# Subscription System Implementation - Status Report
**Date:** December 11, 2024
**Status:** Backend Complete ✅ | Frontend Pending
**Build Status:** ✅ PASSING
**Application:** Running on port 3010
---
## Summary
The core subscription system backend has been successfully implemented and is fully functional. The system enforces a 10 conversations/month limit for free users and provides unlimited conversations for Premium subscribers ($10/month or $100/year).
---
## What Was Implemented ✅
### Phase 1: Database Schema (COMPLETE)

## What Needs to Be Done 🚧
### Phase 4: Frontend UI (PENDING)
#### Subscription Page (`/[locale]/subscription/page.tsx`)
**Not Created** - Needs to be built with:
- Display current plan (Free vs Premium)
- Show usage stats (conversations used/remaining)
- Plan comparison cards
- Monthly/yearly toggle
- Upgrade button (calls `/api/subscriptions/checkout`)
- Manage subscription button (calls `/api/subscriptions/portal`)
- Next reset date display
#### Upgrade Modal (`/components/subscription/upgrade-modal.tsx`)
**Not Created** - Needs to be built with:
- Triggered when conversation limit reached
- Clear messaging about limit
- Upgrade CTA
- Direct link to subscription page
#### Success Page (`/[locale]/subscription/success/page.tsx`)
**Not Created** - Needs to be built with:
- Thank you message
- List of Premium benefits
- CTA to start chatting
- Link back to home
#### Usage Display Component (`/components/subscription/usage-display.tsx`)
**Not Created** - Needs to be built with:
- Conversations used/remaining
- Progress bar visualization
- Reset date
- Current tier badge
- Can be embedded in settings, profile, or chat
#### Settings Page Updates (`/app/[locale]/settings/page.tsx`)
**Needs Enhancement** - Add:
- Subscription section

6. **Test Full Flow** - End-to-end subscription journey
### Nice to Have (Post-Launch)

---
## Technical Notes
### Conversation Limit Logic
- Limits checked **only when creating NEW conversations**
- Continuing existing conversations doesn't count against limit
- Premium users bypass all limit checks
- Counter resets automatically on `limitResetDate`
- Reset date is 1 month from first conversation
### Subscription Status Handling
- `active` + `trialing`: Full access
- `past_due`: Grace period (still has access, needs payment)
- `cancelled`: Access until period end, then downgrade
- `expired`: Immediate downgrade to free
### Error Codes
- `LIMIT_REACHED`: Free user hit conversation limit
- `ALREADY_SUBSCRIBED`: User already has active premium
- `AUTH_REQUIRED`: Not authenticated
- `NO_SUBSCRIPTION`: No Stripe customer found
