ADLC — Working Proof of Concept
A working proof-of-concept for a workflow-driven development lifecycle where the workflow owns progress and agents perform bounded cognitive work. It coordinates specification, planning, plan review, implementation, deterministic validation, independent code review, CI, and governed escalation. It is already used to evolve its own codebase. This is active R&D, not a client-deployed commercial product; some described capabilities remain partial or planned.

Market Day — the 15-second ad every seller deserves
Small sellers pour everything into what they make, and then get two seconds of someone's scroll to show it.
Market Day is for that moment. A seller ties off a parcel, the stall lights flicker on, and they hold out a wooden tray toward you. Your product lands on it, a little kraft label hops up to say what it is, and your headline settles onto a frosted-glass card.
I built it as one SVGator template and dropped in three businesses to prove it bends without breaking:
🍕 Forno Lucia, a wood-fired pizza café
🕯️ Ember & Oak, a candle maker
☕ Clay & Co, a ceramics studio
Same animation every time. To make it yours, swap 5 lines of text, 2 images and 1 colour. Every layer is named, the motion lives on wrapper groups, and no keyframe needs touching. About five minutes.
All artwork was made for this template, the brands are fictional and the fonts are open source, so it's free to give away.
If you sell by hand, this one's for you. Which stall should I set up next? 👇

I’ve spent the last three months building this.
Deframer is finally here.
It started with the same conversation with clients: they wanted to leave Framer but felt stuck, since moving meant rebuilding their sites.
I felt it too. Pricing kept getting harder to justify, and the product experience felt worse.
Our template sales also took a hit after the marketplace and community changes.
Other template creators have been seeing their revenue dip too.
So I built Deframer.
Some exporters just package what the browser loads from your published URL.
Deframer writes a clean Next.js + TypeScript project, following Next.js best practices. Code you can read, maintain and run yourself.
It also optimizes for SEO, AEO and speed.
Paste your Framer URL, verify it’s yours, and convert. Your pages, components, layouts and motion come along.
Three months later, it’s ready for you to try.

If you’ve been wanting to move off Framer, I’d love to hear how it works for you.
My AI assistant runs all day. The expensive model only does the thinking.
Most requests need no AI at all. "Call me in 30 minutes" is handled by plain code. Reminders, schedules and limits are code too.
Short tasks like sorting and scoring go to fast models on a free tier.
The big model only gets planning and long conversations, where it actually has to think.
If it hits a limit, a backup model answers instead of the app going silent.
If your AI app's bill keeps growing, check what really needs the big model.
What does your app send to the most expensive model?
Same pattern holds in outbound tooling. Filtering, dedupe and enrichment lookups are plain code. The model only writes the first line once the row is already verified. Cuts cost and the weird outputs.
