Daily overview – 2025-10-15

Work Summary

Made progress on infrastructure and automation across wallykroeker.com and TaskMan projects, plus some overdue workspace maintenance.

wallykroeker.com

Completed the project hub and timeline system—the foundation for surfacing project history in one place. This creates a centralized view where each project gets its own page with an aggregated timeline pulling from both blog posts and build log milestones. The three-gate publishing system (status/reviewed/sensitivity) is now functional, allowing draft content to coexist with public material.

TaskMan

Implemented the daily publishing loop integration with N8N running in WSL. This automation will handle commit aggregation and daily summary generation without manual intervention. Also fixed a PATH variable collision in the rollup script that was causing deployment failures.

The publishing loop is the core piece of the ADHD-friendly workflow—offloading repetitive documentation tasks to automation so cognitive effort stays focused on actual work.

Office Cleaning

Cleared dishes and cups from the workspace (1/7 office cleaning subtasks). Small maintenance task, but workspace clarity tends to correlate with mental clarity.

Technical Details

Project Hub System (wallykroeker.com)

  • Centralized project overview pages with timeline aggregation
  • Filters content based on frontmatter gates (status, reviewed, sensitivity)
  • Dynamic routing via /projects/[slug]
  • Backward-compatible with existing content defaults

Publishing Loop (TaskMan)

  • N8N workflow automation for daily commit rollup
  • WSL integration for local development environment
  • Automated milestone detection via commit conventions
  • Human review gates prevent auto-publishing

Next Steps

Code:

  • Complete production AI task breakdown workflow in TaskMan
  • Implement weekly task summary automation
  • Populate project hubs with historical content

Workspace:

  • Continue office cleaning momentum (6/7 subtasks remaining)
