A deterministic portfolio OS — design, theme, and export complete Astro sites.

A self-contained Astro 6 builder app with a React island editor. Template chooser, section manager, content editor, theme/token editor, motion + highlight controls, Pexels material background pack, live iframe preview, and an export center that ships a complete Astro portfolio project ZIP. No AI runtime dependency. Section schema, theme engine, exporter, and site runtime all live as shared packages alongside the app.

Westfall

A prestige spy thriller in the tradition of Sicario and Zero Dark Thirty.

Silas Westfall spent a decade making people disappear for a man he trusted. A former ISA operator, he knows how the work is supposed to end — clean, deniable, off the books. What he doesn't know is that his handler has been running a private program of his own. Meridian. Buried inside a Northern Virginia defense contractor. Funded by sovereign money laundered through a chain of shells too clean to be coincidence. Ground-truth tradecraft, corporate forensics, and the slow detonation of a man learning that the most dangerous thing in this world is a receipt.
