Two Worlds Analysis: Konnect vs Dev
Review of content differentiation between business data and developer tooling in kontasks
Output
Two Worlds: Inception Analysis
Are we at risk of getting lost between Konnect (product) and Kon* (tooling)?
Konnect World
Business domain / CMS data
- Property listings
- Suburbs & regions
- Prices, agents, images
- konnect.homes / konnect.rentals
~81 kontasks (57%)
Dev World
Tooling / Infrastructure
- Kongate, Konimage, Konui
- Tests, logs, schemas
- Pipeline performance
- Code architecture
~62 kontasks (43%)
Current Styling Analysis
The Inception Risk
Current state: There's some natural differentiation happening, but it's inconsistent:
- Dev reports tend to use dark theme (#1e1e1e)
- Listings tend to use light theme (#fff)
- But the Konnect gold branding (#c99542) is almost never applied to actual listing data!
- Kontask detail view applies gold styling to embedded content, but raw output lacks it
Examples: What Each World Looks Like
Konnect World Output (Light Theme)
34 properties · Multiple suburbs
Clean but generic - could be any real estate site
Dev World Output (Dark Theme)
7,577 log entries · All services healthy
Clearly developer-focused, terminal aesthetic
Recommendations
1. Add Visual World Indicators
Small badge/icon in kontask header showing which world:
- KONNECT for business data (detected via keywords: listing, property, suburb, price)
- DEVTOOLS for infrastructure (detected via: test, log, schema, pipeline, kon*)
2. Enforce Branded Styling for Konnect Data
Update CLAUDE.md output templates:
- Listing cards should have gold header bar
- Suburb profiles should feel like konnect.homes pages
- Prices should use Playfair Display font
3. Distinct Dev Theme
Keep One Dark (#1e1e1e) but add visual cue:
- Purple accent instead of gold
- Terminal-style header bar (black with purple text)
- Monospace font for all dev content
4. Context Breadcrumb
Add small breadcrumb showing the layer:
Dashboard Console → Kontask → Konnect Data Dashboard Console → Kontask → Dev Tooling
Assessment: Do We Need This Now?
| Risk of confusion: | Medium - getting worse as kontasks accumulate |
| Current differentiation: | Partial - dark vs light themes help |
| Effort to fix: | Low-Medium - mostly template updates |
| Should block Phase 1: | No - can do alongside or after |
Verdict: The two-worlds issue is real but not blocking. The natural dark/light theme split provides some differentiation. I recommend adding the world badges (Recommendation #1) as a quick win alongside Phase 1. Full branded styling can come later.
