Iron Log
The next set, already worked out.
Workout logging with GZCLP coaching: the exercise, weight, sets, and reps are planned by the app. Apple Watch logging keeps the interaction short between sets.
Personal projects
Small apps.
A working system.
A timer for a solve. A thought worth keeping. A way back into a book. I’m building a collection of personal tools around the things I actually do.
Each app has a particular job. Together, they’re also a place to practice building, operating, and improving software with AI agents.
Six apps · One shared workflowCubeTime
Less reaching.
More solving.
A cube timer that reaches your wrist.
CubeTime keeps solves and sessions together. The Apple Watch app puts the timer within reach, so starting and logging a solve doesn’t mean returning to a laptop or phone each time.
- The hook
- A watch companion built for the moment you’re holding a cube.
- The work
- Session state and solve results have to stay coherent across the watch and the main app.
PodStop
Keep more than
a listening history.
A home for the thoughts that survive an episode.
New episodes arrive through RSS. A listening queue, quick notes, and voice capture make it easy to record what stood out. History, follow-ups, and a weekly review help bring those ideas back later.
- The hook
- Capture a thought while listening, then find it when it’s useful.
- The work
- Feed sync, mobile capture, and scoped agent access to episodes and notes.
Reading Buddy
Find your way
back into the story.
Characters, connections, and notes that stay with the book.
Reading Buddy keeps reading progress, quotes, words, and notes in one place. Its character map makes a complicated cast easier to revisit: people, places, and the relationships between them.
The hook A map you build as your understanding of a book grows.
The rest of the suite
Different habits.
The same care.
Ten-Week AI Challenge Tracker
Make room for deliberate practice.
A place to organize a ten-week learning challenge, track progress, and keep the work visible over time.
Workshop
One board for the work behind the apps.
Ideas become tickets, agents pick up scoped work, and changes come back for review. Its API lets different agents use the same backlog.
Behind the screens
Separate tools.
A shared way of working.
The apps solve different problems. Workshop keeps their development connected: one backlog, explicit tasks, and a place to review what changed.
Pip / Muse
Research, ticket shaping, and verification. Turn an observation into work that can be picked up.
Codex
Implementation in the repositories. Inspect the app, make the change, test it, and bring it back for review.
ChatGPT Work
Hosted build sessions. Another way to move scoped work forward, including away from the laptop.
The board is shared.
Access is scoped.
Workshop, PodStop, and Reading Buddy have agent APIs. They give agents specific, revocable permissions: work with tickets, read listening notes, or update a book’s character map.
That connects the tools without making every agent an unrestricted user. Code changes go through pull requests; I decide what ships.
The aim is useful software that keeps getting better through use.
