Code

The code, and where the rest lives.

Every shipping claim on this site sits next to the thing shipped. This page is the index: what is public, what is private by employer, and the engine that answers questions on the homepage.

Public

This site, including Brix

Plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with no build step. The retrieval engine, the knowledge base, the accessibility architecture, and the QA tooling are all in one public repository.

The engine

retrieve(), verbatim

This is the function that answers questions on the homepage, copied from index.html. It is a keyword engine, not a model: normalize, drop stopwords, expand synonyms, fuzzy-match against a hand-written knowledge base, and score. If this and the homepage ever differ, the homepage is the truth.

// index.html — the engine answering you right now (verbatim)
function retrieve(query) {
  const nq = norm(query);
  const qt = toks(query);
  let best = null, bestScore = 0, second = null, secondScore = 0;
  const scored = [];
  for (const e of KB) {
    // `not` keys veto an entry outright — this is what stops "case study"
    // scoring against the education entry via the word "study".
    if (e.not && e.not.some(n => nq.includes(n))) continue;
    let sc = 0;
    for (const key of e.keys) {
      const kl = key.toLowerCase().trim();
      // A multi-word key is a much stronger signal than a single word,
      // so it outranks a generic one-word match on another entry.
      if (kl.length >= 3 && nq.includes(kl)) { sc += 3 + (kl.split(' ').length - 1) * 2; continue; }
      for (const w of kl.split(' ')) {
        if (!w || STOP.has(w)) continue;
        if (qt.some(t => fuzzy(t, w))) { sc += 1; break; }
      }
    }
    if (sc > 0) scored.push({ e, sc });
    if (sc > bestScore) { second = best; secondScore = bestScore; best = e; bestScore = sc; }
    else if (sc > secondScore) { second = e; secondScore = sc; }
  }
  scored.sort((a, b) => b.sc - a.sc);
  return { entry: best, score: bestScore, second: secondScore >= 2 ? second : null, scored };
}
