Shelf week for the Human Services Scorecard: I shipped a full Operational Dashboard shell — Attention, Summary, and favorability-aware trends — as the next chapter in how ThreeWill surfaces metrics that matter for human services and Senior Living.

Highlights​

• Built a new Human Services Scorecard Operational Dashboard SPFx shell — Attention + Summary panels, community comparison, KPI strip, trend destinations, weighted Sum rollups, per-location goal overrides, and WoW arrows colored by target favorability.
• Positioned HSS as the display spine for metrics that matter, with a path toward automated Financial / CRM / HR / EHR integrations that bring those dashboards to life for Senior Living and other human services orgs.
• Continued side work without separate Learn More posts: Memento Mori iOS 26 PNG freeze fix, Backseat Games Android solo-launch packaging, state licensing monorepo/ADO hardening, and a small knowledge-base hygiene script.

Follow-through week on a state licensing modernization kickoff: I married the architecture and estimating sheet into phased delivery docs, ran a gap analysis, and packaged 238 user stories as an Azure DevOps import pack.

Highlights​

• Built an ADO backlog import pack from architecture + estimating: living solution phases (P0–P10), a gap-aware picklist (214 backlog + 24 gap stories), hierarchical CSV under one endeavor Epic, and a generator script — Features as solution layers, tags for phase/app/source.
• Kept client project names, endeavor titles, and org paths out of the public write-up while preserving the real shape of the import (Epic → Feature → User Story).
• Continued adjacent engagement and product work (architecture trajectory docs; Scorecard SPFx polish) without separate Learn More deep-dives this week.

Kickoff week for a state licensing, permits, and inspections modernization: I bootstrapped the delivery repo with ThreeWill Engineering Standards so local and cloud agents share the same rules from day one — then used Cursor on discovery artifacts for a discussion-grade data model.

Highlights​

• Bootstrapped a new enterprise delivery repo with the threewill-engineering-standards submodule, product-specific AGENTS.md (submodule hygiene, branch + PR, Azure DevOps work-item linkage, ADO MCP), and Cursor Cloud agent instructions — standards that predate Cloud agents but still distribute consistent agentic behavior.
• Noted practice-wide adoption improving, especially on SPFx work (lighter rule surface, shared look-and-feel and React components), plus clearer Enterprise vs smaller/atomic sophistication levels with different requirements.
• Ran an AI-assisted discovery pass over stakeholder transcripts and legacy UI reference screenshots toward a kickoff data model (draft), including a location-first refinement with the team.

App Store prep week: Memento Mori got a Skia life calendar, brand-coin widgets, and Homol Works hub pages; Backseat Games shifted monetization for Solo Mode and finished Travel Bingo sprite art.

Highlights​

• Rebuilt Memento Mori's life calendar on Skia, unified the brand coin across widgets and in-app loading (including coin markers on weekly goals), deep-linked home widgets to tabs, and locked the build to iPhone-only for App Store submission — with screenshot prep, an App Preview video, and a new Homol Works app hub.
• Shipped Backseat Games v1.2 to TestFlight: Solo Mode is free, IAP sits behind Play online, Travel Bingo tiles moved from stock emojis to custom sprites, and marketing/privacy/support pages landed on Homol Works.
• Refreshed the ThreeWilly managed-services weekly canvas and hardened work-item autonumber / Teams draft signals.

• Memento Mori App Store Prep — Skia Calendar, Brand Coin Widgets, and the Homol Works Hub — Skia calendar, coin-marker widgets, App Preview video, and submission-ready hub pages
• Backseat Games v1.2 — Free Solo Mode and a Clearer Monetization Line — free Solo Mode, host unlock behind Play online, and Travel Bingo sprite art

Widgets got clearer, Backseat Games got a delight pass and Solo Mode, and Managed Services tooling kept moving — with public-safe notes on a client Dataverse hygiene win.

Highlights​

• Polished Memento Mori widgets (brand skulls, trimmed set) verified on device / TestFlight; App Store v1 docs will cover the full polished layout set.
• Shipped Backseat Games v1.1 delight + Solo Mode — update is live on the App Store with the new Travel Bingo and License Plate visuals.
• Hardened prospect phone matching and duplicate-merge reporting on a client Power Platform / Dataverse engagement (kept generic).
• Scorecard trend overlays and related web parts continue a strong shelf story — more posts ahead, including a public release.

A packed week across personal apps, Homol Works comeback work, and open-source releases — including the first public cuts of Ruddr MCP and Advanced Page Properties.

Highlights​

• Revived Memento Mori home-screen widgets on Expo SDK 55; Smart Record is active again and in final testing before app go-live.
• Brought Homol Works back online with a terminal theme, gopher logo, Builds page, and weekly AI-build drafts.
• Cleared an App Store blocker for Backseat Games, open-sourced Advanced Page Properties (SPFx 1.23) with a demo spotlight shot, and tagged Ruddr MCP v0.3.0 with an install-first public write-up plan.
• Advanced Managed Services shelf work: Scorecard metrics UX, MS Pulse packaging, and a DDS Referrals demo-reset pipeline.

STATUS: SIGNAL REACQUIRED · HOMOL WORKS ONLINE · OPERATOR: MIKE HOMOL

If you have been here before, the gap is obvious.

My last post on this site was Consult the Oracle in early 2023 — me staring at ChatGPT like it was the promised evolution of artificial intelligence, already wondering what it would do to coding, writing, and the shape of "thinking jobs." Then life got loud, client work stayed loud, and Homol Works went quiet.

The builder did not stop. The blog just did.

This is the transmission coming back online — and the honest recap of what the past year has looked like once Cursor became less of a novelty and more of how I actually work.
