Add Personal Team scaffold (unified-team refactor, phase 1)#96

Foundation for unifying "personal" and "team" workspaces. Every user now has an auto-created Personal Team that owns repos, integrations, and BYOK config.

Migrates existing user data into the new Personal Team model, copying BYOK config and repo ownership for seamless transition to unified workspace structure.

A/B compare context strategies on a release#87

Side-by-side UI lets you see exactly how retrieval-augmented generation differs from static context, making the impact of semantic search visible during release authoring.

Team members can now see what each role (Owner, Admin, Member) is permitted to do, improving transparency around permissions and access levels.

Gated action tooltips: explain why a button is disabled#79

Members now see disabled buttons with hover tooltips explaining the required role, instead of silently hiding unavailable actions.

Expand gated-action tooltips across all team surfaces#80

Applies role-explanation tooltips to every role-gated button and link in the dashboard for consistent, transparent permission feedback.

Repo embeddings infrastructure (pgvector + OpenAI)#81

Lays indexing foundation for semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation. No user-facing changes in this phase.

Semantic Ask page with streaming synthesis and citations#83

Replaces `/chat` with a new intelligent search interface that retrieves semantically similar past entries and synthesizes answers with citations.

Retrieval-augmented release generation#84

Opt-in per-user flag that uses semantic search to fetch similar past entries for each new release, replacing the stale static Layer 2 historical summary.

Floating Ask widget on the dashboard#90

Persistent "Ask" bubble in the bottom-right corner of authenticated pages gives instant access to semantic search without navigating away.

Public profile redesign — heatmap, featured, grouped timeline#92

Second half of `/u/[username]` redesign adds contribution heatmap, featured release cards, and grouped timeline for a Twitter-worthy developer profile.

Register Profile tab in settings nav#93

Fixes missing Profile tab entry in settings navigation so users can access bio, Twitter handle, website, accent color, and pinned releases.

Reverts hard-coded brand violet to let the logo tile inherit parent text color for better visual consistency across the app.

Add public user guide at /guide#70

A new public guide page helps readers learn Yanib without signing up first. The 16-section guide also serves as in-app help with deep links to anchors from dashboard empty states and Help links.

Add Sharing tab to settings and reorganize account page#75

Sharing and embed tools (profile card, OG image, feed widget, badges, AI summary) now have their own dedicated tab in Account settings, making them easier to find and manage.

Fix GitHub App installation verification for webhook creation#69

Repos under owners whose App installation didn't cover them now correctly skip webhook creation instead of saving with a stale installationId and never receiving release events.

Fix AI JSON truncation crash and cache poisoning#71

Release generation no longer crashes when the AI response is incomplete or invalid, preventing cache corruption from incomplete JSON.

Fix release state downgrade from DRAFT to FAILED and add JSON repair#73

Releases with all fields populated (entries, summary, social, audience) no longer incorrectly show as FAILED. Added observability and JSON-repair salvage to recover from malformed AI responses.

Remove AI vendor names from public-facing surfaces#74

Marketing and help pages now refer to "AI" and "AI-powered" generically instead of naming Claude, Anthropic, or Haiku.

Add structured server logging to silent-failure surfaces#60

Implemented consistent logging patterns across webhooks (GitHub, GitLab), OAuth callbacks, billing checkout, and the release publish pipeline to improve debugging and monitoring of error conditions.

Fix invisible Yanib logo on dark-themed pages#59

The LogoIcon was inheriting text color from its parent container, causing it to become invisible on dark-themed pages like the public team digest. The logo now displays correctly with proper contrast.

Support self-hosted GitLab via Personal Access Token#54

Users can now connect to self-hosted GitLab instances using Personal Access Tokens, enabling multi-instance deployments.

Make provider-agnostic UI actually provider-agnostic#50

Fixed UI copy and widgets that hard-coded GitHub as the only git provider, allowing GitLab-only users to use the platform without confusing GitHub-specific messaging.

Code formatting#52

Prompt Google/email users to connect GitHub before repo actions#41

Google and email sign-ins now see a dedicated **Connect GitHub** prompt instead of silently failing when accessing repo-dependent features. GitHub connection is now properly gated behind a `hasGitHub` signal.

Index repo context for persistent AI awareness#42

Surface Widget Marketplace in high-discoverability locations#49

The Widget Marketplace is now reachable from five key entry points where users naturally look, making it unmissable without being intrusive.

Fix silent commit and tag truncation#44

`fetchCommitsBetweenTags` and `findPreviousTag` were silently dropping data beyond 100 commits or tags due to missing pagination. Now properly fetches all commits and tags, with warnings when limits are exceeded.

Add persistent AI usage logging#43

Every AI call now writes to a persistent `AIUsage` table (in addition to the in-memory ring buffer), enabling measurement of cost per task, user, and over time, plus cache hit rate analysis.
