A 500-ad creative-testing grid, ad pipelines, and landing pages — shipped with a fleet of agents.
- Cranium — my external-brain / chief-of-staff agent
- Ad Grid — a 500-ad creative-testing system + pipeline
- House kit — the design system this site is built on
- Pawket — a small marketplace experiment
- Toggle — a tool still earning its keep
- …and whatever nerd-snipes me this week
Belly up on the rug, in the exact spot the sun lands, every single afternoon. Has never once moved for anybody.Sits on the back of the sofa like a supervisor. Watches me work, judges the output, contributes nothing. → ask me for the résuméProjects I killed — and why. Honest post-mortems live here. No project on this site gets a fake “coming soon”; the dead ones get a headstone instead.
Most of what you’ve seen in this house was built this way.It didn’t. There’s a ladder and a trap door, and that’s it.
Some things in a house don’t need to survive scrutiny — they just need to be there.

How I build
Claude Code and a fleet of agents, Astro on a shared design kit, ship-fast and verify-by-machine. But every one of them started on the pad in this nook, in pencil, sitting on the floor. There’s a clean page — help yourself.

The marker
The chart on the wall was drawn in this marker, and it gets redrawn more often than anything else down here. There’s a clean board next to it. Go on — draw something.

The mug
Black, no sugar, refilled more often than it’s finished. Half of what’s in this house was built between the first cup and the point where it went cold. Start it and work until the mug does.

The coffee set
Kettle, grinder, two mugs — one of which never gets used, which tells you how often anyone comes up the hill. Making it is half the point of drinking it. Set it going and don’t rush the pour.

Run in the morning, lift in the evening — same shape as the Bare block. Loads run off a training max of 90% of the tested lift. Paces come from the run PRs on the other board. The workouts are the anchors — if the easy volume is more than you’re running now, cut the easy days, not the Tuesday or the Saturday.
