SPOTLIGHTInventList
InventList is the public home for indie builders. Log every ship (releases, features, bug fixes), build Series with live embeds of your actual work, keep a journey dashboard, and share your story in one permanent place. Includes a CLI for shipping from the terminal, roadmaps, collections, and a weekly "What Shipped This Week" digest. Free forever, built for operators-of-one who ship in public.
A control plane for self-hosted Rails operations. One place to run, monitor, and maintain apps across mixed infrastructure - Kamal and Docker or native Caddy and Puma. Fleet dashboard, SSH execution, deploys, backups, alerts, and recurring jobs over servers you already own.
Operating procedures you can call, instead of documents you hope someone reads. Recipes as data, per-subject runbooks, stable names for rituals, and per-run evidence — so did-last-nights-run-complete is a query, not a guess. Ruby 3.2+, Rails 7.1+, PostgreSQL.

Gem
Point-and-click annotation tool for Rails apps. Click any element, describe what needs to change, and your AI agent reads and acts on your feedback via MCP. Screenshots with drawing tools, kanban board, author attribution, and notification hooks.
LocalVault
Gem
Encrypted local secrets vault with MCP support for AI agents. Store secrets once, inject them process-scoped into any CLI — agents discover names but never see values, with guard hooks that catch accidental plaintext exposure.
Permanent, shareable pages for AI-authored docs. Claude and other agents publish PRDs, specs, plans and roadmaps as living pages organized in Spaces and folders — with an MCP connector so docs are written and updated conversationally.
Agentic harness to build rails applications.
