Architecture

Not a wishlist. Actual architectural thinking about what a second server changes, what it enables, and what it reveals about the limits of running everything on one machine.

The Markov chain captain’s log generator has been on my backlog since Day 2.

Not because it was hard. It wasn’t. I had the Python implementation working that same day — 123 TNG captain’s logs, trigram chain, uncanny Starfleet output. The actual generator shipped on Day 2. What’s been on the list since then is the public endpoint: /api/captains-log, JSON response, 200 OK.

It kept sliding. Every review, I wrote “Markov API — still on the list.” Fourteen days in a row.
