-This is an EmDash site -- a CMS built on Astro with a full admin UI.
-
-## Commands
-
-```bash
-pnpm dev # Start the Astro dev server
-npx emdash types # Regenerate TypeScript types from a running site
-```
-
-The admin UI is at `http://localhost:4321/_emdash/admin`.
-
-## Key Files
-
-| File | Purpose |
-| ------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `astro.config.mjs` | Astro config with `emdash()` integration, database, and storage |
-| `src/live.config.ts` | EmDash loader registration (boilerplate -- don't modify) |
-| `seed/seed.json` | Schema definition + demo content (collections, fields, taxonomies, menus, widgets) |
-| `emdash-env.d.ts` | Generated types for collections (auto-regenerated on dev server start) |
-| `src/layouts/Base.astro` | Base layout with EmDash wiring (menus, search, page contributions) |
-| `src/pages/` | Astro pages -- all server-rendered |
-
-## Skills
-
-Agent skills are in `.agents/skills/`. Load them when working on specific tasks:
-
-- **building-emdash-site** -- Querying content, rendering Portable Text, schema design, seed files, site features (menus, widgets, search, SEO, comments, bylines). Start here.
-- **creating-plugins** -- Building EmDash plugins with hooks, storage, admin UI, API routes, and Portable Text block types.
-- **emdash-cli** -- CLI commands for content management, seeding, type generation, and visual editing flow.
-
-## Documentation
-
-The EmDash docs are available as an MCP server at `https://docs.emdashcms.com/mcp`. When you need to verify an API, hook, config option, field type, or pattern, call `search_docs` against the live documentation rather than relying on training-data recall. The docs reflect current behaviour; assumptions may not.
-
-This template ships with `.mcp.json`, `.cursor/mcp.json`, and `.vscode/mcp.json` so Claude Code, Cursor, and VS Code auto-discover the docs server. Other tools (OpenCode, Windsurf, etc.) need a manual one-time setup -- see [docs.emdashcms.com/docs-mcp](https://docs.emdashcms.com/docs-mcp).
-
-## Rules
-
-- All content pages must be server-rendered (`output: "server"`). No `getStaticPaths()` for CMS content.
-- Image fields are objects (`{ src, alt }`), not strings. Use `` from `"emdash/ui"`.
-- `entry.id` is the slug (for URLs). `entry.data.id` is the database ULID (for API calls like `getEntryTerms`).
-- When Astro's cache is enabled, pass content-query hints to `Astro.cache.set(cacheHint)`. Use the `WithCacheHint` variants for site settings, menus, taxonomies, and widget areas rendered by cached routes.
-- Taxonomy names in queries must match the seed's `"name"` field exactly (e.g., `"category"` not `"categories"`).
-
-## This Template
-
-A blog with posts, pages, categories, tags, full-text search, and RSS. Designed for personal writing, technical writing, indie newsletters, and anything where the writing is the product. Editorial-tech aesthetic: confident sans-serif, restrained accent, real article structure with bylines and reading time.
-
-## Pages
-
-| Page | Path | What it shows |
-| ----------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| Home | `/` | Featured post hero (large image + excerpt), latest posts grid |
-| All posts | `/posts` | Article count, full post list with excerpts and tag chips |
-| Post detail | `/posts/[slug]` | Featured image, title, body, left meta column (authors + date), right TOC + search + categories gutter |
-| Search | `/search` | Full-text search UI |
-| Page | `/pages/[slug]` | Static page content (Portable Text) |
-| Category | `/category/[slug]` | Posts filtered by category |
-| Tag | `/tag/[slug]` | Posts filtered by tag |
-| RSS | `/rss.xml` | Generated feed |
-
-## Schema
-
-- `posts` collection: `title`, `featured_image`, `content` (Portable Text), `excerpt` (text).
-- `pages` collection: `title`, `content` (Portable Text). Used for `/about` etc.
-- Taxonomies: `category`, `tag`.
-- Single `primary` menu (Home, About, Posts by default).
-
-Site settings have `title` and `tagline` -- both render in the header / footer.
