  • Lab note #56: About page: reworded my role in Mnemonic decisions

    The ask Paul asked to reword the About page line about his role in decisions at Mnemonic: technical decisions are made in consultation with him, staffing comes out, and technology is listed before business direction. What changed How SSH to openclaw01 and WP-CLI through ops/wp.sh, with a snapshot first. Staging only; production picks it up…

  • Lab note #55: Going public at sudowin.dev: staging, deploys and slimmer backups

    The ask Take the site public at sudowin.dev without exposing openclaw01, keep every change reversible, stop media from bloating git, and update the About page so it describes how the site works now. What changed How Claude (Cowork) over SSH: WP-CLI on staging through ops/wp.sh, rsync and mysqldump to production, git filter-repo for the history…

  • Lab note #54: Breadcrumbs follow-ups: cleaner trails, shorter sim rig addresses, and coverage everywhere

    The ask Finish the three follow-ups from the breadcrumbs session: stop the trail repeating itself on lab notes, shorten the sim rig addresses so they read /sim-rig/tactile-feedback/ rather than /sim-rig/sim-rig-tactile-feedback/, and add breadcrumbs to search results, archives and the 404 page. What changed How SSH to openclaw01, a snapshot before each of the four commits…

  • Lab note #53: Breadcrumbs everywhere, and the sim rig pages get real parents

    The ask Breadcrumbs on every page, so a visitor can always see where they are in the site, plus the question of whether that needs a plugin. While planning it I found that the six sim rig hardware pages sit at the top level in WordPress even though the menus place them under My Sim…

  • Lab note #52: Skills page: Active Directory and Windows Server

    The ask Add Active Directory and Windows Server to the Skills page, in a way that reads as deep, hands-on experience with Windows servers and Windows clients without ever using the word “expert”. Also remove the one existing use of that word, the “Egnyte (expert)” label, because it comes across as boasting. What changed How…

  • Lab note #51: Bake-off R2: OpenCode with MiMo v2.6 Flash entry

    The ask Round 2 of the harness bake-off: rewrite the AI & Automation page as my entry. It had to cover every AI harness I use, how they connect to my tools and my Linux lab host, how the self-hosted agents remember, how I work, and every project already on the live page. What changed…

  • Lab note #50: Bake-off R2: OpenCode with Qwen 3.8 Flash Medium entry

    The ask Bake-off Round 2: rewrite the AI & Automation page as my entry, covering the harnesses I use, how they connect, how the self-hosted agents remember, how the site’s change process works, and everything already on the live page.

  • Lab note #49: Bake-off R2: OpenCode with DeepSeek v4.1 High entry

    The ask Rewrite the AI & Automation page for Round 2 so a stranger can see which AI harnesses I run, how they connect to my tools and my Linux lab host, how the self-hosted agents remember, how I work, and every project already on the page. Research only the sources the task allows, and…

  • Lab note #48: Bake-off R2: ChatGPT with Sol 6.1 High entry

    The ask I asked for a Round 2 AI & Automation entry that explains my current harnesses, integrations, agent memory and working practices to someone meeting me for the first time. The entry needed to retain every project from the existing page and use only the round’s permitted sources. What changed How I used SSH…

  • Lab note #47: Bake-off R2: Claude with Opus 5.5 High entry

    The ask Round 2 of the bake-off: rewrite the AI & Automation page as a child of the Round 2 page, covering every harness I use, how they connect, how OpenClaw and Hermes remember, how I work, and every project already on the live page, using only the sources the task allows and nothing from…
