Mathias Hansen describes building Atlas (support), Bullpen (sprint planning), a deploy visualizer and CVE-handling tools. Yak is an open-source coding agent that takes small tasks from Slack, Linear, Sentry and GitHub, and Treehouse gives each git branch an isolated Docker environment. Planning takes weeks and implementation takes hours or days. Before building anything the team asks three questions about domain expertise, criticality and workflow fit, a useful counterweight to building internal apps for everything.
