About Selvedge
A local MCP server that AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) call as they work, logging the why behind every change into a SQLite file under .selvedge/ next to your code. Selvedge is a git blame for the why, a local MCP server your agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) calls as it works, recording the intent behind each change in the moment it makes it, not reconstructing it from the diff afterward.
About Winnow
Winnow scores every post in your X timeline as you scroll and highlights the few worth replying to. Local, deterministic, read-only. Why this exists I was replying to the wrong posts. I used to reply to whatever showed up on the timeline, usually posts that were already ten replies deep, or three hours cold by the time I got to them. Same replies, just aimed at posts that were actually still open. The same reply is worth a great deal in the first fifteen minutes of a post with room left in it, and almost nothing on a post that already has forty replies and has finished being read.
