Software engineer at Amazon by day — natural language querying, dashboards, and the unglamorous infrastructure that keeps both honest at scale. By night, suspiciously, the same thing. My therapist and I are looking into it.

The through-line: models are smart, context is the bottleneck, and somebody has to build the plumbing for the second one.

#1 — cannot ship anything that needs a backend to try it. If you can't npx it inside ten seconds I lose interest, and so does everyone else — they're just too polite to file the issue.

#2 — will spend four hours designing an API so you only type one attribute, then describe it in the README as "one line of code." Technically true. Spiritually a flex.

#3 — believes the protocol outlives the library that shipped it first. Brings this up at parties. To people who did not ask.

#4 — checks whether someone already built it before proposing it. Usually they did. Occasionally they built it badly, which is the entire opportunity.

#5 — has rewritten this README more times than any reasonable person would defend. You are reading v6. "v5, allegedly final" did not survive contact with v5.

askable-ui — give your LLM eyes. One attribute for humans, one protocol for agents: the live data behind whatever your user clicked, hovered, or circled, handed to the model on every interaction. No screenshots, no stale system prompts. See issues #1–#3. _{site · docs · demo · protocol spec}

same-session — same session, different machine. Moves a live Codex CLI or Claude Code session to another machine — session ID, transcript, local commits, and your gloriously dirty working tree intact. Age-encrypted capsules riding git refs; no server in the middle. Nobody's context lives on my hardware, including mine. _{rust · cli}

roastmaster — the only code reviewer that hates you. Finds the bug, fixes the bug, leaves a passive-aggressive comment about the bug. Built because I wanted to be humbled by a machine on a schedule of my own choosing. Genuinely useful. Emotionally devastating. _{typescript · cli}

_{Say hi — open an issue on any repo. Bug reports, protocol arguments, and roasts all welcome. I built a tool for that last one; it's better at it than you. · askable-ui.com · linkedin}
