Architecture

System Diagram

User → Cloudflare Tunnel → approuter :8080 → cochranblock :8081
                                           → oakilydokily :3000
cochranblock :8081 → redb (embedded ACID database)
                   → Embedded Assets (HTML/CSS/PDF baked into binary)

Binary Composition

The release binary embeds everything at compile time via include_packed:

All HTML assets (assets/, content/)
CSS and static files
PDFs (capability statement, resume)
redb database file path (database itself is runtime-created)

No files are read from disk at runtime except the redb database. The binary is fully self-contained.

Subdomain Dispatch

Incoming requests are dispatched by Host header in f2_root:

Subdomain	Handler
`cochranblock.org` (apex)	LET’S TEAM page (`assets/lets-team.html`)
`manual.cochranblock.org`	Folded manifesto + ops manual
`knox.cochranblock.org`	KNOXAI operator portal
`simplify.cochranblock.org`	Simplify page
`whyme.cochranblock.org`	Hire-me page
everything else	Standard C7+C8 template routing

Template System

Pages use two compile-time constants:

C7 — skip-link + .cb-nav navigation block + <main> opener
C8 — </main> + footer + closing tags

Handler pattern:

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
pub async fn f67(State(_p0): State<Arc<t0>>) -> Html<String> {
    let v0 = r#"<section>...</section>"#;
    Html([C7, v0, C8].concat())
}
}

Standalone artifact pages (manifesto, constitution, etc.) use f105() to inject the nav shim after <body>.

Storage

redb: single-file ACID embedded database. Used for intake form submissions, analytics, and session data.
No external database. No cloud storage. The database file lives on the VPS at a configured path.

Infrastructure Cost

Line item	Cost
VPS (gd)	~$10/month
Cloudflare Tunnel	Free
Domain	~$12/year
Total	~$10/month
