The check-in button opened a transaction form: how three device-QA bugs made bb-finance's Home gamification navigable
The three Home gamification blocks in bb-finance — Quests, Level, Streak — were pulling live data and doing nothing else. Tapping the Streak check-in opened the transaction form instead. Three bugs from the AnF device-QA round forced Phase N, which built the detail screens and routing that turned the blocks from decoration into navigation.
One PR, three game systems: why pure generators kept the ledger honest
Shipping streaks, quests, and levels as a single PR forced a specific architecture: pure generators with no side effects, persisted targets decoupled from quest logic, and celebration overlays computed after state transitions. This is the constraint that produced those decisions.
Real quests, broken buttons: how Phase C and N closed bb finance's behaviour loop
Phase C replaced mockQuests with a generator that reads real transaction history. Phase N found that the quest blocks were non-interactive labels and the streak's Check In button opened the wrong screen. Both sprints were necessary. Only together did they close the loop.
The accessibility gate that made stacking five motion effects into one PR survivable
Phase D of the Cursed Energy DNA landed sigil rotation, energy pulse, claim spark, level-up celebration, and streak milestones in a single PR alongside three other features. Accessibility review was a non-event — not because the PR was small, but because every motion effect owned its own gate.
Five animations, five accessibility gates: what Cursed Energy Phase D cost to ship correctly
Phase D of the Cursed Energy design system added five animated effects to bb finance: sigil rotation, energy pulse, claim spark, level-up celebration, and streak milestone overlays. Every one is gated by the SwiftUI Reduce Motion environment key. Gating from the start rather than retrofitting later cost extra environment reads on every animated view. What it bought was a WCAG 2.1 AA clean bill before any user encountered the animations.
