Actual payment architecture
Stripe handles money. Prolifica handles license state.
The website return pages are informational and recovery-oriented. The extension remains responsible for starting checkout, polling status, and syncing the local tier.

1
Checkout session
Extension calls `create-checkout` with price and plan ID. Stripe receives the customer and subscription request.
2
Hosted return
Stripe returns to `/prolifica/checkout-success?session_id={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}` or `/prolifica/checkout-cancel`.
3
Subscription sync
Supabase Stripe Sync Engine mirrors Stripe subscription data into the database.
4
License refresh
Prolifica polls `get_my_subscription_status()` and syncs the local tier through licenseManager.
Return URL note
Checkout success should include `session_id`; cancel is a neutral recovery page with no charge completed.
