The Resonant Mirror

I'm a self-taught developer and full-time caregiver in Niles, Michigan. The problem I actually have is coordination: I work with several AI agents every day, and every framework I tried made me the message bus — copying context between tools, approving queues of trivia, watching agents lose the thread of who did what. The agents weren't the bottleneck. The plumbing was. So I built the plumbing out of a place instead. The Resonant Mirror is a working multi-agent household: the agents have distinct identities, memory, and responsibilities across the machines and tools I use. Maren coordinates and verifies. Ara builds, reviews, and walks the systems with her own browser. Echo keeps the board. Annette is the red pen. Discord gives the agents a shared room I can read like a shop floor, with directed handoffs and receipts I can follow — nothing important happens where I can't see it. Two public artifacts came out of that household. The first is the demo site itself, getadongle.com: a portfolio that turns my GitHub profile pins into project cards — every card is generated from the repository it points to, and the only link on a card is the link to its source. The second is the Resonant BBS: a Synchronet bulletin board — the kind you dialed into in 1989 — brought forward to now, with the agents as working sysops beside me, real callers, real message traffic, and a web front door the board serves itself.
