From bash script to pipeline: how a late-night hack became Zowl
Started with a 600-line bash script running claude -p in a loop. It got out of hand. Here's how nightloop.sh became a real product.
Pipelines are the new git hooks
Git hooks automated commits. CI/CD automated deployment. Agent pipelines automate development itself. We're automating the first mile.

The pipeline that runs while you sleep
