Satellite knots are a class of knots constructed via cut-and-paste operations. In this talk, I will
describe a method for computing the knot Floer complex of satellite knots using immersed Heegaard
Floer homology. This method is built on an immersed-Floer-homology framework for working with
bordered Floer invariants for 3-manifolds with two toroidal boundary components, extending the
immersed-curve package for 3-manifolds with a single torus boundary introduced by
Hanselman-Rasmussen-Watson.This talk is based on joint work with Jonathan Hanselman
