devlogauto

Shipped as 008e3f3.

What Changed

This pass creates the developer vlog itself: a repo-backed publication channel for build notes, deployment updates, and project history.

  • Worked in developer vlog visual assets.
  • Worked in blog rendering.
  • Worked in crew and lifepath.
  • Worked in test coverage.
  • Worked in automation/tooling.

Why It Matters

The point is to keep the project understandable as it ships, so build decisions remain visible to players, collaborators, and future development passes.

Implementation Notes

The commit message for this slice was:

Markdown devlog patterned after Technonomicon/Sanctum blog shape:
- content/blog/*.md with front matter; public/blog/ PHP renderer + CSS
- dev.* host serves blog at site root (public/index.php host routing)
- 8 back-dated posts (genesis through slice #4) + devlog launch entry
- tools/devblog-from-commit.php + GitHub Action posts on every main push
- Tests: devblog load/sort (46/46 total)

Ada handoff: dev.the-last-job.decisionsciencecorp.com + game apex provisioning.
