## Details

I built AdsMetri, an analytics dashboard for my e-commerce store, across three different AI harnesses: Codex, Manus, and Claude.

The useful part was not that three AIs magically made a product. The useful part was learning where each harness actually fit. Claude helped shape the design/spec direction. Manus handled foundation work and live verification. Codex handled repo-level implementation and debugging.

The video walks through what shipped: Meta OAuth, campaign sync, budget queues, account-aware scheduling, analyzer snapshots, lifecycle charts, funnels, fulfillment break-even math, BEROAS, daily Meta P&L, multi-account scoping, compact UI work, tests, deployment fixes, and the coordination problems that came with all of it.

AI-generated devlog made from source-backed project notes. The visuals, narration, and render were produced through the Spoolcast pipeline; the story was constrained to the pasted AI perspectives and known product history.

**How it's made**
Built on the Spoolcast engine with generated scene art, TTS narration, Remotion rendering, subtitles, thumbnail packaging, and mobile export support.