-
-## Visual character
-
-Single typeface: **Inter** on `--font-body`, used for everything including headings (`--font-heading` defaults to the body face; tighter letter-spacing on h1/h2). **JetBrains Mono** on `--font-mono` for inline code and code blocks. Body and headings share the same family; weight and size carry the hierarchy (`--font-weight-heading` 600, `--font-weight-display` 700 for h1/page titles).
-
-The brand colour is `#0066cc` (`--color-brand`) -- used for links, the post-card title hover, and the search input focus ring. There's also a secondary text colour (`--color-text-secondary`) and a `--color-muted` for meta info. Don't add a second accent.
-
-The article layout is the standout feature: a three-column reading view with a left meta column (author bylines, date), centred 680px body column, and a right gutter for search, table of contents, and categories. Don't flatten that into one column on desktop -- the layout signals "this is something to read".
-
-## Customisation
-
-Design tokens live in `src/styles/tokens.css` with their default values. To restyle the site, override tokens in `src/styles/theme.css` -- declarations there are unlayered, so they always beat the `@layer base` defaults. Don't edit `tokens.css` or `Base.astro` for visual changes.
-
-Colours are defined with `light-dark(, )`, so each token carries both modes. Overriding with a plain colour changes light and dark at once; use `light-dark()` in the override to keep them distinct. There is no separate dark palette to maintain.
-
-Webfonts are configured in `astro.config.mjs` under `fonts:`. To swap the body face, change the `name:` for the entry bound to `cssVariable: "--font-body"`. Good alternatives: Geist, IBM Plex Sans, Söhne (if you have a licence), Public Sans. If you want a serif-bodied blog, swap to a humanist serif like Source Serif, Crimson Pro, or Lora -- but then also raise `--font-size-base` to `1.0625rem` for readability. To give headings their own face (or use a system font) without touching the font pipeline, override `--font-heading` or `--font-body` in `theme.css`.
-
-CSS variables worth knowing (see `tokens.css` for the full list):
-
-- `--color-brand`, `--color-brand-hover`, `--color-on-brand`, `--color-brand-ring`
-- `--color-bg`, `--color-bg-subtle`, `--color-surface`, `--color-text`, `--color-text-secondary`, `--color-muted`, `--color-border`, `--color-border-subtle`
-- `--font-body`, `--font-heading`, `--font-mono`
-- `--font-weight-heading` (600) / `--font-weight-display` (700) -- heading weights; lower them if you switch to a serif
-- `--tracking-tight` / `--tracking-snug` / `--tracking-wide` / `--tracking-wider` -- letter-spacing tokens used across headings and meta labels
-- `--content-width` (680px) -- article body column
-- `--wide-width` (1200px) -- max container
-- `--gutter-width` (200px) -- right sidebar (TOC) on article pages
-- `--meta-col-width` (180px) -- left meta column on article pages
-- `--avatar-size-{xs,sm,md,lg}` -- byline avatar sizes at different scales
-
-## What not to do
-
-- Don't add a second accent colour or coloured section backgrounds. The page should be black, white, and one blue.
-- Don't replace Inter with a display sans (Bebas, Anton, etc.). Headings rely on weight contrast, not novelty faces.
-- Don't collapse the article gutter on desktop -- it's part of the reading experience.
-- Don't use stock blog copy ("Welcome to my blog", "Stay tuned for more"). Write a real tagline that says what this blog is about.
-- Don't seed the home page with three identical placeholder posts. If you only have one real post, show one real post.
-- Comments are enabled on posts and rendered on the post detail page. Configure moderation before publishing the site, or remove `commentsEnabled` and the comments UI together.

+# Contributing to potluck
+
+potluck started as EmDash's `cloudflare:blog` template
+(`pnpm create emdash@latest`); it's part of
+[the capsite goal tree](../capsite-checklist.md), where it is the site
+that publishes the weekly roundup.
+
+## How it's put together
+
+- **Issues** are the `issues` collection
+ ([seed/issues.json](seed/issues.json)): `title`, `week` (an ISO week,
+ `2026-W40`), `dek` (one-line summary), `body` (Portable Text). The
+ slug is the week, lowercased: `/issues/2026-w40`.
+ [issues-sketch.md](issues-sketch.md) is the dry run behind the three
+ sample issues: real public bookmarks, editorial lines marked *draft*.
