dropthejase turns sharing back on - and fixes the part that was quietly broken

Sharing projects and tabular reviews with a colleague now actually grants them access, instead of failing in silence.

workflow

dropthejase has switched the sharing controls on projects and tabular reviews back on after a spell behind a "coming soon" tooltip. You can now hand a project or a review to a colleague by adding their email.

The more important move is a bug fix sitting underneath it. Until now, sharing looked like it worked - no error, no warning - but the person you shared with still couldn't get in. The list of who-has-access was being read incorrectly, so it always came back empty. dropthejase traced it to how the underlying database hands back stored data and corrected the check everywhere it mattered, so an invited colleague now genuinely lands inside the shared project or review. Note there's still no notification email - the invited person has to be told they've been added.

So what Anyone relying on this fork to share matters across a team should care: collaboration that silently excluded the other person now works.

`5623a285`	fix(api): parse shared_with jsonb string from Aurora in access checks	Jason Lee	2026-05-16	↗ GitHub
commit body Aurora Data API returns jsonb columns as raw strings. Array.isArray() on a string returns false, causing 404 for all shared project/review access. Add JSON.parse fallback in projects.ts (GET /:id, GET /:id/people), access.ts (checkProjectAccess), and tabular.ts (GET /:id/people).
