Site Editor

Projects and writing now use one simple local editor.

1. Run node tools/post_studio_server.mjs
2. Open http://127.0.0.1:4173/post-studio.html
3. Choose Projects or Writing
4. Edit plain text and click Save + Rebuild

Formatting in text fields:

• [b]bold[/b]
• [i]italic[/i]
• [code]code[/code]
• [link https://example.com]link text[/link]
• [table] ... [/table] for tables using left | right rows
• blank line = new paragraph
• - item = bullet point

The detail page editor is now one linear Body document field per item, so you can mix normal text and tables in order without separate block editors.
