Zerobox: A cross-platform, single-binary CLI for process sandboxing, offering file, network, and credential controls. It wraps commands, uses an MITM proxy for network blocking and secret injection, and leverages native OS sandboxing solutions.

A simpler, local, cross-platform alternative to VMs or Docker for sandboxing any command, specifically highlighted for AI Agents (e.g., OpenClaw) by preloading policy profiles and securely injecting credentials.
Zerobox directly addresses a critical security and operational challenge for developers: securely executing untrusted code locally. Its cross-platform, single-binary CLI simplifies sandboxing, offering a lightweight alternative to complex VM or container solutions for rapid development and testin...

`turbo3` decode performance for LLM inference on Apple Silicon (M1, M2 Pro, M5 Max), specifically addressing the 'decode cliff' at increasing context depths.

Achieving flat, high-performance `turbo3` decode ratios (0.90x+ of `q8_0`) across all context depths on Apple Silicon, minimizing performance degradation from memory access patterns.
This extensive analysis identifies a critical performance bottleneck for `turbo3` decode on Apple Silicon: a 'decode cliff' at increasing context depths, particularly severe on M1/M2, initially attributed to centroid LUT constant memory accesses. Profiling reveals the constant memory LUT is indee...

just-call.app – a WebRTC application for video calls.

No sign-up, no install, just a link. Positioned as a reliable alternative to FaceTime for specific connection issues.
This product addresses a direct user pain point: unreliable video calls with existing solutions. The 'no account needed, no install, just a link' model significantly lowers friction for ad-hoc communication. While initially built for personal use, this simplicity holds B2B potential for quick, se...

Memoir – a CLI for persistent memory for AI coding tools.

Gives your AI tools memory between sessions. Runs locally as an MCP server, works with 11 tools.
This addresses a critical limitation in current AI developer tooling: statelessness. Developers using AI coding assistants frequently re-contextualize their tools, losing previous session data. This creates friction, repetitive input, and slows down iterative development. The need to manually re-...

RQ4 (Request Context Fingerprinting) – an open specification for detecting browser-impersonating bots without JavaScript.

Analyzes whether HTTP request headers are logically consistent with real browser behavior, considering context, not just presence.
This addresses a critical security and operational challenge for online services: distinguishing legitimate user traffic from sophisticated bots. The 'without JavaScript' aspect is a significant differentiator, bypassing common bot detection evasion tactics and expanding applicability to environm...
