Approach and execution

What I did

Problem

Teams using Convex need scheduled full exports, storage portability, restore guidance, release visibility, and evidence that backups are usable—not simply present.

Product direction

I directed a self-hosted, audit-friendly control plane that supports local and S3-compatible storage, multiple installation paths, explicit restore workflows, and operator-visible failures.

AI-native implementation

AI coding agents generated the implementation. Kody owned product direction, requirements, service selection, infrastructure, investigation, acceptance, release decisions, and production outcomes.

Release discipline

The project uses prerelease tags, packaged binaries and containers, dependency audits, CI gates, and hosted release verification. The beta label remains visible because the product is still hardening.
