Wallet that pauses cleanly + real top-up flow

Out-of-balance is no longer a silent failure mode. ONI hard-refuses turns at $0, the chat shows a friendly banner instead of a raw error, and the “Top up balance” button finally opens a modal that actually moves money.

NewHard balance gate at the v3 turn endpoint — ONI returns 402 BALANCE_EMPTY at < $0.01 instead of running anyway.
NewStripe Checkout top-up endpoint with dedicated webhook handler that credits the wallet + writes to the account ledger atomically.
NewOwner-only manual-credit fallback for emergency / pre-Stripe credits, gated by ONNETA_OWNER_EMAIL.
BetterTyped chat draft survives a 402 — text stays in the textarea, send button auto-disables, and a localStorage save means even a page reload doesn't lose the message.
BetterFriendly “Wallet is empty — ONI paused this turn” banner replaces the raw error string.

Cycle-end memory: ONI learns after every turn

Every orchestrator turn now writes a 3-part retrospective (tried → happened → learned) and picks the lowest-health capability as a next-cycle hint. Future cycles read these instead of re-litigating every decision from scratch.

NewEnd-of-cycle finalize hook records a structured learning via Gemini, written to the per-project Learning Log.
NewCapability-health scorer computes a 0–100 score per capability based on data populated, depth, and recency.
NewpickNextCapability() returns the lowest-score eligible capability so the next cycle has a default focus.
BetterPick stashed in onneta_kv (ns='cycle_state', key='next_capability') so the Memory page can surface “ONI will probably touch X next.”

Brand identity is automatic at project creation

Tell ONI what you're building and the brand profile lands before you finish reading the cinematic — palette, typography, voice, words to avoid, logo concept. No “Generate” button to click.

NewBRANDER specialist runs in-pipeline at project creation and writes branding_profiles atomically.
NewDirect-Gemini fallback path keeps the brand pipeline working when AWS Bedrock auth is down.
NewMemory page auto-populates 7 canonical facts (audience, tagline, pricing model, key metric, etc.) extracted from the vision + brand.
NewFirst retrospective auto-recorded so the brand-direction lesson is queryable from cycle one.

Every capability surface lights up inline

Revenue, Inbox, Proposals, Invoices, Marketing, CRM, HRM, Analytics, Templates, and Branding now render inside the project workspace instead of bouncing through a dispatcher. Each surface explains where its data lives and how ONI extends it.

NewRevenue Specialist with public-payment endpoint + idempotent dedup on gateway_payment_id.
NewInbox correctly gated to “Inactive” until a verified mailbox is provisioned (managed by Onneta via AWS SES).
NewAuto-bridge: signed proposal drafts an invoice, paid invoice records a Revenue payment — single helper called from every site.
FixedMarketing reads the same contacts table as CRM (filtered by source) — single source of truth.
FixedPublic contact form endpoint now accepts cross-origin POSTs (CORS headers + OPTIONS handler).

Visual mode — ONI sees the site it's building

ONI now takes Playwright screenshots of the live site mid-cycle, surfaces them in chat, and turns every visual finding into a tracked goal. Stops shipping changes blind.

NewPlaywright screenshot tool wired into the orchestrator — desktop / mobile / per-page.
NewScreenshots render as image cards in chat with file paths + sizes.
NewEvery visual finding ONI mentions in a screenshot review becomes a backlog goal automatically.
BetterSite-aware + capability-aware extraction — ONI inspects live pages and existing capabilities before proposing new ones.

Cockpit 2.0 — chat-as-intent-stream

The cockpit is now organized around what you said and what ONI did about it, not around developer panels. Goals are first-class. Suggestion chips help you steer without typing.

NewPlain-English UI throughout — developer jargon hidden behind a setting.
NewGoals strip surfaces the active backlog inline next to the live preview.
NewSuggestion chips under the chat input ('Add a contact form', 'Change the colors', etc.).
NewMid-build edits — click a palette swatch to patch the live build without typing.
BetterViewport toggle (desktop / tablet / mobile) in the cockpit preview.

Files + DB + Storage surfaces honest about state

The infrastructure capabilities now read live state — what's actually provisioned, what's on disk, what schema exists — and tell you the truth instead of showing optimistic placeholders.

FixedDB capability queries the real provisioned schema and renders a KPI strip with row counts per table.
FixedStorage counts source code on disk, not just S3 uploads — matches what you'd actually pay for.
NewClickable tables in DB surface — peek any row inline.
BetterFiles surface is read-only by default with an explicit “unlock to edit” mode to prevent accidental writes.

Project DELETE actually cleans up everything

Right-click → Delete on a project now removes the disk artifacts, schema, repo, project DB, and sentinels — atomically. No orphaned rows, no zombie cloud resources.

NewRight-click context menu on the project list with Delete + Open in new tab.
NewCascade deletes the per-project Postgres DB, GitHub repo, sandbox runtime, and main-DB schema in one transaction.
FixedCockpit iframe CSP now allows *.onneta.com in frame-src so live previews load.
