Uses / Operating Environment

Systems I actually use.

Real tools, real workflows, real operational constraints. Optimized more for clarity and durability than maximal complexity.

Hardware

Execution surfaces.

MacBook Pro

Planning, reviews, writing, architecture decisions, repo coordination, and creative work.

ASUS NUC / Ubuntu

Local server workloads, heavier validation, Docker services, observability tooling, and long-running systems.

Fold + Flip workflow

Flip for mobility and capture. Fold for longer-form review and systems navigation.

Workflow doctrine

Small surfaces. Clear loops.

repo-doctrine.txt

one terminal tab per repo

github is source of truth

prefer additive changes

ship smaller than ambition

operating-principles.md

durable defaults
traceable decisions
review before expansion
systems should explain themselves

Tooling

Current stack.

Next.js TypeScript Docker Grafana Prometheus Tailscale GitHub Actions VS Code Cursor Obsidian Airtable Workday Adaptive Dynamics 365 FloQast Ramp TIDAL

Current direction

Building systems that survive contact with reality.

Most current work sits somewhere between operational tooling, governance systems, creative infrastructure, and decision-support surfaces.
