summary: "Commune is a personal open-source project. I updated its definition, dated the older hardware and question-answering ideas, and kept weekly synthesis focused on writing."

I updated [[Commune]] because the note still described a business and a platform I am no longer building. I built my own site first, then found the structure worth sharing. The project is MIT licensed, with no company, subscription or monetization plans.

I marked [[The Commune box]] and [[Ask the Brain]] as earlier ideas. What shipped is a static site on Cloudflare and a package on npm. A home box isn't required.

[[Auto-essay closes the loop each week]] still fits. I want everyday work to help me revise my notes and see what changed in my thinking. I removed the payment rationale. The work now is keeping this wiki connected and current, and making that practice easier for a friend to inherit.
