Changelog

• 🛠 Deploy process got an extra safety step

Aug 9th — Pause Scheduling

• ⭐️ If there's been no engagement for a month, Kit automatically pauses scheduling so it isn't nudging you while you're away

Aug 4th — Keep In Touch, Running Late & Deploy

• 🚀 First version deployed using our new deployment tool
• ⭐️ Kit now reaches out to contacts who've gone unresponsive to confirm they still want to keep in touch
• ⭐️ Running a few minutes late? You can now reschedule a call off the usual :00 / :20 / :40 marks — as long as it doesn't conflict with another call
• 🛠 Deploy tool upgraded to pull a specific tagged release instead of checking out the latest branch tip

Aug 3rd — Smarter Time Handling

• ⭐️ If you suggest a time that's a little off the mark (like the :30), Kit now lets you know it adjusted things slightly instead of silently rounding

• 🛠 Optimization: stopped fetching context twice when replying to a message

• 🛠 Pass the contact_id of the person you're accepting/declining availability for

Mar 1st — Planning Mode

🤔 Spent all day planning. Currently, Kit tries to "guess" who it's talking to based on the last messages sent/received. Is it a user? Is it a contact? What if they are a contact of multiple users? What if this person is a user AND a contact? What if they are a user AND a contact of multiple users! The answer, is to stop guessing. Give Kit everything it needs to handle every scanerio and let AI figure it out.

Oct 23rd — Dashboard improvements

While in San Diego, instead of coding, I just made notes of all the things I came up with. Today, I banged them ALL OUT.

• 👀 404, default, get started and dashboard open graph images
• 👀 Main website buttons link to the dashboard if logged in
• 👀 Users don't need to chat from the dashboard. Right?
• 👀 Ellipsis long user names in the dashboard header
• 👀 Put contact's relationship and frequency on the same line to make contact cards shorter on the dashboard
• 👀 Hide "clear availability" action during onboarding
• 👀 Hide header buttons during onboarding
• 👀 Swapped dashboard 👋 emoji to the far left
• 🐞 The word "Availability" in the dashboard's Get Started progress bar was busted
• 🐞 When an sms message contains an attachment, it might arrive AFTER the next message. Ensure attachments are in the last message (for now)

Oct 21st — Teaching Kit patience

• 🛠 Added a tool for running/testing crons
• 🛠 Fixed our tests to account for new reply queuing
• 🛠 Logs now prepend the date to the filename
• 🛠 Don't check the schedule if there's already a check schedule queued up
• 🛠 The database knows what time it is right NOW(), not the server.
• 🐞 Messages posted via the dashboard were being included twice when handed to our AI overlords

Oct 18th — Back to coding ~ Unique tasks

• 🛠 Tasks can now be unique so we don't check the schedule more times than necessary
• 🛠 Tasks can now be reschedled so we can wait before replying to a txt message
• 🛠 Updated worker/queue tests for new functionality and successfully ran it after tons of debugging

Oct 17th — Blogging

• ⭐️ New blog post: Blast From The Past
• ⭐️ New blog post: Doing Everything Wrong

Sep 30th — Immediate fixes

• 👀 Haden't looked at the homepage in a long time. Updated the CTA section.

Sep 29th — Testing Availability

• 👀 During onboarding, warn the user that kit works best with 3 or more contacts, but allow them to proceed anyway
• 🛠 Fixed mock data and create_schedule tools for availability update
• 🛠 Overhauled the error logging system for the 10th time
• 🐞 Weekly schedule creation wasn't considering upcoming calls
• 🐞 When a user accepted a contact's offer, the calls wasn't being added to the schedule
• 🐞 Was erroring out when receiving a message from a phone number we've never seen before
• 🐞 Only output json on error when hitting the api
• 🐞 When a contact confirms their timezone during onboarding, we need to include them in the schedule
• 🐞 The schedule checker couldnt tell the difference between a new contact and new availability being added

