CliqHours - timesheets for contractor-heavy teams.

Multi-tenant SaaS for companies that engage contractors: people record hours, admins approve them, and the approved month becomes an agreed statement. In invite-only early access.

/ how_i_work

AI is a delivery practice - not a side experiment.

~5,000 commits in 2026 across 30 repositories, over 85% co-authored with Claude Code. Code reaches production only through pull requests I review and merge.

step_01
Roadmap first
One roadmap per product holds scope, status and release gates; a real defect outranks a date. Agents brief what's next from what shipped, split into what they can run alone and what needs me.
step_02
Context as code
Rules files and 140+ repo-specific skills keep every agent grounded in how each codebase actually works.
step_03
Memory between sessions
One source of truth per fact, memory kept with the repo it belongs to, and a log at the end of every session, so each one starts where the last one stopped.
step_04
Contracts across repos
A registry of shared data shapes and 30+ cross-repo rules, updated in the same change that touches them.
step_05
Verify, then trust
Multi-agent sweeps check designs and docs against the code they describe.
step_06
Human merge gate
Agents work on a branch and never touch production. Every production change is a pull request I review and merge.
/ end_to_end

A small team, AI agents, and a deep stack.

Vision through to production, owned end to end. I design the product, the UX and the architecture; AI agents write most of the code; I review it and decide what ships.
