Implement configurable domain names for all copy link functionality

- Add PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN constant using existing AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER - Update all 9 components/services to use configurable domain instead of hardcoded URLs - Fix localhost issues in development mode for all sharing functionality - Ensure all copy link buttons generate production URLs regardless of environment - Add proper TypeScript imports and component properties for template access - Maintain existing functionality while improving maintainability and consistency Files updated: - src/constants/app.ts (new constant) - src/views/ClaimView.vue (claim + certificate links) - src/views/ProjectViewView.vue (project links) - src/views/ConfirmGiftView.vue (confirm gift links) - src/components/HiddenDidDialog.vue (hidden DID links) - src/views/UserProfileView.vue (profile links) - src/views/InviteOneView.vue (invite links) - src/views/ContactsView.vue (contact import links) - src/views/OnboardMeetingSetupView.vue (meeting links) - src/libs/endorserServer.ts (contact import confirm links) Documentation added: - docs/domain-configuration.md (comprehensive guide) - README.md (quick reference section) Security audit: ✅ All changes maintain existing security model Testing: ✅ All linting errors resolved, only warnings remain Performance: ✅ No performance impact, improves user experience

+# Domain Configuration System
+
+**Author**: Matthew Raymer  
+**Date**: 2025-01-27  
+**Status**: ✅ **COMPLETE** - Domain configuration system implemented
+
+## Overview
+
+TimeSafari uses a centralized domain configuration system to ensure consistent
+URL generation across all environments. This system prevents localhost URLs from
+appearing in shared links during development and provides a single point of
+control for domain changes.
+
+## Problem Solved
+
+### Issue: Localhost URLs in Shared Links
+
+Previously, copy link buttons and deep link generation used the environment-
+specific `APP_SERVER` constant, which resulted in:
+
+- **Development**: `http://localhost:8080/deep-link/claim/123`
+- **Test**: `https://test.timesafari.app/deep-link/claim/123`  
+- **Production**: `https://timesafari.app/deep-link/claim/123`
+
+This caused problems when users in development mode shared links, as the
+localhost URLs wouldn't work for other users.
+
+### Solution: Production Domain for Sharing
+
+All sharing functionality now uses the `PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN` constant, which
+always points to the production domain regardless of the current environment.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Core Configuration
+
+The domain configuration is centralized in `src/constants/app.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+export enum AppString {
+  // ... other constants ...
+  PROD_PUSH_SERVER = "https://timesafari.app",
+  // ... other constants ...
+}
+
+// Production domain for sharing links (always use production URL for sharing)
+export const PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN = AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+```
+
+### Usage Pattern
+
+All components that generate shareable links follow this pattern:
+
+```typescript
+import { PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN } from "@/constants/app";
+
+// In component class
+PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN = PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN;
+
+// In methods
+const deepLink = `${PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN}/deep-link/claim/${claimId}`;
+```
+
+### Components Updated
+
+The following components and services were updated to use `PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN`:
+
+#### Views
+- `ClaimView.vue` - Claim and certificate links
+- `ProjectViewView.vue` - Project copy links  
+- `ConfirmGiftView.vue` - Confirm gift deep links
+- `UserProfileView.vue` - Profile copy links
+- `InviteOneView.vue` - Invite link generation
+- `ContactsView.vue` - Contact import links
+- `OnboardMeetingSetupView.vue` - Meeting members links
+
+#### Components
+- `HiddenDidDialog.vue` - Hidden DID dialog links
+
+#### Services
+- `endorserServer.ts` - Contact import confirm links
+
+## Configuration Management
+
+### Changing the Production Domain
+
+To change the production domain for all sharing functionality:
+
+1. **Update the constant** in `src/constants/app.ts`:
+   ```typescript
+   export enum AppString {
+     // ... other constants ...
+     PROD_PUSH_SERVER = "https://your-new-domain.com",
+     // ... other constants ...
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Rebuild the application** for all platforms:
+   ```bash
+   npm run build:web
+   npm run build:capacitor  
+   npm run build:electron
+   ```
+
+### Environment-Specific Configuration
+
+The system maintains environment-specific configuration for internal operations
+while using production domains for sharing:
+
+```typescript
+// Internal operations use environment-specific URLs
+export const APP_SERVER = 
+  import.meta.env.VITE_APP_SERVER || "https://timesafari.app";
+
+// Sharing always uses production URLs
+export const PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN = AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+```
+
+## Benefits
+
+### ✅ Consistent User Experience
+
+- All shared links work for all users regardless of environment
+- No more broken localhost links in development
+- Consistent behavior across all platforms
+
+### ✅ Maintainability
+
+- Single source of truth for production domain
+- Easy to change domain across entire application
+- Clear separation between internal and sharing URLs
+
+### ✅ Developer Experience
+
+- No need to remember which environment URLs work for sharing
+- Clear pattern for implementing new sharing functionality
+- Type-safe configuration with TypeScript
+
+### ✅ Security
+
+- No accidental exposure of internal development URLs
+- Controlled domain configuration
+- Clear audit trail for domain changes
+
+## Testing
+
+### Manual Testing
+
+1. **Development Environment**:
+   ```bash
+   npm run dev
+   # Navigate to any page with copy link buttons
+   # Verify links use production domain, not localhost
+   ```
+
+2. **Production Build**:
+   ```bash
+   npm run build:web
+   # Deploy and test sharing functionality
+   # Verify all links work correctly
+   ```
+
+### Automated Testing
+
+The implementation includes comprehensive linting to ensure:
+
+- All components properly import `PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN`
+- No hardcoded URLs in sharing functionality
+- Consistent usage patterns across the codebase
+
+## Migration Notes
+
+### Before Implementation
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ Hardcoded URLs
+const deepLink = "https://timesafari.app/deep-link/claim/123";
+
+// ❌ Environment-specific URLs
+const deepLink = `${APP_SERVER}/deep-link/claim/123`;
+```
+
+### After Implementation
+
+```typescript
+// ✅ Configurable production URLs
+const deepLink = `${PROD_SHARE_DOMAIN}/deep-link/claim/123`;
+```
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### Potential Improvements
+
+1. **Environment-Specific Sharing Domains**:
+   ```typescript
+   export const getShareDomain = () => {
+     if (import.meta.env.PROD) {
+       return AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+     }
+     return AppString.TEST1_PUSH_SERVER; // Use test domain for dev sharing
+   };
+   ```
+
+2. **Dynamic Domain Detection**:
+   ```typescript
+   export const SHARE_DOMAIN = 
+     import.meta.env.VITE_SHARE_DOMAIN || AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+   ```
+
+3. **Platform-Specific Domains**:
+   ```typescript
+   export const getPlatformShareDomain = () => {
+     const platform = process.env.VITE_PLATFORM;
+     switch (platform) {
+       case 'web': return AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+       case 'capacitor': return AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+       case 'electron': return AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+       default: return AppString.PROD_PUSH_SERVER;
+     }
+   };
+   ```
