Changelog

What we actually shipped.

LevelSage is being built in the open, early, and this is the record of it. Every entry below describes something that is in the product today. Where a track is still marked draft — visible to testers rather than to everyone — the entry says so.

  1. Cybersecurity Foundations reaches four lessons, and Recall arrives

    Three more lessons joined Read the Evidence, the opening chapter of Cybersecurity Foundations:

    • Where it is protected — follow one message and find every point along the way where its words are still readable.
    • What the envelope still shows — a locked message still reveals who talked to whom, when, and how often.
    • The message that asks — the cheapest way past a lock is to ask someone to open it for you.

    That makes four lessons in the chapter. To be precise about what that is and is not: the chapter has no finale yet, the next chapter is still being authored, and the whole track remains draft — visible to testers, not to everyone.

    Recall

    Terms you meet in a lesson are now restated at the close and filed into your Notebook, and Recall is the round that plays them back. It draws at random from the terms you have actually filed, awards real XP, and counts a day of your streak — the first repeatable thing on the platform that does.

    It is deliberately not spaced repetition. There are no intervals and no scheduling; it is a round you can play whenever your Notebook has something in it.

  2. The Bakery gets its second lesson

    The price on the sign joins Everyday Economics. You post a price you cannot take back, then meet the morning you priced for — the point being that a price is a commitment made under uncertainty, not a number you tune afterwards.

    That is two lessons in The Bakery. The chapter ends there for now, and the track is still draft — testers only.

  3. Two tracks open for testers, one lesson each

    Two new tracks got their first playable lesson, both behind the tester flag while the curriculum is still being written.

    Cybersecurity Foundations opens with What crossed in the open? — you recover details from a captured message and work out how much a network can show about traffic nobody encrypted.

    Everyday Economics opens The Bakery, where you split eight hours between bread prep and coffee service and then try to find a price that matches buyers with loaves.

    Both tracks are marked draft, which means they are visible to testers and not yet to everyone. Completions are recorded on the server rather than only in the browser.

  4. Spot the Phish, a timed practice run

    A short arcade-shaped practice activity landed in the Practice lens. You get nine rounds across three levels — Warm-up, Pressure, Impostors — drawn from 27 authored scenarios. Every level mixes an inbox scan, a link check and a risky move, and the clock tightens from 20 seconds to 14 to 9 as the cues get subtler. Three hearts per level; a miss or a timeout spends one, and a retry restores the level without replaying the ones you cleared.

    The thing it drills is narrow on purpose: spotting the requested action that breaks trust, rather than the vaguer habit of distrusting anything urgent. Every choice is committed before its explanation appears.

    It is practice, not progression. It awards no XP, writes nothing to your journey, and keeps its resume state in your own browser.

Older work — the landing rebuild, Sage, the Atlas — predates this page and is not listed. Everything from here on will be.

The fastest way to understand any of this is to play the first mission.
