Housecarl will be a firewall manager for nftables, built the way Jarl and
Steward are: housecarld (a daemon with a REST API and web UI), hc (the
CLI) and SQLite.
- The logo: a carved Nordic doorway in Jarl's blue (artwork/logo.svg),
with a small version without the carvings, lighter on dark
backgrounds. scripts/logo.py builds the web UI's copies and
scripts/banner.py the README banner.
- The HOUSECARL wordmark in Jarl's and Steward's angular letters, with
new H, O, U and C (assets/brand.js), and the UI's color tokens.
- housecarld and hc print their version; the Makefile, version package,
AGENTS.md, CHANGELOG and the design sketch (docs/design.md).
