Repo: Tony_tech/directory-engine Created: 2026-08-22 Operator: Leonard

Goal

Build a high-quality niche directory business using research + engineer agents. Daily curated Markdown pages → traffic → affiliate/newsletter monetization.

Current State

• Repo and playbook live.
• Niche still open (propose or await decision).
• Templates + agent prompts seeded.
• No live site or pages yet.

Next Actions

1. Lock niche (record in directory-engine/decisions.md).
2. Run first research cycle → publish 1–3 pages.
3. Stand up minimal Astro (or static) site.
4. Schedule daily loop via Hermes.
