Turns the placeholder page into a two-page static site ready to deploy on Cloudflare Pages: a homepage that explains what Logan Square Labs is, and a posts index. No build step, no dependencies, no JavaScript — just HTML and one stylesheet.

What changed

The deployable site now lives in public/, which keeps repo files like the README out of the deployment and gives Pages a clean output directory to serve.

public/
  index.html         -> /
  posts/index.html   -> /posts/
  404.html           served automatically for unmatched paths
  style.css          the only stylesheet
  favicon.svg
  _headers           security headers + asset caching
  robots.txt
  sitemap.xml
wrangler.toml        pages_build_output_dir = "public"

wrangler.toml means the output directory is recorded in the repo, so wrangler pages deploy works with no arguments and the dashboard picks up the same value.

Screenshots

Homepage, light and dark (the stylesheet follows prefers-color-scheme), and the posts page with its empty state:

Homepage in light mode

Homepage on mobile

About the copy

The homepage prose is a first draft written around the existing "Exploring the landscape of intelligence." tagline — please edit it to taste. It deliberately avoids claims I could not verify, so there is no location, team, or contact information beyond a link to the GitHub org. Worth considering as follow-ups: an email or social link, and a line about where the name comes from.

The posts page has no posts yet, so it shows "Nothing published yet" rather than filler. The file carries a commented-out example of the list markup, and the README documents the three steps to publish one.

Verified locally

Ran under wrangler pages dev, which emulates Pages including _headers and its URL handling:

  • /, /posts/, /style.css, /favicon.svg, /robots.txt, and /sitemap.xml all return 200 with correct content types; /posts 308-redirects to /posts/; an unknown path returns 404 with the custom page.
  • Wrangler parsed all 3 header rules, and the CSP is satisfied because no page uses inline styles or scripts.
  • All three pages pass html-validate with no errors, and render with no console errors in headless Chrome.

Remaining step (needs Cloudflare account access)

I had no Cloudflare credentials in this environment, so the Pages project itself still has to be created once. In the dashboard: Workers & Pages → Create → Pages → Connect to Git, select this repo, framework preset None, empty build command, build output directory public, production branch main. After that, pushes to main publish to production and pull requests get preview URLs automatically.

Then attach logansquarelabs.com (and www) under the project's Custom domains. One thing to expect: the zone currently has proxied apex A records that do not resolve to a working origin, and Cloudflare will prompt to replace them. Full steps are in the README.

If you would rather I do the provisioning and deploy, add a CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN (with Cloudflare Pages: Edit) and CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID in Cloud Agents → Secrets and I can finish it from here.

To show artifacts inline, enable in settings.

Move the placeholder page into public/ so the deployable site is separated
from repo files, and expand it into a homepage describing the lab plus a
posts index. Adds a shared stylesheet with light/dark support, a favicon,
a 404 page, and robots/sitemap files.

Point the Pages build output directory at public/ via wrangler.toml, so both
the dashboard Git integration and 'wrangler pages deploy' pick it up without
extra flags. Add a _headers file for security headers and asset caching.
