DEV TOOLS

Chroxy

Control your AI coding agents from anywhere — monitor sessions, approve permissions, and orchestrate Claude Code, Gemini, and Codex remotely.

Captured against Chroxy’s Maestro mock-fixture rig (hence the “Mock Session” chip), not a live daemon.

Node.js WebSocket React Vite React Native Tauri Cloudflare Tunnel TweetNaCl

Chroxy is a self-hosted daemon that bridges remote clients to local AI coding CLIs over a secure Cloudflare tunnel. It gives every session a synchronized chat UI and full terminal view, with pluggable providers for Claude Code, Gemini, and Codex behind one WebSocket protocol. Mobile, desktop tray, and web dashboard clients all speak the same end-to-end encrypted contract.

▸ Pluggable Providers: Claude SDK/CLI/TUI, Gemini, Codex, and Docker variants behind one contract

▸ End-to-End Encryption: X25519 and XSalsa20-Poly1305 over an untrusted tunnel with forward secrecy

▸ Two Views One Session: markdown chat UI and xterm.js terminal on the same connection

▸ Container Isolation: sandbox, Docker, and git-worktree session isolation with resource limits

▸ Resilient by Design: supervisor auto-restart, auto-reconnect state machine, and push notifications

▸ Multi-Client: React Native mobile, Tauri desktop tray, and bundled web dashboard

MACOS

DockKeeper

Free, open-source macOS utility that keeps your Dock on the edge and display you chose

The macOS Dock displaced to the left edge, then snapping back to the bottom edge

Displacement simulated for the demo (defaults write); the sub-two-second snap-back is the real app.

Swift AppKit CoreDock API Homebrew

macOS loves to relocate the Dock after sleep or display changes. DockKeeper watches for those events and puts it back on the edge and display you chose — live, with no Dock restart and no flicker. Signed, notarized, and in public beta.

▸ Live repositioning: moves the Dock through the CoreDock API — no killall Dock flicker

▸ Event-driven: reacts to sleep, wake, and display changes instead of running a polling loop

▸ Nothing on trust: no telemetry, no network code — CI fails the build if a networking symbol appears in either binary

▸ No required permissions: one optional feature asks for Accessibility, and only if you turn it on

MCP

Repo Memory

MCP server that gives coding agents persistent repository memory — cut repeated file reads, tokens, and latency.

TypeScript Node.js 20+ MCP SDK SQLite better-sqlite3 Vitest ESM

An MCP server that gives AI coding agents persistent, structured memory about a codebase. It caches file summaries and re-reads only files that actually changed via SHA-256 hashing, cutting the tokens agents waste re-reading code they have already seen. Exposes 13 tools spanning summaries, dependency graphs, task memory, and token telemetry.

▸ Token Savings: roughly 3.6x summary-to-file compression, sustained from 10 to 200 files

▸ Stale-Proof Cache: SHA-256 hashing auto-refreshes changed files, never serves stale data

▸ 13 MCP Tools: summaries, change detection, dependency graphs, task memory, telemetry

▸ Cross-Turn Memory: task and session persistence survives context-window resets

▸ Multi-Language: regex summarizers for TypeScript, Python, Go, and Rust

▸ Measured Savings: built-in telemetry proves tokens kept out of the context window

DEVOPS

Repo Relay

Discord bot that gives every pull request one live discussion thread — CI, reviews, and releases in context, not notification spam.

A pull request's Discord thread: embed, in-thread CI updates, and merge notice

TypeScript Node.js discord.js better-sqlite3 GitHub Actions SQLite Discord API ES2022

A standalone GitHub-to-Discord integration bot packaged as a composite GitHub Action. It posts one rich embed per pull request with an attached thread, routing pushes, CI status, reviews, and merges into that thread, and also relays issues, releases, deployments, and security alerts to dedicated channels. SQLite state keeps embeds updating across one-shot workflow runs.

▸ Composite GitHub Action: drops into any repository's workflow with no server to host

▸ One-line install: npx blamechris/repo-relay init scaffolds the workflow with an interactive wizard

▸ Threaded PR model: a single embed plus thread holds a PR's entire lifecycle

▸ Piggyback review detection: surfaces Copilot and agent-review despite GITHUB_TOKEN event limits

▸ Persistent state: SQLite WAL store survives self-hosted and cached GitHub-hosted runners

▸ Broad event coverage: 12 GitHub events spanning PRs, CI, issues, releases, deployments, and security alerts

RESEARCH

CareBridge

Research platform for cross-specialty clinical safety — rules engine, explainable AI oversight, synthetic patient scenarios.

