refactor(nav, services): one source of truth for what evig offers and where it appears

[catomean]

Two menus were describing the same organisation and drifting apart. This makes placement data and deletes what nothing read.

The SSOT break was mine, from an hour earlier

Moving Linux and the open-source registry into Lernen, I listed them by hand in navigation.tsx — while SERVICE_CONFIGS still fed them to the Dienstleistungen menu. One item, two menus, two independent lists to keep in step: exactly the drift the config exists to prevent.

Each service now declares navGroup: 'services' | 'learn' once, and both menus derive from that. A service cannot be in two menus or in none, and services-nav.test.ts asserts precisely that — proved by planting the duplicate back, which fails with "linuxOpenSource appears in 2 menus (expected exactly 1)".

The catalogue

Kept: webDesign (your call — real revenue), linuxOpenSource, openSourceSolutions.

Added: aiAdoption at /services/ai-robotics. Pillar 5 existed only as a /contact link. The page describes how the work goes — look at the work for a day, pick one task, build it, hand it over so someone on their side can run and switch it off — and carries the required honesty boundary: not a silver bullet, not a dependency, not a big firm.

Removed:

service	why
hardwareRecycling	Off-thesis outright. "Verantwortungsvolle Entsorgung" is disposal; evig is not a recycler, and the homepage now says so in as many words.
buildYourComputer	549 lines of interactive configurator for a service flagged available: false, still selling the previous org's "Revamped"-Zertifizierung under an English title.
computerRepair, dataRecovery	Redirect to /it-hilfe. They advertised evig repairing your machine at CHF 70/h, which contradicts the marketplace model where the technician sets the price. The "booking slug" also booked nothing — the seeded service_types slugs never matched these hrefs, so the page always fell through to isBookable: false.

Redirects rather than 404s: the URLs are indexed and the visitor still wants the same thing. Also deleted /services/[service]/repair, a 135-line orphan that ignored its own route param and rendered the same page at /services/<anything>/repair.

Über uns answers one question now

It held nine unsectioned items spanning five unrelated groups — identity, a brand division, a transactional product (join a pool, pay a share), trust pages, and two operational explainers including a City of Zürich subsidy evig does not administer and cannot redeem. Two carried a new badge simultaneously. It was the only multi-item menu without isSection eyebrows.

Now five items in two groups: Wer wir sind (Mission, Vision, Projekte) and Vertrauen (Transparenz, FAQ).

evig ai and Abos teilen moved to Marktplatz, which gains a third section — from the reader's side these are three ways to get something, not three parts of an org chart. So funktioniert's and Reparaturbonus Zürich left the nav; both pages remain.

Config that held German nobody read

src/config/community.ts was 644 lines: INVOLVEMENT_OPTIONS, PARTNER_INSTITUTIONS and seven full PageContent trees with German titles, descriptions and CTA labels — a second copy of getInvolved.* in the message files.

Nothing imported any of it except one type. It could have drifted from the real copy forever without anyone noticing, because nothing read it. Now 22 lines: the type.

A duplication that can't be deleted yet — so it's gated instead

WORKSHOP_CATEGORIES carries a German name/description per category, and the messages carry the same strings again. The public page renders the message version; the config version is load-bearing elsewhere — normalizeCategoryId matches legacy DB rows on the German name, and the admin filter uses it as an option value. Deleting it needs an admin refactor.

So it can no longer diverge: workshops-config-matches-messages.test.ts fails if you edit one and not the other. Mutation-tested. The real fix is noted in the file.

Also removed the last "Vintage" copy: the hardware workshop said "Vintage-Restauration", and a dead components.communitySpace block advertised a "Museum für seltene Vintage-Hardware" — rendered by no component at all.

Baseline

i18n source findings fell 2531 → 2430, most of it the deleted community.ts tree. The one new entry is the edited workshop description — a pre-existing violation whose text changed. Baselined rather than marked i18n-ok, because it is UI text in the wrong layer and should stay visible as debt until the admin refactor removes it.

Verification

npm run verify green: lint, umlauts, chrome, docs, compliance, typecheck, 7755 tests (535 suites), production build.
