The ideation loop. A new background process gives the codebase a way to improve itself between sessions. Each tick discovers the highest-severity unresolved problem, grounds it in the project's own knowledge via retrieval, generates three distinct solution options, implements the strongest one while keeping the test suite green, logs an entry, and writes a handoff so the next session can pick up cleanly.
Scaffold engine, modularized. The scaffold! / code! feature — which generates working apps in a sandboxed environment — had grown into a single large file. It was broken apart into focused, individually-tested modules: the sandbox runner, the AI client, config-repair logic, and the system prompts each now live on their own with their own tests. Room-knowledge and voice/WebRTC socket handlers were extracted into dedicated handler files in the same pass, and a dead legacy controller was deleted.
Real scaffold token usage. Scaffold runs now report their true token consumption the same way a normal chat reply does, so the cost of generating an app shows up in the usage meter instead of being invisible.
Why it matters
The ideation loop is a compounding investment — small, safe improvements accumulate without a human in the loop for every one. The scaffold refactor is the unglamorous work that keeps a fast-moving feature maintainable: smaller files, real tests, and honest token accounting mean the next change is easier and the next bug is easier to find.
