name	add-project
description	Add a project to the content collection. Handles one-time collection setup if missing. Use when user wants to add, create, or showcase a new project.

Add Project

First-run setup

Check if projects exists in content.config.ts exports. If missing, add:

const projects = defineCollection({
  loader: glob({ pattern: "**/*.md", base: "./src/content/projects" }),
  schema: z.object({
    title: z.string(),
    subtitle: z.string().optional(),    // mono uppercase subtitle
    description: z.string(),
    badge: z.string().optional(),        // "Commercial", "NDA", "Open Source"
    href: z.string().optional(),         // external project URL
    category: z.enum(["commercial", "open-source"]),
  }),
});

Update export: export const collections = { blog, speaking, projects };

Create src/content/projects/ directory.

Migrate src/pages/projects.astro: rewrite to query getCollection("projects"), group by category, render each group in its own section (COMMERCIAL → OPEN SOURCE) using existing ProjectCard component for each entry. Keep the hero section and section headings intact. Remove hardcoded project data.

Adding a project

Create src/content/projects/<slug>.md:

---
title: "Project Name"
subtitle: "Tagline or role"
description: "What it does and why it matters."
badge: "Open Source"
href: "https://github.com/..."
category: "open-source"
---

Optional body content.

ProjectCard mapping

Props map 1:1 to schema fields: title, subtitle, description, badge, href.
