Serve the site under demo.lumbridgecorp.com as well
One Caddy block, both names, same root. The prerendered HTML already carries <link rel="canonical"> and og:url pointing at the primeintellectgrowth name on every route, so the alias does not split search ranking or leave a shared link ambiguous about which site it belongs to. Verified byte-identical: both hostnames return the same sha256 for /demos/wordle. Worth recording why the alias failed before this rather than 404ing. lumbridgecorp.com resolves on a WILDCARD, so every subdomain of it points at cloud-2 whether or not Caddy knows the name. DNS completes, TLS opens, Caddy finds no certificate for that SNI and aborts the handshake — the browser reports ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR, which reads as "the site is down" rather than "wrong hostname". primeintellectgrowth.com has no wildcard, which is why the canonical name needed an explicit A record. deploy.sh now smoke-tests the alias too: if the block is ever edited to drop the second name, the failure mode is a TLS error, and nothing else would catch it. The live block is mirrored into deploy/Caddyfile.demo so the config is reviewable in the repo rather than only on the host.

## Two hostnames, one root
|
||||
|
||||
Both names serve the same build. The prerendered HTML carries
|
||||
`<link rel="canonical">` and `og:url` pointing at the **primeintellectgrowth**
|
||||
name on every route, so the alias does not split search ranking or make a shared
|
||||
link ambiguous about which site it belongs to.
|
||||
|
||||
⚠️ **`lumbridgecorp.com` resolves on a wildcard.** Every subdomain of it points
|
||||
at cloud-2 whether or not Caddy has a block for it — so an unconfigured or
|
||||
mistyped name completes DNS, opens TLS, finds no certificate for that SNI, and
|
||||
fails the handshake with `ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR`. That reads as "the site is
|
||||
broken" when it means "that is not a site". `primeintellectgrowth.com` has no
|
||||
wildcard, which is why the canonical name needed an explicit A record.
|
||||
|
||||
`deploy.sh` smoke-tests the alias for exactly this reason: if the block is ever
|
||||
edited to drop the second name, the failure is a TLS error rather than a 404,
|
||||
and nothing else would notice.
