1. WordPress Config And Fetch

• 1.1 Add WordPress env/config variables (base URL + credentials) and document them in site/.env.example
• 1.2 Extend site/scripts/fetch-content.ts to fetch WordPress posts, pages, and categories via wp-json and write to site/content/cache/content.json
• 1.3 Add a failure mode where WP fetch errors do not crash the whole fetch/build (keep last-known-good or write empty WP dataset)

2. Normalize And Select

• 2.1 Extend content cache/types to represent WordPress items (post/page) and categories
• 2.2 Add selector helpers for WordPress posts/pages/categories (ordered by publish date, filter by category)

3. Blog UI Surface

• 3.1 Add /blog index page that renders WordPress post cards (featured image, title, excerpt)
• 3.2 Add post detail routes (e.g., /blog/post/<slug>) that render the full post content
• 3.3 Add page detail routes (e.g., /blog/page/<slug>) that render the full page content
• 3.4 Add blog secondary navigation under header based on cached categories, with category listing pages (e.g., /blog/category/<slug>)
• 3.5 Add header nav link "Blog" between "Podcast" and "About"

4. SEO And Sitemap

• 4.1 Ensure blog pages include title/description/canonical URL metadata
• 4.2 Update sitemap generation to include /blog and blog content routes when WP content is present at build time

5. Verification

• 5.1 Add at least one test to assert the header includes the Blog link
• 5.2 Add a build verification that /blog is generated and renders an empty state when no WP content is available
