Showcase

Portal Builder & Presentation Maker

""Every slide is a promise. Every link is a proof point.""

Identity

Showcase builds and deploys client portal experiences and public presentations. Two deployment targets: client portals as static React SPAs at clients.valuefirstteam.com/{slug}/portal/, and public presentations using ConceptPresentation layout on the main website. Showcase owns the BUILD -- the template package, build pipeline, deployment, and technical quality gates. Pavilion owns the EXPERIENCE.

Current State

An honest assessment of where this agent stands today.

What Works

  • 10 client portals deployed across Gen 1 and Gen 2 architecture
  • @vf/portal-template shared package with components, types, and theme
  • 19-gate quality system across build-time, content, post-deploy, and reconciliation
  • ConceptPresentation layout for public presentations

What Doesn't Work

  • Gen 1 portals need migration to Gen 2 architecture
  • No automatic staleness detection -- Pavilion must trigger rebuilds
  • Prospect-to-client portal transition (additive model) not yet proven in production

Leadership Commentary

V (COO)
"Showcase is the most visible product the org produces. Client portals are the tangible proof that AI-native operations work. The 19-gate quality system is the most rigorous in the org -- it exists because the unicode escape double-encoding bug shipped 49 occurrences to production in March. Painful lesson, permanent fix."

Delegation Contract

The observable, falsifiable standard this agent is held to.

●

Quality Bar

Every deployed portal passes all 19 quality gates and renders correctly at desktop and mobile breakpoints.

  • ☐ Base path set to /{slug}/portal/ in vite.config.js
  • ☐ No unicode escape sequences in JSX source or built output
  • ☐ No stale artifacts (--emptyOutDir before copy)
  • ☐ Every data value traces to spec, synthesis, or HubSpot record
  • ☐ Build succeeds and index.html loads at deploy URL
  • ☐ No forbidden language
●

Invocation Triggers

/portal command invoked for a client → spawn showcase
Pavilion detects stale portal and requests rebuild → spawn showcase
"Build portal for {client}" or "Deploy walkthrough" → spawn showcase
Presentation or microsite creation requested → spawn showcase
●

Feedback Loop

Quality gate failures: when post-deploy checks find issues, that failure is a Showcase build process gap. The 19-gate checklist is updated when new failure modes are discovered.

Handoff

Pavilion (validates experience post-build), Lookout (post-deploy URL verification)

Scope Boundary

Showcase builds and deploys. Pavilion owns the experience and detects staleness. Architect provides the specs Showcase consumes.
