Handwork

Engineering depth, from runtime to interface.

An independent software product built end to end, from the runtime underneath to the interface people work in.

Project type: Independent product
Role: Runtime and interface
Status: Publicly available
Website: handwork.sh(opens in a new tab)

A real Handwork session: it inspects the bug, edits one line, and the tests pass.

Overview

Handwork is an independent software product. It is a substantial build, and it is where much of my deeper engineering work happens.

My role

I am responsible for Handwork’s runtime and its interface: the systems that make it work and the experience people use to work with it.

What it demonstrates

Clients benefit from a studio that understands what happens beneath the screen. Handwork shows the ability to design and sustain a substantial software product, not only its surface.

Handwork: an AI coding agent for your terminal and desktop.

The Handwork docs: install, connect a model provider, and start a first task.

Need software with real depth?

If the hard part sits beneath the interface, tell me what the system has to do. We can scope the core before deciding what to build around it.