TypeScript Turborepo Fastify + tRPC Next.js 15 Drizzle + PostgreSQL BullMQ + Redis Zod Claude API

CareBridge is a research platform for cross-specialty clinical safety. Every clinical data mutation flows through an event queue where a deterministic rules engine and an LLM review evaluate the patient's full picture — not just the latest chart entry — and surface cross-chart inconsistencies for clinician review. The system is engineered to stay within the FDA non-device CDS boundary with HIPAA-grade PHI encryption and a tamper-evident audit trail. Every patient in the system is synthetic — no real patient data is used.

▸ Event-driven oversight: every chart change is reviewed across specialties asynchronously via BullMQ

▸ Hybrid review: deterministic rules evaluate instantly, an LLM review handles nuanced cases

▸ Compliance by construction: non-device CDS posture, 7-year append-only audit log, AES-256 PHI encryption

▸ Versioned clinical prompts: golden-eval harness and a formal sign-off process guard prompt changes

▸ FHIR R4 interoperability: URL-form identifier namespace built for Epic/Cerner ingestion

▸ TypeScript monorepo: Turborepo and pnpm across shared packages, services, and Next.js portals

MACOS

Aeolus

Free, open-source macOS fan control and thermal monitoring for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs

Monitor window — live readouts of real SMC sensor data.

Swift SwiftUI SMC IOKit

Thermal monitoring for Macs with the safety story put first. Monitoring ships today; the fan-control half named in the title is in development, gated behind a safety subsystem — the current helper is read-only and refuses the write path by design.

▸ Live readouts: fans, temperatures, and power from real SMC data in a Monitor window and the menu bar

▸ Safety first: control is in development behind a safety subsystem — nothing writes to hardware yet

▸ Read-only by contract: the helper refuses write operations, enforced by a tripwire test

BROWSER

duskwright

Dark mode for Chrome that never writes to the page — a fork of Dark Reader with a CI-enforced non-destructiveness guarantee.

Fixture page with duskwright on — the editor’s serialized document model is byte-identical with the extension on or off.

TypeScript Chrome MV3 CSS

A Dark Reader fork built around one guarantee: the extension styles the page without ever mutating the page’s own content. Early development — the element picker and per-scope rules are on the roadmap, not shipped.

▸ Never writes to the page: the purity suite verifies the editor’s serialized document model stays byte-identical

▸ CI-enforced: the purity baseline is zero known violations — a regression fails the build

▸ Honest fork: Dark Reader attribution and license preserved upstream-style

ROGUELIKE

Rah6 — Roll a Hard 6

Balatro-Leaning Co-op Craps with Real-Casino Bet Fidelity

TypeScript React Vite Express WebSockets PostgreSQL Vitest npm Workspaces

A co-op craps game where a deck-builder chip/joker layer sits on top of a fully casino-faithful table. The whole game is built on a pure, deterministic TypeScript reducer over JSON-serializable state — the same property that makes online co-op, save/resume, replay, and deterministic tests one problem solved once.

▸ Pure Deterministic Engine: Seeded-RNG reducer with no I/O, no clocks — JSON round-trips losslessly by contract

▸ The Purist Test: Strip every chip and the table is faithful real-money craps — enforced mechanically by the type system, not convention

▸ Full Casino Bet Catalog: Every bet at real-casino payouts (pass/odds, come, place, buy/lay, props, hops, fire, ATS, repeaters)

▸ Roguelike Layer: Runs, antes, rarity-weighted chip shop, bet leveling, shooter rotation — the Balatro skin on top of the math

▸ Authoritative Online Architecture: Server-run reducer, per-bettor token auth, live lobby join + spectating over HTTP + WS

▸ 1000+ Tests: Deep engine coverage of casino payouts, determinism, and the chip contract, plus a real-browser Playwright smoke

Technical Highlights: A strict one-way layered monorepo (pure engine → authoritative server → React client). The chip contract is fenced at all three seams — a compile-time discriminated union plus two runtime guards — so the deck-builder chaos can never break the casino math.

