+# Improvement Ideas for technick.ai
+
+Based on analysis of the job search strategy, cover letters, and project inventory, here are opportunities to strengthen the career page and overall site for AI company job applications.
+
+## Priority 1: High Impact, Quick Wins
+
+### 1. Add Project Images (Missing from strategy)
+The strategy doc notes these are still TODO:
+- `images/ai-coding-config.png` - screenshot showing agent/command ecosystem
+- `images/machina.png` - logo or architecture diagram
+
+These would make the projects section more visually compelling.
+
+### 2. Make MCP Expertise More Prominent
+MCP protocol implementation is your #1 differentiator for Anthropic. Consider:
+- Add "2x MCP Implementations" as a headline stat (alongside 17,715 commits, 130 repos)
+- Create a dedicated section: "Model Context Protocol Expertise"
+- Link directly to MCP Hubby and machina repos
+
+### 3. Add Key Metrics to Project Cards
+From the project inventory, these metrics resonate:
+- MCP Hubby: "95% context reduction", "713 commits", "87 test files", "25 service adapters"
+- ai-coding-config: "24 agents", "18 commands", "33 rules", "304 commits"
+- Carmenta: "7 frontier models", "11 service integrations"
+
+### 4. Fix the AI Era Annotation Target
+The annotation searches for `Jun '23` but should target `2023-06` in the monthly data format. Verify it's appearing correctly on the chart.
+
+## Priority 2: Content Additions
+
+### 5. Add "Why I'd Excel At..." Section
+Tailored messaging for each target company (could be collapsible tabs):
+- **Anthropic**: MCP implementations, Claude Code infrastructure, Constitutional AI alignment
+- **Vercel**: DevEx obsession, built on Vercel stack, ai-coding-config
+- **OpenAI**: Shipping velocity, multi-model expertise (not Claude-locked), pragmatic execution
+- **Meta**: Open source ethos, production systems at scale
+- **xAI**: Speed of execution, entrepreneurial track record
+
+### 6. Add a Skills/Expertise Matrix
+Visual representation of technical depth:
+- AI/ML Infrastructure: ████████████ Expert (MCP Hubby, Carmenta, machina)
+- Developer Experience: ████████████ Expert (ai-coding-config, Claude Code)
+- Production Systems: ████████████ Expert (CryptoAI, Krux, ChangeTip)
+- Multi-Model Orchestration: ███████████ Expert (Carmenta routes 7 models)
+
+### 7. Add Testimonials/Endorsements
+If available, quotes from:
+- Colleagues from Krux/ChangeTip/Airbnb era
+- Users of MCP Hubby or ai-coding-config
+- Industry connections who can speak to technical ability
+
+### 8. Create Project Case Studies
+Deeper dives with:
+- Problem statement
+- Approach/Architecture
+- Outcomes/Impact
+- Technical challenges solved
+
+## Priority 3: SEO & Discoverability
+
+### 9. Structured Data Enhancements
+Add JSON-LD for:
+- `SoftwareSourceCode` for each project
+- `Person` with `knowsAbout` listing technologies
+- `WorkExperience` for career history
+
+### 10. Meta Tags for Key Search Terms
+Ensure pages rank for:
+- "MCP protocol implementation"
+- "Claude Code plugins"
+- "AI developer experience"
+- "Nick Sullivan Anthropic"
+
+### 11. Add llms.txt
+Create `/llms.txt` so AI assistants better understand the site content when users research Nick.
+
+## Priority 4: Visual & UX Improvements
+
+### 12. Project Architecture Diagrams
+Simple visual showing how key projects work:
+- MCP Hubby progressive disclosure flow
+- Carmenta multi-model routing
+- machina Mac integration points
+
+### 13. Interactive Demos
+If feasible:
+- Live ai-coding-config agent explorer
+- MCP Hubby API playground
+
+### 14. Enhanced Timeline Visuals
+The career timeline could show:
+- Wave timing (when each tech wave started vs when Nick joined)
+- Outcome annotations (exits, acquisitions)
+
+### 15. Mobile UX Polish
+Verify touch targets, scrolling, and content priorities on mobile.
+
+## Priority 5: Company-Specific Landing Pages
+
+### 16. Create /career/anthropic
+Dedicated page emphasizing:
+- MCP implementations (MCP Hubby + machina)
+- Claude Code ecosystem (ai-coding-config, claude_telemetry)
+- Constitutional AI / HeartCentered.AI alignment
+- Specific proof points for target roles
+
+### 17. Create /career/vercel
+Dedicated page emphasizing:
+- Carmenta (built on their full stack)
+- Developer experience obsession
+- ai-coding-config workflow automation
+
+This could be overkill, but having company-specific URLs to share with recruiters could be powerful.
+
+## Data & Stats Improvements
+
+### 18. Continue Monthly Stats Collection
+Currently at 55 months with a gap from 2015-2024. The rate-limited API prevents full collection. Options:
+- Run script at different times to avoid rate limits
+- Use authenticated GitHub API for higher limits
+- Show the data we have with a note about the gap
+
+### 19. Add More Data Visualizations
+Beyond commits:
+- Lines of code by language
+- Test coverage trends
+- Repository activity heatmap
+
+## Content From Strategy Doc (Still TODO)
+
+From `job-application-strategy.md`:
+- [ ] GitHub Profile: Pin ai-coding-config, carmenta (if public), machina, heart-centered-prompts
+- [ ] LinkedIn: Update headline, add Featured section with Substack essays
+- [ ] HeartCentered.AI: Add explicit Constitutional AI connection, "For Researchers" page
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Next Steps
+
+1. **Immediate**: Add the key metrics to project cards on career page
+2. **This week**: Create project images and add MCP section
+3. **Before applications**: Create the /career/anthropic page as a secret weapon
+4. **Ongoing**: Continue stats collection during off-peak hours
+
+These improvements collectively strengthen the narrative: "Not just someone who uses AI tools—someone who builds infrastructure for them."
