Problem
The operating gap
Shared links render unpredictably — some pages show a stretched logo, some a wrong-sized image, some nothing at all. Social and messaging previews look broken or off-brand, undercutting credibility exactly when a link is being passed around.
Build
What gets built
Standardize OG and Twitter card output through the shared metadata helper so every page emits a correctly dimensioned 1200x630 image with proper title and description. Use a consistent default and per-section images where it matters, and verify rendering with link-preview validators across the major platforms.
