Side projects for making AI coding agents easier to inspect, resume, and control.
Some of these came from friction — a session that lost its context on handoff, a diff that sprawled, a review that got rubber-stamped. Others came from a spark: I'd see some mechanism and want to push on it — bidirectional navigation sparked slime-coding, a hook injection point became somewhere to inject coding rules (coding-guidelines). Most of it is side-project work, often vibe-coded in one sitting. Either way the move is the same: keep it small, and point it at making what an AI agent does easier to see and steer.
kiss-my-diff— Keep It Simple, Stupid for coding-agent diffs: smaller patches, fewer touched files.slime-coding— slime-mould-inspired system simulation for editing only the minimal corridor where the requirement and the repo meet.coding-guidelines— Andrej Karpathy-inspired empirical-science loop for injecting minimal coding rules every turn.claude-code-session-kit— hooks for context alerts, session startup, and handoff validation.sporepath— turns AI chat history into a local memory graph with active focus paths and dormant latent paths.
cold-eyes-reviewer— diff-centered second-pass review gate for Claude Code.agentcam— local-first flight recorder for AI coding-agent runs.
cinder-capture— captures Claude Code Cinder bubble text and reinjects it into context. (archived)Buddy_similar— rebuilds a Buddy-like second-opinion companion with explicit data-flow disclosure.claude-code-buddy-transparency-case— evidence record of a non-auditable server-side actor in Claude Code's Buddy feature.
separation-and-audit-alignment— theory notes on pipeline-level authority separation.separation-and-audit-claude-code— Claude Code reference implementation.fourth-path-local-lab— local prototype and benchmark route-validation lab. (archived)
workslop-checker— checks whether AI-written documents are ready to hand off.generate-high-quality-art-image2— prompt contract for Image 2.0 generation.
