claude 18d5f5bfc0 Make Piggy part of the product rather than a guest in it
CI / verify (push) Successful in 7m10s
CI / publish (push) Has been skipped
Piggy arrived as a chat panel bolted onto a CRM and then grew a workspace
around it. The layout was already right — the audit found the approval card
to be the best-designed object in the repo, and the account page's empty
panels less finished than anything in the workspace. What was wrong was
vocabulary: nobody had written the small things down, so both halves kept
inventing them.

Piggy was drawn with five different marks — a pig in the dock, a sparkle in
the sidebar and again on the model picker, a speech bubble on the Ask
buttons, and a stock robot glyph on every assistant message, which is the
one people look at most. There is now one mark. The composer, which is the
first control in the product since sign-in lands on /piggy, was the only
un-adapted shadcn field left: 6px radius against a 12px Send button it sat
8px from. A stat tile had been reinvented six times at three numeral scales,
and the same uppercase micro-label existed in five variants, two of them one
tab apart in the same rail. There were 63 hand-written font sizes: not a
scale, sixty-three opinions.

Underneath that, the focus ring was invisible. The global rule used
ring-accent, which Tailwind deliberately aliases onto the hover tint, so the
ring measured 1.01:1 against the light canvas — no visible focus indicator
anywhere in the product, for any accent, in either theme. It is ring-brand
now and measures 17:1. The warning, positive and info tones were darkened
until each clears 4.5:1 on a card, on inset and on its own chip, and the
light canvas moved to 98% so a card lifts without leaning on its shadow.

The mobile work is the part worth reading. A landscape phone gave the
transcript 28% of the viewport and a keyboard-up phone 16%, against a 45%
floor — and the fixed tab bar painted over the composer, covering the safety
sentence and half the Send button, because two source comments asserted the
bar stood down on short viewports and it never had. Both fixed and measured
by hit-testing rather than by screenshot. The composer itself was 64px tall
for a blank second line nobody typed, because the auto-resize effect sizes
to scrollHeight and scrollHeight counts rows — a CSS height could not win
against an inline style, so the attribute was the honest lever.

Verified across both themes driven through the app's own control: no
horizontal overflow on 15 routes at four viewports, 672 stat values that fit,
297 labels at exactly 11px/500, Escape returning focus to its opener rather
than the body on every overlay, and a rejected write no longer reporting
"Succeeded" with a green check.

claude 99d165b5e5 Rebuild Piggy's interface, and give the demo book a business to describe
CI / verify (push) Successful in 4m57s
CI / publish (push) Has been skipped
Piggy answered in raw markdown, threw away every tool result it streamed,
and fought the reader's scroll on every token. The three surfaces that
made it worth having — what it read, how it reasoned, what it cost — were
all on the wire and none of them reached the screen.

The transcript is now composed of five parts under components/piggy:
answers render through streamdown, the container sticks to the bottom
without pinning the reader there, tool steps say what they read and link
to the record, and each turn carries its model and token count. Three
lifecycle bugs went with them: Stop left a permanent spinner, a truncated
stream was indistinguishable from thinking, and a failed send destroyed
the message it failed to send.

Underneath, the inference path grew timeouts, jittered retries on 429 and
5xx, tolerance of the malformed frames a 30B model emits, and an
agent_runs row per turn so chat spend is observable. The system prompt now
states that a field ending in Cents is cents — without it nemotron renders
costPerGpuHourCents: 189 as "$189 per GPU-hour", which is a 100x error on
the most scrutinised number in the room.

The demo book was arithmetically incoherent: every deal's value
contradicted its own allocation revenue by up to 3.6x, nothing had ever
closed, no customer had any paper, and the marketplace was empty. Deal
value is now derived from the allocation, the book clears 5.3% across five
blocks with one deliberately underwater, and the renewal, compliance and
agent-provenance machinery finally has rows to act on. A --clear that
deleted every obligation, SLA term and capacity request in the database
regardless of origin is scoped to the demo's own ids.

Around that: accounts have a detail page, ⌘K searches the book, Settings
can mint the API keys it always claimed to, and deploy.sh actually ships
the agent instead of silently skipping its compose profile.
