For bun run check, let's run the format first so that it doesn't break the turbo cache.
Done. check and check:all now run bun run format first so any reformat happens before turbo's lint/tsc, keeping the cache valid.
Your task
First, run git status, git diff, and git log --oneline -10 to understand the current state.
Then add and commit all modified files with a descriptive message. Break the changes into multiple commits if appropriate. If there are untracked files, ask if they should be added or added to the appropriate .gitignore file. The user may also want to take over at this point, so provide an abort option as well. Always check changes for unnecessary debugging statements or logging that might have been accidentally included. Prompt the user if you find any, and offer to remove each one by one. Do not use interactive git staging (git add -p) as it does not work.
I have a good picture. Three logical changes:
- Dep bumps: turbo 2.9.6→2.9.7, typescript-eslint 8.58.2→8.59.1, jose 6.2.2→6.2.3 (touches
package.json,packages/config/package.json,testing/e2e/package.json,turbo.json,bun.lock) - Script reordering:
check/check:allrunbun run formatbefore turbo (inpackage.json) - Format drift on the two assessments files (pure reflows, no debug code)
The diffs are clean — no stray debug statements or console.logs. Plan: split into two commits — (A) dep bumps + the format drift they would have surfaced, and (B) the check script reordering. Since both touch package.json, I'll temporarily revert the scripts change to stage A cleanly, then restore it for B.
Now restore the script reordering and commit it separately.
Both commits landed clean:
d86421b9— Bump turbo, typescript-eslint, and jose85f8b679— Run format before turbo lint/tsc in check scripts
Working tree is clean. Branch is 2 ahead of origin/main (not pushed).
Your task
Pull new page captures from the production database and clean them up for use as course readings. Follow this process strictly.
Step 1: Pull captures
Run bun run captures:pull to pull new captures from the production database to content/spring2026/readings/. Note which files are new.
Step 2: Clean remote DB junk
Run the standard cleanup query to remove iframe cruft captures (Disqus, reCAPTCHA, privacy popups):
bun run db:query prod "DELETE FROM page_captures WHERE url LIKE '%disqus%' OR url LIKE '%recaptcha%' OR url LIKE '%privacy-mgmt%';"
Step 3: Clean article cruft
For each new article, remove common capture artifacts:
- Advertisements:
Advertisementlines and[SKIP ADVERTISEMENT](...)links - Image credits:
Credit...lines (NYT image attribution) - Bylines/bios: Author name, bio paragraphs that duplicate frontmatter info
- Datelines: Date stamps like "March 12, 2026, 8 AM ET" (the date is in frontmatter)
- Narration credits:
Read by.../Narration produced by.../Engineered by...blocks at article end - Newsletter boilerplate: "You're reading the X newsletter..." subscription cruft
- Internal publication links:
[Read: ...]blocks (Atlantic "Read more" cross-links)
Preserve all actual article content, external links, and embedded quotes.
Step 4: Restore section breaks
Open the original article URL and compare with the captured MDX. Where the original article has visual section transitions (extra spacing between sections, decorative dividers, typographic ornaments), add --- in the MDX on its own line with blank lines above and below.
Most publications (Atlantic, NYT, New Yorker) encode section breaks as CSS spacing only, which is lost during the HTML-to-Markdown conversion. These need to be restored manually by comparing with the original article.
Step 5: Preserve media embeds
If the article has an associated video or podcast (e.g., Substack, YouTube), add a responsive iframe embed at the top of the article content:
<div style={{ position: "relative", width: "100%", paddingBottom: "56.25%", marginBottom: "2rem" }}>
<iframe
src="EMBED_URL"
style={{ position: "absolute", top: 0, left: 0, width: "100%", height: "100%", border: "none" }}
allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture"
allowFullScreen
/>
</div>
Step 6: Add sidenotes
Review each article for opportunities to add 2-4 sidenotes connecting the article content to course themes. The sidenotes should help students relate what they're reading to their hands-on experience with AI in the course.
Sidenote syntax:
[linked text](sn:note-id)
<Sidenote id="note-id">Note content connecting article to course themes.</Sidenote>
Critical placement rules:
<Sidenote>blocks are JSX and MUST be standalone paragraphs separated by blank lines above and below — NEVER inline within a paragraph- The
[linked text](sn:id)anchor goes inline in the paragraph text; the<Sidenote>block goes between paragraphs - If the anchor text is mid-paragraph, place the
<Sidenote>block after that paragraph ends, NOT splitting the paragraph around it
Critical: replace smart quotes before adding sidenotes. Web captures contain curly/smart quotes (U+201C, U+201D, U+2018, U+2019) that break MDX JSX parsing. Replace them all with straight quotes early in the cleanup process:
python3 -c "
import sys
with open(sys.argv[1], 'r') as f: text = f.read()
text = text.replace('\u201c', '\"').replace('\u201d', '\"').replace('\u2018', \"'\").replace('\u2019', \"'\")
with open(sys.argv[1], 'w') as f: f.write(text)
" FILE.mdx
Guidelines for good sidenotes:
- Connect article claims to students' direct experience (training networks, using AI tools, etc.)
