## ⚡ welcome to the consequences of my curiosity

Most repositories here started with a completely reasonable question:

### *"wait... can I actually build that?"*

<br>

The answer is usually:

**yes.**

The second answer is usually:

**this is getting slightly out of hand.**

<br>

AI agents, infrastructure, developer tools, SaaS, financial systems,  
game experiments and whatever seemed like a good idea that week.

I don't really have a niche.

**I have a GitHub account and poor resistance to interesting ideas.**

## 🧪 current situation

🤖 giving AI agents tools and then trusting them suspiciously quickly

🔌 connecting things through MCP because apparently everything needs an MCP server now

⚙️ building APIs, workers and queues until the architecture diagram becomes concerning

📈 occasionally allowing code to communicate with financial infrastructure

🌐 turning random thoughts into SaaS projects

🎮 making games because normal software apparently wasn't enough

🐧 convincing Linux machines to participate in all of the above

<br>

**some people collect hobbies.**

**I collect unfinished architecture diagrams.**
