Trades principles get a companion deck
The Trades operations Lab entry now includes an editable ten-slide D'Workbench sales deck. It translates the public working principles into a product-facing story using anonymized Demo screens while keeping live records and application source code out of the site.
v4.19
2026-07-17 - 04:45 PHT
Homeground joins the Lab
Homeground PH now appears as an external Lab specimen: a live buyer-first property directory and lead-generation MVP with structured requirements, shortlist comparison, source visibility, and introduction routing. The project remains hosted separately; the Library only records what the experiment is testing.
v4.18
2026-07-17 - 04:30 PHT
Trades architecture study grounded
The Trades Lab entry now presents the philosophy learned from applied workflow study: durable operational memory, context-first work, explicit relationships, calendar truth, visible exceptions, bounded automation, and reconciliation. The page stays at principles level instead of turning one company’s process into a universal prescription.
v4.17
2026-07-14 - 11:55 PHT
Workbench Desk-first home
The Workbench home now reads more like a lightweight browser desk than a utility list: Resume Work, Today's Notes, Recent Captures, a manual Clipboard dock, quick tools, timers, and bookmarks lead the page while the full workspace directory stays below.
v4.16
2026-07-14 - 11:31 PHT
Workbench Desk command center
The Workbench home now acts as a portable command center for weak laptops and tablets: Alt+K command palette, quick capture, sticky scratchpad, session resume, recent workspaces, local/offline status, and copy-ready daily context.
v4.15
2026-07-14 - 09:58 PHT
Standalone favicon paths
Standalone Grimoire, Lab, and reading-room pages now use the same /library/ favicon and apple-touch-icon paths as the shared Jekyll layout, fixing deep links that could fall back to an older domain-root favicon.
v4.14
2026-07-14 - 09:32 PHT
Deep-link preview system
Site, Workbench, Lab, Grimoire, and Note deep links now get generated 1200x630 Open Graph cards instead of falling back to the generic AS image. A reusable generator updates the preview artwork and page metadata so future public pages can be kept consistent.
v4.13
2026-07-14 - 09:12 PHT
Workbench link previews
Workbench pages now use dedicated 1200x630 Open Graph cards instead of the generic AS default, with generated previews for Billing, Scheduling, Reporting, Writing, Marketing, CRM, Library Tools, Decisions, Whiteboard, Resources, and the Desk.
v4.12
2026-07-09 - 08:46 PHT
Reporting becomes an Operations workspace
Reporting moved out of the Desk tab and into Operations as its own Workbench page. The workspace now keeps the existing report templates and adds a checklist reminder formatter with H1-H3 Markdown structure, date tags, priorities, statuses, reminders, copy/download/export actions, and local-first saving.
v4.11
2026-07-08 - 11:54 PHT
Ghost, easier to read
The first-visit start-here popup moved from a dark bubble with low-contrast text to a clean white card with full-contrast type, colour-coded route spines, and a small guide tag. The one popup that interrupts to be read now earns it.
v4.10
2026-07-08 - 09:19 PHT
Lab blueprints
Two Lab pieces adopted a shared blueprint design language: gridded paper, a lead-to-cash spine, and colour-coded subsystems. The Trades CRM became a full discovery-notes / MVP-design spread — the offer mapped before it is built, since the real system lives in an operations platform rather than HTML — and the Politician Tier List was reskinned into the same language while keeping its live scoring, filters, tier board, and evidence drawer.
v4.9
2026-07-08 - 09:09 PHT
Sari2POS: data safety
A hardening pass on the store's records. Clear All Data now removes only Sari2POS keys instead of wiping the whole site; backup import validates the file and auto-saves a safety copy before replacing anything; exports carry a signature and now include restock logs; and receipts escape customer and product names. Product search is debounced, and Enter completes a cash sale.
