Work History
June 2026
140 Commits • 53 Features
Jun 1, 2026June 2026 Overview: Implemented Workflow as a primary memory category across desktop and mobile (category chips, backend-filtered views, workflow parsing, default filters) including a one-time cache reconciliation to drop orphaned memories and align with server-side categories. Built Omni realtime WS relay with omni_relay and auto_model routers and a daily /v1/auto/model-pick quality/speed selector. Enhanced Desktop Omni with a real-time STT/TTS client via the backend relay, provider settings, Auto model selector, fallbacks, and on-device transcription tweaks. Integrated Parakeet as a transcription provider (server-routed engine) with shared-secret authentication; added Parakeet STT backend scaffolding and a self-hosted streaming STT bridge gated behind PARAKEET_STT_ENABLED and per-user opt-in. Strengthened memory search and lifecycle: verbatim transcript-chunk vectors, indexing at conversation processing time, keeping transcript text out of Pinecone metadata, and deletion of transcript-chunk vectors on deletion; plus BM25 + RRF hybrid reranking and MCP search improvements. The month also included automated testing harnesses for desktop omni tests to improve end-to-end reliability. This work collectively reduces cloud transcription costs, improves search precision and data integrity, and accelerates feature delivery for memory, transcription, and model selection workflows.

Jan 1, 20262026-01 monthly summary for basedhardware/omi: Delivered onboarding refinements, multi-goal synchronization across devices, richer homepage widgets, and expanded user controls, while strengthening data persistence and tool stability. Key outcomes include streamlined onboarding with auto-permission checks and language selection, robust deadline handling and default-goal tracking, macOS text selection support, and a cross-device multi-goal experience cached locally. Added Daily Score, Today Tasks, and Goals widgets on the homepage; synchronized up to 3 goals across devices with local cache and backend as source of truth. Improved reliability via persistent Voice Recorder, a dedicated Notifications Settings page, and longer timeouts for AI tooling; also implemented platform-specific improvements (macOS, iOS) and developer experience changes such as disabling watchOS by default. Some experimental Claude Code integration was added and subsequently reverted.

Dec 1, 2025December 2025 summary for basedhardware/omi: Delivered a set of high-value features focused on user engagement, AI-assisted goal management, and offline resilience, while hardening reliability through targeted bug fixes and deployment improvements. Key features introduced include a homepage OMI Grade widget with a 0-5 daily grade calculated from memories (learning) and tasks (execution), and a Score widget with a 7-day graph, cleaner design, and actionable tips. Added an AI-powered Goal Tracker with auto-progress and in-chat goal/task integration, and shipped the viral IQ Rating plugin (Who’s the Dumbest?) with SQLite storage and 3-month recency filtering. Strengthened offline capabilities with manual memories offline with sync and persistent local storage, plus persistence of memories across restarts. Deployment and workflow robustness were improved via Railway app-at-module-level fixes, auto-deploy pipelines, and related GitHub Action/workflow improvements. Several UX and stability fixes (save button taps, YAML fixes, and UX refinements for goal tracking) further improved reliability and user experience, enabling faster time-to-value for users and safer, automated deployments.
