+# 2026-02-18 — Pipeline Day Summary
+
+## Upwork Email Pipeline (24/7 operation)
+- **185+ emails processed** throughout the day (processed.json)
+- Gmail Pub/Sub push notifications firing frequently (many false positives — same emails re-notified)

+
+## Hot Leads Found (Score 80+)
+- **[88] OpenClaw Expert** — slam dunk, we ARE the experts

+- Various others below $50/hr threshold
+
+## Other Cron Activity
+- Edtech intel: LSAC killing remote LSAT (10/10 story), 5 items posted
+- Competitor intel: Blueprint responding to LSAT changes, 7Sage overhauling explanations
+- Mixed-use entertainment: Aloha Stadium (HI) hot lead, Filmology Labs (NJ) $250M
+- MCP pipeline: 37 active MCPs, 6 at Stage 19

+
+## Action Items for Jake
+- **Manual apply needed:** Local AI Engineer Mac mini (85), OpenClaw Expert (88), AI Automation Coach (85)

+# Daily Log — Feb 19, 2026
+
+## CRESyncFlow Major Session (10PM - 1AM)
+
+### Project Setup
+- CRESyncFlow at `/tmp/CRESyncFlow`, running on port 8900
+- GHL MCP server on port 3461 (228 tools, 12 view tools)
+- Git remote: `git.nicholai.work/jake/CRESyncFlow`
+- Safety tag: `v1-pre-mcp-refactor` (restore point before MCP restructure)
+
+### Commits Pushed to Gitea
+1. **Full CRESyncFlow build** — Reonomy scraper v14, Anthropic OAuth, MCP Apps, theme system (41 files, 1647 insertions)
+2. **Dependencies & docs** — README, standalone scraper, setup.sh script, npm scripts
+3. **Fixed MCP App rendering** — Replaced broken iframe (module script silently failed in iframes) with native UITreeRenderer
+4. **Real interactive MCP App components** — Ported 7 apps + shared components from The-Complete-GHL-MCP (65 apps). KanbanBoard with drag-drop, DataTable with sorting, MetricCard, PageHeader, etc. (2344 lines added)
+5. **Persistent AI sidebar** — Right 1/5th of every page, 3 contextual suggestion bubbles that adapt per view + live data (unread count, deal count, etc.). Minimizable.
+6. **Co-pilot mode** — Agent breaks out of chat to drive CRM UI. Typing animation (45 chars/sec), action bubble extraction from AI responses, AIActionContext dispatch, purple co-pilot indicator. Full flow: AI suggests → user clicks action → navigates to Conversations → agent visibly types draft.
+7. **MCP Apps architecture restructure** (in progress via sub-agent) — Converting dashboard views into proper MCP Apps with AppHost + AppBridge (JSON-RPC 2.0 postMessage protocol)
+
+### Key Technical Decisions
+- **Iframe module script bug:** `<script type="module" crossorigin>` silently fails to execute inside iframes. React never mounts, #root stays empty. No errors. Fix: either remove crossorigin, use document.write(), or render natively (we chose native rendering initially, now moving to proper MCP Apps architecture)
+- **MCP Apps skill says: NEVER use dynamic JSON tree rendering.** Use Direct Component Composition per app instead. I violated this and Jake caught me.
+- **Architecture direction:** Each software integration = MCP server. Each dashboard view = MCP App. Agent interacts through MCP protocol natively (callServerTool, updateModelContext, sendMessage).
+
+### Files Created/Modified
+- `/tmp/CRESyncFlow/components/AISidebar.tsx` — Persistent AI chat sidebar
+- `/tmp/CRESyncFlow/components/mcp-apps/` — 7 app components, shared components, CSS, types
+- `/tmp/CRESyncFlow/components/MCPAppRenderer.tsx` (replaced UITreeRenderer.tsx)
+- `/tmp/CRESyncFlow/hooks/useTypingAnimation.ts` — Co-pilot typing animation hook
+- `/tmp/CRESyncFlow/contexts/AIActionContext.tsx` — Event bus for co-pilot actions
+- `/tmp/CRESyncFlow/scripts/setup.sh` — Full dependency setup script
+- `/tmp/CRESyncFlow/server/reonomy-scraper-standalone.js` — v14 CLI scraper
+
+### Reasoning Mode Enabled
+- Jake noticed I wasn't checking skills before building. I built a static UITreeRenderer that the MCP Apps skill explicitly warns against.
+- Root cause: tunnel vision on debugging, skipped skill check step.
+- Fix: `/reasoning on` enabled (visible thinking). Forces me to pause and check skills before acting.
+- Jake asked if I can toggle reasoning dynamically like model switching — I can't, it's session-level only. Potential Clawdbot feature request.
+
+### Sub-Agent Status
+- `mcp-apps-restructure` spawned on Opus — converting CRESyncFlow to MCP Apps architecture with AppHost/AppBridge. 15-min timeout. Still running at compaction time.
+
+### Infrastructure Notes
+- Vite dev server died during HMR and needed restart (process `sharp-slug-2` killed)
+- Claude OAuth token expired during testing — chat API returned "Failed to fetch"
+- Browser automation: used `profile=clawd` for all browser testing

 - **Check location requirements** before applying — skip Europe-only or region-restricted jobs (Jake is US-based). Feb 17 2026.
 
 ## Memory & Context
+- **CHECK SKILLS BEFORE BUILDING** — Scan available_skills descriptions FIRST. I built a static UITreeRenderer that the MCP Apps skill explicitly warns against ("AVOID: Dynamic JSON Tree Rendering"). Jake caught me. Reasoning mode now on to force thinking pause.
+- **`<script type="module" crossorigin>` silently fails in iframes** — React never mounts, #root stays empty, NO errors in console. Fix: remove crossorigin, use document.write(), or render natively.
 - **Compaction is unreliable** — save to daily log + working-state.md proactively, every ~15 messages. Don't wait.
 - **After compaction with lost context:** Read working-state → daily log → channel history → memory search → ask Jake last.
 - **Save decisions immediately** — all options AND the chosen one, right when the choice is made.