v4.8
2026-07-08 - 08:42 PHT
Politician Tier List MVP
The parked civic concept became a playable Lab prototype with demo-only profiles, weighted scoring, tier grouping, comparison, source trails, issue-fit bottlenecks, and search visibility. The Trades CRM Lab card was softened into discovery notes so it does not overpromise before the technical spine is clear.
v4.7
2026-07-08 - 08:35 PHT
Sari2POS extraction pass
Sari2POS was split from a single-file Lab prototype into a portable HTML shell, stylesheet, and runtime bundle. A developer handoff now documents the browser contract, storage keys, and APK extraction path so future work can continue without reopening the whole prototype at once.
v4.6
2026-07-08 - 08:25 PHT
Lab cover alignment
The Lab was brought back into the same public-page visual system as Home, About, Library, Notes, and Contact: a full image cover, unified cover height, shared image fade behavior, and Lab-specific prototype content below the header instead of a detached standalone layout.
v4.5
2026-07-08 - 08:05 PHT
Lab, rebuilt as a bench
The Lab was reworked again after the first visual pass read too much like the rest of the site. It now has its own prototype-bench language: a build queue, mini POS screen, experiment shelf, status measures, and a tighter local-first identity without borrowing a public-page cover treatment.
v4.4
2026-07-08 - 07:40 PHT
Lab visual pass
The Lab received its first shared-design pass: inline styles moved into the site stylesheet, project entries were cleaned up, and the page became easier to align with the rest of the Library system.
v4.3
2026-07-07 · 18:55 PHT
Lab, clarified
The top navigation now calls the experimental side door what it is: Lab. The Lab landing page was rebuilt as a cleaner ledger of experiments, with Sari2POS, the trades CRM service experiment, and parked civic tooling separated from the Library archive and the Workbench tools.
v4.2
2026-07-07 · 18:40 PHT
Visual scale pass
A restrained typography and presentation pass brought the public pages back into one family: calmer hero sizes, tighter section heading scale, sharper card geometry, and a quieter Workbench nav and ledger rhythm.
v4.1
2026-07-07 · 18:20 PHT
Billing calculator, aligned
The Billing calculator kept its engine but lost the cockpit feel: history became the first side rail, variables moved behind a details panel, manual exchange rates show only in Currency mode, and the keyboard handler no longer captures input while the tab is hidden.
v4.0
major
2026-07-07 · 17:35 PHT
Lab and Reading Room arrive
A new Lab wing shipped for experiments like Sari2POS, while the Reading Room gained a multi-book shelf and reader for ANACHRONIZM. Projects/Library was reworked around the archive: systems built, trilogy volumes, operating memory, drafting table, and off-the-clock writing.
v3.9
2026-07-06 · 20:40 PHT
Grimoires on the Whiteboard
A new Grimoire-map template kind turns four books into editable diagrams — the automation pattern model, the orchestration layer, organizational physics, and the remote-work path. Every node deep-links to the exact section it maps to, so a board doubles as a guided reading path.
v3.8
2026-07-06 · 03:15 PHT
Wayfinding and a data escape hatch
The Workbench nav and Desk were grouped by job — Operations, Writing desk, Thinking, Reference — so the tools read at a glance instead of as one long row. Added a whole-workbench backup: export every workspace to one file and restore it on any machine. Billing and Desk views became deep-linkable.
v3.7
major
2026-07-05 · 22:10 PHT
Search, rebuilt
Universal search was rewritten from a flat list into a ranked engine: full-text across every Note, jump-to-section results for 400+ Grimoire chapters, grouped results with snippets and highlighting, typo tolerance, and a closest-match fallback when nothing matches every word. Grimoire sections also gained hover copy-links and an arrival highlight.
v3.6
2026-07-05 · 12:30 PHT
Version history
This changelog — a version chip in the footer that opens the full history of the site, kept as a single editable data file. The thing you are reading now.
