- Added export const dynamic = "force-dynamic" + revalidate = 3600
to app/sitemap.ts. Without these Next.js statically generated the
sitemap at build time, when the DB and case-files volume were
unreachable from the build container — which is why production
was serving only the 9 static URLs instead of ~3000.

User explicit: "1 bilhão de entusiastas pelo mundo ovni" — site is for the
UFO-curious public, not for skeptics. The 8-detective scaffolding becomes
invisible plumbing; the reader sees stories about what was observed.
Reader-facing changes:
New homepage (web/app/page.tsx)
- SiteHeader: magazine-style top nav (no detective tiles)
- HeroBanner: full-bleed editorial opener with declassified-page art
background, display-serif headline, live stats row (122 docs,
2047 events, 1861 witnesses, 867 craft catalogued)
- FeaturedCase: cover-story treatment of the most recent case_report,
uses a real document page as hero image, links to /c/[slug]
- PortalGrid: 6 thematic doorways into the archive — Sightings,
Witnesses, Craft, Hot spots, Programs, Documents — each tile shows
a real entity count and short editorial blurb
- GreatestHits: top 9 most-cited events from the corpus
(Kenneth Arnold 1947, Mantell 1948, …) as a magazine grid
- Doc list kept but reframed as "the primary record"
New sub-pages (5)
- /sightings → events (2047), magazine grid
- /witnesses → people (1861), compact table
- /objects → uap_objects (867), magazine grid
- /locations → locations (1757), compact table
- /operations → organizations (1596), compact table
- /documents → full doc list with thumbnails (mirrors homepage section
for direct deep-link)
All share <EntityListPage> shell with per-page i18n + JSON-LD ItemList
Stripped detective surfacing
- /jobs/[id]: "Sherlock Holmes / Dr. Watson" → "Investigation in progress"
- chat-bubble: detective-named card → neutral "Investigação em andamento"
- quick-launch: 7-kind detective dropdown → single "investigar um caso"
input (kind=case_report hardcoded)
- /bureau: rewritten as the case-file library (no artefact dumps)
Typography + design
- Fraunces variable serif loaded for display headings
(`.font-display` class)
- Gold-amber accent (#e0c080) unified as the brand colour
- Asymmetric magazine grids (1+2+3 column, generous whitespace)
- Hover micro-interactions (image scale on featured case, translateX
on portal arrows)
SEO + GEO
- layout.tsx metadataBase + title.template + per-route Metadata exports
- Organization JSON-LD on root layout
- WebSite + SearchAction JSON-LD on homepage
- CollectionPage + ItemList JSON-LD on every entity list page
- openGraph + twitter cards, pt-BR primary + en-US alternate
- ai:purpose meta tag for Generative Engine Optimization — declares
the site as a citation-linked primary-source archive
- robots: index + follow with large image preview
The detectives themselves remain alive in the backend (runtime, DB, audit
log), but the reader never sees "Holmes / Sun-Tzu / Watson" in the UI. The
next phase will reorient case-writer to write as a single best-seller voice
synthesising all the internal sources.