Sep 27th — Advanced Offers & Calendar Enhancements

• ⭐️ Kit is sooooo much smarter about the availability offered to contacts
  • max 3 dates
  • max 3 times per date (this means there will only ever be a max of 3 days with 3 times each per offer (9 slots total))
  • never times already offered
  • if previous offers exist, new dates/times offered should be outside of 1 hour before/after previously offered times
  • prefer times 8am-8pm in contact's timezone
  • prefer availability slots just before, or just after currently scheduled calls
  • prefer a day of the week/time same as any one of the last 3 successful calls
  • prefer variety, times should from each of: morning (8-12pm), afternoon (12-4pm), evening (4-8pm)
  • prefer dates not offered yet
• 👀 Override calendar default notifications so NO notification annoys users for Availability, and a 5 minute popup before calls
• 👀 Stuck a ☎️ emoji in calendar events which are a call to visually differentiate them from availability events
• 👀 When adjusting your availability, you don't know if there are times selected which are overflowing outside of the modal view. Now, the day is always green as long as there are times selected.
• 🛠 Major refactor of context, once again...
• 🐞 Availability was showing on the calendar, but not calls

Sep 26th — Availability UI

• ⭐️ Georgous new availability UI
• ⭐️ Set and clear your availability for the week
• ⭐️ Status labels for each contact in the contacts list
• ⭐️ Now you can see all the hard work Kit has been doing in the scheduling modal on the dashboard
• 👀 Calendar feed now shows availability AND calls with smart start/end times so it's not dozens of 20 minute availability events.
• 👀 Since the beginning, I thought it would be fun if the user didn't know who their upcoming call was with. I've been fighting for it, but its just confusing. Finally labeled each call with the contact's name.
• 🛠 Updated the onboarding flow to use the new availability UI

Sep 25th — Call Creation

• ⭐️ Let users schedule their own calls. Why not!?
• 🛠 Major refactor of call creation/updating. Now we create only 1 scheduled call at a time requiring a contact_id. Also can't edit/update the contact on a call (just cancel it if you want that).
• 🛠 When a user offered their availability to a contact, we called it an offer. But when a contact offeried theirs we called it a proposal!? That was dumb. Renamed all contact proposals to offers.
• 🛠 Dashboard now fetches the schedule instead of context!
• 🛠 Dashboard now fetches messages when the modal is opened.
• 🐞 Getting a schedule was very busted...

Sep 24th — Availability bug squashing

• 🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞 Had gpt-5-codex do a code review of everything I refactored yesterday. Uncovered and squashed 8 bugs.

Aug 3rd — Scheduling for everyone

I spent the entire day mapping out how scheduling calls will work. I've never liked scheduling calls with people because it's so complicated. So instead, I'm taking on scheduling calls between every human on the plan for all of eternity. Cool.

Decided to add the ability for contacts to propose slots back to the user as well. Just to add to the madness.

• 🐞 Consider unscheduled calls when requesting call blocks

Jul 29th — Documenting & Scheduling

• 🛠 Merged multiple methods into a single ai()->format_chat_request()

Jul 18-20th — Messaging Pipeline

• 🛠 Created robust testing framework, and then bailed on it... It's overkill for now.
• 🛠 Massive overhaul of Tools. No more calling them from both the AI class AND the Tools class. Someday AI will just call the tools directly.
• 🛠 Instead of trying to guide the LLM with my tool_response message, we'll include a system_message after the tool_response. WOW - this works so much better!

Jul 17-18th — Try, catch

A perfect example of how projects take longer than expected. It's not feature creep, it's just that I learn as I go, and I should do things right, especially now that I have AI to help me. Now that we have a queuing system, how do I know whether a task should be retried? Requires a complete overhaul of the entire system. But worth it.

URGENT: This worker is completely out of control - it's logging database errors twice per second and consuming resources! We need to stop it immediately.

Jul 13th — Get in line

• ⭐️ New Tasks class for queuing stuff up
• ⭐️ Created API endpoints for starting, stopping and listing workers
• ⭐️ Created worker.php V1, doesnt actually execute tasks yet

• 🚀 Fired up the dashboard. You can login and out.

Jun 3-15th — AI building AI

May 20th — Tooling up Kit

• 🛠 Mappout out allllll of Kit's tools. It's gunna be wilddly capable.

Total cost: $0.0000852