v3.5
2026-07-05 · 02:10 PHT
QA hardening
A full audit of the Billing Workspace, then the fixes: a calculator crash-loop that could block saved data from loading, silent period-date corruption, low-contrast small text, negative-rate and empty-export edge cases, keyboard access for the custom-hours stepper. Every repair verified live.
v3.4
2026-07-03 · 21:10 PHT
Invoice: custom hours
A fifth “custom” state joined the calendar’s click cycle, with an inline − h + stepper right in the day cell so anyone whose hours vary can bill exact hours per day. Totals count them precisely in both hourly and daily modes.
v3.3
2026-07-03 · 05:55 PHT
The billing calculator
A calculator arrived beside the personal budget — rebuilt around a strong engine: scientific functions, currency-aware math on your own manual rates, and named variables. Local-first, tested.
v3.2
2026-07-02 · 14:57 PHT
Workbench hardening and QA
A quality pass across the live site: mobile overflow and metadata fixed, a written QA handoff recorded, and favicons declared on the standalone grimoire pages.
v3.1
2026-07-01 · 20:32 PHT
The Workbench, expanded
More operational tools, a whiteboard reworked around editable templates with smoother interactions, and additional hand tools for everyday work.
v3.0

2026-07-01 · 00:33 PHT
The Operator Workbench
A new wing of the site: local-first instruments, starting with billing, that run entirely in your browser with nothing leaving the page. The Library captures knowledge; the Workbench removes the busywork.
v2.1
2026-06-29 · 22:57 PHT
Identity and polish
SEO and discovery metadata repaired, a portrait sign-off blended into a full-width band on About, a live world-clock added to Contact, and the G017 essay tightened.
v2.0

2026-06-29 · 03:42 PHT
The redesign
The entire library was redesigned — a cleaner, more considered look and structure that set the visual language everything since has followed.
v1.5
2026-06-26 · 21:28 PHT
G017, the quiet trades
A new grimoire — an essay on the quiet trades — added and brought fully in line with the library’s chrome and voice.
v1.4
2026-06-23 · 08:28 PHT
The application grimoires
Two flagship pieces built for job interviews arrived as gated previews: G015 “The GHL Admin’s Build” and G016 “Lessons from a Bespoke Project Business.” The two were rebuilt on a shared design system so the pair match, and kept unlisted.
v1.3
2026-06-14 · 10:14 PHT
Depth and polish
The reading-guide “ghost” refined and fixed; editorial passes gave grimoires a consistent voice; thin modules expanded to full depth; nav and layout bugs squashed; a “Start Here” routing block added.
v1.2
2026-06-13 · 21:26 PHT
Remote Work 101
Grimoire 014 added as a 30-chapter field manual — the front gate for newcomers — indexed, cross-linked, illustrated, and capped with a visual “Speedrun.” The favicon became an open book.
v1.1
2026-06-13 · 17:48 PHT
More manuals, and a personality
Grimoires 012 and 013 published, a light reading-guide personality layer added, layouts unified, and SEO plus “Related Grimoires” links rolled out across the shelf.
v1.0
major
2026-06-13 · 05:59 PHT
The Library launches
Everything moved to a dedicated repository and relaunched as “The Library”: grimoires 001–008, the money/work/organizations trilogy (009–011), and eleven field notes, under a uniform look with a full SEO foundation. The old site was retired the same day behind redirects that preserve every URL.
v0.7
2026-06-12 · 22:26 PHT
The shelf nears its final shape
More grimoires given their lasting names — agentic AI, payment processing, orchestration layer, organizational physics — the GHL manual bumped to v4, and metadata cleaned up.
v0.6
2026-05-22 · 00:12 PHT
Shared chrome, cleaner shell
Projects and About rebuilt on shared header/footer includes with a reworked stylesheet; navigation simplified. The site began to feel like one coherent thing.
v0.5
2026-05-06 · 00:05 PHT
The field notes
An articles system: a template plus ~17 short essays from real ops work — the single source of truth, the five-minute rule, institutional memory, builder-to-architect, and more.
v0.4
