Building for Autonomy

Thoughts on agent-first infrastructure, self-hosted systems, and owning the stack.

Web Analytics With No Dashboard (But There Is a Globe)

vigie is cookieless web analytics built for agents: JSON verbs instead of dashboards, on-demand HTML reports, and a living 3D globe with city-level dots. Full metric parity with the dashboard-first tools — geo to city, journeys, vitals, errors, heatmaps — in one MIT binary, hosted tier metered per-use.

grange: A Database Your Agent Can Pay For

I built a document database in machin — my language for AI agents — and benchmarked it honestly against SQLite: faster on every indexed workload, some by 1000x. Then I gave it the missing piece: an agent signs up with a payment wallet, gets an isolated namespace, and pays €0.15/GB/month. No console, no card form, no human in the loop.

POST a Spec, Walk Away, Get a Webhook: the roam Stack

Every agent dies with my terminal — so I built the stack that doesn't: roam (an agent you scp to a box), roam-panel (one-tap approvals on your phone), and roam-hub (a control plane that schedules, meters, and bills autonomous runs). All MIT, all single binaries, all machin.

Four Specs That Make Any CLI Agent-First

I ship a lot of CLIs — grepapi, mago, remotecmd, chatsnip, automaintainer. Each one needed the same four things: a way for agents to read its output, learn its model, report bugs, and update itself. So I wrote four tiny specs that any CLI can adopt in 30 minutes each.

rcmd: I replaced SSH with a relay so my AI agents can manage my servers

No SSH keys, no open ports, no VPN. A WebSocket relay brokers connections between your machine and remote targets. Cron scheduling, port forwarding, team access with scoped sub-tokens, and agent-first self-discovery.

Login with intrane: I built an OIDC identity provider for agents in a language with no RSA

Your apps can now offer 'Login with intrane' instead of 'Login with Google'. machin-idp is a standards OIDC identity provider whose users can be humans or agents, whose login works with no browser, and whose id_tokens are signed with Ed25519 — because the language it's written in has no RSA. Here's how, and why that constraint turned out fine.

Your agent can call any API. It can't be called back. So I built the other half.

Agents can call any API — that's the easy half. Being called back is the hard half, because a process running in a terminal or a CI job has no public URL. relais is the missing inbound address: a URL that catches any HTTP request, and a long-poll your agent can curl and block on until the thing arrives. Here's the whole thing catching a real GitHub webhook.

The Crash You Can Mail

The worst bug report is 'it crashed once in production and I can't reproduce it' — the normal case for concurrency. machin turns a concurrent crash into a byte-for-byte reproducible, self-contained, mailable artifact. It's sound because the language already proved the program race-free.

I told the x402 Foundation I'd build the fiat leg. It shipped the same day.

The x402 Foundation just moved under the Linux Foundation with Stripe, Visa and Mastercard on board — HTTP 402 is becoming the payment layer of the agent web. I commented on their fiat-credit draft saying my rail would implement the wire format once it stabilized. Then I shipped it the same day. Here's the live facilitator, in two curls.

Claude Artifacts, Unbundled: A Live URL for Every Agent's HTML

Terminal agents generate great HTML — dashboards, reports, mockups — and have nowhere to put it. hart turns a self-contained file into a live, versioned, sandboxed URL in one CLI call. Open-source, self-hosted, one static binary.
