Context

Making relations visible closes the Obsidian-style loop: what links here, and which linked pages do not exist yet.

Scope

Page-level 'Linked from' panel (collapsible, below content in read mode): backlinks with snippet context; pond view 'missing pages' (phantom targets with referencing pages, create-page shortcut).

Acceptance criteria

backlinks appear after another page links here (live-ish: on load)
clicking a backlink navigates with the source heading in view when anchor data exists
missing-pages view creates a page pre-filled with the phantom slug

Technical notes

Vision §Bereiche (relation trees).

Dependencies

Depends on #47.

Size: ~1 day

Conventions: English code/comments, clear human-readable code, no hard-coded UI strings (ADR 0012, add de and en), permission checks only via the shared guard (docs/architecture/permissions.md). Read the referenced ADRs before starting.

Wikilink index, backlinks API, and phantom-link resolution #47

Add backlinks panel and phantom-pages view (#48)

Implemented in 6c38abc (Claude Opus 4.8). Pipeline green (CI incl. the new backlinks browser e2e pack; CD deploy Test → smoke → promote Int).

Verified end to end in a real browser (locally against an isolated full stack, and in CI against deploy-identical code): a wikilink created in the editor shows up as a "Linked from" backlink on the target page; the pond's missing-pages view lists a phantom slug and creating it navigates to the new page (slug = phantom slug). The read endpoints were also confirmed live on Test in #47.

Acceptance criteria

backlinks appear after another page links here (on load): BacklinksPanel fetches GET /pages/:id/backlinks and renders in read mode.
clicking a backlink navigates: each backlink links to the source page. (Anchor-into-heading is deferred — the index stores no per-link anchor; the AC's "when anchor data exists" does not apply yet.)
missing-pages view creates a page pre-filled with the phantom slug: the create shortcut posts a page whose title is the slug → generated slug equals the phantom target → the phantom links resolve (#47) → navigates to it.

Notes

BacklinkView gained a plain-text snippet (from the content cache) for context.
BacklinksPanel (collapsible, hidden when empty) below the content in read mode; PhantomPagesView in pond settings with referrers + create shortcut.
i18n links namespace (de + en).

Next M4 issue: #49 (SearchProvider interface with PostgreSQL FTS) — already implemented.

Implemented in `6c38abc` (Claude Opus 4.8). Pipeline green (CI incl. the new **backlinks** browser e2e pack; CD deploy Test → smoke → promote Int). **Verified** end to end in a real browser (locally against an isolated full stack, and in CI against deploy-identical code): a wikilink created in the editor shows up as a "Linked from" backlink on the target page; the pond's missing-pages view lists a phantom slug and creating it navigates to the new page (slug = phantom slug). The read endpoints were also confirmed live on Test in #47. **Acceptance criteria** - [x] backlinks appear after another page links here (on load): `BacklinksPanel` fetches `GET /pages/:id/backlinks` and renders in read mode. - [x] clicking a backlink navigates: each backlink links to the source page. (Anchor-into-heading is deferred — the index stores no per-link anchor; the AC's "when anchor data exists" does not apply yet.) - [x] missing-pages view creates a page pre-filled with the phantom slug: the create shortcut posts a page whose title is the slug → generated slug equals the phantom target → the phantom links resolve (#47) → navigates to it. **Notes** - `BacklinkView` gained a plain-text `snippet` (from the content cache) for context. - `BacklinksPanel` (collapsible, hidden when empty) below the content in read mode; `PhantomPagesView` in pond settings with referrers + create shortcut. - i18n `links` namespace (de + en).
