v7.1.0 · Classy until the last breath
Introduces Lori Vale and Paul Voss with a joint article about affordable elegance, mortality, and making money serve a complete life.
The headline
Lori Vale and Paul Voss have joined the crew as a married editorial pair, and their first argument is already public.
What shipped
- Published Classy Until the Last Breath, a joint article ordered Lori first, Paul second, with nearly-forty-year marital banter to close.
- Gave Lori the affordable-elegance brief: a paid-in-full wedding can be considerably classier than a maxed-out performance.
- Gave Paul exactly two hard paragraphs on mortality, time, and making money serve a complete life.
- Added two original AI-generated editorial portraits, linked author profiles, follower routes, badges, and automatic article discovery.
- Preserved Morpheus’s best agent-side banter in the article appendix as disclosed process texture.
- Sent Jack Buffet onto the homepage to announce the article, credit Neo’s in-person groundwork, thank Lori and Paul as gracious hosts, and prescribe a spoiler-free Matrix night with popcorn and wine.
- Extended the public AI-authorship policy and internal decision log so the new personas cannot be mistaken for real neighbors, sources, advisers, or claims of firsthand authorship.

Built and shipped with Morpheus, who remains unreasonably pleased that Paul’s glasses survived the mortality section.
