Esports pioneer → data-platform founder → full-time nomad. Chairman of Awerti — the data layer under livestreaming and esports. 27 years of shipping, 10 companies founded, 5 exited, 100+ countries logged, no fixed base.

This account is the other half of that. Awerti is the business; everything here is the lab — small, sharp tools built to fix whatever broke that week. Usually on a plane. Usually over Starlink.

Most systems fail not from one big flaw but from a hundred small ones nobody bothered to name. Naming them is half the job. One small fix per day, across the portfolio — the compounding is the moat.

Agents & AI plumbing

• multicooker — run several LLM agents on the same task in parallel Docker sandboxes, then have other LLMs judge them. Uses your Claude/ChatGPT/Gemini subscriptions, no API keys.
• zvonok — give your AI agent a telephone. Self-hosted outbound calls (LiveKit + SIP + realtime voice), structured answers, spend caps, mandatory AI disclosure.
• claude-grok-plugin — consult xAI's Grok from Claude Code. Strictly read-only second opinions.

Networks that don't work

• dishwatch — Starlink dashboard straight from the dish's local gRPC API. Tells you whether the dish rebooted or your Wi-Fi died. brew install faeton/tap/dishwatch
• nearest-exit — measure VPN relays from your own network and rank them yourself, instead of trusting the provider's "recommended".
• vpnsocksify — OpenVPN/WireGuard in a container, exposed as an authenticated SOCKS5 proxy with an iptables kill switch.
• ip.unt1.com — IP echo + VPN/proxy detection. Plain text for curl, real HTML for browsers.

macOS things Apple didn't ship

• insta360-quicklook — Quick Look and Finder thumbnails for .insv/.insp, with LRV proxy substitution so preview is instant.
• mediaporter — put video on an iPhone and have it show up in the Apple TV app. No iTunes, no Finder, no cloud.

Media, travel, memory

• immich-my — sidecar ingest for trip-based media curation: audit EXIF/XMP, infer GPS and timezone, promote curated trips into Immich.
• wanderfill — import location history into NomadMania. Plan-then-apply, with instructions written for AI agents.

Games (where this all started)

• steamswitch — Steam account switcher for Windows with Dota 2 config management. No re-entering passwords or 2FA.
• steamcommunitx.com — swap one letter in a Steam profile URL, land on the matching Dotabuff page.
• dota2-macos-config-sync — keep Dota hotkeys and scripts in sync across Steam accounts on one Mac.

Web

• notionworker — host Notion pages on your own domains via Cloudflare Workers. Single file, or full multi-tenant with D1 + R2.
