🚀 Projects

What I actually have pinned and what I still maintain. Most of the current work is local-first: agents you run yourself, a control surface for them, and a Pi desktop that is not a toy.

🚀 Projects

Local-first tools: coding agents, a control surface for them, and Raspberry Pi desktop setup.

Project Stack Description
Raven Rust Privacy-first coding-agent harness. Single binary, works with Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
Hearth Rust Local control surface for Raven, Codex, and Grok on Linux and Windows.
Pimarchy Shell Pi OS Lite → Hyprland desktop (Omarchy-style). Docs.
sysmetrics-mcp Go MCP server for Linux system metrics (Pi-friendly).
Straw Go Folder-watching file automation with Charm TUI + daemon.
fastapi-react-starter TS / Python FastAPI + Postgres + React 19 starter template.

Also: Ravenwood VS Code theme, Aurora Flow new-tab extension, EdgeShield, homelab-template.

🔒 Private work

Some agent, client, and GIS tooling stays private. If you want to talk shop or a contract, email or LinkedIn is fine.
