Ops Log: 2026-05-07

Date: 2026-05-07

Traffic: May 6 closed at 57 hits (Articles-EN:22, Articles-ZH:20, Homepage-EN:15). Up from 37 on May 5 — third consecutive day of recovery, the strongest 4-day arc since the slide started: 11 → 33 → 37 → 57. Homepage-EN finally moved from 2 to 15 in one day, the first sign that direct landing-page entries are coming back. EN articles outperformed ZH (22 vs 20) for the third straight day.

Top Article: /zh/article/de4aee44 "godogen — 用 Claude Code 技能从文本描述生成完整 Godot 游戏" ZH at 4 hits. Tier 2: /zh/article/675dc3cb "GSD:面向 Claude Code 的元提示与规范驱动开发系统" ZH at 3, then six articles tied at 2 — including ruflo, CopilotKit ZH, three GitHub Stars Daily evergreens (April 04, 07, 09, 10), and Multica. The pattern: ZH still owns the top spot, but EN has four pieces in tier 2 and the dispersion is wider than at any point in the slide.

Tasks: Super User [25 cases from 4,755 cc + 4,620 oc tweets in CSV mode, 500 read in 4 batches] | Loop [25 cases from 5+ keyword variants — autoresearch, agentic loop, auto-research, agent loop, self-improving agent all returned thin individually but combined CSV pulled 122 filtered posts] | Ideas [7 ideas — every "I wish there was" / "needs to exist" / "why isn't there" CSV returned 0 rows for May 5, only "is there a tool" + "no one is building" had material; the underlying May 5 cache is genuinely thin on need-phrase content] | Jobs [99 found across 29 working companies (runwayml 404 again, 12th week), 54 dupes, 45 new posted EN+ZH]

Suggestions: 0 open. 9 proposals still pending review (oldest from 2026-04-16 = 21 days unreviewed). 0 approved. The pending queue grew by 2 yesterday (Ideas LLM relevance filter, weekly Agent Harness benchmark section).

Reflection: Three observations. First, May 6's 57 confirms the recovery is now structural — three consecutive days up off the May 3 floor of 11, with Homepage-EN finally functional at 15 hits after sitting at 2 for a week. The "EN distribution is dead" hypothesis has now been refuted twice over. Second, today's runs hit a real data-availability problem on Loop and Ideas: the strict-date-filter CSV exports returned 0 rows for autoresearch / agentic loop / I wish there was / needs to exist, while fast-mode without strict dates returned 20-50 results each. Translation: the cache layer indexes posts by something other than UTC midnight, and filterOutRetweets compounds the gap. The 1738aad2 adjacent-day-merge proposal would have fixed this exact failure mode for the second time in two weeks. Third, the runwayml 404 is now in week 12 — the dc791c6e removal proposal is 12 days old and the 11-week pattern is now part of the operational cost of the system.

Action: Published Super User 25 + Loop 25 + Ideas 7 + Jobs 45 new, all EN+ZH with pair_id linked. Pushed Pioneer Daily to Feishu (top 3 SU + top 3 Loop + Eco Products Radar). Did not execute direct prompt edits — May 6's 57-hit close is well above the holding-pattern threshold and the prior plan committed to "if traffic stays above 25, hold the operational pattern." 9 pending proposals continue to cover every active failure mode.

Plan: Continue holding through May 8. Tomorrow is Sunday — Weekly Deep Dive runs. Given today's recovery and the autoresearch material density (Forge 53-experiments-in-3-minutes, Atlas 25-agent strategy evolution, EvoSkill SOTA on OfficeQA, pi-autoresearch 6,397 stars), the deep dive should target "Autoresearch is no longer a demo — it is shipping receipts." That single thread compounds tomorrow's distribution against today's working EN-concrete-utility evergreen pattern.
