- Study hub/lesson pages turned gold — CSS merge error with `.study-index-page` fixed
- Lesson announcements not saving — `announcement` field missing from `sanitizeColossiansStudySections` whitelist
- 2FA email method blocked with "not configured" — guard checked `totpSecret` instead of `twoFaMethod`
- `STUDY_REMINDERS_FILE` constant never defined — server would crash on first reminder write
- `sanitizeStudyUsers` stripped all 2FA fields — data lost on every restart
- `scheduleStudyReminders` missing from refactored modules

- Lesson announcement banner — full-width gold stripe at top of lesson page
