Field notes
Firsthand accounts of things I have built, broken, diagnosed and eventually made reliable. These are experience-led guides rather than generic summaries.
Hermes Agent · Windows
How to distinguish an installation failure from a provider outage, DNS problem, gateway conflict, profile collision or failed update—and repair the right layer without destroying useful state.
Microsoft Store · Publishing
What I learned using Python/MSIX, Electron/AppX and a hosted PWA across AI Monitor Tray, Artemis Lander, ParaBreach and Strait of Hormuz.
Obsidian · AI Memory
A search-first Markdown vault for durable decisions, project context and handover—without turning it into a secret store or a pile of duplicated transcripts.
Multiple AI · Coordination
Shared rules, handoff files, delegated specialists, independent reviews, notifications and durable evidence—the methods that actually work for me.
Anki Vector · Home Assistant
Hue motion, WirePod, face recognition, stale SDK connections, stale photographs and why stationary monitoring beat the more impressive mobile scan.
