Add lightweight self-hosted Hugo CMS with GitHub API backend

Implements a Go-based CMS for editing Hugo posts and uploading images
via the GitHub REST API, with no database and Git as the source of truth.

Features:
- Single admin auth with bcrypt password and signed session cookies
- Dashboard, post listing with search, create/edit with EasyMDE editor
- Media library for static/uploads/ with drag-drop and clipboard paste
- Client-side autosave, unsaved changes warning, dark mode, responsive UI
- Modular packages for auth, github, posts, media, session, and handlers

+# Hugo CMS
+
+A lightweight, self-hosted CMS for Hugo websites. Edit posts and upload images from desktop or mobile while keeping **Git as the single source of truth**. No database required.
+
+All repository operations go through the **GitHub REST API** — the server never runs `git` commands.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+Browser → Go Server → GitHub REST API → GitHub Repository → GitHub Action → Hugo Site
+```
+
+## Features
+
+- Single admin authentication (bcrypt password hash + secure session cookie)
+- Dashboard with post stats and recent posts
+- Create and edit Hugo posts with automatic front matter generation
+- EasyMDE markdown editor with split preview, toolbar, drag/drop images, and keyboard shortcuts
+- Media library for uploading images to `static/uploads/`
+- Client-side autosave (every 30 seconds) and unsaved changes warning
+- Dark mode and responsive layout
+- Auto-generated slugs from titles

+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in the values:
+
+| Variable | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `GITHUB_TOKEN` | GitHub personal access token with `repo` scope |
+| `GITHUB_OWNER` | Repository owner (user or org) |
+| `GITHUB_REPO` | Repository name |
+| `GITHUB_BRANCH` | Branch to commit to (default: `master`) |
+| `SESSION_SECRET` | Random string for signing session cookies |
+| `ADMIN_USERNAME` | Admin login username |
+| `ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH` | Bcrypt hash of admin password |
+| `ADDR` | Listen address (default: `:8080`) |
+| `COOKIE_SECURE` | Set `false` for local HTTP dev (default: `true`) |
+
+### Generate a password hash
+
+```bash
+cd cms
+go run ./cmd/hashpassword 'your-secure-password'
+```
+
+### Generate a session secret
+
+```bash
+openssl rand -hex 32
+```
+
+## Running Locally
+
+```bash
+cd cms
+go mod tidy
+export GITHUB_TOKEN=...
+export GITHUB_OWNER=...
+export GITHUB_REPO=...
+export SESSION_SECRET=...
+export ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
+export ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH=...
+export COOKIE_SECURE=false
+go run ./cmd/server
+```
+
+Open http://localhost:8080/admin
+
+## HTTP Routes
+
+| Method | Path | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|
+| GET | `/login` | Login page |
+| POST | `/login` | Authenticate |
+| POST | `/logout` | End session |
+| GET | `/admin` | Dashboard |
+| GET | `/admin/posts` | Post listing |
+| GET | `/admin/posts/new` | New post editor |
+| GET | `/admin/posts/:slug` | Edit post |
+| GET | `/admin/media` | Media library |
+| POST | `/api/posts/save` | Save post to GitHub |
+| POST | `/api/media/upload` | Upload image |
+| GET | `/api/media` | List uploaded images |
+
+## Deployment
+
+Build a static binary and run behind a reverse proxy (nginx, Caddy, etc.) with HTTPS:
+
+```bash
+cd cms
+CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -o hugo-cms ./cmd/server
+```
+
+Example Caddy config:
+
+```
+cms.example.com {
+    reverse_proxy localhost:8080
+}
+```
+
+Set `COOKIE_SECURE=true` in production so session cookies are only sent over HTTPS.
+
+## Post Format
+
+Posts are saved to `content/posts/<slug>.md` with Hugo front matter:
+
+```yaml
+---
+title: "Hello World"
+date: 2026-07-06T18:00:00Z
+draft: false
+tags:
+  - hugo
+  - programming
+---
+
+My markdown content.
+```
+
+Images are stored at `static/uploads/<filename>` and referenced as `![](/uploads/image.png)`.
+
+## GitHub Token Permissions
+
+The token needs write access to the repository contents. A fine-grained token with **Contents: Read and write** on the target repo, or a classic token with the `repo` scope, is sufficient.
