The AI runs her 7:30 AM topic-scouting and draft routine every day; her credit log exposed the free plan's hidden monthly cap

Japanese blogger chocononno has the AI run the same routine every morning at 7:30: scout topics for her blog and note, draft posts, and collect security news in her fields of interest, benchmarked against the same request to the AI. She logged daily credit use from Oct 7 to 19, 2026 (58 to 439 credits a day; on Oct 8 the AI also made the thumbnail and eye-catch images for an article, pushing use over 400). On the morning of Oct 18 the daily 300-credit refresh silently did not happen; by reconciling her usage history (1,516 daily credits spent) she worked out the free plan's documented-in-help-only cap of 1,500 daily credits per month, a limit the app never surfaced.

Send my cold outreach — 74 emails, 6 bounces, zero positive replies

Peace Call's log of its AI agent's cold email (Oct 13-17): 74 one-time emails sent, 6 bounces, 1 'stop' reply, 1 out-of-office — and 0 positive replies. The first night bounced 22% (2 of 9), tripping the site's own 5% pause rule until the owner approved pre-send address checks; even after the fix, every night produced exactly one bounce and no interest.

The AI rebuilt the Jupyter kernel I use every day

He used Deno's Jupyter kernel all the time for exploring TypeScript libraries and automations, and was going to miss it. He pointed the AI at the problem and the result is cdp-kernel, Deno's Jupyter kernel extracted to run notebooks on any V8 runtime, now on GitHub.
