## Critical Implementation Gaps
### ❌ **Anonymous User Support (Requirement #18)**
**Impact:** High - Violates key accessibility requirement
**Current:** All actions require authentication (`isAuthenticated` checks)
**Files:** `src/lib/forum/actions.ts:34-41, 107-114, 242-249`
**Fix Required:** Remove authentication requirements for voting, posting, commenting
### ❌ **User Identity System (Requirement #9)**
**Impact:** Medium - Core user experience feature missing
**Current:** No nickname/call sign fields in User interface
**Files:** `src/types/forum.ts:5-24`
**Fix Required:** Add nickname field and call sign setup UI
### ❌ **Bookmarking System (Requirement #21)**
**Impact:** Medium - Important usability feature
**Current:** No local storage or bookmark functionality found
**Files:** None found
**Fix Required:** Implement local bookmark storage and UI
### ❌ **Developer Library (Requirement #28)**
**Impact:** Low - External integration capability
**Current:** Internal services only, no packaged library
**Files:** `src/lib/index.ts` exists but not exported as library
**Fix Required:** Create npm package with clear API documentation

4. **Implement Bookmarking** - Add local bookmark functionality
5. **Enhance Active Member Tracking** - Calculate and display real active member counts
6. **Complete Icon Size Validation** - Add proper size restrictions for cell icons

7. **Create Developer Library** - Package services as distributable npm module
8. **Enhance Reliability** - Implement comprehensive missing message detection
9. **Add Advanced Sorting** - Extend sorting options beyond time/relevance
