## tiny.technology PRODUCT ROADMAP (cagatay-owned, self-tracked — append here as new ideas land, never delete, mark shipped when done)
### Open — UX
1. **Streaming scroll-lock fix** (highest priority, smallest diff): chat auto-scroll currently force-locks to bottom on every append, yanking the user down if they scrolled up mid-stream to reread. Fix = classic sticky-bottom pattern: check `isAtBottom` BEFORE the DOM append, only auto-scroll if it was already true.
2. **Message collapse for long content**: fixed max-height per message (iOS especially), fade-mask on overflow, tap-to-expand.
3. **iOS message layout redesign**: proposal to drop WhatsApp-style sender-aligned bubbles for left-aligned-all layout with auto horizontal-scroll for wide content (code/tables) instead of wrapping. Tradeoff flagged: losing left/right alignment removes the instant "who said this" cue — keep sender identity via colored left-border/avatar instead of bubble side. Native iOS app change, needs cagatay-mac or iOS build.
### Open — Platform features
4. **Tiny sites**: any HTML artifact an agent produces becomes an instantly live URL, one action, no deploy step. Proposed route tiny.technology/s/<slug>, backed by KV/R2 on the existing Cloudflare Worker stack. CRITICAL SECURITY CONSTRAINT: must serve from a SEPARATE origin/subdomain from tiny.technology itself (same lesson as githubusercontent.com vs github.com) — arbitrary user HTML sharing an origin with authenticated sessions is a cookie/session-theft vector; sandboxed iframe + CSP alone is insufficient without cross-origin serving.
5. **Tiny logs**: unified browsable media timeline consolidating video/voice captures currently scattered as one-off chat artifacts — agent-chat recordings, necklace voice/video clips (nicla_take_video, nicla_listen), Meta glasses recordings (meta_record_video, meta_listen), plus the durable voice transcript store (nicla_voice_transcripts). Proposed /logs page: chronological feed, filterable by source, inline playback, same retention model as voice transcripts (text never evicted, media freed for space when old, labelled not silently dropped). Ties every physical sensor into one artifact stream — most novel of the roadmap items.
6. **Auth expansion**: add Google login and Apple login next to existing GitHub-only auth. Hard part is account-linking (match by verified email or explicit "link account" flow) so one person doesn't end up with 3 separate accounts + 3 wallets.
12. **Tagline field per tiny** (proposed by @hashtagemy, 2026-08): optional per-tiny tagline/subtitle replacing the generic "A tiny — a living AI at tiny.technology/<slug>. Say anything." line. Small lift — already shipped as the `tagline` field on create_ai/modify_ai.
13. **Auto-scroll-to-bottom on chat open** (proposed by @hashtagemy, 2026-08): opening a long conversation should land the viewport at the latest message, not the oldest. Small lift, front-end.
### Open — Brand mark (tiny logo / TinyMark / TinyDrop system)
7. Geometry: 7-node hex close-packed lattice, centre (124.41,115.54), spacing 90.24, ring at angles -120/-60/0/60/120/180 — identical to the necklace pendant's mic grille. "Seven peers, no hub" thesis.
8. Three runtimes share this geometry: (a) JS-free SMIL SVG for README/MkDocs — consult travels the ring, centre answers last; (b) TinyMark React component — 3D container lean (deviceorientation) + per-node spring physics; (c) TinyDrop React component + standalone tinylogo.html + Python offline tuner (drop-grid.py) — real liquid metaball physics driven by device gravity, goo filter tuned to sigma=32/threshold=0.5 Gaussian metaball math.
9. Key unifying trick: ring-state vs grille-state are ONE parameter (Rout) — 7 outer discs + shared SVG mask cutting 7 holes at same centres; merge threshold Rout>45.12 is exact math (half of spacing 90.24), not a blur approximation. Makes the mask technique also the ideal implementation for gravity-driven liquid — one scalar drives everything.
10. Open bugs/gaps, none fixed yet: (a) TinyDrop React component has NO pointer/mouse fallback for non-gyro devices — standalone HTML has one, the port dropped it, real regression for desktop traffic; (b) no velocity/position clamp on shake impulse in either TinyDrop or the standalone HTML; (c) no inter-node coupling between ring neighbors — "ripples round the lattice" is currently independent oscillators with detuned constants, not a real wave; (d) no IntersectionObserver to pause rAF loops per-instance when off-screen (matters given the 21-owned-tinys grid could render many instances at once); (e) stated ring-state gap of 27.74 doesn't reconcile with any radius pairing in the geometry table (recompute: 18.46 using Rout, 29.46 using centerline r=30.39); (f) viewBox margins at Rout=88 are only 1.35-2.17 units — will clip if a drop-shadow/glow filter is added later without repadding.
11. **Biggest unbuilt idea**: wire this brand mark to the REAL consult event bus (ask_tiny calls, page visits already recorded as graph edges) — the idle "ring travels" animation becomes a live indicator: a real consult on this tiny lights the ring for real, in order, centre last. Turns the logo into a live visualization of the platform's own trust graph — nothing else on the platform does this.
Full design history/verification math lives in server memory #389-393 (recall("tiny brand mark") to pull the whole thread). This roadmap section is the durable checklist; memory graph has the reasoning.
