I have done something, and quite possibly, I will again.

Website Medium LinkedIn GitHub

Philosophy

I am an engineer, specifically, an AI specialist and vibe coder...loop engineer, or whatever they call it now.

I have a worked on a range of technologies and I have a tendency to develop in the open. I try to approach problems from strange angles and I use AI to help me kill bad ones.

I was once Chief of Staff (and engineer) at RBT Network. I am now the Chief Executive at the Billy Company where I daydream for a living.

First-Among-Equals

Project Stack Install
irregex The toolkit under a search engine, not a search engine. Linear-time regex core, trigram corpus, and the libirgx C ABI four bindings ride. Zig PyPI · crates.io
howmany Codebase analysis you actually want to read. Tells you what your code is, not how many lines. Rust TS crates.io · VS Code · brew · ext src · actions
gist My answer to ripgrep, a personal pet project. Indexed regex search that keeps ripgrep's flags, output, and exit codes. Warm queries land in microseconds. Zig PyPI · crates.io
@retrigger/core File watcher for webpack and Vite. SIMD hashing past 5GB/s, sub-5ms events. Rust Zig npm
bldr Polyglot build system. 28 language handlers, work-stealing scheduler near-linear past 64 cores, hermetic sandboxing. D crates.io · brew · site
callosum-dsl A DSL for AI personalities. Compiles .colo files into prompts that measurably change behavior. OCaml Python PyPI
sheng Proves a document cannot match a regex before an engine reads it. Sound one way; it may pass a non-match, never reject a match. Rust crates.io
stampede-cache Async caching with request coalescing. Kills the thundering herd. Python C PyPI

Equals

Project Stack Install
relate Code similarity by compression. Near-duplicates, clone families, and where a pasted snippet came from. No embeddings, no vector database. Zig PyPI · crates.io
blast What actually breaks if you change this symbol. Dependents, dependencies, twins, and the comments that go stale. No graph to rebuild. Zig PyPI · crates.io
brigade Shard-aware Zig test runner. Your suite is not slow, it is serial. Zig zig fetch
dei God class and god method detector. Coupling, circular dependencies, JSON out for CI. Rust crates.io · brew
krnchr File aggregator for AI context. Feed the model what matters. Rust crates.io
toolcase Type-safe tool framework for AI agents. Pydantic generics, monadic results, MCP and HTTP servers. Python PyPI
sitemind AI-facing manifests for your website. Go npm
qgit Quick git workflow optimizer. Python PyPI

The Zig ones live under The Billy Company, where I do the open-source half of Billy. Also on Homebrew: builder.
