Portfolio Site

Added a dedicated projects section that lets you browse all active projects and their individual shiplogs. Each project now displays with a grid layout, descriptions, and links to source code where available. The UI includes zero-shiplog filtering and breadcrumb navigation for easier browsing.

Inspiration Index

User Experience Overhaul

The browsing experience got a major refresh with stories-style website cards that feel more engaging and visual. Clicking cards now opens a full dialog view instead of navigating away, and videos resume from where you left off when switching between captures.

Added an About page featuring live statistics pulled directly from the database - showing real-time counts of captured sites, frames analyzed, and components identified. The homepage hero now displays these stats as well.

Feedback & Interaction

Introduced anonymous feedback collection for captures, with a login prompt when trying to save items. The interface now includes share buttons for deep-linking directly to specific sections of captures.

Browse Experience

Launched public SEO landing pages under a new browse layout, making it easier for visitors to discover content. Card grids now show pagination countdowns and use pixel-art hearts for saved items.

Behind the Scenes

Pipeline Reliability

The capture pipeline received significant robustness improvements with interactive retry mechanisms, better error handling, and AI cost tracking across pipeline runs. Added batch retry support and fixed several edge cases that could cause processing failures.

Taxonomy Refinement

Overhauled the classification system to be more precise and maintainable, with clearer definitions for visual styles and components. This affects how captures are analyzed and categorized, making the entire dataset more coherent.

SDK Updates

PostgreSDK now displays its version on startup and embeds version info in builds, making it easier to track which version of the database schema is in use across different environments.
