What we’ve shipped

When Selah reads your notes it identifies the ideas in each passage, and beliefs found there now attach to one of those same ideas — never to a look-alike from elsewhere in your library. The old matching compared a whole page against short idea labels across everything you'd written; almost nothing cleared the bar, so Belief Maps stayed nearly empty, and what did match could file under the wrong idea. Tested on real sermons, the new matching filed every sampled belief correctly.

A short list of reasons — including "Prefer not to say" — appears before the cancellation goes through at selah.so/settings/billing.

Selah reads your notes for the convictions in them and shows each one with the sentence you actually wrote. The machinery for this shipped weeks ago but was never switched on — nothing had ever called it, so no belief in the app had a quote behind it. It runs now, and it copies your words exactly rather than paraphrasing them, because a paraphrase is how "belief in Jesus demands an ethical standard" quietly becomes "Jesus is an ethical standard."

A note marked Book, Podcast, or Conversation, or one attributed to another teacher, is a record of what they said. Selah skips those before it spends anything reading them, so an author's convictions never end up filed as yours.

Editing a note rebuilds it behind the scenes, and beliefs drawn from the old version were left pointing at text that no longer existed — while still looking completely normal on screen. Removing a note's pieces is now one operation everywhere, so the beliefs drawn from them are always cleaned up with them.

If Selah read a note as your own and later you mark it a Book, a Podcast, a Conversation, or someone else's teaching, the beliefs it drew from that note are withdrawn. Re-labelling a note is you saying it isn't yours, and what Selah concluded from it should go too. The note itself stays, and stays searchable.

When indexing a remembered fact failed, the fact was kept but became invisible: the companion couldn't recall it and it could never become part of your Belief Map. Nothing ever retried. On our own data 105 facts were sitting in that state. Selah now sweeps for them and re-indexes them on its own.

A June refactor that unified those three pickers behind one <OptionSetPicker> component renamed their CSS classes to .opt-picker*, but a later merge conflict in #719 silently reverted globals.css back to the old, now-orphaned class names — so every dropdown built on the shared picker rendered as a plain unstyled list. Restored the .opt-picker rules.

Checkout couldn't always work out where you were, and without that it had no way to compute tax or finish the trial — the button just sat there. It now always asks for your billing address, so trial signup completes every time.
