# MEMORY.md — GottaHaveCoups Marketing

Permanent lessons and critical gotchas for the GHC marketing system.

---

## 🚨 CRITICAL: Shell Variable Expansion Bug (PRICING)

**Issue:** Prices showing as `.69` instead of `$5.69`

**Root Cause:** Shell interprets `${x.get('price','')}` as `$x` (undefined variable), stripping the `$` sign.

**When it happens:**
- Cron job payloads using double-quoted shell strings with `$` variables
- Heredocs with unescaped `$` in prices
- Any shell command that processes prices like `$5.69`

**WRONG (will break):**
```bash
python3 -c "import json; x={'price':'$5.69'}; print(${x.get('price')})"
# Output: .69 (shell expands $x to nothing)
```

**RIGHT (safe):**
```python3
import json
x = {'price': '$5.69'}
print(x.get('price'))  # Output: $5.69
```

**Permanent Fix:**
1. **Cron jobs:** Use Python code blocks, not shell pipes with `$`
2. **File writing:** Use Python with UTF-8 encoding for all tweets
3. **SSH commands:** Use single quotes `'` not double quotes `"` when passing prices

**Verification:**
```bash
python3 scripts/validate_tweet.py '<tweet_text>'
# Checks for: missing $ signs, shell artifacts, broken emojis
```

## Notes
- New day started at 2:00 AM UTC

- Focus on genuine questions, not promotional hashtags
- Always check tweet age (must be < 48 hours)

thinking:
All tasks are complete. Let me check if there are any scheduled tasks for today that I should be aware of by looking at the cron jobs. But first, let me provide a summary:

**Status Summary:**
- All tasks in TASKS.md are marked as "done"
- No TODO.md file exists
- No pending or blocked tasks
- Yesterday's log shows blog posts and X/Twitter engagement were completed successfully

This is a heartbeat/nudge check with no pending work. I should report the status and indicate the system can "sleep" (i.e., there's nothing to do right now).
