feat(blog): inline screenshots for the M11 (collaboration loop) post
Two screenshots for the "Half Your Teammates Aren't Human" blog draft
(post #17130):

- m11-loop.png:          a designed diagram of the seven-station loop as a
                         horizontal row of connected cards (issue -> branch ->
                         implementation -> PR -> review -> merge -> closed).
                         Each card carries a small "who typically does it"
                         tag (human / agent / either / auto) to make the
                         handoffs visible. Same dark-slate aesthetic as the
                         rest of the series.

- m11-worktree-prs.png:  two side-by-side terminals showing two real agents
                         at once: left is tasks-app-count on feature/count
                         with real PR #1 OPEN on recklessop/m11-worktrees-demo;
                         right is tasks-app-clear on feature/clear with real
                         PR #2 OPEN on the same repo. Real branches, real
                         remote pushes, real gh pr view output. The scratch
                         repo (recklessop/m11-worktrees-demo) is safe to
                         delete after publish.

Blog posts (jpaul.me)

Drafts of blog posts for jpaul.me that promote and add value around The Workflow course. This folder is not course content; it lives here only so the drafts are version-controlled alongside the material they describe. Pull it out before any public GitHub mirror push if you don't want the drafts shipped publicly.

Conventions

  • One Markdown file per post, numbered in intended publish order: NN-slug.md.
  • Each file opens with a metadata block (suggested title, slug, meta description, tags) for easy paste into WordPress; delete it before publishing or keep it as notes.
  • Screenshots are left as [insert a screenshot referencing XYZ here] placeholders for Justin to fill before publishing.
  • Voice: conversational, first-person, value-first. Course link is a soft CTA, not the whole point; each post should stand on its own for a reader who never takes the course.

Publishing cadence & manifest

Structure: announcement + getting-started, then a weekly series. Hybrid granularity: one post per module for the durable core (Units 12), one post per unit for the faster-moving back half (Units 35), plus a capstone finale. 17 posts total.

Each file's top-of-file HTML comment holds the suggested title, slug, meta description, and tags for WordPress. Titles above are starting points; every post also carries an alt title in its metadata block.

Before publishing: checklist

  • [COURSE LINK] placeholders filled with the course URL https://git.jpaul.io/justin/ai-workflow-course. At public launch: (a) if the GitHub mirror becomes the public home, swap these to the mirror URL; (b) inline cross-post references ("announcement post", "last post", "course lab") currently all point at the course home; repoint them to the specific jpaul.me post URLs (or wiki module pages) once those exist.
  • Fill every [insert a screenshot referencing XYZ here] placeholder with a real image.
  • Decide whether to keep or strip the top-of-file metadata comment block.
