* Profile information for name, headline, introduction, contact details, LinkedIn, GitHub, resume, location, and profile photo.

* Project Categories for organizing projects by discipline or type.
* Frontend project search that matches project titles and Technologies Used, plus category filtering.
* Complete Portfolio mode that automatically creates a portfolio page.
* Projects Only mode for use with Gutenberg, Elementor, Beaver Builder, or another page-building workflow.
* Student Project Grid Gutenberg block.
* [agbsp_student_projects] shortcode.

* Public machine-readable portfolio REST endpoint, with email/phone exposure opt-in and off by default.
* Career Metadata for target roles, skills, institution, degree/program, graduation, and availability.
* Optional public career-profile REST feed for future recruiter/search integrations.
Projects -> Settings -> General includes controls for portfolio mode, project-grid columns, Course visibility, and Technologies visibility. Projects -> Settings -> Career Metadata stores structured career information and controls the optional public career feed.
