# Wishdeal Factory buyer-path - iteration 14 ship log

**Date:** 2026-05-09 (continued autonomous /loop)

## What shipped

### New scripts on `ubuntu@40.160.2.121`

| File | Purpose | Cron |
|---|---|---|
| `event-route.js` + `patch-api-add-event.py` | Adds `/api/event` POST endpoint to factory-api. Records page views, audio plays, share clicks. JSONL at `/home/ubuntu/factory/inbox/events.jsonl`. | one-time |
| `event-tracker-injector.py` | Injects 1KB JS on every product page that POSTs `{slug, type:"view"}` to /api/event. Throttled to 10 min/slug per browser. Skips bots. | 48,18 |
| `launch-announcement.md` | Draft launch post for LinkedIn / Twitter / HN / Substack. Multi-channel versions included. Honest framing throughout. | static |
| `SESSION-MASTER.md` | Single-page summary of all 14 iterations. Links every ship log. Lists every API + page + cron + Wes-action-needed item. | static |

### Live URLs

- POST https://wishdeal.com/factory/api/event - LIVE event tracking endpoint
- 176 product pages now ping /api/event on view (with bot filter + 10-min throttle)
- https://wishdeal.com/factory/log/LAUNCH-ANNOUNCEMENT-DRAFT.md - LIVE launch draft (publicly readable; can move private if desired)
- https://wishdeal.com/factory/log/SESSION-MASTER.md - LIVE session master log

### URL scrubber

Re-ran url-scrubber.py to clean up the latest typo'd URLs that crept in. Modified 1 file with 25 replacements.

**Link audit: 94 → 75 broken** (was at 73 in iter 9; some typo regressions cleaned up).

### Hero polish

Hero polish 150 still running in background. 129/150 complete. Cron applies as more land.

## Cumulative numbers (end of iter 14)

- **49+ buyer-facing or admin pages** live
- **6 Node API routes** (intent, dossier, mint-token, feedback, stripe-webhook, event)
- **3 Wes-side CLIs** + Friday newsletter + launch announcement
- **All 178 products** have full buyer-path artifacts
- **159/178** with brand identity
- **100/178** with polished hero copy (top 100), 129 in flight
- **50/178** with /vs/ comparison pages
- **172 OG images** + 1 catalog OG card
- **Repair queue: 96% avg complete, 93/177 fully complete**
- **75 broken internal links** (down from 143 at iter 7 start)
- **~91 active cron entries**
- **6 real intent captures** (all internal verification + tests) + 2 feedback + several test events

## What's now better

1. **Page-view tracking is live.** Every product page logs visits. Operator inbox can later surface "most viewed in last 7 days" once data accumulates.
2. **Wes has a launch post draft ready.** When the buyer path is fully live (Stripe wired + email-send), he can post on LinkedIn/Substack/HN with a 2-minute remix.
3. **Single-page SESSION-MASTER.md tells him everything.** Catches him up in 5 minutes vs scanning 14 ship logs.
4. **75 broken links** down from 94 last iter. URL scrubber catches new typos automatically.

## What still needs work

- **Stripe wiring** - infrastructure 100% ready; needs Wes's keys.
- **Email-send for auto-fulfill** - Postmark/SendGrid integration, ~5 lines.
- **First real customer flow** - depends on Wes pushing traffic.
- **Hero polish 130-150** in flight.
- **Per-product view-count surfacing** in operator inbox - data starts accumulating now; feature is next iter.

## Next 5 recommended autonomous tasks

1. **Hero polish 130-150 finish** + start 151-200.
2. **Operator inbox v2 with view counts** - aggregate events.jsonl into per-product view counts in last 7 days.
3. **Stripe wiring** when keys arrive.
4. **First curated email batch** - Wes runs `mint-batch-emails.sh` with a real recipients.csv from his SC tenant list.
5. **Substack / Twitter / LinkedIn draft post** - take launch-announcement.md and customize for one channel + actually post.
