Shop Floor Intelligence

Shop Floor Intelligence — an autonomous shop-floor monitoring agent for high-mix job shops. Point a cheap webcam at otherwise-uninstrumented manual machines and Claude Opus 4.8 vision turns them into monitored ones: the agent watches each machine, catches a stoppage or a blocked camera the moment it happens, investigates the surrounding frames, and drafts the next action plus a shift briefing — with utilization and availability as supporting context. You set it up in plain English ("the green lathe is on the left, the blue CNC is on the right") and it tracks each named machine by region. The product is the autonomous watch → catch → draft loop, not a dashboard or an image analyzer.
