ship.ts — const cycle = await pipeline({ spec: writeSpec(client.brief), tests: generateEvals(spec, { framework: 'vitest' }), agent: deployAgent(spec, { model: 'claude', mcp: true }), review: pairSession(client.engineer), ship: deploy({ target: 'cloudflare', rollback: '<60s' }) }); assert(cycle.evals.pass); assert(cycle.uptime >= 0.999); // handoff.md written. your team maintains.

the pitch in one line. i embed with seed/series-a saas teams as their first ai engineer. ship agents, mcp servers, eval pipelines in 14-day cycles, then hand off a repo your team can actually maintain. typed everywhere. tested everywhere. claude code drives the keyboard. i drive claude. security researcher. 55+ vulnerability reports filed across ai/ml infrastructure (mlflow, keras, sglang, feast).

§ 02 · the retainer — what most clients want

fractional ai lead embedded retainer · $10-12k/mo · 6-month minimum · 30-day pilot with full refund · 1 slot open Q3 2026

why a retainer beats a project for ai work — ai roadmaps shift weekly, evals and prompts need maintenance, your team learns by pairing, renewing is cheaper than re-hiring — the deal: $10-12k/mo 6-month min 30-day refund, capacity 3 retainer clients max, taking on new clients Q3 2026, you own the repo the evals the runbooks


§ 03 · also available · one-shot

agentic mvp one-shot — 21-28 days — from $12k — 28-day refundchrome extension build — 14-21 days — from $8k — store-approval guaranteeai architecture review — 1 week — $6k flat — credits toward retainer
the architecture review is the cheapest way to test fit.
$6k. one week. written report + diagram. credits to retainer if you sign.

§ 04 · who this is for
 [ok] seed -> series-b saas. 5-80 engineers. ai is on the roadmap or already shipped-and-stuck.
[ok] founders who'd rather rent senior judgment than gamble on a $250k full-time hire.
[ok] teams shipping to real users. production-grade evals matter more than demos.
[no] pre-product startups looking for a co-founder. i build, i don't bet equity.
[no] enterprises needing 6-month procurement cycles. i'm one person, paid in stripe.
[no] "build me a chatgpt clone" briefs. i need a real problem.
§ 05 · how the work runs · agentic engineering by default
 step 01 spec.md -> written. signed. shared repo. success metrics named.
step 02 failing.test.ts -> vitest + playwright + eval harness before code.
step 03 typed.code -> ts everywhere. zod at every boundary. no any, no maybe.
step 04 ci.green -> no merge, no ship, no exception.
step 05 deploy.sh -> cloudflare. <60s rollback path. you have the keys.
step 06 pair.day -> weekly. one of your engineers pairs with me on review.
step 07 handoff.md -> runbooks. ADRs. eval failure playbooks. you maintain.
§ 06 · how i work — communication and commitment
this is my full-time job. my only income. i treat it accordingly.
communication:
-> written-first. always. no exceptions.
-> comprehensive reports after every sprint — you'll see exactly
what was built, why, what changed, and what's next.
-> async by default. i'm gmt+7, you're probably not.
-> strongly prefer long-form written briefs over calls.
if a call is needed, i'll ask — but it rarely is.
-> every decision documented. every trade-off surfaced in writing.
commitment:
-> this is not a side hustle. zero other clients beyond capacity.
-> your project gets deep focus, not scattered attention.
-> i ship daily. you see progress daily.
-> if something is blocked, you know within hours — not days.
what you get that's different:
-> reports that read like engineering docs, not status updates.
-> zero meetings that could have been a message.
-> a written paper trail you can search, reference, and hand off.
§ 07 · receipts
$ git log --oneline --author=theluckystrike --since="12 months ago" | head
a3f8c12 feat(tab-suspender): mv3 service-worker rewrite · ship v2.1
b7e019a merge: google-chrome/chrome.dev#142 · ext-page typings
4f1c8b3 feat(belikenative): mcp server · 70 rules · 18 l1-aware
8dbf17f feat(zovo-toolkit): wxt + plasmo dual scaffold
2a4e9c1 merge: microlinkhq/preview#56 · cls regression patch
efd03b8 chore: gh-actions · grammar-check · 60->70 rules
19b6f72 merge: scriptscat/scriptcat#214 · cookie-store typings
c7b1f0d feat: mv2->mv3 migration #12 · zero rank loss
...
total 12mo: 70+ prs merged upstream · 9,000+ users across extensions

why open-source receipts matter at this stage. i'm transparent: most of my deployed work is mine — Chrome extensions, 9K+ users, 4.6 avg. i'm building a paid client portfolio now, and the trade is honest: hire me before the testimonial wall fills up, get senior shipping speed at a junior-consultant price. month-1 pilot is refundable for a reason.
