- rust-connect A desktop-agnostic KDE Connect implementation in Rust: mutual TLS, a local REST API, and live interoperability with the stock Android app.
- pght: Pittsburgh hospital price transparency Five hospital files, 4.5 million rows, reconciled into a tool where every published figure re-executes from its own stored query against the live data. The four traps that required are their own writeup.
- PGHT Reports Chat and interactive reports over hospital price files, with WebMCP tools for browser agents.
- Fracture A 2012 Mozilla demo rebuilt into a multiplayer game that runs today, 3,161 tests behind it.
- Network tools A capture → visualize → analyze suite, built because ngrep, Wireshark, and tshark each quit at the hard part. netgrep + wiregraph (original, Rust), termshark (modernized fork). All public.
- codetest Six coding exercises in six languages, Rust through TypeScript, 968 tests. Language picked for fit, not comfort.
- deep-research-privacy A privacy-first research tool: Brave Search, zero data collection, parallel queries with cited output.
