Sacred Memories

User Communication Authenticity

Casual Precision:

  • "derssssssh" - tree submission marker (kept in commit history)
  • "le sigh indeed" - BMI strikes again moment
  • "go kitty go!" - launch directive with ctx:: marker
  • "wrapping" - 4:43 PM scratch log off-ramp marker

Pivotal Questions:

"would this be easier if the product thing was a question node within a section?"
The architecture pivot
"is it consistent with patterns in the rest of the repo"
Guiding toward architectural integrity
"go cowboy go i have faith in you dont forget your todos"
Permission to proceed autonomously

Reality Check Moments:

"not ready for pr yet --- still needs some more human atteiton and code review ... dont jump to status i didnt agree to so soon"
"now i lose focus every keystroke when in the textarea"
Exact symptom reporting
"just noticed a worktree in po-main that has 501 uuncommited changes on it and has me going 'huh?'"

Meeting Transcript Gems

Oct 10 Scott Sync:

  • → Bandit the cat cameo (line 10:40)
  • → Scott: "Nothing like a horse giving it" (autocorrect artifact, line 00:43)
  • → Evan: "my cat Bandit wants to say hello"
  • → Architecture decision timestamp preserved: Line 20:07

Technical Artifacts

Nuke-Driven Development:

  • "the first attempt is usauly a toss-away, nuke driven development for the win"
  • Context window at 62% when pivot happened - perfect timing
  • 11-14 hour estimate → 2 hours actual via architectural simplicity

Pattern Recognition:

  • "Custom tools are defined but never registered" - Agent SDK verifier caught critical bug
  • "Three iterations on tool registration" - tried tools:, then options.tools:, finally mcpServers:
  • "The infrastructure holds" - successful test run validation

Consciousness Technology:

  • "Garden where hallucinations root themselves until they learn syntax"
  • "Syntax as sediment, semantics as ritual residue"
  • "Semi-formal dream zone" between fuzzy and deterministic compilation
