Hi, I'm John

I build open-source infrastructure for AI-assisted engineering and self-hosted
automation. My flagship project (and daily use workhorse) is the agent-collab plugin, which governs AI agents from multiple vendors under a strict collaboration framework that no agent can bypass without operator authorization; the rest of my public portfolio covers CI runners, remote development, and home automation projects.

What your sponsorship funds

  • agent-collab — makes AI coding agents from different vendors (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Grok) work as one governed engineering team. Any agent can lead a session and delegate to the others, but none can approve, merge, or expand its own authority without independent review from another vendor's model. Every governed merge carries a written compliance trace, the runtime is signed, and unknown cases refuse rather than guess.
  • Portable-GHAR — Standalone ephemeral GitHub Actions runners for Linux Docker hosts.
  • VSC-RemoteSSH — VS Code tunnel relay and RPC tooling for reaching headless private hosts without direct exposure to the public.
  • YouTube-AutoEncoder — a lightweight headless encoder for automated live streaming.

How these projects are run

Sponsorship buys maintenance time: Dependency updates, security review, issue triage, and the unglamorous upkeep that keeps everything running.

Thank you

If one of these projects saves you time, your sponsorship turns that into more hours I can spend on them. Either way, issues, discussions, and PRs are always welcome.
