 <!-- AC:END -->

+## Implementation Plan
+
+<!-- SECTION:PLAN:BEGIN -->
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### 1. Create D1 Database
+```bash
+wrangler d1 create email-collector
+```
+
+### 2. Create Schema File
+Create `worker/email-collector-schema.sql`:
+
+```sql
+-- Email Collector Schema
+-- Cross-site email subscription management
+
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS subscribers (
+  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+  email TEXT NOT NULL,
+  email_hash TEXT NOT NULL,  -- For duplicate checking
+  source_site TEXT NOT NULL,
+  source_page TEXT,
+  referrer TEXT,
+  ip_country TEXT,
+  subscribed_at TEXT DEFAULT (datetime('now')),
+  verified INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+  verified_at TEXT,
+  unsubscribed INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+  unsubscribed_at TEXT,
+  metadata TEXT  -- JSON for custom fields
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS verification_tokens (
+  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+  email TEXT NOT NULL,
+  token TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
+  expires_at TEXT NOT NULL,
+  used INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+  created_at TEXT DEFAULT (datetime('now'))
+);
+
+-- Rate limiting table
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS rate_limits (
+  ip_hash TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+  request_count INTEGER DEFAULT 1,
+  window_start TEXT DEFAULT (datetime('now'))
+);
+
+-- Indexes
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_subs_email_hash ON subscribers(email_hash);
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_subs_site ON subscribers(source_site);
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_subs_page ON subscribers(source_site, source_page);
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_subs_verified ON subscribers(verified);
+CREATE UNIQUE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_subs_unique ON subscribers(email_hash, source_site);
+CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_tokens_token ON verification_tokens(token);
+```
+
+### 3. Create Worker Endpoints
+Create `worker/emailCollector.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+// POST /api/subscribe
+// GET /api/verify/:token
+// POST /api/unsubscribe
+// GET /api/emails/export (auth required)
+// GET /api/emails/stats
+```
+
+### 4. Export Formats
+- CSV: `email,source_site,source_page,subscribed_at,verified`
+- JSON: Full object array
+- Mailchimp: CSV with required headers
+
+### 5. Admin Authentication
+- Use simple API key for export endpoint
+- Store in Worker secret: `EMAIL_ADMIN_KEY`
+
+### 6. Integration
+Add to each site's signup form:
+```javascript
+fetch('https://canvas.jeffemmett.com/api/subscribe', {
+  method: 'POST',
+  body: JSON.stringify({
+    email: 'user@example.com',
+    source_site: 'mycofi.earth',
+    source_page: '/newsletter'
+  })
+})
+```
