Captured 27 finds from the daily sweep across 15 sources (Daring
Fireball, HN Show HN, Kottke, Wallpaper, Outbound, Uncommon Goods,
Kikkerland, BIFL, Quote Investigator, Marginalian, r/dadjokes,
icanhazdadjoke, r/shortcuts, Recomendo, Messy Nessy) plus one user-
suggested find (valchoose-barf-bags) and 11 additional reader-
suggestion finds (appcleaner, blip, cleanmykeyboard, clocker,
daisydisk, ia-writer, launchos, macfolio, mos, vivid, wallspace).
New reviews: monitorcontrol (graduated from today's reader
suggestion, category interface) and blip (graduated from today's
reader suggestion, category indie). Both registered in hero.ts.
Site tooling: new dev-only POST /api/set-pick middleware that
rewrites HERO_SLUG in src/pages/index.astro for the Make today's
pick action. EditConfirm reworked to support a non-copy "set-pick"
mode; EditAction takes action and slug props; the reviews template
switches the toolbar button over to the new wiring.
Log + candidate-sources updated. Two new candidates: Routinehub.co
and Moss & Fog.
- newspaper-style masthead (stats | "Unique" | About/Blog) on every page
with per-page italic subheader + last-updated date on listing pages;
sitewide 42rem reading width
- pinterest home (hero + masonry, "load more"); old list view at /index3/
- new pages: /about, /blog, /legal, /find/, /finds/, custom 404
- footer collection links now clickable; "founded" stat replaces "updated"
in the masthead
- centralised SEO component with per-page json-ld (Review, BlogPosting,
Product, Article, CollectionPage, ItemList, BreadcrumbList, etc.);
@astrojs/sitemap + @astrojs/rss; robots.txt; promoted finds canonical
to their review
- memoize getSiteStats() so the masthead/footer counts don't multiply
per-page build cost
- 25 new daily-finds captures
A small Astro + MDX blog for delightful, daily-use finds. The architecture
separates capture from publication and supports reuse:
- find/ captured items, hidden from indexes
- finds/ editorial superposts referencing find slugs in a grid
- reviews/ full-length writeups; can graduate from a find via fromFind
- posts/ regular essays
Three project-local skills under .claude/skills/ drive the pipeline:
daily-finds (capture-only sweep across sources.json), build-finds (draft
a thematic superpost), build-review (graduate a find).
sources.json carries 47 curated feeds with per-source fetch strategy
(webfetch / curl / skip) so Cloudflare-blocked sites and Reddit JSON
endpoints are handled deterministically. /sources renders a 3-column
card stream with a "Recent finds" cross-reference per source.
Seeds: 17 reviews and one superpost referencing 5 finds.
