What it is
Types text char-by-char - bypasses Google Docs history.
Version history
Straight from the project’s own card data — what each version added.
Invisible app.
Fixed: launch notification.
What broke, and what I’d change
Not written yet. This is the part only I can write — what actually went wrong, and what I’d do differently. It lives in builds/reflections/macro-typer.md (see _TEMPLATE.md); as soon as that file has words in it, this section fills in on the next build.
Everything else on this page — the spec, the version history, the file counts — is generated from the project’s own build notes and files, so nothing here is guesswork.
