Three arc-opening posts, each with hero and diagram:
- probation-for-models (EDGE AI 01)
- one-value-many-enforcers (AUTOMATION 01)
- six-days-of-silence (OBSERVABILITY 01)
Content: shipping-this-site + init-gating-gpu-readiness get their edited-workshop bodies (from the
NAS Published/ pass) - site frontmatter (hero/heroAlt) kept, only prose replaced.
Dossiers 004-006 (gpu-as-code, global-infra-modernisation, network-automation-fleet) were all
rendering the same generic pipeline thumbnail - added 3 tailored DossierThumb motifs (gpu die +
passthrough lanes, region globe, switch-fleet grid) via a new diagram: frontmatter field. Also
closed the dead-space gap above the tag row on short-argument cards with a faint on-theme grid
fill (::before, masked fade) instead of a flat void.
New post: broker-pattern ('An agent should never hold the key it's using') - SECURITY SERIES 02,
between secret-zero and workload-least-privilege. Hero de-watermarked from the NAS source (resized
to the calibrated 1600x1073 coordinate space, Jacobi-diffused out the Nano Banana sparkle at its
known center) via scripts/dewatermark-broker-pattern.mjs (reusable for the next 3 drafts). New
diagram/broker-pattern.svg in the house light-card palette. Inline top-of-body hero stripped per
the astro-static-site skill guard (frontmatter hero: is now the only render path).
- Add the secret-zero bootstrap-chain diagram (was a broken image ref)
- Remove the corner sparkle artifact from all six blog hero images
- Bump hero/diagram cache-bust params so the updated assets serve
outbound-only-exposure (corrected sealed-vault image) + secret-zero (the seed-
key circuit-tree, _R revision). Both verified against their prompts, optimized
to webp (17KB / ~120KB). Completes hero coverage for all 6 posts.
Add an optional hero field to the blog schema; render it on the post page and
as the index card thumbnail. Ship 4 verified Nano Banana hero images (shipping/
init-gating/authentik/workload) as optimized webp (64-134KB). Publish the
secret-zero post. (outbound hero pending — its file was a dup of shipping;
secret-zero hero pending generation.)
