Successfully resolved multiple GitHub workflow issues across AILIS repository and performed comprehensive branch cleanup. ## Work Completed ### 1. Developer Kit Repository - ✅ Merged PR #1: RAPPEL Framework Comparison documentation - Added comprehensive documentation comparing DollhouseMCP with Chris Penn's RAPPEL framework - Documented 378+ MCP-compatible platforms - Positioned DollhouseMCP as key player in AI customization ecosystem - ✅ Created Issue #6: RAPPEL Framework Implementation Guide - Planning document for creating practical RAPPEL → DollhouseMCP guidance - Includes evaluation, implementation guide, templates, and workflows ### 2. AILIS Repository - Critical Fixes #### YAML Multiline String Fix - ✅ Created and merged PR #18: Hotfix for YAML parsing errors - Fixed workflow failures caused by YAML interpreting markdown lists in multiline strings - Changed template literals to array.join() format - Added comprehensive validation infrastructure: - `.github/scripts/validate-workflows.py` - `.github/workflows/yaml-validation.yml` - `.pre-commit-config.yaml` - Updated CONTRIBUTING.md with YAML best practices #### Changelog Automation Loop Fix - ✅ Identified self-referential loop in changelog automation - Workflow was triggering itself when CHANGELOG.md was merged - Created PR #21: Added `paths-ignore: - 'CHANGELOG.md'` to prevent loop - Successfully merged with admin override #### Branch Cleanup - ✅ Deleted 9 stale branches: - 6 changelog-update-* branches - 3 hotfix branches (link-validation, readme-workflow-protection, workflow-failures) - ✅ Committed session notes updates ### 3. Repository Status Survey Surveyed all DollhouseMCP repositories for pending work: **Repositories with actionable items:** - **mcp-server**: 21 commits ahead on hotfix/workflow-failures branch - **tools-internal**: Untracked `.github/GITFLOW.md` file - **experimental**: 2 untracked files - **collection**: Open dependency update PR ### 4. DollhouseMCP Elements Activation #### Activated Personas - ✅ **Alex Sterling**: Thorough and capable Claude Code assistant - Detail-oriented, quality-focused approach - Full utilization of Claude Code tools #### Activated Skills - ✅ **Conversation Audio Summarizer**: macOS TTS integration for summaries - Updated with comprehensive pronunciation guide - Added "YAML" → "yammel" pronunciation - Integrated master pronunciation guide from business repository ### 5. Audio Pronunciation Guide Discovery - ✅ Located master pronunciation guide: `business/documents/identity/audio-pronunciation-guide.md` - ✅ Updated conversation-audio-summarizer skill with pronunciation rules - ✅ Demonstrated audio summaries to Erik and Heather ### 6. YouTube Channel Concept - ✅ Developed "Stupid AI Tricks with DollhouseMCP" concept - Letterman-style demonstrations of DollhouseMCP features - Created audio pitch/summary of channel concept - Episode ideas: Gordon Ramsay code reviews, tough-love coach, pronunciation disasters ## Key Decisions Made 1. **YAML Workflow Fix Strategy**: Used array.join() pattern instead of template literals 2. **Changelog Automation**: Added path exclusion to prevent self-triggering 3. **Branch Management**: Cleaned up stale branches to maintain repository hygiene 4. **Audio Pronunciation**: Standardized on "yammel" for YAML across all audio outputs 5. **YouTube Channel**: Approved "Stupid AI Tricks" format for DollhouseMCP demos ## Blockers Resolved - ✅ YAML parsing errors in GitHub workflows - ✅ Changelog automation infinite loop - ✅ Repository divergence from stale branches ## For Tomorrow ### Priority Tasks 1. **mcp-server**: Address 21 commits on hotfix/workflow-failures branch - Review what's in those commits - Determine if ready to merge or needs cleanup 2. **tools-internal**: Handle untracked GitFlow file - Review and potentially commit `.github/GITFLOW.md` 3. **Repository Cleanup**: Continue systematic review - Check experimental repository's 2 untracked files - Review open PRs across all repositories ### Open Questions - Should we standardize GitFlow workflows across all repositories? - NPM token issue from earlier sessions - still blocked? - Auto-tagging workflow - needs implementation? ## Technical Notes ### YAML Fix Pattern ```yaml # Before (causes parsing errors): body: `- List item` # After (works correctly): body: [ '* List item' ].join('\n') ``` ### Audio Pronunciation Rules Established - YAML → "yammel" - AI → "A I" (separate letters) - MCP → "M C P" (separate letters) - npm → "N P M" (separate letters) ## Environment Status - Working Directory: `/Users/mick/Developer/Organizations/DollhouseMCP/active` - Active Personas: Alex Sterling - Active Skills: Conversation Audio Summarizer - Model: Opus 4.1 (switching between Opus and Sonnet based on usage) ## Session Metrics - PRs Merged: 3 (#1, #18, #21) - Issues Created: 1 (#6) - Branches Deleted: 9 - Repositories Updated: 3 (developer-kit, AILIS, mcp-server session notes) --- *Session concluded at 7:30 PM ET. Ready to resume tomorrow with mcp-server hotfix review.*
