All resume content lives in lib/data.ts. The resume itself is fully static (no CMS), with one piece of dynamic, database-backed content: the Song of the Day.

Song of the Day

/song shows a track I picked for the day, stored in Supabase and posted via an authenticated POST /api/song. Only I can post, authenticated by a bearer token (SONG_API_SECRET). There are two ways to post:

Path	Use it for	Setup
iOS Shortcut	One-tap posting from the Apple Music share sheet	docs/ios-shortcut-setup.md
scripts/post-song.sh	Desktop posting and debugging a failed post	See below

Desktop posting

scripts/post-song.sh reads SONG_API_SECRET from 1Password at call time (never stored on disk) and POSTs an Apple Music link to the API:

# Set today's song
./scripts/post-song.sh "https://music.apple.com/us/album/song/123?i=456"

# Backfill a past date
./scripts/post-song.sh "https://music.apple.com/us/album/song/123?i=456" 2026-06-15

Requires the 1Password CLI (op, signed in), curl, and jq. Override the 1Password reference or endpoint via the SONG_OP_REF / SONG_ENDPOINT env vars. Unlike the Shortcut, it prints the server's exact error and HTTP status — handy when a share silently fails.
