A standalone companion site under sessions/, answering one question with primary sources: how was PocketJS built from zero to its first release — how did the author think and steer, and how did the coding agent decompose and land the work?

What it is

  • Built from the author's own Claude Code session archive: 69 sessions (dreamcart prehistory 06-16 → v0.5.0 on 07-17, ~540 MB of JSONL), aligned with 96 merged PRs and both repos' git history.
  • Chronicle (5 chapters): dreamcart prehistory → Day 1 extraction → identity day → the 38-commit big bang → the first release (v0.2.0 → v0.3.0 in 37 hours).
  • Analysis (2 chapters): the author's steering patterns (verbatim quote taxonomy) and the agent's decomposition/verification patterns (plans, task boards, recovery stories, tool-call stats).
  • Archive: a page per session with the verbatim instruction stream + ExitPlanMode plans; day-by-day timeline; build-time-computed numbers page.

How it's built

  • Mirrors site/: own build.ts / serve.ts / wrangler.jsonc, same Tailwind theme tokens + nav chrome + shiki one-dark-pro, deployable as an assets-only Worker to sessions.pocketjs.dev (bun sessions/build.ts && bunx wrangler deploy -c sessions/wrangler.jsonc).
  • Generated pages (timeline / archive / numbers) recompute from sessions/data/*.json on every build.
  • Local preview: bun sessions/build.ts && bun sessions/serve.tshttp://127.0.0.1:8150/

Review notes

  • sessions/data/sessions.json contains the distilled author prompt archive (verbatim, clipped at 2500 chars). Scanned for credentials — clean; the only emails present are public identities. Worth a skim before marking ready, since merging publishes the corpus with the repo.
  • The extraction pipeline & editorial rules are documented on the site itself at /colophon/.

A standalone companion site (sessions/) reconstructing how PocketJS went
from zero to its first release, built from the author's own Claude Code
session archive: 69 sessions distilled into a chaptered chronicle
(dreamcart prehistory → extraction → identity → big bang → v0.2.0),
two analysis chapters (author steering patterns, agent decomposition
patterns), a full day-by-day timeline, a per-session archive with the
verbatim instruction streams, and build-time-computed stats pages.

Same design system as pocketjs.dev (shared theme tokens, nav chrome,
shiki one-dark-pro), its own build.ts/serve.ts/wrangler.jsonc targeting
sessions.pocketjs.dev as an assets-only Worker.
