(Migrated from github.com)

Adds a daily GitHub Actions workflow that publishes one article per run
to dev.to and/or Hashnode, with graceful per-platform failure handling.

New publishOn frontmatter field controls when each article becomes
eligible for external publishing (falls back to pubDate if unset)
Back catalogue articles staggered weekly 2026-03-10 through 2026-06-08
Tracking stored in .github/published.json and auto-committed by CI
Platforms are skipped if their secrets aren't configured, and retried
on the next run if they fail
PUBLISHING.md documents full setup for dev.to, Hashnode, and Daily.dev

Note

Medium Risk
Introduces CI automation that writes to the repo and posts content to third-party APIs using secrets; failures or misconfiguration could cause unintended publishes or tracking drift.

Overview
Adds automated external publishing for blog posts via a daily GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/publish.yml) that runs pnpm publish:articles and auto-commits updates to a new .github/published.json tracking file.

Introduces a TypeScript publishing script (scripts/publish/*) that selects the oldest post whose publishOn date has arrived and hasn’t been published to all configured platforms, strips MDX-only constructs, publishes to dev.to and/or Hashnode (based on secrets), and records returned IDs/URLs for retry-safe, per-platform progress.

Updates the posts content schema to accept optional publishOn and seeds multiple posts with scheduled publishOn dates; adds PUBLISHING.md documentation and the needed dev deps (tsx, gray-matter).
