Uh oh, here we go again...
The Codex agent is still not as easy to work with as Claude, but boy, the model can work through much more difficult issues. Find the tools that best solve the issues you have!
It would be a problem when viewing projections later in the week, though - this 100% would have been a real issue that would have gotten complaints, and would be incredibly difficult for me to find (and even believe)
So before merging, I ran `/review` from the Codex CLI - it called out the same issue. From here, I was able to talk through the issue, and came to realize that it _was_ real, but wouldn't effect the app in the way I most commonly use it - updating my account balances, and then viewing projections…
The Codex code review is impressive - through the web, it continued to call out an issue on a Bills to Budget PR that I couldn't replicate, and couldn't quite follow. None of my tests failed, and none of my manual testing exposed it.

Still, it was persistent enough that I wanted to dig further… 🧵
That is such a ridiculous commercial 🤦‍♂️
If you ask another Codex session to review the changes, I’ll bet it just says “LGTM”
I hope it finishes before the context fills!
Doing a feature audit of Bills to Budget, using Brainstorm/AI for structured note taking. Not yet perfect, but I love it anyway!
I'm rooting for the dolphins and jets to tie - what are the odds?

Reminder to turn off beta updates if you have a new phone pre-ordered and don't want to have to update the new phone to the beta before doing your migration
Bills to Budget's Liquid Glass update is here!

I'm planning for a 2.0 update later this year* - if there's something you've always needed, or wanted to be easier to manage, please reach out and let me know!

* 'hopefully' later this year 😳
Mind Maps are an incredible way to inject context for AI sessions!

This gives Brainstorm/AI a super-power. I've now built a full 'knowledge base' for my apps - just open a brainstorm session, tell the AI to link the 'Bills to Budget Knowledge Base', and it's an instant expert. Incredibly powerful!
Mind Maps are available now!

Mind Maps were part of the original plan for Brainstorm/AI, but it felt like a daunting task. The work isn't done yet, but I'm super proud of this work, and excited to have it out!

And while building this over the summer, I discovered something completely unexpected...
Brainstorm/AI is ready for Liquid Glass, and it's bringing a huge new feature: Mind Maps!

Work with AI to visualize your ideas, reorganize your thoughts, and turn your loose sparks into real, actionable plans.

Available now!

1/ Introducing, Plinky 5. Every pixel of Plinky has been rethought and redesigned for Apple’s beautiful new Liquid Glass. From the moment you open it, Plinky feels right at home on iOS 26, while staying distinctly Plinky. But I went far beyond that to make saving links faster and more intuitive.
They won in extra innings 😃
Alonso walk off home run in the 10th!
2-2 in the 7th inning 🤞
FYI - I requested an expedited review, and it went In Review within 5 minutes
Would you look at that
Why didn’t I think of that!? Expedited review requested 🤞
Manifesting a Mets win, and for Bills to Budget to go In Review 🤞
