Publishing Workflow

Every post goes through automated checks before publication. Pull requests are gated by:

• Build validation
• Content linting (no prohibited characters)
• Tagline placement rules
• Alt text requirements
• Link checking
• Lighthouse accessibility and performance scores
• Secrets scanning

Nothing publishes until a human approves it. Bots draft, check and open pull requests.

Design

The design follows the Lamp and Terminal brand kit. Dark mode is graphite with amber, light mode is a pale blue gray page, and the only dash on the site is the drawn slanted bar in the logo. Headings use Bricolage Grotesque, body text uses Hanken Grotesk, and code uses Spline Sans Mono. All three fonts are self hosted under the SIL Open Font License.
