v1.5.12026-01-01
Preview Stability Hardening
- SectionPreview now uses Babel for transformation and injects full Next.js/Framer/Lucide stubs with var to avoid redeclaration crashes.
- LivePreview and BuildFlowController stubs synchronized: added useRouter/navigation stubs, head/script/font stubs, CSS import no-ops, and synchronous script exposure to prevent race conditions.
- Added CODEX_TASK_PREVIEW_STABILITY.md to codify required stub coverage and error-handling rules for preview engines.
v1.5.02026-01-01
The Singularity Brand & Freemium Pivot
- Brand Unification: Established "The Definitive HatchIt" (Emerald Egg) as the primary logo and "The Architect" (Violet Cube) as the AI persona.
- Visual Identity: Updated all site headers, favicons, and social assets to match the new V3 "Hatching" aesthetic.
- Business Model: Pivoted to Freemium. Free users can build/preview; Paid users (Pro/Agency) can export/deploy.
- Engine Upgrade: Switched Builder Engine from Claude 3.5 Sonnet to GPT-5.1-Codex-Max (OpenAI).
- Infrastructure: Configured Local Sandbox for full Stripe Test Mode simulation (Sign Up -> Build -> Upgrade).
- Maintenance: Added <MaintenanceOverlay /> to lock production builder during the engine upgrade (bypassed in local dev).
v1.4.02026-01-01
The "Ultra Audit" & Marketing Launch
- Performance: Lazy-loaded @babel/standalone to reduce initial bundle size and improve TTI (Time to Interactive).
- Optimization: Refactored TheSubconscious to remove expensive mousemove event listeners, saving user battery life.
- Analytics: Integrated Google Analytics 4 (@next/third-parties) with IP-blocking logic to exclude the Founder's traffic.
- Security: Updated Permissions-Policy in next.config.ts to allow Microphone access (fixing Voice Input).
- Marketing: Created high-fidelity SVG assets for Reddit Ads (Desktop, Mobile, Short).
- Strategy: Finalized GOOGLE_ADS_READY.md and REDDIT_ORGANIC_POSTS.md for the Jan 1st launch.
