Toolbox

A curated list of tools I use regularly, grouped by category.

Browsers

Zen

Reinvented Firefox. User friendly. Switched away due to limited AI integration.

#browser#firefox#productivity

OpenAI Atlas

Previously my primary AI-native browser; I moved to Chrome for its Gemini integration and Codex browser control.

#browser#ai#automation

Dia

AI-first browser: chat with the current page, summarize YouTube, skills (predefined prompts), access multiple tabs. Paused use after switching to Atlas.

#browser#ai#youtube#prompts

Comet

AI-powered browser from Perplexity. Similar to Dia plus UI automation that can take over to do tasks. On hold while Atlas is my primary.

#browser#ai#automation

Edge

Microsoft Edge with Copilot. Used at work. GPT-5 Copilot with Edge is great.

#browser#copilot#work

ChromeπŸ”₯

My current browser. The Gemini subscription makes Chrome a natural fit, and the Codex extension can drive the browser for computer-use workflows.

#browser#gemini#computer-use

Mobile Browser

Edge (Mobile)πŸ”₯

Current choice. Copilot integration is easy to use.

#mobile#browser#copilot

Firefox (Mobile)

Sometimes. Still like Firefoxβ€”less mainstream, potentially fewer scams; customizable, fast, and cloud sync.

#mobile#browser#privacy#sync

Knowledge & Media

AntennaPod

Open-source and ad-free podcast app.

#podcasts#open-source#ad-free

Logseq

Markdown-based journaling. Simple, indentation matches how I think; pretty free form.

#knowledge-base#journal#markdown

Development Tools

VS Code

Still used for work and personal editing, with GitHub Copilot mainly serving my work workflow now.

#ide#copilot#work#personal

OpenAI CodexπŸ”₯

My primary personal coding agent nowadays. I use the Codex app heavily for building and maintaining software.

#coding-agent#openai#personal

GitHub Copilot CLI

Still useful as a coding agent at work, but I rarely use it as my personal coding agent now.

#coding-agent#cli#work

Zed

High-performance text editor with AI integration. Used occasionally for simple text edits.

#editor#ai

Vim

When in CLI or for quick edits. Sometimes used.

#editor#cli

AI Coding & Models

T3 CodeπŸ”₯

A unified interface for running and switching between different coding agents, including remote access from web and mobile clients.

#coding-agent#multi-agent#remote

OpenCodeπŸ”₯

An open-source coding agent I use with open-weight models and different model providers.

#coding-agent#open-source#open-models

OpenRouterπŸ”₯

The model gateway I use to access open-weight models from different providers.

My current workflow orchestration platform, replacing n8n for durable and reliable long-running workflows.

Skills

Modern web guidance and best practices for building web applications.

#resources#web-development#best-practices

LLM Reference

Curated references for exploring and comparing language models.

Infrastructure

Pocket IDπŸ”₯

My internal identity provider. Passkey-based sign-in gives me a secure system without memorizing every username and password.

#identity#oidc#passkeys#self-hosted

OpenObserveπŸ”₯

My OpenTelemetry server for basic tracing and logging across my internal systems.

#observability#opentelemetry#logging#tracing

The private network layer I use to connect and access internal services securely.

My reverse proxy for exposing internal services with simple configuration and automatic HTTPS.
