🚀 CO-FOUNDER MATCHING - QUICK START GUIDE

Step 1: Update Database Schema

Run this SQL in Supabase Dashboard → SQL Editor:

Go to https://supabase.com
Open your FoundryAI project
Click "SQL Editor" in sidebar
Click "New query"
Copy the ENTIRE contents of database/complete_user_profile_schema.sql
Paste and click "Run"
You should see "Success" ✅

This adds ~40 new columns to the users table and creates the auto-completion trigger.

Step 2: What I'm Building Next

🔧 Backend API (server.js)

I'll add these endpoints:

PUT /api/users/:id/profile - Save profile fields
GET /api/users/:id/profile - Get profile
GET /api/matches?userId=X - Get potential matches
POST /api/matches - Send connection request
GET /api/matches/requests?userId=X - Get requests
POST /api/matches/:id/respond - Accept/reject

🎨 Frontend Components

Enhanced Profile Wizard (10-step form with auto-save)
Progress Bar (in header)
Feature Gate Cards (locked features)
Matches Dashboard (with filters)
Match Score Display (visual percentage)

🧠 Matching Algorithm

Smart scoring based on:

Complementary skills (25 pts)
Industry alignment (15 pts)
Commitment match (20 pts)
Location (15 pts)
Stage alignment (10 pts)
Values (10 pts)
Profile completion bonus (5 pts)

Step 3: Timeline

TODAY: Database + Backend API
TOMORROW: Profile Wizard + UX
DAY 3: Matching System + Testing
