What we build
TheColliery makes quality tooling for AI coding agents. Eight open-source repositories, all Apache-2.0 and zero-dependency:
- CoalMine: nine quality canaries (code health, rule completeness, grounding, supply chain, resilience, drift and more), plus hooks that run them unprompted.
- CoalTipple: a quality-gated model and effort router for Claude Code. Cheap work goes down to save tokens; hard or sensitive work goes up.
- CoalBoard: a consensus board for error-not-allowed work. Diverse lenses debate in parallel, a judge synthesizes, you sign off.
- CoalHearth: session warm-resume. A step journal, so an interrupted session resumes instead of rebuilding.
- CoalFace: fan-out discipline for agent swarms, bounded to a solo-cost budget.
- CoalWash: a memory washer for agent memory, fidelity-gated, with snapshot and rollback.
- CoalLedger: docs-health canaries. CoalMine for documentation.
- CoalGob (beta): a recoverable-delete guard that classifies destructive shell commands.

What your sponsorship pays for
- Testing every tool on Windows, macOS and Linux.
- Keeping up with fast-moving agent platforms, and fixing what breaks when they change.
- Keeping the docs true to what the code actually does.
TheColliery is run by one maintainer working with AI agents, and every commit says which model co-wrote it. Sponsorship keeps the tools independent and free for everyone.
Reaching 10 monthly sponsors helps keep all eight tools tested on Windows, macOS and Linux, and keeps them working as each agent platform ships its next release.
