Systems that run in production

Enterprise document infrastructure at work, plus open-source packages on PyPI, npm and NuGet, and a SaaS I run myself.

SkyPDF — Low-level PDF Infrastructure

The PDF engine behind SkyCom’s document products: parsing, rendering and signature validation at the byte level, shipped as RPM packages. The My Number Card signing work inside it became patent JP 2025-169170 A.

Agentic Stealth Browser

Open-source stealth browser automation for autonomous agents, built on Playwright. Coherent fingerprinting across TLS, navigator, WebGL and Canvas, human behaviour simulation, block-detection with recovery, and an MCP server so AI agents can drive it directly. v3.0.0 on PyPI, MIT licensed, CI green across pytest, ruff, mypy, CodeQL and a Docker smoke test.

Edge Agent Bridge

Lets a Python script or an AI agent drive the Microsoft Edge tab you already have open, so logged-in sessions, enterprise VPNs and saved credentials survive. CDP events travel over a local RFC 6455 WebSocket at a 9.09 ms P50 round trip, and batching 50 actions runs 7.9× faster than firing them one by one. It binds to 127.0.0.1:18999 and nothing else: no telemetry, no outbound calls, no dependencies past Python 3.10. v2.0.2 on PyPI, MIT licensed.

Doppelhand — Hands on the Windows Desktop

Eyes and hands on a Windows desktop for whichever agent you already run: screenshots plus real mouse and keyboard, one JSON object per command, no API key. A warm loopback server holds the display open through DXGI Desktop Duplication — 6 ms actions and 30 ms screenshots against roughly 300 ms per spawned process — and it installs its own agent skill into Claude Code, opencode or AGY. v1.3.1 on PyPI, MIT licensed, Pillow the only dependency.

GhostScrape — Hosted Scraping API

Production SaaS built on top of the stealth engine above: a FastAPI service with API-key auth, usage metering and quota billing, PostgreSQL 16 with Alembic migrations, and a rotating-proxy layer. Deployed behind Cloudflare Tunnel on hardened Linux with systemd, resource caps and a dedicated service user.

Shanewas.PosixIpc

A lightweight .NET library for System V shared memory and semaphores on Linux (x64, glibc). No native payloads, just P/Invoke to libc through shmget and semget, built for low-latency same-host IPC between processes. v1.0.1 on NuGet targeting .NET 6 and 8, MIT licensed.

C# .NET Linux P/Invoke NuGet

Engram — Cross-machine Agent Memory

Durable memory for coding agents, where a private git repo is the store and the audit log: every fact is an attributed, timestamped, revertible commit; no database, no service. Session hooks sync it between machines automatically, bounded by an explicit path allowlist.

@shanewas/form-validation

A rule-driven validation engine for forms, running the same way in Node and in the browser. Cross-field dependencies, conditional rules, custom validators and per-field error reporting, written originally against messy PDF form data. v1.3.3 on npm, GPL-3.0.

ATS Resume Analyzer

Resume analysis pipeline that scores documents the way an applicant tracking system does: keyword matching, skill-gap detection, targeted rewrites.
