# Architecture blog series 2026 — reproducible artifacts

Companion files for the FactualMinds **Merged architecture blog series** (`src/data/post/aws-*-field-notes.md`). Each folder holds copy-pasteable checks, queries, or policy snippets you can run in your own AWS account.

**Public URLs:** `https://www.factualminds.com/examples/architecture-blog-2026/{folder}/{file}` (copied from repo `examples/` at build time).
