projects

I built a custom Eleventy portfolio, taught AI its conventions through an expert skill, and eventually discovered what happened when I treated ongoing work as too small to need Context Layer.

I’m building Aerial as a trust layer for the donor-gamete industry: connected family, donor, and institutional workspaces for shared records, permission-aware networks, and evidence people can review and act on. It grows out of Family Shapes and is the current home for that work.

The early Notion-and-Observable plan for turning repository snapshots into a private portfolio dashboard.

App Growth Agent is a killed web-app experiment that asked whether the repetitive, awkward work of finding early Shopify-app users could become a measurable agent loop. The prototype connected lead discovery, qualification, outreach drafting, policy critique, human approval, sending, install attribution, value-event telemetry, and review prompting in one Next.js dashboard backed by a worker and explicit run traces.

Xyppy App LP and Support Hub is a Next.js marketing, landing-page, customer support, and app-documentation surface for the Xyppy Bulk Product Editor Shopify app. It should be treated as a sub-project of the Xyppy Shopify Merchant App record: the parent project represents the embedded Shopify app, while this repo represents the public education and support layer around that app.

Chronicle Visualizer is a privacy-first visual work-history project. It started with a real local Chronicle browser that indexed recent screen frames and persisted Chronicle summaries, then split into a public-facing Next.js scaffold and a private archive/redaction operating lane. The project is not just a screenshot gallery. Its product shape is a governed visual evidence system: raw frames stay private, written context is archived with images, public derivatives require redaction and review, and project/work-state labels remain inferred until corroborated by durable sources.

Codex Skills Library is the durable source repository for Maggie Lerman's custom Codex skills, custom local plugin backups, generated skill catalogs, and the public docs site that explains the workflows. The repo turns local agent behavior into portable, inspectable artifacts: each skill folder carries trigger metadata, instructions, references, scripts, examples, assets, and validation expectations, while the catalog tooling keeps the public docs aligned with the suite allowlist.

I built Context Layer, a Codex plugin that gives human-agent work durable project state: decisions, evidence, lifecycle records, checkpoints and a generated dashboard alongside the code.

A database-backed rewrite exploring sync runs, AI call records, snapshots, and per-project health views.

I began Family Shapes to explore family and donor relationships. This historical record preserves that earlier product and its screenshots; Aerial is now the current home for the work.

I’m keeping this Family Shapes archive as a historical snapshot of the earlier product and its original screenshots. Follow Aerial for the current project, design, and implementation.

A public record of AI-assisted work that began as an attempt to understand where my attention was going and evolved into a way of studying how I work.

I asked Codex to help me arrange art in my living room. It produced measured layouts, revised schemes, and a Figma playground, but I still found the visual design poor. I’m keeping the attempts here as an AI fail: lots of output, weak visual judgment.

Maggie Todo is a Markdown-first aggregate todo and context-layer repository for Maggie-owned work, personal follow-ups, cross-project manual tasks, evidence, and generated local dashboard views. It is intentionally not a live app or website; its primary runtime surface is a local static dashboard generated from markdown todo sources.

Maintain is a native iPhone app and backend scaffold for weight maintenance after loss or major body transition. The product is intentionally framed around staying inside a user-defined maintenance range, understanding short- and long-term fluctuation, and keeping GLP-1 medication context descriptive rather than prescriptive.

Research initiative evaluating a Masthope property acquisition with financing scenarios, operating cashflow, stress tests, and forced-sale outcomes.

An umbrella program for the dashboard automations and operator tools I have used to turn project traces into portfolio intelligence.

Multi Mailbox Ops is a private, local-first control plane for safe multi-account Gmail work from Codex. It preserves source-mailbox identity, removes ordinary mail sending from the V1 tool surface, treats message content as untrusted data, and requires frozen exact-ID plans, identity re-attestation, verification, receipts, and rollback for live mutations. Its two most developed product loops are guarded named-mailbox operations and durable scheduled monitoring/reporting across independently checkpointed mailboxes.

Exploration project for n8n automations focused on ecommerce operations, Shopify workflows, AI-assisted content generation, and process optimization.

A GitHub-to-Notion pipeline with AI goal synthesis, conversation capture, snapshot publishing, and a React dashboard.

The active operator-dashboard branch of MLNNA, converting repository activity and project docs into KPI-focused execution intelligence.

Digital product storefront with headless CMS content operations, Stripe purchase fulfillment, secure GCS download delivery, and supporting automation workflows.

RPS Digital is a digital-product commerce system centered on a public storefront plus an operational Shopify app and worker that generate product assets, manage releases, and deliver purchased files through secure expiring links.

Shopify AI Product Optimizer was a killed Shopify app experiment that tried to make product-catalog optimization measurable, reviewable, and reversible. The source app combined deterministic SEO checks with merchant-contextual AI suggestions, Shopify product updates, background jobs, audit logs, and one-click revert behavior.

Xyppy Shopify Merchant App is a Shopify embedded app for merchants and catalog operators who need to edit products and variants in controlled batches. The source repo represents the xyppy.com Bulk Product Editor / BPE app: a Remix + Shopify App Bridge + Polaris application with Prisma-backed job history, Shopify Admin GraphQL mutations, merchant help docs, billing/usage gating, and Render deployment definitions for BPE and BPE-preview.

Shopify Headless Storefront is the Rock Paper Scissors production storefront and operating system for Shopify-backed catalog, collection, product, cart, checkout-handoff, review, blog/article, feed, agentic-discovery, catalog-governance, and cutover-proof work. This reintroduction replaces the thin local fallback with source-backed project evidence and keeps the project attached to Codex chat 019e45cf-299f-7ae0-aff9-fef3a18f5d44, the blog audit and Anna Atkins remediation thread.

The Solo Mom Project is a Next.js resource, publishing, and admin platform for the single mothers by choice community. The public product combines a curated resource directory, taxonomy browse surfaces, contribution flow, blog/editorial publishing, and trust/claim surfaces. The internal product adds admin moderation, claims handling, resource editing, taxonomy hygiene, Neon-backed data workflows, and AI-assisted editorial/retrieval tooling.

Xyppy Print This is a deliberately small ChatGPT app prototype that turns an image into an interactive physical-print configuration. The current source supports image selection or upload, image-quality and crop guidance, recommended sizes, paper, frame, mat, layout, quantity, deterministic prototype pricing, a demo summary, and a non-transactional checkout handoff preview.
