About Us

We build tools that make developers' lives easier — developer-environment automation, AI coding-agent tooling, and the small sharp command-line tools we reach for every day. We care about software that is ethical, user-centric, and a genuine pleasure to use.

A few principles guide everything we ship:

  • Simplicity — intuitive tools that cut complexity and save time.
  • Efficiency — automate the repetitive so humans do the interesting work.
  • Ethical software — protect user data and privacy by default.
  • Community — build in the open, for developers, with developers.

"The best way to predict the future is to invent it." — Alan Kay

🛠️ Developer environment

Bootstrap and maintain a machine the way you like it.

  • set-me-up — a comprehensive dotfiles and system-configuration framework for macOS and Debian/Linux.
  • Sensible defaults for the tools you live in: bash · zsh · fish · nvim · tmux · macos

⚡ CLIs & tools

Small, focused command-line tools.

  • configsync — sync macOS app settings across machines.
  • gh-identity · awsw — per-directory GitHub identities and fast AWS/EKS context switching.
  • glimpse · yeet — a browser-based git diff viewer and a terminal macOS app uninstaller.
  • fugue · prr — a ghost mode for you AI coding agents, and run AI code reviews on your PRs.
