Post-launch polish — five hollow / mislabeled toggles fixed, repo cleaned, README rewritten to match shipped reality.

Security toggles — code now matches every label

  • Kill XML-RPC — /xmlrpc.php now hard-returns 403 (previously responded 200 with a method-list message; only method dispatch was blocked).
  • Hide usernames — ?author=N now returns 404 (was a 301 redirect to home). /wp/v2/users is removed from the REST surface unconditionally — no longer dependent on the REST-lock toggle.
  • Hide WP from Google — robots.txt now emits User-agent: *\nDisallow: / when the toggle is on. Previously only the meta robots noindex was emitted; the robots.txt body was unchanged.

Performance toggles — wiring fixes

  • Real-user telemetry — fixed an option-key mismatch (UI was writing to hatch_telemetry, the frontend was reading hatch_perf['telemetry']). The beacon now actually fires when the toggle is on.
  • CDN asset prefix — removed (was saved but never consumed). Will return in v0.2 wired into astro.config.mjs build.assetsPrefix at build time.

Editor

  • Gutenberg URL preview — the editor tooltip now mirrors the actual saved slug. Previously the preview reflected the title-derived generated_slug even when the user had manually edited the slug to something else.

Layout

  • Page + post container alignment — pages now share the same --hatch-max-width container as posts and the homepage. Header, footer, and article all align vertically on every route.

Repo + documentation

  • README rewritten with explanatory voice and v0.1.1 reality (no "8 Gutenberg blocks" claim — Hatch uses core Gutenberg).
  • Removed all internal handoff / audit / architecture markdown files from the repo root.
  • Removed legacy docs/ folder (replaced by inline FAQ + README sections).
  • blocks-src/ excluded from the release zip (~40 KB smaller).
  • .DS_Store added to .gitignore.

Verified

  • Zero static-scan issues across the codebase (10 checks).
  • Zero runtime QA issues across 30 cells (5 themes × 5 page types) after the toggle fixes.
  • Per-toggle end-to-end audit: 0 hollow, 0 broken across all 6 admin tabs.
