As a user, I want to see the Home page with the Paisapreneur chatbot interface, including the top navbar with 'Paisapreneur' logo text in gold, the chat message area (user messages on right in gold bubbles, AI replies on left in dark grey bubbles), suggested quick questions at the bottom (e.g. 'How to start a business in India?', 'Prepare me for an accounting interview', 'How to earn ₹50,000/month online'), and the 'New Chat' button at the top right. Implement the Interactive Gold Thread Animation on the homepage as described in the SRD. Implement based on the existing Home (v2) JSX design. Mobile-first, responsive down to 375px.

As a user, I want to use the Chat page to type career questions, send them, and view AI coaching replies. The page should show user messages on the right in gold bubbles and AI replies on the left in dark grey bubbles. Messages should fade in with a slight bounce animation. Include a text input at the bottom for typing questions and display quick question prompts for inspiration. Support follow-up questions and 'New Chat' to reset the session. Implement based on the existing Chat (v2) JSX design. Mobile-first, responsive down to 375px. Standalone session — no persistence required.

As a user, I want the Chat page to send my typed question to the backend AI API and display the AI coaching reply in real-time. Connect the Chat (v2) frontend to the POST /api/chat backend endpoint. Handle loading states, error states, and ensure smooth message animations on reply arrival. Keep session standalone — no persistence. Ensure response latency feels under 2 seconds from the user's perspective.

As a user, I want to see suggested quick career questions at the bottom of the Home and Chat pages (e.g. 'How to start a business in India?', 'Prepare me for an accounting interview', 'How to earn ₹50,000/month online'). Clicking a quick question should populate the chat input and trigger the AI coaching flow. Hovering over quick questions should cause a subtle gold glow effect (micro-interaction). Questions should be curated and relevant to Indian career contexts.

As a user, I want to click the 'New Chat' button at the top right to start a completely fresh standalone session, clearing all current messages and resetting the chat interface to its initial state. No data should be persisted. Ensure the reset is instant and the UI returns to the default empty chat state with quick questions visible.

As a user, I want to see a dynamic gold thread animation on the homepage that visually connects the chatbot input to the AI reply bubbles. When typing, a glowing gold thread should emerge from the input box and weave across the screen to deliver the reply. The background should subtly darken when the user starts typing to focus attention on the chat. All animations should be smooth and performant on mobile devices.
