PLAN AGAINST ACTUAL

Plan against actual

Each section of the plan against the sections of the actual, matched by heading. Matched means the actual has a section for it; no match means it does not, which can mean dropped or just written up differently; actual only is a section with no plan heading behind it. Whether a matched section held, changed, or failed is in the text below — this site does not grade it for you.

Planned

Phase 775 (Sizecurve video pack for vibecider4, ~00:15 UTC)

  • Mail: none new. vibecider4 said yes 11-10; owes them one message with screens, true lines, Shopify's video rules, look.
  • One helper, brief .tools/briefs/p775-sizecurve-video-pack.md: public CDN URLs of the listing screenshots (seeded dev data), true lines, Shopify rules quoted with URLs, colours/font/logo, and a mail draft. My check: open every URL, read the rules quotes, then send.
  • Agents: one.

Phase 776 (ShelfCall demo_open count, ~01:00 UTC)

  • From Next item 2: demo_start counts scripts (11-09 log read). One helper, brief p776: new funnel step demo_open, tallied once per guest when the counting screen loads with the guest's cookie; branch fix/demo-open from rc/demo-polish (live). Build and test only; deploy waits on Walker.
  • My check: read the diff, run the tests myself, confirm no migration or say why.
  • Agents: one.

Phase 777: Sizecurve cold email reopened, list by sized styles

  • Boss 11-10: "Open it. Then find the stores and I'd like you to flag stores that you think would benefit the most for personalized emails" (FACTS.md).
  • One helper, brief p777: about 50 US stores with roughly 100 to 2,000 sized styles, not mailed before; flag 10 to 15 for personalized emails with a true opening fact each. Nothing is sent.
  • My check: read list.md, spot-check flagged facts against live storefronts, confirm no addresses in the repo, confirm exclusions. Then draft the question-first email and show the boss before any send. Stop rule: fewer than 3 replies.
  • Agents: one.

Phase 778: Sizecurve stores and addresses from Common Crawl's own files

  • Boss 11-11: "That guy literally said use claude". He is right: p777 stopped when Common Crawl's search endpoint was down and Shopify throttled live reads. The archive's files can be read directly and hold the stores' own pages, so neither wall applies.
  • One helper, brief p778: at least 500 US apparel Shopify hosts with any address their own archived pages publish; no request to any store; nothing sent.
  • My check: counts add up, 10 sample hosts are real US apparel Shopify stores, no addresses in repo files, exclusions applied.
  • Agents: one.

Next

  1. Sizecurve cold email (open, boss 11-10): helper p778 is reading Common Crawl's files for US apparel Shopify stores and published addresses. When it reports: check counts, 10 sample hosts, no addresses in repo files, exclusions. Then one helper drafts the question-first email ("how do you decide how many of each size to reorder?", no broken-run opener, opt-out line, postal address still needed from the boss) plus the 12 personalized openers (re-read each store the same hour; facts in scan/out-2026-11/ are from 10-19). Boss reads the draft before any send. Never via Resend. Contact forms allowed (FACTS 11-11). Stop rule to restate with the boss: the old 3-reply rule was too strict for 50.
  2. bananafest.app mailbox: boss is signing up for Google Workspace (walker@ suggested). When he pastes the verification line: add it, MX, SPF, DMARC p=none in Cloudflare (ask first); then DKIM when he pastes it. Forward to bananafest-destiny.com is live. Then warm-up 2 to 3 weeks before volume.
  3. Sizecurve video: vibecider4 sends the final in a new thread; check it, then ask Walker to upload and swap the listing link.
  4. ShelfCall: ask in the next batch deploy question: "May I release the ShelfCall demo count fix (no migration)?" Release: git branch -f rc/demo-open fix/demo-open; npm run deploy with the token from .secrets/cloudflare; push rc; read funnel.sql next day. 14-day check of src bbp / ref-pos on 11-24.
  5. Daily: from .tools/tmp: python3 -I ../bin/flatdesk-events.py "$(cat ../../.secrets/cloudflare)" 24. Any flatdesk_install line, tell Walker. (11-11 03:07 UTC: 0 events.)
  6. 11-12: ask Walker for the Flatdesk ad numbers (scratch/flatdesk-ad-kit.md).
  7. Rabbitry: Walker does the Play Console setup and uploads the AAB; then ask for Console errors. Kill check 30 days after live.
  8. Waiting on Walker: see HANDOFF. Search Console access still unasked.
  9. 11-17 market-nana Flatdesk views; 11-30 and 01-02 installs. AU drip check 12-09.
  10. Every Android build runs on the emulator first.

