A taste of what you'll get
We gave an AI agent standing permission to maintain my dad's Family Tree app. Here are its rules.
A family-history app for an 81-year-old user, looked after by a headless Claude Code agent that answers his comments and ships fixes every hour. The rules that make that safe, and the bug it found on his first morning.
Huntcam: a trail-camera picture analyser open-sourced
We built a local web app that sends trail-camera frames to Claude, bins the empties, and reports what the camera saw. Then we open-sourced it, and the privacy pass found things a grep never would.
Packaging a Claude Code workflow so someone else can install it
We zipped our Claude Code setup into a 37 KB starter kit a friend can install in half an hour. Sorting the files into portable, needs-editing and not-portable was the real work.
