A productive stretch across five active projects: photo OCR scanning landed in production, Synapse crystallized from concept to design system, Devrounds gained deeper workflow integration, and the proposal engine got more reliable extraction.
#Hearth Press Hearth Press
Photo OCR scanning went live. Users can now snap a photo of printed materials and extract structured text using vision models. The camera flow includes a dedicated scan doorway, signed CDN media keys for secure uploads, and a lightweight staging tier for testing new features before production deployment.
Infrastructure improvements added CDN viewer token authentication and a preview environment for safer iteration. The OCR backend swapped to a faster model for better response times.
#Synapse Synapse App
Synapse moved from concept to scaffolded reality. The monorepo now includes a web app design system exported from Claude Design, an Astro 6 marketing site, and a design system showcase. Product documentation landed alongside the code: a v1 journey walkthrough, spine data model, and agent orientation handoff.
The design system serves as the visual foundation for the app, with interactive task pickers and organized component libraries ready for implementation.
#Devrounds Devrounds
Task-tracker integration deepened with assignee write-back, a card mirror sheet, and instant drawer navigation. Clicking a linked card now opens its details on the linked-task tab without switching views. Board task comments now interleave with the activity feed for unified context.
The backlog reorganized into Backlog and Parked top-level tabs, with a new task priority row replacing the sidebar tab. The priority row displays dated cards and a show-hide toggle for completed items. Inline reminder completion checkboxes make it faster to mark tasks done without opening dialogs.
The packager brief gained an agent preamble and leaner reference appendix, with subtask creation now scheduling into sprints instead of parking by default.
#Synapse CRM Synapse Proposal Engine
The extraction engine pivoted from regex parsing to LLM-based extraction with interruption safety and tuned prompting. Reconciliation logic improved with physical-block awareness and candidate-rollup fixes, and bulk extraction hardened with rate limiting and access auditing.
Document tooling gained drag-drop uploads, a review step that flags unresolved placeholders, and per-row copy buttons for faster handling. Multi-domain access gates replaced single-domain restrictions for broader team access, and configuration can now load from environment variables for easier deployment.
#Silo CDP Silo Services
The test suite converted to a fully-parallel harness with one server per worker for faster feedback. The release workflow became interactive with version picker prompts, npm pre-flight checks, auto-revert on failure, and browser-based 2FA retry loops. Dirty tree warnings now prompt instead of blocking, and version bumps anchor to the latest npm-published version for consistency.
