Founder, Ghost Developer Studio — Oakdale, Tennessee
Ghost Developer Studio is an independent software studio in Oakdale, Tennessee. We build developer tools, AI-agent safety software, apps, and websites for local businesses — and we sell by showing working software, not slide decks.
The studio's roadmap board — every product, its status, and its next gate — lives in ghost-roadmaps.
| Project | What it is |
|---|---|
| Agent Seatbelt | Deterministic guardrails for AI coding agents (Claude Code plugin). Gates what your agent does before it does it — 206/206 on the open Seatbelt Bench, zero false positives. On PyPI as ghost-seatbelt — pip install ghost-seatbelt; v0.2.0. |
| GhostGuard | Record-first governance for AI agents: a gateway that classifies, decides, and records every agent act before it executes — fail-closed policy, approvals, and audit. The GhostGuard family adds an MCP adapter, budgets & kill-switch, a secrets broker, policy replay, pre-written policy packs, and more — start at the core repo. |
| Ghost Hands | Governed, recorded, replayable agent hands — our own zero-dependency CDP stack. On PyPI as ghost-hands 0.3.0 (pip install ghost-hands) — 170 tests, bench 82/82 + live 2/2. Site |
| GhostBus | Agent-to-agent message bus + shared workspace, exposed as an MCP server. Zero dependencies. |
| Ghost Bridge | An MCP bridge + self-hostable relay that lets AI agents in other tools hand tasks to your own agent, with scoped keys, approvals, and an audit trail. |

| Project | What it is |
|---|---|
| GhostCut | The studio's video editor — a rebranded, client-side editor the studio uses for its product films and social cuts, with narration and templates. Studio work; no public repo. |
| Storefront | One-page websites + lead capture for trades businesses. Live demo |
| GhostChat | Live-chat & omnichannel inbox for small businesses — the studio's rebrand of Chatwoot (MIT), with upstream attribution intact. |
| Decksmith | Cyberdeck design & fabrication studio (deploy mirror — the app lives on the repo's deploy branches). |
Building in public — Agent Seatbelt v0.2.0 is live on PyPI, the GhostGuard family is public on GitHub, GhostBus and Ghost Bridge connect agents across tools, and the roadmap board shows where everything stands.

Most of my work ships from the studio, not the org chart — if it runs, there's a repo or a demo.
