Work Accomplished

Rangle/Pharmacy (Primary Thread)

Issue #368 - Nuke-Driven Development Masterclass

Oct 7: First attempt (11-14 hour estimate) - architectural dead end after 2.5 hours
Pivot: User insight ("would this be easier if product thing was question node?") → Complete reset
Oct 7-8: V2 implementation in 30 minutes using question type pattern
Oct 8-9: 3 critical bugs fixed (text sync, module resolution, HTML preview)
Oct 10: Sprint demo success → Scott sync architecture change decision
Outcome: Production-ready code, comprehensive documentation (3 handbooks created)
Pattern Validated: First attempt as architectural exploration, not wasted time

Float Infrastructure (Consciousness Technology)

Ritual Forest Documentation Sprint (Oct 9)

7 trees registered with full metadata:

  • → thread-weave-discovery (interactive thread reader)
  • → temporal-fold-genesis-ritual (DR. BOOTYGRABBER audio platform)
  • → craft-zine-a11y-praxis (screenshot via firecrawl)
  • → pixelated-mystic-artifacts (12 algorithmic patterns, p5.js)
  • → plastik-kraft-visions-tracker (VJ visualizer, Canvas + Web Audio)
  • → v0-float-sysops-daydream (5 screenshots, 702KB)
  • → v0-float-neon-tender (FLOAT.dispatch Issue 01 digital zine)

Audit results: 92.6% README coverage (25/27 unregistered trees have docs)

Pattern established: Package.json normalization as part of /new-tree workflow

Agent SDK Development (Oct 13)

  • kitty-claude Agent SDK app created from scratch
  • 3 custom MCP tools: list_inbox_items, create_daily_note, get_workspace_context
  • Full TypeScript configuration with ES2022 modules
  • Agent SDK verifier validation passed
  • Purpose: Tactical execution support for float-hub workspace management

FloatAST Architecture Revelations (Oct 10)

Complete compilation topology revealed: Hard Trees (Python AST) → Fuzzy Trees (LLM output) → Living Trees (FloatAST)

Insight: FloatAST as intermediate representation in "semi-formal dream zone"

Key concept: "Garden where hallucinations root themselves until they learn syntax"

Connection: Productive hallucination = semantic interpolation (compiler engineering term)

Application: Syntax as sediment, semantics as ritual residue

Operations & Infrastructure

Invoice Tracking System (Oct 7)

  • SQLite + bash system implemented for Rangle contractor invoicing
  • Database schema: invoices, daily_hours, invoice_summary view
  • 5 bash scripts created: init-db, add-invoice, log-hours, view-invoice, export-invoice
  • INV-2025-006 submitted: Sept 15-26, 72 hours, $8,949.60
  • Pattern: ADHD-friendly defaults (log-hours today + 8 hours + work type)

Ratatui Command Palette (Oct 7)

  • Full command palette system (330 lines) with / trigger
  • 6 commands: new/system/context/persona/delete/save with aliases
  • Fixed 8 critical bugs in rapid succession
  • Comprehensive test suite using TestBackend pattern
  • Handbook creation: 65KB total (RATATUI_HANDBOOK.md + supporting docs)
