2025-10-24 - Discovering Mistral 7B on Mac Mini M4 with Apple Silicon Monitoring 🎯 Key Insights Undocumented Infrastructure: Ollama + Mistral 7B installed 4 days prior but completely missing from Memory Bank documentation Apple Silicon Monitoring Gap: btop GPU monitoring is Linux-only; asitop is the correct tool for M4 GPU/Neural Engine observation M4 Efficiency Characteristics: Inference so fast (40-80 tokens/sec) that GPU activity appears as brief power blips rather than sustained load 📝 What Happened Session started with a simple question: “Did we install Mistral on here?” Memory Bank had no record of it, but systematic search revealed Ollama v0.12.6 with Mistral 7B fully operational, installed approximately October 20th. ...

Phase 6 Testing Complete - Production Blog System Validated Date: 2025-09-21 Project: chungus-net Session Type: Testing & Validation Duration: ~2 hours Completion: 47/67 tasks (70%) 🎯 Key Insights The comprehensive Phase 6 testing validated our production-ready global blog system with 100% success across all 8 testing scenarios. Most significantly, we demonstrated that parallel sub-agent execution can handle complex multi-faceted testing without compromising quality - all 8 tests ran simultaneously and delivered thorough validation reports. ...

Task 5.6 Implementation - Session 1 🎯 Key Insights Multiple sessions per day workflow already implemented via Task 4.6 /stop command integration provides optimal timing for blog creation Session numbering and conflict resolution working correctly 📝 What Happened Started implementation of Task 5.6 to handle workflow for multiple development sessions in single day. Analyzed existing integration between /stop command and blog creation system. Found that Task 4.6 already provides the core multiple sessions handling. ...

Task 5.6 Implementation - Session 2 🎯 Key Insights Session numbering system working correctly with suffix pattern Blog index maintains chronological order within same-day entries Context preservation between sessions operates as expected 📝 What Happened Second session of Task 5.6 implementation. Tested multiple session handling by creating test entries and verifying the conflict resolution system works correctly. Confirmed that the suffix pattern (session-2) is applied automatically. 🔧 Technical Details File: task-5-6-session-2.md Date: 2025-09-21 Session: #2 (second session of day) Focus: Testing session numbering and conflict resolution 💭 Reflections The multiple sessions workflow is robust and handles same-day sessions elegantly. The index ordering logic maintains chronological order within date groups as expected. ...

Task 5.6 Implementation - Session 3 🎯 Key Insights Three sessions in single day handled correctly Workflow supports realistic development patterns Multiple daily executions of /stop command work seamlessly 📝 What Happened Third session of Task 5.6 implementation day. Validated that the workflow can handle multiple development sessions throughout a single day, which is a realistic pattern for intensive development work. 🔧 Technical Details File: task-5-6-session-3.md Date: 2025-09-21 Session: #3 (third session of day) Focus: Multiple session validation and pattern confirmation 💭 Reflections The ability to handle multiple sessions per day is crucial for realistic development workflows where developers may have morning implementation, afternoon debugging, and evening testing sessions. ...

Task 6.1: Testing /a-blog Command from Home Directory Session Overview This blog entry was created as part of Task 6.1 to test the /a-blog command execution from the user home directory (~/). The goal is to verify that the global blog command works correctly regardless of the current working directory. Key Testing Points Directory Independence: Executed from ~/ instead of project directory Path Resolution: Verified absolute paths work correctly File Creation: Blog entry created in correct location Index Update: Index.md should be updated automatically Technical Findings The /a-blog command uses absolute paths like: ...

Test Development Session 1 🎯 Key Insights Successfully implemented automated blog entry indexing system Learned about conflict resolution for same-day entries 📝 What Happened This was the first test session for multiple sessions per day handling. 🔧 Technical Details File: test-session-1.md Date: 2025-09-20 💭 Reflections Testing the blog system functionality. 🔄 Patterns Noticed First session of the day should not have a suffix.

Test Development Session 2 🎯 Key Insights Second session of the same day should get a suffix Index should maintain chronological order within same date 📝 What Happened This was the second test session for multiple sessions per day handling. 🔧 Technical Details File: test-session-2.md Date: 2025-09-20 Session: #2 💭 Reflections Testing conflict resolution and index management. 🔄 Patterns Noticed Multiple same-day sessions should be grouped but ordered newest first.

2025-09-21 - Dual-Machine Development Workflow Integration with Shared NFS Architecture 🎯 Key Insights Architecture Solution: Separated system-specific paths (global settings) from project commands (project settings) to eliminate Claude Code startup errors Sync Script Portability: All platform-specific sync scripts now version-controlled in project, enabling consistent cross-platform development workflow Collaborative Framework: Established pattern where one machine can control/plan while the other provides feedback, with cross-system command execution capabilities 📝 What Happened This session achieved a major infrastructure milestone by integrating both Mac Mini and Development Pi into a unified development environment with shared NFS folder structure. The work began with investigating “Path not found” errors that appeared when launching Claude Code on both systems. ...
