The Tools

From the lab
All documentation ↗

Tools I built because I wanted them in my own workflow: terminals, dev environments, process managers, and CLIs. They are young, useful in different ways, and shaped by the way I code with agents.

Roost Desktop app · Rust · Swift

A desktop terminal for running several coding agents without losing the thread.

A native macOS + Linux terminal that keeps Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and regular shells organized by project. Built on libghostty-vt, with quick theme/font switching, scriptable launch points, and early native agent integration.

$brew install charliek/tap/roost
Shed Dev environments · Go

Cross-platform microVM environments with an agent-forward design.

Run coding agents inside microVMs (Firecracker on Linux, Apple Virtualization on macOS) on your laptop or a fleet of servers over Tailscale. Build a standard base environment you can SSH into anywhere, with host-side credential brokering, local mounts, persistent sessions, and plans that can run unattended.

$brew install charliek/tap/shed
Prox Process manager · Go

The local process manager I wanted for agent-assisted development.

Start your project's processes with one command, then let you and your coding agent both watch and control them over an API: tail logs, inspect HTTP requests, restart one service. A TUI gives humans real-time logs with search; an optional mkcert-backed proxy puts services on friendly local HTTPS domains, even sharing one port across several projects, so you can stop memorizing ports.

$brew install charliek/tap/prox
Strix Terminal UI · Rust

A git TUI for reviewing agent diffs with first-class mouse support.

A git diff and staging viewer with side-by-side diffs, history, first-class mouse support, syntax highlighting, and theming, all in the terminal. It auto-refreshes as files change, so you can watch an agent's edits land in real time and stage deliberately.

$brew install charliek/tap/strix
Codelens Code intelligence · Kotlin · Go

Structural answers for JVM codebases, from bytecode instead of grep.

Fast structural lookups for a coding agent working in a JVM codebase: who implements this, who references this type, what this method calls. Answers come from compiled bytecode and the resolved Gradle classpath, not text search.

$brew install charliek/tap/codelens
Envsecrets CLI · Go

Sync .env files across your machines, with history and cloud encryption.

A simple, single-user CLI for syncing .env files across your own machines and sheds. Files are versioned with a git-like history and stored age-encrypted in a Google Cloud Storage bucket; status tells you whether to push, pull, or reconcile, and sync runs the safe action without silently overwriting another machine's changes.

$brew install charliek/tap/envsecrets
