Platinum books 24/7 in every room. After hours, an engineer is required.

Live on app.therecording.club since Oct 5, with two gaps closed Oct 6. Every room, every booking path members can reach.

🎯 How it works for a Platinum member

• ✅ Any room, any hour, any day, Mondays included
• ✅ Inside studio hours: engineer optional, same as before
• ✅ Outside studio hours: "No preference" engineer is auto-added and can't be removed
• ✅ A booking that starts in hours and runs past close counts as after hours
• ✅ Server refuses any after-hours Platinum booking with no engineer (400, engineer_required_after_hours)
• ✅ Miami satellite: Alex Schindler's engineer service is always on the booking, so it passes
• ✅ Rescheduling into after hours gets the same check
• ✅ Other tiers unchanged: Mondays closed, hours enforced

📅 Studio hours in production (fact, read Oct 5)

One hours record for the whole club, so every LA room uses the same line. Edit it in admin and the rule follows.

📊 Proven on production tonight (QA Platinum account)

Raw API proof. Test bookings cancelled, invoices deleted, calendar events removed.

⚠️ Staff can still override

• ⚠️ Admin create, admin reschedule, admin extend: no hours or engineer check (staff decision)
• ⚠️ Google Calendar import: no check
• ⚠️ Jacob's booking tool refuses every Platinum after-hours booking, since it can't add an engineer

💰 Engineer cost

• "No preference" engineer bills $30/hr. A named engineer bills their own rate. Unchanged.
