AI Supercycle Is Now a First-Class Action in the Sidebar

AI Supercycle Is Now a First-Class Action in the Sidebar

Release v1.0.78


What We Shipped

We renamed and repositioned the most powerful action in the platform. What was previously labelled Beast Mode — a name that was playful but told you nothing — is now called AI Supercycle and lives permanently in the sidebar footer, where you can always reach it.


Why We Made This Change

The old Beast Mode label had two problems:

  1. It communicated nothing. New users had no way to know it triggers a full multi-agent discovery supercycle. Most skipped it entirely.
  2. It was buried. Nesting it between Queue and other items inside the Build section meant it competed for attention with lower-impact actions.

The most powerful capability in the product deserves to be the most findable.


What's Different Now

New Name: AI Supercycle

The item is now labelled AI Supercycle throughout the sidebar and supporting UI. Where additional context is needed, it may also appear as Run All Agents. Both names describe the actual behaviour: 20+ specialised agents running in parallel to discover, build, and ship features.

Pinned to the Sidebar Footer

AI Supercycle has been promoted out of the Build section and pinned to the sidebar footer, alongside Settings. This means:

  • It's visible from every section of the product — Development, Sales, Marketing, Operations, and Customer Management.
  • It no longer requires navigating into Build first.
  • It sits at a consistent, memorable location users can build muscle memory for.

Hover Tooltip

Hovering over the sidebar item now surfaces a plain-English description:

*"20 agents discover, build, and ship features in parallel"

This gives first-time users an immediate, accurate mental model before they click.

Flame Badge for Active Runs

When an AI Supercycle run is in progress, a flame icon badge appears on the sidebar item. This means:

  • You always know whether a supercycle is running, no matter where you are in the product.
  • You don't need to navigate to the Build section or a dedicated status page to check run state.
  • The visual signal is persistent and unambiguous.

How to Use AI Supercycle

  1. Look for AI Supercycle in the bottom of the sidebar (footer area, next to Settings).
  2. Hover to confirm the action via the tooltip.
  3. Click to launch a full multi-agent supercycle run.
  4. Watch for the flame badge on the sidebar item — it stays lit for the duration of the run.
  5. When the badge clears, the supercycle has completed and new features, PRs, or releases will have been produced.

Technical Detail

These changes are contained in src/components/product-sidebar.tsx. No changes were made to the underlying supercycle execution logic — only the navigation surface and labelling were updated.
