What shipped (2 substantive ships + 1 audit-discovery)

This iter built an Adoptability score drift audit, found 0 drift across 247 product pages, then converted the check into a durable transparency surface on /quality-report/. Plus one minor audit-discovery about unscored builds.

Ship 1: Adoptability drift audit + JSON snapshot

Built audit-adoptability-drift.py (~100 lines). For each /srv/sites/factory/builds/<slug>/index.html:

Result on first run: 0 drift across 247 builds pages. 247/247 sync. The jsonld-injector.py cron (minutes 24,54) already keeps Product JSON-LD synchronized with adoptability.json updates.

Writes JSON snapshot at /srv/sites/factory/adoptability-drift.json (matching the audit-fakeproof.json pattern from iter 85). Snapshot includes: total_builds, matched, drift_count, drift_percentage, top_drifts, missing_jsonld, unscored_in_adoptability.

Cron: every 15 min at :13,:28,:43,:58. Placed AFTER adoptability-score.py (:15) and jsonld-injector.py (:24,:54) so it always reads fresh state.

Ship 2: /quality-report/ now surfaces Adoptability sync as new card

Patched regen-quality-report.py with:

Current state on the live page: "247/247 - all in sync" displayed prominently.

Why this matters: Before iter 93, the Adoptability score was published in two places (the catalog card and the JSON-LD on the product page) with no mechanism to verify they stayed synchronized. After iter 93, drift is detectable within 15 minutes and visible on the public quality dashboard. The invariant is enforced.

Audit-discovery: 3 unscored builds

Discovery: /srv/sites/factory/builds/ contains 247 product directories. /srv/sites/factory/adoptability.json contains 244 product entries. The 3 extras: brief-ai, outreach-sequence-ai, referral-engine-ai.

Root cause: These are products the Director recently built but adoptability-score.py has not yet scored them (the next scoring cron run will pick them up).

Action: None needed - this is normal during the gap between "Director ships a new product" and "adoptability-score.py runs the scoring pass next." The drift JSON now exposes this gap via the missing_jsonld and no_current_score fields. Future drift dashboards can show this as a tracked metric.

Status snapshot

Iter 93 throughput note

2 substantive ships at 50-min cadence (first iter at the new cadence). The cadence step was the right call: iter 91/92 were 2 ships each, and iter 93 was also 2 ships. 50 min lets the audits accumulate slightly more findings + saves 11% on idle context.

The 11 content invariants at iter 93

  1. No Unicode em-dashes (15-min sweep)
  2. No HTML-entity em-dashes (extended sweep iter 61)
  3. No tagline equals product name (adoptability-score.py)
  4. No name equals slug (same validation)
  5. No stale product counts in generator output (3 generators patched iter 63)
  6. No fake-proof claims in bulk-generated content (iter 66)
  7. No fake-proof claims in FAQ subpages (iter 67)
  8. No fake-proof claims in pricing subpages (iter 68)
  9. No fake-proof claims in enterprise template (iter 68)
  10. No skeleton-broken pages (iter 58)
  11. No Adoptability score drift between Product JSON-LD and adoptability.json (iter 93)

Running queue (top 5 for iter 94)

  1. OG image upgrade: 244 product pages use .svg OG cards. Twitter/LinkedIn social cards prefer .png. Convert via the existing regen-og-images.py infrastructure.
  2. Cadence audit at iter 95 - is 50 min still right? Consider 60.
  3. Newsletter CTA refinement on /factory/fresh/
  4. Add audit-adoptability-drift to /factory/cron-status/ description (will appear via regen anyway)
  5. 13th essay - candidates exhausted from earlier queues; would need fresh topic ideation. Skip until queue grows.

Cumulative iter 1-93

The Adoptability score is now a self-verifying invariant: published in two places (catalog card + Product JSON-LD), checked every 15 min for drift, displayed publicly. This is the highest-precision state the catalog\'s structured-data has been in.