+- **Pages:** home and `/issues` list issues
+ ([src/pages/issues/](src/pages/issues/)); `/tag/` lists issues
+ by diigo tag; search and `/rss.xml` cover issues. The `posts`
+ collection and its pages are the template's, still in place.
+- **Microformats:** an issue list is an `h-feed` of `h-entry`s; an
+ issue is an `h-entry` (`p-name`, `dt-published`, `p-summary`,
+ `e-content`). In issue bodies,
+ [CiteLink.astro](src/components/CiteLink.astro) marks off-site links
+ as `h-cite` and `/tag/` links as rel-tag `p-category`.
+- **Look:** plain HTML, after kmjn.org's
+ [Plain HTML with a few bureaucratic gestures](https://www.kmjn.org/notes/modern_plain_html.html):
+ system fonts (no webfonts), one ~800px column, links in the text
+ color with a dotted underline. Restyle in
+ [src/styles/theme.css](src/styles/theme.css), which overrides the
+ defaults in `tokens.css` (unlayered, so it always wins); don't edit
+ `tokens.css` or `Base.astro` for visual changes. Colors use
+ `light-dark(, )`.
+
+## Seeds
+
+[seed/seed.json](seed/seed.json) (site settings, menus, widgets, the
+template's collections) is applied on the first request to an empty
+database. [seed/issues.json](seed/issues.json) is separate:
+`pnpm seed:issues` applies it to the local D1 database, which exists
+after the dev server's first request. Run it with the dev server
+stopped.
+
+## Checks
+
+```sh
+pnpm typecheck # astro check
+pnpm build
+```
+
+## EmDash rules
+
+- All content pages are server-rendered (`output: "server"`); no
+ `getStaticPaths()` for CMS content.
+- Image fields are objects (`{ src, alt }`), not strings; render with
+ `` from `"emdash/ui"`.
+- `entry.id` is the slug (for URLs); `entry.data.id` is the database
+ ULID (for API calls like `getEntryTerms`).
+- When Astro's cache is enabled, pass query hints to
+ `Astro.cache.set(cacheHint)`.
+- Taxonomy names in queries match the seed's `"name"` exactly (`"tag"`,
+ not `"tags"`).
+- `npx emdash types` regenerates `emdash-env.d.ts` from a running site
+ (the dev server also regenerates it on start).
+
+The EmDash docs are an MCP server at `https://docs.emdashcms.com/mcp`
+(wired up in `.mcp.json`, `.cursor/mcp.json`, `.vscode/mcp.json`).
+Check them rather than recalling APIs from memory.
+
+## Deploying
+
+```sh
+pnpm wrangler login
+pnpm deploy
+```
+
+The first deploy provisions the D1 database and R2 bucket named in
+[wrangler.jsonc](wrangler.jsonc). See
+[Deploy to Cloudflare](https://docs.emdashcms.com/deployment/cloudflare/).
+
+## For agents
+
+`AGENTS.md` is a symlink to this file. capsite's
+[working rules](../AGENTS.md) apply here too (the dev server is the
+user's to start and stop). EmDash skills are in `.agents/skills/`:
+`building-emdash-site` (start here), `creating-plugins`, `emdash-cli`.

-# EmDash Blog Template (Cloudflare)
+# potluck
-A clean, minimal blog built with [EmDash](https://github.com/emdash-cms/emdash) and deployed on Cloudflare Workers with D1 and R2.
+A weekly zine of what you found elsewhere: each issue is one ISO week
+(`/issues/2026-w40`) of bookmarks with a few words of editorial around
+them. Everyone brings a dish. The bookmarks come from your own diigo
+account, so the web you read becomes something you publish on your own
+site ([PESOS](https://indieweb.org/PESOS)). For now issues are put
+together by hand. Pulling a week from diigo-cache is next.
-[](https://deploy.workers.cloudflare.com/?url=https://github.com/emdash-cms/templates/tree/main/blog-cloudflare)
+Plain HTML that's easy to read, with
+[microformats](https://microformats.org/wiki/h-entry) so feed readers
+and IndieWeb tools see each issue as an `h-entry` and each bookmark as
+an `h-cite`. It's an [EmDash](https://docs.emdashcms.com/) site, so you
+edit issues in a real admin UI, and it runs on Cloudflare Workers.