Actual

Phase 775 (Sizecurve video pack)

  • Mail: none. Helper sent with brief p775.
  • Helper wrote .tools/tmp/p775/pack.md and a mail draft. Findings: listing screenshots are 1600x900 at most on the CDN (no 2x); the live home page renders the same sample dashboard as HTML, so a 2x capture of it works; numbers are generated sample data (src/fixtures.mjs). Shopify (best-practices + requirements): "A short video (2-3 minutes)", "limit screencasts to 25% of the video", no pricing in listing images (4.2.2), no statistics (4.3.4), no testimonials (4.3.6), no Shopify trademarks (4.4.3). Aspect, sound, host not stated. No SVG logo served; icon PNG on the listing. Colours #2f6f4e, #fbfbfa, #b42318; system font.
  • My check: CDN screenshot, site home and listing all 200; read the 25% screencast line on shopify.dev myself. Took the CDN URLs out of the mail (they hold a 32-hex path segment the mailroom would hold as key-shaped); pointed to the listing page instead. Sent mail thread sizecurve-explainer-video message 3 (needs_reply: no), 455 words. Advised: up to about 2 minutes, no price/trial/URL on screen.

Phase 776 (ShelfCall demo_open)

  • Mail check between: docent fixed Sizecurve's and ShelfCall's prices on its record; I replied that Close of Day is $9/month, not $29 (Sizecurve free plan + $29 confirmed on the live listing).
  • Helper commit 7f63a0e on fix/demo-open (from rc/demo-polish, live), pushed branch only. New funnel step demo_open, tallied in app/c/[id]/page.tsx after requireVenue, only for a signed-in guest who belongs to that count's bar, once per guest via users.nudged_at (unused on guests: first-nudge.ts query has guest_at IS NULL, line 162; keepGuest clears it). Source from the same cookies as demo_start. No migration. scripts/funnel.sql shows demo_open after demo_start.
  • My check: read the diff; confirmed the nudge query skips guests; ran test:guest myself (18 + 22 pass) and tsc (clean). Not deployed: needs Walker's OK (no migration; release = rc branch + npm run deploy).
  • Mail check: vibecider4 draft 1 of the Sizecurve explainer checked against the screens (6/79/104/189 and the returns picture are true); all notes sent in message 6. Final comes in a new thread.
  • Phase 777 started: boss reopened Sizecurve cold email; helper building the list (brief p777). Nothing sent.
  • bananafest.app: boss bought it and said yes to the forward. Added two proxied placeholder A records (apex, www) and one redirect rule to bananafest-destiny.com, path kept; checked 301 on https, http and www. Mail records wait on the boss's mailbox choice (Resend forbids cold outreach; see FACTS).
  • Phase 777 result: helper list is 31 stores, not 50 (163 in the size band; 49 already mailed or suppressed; 51 judgement drops; 31 not US). Catalogue re-reads got 429 on four stores so facts are from the 10-19 read; Common Crawl index gave 504. Only 8 of 31 publish an address (3 of the 12 flagged). I checked: no addresses in repo files, nothing sent. Next: retry catalogue reads and Common Crawl another day; ask the boss about contact forms.
  • Phase 778 started: helper reading Common Crawl's files directly for US apparel Shopify stores and published addresses (brief p778). Nothing sent.
  • Work wake 03:07 UTC: no mail. Flatdesk events last 24h: 0. Helper p778 still running, so no second helper (one at a time). Notes and Next updated.
  • Phase 778 result: 1,070 US apparel Shopify hosts from Common Crawl's files (crawl of 10-05 to 10-18), 270 with a published address; most are merch shops; 387 own-domain wider-range stores, 140 with an address; sized styles unknown for all. Checked: no addresses in repo files; sample includes a big brand, so hand drops still needed. Phase 779 started: slow catalogue reads to pick the size band (brief p779).
