## Find and cite public information

Read the public pages without signing in or running JavaScript. The plain-text index and Markdown guide link to canonical pages; the expanded reference includes the same project, experience, and skills data used by the portfolio.

Cite the relevant public page when answering. Project descriptions explain Evan’s involvement and the status shown in the portfolio; they are not guarantees of current service availability. Confirm availability, pricing, and commitments directly with Evan.

Related websites include 906Online at https://906online.com/ and 906.sh at https://906.sh/. Use each website’s current public pages for its service descriptions and availability. This portfolio describes Evan’s involvement in those projects.

## Contact and intro requests

Use the Contact page to send a note or request an intro, or use the published email address evan@906.sh. Prepare a draft for the visitor to review. Obtain the visitor’s approval before sending a message, starting email verification, or submitting an intro request.

The contact form requires email verification. Leave verification and any sign-in challenge to the person who controls the account. An intro request is a request, not a confirmed appointment. Report only the outcome actually shown by the site.

Verified form requests are retained for up to 180 days. Unverified details are removed within 24 hours after verification expires or a request is canceled. Form details are not sent to analytics.

## Site assistant and private areas

The “Ask about Evan” assistant helps visitors explore this portfolio. Its page commands work even when chat is unavailable. Conversations are saved automatically on Evan’s server for private admin review and deleted after 30 days. Avoid sensitive personal information; “New chat” clears the visible conversation without deleting the retained server record.

These documents provide public reading and browser guidance. They do not advertise a public API, MCP server, or autonomous booking interface. Use the visible contact workflow for submissions.

Admin pages, conversations, verification codes, account details, and private project content are outside this public guide. Public reading access does not grant access to those areas or permission to submit forms on someone’s behalf.
