Marketing site foundation shipped under site/: pnpm, self-hosted Archivo / Public Sans / IBM Plex Mono, Plausible analytics hook, Playwright harness, sitemap integration, and content honesty asserts. Still Phase 0 static output - no product launch.

Flagship role is planned, not live. Product shell (frontend M0/M1) can list hires and freeze a hire package at hire time against a provisional rate card, but no customer-facing inbox automation runs yet. Status stamp on the deposit page is honest: in development.

Secondary roster role. No research automation shipped. Dogfooding intent is desk research and source-linked briefs for our own work first; nothing customer-facing yet.
2026-07-15
Secondary roster role. Planned for long-form drafts and build-in-public posts. No content pipeline or customer hire path yet; this log is still founder-written.
2026-07-15
Secondary roster role. Planned for scheduled posts and light community hygiene. Not built; listed only as a planned hire on the deposit page.

Phase 0 sitemap narrowed to honest inventory: home deposit page (S1-S7), /updates, /refund-policy, privacy, terms, and llms.txt. Founder identity named on the deposit page.

Next.js product shell now lists employees, freezes the hire package at hire time, and shows the provisional rate card. Local concept API only - not customer-facing launch.

Astro static site under site/ with founding-member deposit CTA (Stripe Payment Link when configured), sample timesheet honesty rule, and privacy/terms stubs.
