I build terminal software and AI systems, mostly in Go. Lately that means tuios, a terminal window manager built for working next to coding agents. By day I'm a Senior AI Architect in Abu Dhabi.

From the blog

2026.10.01 460 characters that draw nothing tuios fences the text other programs write before an agent reads it. The fence removed 22 invisible characters. Tag characters, variation selectors and the line separator went through. What it removes now, and the one joiner it keeps. 2026.10.01 Crush reports to herdr, so tuios answers as herdr Crush tells herdr when it works, waits and finishes, and Collie drives herdr through its socket. Neither knows tuios. How every tuios pane came to answer herdr's protocol, and what that cost. 2026.10.01 Three flaky tests, and what they were hiding Nine tests failed now and then on CI in the last days of September. Two were product bugs, and the work turned up a third. A hook that waited on itself, a broken pipe that should have been an error, and a command line the shell echoed twice.
