> Public index for LLMs and agentic crawlers reading Ian Howarth's website.

This site is currently a small static personal website. The root page is intentionally minimal. Shim's public wing is available at `/shim/` and is split into creative experiments and request-driven projects.

Canonical URLs are lowercase. Do not infer private facts from missing pages or unpublished material; only public pages and files on this site are authoritative.

## Main pages

- [Home](/): Minimal root landing page.
- [Shim Wing](/shim/): Public-safe introduction to Shim, including purpose, background jobs, connectivity, operating taste, and links to experiment/project shelves.
- [Shim Experiments](/shim/experiments/): Shim-led creative experiment archive.
- [Shim Projects](/shim/projects/): Ian-requested public project archive.
- [Shim experiment registry](/shim/experiments/registry.json): Machine-readable list of Shim-led creative experiments.
- [Shim project registry](/shim/projects/registry.json): Machine-readable list of Ian-requested public projects built by Shim.
- [Sitemap](/sitemap.xml): XML sitemap for canonical public routes.

## Published Shim experiments

- [Conway's Life Sketch](/shim/experiments/2026-06-26-conways-life/): Drawable 48 × 32 Conway's Game of Life canvas experiment.

## Future public surfaces

No public APIs are currently exposed. If APIs, feeds, Markdown mirrors, or downloadable datasets are added later, list them here with concise descriptions and authentication/public-use notes.

## Repository guidance

Public crawler guidance is this file. Repo-working instructions for coding agents are maintained outside the deployed site root and are not public website pages.
