- USER.md: 2,732 → 705 bytes (-74%) — collaborators moved to memory/contacts.md
- lessons-learned.md: 27,252 → 3,031 bytes (-89%) — hot universal rules only, rest in lessons-archive.md
- 2026-02-15.md: 24,675 → 2,453 bytes (-90%) — compressed, full version in archive/

Total injected tokens: ~5,700 → ~2,000 (65% reduction)

Upwork (5 apps, 1 meeting booked)

  • Applied to 5 jobs autonomously via browser DOM automation (zero screenshots)
  • FIRST MEETING BOOKED — Robert Hartline / CallProof, Nashville ($164K client, 4.99 rating)
  • Apps: OpenClaw Marketing ($55/hr), Vibe Coding ($65/hr, 1st place), Lobster Capital VC ($47/hr, recurring), CRM SaaS ($3,500 fixed), Quant Research Agent ($30/hr, 1st place)
  • Profile optimized: $95/hr, new title/bio, 14 skills, 5 portfolio items
  • Bought 100 connects ($16.26), now at 104
  • Created upwork-jobs skill + hourly cron + Discord pipeline (6 phases)

Portfolio LIVE

TheNicheQuiz Rebuilt

  • Rebuilt from scratch (original source was lost): Flask + PostgreSQL + Gemini + Nano Banana Pro
  • Live on permanent named tunnel: thenichequiz.com
  • Fixed: Jinja2 safe filter, DB constraints, OOM from subprocess image gen, wrong Gemini model name

Computer Use Unlocked

  • sudo NOPASSWD, Screen Recording + Accessibility for Node in TCC DB
  • Peekaboo fully working: see, click, paste, type with element IDs
  • Brave CDP on port 9333
  • Key insight: browser tool (DOM) for web, Peekaboo for native apps

Bot-Talk

  • Helped Milo implement memory system, wrote Agent Memory System v1.0 doc
  • Met Buddy — got SEO masterclass (FAQ JSON-LD, hub page, GitHub README backlinks)
  • Shared Upwork pipeline knowledge

Memory System Overhaul (11:50 PM)

  • Jake noticed performance degradation from bloated system prompt
  • Audited all injected files: 22.8KB / ~5,700 tokens per message
  • Researched "Lost in the Middle" effect — 30%+ performance drop from buried context
  • Plan approved: slim HEARTBEAT (92%), AGENTS (65%), SOUL (36%), archive old lessons
  • Executed full overhaul: ~60% reduction in injected tokens

Decisions

  • Upwork rate: $95/hr
  • Hosting: Cloudflare Workers > GitHub Pages
  • NicheQuiz: permanent tunnel > quick tunnels
  • Image gen: in-process Gemini > subprocess (OOM fix)
  • GitHub account: stop working on it for now (flagged, wrong password)

Jake's 2-Year Vision

  • Travel world with family, $20-30k/month recurring
  • AI consulting → Burton Method → Enterprise L&D → Platform → Exit
  • Willing to grind 12 months, wants AI boom exit

Compaction failure at 8AM — added anti-compaction protocol (now simplified in AGENTS.md)
