How this site is built — which is, fittingly, with the tools it’s about.
- Generator: Hugo — a single Go binary, minimal dependencies (a security-minded choice about supply-chain surface).
- Design: hand-authored, not a theme. The “Structured Ledger” palette with Inter Tight + JetBrains Mono, self-hosted — no third-party font requests.
- Hosting: Cloudflare Pages, deployed from a private repo via GitHub Actions (push model). Every build runs a deterministic gate — HTML structure, unique IDs, WCAG AA contrast — before it ships.
- Email: an owned list on a Cloudflare Worker + Resend. No third-party newsletter service.
- Analytics: Cloudflare Web Analytics — cookieless, no consent banner, no tracking.
- Built with: Agent M (the agent harness) and Crickets (agent-safety primitives) — the tools this blog is about.
