Enforce HTTPS, add a sensible Content-Security-Policy plus the standard security headers, eliminate open redirects and reflected user input, validate and rate-limit any form, and ensure every agent/API endpoint and machine file (AGENTS.md, llms.txt, *.json) returns ONLY public data — never internal or personal information.

Every instruction below is for austinspring.com and no other site — make all changes on austinspring.com. Act like a senior editor and web engineer who knows the Retro Computing & BBS niche cold.

GOAL (on austinspring.com)
Make the site mythos-attack-proof — harden against automated & AI-agent abuse — on the site austinspring.com.

WHY IT MATTERS
Assume a determined automated, AI-driven attacker. Enforce HTTPS, add a sensible Content-Security-Policy plus the standard security headers, eliminate open redirects and reflected user input, validate and rate-limit any form, and ensure every agent/API endpoint and machine file (AGENTS.md, llms.txt, *.json) returns ONLY public data — never internal or personal information.

HOW TO APPROACH IT
1. Confirm nothing sensitive is publicly reachable: as a logged-out visitor, /.git/, /.env, backups (.bak/.zip/.sql/.tgz), config files, .htpasswd, and any private or admin path must return 403 or 404 — never 200.
2. Scan the served HTML, JS, and JSON for leaked secrets, API keys, tokens, internal emails, or personal data, and remove anything that should not be public.
3. Enforce HTTPS and confirm the standard security headers are present (HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, and a sensible Content-Security-Policy).
4. Harden anything interactive against a determined automated or AI-driven attacker: validate and rate-limit forms, eliminate open redirects and reflected input, and make sure every agent/API endpoint and machine file (AGENTS.md, llms.txt, *.json) returns ONLY public data.

CONSTRAINTS
- Match the site's existing design, fonts, layout and voice — never a generic AI-template look.
- Keep the HTML valid; do not break nav, internal links, the promo bar, analytics, or ad units.
- Use only real, current, accurately-attributed information — no fabricated facts, numbers, or sources.
- Reuse the site's existing Google Analytics and AdSense.

WHAT "DONE" LOOKS LIKE
- A logged-out request to every sensitive path returns 403/404 — verified, not assumed.
- No secret, key, token, internal email, or personal datum appears anywhere in the served HTML, JS, or JSON.
- HTTPS is forced and security headers are confirmed live; the Agents-First surface exposes only public information — the site is mythos-attack-proof.
- Deployed to the droplet and verified on the live URL (screenshot from a Windows machine — never run a browser on the droplet), with a short summary of exactly what changed.

Think through the best approach first, then complete the whole task autonomously before stopping.

GOAL (on austinspring.com)
Add source: Hackaday — on the site austinspring.com.

WHY IT MATTERS
Hardware-hacking culture Authoritative Retro Computing & BBS reference not yet linked on /sources/ — add it with a one-line note.

HOW TO APPROACH IT
1. Open the source and confirm it is authoritative and genuinely relevant to Retro Computing & BBS.
2. Add it to /sources/ with a one-line annotation explaining why it matters, placed in the right group, with no duplicates.

CONSTRAINTS
- Match the site's existing design, fonts, layout and voice — never a generic AI-template look.
- Keep the HTML valid; do not break nav, internal links, the promo bar, analytics, or ad units.
- Use only real, current, accurately-attributed information — no fabricated facts, numbers, or sources.
- Reuse the site's existing Google Analytics and AdSense.

WHAT "DONE" LOOKS LIKE
- The link works, is annotated and well-placed, and is a reference a real Retro Computing & BBS expert would trust.
- Deployed to the droplet and verified on the live URL (screenshot from a Windows machine — never run a browser on the droplet), with a short summary of exactly what changed.

Think through the best approach first, then complete the whole task autonomously before stopping.

GOAL (on austinspring.com)
Apply a WT-Skins kit to lift the design and Agents-First score — on the site austinspring.com.

WHY IT MATTERS
The page looks generic without a kit. Roll the cluster's kit (snapshot the old design first) to get the AF score into the 90s.

HOW TO APPROACH IT

3. Verify on the live render, not on a file:// preview.

CONSTRAINTS
- Match the site's existing design, fonts, layout and voice — never a generic AI-template look.
- Keep the HTML valid; do not break nav, internal links, the promo bar, analytics, or ad units.
- Use only real, current, accurately-attributed information — no fabricated facts, numbers, or sources.
- Reuse the site's existing Google Analytics and AdSense.

WHAT "DONE" LOOKS LIKE
- The Agents-First score is 90+ and the page looks designed rather than defaulted, with a rollback point saved.
- Deployed to the droplet and verified on the live URL (screenshot from a Windows machine — never run a browser on the droplet), with a short summary of exactly what changed.
