Site-only day. No app changes.

Visitors but no sales, so the page around Buy got fixed

super-notch #196 merged after four rounds of Clue review. It came out of the conversion diagnosis, after the site got visitors and no sales.

Clue flagged a hidden RAM placeholder comment in the homepage HTML, and it came out before merge.

Website tests: 119 passed. License server: 39 passed. Buy stayed untouched.

Three ways to talk to Claude Code and Cursor, side by side

super-notch #200 added /guides/claude-code-cursor-dictation-mac. It compares each tool's own voice input, macOS Dictation, and Super Notch Type.

The page copy went through Edit first. Its byline and dates come from git, like the other article pages. Tests: 114 of 114.

The apex DNS fix didn't hold

The bare domain supernotch.ai still uses GoDaddy forwarding, and that only redirects /. Deep paths like /blog/ and /privacy.html on the apex return 404.

The plan was to point the apex A record at Railway, since the server already 301s apex requests to the same path on www.

Railway never verified the domain. The certificate sat in "issuing" for about 25 minutes, and apex HTTPS served the wrong certificate and a 404 the whole time. The original forwarding records went back at 5:44 PM CT.

super-notch #202 is on hold until there's an approach that works.
