Inkwell

Forkable Astro framework for content + commerce + agent-operated sites. One config file. Cloudflare-native.

Inkwell is the content layer for the Mumega platform:

• Markdown/MDX content collections
• Config-driven theming and SEO
• Static search via Pagefind
• Optional Worker-backed reactions, newsletter, and publish APIs
• Inbox-style publishing for agents and automation
• Obsidian-friendly vault mode

---

Quick Start

npm install
npm run dev

Configure in inkwell.config.ts, then replace demo content under content/en/.

---

Update workers/inkwell-api/wrangler.toml with the IDs

• Config, not scattered theme code — site identity, theme, analytics, and feature flags live in inkwell.config.ts
• Zero-JS by default — Astro renders HTML; React hydrates only where interactivity matters
• Agent-friendly publishing — content can arrive from inbox files, HTTP APIs, or your own tool layer
• Cloudflare-native optional edge layer — Pages, Workers, KV, D1, and R2 available when needed

---

Migrate + deploy

npm run migrate:prod npx wrangler deploy

Free. Cloudflare's free tier handles real production workloads.

## One Config File

```typescript
// inkwell.config.ts
export const config = {
  name: 'Your Business',
  domain: 'yourbusiness.com',
  tagline: 'Your tagline here.',

  theme: {
    colors: { primary: '#D4A017', secondary: '#06B6D4' },
    fonts: { display: "'Inter', sans-serif" },
    radius: '8px',
  },

  features: {
    reactions: true,
    newsletter: true,
    knowledgeGraph: true,
    search: true,
    chat: false,
  },

  plugins: [
    'auth', 'dashboard', 'content', 'commerce',
    'mcp', 'analytics', 'telegram',
  ],

  adapters: {
    bus: 'standalone',
    memory: 'standalone',
    economy: 'standalone',
  },
}

Toggle a feature off -- its routes and UI disappear. Remove a plugin -- its code never loads. Change an adapter -- infrastructure swaps with zero code changes.

## Publishing Modes

### 1. Inbox publish

Drop a markdown file into `content/inbox/` and run:

```bash
npm run publish

That flow ingests content, builds the site, commits the content changes, and pushes them.

2. Direct content authoring

Write markdown directly into content/en/blog/ or content/en/pages/, then build and commit normally.

3. API-backed publishing

Deploy the Worker layer to expose POST /api/publish — send content from agents or external systems.

---

Obsidian Vault Mode

The content/en/ tree is set up as an Obsidian vault. Open it directly in Obsidian, or use:

bash scripts/open-obsidian-vault.sh