- Point out when multiple readings are in dialogue with each other
- Ask questions that prompt reflection, not just provide commentary
- Keep them concise — 2-3 sentences max
Step 7: Verify
Start the dev server if not running and check each new reading renders correctly:
- No remaining cruft (ads, credits, bylines)
- Sidenotes render (hover/click triggers margin note)
- Video embeds load where present
- No broken paragraph breaks (especially around Sidenote blocks)
Present all changes for review before committing.
4 new captures. Cleaning DB cruft, then reviewing each.
Lots of cruft to clean from the NYT piece. I see the bolded section starts (**If left to its own devices,**, **Since its early years, OpenAI**, etc.) which signal NYT visual section breaks. Let me also check the source for any video/audio embed.
I'll make targeted edits. First, removing the byline/credit cruft at the top:
Remove the inline newsletter signup:
Remove the trailing advertisement block:
Now restoring section breaks. The piece has 6 NYT-style bolded section starts:
Now adding 3 sidenotes connecting article claims to course experience:
I just introduced a typo in a URL — fixing:
Now the third sidenote — on the Anthropic finding about junior engineers losing comprehension:
Quick check that the file still looks good around the edited sections:
File 1 done — 6 section breaks restored, 3 sidenotes placed. Moving to the Amodei essay:
Looking at it: the capture duplicates footnotes — both inline expansions in the body AND a Footnotes section at the end. I'll drop the redundant bottom section and clean the duplicate title header.
Now drop the bottom Footnotes section (kept inline expansions in the body which already render the same content):
Now sidenotes. Let me find the key passages:
I placed the Sidenote in the middle of a bulleted list — that'll break list continuity. Moving it to after the list ends:
One more sidenote — on the "country of geniuses" thought experiment. Let me find a good spot:
Verifying placement of all 4 sidenotes and that the bullet list still ends cleanly:
Amodei essay done. Moving to file 3:
Cleaning the Atlantic cross-reading links:
Now 3 sidenotes:
File 3 done. Moving to file 4:
This Atlantic piece is clean — no cruft to remove. Adding 3 sidenotes:
All four files cleaned and sidenoted. Now verify they render in dev:
The reading routes require auth. Doing static validation instead — verifying no leftover smart quotes, all sidenote IDs paired, and frontmatter intact:
All sidenote IDs pair correctly and no smart quotes remain. Let me check the dev log for any MDX compilation errors:
All four readings are processed and ready for review. Here's the summary:
Pulled & cleaned:
-
Sun (NYT) — "Silicon Valley Is Bracing for a Permanent Underclass" — removed byline/credit/dateline/listen-stub/newsletter-signup/ad blocks; restored 6 NYT-style section breaks (the bolded section starts); 3 sidenotes (
claude-code-students,amodei-essay-companioncross-linking to the Amodei essay also in this batch,junior-skill-decay). -
Amodei — "The Adolescence of Technology" (~20k words) — removed the redundant duplicate-title block and the bottom Footnotes section (the body already had inline footnote expansions covering the same content); subtitle italicized; 4 sidenotes (
country-of-geniuses,growing-not-building,character-training,underclass-companioncross-linking to Sun). -
Noti-Victor & Tang (Atlantic) — "The Secret Weapon Against AI Dominance" — removed two Atlantic "Read more" cross-links; 3 sidenotes (
copyright-as-leverage,sora-collapse,human-in-the-loop). -
Karma (Atlantic) — "Maybe AI Isn't a Bubble After All" — was already clean; 3 sidenotes (
metr-flip,rtwv-decomposition,burden-of-proofcross-linking to Sun and Amodei).
Validation: smart quotes replaced (0 remaining in any file); all 13 sidenote anchors paired with their 13 <Sidenote> blocks; no errors in dev log; api indexed all 4 files cleanly. WebFetch couldn't reach the source URLs (NYT/Atlantic auth-walled), so section-break restoration was inferred from in-prose markers — the Sun piece had clear bolded section starts; the others read as continuous prose so I left them alone.
DB cleanup query ran (DELETE 0 — no junk captures this round). The reading routes require auth in dev so I couldn't do a live render check, but compilation is implied clean by the absence of error output.
Want to review the files yourself before I commit?
Your task
First, run git status, git diff, and git log --oneline -10 to understand the current state.

If there are untracked files, ask if they should be added or added to the appropriate .gitignore file. The user may also want to take over at this point, so provide an abort option as well. Always check changes for unnecessary debugging statements or logging that might have been accidentally included. Prompt the user if you find any, and offer to remove each one by one. Do not use interactive git staging (git add -p) as it does not work.
Adding the four new readings:
Committed as 42fba630. Branch is now 1 ahead of origin/main (the earlier two commits from this session were already pushed). Working tree clean.
Build the mail container is failing. Can you investigate?
Same problem when I try to run bun deploy:dev.

Two distinct changes. I'll split them:
- Version bump 2026.4.39 → 2026.5.0 across all workspaces (likely from the aborted
bun deploy:devrun) - The build fix to strip stale
node_modulesfrom the prune output (k8s/build.sh + scripts/deploy.ts)
No debug statements in either set.
Both commits landed:
e68b0062— Bump version to 2026.5.0cac3c40f— Strip stale node_modules from turbo prune output
Working tree clean, branch 2 ahead of origin.
