- IPA pronunciation bumped to 23px (it reads small at body size).
- Vertical part-of-speech label 11px -> 13px and darkened (#7fa0bd -> #5f86a6).
- Watermark nudged down so the glyph's top curve no longer overlaps the date.

Content quality ("LLM polishes, dictionary anchors"):
- New wotd._polish: rewrites the real dictionary gloss into ONE warm plain
sentence + two clear everyday example sentences, grounded in the real
definition (no invented meanings). Stored in new wotd_pool/daily_wotd columns
gloss + usage, alongside the raw definition/examples which stay the anchor.
- harvest() polishes each new word; pick_daily() lazily polishes + caches back
any older pooled word that lacks a gloss (client threaded through run_daily).
- Admin word-add polishes on insert; re-pick passes an LLM client so quote
meaning / word gloss fill on a forced fresh pick.
- /api/word/today now prefers gloss + usage, falling back to the raw dictionary
def/examples when polish is absent (so it's always safe).
- db._migrate adds gloss/usage to wotd_pool + daily_wotd (idempotent ALTER).
Frontend — /word redesigned to CD's "Editorial Asymmetric": faded oversized
initial bleeding off the right, vertical part-of-speech rail, big Newsreader
word, airy definition, left-ruled italic example sentences, outline Listen
button + date. (Uses our self-hosted Newsreader/Hanken stack rather than the
mockup's Google fonts; the made-up syllable respelling is omitted since we only
have real IPA.)
Tests: _polish parse/trim/cap, harvest stores gloss/usage, pick lazy-polishes
older words, admin gloss flows through to /api/word/today. 403 backend + 27 fe.

- /home3: small-joys rail now reads live /api/word|quote|onthisday/today (placeholders only
as fallback); each cell links to its detail page.
- HubShell component (shared bar/footer/fonts/tokens) for the hub + detail pages.
- /word: big word, IPA, Listen (cached clip + browser-TTS fallback), definition, sentences.
- /quote: the quote, attribution, and the AI "what it means".
- /onthisday: the date, year + fact, image, summary, source.
- Admin "Small Joys" tab: per-pool list with feature/block/delete/add + re-pick, for all
three kinds. New admin API: GET/POST /api/admin/joys/{kind}[/{id}|/add|/repick].
