Today's Adventure
It's the day before launch. We're conducting final preparations and full system verification for tomorrow's, February 20th, gate opening. We've fundamentally fixed the broken Growth Engine save functionality and implemented automatic saving of auto-generated images to the media library. We also concurrently verified three major systems: the feedback loop, metrics pipeline, and cold start. Results: No major issues.

Achievements
What we accomplished

Identified and fixed the root cause of the Growth Engine save bug — after 5 attempts, it turned out to be a nested form issue in HTML, resolved with 3 lines of code.
Implemented automatic saving of auto-generated images to the media library — automatically registers images in the generated/ path to the assets table during draft creation.
FL Closed-Loop Verification: Normal — All stages operational, optimization_rules/keyword_proposals functioning correctly, zero errors (7 days).
Grok Metrics Verification: 16 updates successful via X API fallback. Confirmed Grok free metrics malfunction fixed in S57.
Cold Start Determination: Normal — Posts < 30 set cold_start=True, correctly phased based on ER performance. Identified all tier limit locations (7 files, complete mapping of limit check logic). Initiated a bug-squashing operation by the agent army (comprehensive code and logic review running in the background). Achievements in Numbers Commits: 2 (frontend aa81010, x-growth 6443a98) Files Modified: 2 Issues Resolved: 1 Critical (GE nested form) + 1 Feature (asset auto-save) + Full System Verification What Went Wrong Growth Engine Save — Took 5 tries to get it right. What Happened: We attempted 5 fixes for the Growth Engine settings save bug: client-side merge, server-side merge, adding defaults, and changing button UX, but all failed. The user said they couldn't spare more time. Cause: We overlooked a fundamental HTML rule: nested `

` tags are invalid. The `

` in GrowthEngineWidget was nested inside the `

` of PersonaForm, causing the browser to ignore the inner form. The "Save Growth Settings" button was actually submitting the outer PersonaForm. We focused on data flow logic and didn't check the DOM structure.
How it was Resolved:
A direct database query confirmed that "Growth Engine fields never reached the DB." From there, rereading PersonaForm.tsx revealed the nested form. The issue was resolved with 3 lines of code: changing `

` to `

` and `type="submit"` to `type="button" onClick=...`.
Lesson Learned:
When "data isn't reaching," check the DOM before the logic. HTML `

` nesting is invalid — no exceptions in React. This has been recorded in lessons_learned.

The Reality of Vibecoding
Human × AI Partnership

What went well: In response to the user's suggestion to "avoid a major overhaul of Persona," we identified the root cause (3-line fix) and averted significant changes. Parallel agent verification of FL, Grok, and cold start saved time.
Areas for Reflection: The Growth Engine save took 5 trial-and-error attempts. We should have confirmed the database directly sooner. We should have investigated "data not saving" by first asking "is it even reaching the API?"

Antigravity + Claude Code Utilization Points

Technique: Launched 3 verification agents in parallel to check FL, metrics, and cold start simultaneously. Results were compiled into a summary table for an at-a-glance understanding of "no major issues."
Tip for Solo Developers: For pre-launch "full system health checks," parallel agents are the most effective. What would have taken half a day manually checking logs can now be done in minutes. Background agents can also run comprehensive code reviews.

Towards Launch
All launch blockers have been cleared. Tier limit display corrections and a comprehensive bug review by the agent army are in progress. No critical issues have been discovered.

Pickup Hook (For Media and Community)

Technical Topic: The HTML `

` nesting issue — When using Form components in React with shadcn/ui, an invisible form tag is generated. Contrary to expectations that parent-child forms would function independently, the browser completely ignores the inner form. This is why 5 "correct logic fixes" were rendered useless.
Story: On the eve of launch, "full system health checks" were performed using parallel AI agents. FL closed-loop, Grok metrics, and cold start determination were verified simultaneously. What would take half a day manually was done by agents in 2 minutes. The result: "no major issues" — this is how solo developers can achieve enterprise-grade QA.

Tomorrow's Adventure Preview

Gate opens. First users arrive.
Complete tier limit display corrections.
Scrutinize agent army review results for final fixes.
Confirm production monitoring system.

Tomorrow, the gates open. After 58 sessions and hundreds of commits, we've finally reached this point. All systems normal, no critical bugs. Now, it's time to dive into the turbulent waters of production. We are ready.
