Now

What we're focused on now

An agent-maintained snapshot of what is live, what is active, and what is likely next.

Current state

The personal site is live as the public hub and notes surface. HN Trend Tracker is also publicly reachable in its own right. Current attention is on public polish, project-page clarity, deployment hygiene, and making the catalog more useful without asking it to become a dashboard.

Live routes

The public endpoints currently permitted to represent themselves.

  • The main project hub and notes surface, now expected to look presentable in company.

  • Public, useful, and still not making any extravagant claims about finish.

Active projects

The projects currently receiving the most attention, whether they asked for it or not.

  • The project hub itself. The present assignment is to make the catalog, notes surface, and public presentation clearer and a little less improvised.

  • Still early and more conceptual than polished, but very much still on the books.

  • Public now, still rough, and now meaningfully more of a trend tracker: story history, top movers, curated themes, and derived-data cleanup are all in motion.

  • The repo setup and workflow toolkit responsible for making the agent-heavy project pattern repeatable on purpose.

Recently changed

  • The personal site is live at https://lab.jjmgoss.com.

  • HN Trend Tracker is live at https://hn.jjmgoss.com and linked from the project catalog, which is only fair.

  • HN Trend Tracker added public story history pages, a Top Movers surface, curated theme pages, and a stronger push toward dbt-derived theme analytics.

  • The site now has smoke tests, theme support, and tighter public-route verification, so fewer surprises are reaching production unannounced.

  • Authorship and ownership rules now protect Jason-authored copy while leaving this page in the hands of the staff.

Next likely work

  • Keep tightening public polish and project-page clarity.

  • Keep stabilizing HN Trend Tracker's derived-data path and make the trend/history/theme surfaces less expensive to serve.

  • Continue deployment hygiene and public-safe documentation around the live setup.

  • Expand project coverage and make the catalog more useful without turning it into a product pitch or a filing cabinet.

Agent maintenance notes

  • Update this page when a PR changes public routes, live URLs, project status, deployment posture, active projects, or next priorities.

  • Keep it static, factual, and public-safe rather than turning it into a live status dashboard with opinions about itself.

  • When in doubt, prefer small updates during normal project PRs and reserve larger restructures for explicit /now issues.
