Ship right, not just fast.
I build the harness AI follows to ship professional software.
I’ve shipped software in places where every change needs proof. Now I’m building the discipline layer that keeps it true to what you already decided. The full development lifecycle, orchestrated as a sequence of inspectable phases, not a black box.
The main thing I’m building
Shipwright.
An open-source harness that wraps a real software lifecycle around your AI agent, from the first requirement to deployed, tested, secured, compliant code. Every change stays traceable, tested, and yours to defend.
What I work on
Delivery discipline for AI-built software.
01
Shipwright
The harness and the Masterclass. Turning AI velocity into software you can actually control and maintain.
02
Claude Code
From fundamentals to power-user: how to run AI coding agents like a professional, not a gambler.
03
Everyday AI
Everything besides the code: content, marketing, ops, design, automation. All run by one person with AI, shown the way I actually do it, videos included.

Who’s behind this?
Ship right, not just fast.
I’ve spent 20+ years on the process of shipping software cleanly, including FINMA-regulated banking and digital-asset environments, where every change comes with proof that it is safe. Shipwright encodes that discipline so you don’t have to carry it in your head.
