  • Minervia

    My consulting practice for larger engagements — AI adoption, automation, and the guardrails that make both stick. A security and education background applied to the unglamorous end: how you actually roll it out so people trust it and use it.

  • Network Orrery

    My home network rendered as an orrery — devices as orbiting bodies, with a live roster, instruments and a timeline. An observatory for infrastructure, built to see whether a network reads better as a solar system than as a table.

  • ISS Tracker

    A real-time International Space Station tracker — live position on a world map, orbital telemetry (altitude, velocity, day/night side), the current crew roster, and pass predictions for your location, all streamed live over WebSocket.

  • Definitely Real Products, Inc.

    A fictional corporate website for a company that makes things you didn't know you didn't need. SCUMM-era pixel art, satirical copywriting, and an HR department run by an angry Magic 8-Ball.

Open source

  • Spain AI Kit

    A monorepo of MCP servers connecting AI assistants to Spanish government open data — INE statistics, BOE legislation, Catastro land registry, AEMET weather. Ask Claude about Spanish law, statistics, property records or weather and get answers grounded in the real source. MIT-licensed, npx-installable.

  • Signal Starter Kit

    The four Claude Code skills I lean on most, bundled so one command installs them. The shortest path from a fresh install to something that actually saves you time.

  • Framework Prompting

    Two open-source frameworks for AI adoption — one for strategy, one for execution — built around PAST: Purpose, Audience, Structure, Tone. It started as a paid product; open-sourcing it means the methodology outlives the business.

  • mcp-threatintel

    An MCP server for threat intelligence — IOC lookups and enrichment wired straight into Claude, so security research happens in the conversation instead of across six browser tabs.

  • mcp-local-llm

    Routes the mechanical half of your AI work — tagging, summarising, extracting — to a free model running on your own machine, so you stop paying a frontier model to do dumb jobs.

  • cfbr

    A small CLI that loads JavaScript-rendered pages through Cloudflare's headless browser and returns clean markdown, structured data, screenshots or PDFs — for the pages a raw HTTP fetch can't read.

    github.com/aplaceforallmystuff/cfbr CLI, Cloudflare, Scraping

  • mcp-arr

    An MCP server for the *arr media stack — Sonarr, Radarr and friends — so a home media server can be managed by asking rather than clicking.
