aerie

i wanted one place to start my day instead of five tabs. aerie is the dashboard i built so i'd actually open it.

aerie

before aerie i had my calendar in one tab, my inbox in another, and a running list of things to circle back on that lived nowhere in particular. mornings started with opening all of them separately and hoping i hadn't missed something.

i wanted one page. a briefing, an inbox, a calendar, and something that remembered what i cared about instead of starting from zero every day.

that something became hermes, a background agent that runs the morning check-in, the weekly review, and remembers context between sessions instead of me starting over every time.

it only runs for me right now. no accounts, no multi-tenant anything, all my own data staying on my own machine. still actively shipping, mostly tuning the parts that break when i lean on it every single day.
