Email Capture Popup
Optional email + verification-link prompt shown after a successful username submit on the landing page. Users can skip and still reach the dashboard; providing an email lets us link future analyses to their account.
Your AI Chess Coach
Behind the dialog: the existing hero. The popup opens after the Analyse button has successfully created the user and fetched games.

Non-blocking
Skip / backdrop click / Escape all redirect to the dashboard. Email is never required.
Verification flow
Submit hits POST /api/email-signups/send-verification, which stores a hashed token and emails a 24h link via Resend (logged in dev).
Returns to /?verified=1
GET /api/email-signups/verify consumes the token and 302s back to the landing page, where HeroSection shows a success or expired banner.
