Weekly meeting, week of 2026-10-05¶
Numbers: 36 listings, 27 views (+20 in 7d), 0 favorites, 0 sales, $0 revenue. Listings are new, so traffic is still thin. Pets (dog watercolor) leads with 8 views, all in the last 7 days. Muertos calavera has 4 views in 7d across 8 listings. Four listings have 0 views and no design mapping (4583695993, 4583696529, 4583707806, 4587069712 is the hobbies one).
Pixel: 25 done and 35 failed (42% success), down from 100% last week. Rejections are mostly low-contrast text, edge clipping, truncated art_subject text, and "unparseable reply" prechecks. This is a prompt/pipeline problem, not a demand problem. Cost is $1.01 for the week.
Q: Backlog is 42 and growing (+23). The oldest item is 6.4 days old. This will delay listings against the plan's 3-week lead rule.
Merch / Fixer: Merch is healthy (96%). Fixer backlog is 17 (+16), oldest 5.4 days.
Plan check (week of 5 Oct): Thanksgiving x2, Veterans x1, Christmas x2 (nurse, teacher). The Monday run has 12 designs queued. The Christmas window is closing, so rolled-over slots must go first.
Priorities next week: 1. Clear Q's backlog before building more. 2. Fix Pixel's failure causes: text contrast on dark backgrounds, safe margins, no truncated subjects. 3. Get the Muertos and Halloween designs live. Halloween is nearly out of window. 4. Give the unmapped and zero-view listings new titles. 5. Make variants of the dog and calavera designs, which are the only ones with traction.
Owner: OpenRouter credits are about $6, roughly 3 days at the $2/day budget, with 12 designs queued. A top-up decision is needed. The two open questions are duplicates, so I'm asking once.
