Subject: [PATCH] nook: fix the landing title, isolate /blog, grow the sitemap
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The landing page spent its strongest on-page signal on the word "Home";
the title now carries the positioning line and the OG title carries the
full brand phrase. /blog on a product subdomain served the personal blog
in dev (vinxi ignores the vercel.json rewrites that protect production),
splitting the brand and crawl equity — subdomain hits now render the
shared 404. /agents, /changelog and /faq join the sitemap registry so
they are indexed as they land.

Tests: bun test (539 pass); vinxi build clean, no new tsc errors.

Issues: FRE-8, FRE-15, FRE-9
