Erich Blume b0bac91ca9 Fix frontmatter field name for Quartz date display (#158)
## Summary

- Rename `date-modified` -> `modified` in all 80 docs and the `docs-check-frontmatter` task

Quartz's `CreatedModifiedDate` plugin recognizes `modified`, `lastmod`, `updated`, and `last-modified` — but not `date-modified`. The wrong field name caused Quartz to ignore frontmatter dates entirely and fall through to filesystem timestamps (UTC inside Dagger), showing Feb 12 on pages built late on Feb 11 PST.

## Test plan

- [x] `mise run docs-check-frontmatter` passes
- [ ] Kick off docs release after merge — verify rendered dates match frontmatter values

# Transmission
BitTorrent daemon, primarily for downloading ZIM archives for [[kiwix]].
## Quick Reference
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **URL** | https://torrent.ops.eblu.me |
| **Tailscale URL** | https://torrent.tail8d86e.ts.net |
| **Namespace** | `torrent` |
| **Image** | `lscr.io/linuxserver/transmission:latest` |
| **Storage** | NFS PVC from [[sifaka|Sifaka]] |
## Storage Layout
NFS share on sifaka (`/volume1/torrents`):
| Path | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `/downloads/` | Active downloads and metadata |
| `/downloads/complete/` | Completed downloads |
| `/config/` | Transmission configuration |
| `/watch/` | Watch directory for .torrent files |
[[kiwix]] reads from `/downloads/complete/` to serve ZIM archives.
## Integration with Kiwix
The Kiwix deployment includes a torrent-sync sidecar that:
1. Reads ZIM torrent list from ConfigMap
2. Adds missing torrents via RPC
3. Runs on startup and every 30 minutes
When downloads complete, the zim-watcher CronJob detects new ZIMs and restarts Kiwix.
## Monitoring
Basic uptime via blackbox probe in [[alloy|Alloy]] k8s (Services Health dashboard).
Web UI shows: active/seeding/paused counts, speeds, disk usage.
