StackDrain

Deployed here: https://stack-drain-planning.vercel.app/ Most teams know they might have infra debt. It’s just one of those things no one really wants to check. It usually doesn’t break anything today, and dealing with it feels messy — so it keeps getting pushed. Then a cloud provider announces an end-of-life, and suddenly upgrades are forced, timelines shrink, and everything becomes urgent. We built a small tool that turns a stack into visible infra debt — what’s already overdue, what’s coming up, and what to deal with first. The key idea is simple: infra debt gets worse over time, even if nothing changes. We used Codex to break this idea into pieces and build them in parallel — not just writing code, but thinking through the model itself. This isn’t about optimization. It’s about seeing what you’re already putting off — before someone else decides the deadline for you.
