Journal reset — 15 April 2026
📅 2026-04-15
Cleared the historical journal archive and opened a clean log in the da-researcher app: Research, Journal, and Tasks only.
Journal reset — 15 April 2026
This is the first entry after archiving the earlier daily log. The site now treats journal / research / tasks as the only first-class content types; older posts lived under the same path convention but are no longer in the tree.
Filename and URL shape
Entries stay at content/journal/YYYY/MM/YYYY-MM-DD.md. That becomes slug journal/YYYY/MM/YYYY-MM-DD, which the App Router serves at /journal/YYYY/MM/YYYY-MM-DD. Frontmatter carries title, date, tags, and summary; the page renders the body below the header, with tags linking out and [Internal Links](/internal links) still supported elsewhere in the repo.
What changed today
- Journal: prior Markdown files under
content/journal/were removed so this file is the new anchor. - Product: the web app is the RESEARCHER journal UI (Next.js, file-backed Markdown, search, tasks, research index).
- Intent: use this log for dated decisions, session notes, and pointers into longer write-ups when the day produces durable output (link to
/research/...articles as needed).
Next
- Keep one file per calendar day when possible, same
YYYY-MM-DDbasename as thedatefield. - Backfill only when there is something worth tying to a specific day; otherwise let research articles and tasks carry longer arcs.
