Before releasing Cargo earlier this year, I thought I was gonna hire someone to help me keep up with bugs & feature requests. Today, I barely look at bug reports. I point Claude at the issue, it opens a PR, and after a quick review I ship it. 🚀

18 Aug

Obviously, having a large test suite helps with this. I can ship fixes with confidence... without testing everything manually. I'm only _really_ involved more complicated PRs or planning out new features. Freeing up my spare time to hack away on ideas!

You can now link to Runway models with Statamic's Link fieldtype, just like you can with entries and assets. 🔗

statamic.devLink FieldtypeA select box gives you the option to choose what type of link you'd like to create. When set to URL it gives you a text box to enter the hyperlink. When set to Entry it opens a stack with all your entries to choose from. And when set to First Child will redirect a visitor to the first child page in a structure.

Runway is registering its own "link type" — a feature added in Statamic v6.26.0, which was released yesterday. 🚀 statamic.dev/fieldtypes/...

Something is wrong with my Claude Code and I can't figure it out... The latest model I can use is Opus 4.5. It claims that updates are available but Homebrew says I'm on the latest version. I've tried re-installing and clearing my .claude directory to no avail. Any ideas?

Ran into something I hadn't considered with clearinghouse.app this week. Accountants/bookkeepers are a big audience for my app, but while one was onboarding, they realised that only admins can install Stripe apps. They only had "Accountant" access (and rightly so) 😬

My workaround: install links. An accountant sends a link to their client. Client clicks the link, authorises the Stripe app, done. Accountant gets an email and continues setup.

16 May

It's such a simple fix, but without it I'd probably lose a decent chunk of accountants at the first step in the setup process.

Sure, they could ask their client for elevated privileges, but it's a little awkward. "Hey client, can you please make me an admin so I can install this app to make my job easier? Pretty please?"
