# Loopi v0.1 Initial Feedback Report

Date: 2026-06-15
Version: `loopi_v0_1`
Status: active seed version

## Data Snapshot

The feedback database is connected and ready. At launch, the version has no real visitor feedback yet.

- Real feedback count: 0
- Average score: not available yet
- Top tags: not available yet
- Visual asset: static seed image ready, sprite sheet planned

## Current Diagnosis

Loopi v0.1 is a seed version. The goal is not to make the final mascot immediately, but to validate whether a professional AI pony companion fits `yuanzehua.me` without distracting from Zehua's own identity.

The initial static image is intentionally treated as a seed asset. It is acceptable for first feedback collection, but later candidates should reduce any childish or franchise-cartoon feeling while preserving warmth.

## Strengths To Preserve

- Personal origin: zodiac horse connects the pet to the site owner.
- Strong system story: the mascot itself is an evaluation and iteration object.
- Clear product value: feedback creates a visible loop instead of a static decorative asset.

## Risks To Watch

- The pet could feel too childish if expression, eyes, or proportions drift toward toy-like styling.
- It could weaken professional credibility if it becomes too game-like.
- It could feel generic if it loses the pony identity or personal-brand explanation.

## Next Iteration Strategy

Wait for initial feedback. If feedback volume is still low, use simulated visitor reviews before generating the first visual candidates.

Recommended candidate lanes:

1. Friendly Signal: improve warmth and first impression.
2. Professional Finish: reduce toy-like risk and improve credibility.
3. AI Product Cue: strengthen AI-native/product-minded feeling.

## Decision

Keep `loopi_v0_1` active. Generate candidates only after enough real feedback, or after the first simulated review pass.