MED TECH

MedLens

Capture medical care, end to end.

React Native Expo TypeScript SQLite ML Kit OCR Expo Router Victory Native Jest

A local-first medical tracking app for patients and family caregivers. Photograph hospital artifacts like IV bags, lab printouts, and vitals monitors, then on-device OCR turns them into a structured, editable timeline that trends over weeks of treatment. Everything stays on the device, and clinical interpretation is firewalled out by design.

▸ Local-First Privacy: all records in on-device SQLite with no server holding medical data

▸ Tiered OCR Pipeline: on-device extraction by default, opt-in cloud tiers for higher accuracy

▸ Context-Aware Trends: coloring keyed to each metric's medically good direction, not just up or down

▸ SaMD Firewall: capture-only patient app deliberately separated from clinician-side interpretation

▸ Lock-Screen PII Rules: notification bodies stripped of patient identifiers by default, pinned by tests

▸ Feature-complete: five design phases complete across capture, timeline, and trends

FAMILY

Letters to Loved Ones

Staying close to the people you love, in life and after loss

React Native Expo TypeScript Supabase Postgres SQLCipher Zustand NativeWind

A family app organized around four tracks for daily reflection, shared one-to-one and group prompts, and a grief-sensitive memorial experience. It is offline-first, private by default, and built so its mechanics soften automatically after a loss rather than punishing absence. The most delicate system, a server-enforced death-transition flow with an immutable audit log, protects users against premature or malicious memorialization.

▸ Four-track model: Personal, Pairings, Family Spaces, and decaying Memorial Candles

▸ Grief-sensitive design: streaks soften on loss, candles decay, absence is never punished

▸ Death-transition state machine: dual-path memorialization with cooldown, objection, and audit log

▸ Offline-first architecture: SQLCipher-encrypted local cache with last-write-wins sync

▸ Privacy by construction: row-level security, client-side encryption, signed-URL media, no ad model

▸ Purpose-built economics: bereavement freeze and a one-time Perpetual Memorial endowment

NAVAL

Sovereign Storm

Turn-based naval combat where every captain plans in secret and the sea resolves it all at once.

TypeScript Phaser 3 Colyseus Node.js Vite pnpm WebSocket

A browser-first, multiplayer, turn-based naval blockade game built as a pnpm monorepo. Captains plan moves and cannon fire simultaneously, and a server-authoritative engine resolves each round into a single deterministic replay so no two players ever desync. Ships five distinct modes spanning team PvP, co-op expeditions, a boss fight, and free-for-all.

▸ Server-Authoritative Netcode: one simulation ships a full replay, guaranteeing zero client desync

▸ Five Match Modes: Blockade, Voyage, Hunt, Free-for-All, and the themed Odyssey expedition over one engine

▸ Simultaneous-Turn Combat: secret planning plus deterministic resolution with ship-push, ramming, and shot-size damage

▸ Data-Driven Modes: a strategy registry lets new modes and themed expeditions ship as data, not engine branches

▸ One-Command Hosting: builds, serves, and opens a Cloudflare tunnel for zero-config co-op sessions

MESSAGING

explAIn

Two-person messaging where LLMs help each party say what they mean.

Expo React Native NativeWind Supabase Postgres Vercel AI SDK TypeScript Turborepo

A one-to-one messaging app where every conversation has three voices: you, a private LLM advisor that helps refine your drafts, and a shared persona-driven mediator visible to both parties. Its non-negotiable rule is transparency: every transformation an LLM makes is visible to the people it affects. Personas range from a passthrough Moderator to a veto-capable Judge and a Dungeon Master that authors its own messages.

▸ Transparency contract: every LLM transformation is visible to the parties it affects

▸ Five mediator personas: distinct behaviors, not just prompts, switchable mid-thread

▸ Private advisor vs shared mediator: a load-bearing visibility boundary enforced by RLS and edge gates

▸ Cross-platform: one Expo codebase for iOS, Android, and web

▸ Provider-agnostic LLM layer: pluggable model providers, framework-free for a future bring-your-own-key variant

▸ Active/observer roles: structured-conversation asymmetry made a first-class primitive
