v0.232.0Winter campaign maxes at ¥40,000「しずめたしひょう」 Shizumeta Shihyou2026-09-01
The Winter Reading Challenge was made by carrying the July campaign's final weekly cap across fourteen weeks, which came to a ¥96,000 base - far more than the ¥40,000 the family had in mind. The campaign is repriced: the ¥40,000 is spread flat across its fourteen weeks in tens of yen, the rounding paid in the final week so a perfect reader reaches the target on the goal date exactly, and the bonus caps keep July's proportion of bonus to base so a great week is still worth more than a good one. The campaign scripts now size the caps to a decided target rather than only printing it, and a reprice script changes both for a campaign already running.

v0.229.0Winter Reading Challenge「けいぞくのけっか」 Keizoku no Kekka2026-09-01
Hanako and Kamiko keep reading. The Winter Reading Challenge runs from 1 September to 6 December 2026, fourteen weeks, the Sunday of the week John named as the end. It was made from the July campaign the way the July one was made from the spring one, by hand at the time: the same thresholds, bonuses and streak, the weekly caps held flat at July's final week for every week of the window, the target their sum, the adults' opt-outs carried over so the leaderboard shows the same people, and the girls' books carried over so a book started in July can be checked in tomorrow. The July campaign is marked completed, which is what the site does itself when a new one activates. The making is a script now - pnpm campaign:create - that validates with the editor's own schema, snapshots every table it touches before writing, and does the whole change in one transaction, so the next campaign is made the same way rather than a slightly different way.

v0.186.0The campaign selector that actually switches「こたえるこころ」 Kotaeru Kokoro2026-08-31
Picking the other reading campaign on the Check-ins panel did nothing. The select snapped back to the first campaign before anyone could see it move, so a member with two campaigns could only ever look at one of them. Choosing a campaign did set it, and did start a fetch for the new one - but the panel keeps showing the previous response while the next is in flight, and that stale response still named the campaign being left. A rule that let the server's answer overrule the member's put the selection straight back. The member's choice now wins whenever it names a campaign that exists; the server's answer still seeds the choice on arrival and still rescues it if the campaign it named has been deleted. Found by repairing the smoke suite rather than by anyone reporting it, which is the first thing that suite has caught since it started telling the truth.
