Fail loud
A system that dies quietly is worse than one that crashes, because nobody comes to fix it. Everything I build reports its own state — health endpoints, status pages, a bot that tells me before a user has to.
The parts come documented. The seams don't. That's my trade.
Anyone can saw through bone. The whole trade is knowing where the joint is.
The docket
Everything here is live right now, and you can click it.
01
aal-asim
Live
A full storefront I built instead of renting one — WhatsApp ordering, cash and InstaPay, and an admin panel written from scratch.

Otrujjah
Live
My Arabic e-learning store. Paid courses, quizzes, right-to-left done properly rather than mirrored and hoped for. I own and run it.

Bash
Live
A Telegram assistant that stays up by refusing to depend on anything paid: six free model providers behind a router that cools one down and reaches for the next.

MacTune
Open source
A macOS diagnostic and maintenance CLI, installable from my own Homebrew tap. Written for an 8 GB M1 that had to keep up with me.

Self-healing CI
Live
A pipeline that reads its own failures and repairs them, with a dashboard so you can watch it happen instead of trusting me that it does.

House rules
Five things I don't negotiate about.
Free tier or it doesn't ship
No credit card. That isn't a phase, it's the design constraint — and it's why I know exactly where the edges of Cloudflare, Neon and every free model provider are.
Never trust the client with money
Totals get recomputed on the server, always. A price that arrives from the browser is a suggestion, not a fact.
Build for where you actually are
Netlify and Vercel domains don't resolve where I live, so I don't build on them. I pick rails that work in Egypt first and everywhere else second — which turns out to be a good habit anywhere.
Ship, then sharpen
Small steps, live, with the thing running in front of me. I'd rather cut once and adjust than plan for a week and find out I was filling the wrong order.
The curing room
Built, working, not released yet. Hanging until they're ready.
01
handoff-7
Unreleased
One command that dumps a project into a seven-file packet another AI can boot from cold — decisions, dead ends, and the environment the last session quietly relied on.
Claude Code command · Markdown + YAML
02
wise-men
Unreleased
A council of AI members, blind reviewers and one appointed dissenter that argue through stages before anything reaches me. Evaluated against plain single answers on a fixed question set.
Agent protocol · Tool-restricted subagents
03
freeride-bot
Built, not deployed
The router idea from Bash pulled out on its own: stack free tiers, cool one down the moment it rate-limits, fail over without dropping the conversation.
TypeScript · grammY
The butcher
One of one. I sharpen my own knives.
I learn a stack by gutting it.
Nobody taught me this. I take the thing apart — a storefront, a bot, an app that stopped working — until I can see which parts are load-bearing and which are just there. Then I rebuild it with less.
That's also how I read other people's software. When something dies, I'd rather reopen it on my own bench than wait for whoever built it to come back. Most of what's on this page started that way.
I'm studying computer science at Sadat Academy, in Cairo, and I ship in short sharp sessions rather than long ones. Available for remote work.
