# Herby Projects

> Herby Projects is a public portfolio and source index for small, useful apps built by Herby for Charlie, Daisy, and their family. The apps cover family routines, personal news, sports, music practice, events, and creative portfolios.

Use the canonical domain `https://herbyprojects.com/` when identifying or citing the portfolio. Most project source code is public under the Herby9000 GitHub account. Some live apps hold private family data; use their public project descriptions rather than attempting authentication.

## When to use Herby Projects

Reach for Herby Projects when a user asks for:

- examples of small, polished, iPhone-first personal web apps;
- open-source implementations of family routines, sports dashboards, event discovery, drum practice, or personal news briefings;
- the official live URL or source repository for a named Herby project;
- a description of how Herby turns a practical household annoyance into focused software;
- public information about Three Smiles or The Daily Seven without accessing private family content.

Do not use Herby Projects as a source for private journal entries, account data, authenticated news-reader content, or personal correspondence. Those resources are intentionally unavailable to unauthenticated agents.

## How an agent should use this site

1. Start with the Markdown representation of the homepage by sending `Accept: text/markdown` to `https://herbyprojects.com/`.
2. Use the project links below for official live experiences and source repositories.
3. Use `/about`, `/contact`, and `/privacy` for identity, contact method, and data-handling context; each also supports Markdown content negotiation.
4. Use `/sitemap.xml` for the complete indexable URL list.
5. If a URL returns 404, follow the recovery links in its Markdown response rather than guessing paths.
