Here’s what a self-running work harness actually looks like, receipts included. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/the-work-harness/ Fri, 14 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/the-work-harness/ Six weeks of shipping turned cairn from a wrapper around other people’s tools into a full work harness — a four-vendor AI review council, a portfolio board, a platform-native rebuild, and the honest answer to the question that review surfaced: who is cairn actually competing with? https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/four-tools-three-weeks/ Tue, 04 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/four-tools-three-weeks/ Four real products — a multi-cloud tag and storage tool, a resume tailor, an OKR tracker, and the planning system underneath all of it — built and shipped in about three weeks. What made it fast, what I got wrong, and what AI still can’t do for you. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/okrdokey/ Mon, 03 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/okrdokey/ A simple, self-hostable OKR tracker for small teams — spreadsheet-simple, one container, your data, with optional AI that coaches your key results instead of writing them for you. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/tagmanager/ Mon, 03 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/tagmanager/ Multi-cloud tag compliance and storage cost analysis in one container — scan AWS, Azure, and GCP, catch the tags that are missing or wrong, and see what stale data is costing you. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/tailor/ Mon, 03 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/tailor/ Paste a job description, get a resume and cover letter tailored to it — grounded in your real experience, written in your voice, nothing invented. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/cairn/ Fri, 24 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/cairn/ An agent project brain that plans your project, mirrors every piece of work to your real issue tracker, remembers what it learned, and verifies what it shipped — born a Claude Code plugin, now running on Grok, Copilot, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenCode, and Zed too. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/cairn-quickstart/ Fri, 24 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/projects/cairn-quickstart/ Zero to a tracker-mirrored project in about fifteen minutes — install cairn, wire up your issue tracker (including every step that happens outside Claude), and run your first phase. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/country-built-to-invent/ Sat, 04 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/country-built-to-invent/ Two hundred fifty years ago we didn’t just declare independence, we shipped a system designed to protect the raw materials of invention. From the Patent Act of 1790 to fusion ignition in a Livermore lab, here’s why American technology keeps compounding, and the founders’ quiet genius that made it possible. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/containers-a-means-to-an-end/ Mon, 22 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/containers-a-means-to-an-end/ Containers solve a real, specific problem — and somewhere along the way we started treating them as the answer to every question. Here’s the problem they actually fix, where they earn their keep, and when reaching for them is just cargo cult with a YAML accent. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/wiring-gsd-and-beads/ Fri, 19 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/wiring-gsd-and-beads/ How working with Claude reshaped my workflow, the two plugins I can’t work without, and the plugin I built — now called Cairn — to make them, every issue tracker I touch, and my context-mode memory agree on one source of truth. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/hello-eventually-consistent/ Fri, 19 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/posts/hello-eventually-consistent/ Why this blog exists and what I’ll write about here. https://www.eventually-consistent.io/about/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.eventually-consistent.io/about/ about
