Shipping and operating my own product in public — one jar serving two hosts, making it findable, dropping experiments into it, shipping a free CV builder off the side.
I got annoyed at 'free' CV builders that paywall the download button, so I built one that is actually free: a guided wizard with a live A4 preview, French and English, and a PDF that never touches my server. Here is the product thinking, the architecture, and the near-outage a code review caught.
A 5 minute experiment: wiring Alibaba's page-agent into my career site and pointing it at DeepSeek, so the whole UI takes orders in plain English. How it works under the hood, what its reasoning traces actually look like, and why I kept it strictly local.
A Domain property covers your apex and every subdomain from a single DNS TXT record — if you place it right. Here is the split-field mistake that fails the first verify, and the one command that catches it before you click.
AI agents are a new kind of reader, and they don't want your rendered HTML. llms.txt is a tiny Markdown convention that hands them a clean index instead. Here's what it is, why it matters now, and how I wired it into my own Spring Boot site, with one URL path serving two different files by host.
How I added a public, server-rendered blog to a login-gated CV site without a second app or container — one jar, two hostnames, and a host-dispatch filter.
