THE LAB / PROJECT INDEX

Never really
finished.

Projects have more than one life.
This is where I keep track of them.

PROJECT 0012020 → 2026In progress

Illustrative cream desktop computer on a lavender plinth, with a plant, photographs, and a small purple cat. Concept artwork, not an app screenshot.

Miwl 2

An old Python desktop app, getting a second life. A local workspace for chat, summarization, article generation and paraphrasing.

Real projects, at their own pace. Plenty of room for what comes next.

OTHER ORIGINALS

From the archive.

Existing projects and possible directions to revisit. No rebuild schedule is set.

Original · Developer MVP
ClusterLens
A native MongoDB explorer for iPhone and iPad, with query, aggregation and results browsing over direct TLS connections. Connections use Keychain storage and explicit write unlock; find results are capped at 100 documents.
Swift · SwiftUI · MongoDB C Driver
POSSIBLE NEXT DIRECTION
Saved query templates and read-only inspection
Source on GitHub
Original · Working prototype
Orbit
A personal audio studio for recorded thoughts, focus soundscapes and short music sessions, with local notes and history. Compatible AirPods head-motion navigation and optional AI are implemented, with physical-device, audio, Music and live-AI validation still pending.
SwiftUI · Mac Catalyst
POSSIBLE NEXT DIRECTION
A simpler path from thought capture to focus session and reflection
Source on GitHub
Original · Native utility
Proximity Lock
A macOS menu-bar utility that locks when a selected Bluetooth device moves away, using calibration, filtering and a confirmation window. Presence detection depends on the device and permissions; the build is ad hoc signed and not notarized.
Swift · CoreBluetooth
POSSIBLE NEXT DIRECTION
Hardware compatibility guidance and clearer diagnostics
Source on GitHub
Original · Native utility
Keyboard Cleaner
A macOS utility that suppresses keyboard events after a countdown while leaving the mouse available. It uses a full-screen unlock and hold-Escape fallback, requires Accessibility permission, and is not notarized.
SwiftUI · AppKit · macOS 13+
POSSIBLE NEXT DIRECTION
Timed cleaning sessions and a notarized release
Source on GitHub
Original · Developer library
Snowmise
A TypeScript wrapper around the Snowflake Node driver, adding promises, async iteration, query deduplication, optional caching and row streaming. It needs a Snowflake account; version 0.1.0 changes cache expiry and instance isolation.
TypeScript · Node 20+ · Snowflake SDK 3
POSSIBLE NEXT DIRECTION
Cache observability, invalidation and practical examples
Source on GitHub
Original · Search prototype
Semantic
A Go and Python search prototype using sentence-transformer embeddings, MongoDB Atlas vector search and Redis-backed token records. Token issuance is unauthenticated and rate limiting is absent, so it is not production-ready.
Go · FastAPI · MongoDB Atlas · Redis
POSSIBLE NEXT DIRECTION
Caller authentication, rate limits and retrieval evaluation
Source on GitHub
Planned revisit · Details to follow
Diabetes Prediction
An iOS prediction prototype planned for rethinking; not a clinically validated diagnostic tool.
NEXT REVISIT
Planned for rethinking
Planned revisit · Details to follow
macOS Music Application
An earlier native music-player prototype planned for rethinking.
