Context Pack

PROJECT CONTEXT:
I am building a web app and need an admin dashboard to view and manage real application data.

GOAL:
Create an admin dashboard with real stats, searchable data tables, and working admin actions.

REQUIREMENTS:
- Stats cards computed from real database data
- Data table with search, filter, and pagination
- Row actions (view, edit, disable/delete) that persist
- Admin-only access control
- Loading, empty, and error states

CONSTRAINTS:
- No hardcoded fake numbers in stats
- Actions must mutate the database, not just the table row in memory
- Do not skip access control

DEFINITION OF DONE:
- Stats reflect real records and update when data changes
- Search and filters return correct results
- Row actions persist after refresh
- Non-admins cannot open the dashboard or call admin APIs

COMMON FAILURES TO AVOID:
- Stats cards showing hardcoded numbers
- Tables rendering static arrays instead of database queries
- Delete/disable that only removes the row from local state
- Admin routes reachable by any logged-in user
