Agent rule

Hello form + visible email coexist — no scary subscription copy; form posts to /api/contact via Resend.

Status: Accepted

Context: Build a list without training visitors to bounce. Agents over-index on "Subscribe to our newsletter" unless constrained.

Decision: "Say hello" modal posts to /api/contact (Resend). Keep visible email on pages. Remove scary subscription messaging. Resend audience (RESEND_AUDIENCE_ID). Accept RESEND_API_KEY or Resend env var.

Consequences: Form + email coexist. DMARC documented in DEPLOY.md. Agent does not add dark-pattern list CTAs.
