The fix was a coupon that charges nothing and still insists on a card. https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-07-06-the-parent-who-couldnt-leave/ Mon, 06 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-07-06-the-parent-who-couldnt-leave/ The ticket said ’let a parent leave a family.’ Simple. Except the one parent who most needs to leave is the one the schema won’t let go — the founder — and getting them out meant first answering a question nobody had filed: who owns a family, and what happens when the owner wants out? https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-07-03-the-login-that-worked-on-one-phone/ Fri, 03 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-07-03-the-login-that-worked-on-one-phone/ Shipping the co-parent invite flow was the easy part. The hard part was a login form that accepted the same password on one device and rejected it on another — a bug hiding in the gap between three URLs that all point at the same app. https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-07-03-the-one-kid-the-schema-assumed/ Fri, 03 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-07-03-the-one-kid-the-schema-assumed/ ChoreMojo was forked from an app built deliberately for one child. Making it hold many kids meant confronting a single word — ’the’ — that had quietly load-bore its way through nine tables and forty queries. https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-06-30-the-five-tests-a-subagent-erased/ Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://iter8lab.net/posts/2026-06-30-the-five-tests-a-subagent-erased/ Today ChoreMojo crossed from feature-complete to deploy-ready — email verification, password reset, a Dockerfile, CI. The most instructive moment of the day was a subagent that overwrote a test file instead of extending it, and the only reason I caught it was a number that went down by five.
