About

Product designer and builder working on AI products and developer tools. I built Mac Developer Bridge to let normal ChatGPT operate the Mac where the work actually lives: shell, files, PTY sessions, jobs, and Codex history. I like open source, local-first tools, and shipping things people can actually use.

Mac Developer Bridge - Give ChatGPT a real terminal on your Mac

Open-source MCP bridge that lets ChatGPT operate your actual Mac: shell, files, real PTY sessions, background jobs, and read-only Codex history. ChatGPT stays the reasoning layer; your Mac stays the execution environment. MIT licensed and intentionally not sandboxed.
