Private Command Center — live on Cloudflare Pages + Workers
Full System Wiki moved to wiki.johnbcowan.com (Zero Trust protected, SharePoint-style reading experience).
Manuscript Research Studio
Semantic search + voice-faithful expansions directly from the master manuscript
Your semantic research companion inside the manuscript. Query the full indexed book (plus published essays) for the exact passages that illuminate the current topic. Review, copy, insert into notes, or request short voice-faithful expansions that weave context directly into your draft — all while staying true to the author’s thoughtful tone and register.
Production Tools — Local + Cloudflare Workflows
Accelerators that keep the manuscript-to-essay pipeline moving. One workflow harvests fresh material from the source book; the other dispatches voice-faithful AI polishing jobs for anything currently marked In Progress.
Live Mission Protocols — Rule E & Rule D in Effect
