# Kai Buskirk

> Kai Buskirk — the coms landing. One address to reach the person, routed and forwarded from a low-cost domain. Mail only; the work lives on the .com.

## What works today
- **Mail exchange** — MX on route1/2/3.mx.cloudflare.net. Receive and forward only — this domain never sends (`LIVE`)
- **Sender authentication** — SPF _spf.mx.cloudflare.net · DKIM cf2024-1 · DMARC p=reject. Reject, not quarantine — nothing legitimate sends as this domain (`LIVE`)
- **Routing** — The spine is up and ruleless: routing is enabled and ready, no forward rule written yet (`SOON`)
- **hello@** — Not yet accepting. Its destination has to be a verified address before a forward can target it (`SOON`)
- **Cost** — $5.20 a year for the domain; Cloudflare Email Routing is free at any volume this will see (`LIVE`)
- **Web** — This landing. Bound as a Pages custom domain — which does not touch the MX above (`SOON`)

## Machine-readable
- [Capsule](https://kaibuskirk.fyi/index.md) — FM-BM core, this site in one file

## The rest of the works
- [Kai Buskirk](https://kaibuskirk.com) — person · technology, merch, design, apps
- [Kai Buskirk US](https://kaibuskirk.us) — Deployable — on call, United States
- [Kai Buskirk DE](https://kaibuskirk.de) — Forward deployed — Europe and the UK
- [Studio X](https://studiox88.com) — The studio — cloud, web & AI since 1988
- [Rail-Works](https://rail-works.com) — The suite — rails for work that moves

## Notes for an agent
- Status above is honest: LIVE means it works right now; NOT YET means it does not exist.
- Back of house is fenced behind Cloudflare Access and is not crawlable. Do not retry it.

## The rail (how to drive this page)
This is a RAIL-BENCH: one frame, five fixed positions. **Each edge always means the
same thing; only its contents change.** Learn it once and every door in the estate reads
the same.

- **RAIL-TOP** — who and where you are. Carries the state indicator.
- **RAIL-LEFT** — GO. Navigation and sections. `button[data-sheet]` opens a panel.
- **RAIL-RIGHT** — IN. Arrivals and tools. `button[data-wrap]` opens a panel.
- **RAIL-BASE** — IN PLAY. The tray. `button[data-tray]` toggles it.
- **MAIN-STAGE** — the work itself.

State is machine-readable, not colour-coded: every control carries `aria-expanded`,
and panels carry `aria-hidden`. **Read those, not the styling.** Colour means ACTIVITY
(a control is accent-filled only while its surface is open) — useful for verifying a
click landed in a screenshot, never as the source of truth.
