Week in Review: A Quiet Week, Bede Notes, and Letting the System Catch Up

Only 5 commits this week, which is probably what happens after a 725-commit sprint. Still, there was useful work in lesson-planning and a bit of reality-checking on the teaching system.

Five commits this week.

Honestly, after the previous week, that feels medically responsible.

Lesson Planning

Most of the work was in lesson-planning:

  • Bede agent MVP design
  • shared Claude and Codex workflow docs
  • review homework for a student with a work-context focus
  • profile and work-context updates

Not the kind of week that creates a dramatic changelog, but definitely the kind that stops the next month from becoming disorganised nonsense.

I keep finding that after a big build sprint, there needs to be a quieter week where the system catches up with what just happened:

  • docs catch up
  • process catches up
  • assumptions get written down
  • the stuff that was only living in my head gets somewhere more stable

Firstly Academy

There was only one commit here, but it was a useful note: intermittent lesson and review data gaps.

Sometimes the right move is not to pretend you’ve fixed a thing. Just write down the problem clearly so it does not vanish into the swamp.

That’s It

No huge launch this week.

No dramatic graph.

Just the boring but necessary part where you breathe, document, and make the next stretch less chaotic than the last one.

Which, tbh, is probably healthy.
