All MIT licensed. No donation asks. These tools exist to solve real problems and demonstrate what thoughtful infrastructure tooling looks like.
Tool names use the CoreConduit split-color convention: base word + orange suffix
Automated bash script diagnostic and repair tool. Identifies common shell script issues, syntax errors, and portability problems across sh/bash/zsh environments.
Convenience wrapper and process manager for Ollama on Raspberry Pi and low-power Linux systems. Auto-start, model management, and resource throttling.
Local-first code snippet and documentation manager. SQLite backend, full-text search, tag-based organization. No cloud. No accounts. No subscriptions.
Retrieval-augmented generation pipeline tuned for local security documentation and policy management. Built to run on-device without any external API calls.
Single-file infrastructure health and performance benchmark suite for Raspberry Pi. No dependencies, no installation. Drop it on any RPi and run.
Lightweight local network monitoring daemon for self-hosted infrastructure. Tracks uptime, latency, and connectivity state changes — logs locally, no cloud required.
Complete walkthrough of HailoRT 5.3.0 installation, PCIe Gen 3 optimization, and hailo-ollama integration on a Raspberry Pi 5. Fully automated bash script included.
Ollama, ChromaDB, and a RAG pipeline — running entirely locally on Raspberry Pi hardware. No internet required after setup. Full architecture walkthrough with config files.
How to bridge an Arduino sensor array to a Python Flask API over serial, store readings in SQLite, and expose them via a REST endpoint for downstream consumption.
The security hardening checklist I run on every server I deploy — ufw, fail2ban, SSH key enforcement, HSTS headers, and service isolation. No security theater, just working controls.
Full walkthrough of building and deploying a PHP/MySQL inventory system that any organization can self-host — no subscription fees, no vendor lock-in, full data sovereignty.
How hydroMazing, NEXUS, and other local services discover and communicate with each other over a home or office LAN without any cloud intermediary or static IP management.
No sponsored posts. No affiliate links. Just what lives in my lab and runs my projects day-to-day.
Everything here is self-hosted, cloud-independent, and built for longevity over convenience.
Electronics engineer, embedded systems developer, and full-stack builder. Co-founder of CoreConduit Consulting. I build self-hosted, cloud-independent tools for nonprofits and anyone who believes their data should live where they can see it. The Tech Lounge is where I document what I build — not as polished tutorials, but as honest records of real projects.
