Abandoned CLI projects

Built Beacon to solve my own problem: I kept shipping React apps with broken keyboard nav and missing alt text. Beacon runs in CI, fails the build on real issues (not just lint), and explains why each rule matters. Two of my friends used it on their teams and got it in. I'm moving to Rust and don't want to maintain the Node internals anymore.

Tidepool is what I wanted CRDT libraries to be: a single binary you can drop into any project, sync SQLite between devices, no server required. The hardest part was the merge logic for partial indexes, which I got working in v0.3 but the API was confusing. I rewrote it twice. v0.4 was the cleanest version and that's what's in main. The README has a "I'm walking away" note pointing here.

Anvil unifies AWS, GCP, and Cloudflare under one command surface. I built it because I kept switching between clients with different cloud setups. It's not a wrapper — it's a meta-tool that translates your intent to the right provider. I left it when I took a job that uses AWS only. The community picked it up. There's a maintainer team of 3 now.
