/ EXPERIMENTAL SECTION

Labs

A record of the experimental products Noop builds in-house, and of what the trials taught us. None of it is client work: each entry started from something we needed ourselves and was carried far enough to be worth publishing.

Prototypes from before a thing is finished as a product, tools built because the work needed them, code written to verify an idea. What runs, we ship as a binary; what settles, we publish as documentation. The rule above each record says which is which: solid means complete, dashed means still in development.

NOTE

What we publish here exists mainly to run the experiment. You are welcome to use any of it, but it may be withdrawn without notice, and it comes with no warranty of any kind.

docs-kit

A design-doc management tool for AI-assisted coding

An AI doesn't question a design document. If it says status: current, the AI accepts it as the specification — and rewrites working code to match a design that moved on months ago. docs-kit puts two facts in each document's front matter: the code that document is responsible for, and the commit it was last reconciled against. If anything in that range has moved since, the document is marked stale. The verdict comes from git history, not from a self-reported date. It fails CI, and the built-in MCP server hands the same verdict to the AI. A single Go binary — git is the only requirement. Documents stay plain Markdown, so they outlive the tool.

Undisclosed project 002

An integrated development environment for the post-IDE era

An unnamed product, currently being designed with docs-kit. A conventional IDE assumes a human types the code one character at a time. Once an AI writes most of the implementation, what you need is not a faster place to type but a place to read, judge and send back what was generated. We are redrawing the screen and the workflow from that assumption. Its design docs live in docs-kit, which makes this the first real user of our own tool. It will be distributed from this page once it is finished.
