Layers compressed 13 hand-drawn dot illustrations into an 82 KB payload by quantizing coordinates and separating them into streams that expose repeated rows to Brotli. The result is 63% smaller than compressing the original floats, while typed arrays and an animation loop that sleeps when idle reduce rendering work.

A week with 16 always-on bots produced 78 merged pull requests, followed by $100 spent over a weekend largely on wakeups that yielded no useful messages. Missed notifications and unreliable follow-ups lead to an architectural argument for keeping routing, queues, and durable state in ordinary code, alongside a pitch for Builder's own framework.
