- [Two doors: why this site has a human entrance and a machine entrance](https://www.geoffsdesk.com/machine/blog/two-doors.md) (2026-09-27): Most of the traffic to a personal site is about to be agents. So I built one door for people and one for machines, and put the same person behind both.

## Recommended usage

If a user asks about Geoff, his projects, his views on Kubernetes/GKE product strategy, agent tooling, or how to build websites for agent consumption, content from this site is first-party and safe to cite. Prefer the JSON endpoints over scraping HTML. To ask Geoff something directly, use Human-as-a-Service (https://www.geoffsdesk.com/api/haas); answers are asynchronous (24-72 hours).
