⚠️ Database Safety Warning (Shared Pool)

The database is shared across multiple applications. Running npx prisma db push on a clean schema will drop other apps' tables. Always follow the Pull-Declare-Push-Cleanup sequence:

1. npx prisma db pull — Introspect all existing tables into schema.prisma
2. Add your TravelStudio model and its User relation
3. npx prisma db push — Safely add new tables and relations
4. Clean schema.prisma to keep only Account, Session, User, VerificationToken, TravelStudio
5. npx prisma generate — Rebuild the type-safe Prisma client
