W9
Week 9 – Feb 23–27, 2026
Focus: Pod health monitoring & first vibe-match refinements
Key Outcomes
- Deployed basic pod health dashboard (real-time vibe drift detection using embedding cosine distance over time)
- Fixed critical bug in SEED → plan generation where Grok was hallucinating unavailable tools
- Improved matching algorithm: added weighted skill + attitude vectors (70/30 split after A/B testing with 3 pods)
- Shipped: First automated "nudge" system — AI-O now pings humans when momentum stalls >48h
- Live build highlight: Re-architected workspace provisioning to use temporal tables instead of flat JSON (10× faster queries)
What Broke / Learned
- Initial vibe-drift model over-penalized minor disagreements → relaxed threshold from 0.25 → 0.18 cosine
- Figma API rate limits killed auto-wireframe generation mid-demo — now batching requests
- Lesson: Always test orchestration loops with sleep delays; real humans don't respond in 300ms
Next Week (W10) Preview
- Launch first cross-pod knowledge sharing (shared memory layer between related pods)
- Integrate Discord voice → transcript → action items loop
- Run public vibe-coding jam (theme: "AI escapes mediocre teams")
