HiddenBag V2 - RLS Bug Fix

Problem Found

  • hb_cappers table returns 0 results
  • Error: infinite recursion detected in policy for relation "hb_profiles"
  • RLS policy on hb_cappers references hb_profiles → causes infinite loop
  • Messages load fine (65) - no RLS issue there

Fix Required (Supabase Dashboard or SQL Editor)

-- Option 1: Disable RLS on cappers (they're public data anyway)
ALTER TABLE hb_cappers DISABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY;

-- Option 2: Or create a simple public read policy
DROP POLICY IF EXISTS "Anyone can view cappers" ON hb_cappers;
CREATE POLICY "Anyone can view cappers" ON hb_cappers FOR SELECT USING (true);

Status

  • ✅ Fixed - Matt disabled RLS on hb_cappers table

Alex Finn's Proactive Prompt (The Magic)

"I am a one-man business. I work from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep. I need an employee taking as much off my plate and being as proactive as possible. Please take everything you know about me and just do work you think would make my life easier or improve my business and make me money. I want to wake up every morning and be like, 'Wow, you got a lot done while I was sleeping.' Don't be afraid to monitor my business and build things that would help improve our workflow. Just create PRs for me to review. Don't push anything live. I'll test and commit."

Key Concepts Implemented

  1. Proactive Mandate - Added to SOUL.md
  2. Mission Control - Created TASKS.md as task tracker
  3. Morning Intel Brief - Configured with Gmail, AI news, Reddit, GitHub
  4. Model Strategy - Opus = brain, Sonnet/Haiku = muscle
  5. Security Mindset - No critical account access, watch for prompt injection
  6. Self-Improvement Loop - Interview self for unknown unknowns

  • Morning briefs with overnight work summary
  • Trend monitoring (X, HN, Product Hunt)
  • Competitor outlier video detection
