Chat / Client Identity
Mar 2026Replace IP-based identity with clientId throughout the chat system. This makes flag, block, delete-by-user, and rename all operate per-browser rather than per-IP, so users on the same network are independent.
Chat / Admin Help Command
Mar 2026Add an admin-only `/help` slash command to the chat that shows available commands as a system notice. Build a command registry so `/help` auto-generates from registered commands.
Chat / Admin Moderation Tools
Mar 2026Add three admin moderation features to the chat: a delete message button, a flag/ban button, and a `/blocked` command to list all blocked users.
Chat / Admin Help Command

Chat / Chat Auto Page Context
Feb 2026Silently attach the current page path to every chat message automatically, removing the user-facing page/general context selector entirely.
Chat / Chat Auto Page Context
Feb 2026The chat currently has a user-facing dropdown letting visitors choose between "page" and "general" context when sending a message. This is unnecessary UI complexity. The right behavior is to silently attach the current page path to every message automatically.
Content / Markdown Plugins
Feb 2026Restore `[!TIP]`/`[!NOTE]`/etc. callouts, heading anchors, TOC generation, and scrollable tables to the v-2026 branch.
Content / Markdown Plugins
Feb 2026The `v-2026` branch dropped several markdown processing plugins that existed on `main`, resulting in:

Layout / Collection Pagination
Feb 2026Add static pagination (50 items/page) to all collection index and category pages using Astro's built-in `paginate()`.
Content / Post Url Nesting
Feb 2026Posts and categories share the same URL segment under `/{collection}/`, creating collision risk. Posts also don't display tags on their individual pages.
Content / Post Url Nesting
Feb 2026Nest post pages under `/{collection}/post/{id}` to avoid collision with category routes, and display tags on post pages.
Layout / Command Palette Enhancements
Feb 2026Enhance the command palette with full-text content search via Pagefind, replace tags with categories, show per-row collection + category labels, and give links a unique visual style.
Layout / Command Palette Enhancements
Feb 2026Four enhancements to the command palette (Cmd+K):
Styling / Color Standardization
Feb 2026The site uses three accent colors (neon, teal, ice) without consistent semantic rules. Neon appears on both headings and hover states, teal is used for both links and active nav items, and ice is underutilized. Users can't reliably tell what's clickable vs what's decorative.
Styling / Color Standardization
Feb 2026Standardize color usage so neon = emphasis, teal = interactive, ice = active/selected, and subheadings use text color with font hierarchy.
Styling / Color Standardization
Feb 2026Teal (#00e5a0) is used for both links and subheaders, making it unclear what is clickable vs decorative.
Styling / Card Component
Feb 2026Create a generic Card component that exposes all card variants used across the site. Replace inline card markup in CollectionGrid and the home page with a single shared component.
Styling / Card Component
Feb 2026Extract all card variants from CollectionGrid and the home page into a shared Card component system.
Code Quality / Remove Apply
Feb 2026The codebase uses `@apply` extensively (204 usages across 9 files) to compose Tailwind utilities inside CSS classes. This creates issues:
Code Quality / Remove Apply
Feb 2026Replace all `@apply` directives with inline Tailwind utility classes on elements, delete separate CSS files, and keep only minimal `<style>` blocks for non-inlineable CSS.
Styling / Responsive Tailwind
Feb 2026Replace all raw CSS `@media` queries with Tailwind responsive utilities and implement mobile-first responsive layouts (single-column mobile, two-column tablet, three-column desktop).
Styling / Responsive Tailwind
Feb 2026Replace all raw CSS `@media` queries with Tailwind responsive utility classes. Add proper mobile and tablet layouts using a mobile-first approach. Ignore existing mobile drawer patterns and build fresh.
Layout / Spotify Player
Feb 2026Add a compact Spotify playlist player to the left sidebar that persists across page transitions.
Layout / Spotify Player
Feb 2026Embed a compact Spotify playlist player in the left sidebar so visitors can listen to music while browsing the site. No autoplay.

Layout / Home Page Redesign
Feb 2026Redesign the home page content to be compelling and engaging while keeping the live-window component. Replace the current minimal hero ("Work & Play" / "A creative's catalog") with three sections: a conversational hero, a featured projects strip, and a visual site evolution timeline.
Layout / Home Page Redesign
Feb 2026Theme-match the live-window component on the home page, fix a font-loading bug with View Transitions, expose clock text color as a customizable property, center home content, and update the weather font.
