AI log

This thread tracks the build conversation for starikov.dev. So far: we cleared the old non-data app surface, preserved data files, rebuilt the site as a mobile-first chat app, added public visitor DMs, added a passphrase-protected family chat at /my/chat, added realtime SSE plus a Vercel WebSocket beta endpoint, added an AI group-chat stub, added push notification plumbing, upgraded to Next 16.2.9 with React 19.2.7, added Tailwind CSS v4/PostCSS starter plumbing, and verified lint, build, and mobile CDP screenshots.

Investigated `npx skills` and the referenced `npx skills add vercel/next.js --skill next-cache-components-adoption`. The `skills` CLI is a real npm package from `vercel-labs/skills`; `vercel/next.js` currently exposes three skills: `next-cache-components-adoption`, `next-cache-components-optimizer`, and `next-dev-loop`. The adoption skill requires Next.js 16.3+, while this repo is on stable Next 16.2.9; npm dist-tags show 16.3 is currently canary/preview, not latest stable.

Checked for other relevant skills. Recommended now: `vercel/next.js@next-dev-loop` for runtime browser/framework verification, `vercel/ai@ai-sdk` for implementing the AI chat route, `vercel/ai-elements@ai-elements` for polished AI message/tool rendering, and `vercel/chat@chat-sdk` if the app expands into external chat surfaces. Already-available local Codex skills cover Next.js, auth, shadcn, Vercel storage, env vars, functions, observability, and deployment.

Moved the repo from stable Next 16.2.9 to the Next 16.3 preview track by installing `next@preview` and `eslint-config-next@preview`, resolving to 16.3.0-preview.5. React remains on the stable React 19.2 line, which satisfies the preview peer dependency. Lint and build both pass on the preview release.

Prepared the chat rebuild for publishing on a separate Git branch. The branch excludes the pre-existing `data/Herman.ts` change, keeps the public AI log in the app, and is intended to be reviewed through a GitHub PR rather than pushed directly to `main`.
