feat(share): Instagram Story format export#3
Merged
Conversation
Add a 1080×1920 (9:16) story-format download/share so users can post their card to Instagram Stories. - StoryFrame.tsx: branded 1080×1920 canvas wrapping PlayerCard (GITFUT wordmark, tier glow, archetype + handle), theme-aware. - ResultView.tsx: mount one hidden StoryFrame off-screen so its art and fonts paint/decode for capture (same technique as lib/capture.ts). - CardActions.tsx: "Story format" action — captures the frame at pixelRatio 1 (already native res). On mobile it opens the native share sheet with the image attached (one tap into IG Stories); on desktop it downloads the PNG. A dismissed/failed share falls back to download so the action never leaves the user empty-handed. Reuses the existing html-to-image capture pipeline — no new API route or dependency.
Rework the Instagram-Story frame so a developer who has never seen GitFut
instantly gets the concept and wants their own card.
- Concept-first top stack: GITFUT + "YOUR GITHUB, SCOUTED" sets the frame
before the eye reaches the card.
- Active CTA: "TRY YOUR CARD ON GITFUT.COM →" in brand green, one line,
replacing the passive personal gitfut.com/{login} dead-end.
- IG safe zones: wordmark + CTA pinned inside y:250–1670 so Instagram's
top/bottom chrome never occludes them; card ~606px, optically centred.
- Figure/ground fix: neutral near-black stage with only a faint tier
room-tint + a rim-glow / dark-moat / drop-shadow separator around the
card, so it lifts off the background on every finish (red-on-red,
grey-on-grey, navy-on-navy) instead of dissolving into a same-hue wash.
- Archetype is the card's one-line caption (length-clamped, tier accent).
Verified across all 7 finishes + founder + a long-archetype edge case;
PlayerCard is untouched (the FUT homage stays intact).

Summary
Adds a 1080×1920 (9:16) Instagram Story format download/share, redesigned so a developer who has never seen GitFut instantly understands the concept and wants to make their own card.
A "Story format" button sits in the share actions under the card:
{login}-gitfut-story.png.Design (cold-viewer conversion)
Optimized for the funnel "stranger-developer sees this in a story → gets it → makes their own":
