A name becomes a direction.
The ThinkRun rebrand task was generated: a deliberate move toward a product about captured work, reproducible runs, and context that can travel.
task 0087Chapter 01 / the missing context
Agents could click.
They couldn’t see why.
Browser automation had learned the mechanics of the web. But the intent—the pauses, corrections, detours, and human judgment—vanished between commands. ThinkRun’s development became a search for a better unit of context.

The product recorded its own becoming.
The rebrand lands.
PR #691 merged. ThinkRun was no longer only an internal idea; the product had a new public frame.
PR #691The homepage turns recorder-forward.
PR #696 rebuilt the landing story around a recording and its resulting artifacts. The review itself caught dead controls, mobile overflow, and crawlability issues—then fixed them.
PR #696Dogfooding rewrites the front door.
PR #860 shipped a recorder-first homepage shaped by real recording. The feedback loop was no metaphor: ThinkRun was used to explain how ThinkRun should change.
PR #860Chapter 04 / receipts, not mythology
A product with a paper trail.

The artifact
Not perfect memory.
Useful memory.
A trail sturdy enough for the next builder—human or agent—to understand not just what exists, but why.
The next run starts here
Don’t describe the work.
ThinkRun it.
The browser is no longer just somewhere work happens. It can become the evidence, the handoff, and the beginning of what happens next.
