The brief

01

Challenge

I use Claude Code, Codex and Cursor on three Macs, for work and for my own projects. Each session starts knowing nothing about the previous one, or about what I told the other two, so switching tools or Macs meant explaining the project again.

02

Approach

One folder of plain text in git: rules, skills and a file per project, which every tool reads when a session starts. A small engine in TypeScript adds the hooks. A correction becomes a line in an inbox, the curator turns it into a proposal, and rules and code only reach my other Macs after my yes.

03

Outcome

Public since 12 October 2026 as a GitHub template under the MIT licence, with its own site at tildekit.dev. I use it every day, on three Macs.

The site

The site says what it does in one line and then shows it: a home of plain-text files in windows you can drag, with the inbox and a sync waiting for a yes.

From correction to rule

Capture, sort, approve. A correction is only a line in the inbox until the curator makes it a proposal and I say yes, so an agent never changes its own rules.

What is in the kit

A small core of session start, inbox, sync and guard, and four parts around it. The connector policy is the one you switch: reading is free, writing asks for a click, deleting is closed.

What it is not

  • Not a sandbox: the guard stops gross mistakes such as a force push, as a seat belt
  • Not a service: nothing is hosted and nothing phones home, sync is git to a remote you choose
  • Not supported: it is my own setup, tested on macOS with Claude Code

On a phone
