The current batch of "building X bespoke just for me" is really lovely to see. Many of these tools are very much a bicycle built for one, and I'm not test-driving them myself, and _that's okay_. Not everything has to be a profitable enterprise--and seeing folks vibe up something that patches over a hole in their workflow or life is a nice upside of all the AI tooling. Note that I have no idea if this is vibed! It might not be! I just like the general theme of lots of pretty specific tooling.

I actually really like this! This is unique and cool. And it’s a n actual new take on something and I could totally see it working on some use cases I personally have atm. Even stuff like k8’s the whole thing other than like kube-api if I had time would just be the same binary as kubelet lol It would solve a ton of things
