Build Log — YSKAIPE | Human Cohesive AI

Session Note March 3, 2026 10:30 AM – 1:30 PM EST

CrewAI Bitcoin Pod Kickoff

Deep Work Block — 3hrs · Bitcoin Protocol · CrewAI · Python

Progress

✓ Created & shipped public repo: github.com/yskaipe/crewai-bitcoin-pod — first dedicated CrewAI + Python multi-agent space for Bitcoin pod orchestration.

✓ Initial crew script bitcoin_crew.py: defined Bitcoin Protocol Expert + AI Agent Orchestrator agents, research tasks for node interaction & autonomous pod flows.

✓ Fixed setup bugs: path error resolved; Pydantic validation fixed by changing Crew(verbose=2) → verbose=True (CrewAI now enforces boolean, not int levels).

✓ First execution successful (ID: fde65623-...) — Bitcoin Researcher agent launched, detailed startup and task-begin logs confirmed.

✗ Blocker: LLM call failed mid-task — Invalid Groq API Key (GroqException 401 via litellm). Crew execution halted.

✓ GitHub profile polish: consistent topics added across active repos — crewai, ai-agents, bitcoin, python, human-cohesive-ai, fastapi.

Learnings

◈ CrewAI evolves fast — verbosity params changed (int levels → bool flag). Always verify against current version docs before a session.

◈ Groq integration: regen fresh key at console.groq.com if 401. Quick fallback: llm = "ollama/llama3.2" for cost-free local iteration.

◈ Portfolio value: public debugging trails (path fix → verbose fix → API auth) are strong signal for applied AI roles in 2026.

Next Steps

→ Regen / validate Groq key (or switch to Ollama local), re-run full crew → capture Bitcoin research summary + proposed orchestration structure.

→ Integrate real tools (e.g. bitcoinrpc wrapper). Prep March 4 Wednesday live session: demo initial CrewAI crew + Bitcoin pod integration progress.

Pod Health Monitoring & Vibe-Match Refinements

Focus: Real-time drift detection + weighted matching algorithm

Latest

Shipped

✓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).

✓First automated "nudge" system — AI-O now pings humans when momentum stalls >48h.

✓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 cosine threshold from 0.25 → 0.18.

✗Figma API rate limits killed auto-wireframe generation mid-demo — now batching requests.

◈Always test orchestration loops with sleep delays — real humans don't respond in 300ms.

Week 10 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").

Week 8 · Feb 16–20, 2026

First Multi-Human Pod Orchestration

Focus: 3-person + AI-O pod running 72 hours

Highlights

✓Successfully ran 3-person + AI-O pod for 72 hours (Bitcoin analysis sprint).

✓Added real-time milestone checkpoints with Grok reasoning summaries.

✗Over-eager AI intervention caused vibe friction → added "ask before acting" toggle.

✓Pod creation form now supports optional "vibe keywords" for better matching.

"The moment the human said 'nah, let's pivot' and Grok immediately re-planned without argument — that's when I knew we were onto something."
