Daybot is ranked number two in Canada, after Shopify, for making e-commerce stores. With a lot of AI-generated stores like Daybot's, we ran into the issue of the CSS sometimes not being up to standard. For example, the text and the background might end up the same color. I've also seen that race conditions often happen on the client side and are never caught in test cases, because they aren't tested under load, or because clients sometimes do actions that are just random. With AI-generated code becoming more popular, we thought that an AI agent that runs in the browser at runtime, is very ligβ¦

I read a lot on e-ink readers. Lately I switched to a very small e-reader and PDFs are ~useless on it. So I vibe coded out a quick Swift Command Line Utility that uses Apple's Native PDF, Vision and Intelligence APIs to scan, format, proofread and convert PDFs into ePubs. You can build the command line function for personal use, or download and install the Release. This installs as a Quick Action for pdf files in Finder.

Coding agents kept filling up my disk with stale worktrees and leaving branches behind, so I built Fresh to clean up merged branches and worktrees and switch back to the default branch after merging a PR. Then I added support for project-specific commands so I could clean up after the agents, install dependencies, build, and run the project in one action. I was tired of remembering a different string of commands for every project. Now for all my projects, itβs just one action: fresh.
