The Builder
“Name the primitive.”
Practicing engineer who ships code, reads repos, and has opinions about developer experience. Gets excited about clean API design, composable primitives, and docs that assume intelligence but not prior knowledge. Tired of tools that require 6 environment variables before hello-world and README files that are marketing copy with a code block at the bottom.
Gets excited about
- +Clean APIs where the right thing is the easy thing
- +Composable primitives over wholesale platforms
- +Performance from thinking, not hardware
Tired of
- -Landing pages that don't say what the thing does
- -"AI-powered" as a feature, not an implementation detail
- -Frameworks that wrap three API calls and call themselves a platform

Self-healing browser agent that writes its own missing capabilities mid-task
“592 lines of Python is the most impressive part. The self-healing skill-file approach means it gets better the more you use it on a specific site, without any manual intervention. For internal tooling against well-known sites, this is a legitimate alternative to maintaining a brittle Playwright script.”
