🐝 Hive — Private Neighborhood Chat

Hive is a secure, invite-only neighborhood chat. Members join with an invite code, chat in rooms or 1-on-1, and stay safe with Gemini-assisted content moderation and strict RBAC.

🔐 Privacy first: Auth via Firebase Email Link Sign-In; routes gated behind Auth.
🧠 Safety: Gemini helps flag unsafe content for Soldiers (mods) and Queen Bee (admin).
