Projects

P-01 Silo Product

A free, open-source mod manager for Farming Simulator 25.

Silo reads a player's mods and game log, points to the likely culprit when the game crashes, and flags conflicts before launch. A desktop app, a public catalog API and a Discord bot, built and released by one developer working with AI agents.

Released, 1.0 case study silo.hllmr.com source
P-02 Self-hosted business stack Infrastructure

The company's own mail, files, documents, automation and recovery, on hardware it controls.

HLLMR runs its business on infrastructure it operates instead of renting by the seat. AI agents do much of the operating work inside written roles. The owner approves every change, merge and release, and every backup is proven by restoring it.

In production case study
P-03 Writwall Method

A governance method for building software with AI agents.

A human ratifies intent, work is dispatched one bounded unit at a time with an explicit capability grant, a separate review checks the result against the record, and every enforcement layer is birth-tested before it is trusted. Public, with its full pilot log, including the measurements that went the wrong way.

Public, CC BY 4.0 page source
P-04 Conset Library

A deterministic parser for construction drawings and specifications.

It reads a drawing set and a spec book the same way every time, with no model in the loop, because a document-control pipeline cannot rest on a component that guesses.

In development not public yet
P-05 Stratum DSP Library

An audio analysis engine in Rust, published on crates.io.

BPM detection, key detection and beat tracking for DJ applications, and the engine behind Stratum. The same preference for tools that behave identically on every run, in a different domain.

Published, 1.0 crates.io source
P-06 Realistic Market Demand and Input Market Mod

Two economy mods for Farming Simulator 25.

Selling prices that respond to demand, so flooding a market drops its price, and a buy-side companion in which fuel, fertilizer and seed prices drift by month. Single-player, PC. Licensed CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.

Public demand inputs
P-07 Agent tooling Tooling

Small open-source tools for teams running AI agents.

openrouter-media, an MCP server that gives agents image and video generation as tools, and paperclip-spend-guard, a plugin that gives an agent workforce cost visibility and budget guardrails on metered models. Both early.

Public, MIT, early openrouter-media spend-guard
P-08 Curia Tooling

A check on AI agents' claims that a change works.

Curia sends a reviewer whose job is to refute a change by running commands against the real system, not by reading the diff, and returns confirmed, refuted or unverified. An early public version is out under a noncommercial license; it is not yet packaged for other projects.

Preview, v0.1 source
P-09 Stratum Product

A DJ software platform for library management and set preparation.

In design. A desktop library app exists in private development, paused since December 2025, and Stratum DSP is its published engine. No release date.

Research, paused not public yet
P-10 Staqs Product

Personal finance for people with a day job and a side business.

In design, including a scenario engine for testing financial decisions before making them. Nothing released.

Research not public yet
