A personal cartography of work — second pass
Sorted.
Forty-four scattered items condensed into ten umbrella folders. One project retired. One new meta-layer added (this very atlas). Six cleanup flags struck through. Same nine families, sharper edges.
The Territories
Ten umbrellas. Nine carry shipping work; the tenth (§ V — Atlas) is the meta layer you're reading now. Krehsten Command was retired on 05.22 — preserved in the archive, replaced by this static page.
The Stack
Every service that powers something on this Desktop. Twenty-two providers in play; some shared across many projects, others used exactly once. Hover any provider to spotlight what depends on it. Two services (MongoDB local, Claude CLI) now have no active consumer — they powered the retired Krehsten Command.
- Frontend
- The part you see and click. HTML, React, Next.js, Swift.
- Backend
- The brain. Functions or servers that hold the logic.
- Database
- Where data is remembered between visits.
- Hosting
- The place on the internet where the thing actually lives.
- Auth
- Who-are-you. Sign-in, sessions, identity.
- AI
- The model — Anthropic Claude, used in three different ways.
- Domain
- The web address — what users type to find you.
- API
- Outside services Kirtesh's apps talk to — Twilio, Meta, etc.
The Cleanup Map
First pass closed six of eight original flags. Five new items remain — mostly minor, all reversible. The Desktop is no longer a warehouse.
