Recent episodes from Headroom Daily

  1. The Great Cleanup

    Both active repositories spent the day paying down technical debt — Headroom stripped out dead code and fixed performance bottlenecks in its caching layer, while the Last30Days skill repo closed out a long backlog of correctness fixes…

  2. Counting Things Correctly

    A wave of fixes across the Headroom codebase converged on one problem: measurement accuracy — from loop detection double-counting replayed tool calls, to token estimates for reasoning blocks, to usage aggregation across continuations. A…

  3. Honest Numbers and Hardened Dependencies

    A cluster of fixes across stats, savings, and memory ranking removed cases where Headroom reported numbers it hadn't actually earned, while a parallel dependency remediation effort cleared 194 of 198 open security alerts. Several smaller…

  4. The Great Savings Number Correction

    A cluster of six merged fixes in the Headroom repo quietly corrected how the product measures and reports its own token savings, meaning reported numbers for Codex and Claude Code traffic will drop substantially going forward.…

  5. The Cost of Counting Wrong

    Today's activity centers on two proxies quietly measuring or handling things incorrectly under real-world conditions — Headroom's savings math and compression logic, and last30days's data provenance and credential handling — plus a…

  6. The Loop Detector Gets an Overhaul

    Three separate fixes converged on the same problem in the "learn" command's loop detector, while a pair of performance patches cut unnecessary work in the memory and cache layers. Together, they point to a codebase tightening up…

  7. Fixing the Fixes

    Today's activity centers on a wave of correctness patches across the Headroom proxy and SDK — several fixing bugs introduced by *previous* bug fixes — alongside a strong benchmark result showing Gemini 3.8 Flash traffic through Headroom…

  8. The Correctness Cleanup

    A cluster of bug fixes across the headroom proxy repaired quiet correctness gaps — compression that ran when it shouldn't, auth headers read in the wrong order, and data mislabeled on restart. Two accessibility and platform-detection…
