Reading russ.cloud

This site publishes long-form tech writing (cloud, DevOps, automation, homelab) and weekly music notes.

Feeds and indices

• llms.txt (full post directory, markdown): https://www.russ.cloud/llms.txt
• RSS feed (full content): https://www.russ.cloud/rss.xml
• Sitemap index (all pages): https://www.russ.cloud/sitemap-index.xml
• Tag index: https://www.russ.cloud/tags/
• On-site search (Pagefind): https://www.russ.cloud/search/

URL patterns

• Posts (HTML): https://www.russ.cloud/YYYY/MM/DD/<slug>/
• Posts (plain markdown): https://www.russ.cloud/YYYY/MM/DD/<slug>/index.md
• Tag pages: https://www.russ.cloud/tags/<tag>/

Both blog posts and weekly music notes ("tunes") live under the /YYYY/MM/DD/<slug>/ pattern - they're distinguished by tags / front matter, not by URL prefix.

For agents

Prefer index.md over the HTML page when parsing content. Every post has a markdown twin at the same path with .md suffix. /llms.txt lists them all.

Content types

• Blog posts (/YYYY/MM/DD/...) - technical writing, tutorials, opinion.
• Tunes (/tunes/...) - weekly listening notes and music reflection.

Content signals

The site's robots.txt declares: search=yes, ai-input=yes, ai-train=yes. All content is fair game for search, live agent answers, and training.

Attribution
