Technical Stack
Kevin's working stack is agent-native: Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, skills, MCP, qmd, generated packs, browser verification, and modern TypeScript product infrastructure.
Open this page when choosing tools, explaining Kevin's environment, or deciding which routing surface should own a task.
Agent And Brain Stack
| Surface | Current role |
|---|---|
| Cursor | Main IDE and interactive agent environment; rules, MCP, subagents, and automation-adjacent workflows. |
| Claude Code | Ground-level coding harness for deep repo work, especially Dedalus-style path-scoped rules and hooks. |
| Codex | Background work, API-like tasks, automations, and GPT-5 access when useful. |
| qmd | Wiki search/query/update/embed layer for brain-first lookup. |
| Skills | Executable procedures under skills/**/SKILL.md; runtime projection consumed by multiple harnesses. |
| MCP / CLIs | Tool capability layer routed through Capability Routing Map, Skill Resolver, and Actionable Tools Index. |
| Agent docs/packs | Generated portable context bundles from source wiki pages. |
| Doctors/checks | Routing, quality, skill, config, index, qmd, and no-sus verification loops. |
The 2026-07-01 active-stack state reports 236 executable registry entries, 237 runtime links including .system, and 38 automation definitions. Treat Active Stack (What to Actually Use) as the current recommendation surface, not this page's summary. Source: Active Stack (What to Actually Use)
Product Stack
Kevin commonly works in TypeScript, React, Next.js, Tailwind, Supabase/Postgres, Clerk, Stripe, Vercel, MCP, AI SDK/Gateway, browser automation, and sandbox/microVM environments. Repo-local docs and project pages decide the exact stack for a task.
Emerging/alternative web app route: Modern Web VPS Stack for TanStack Router/Start, Tailwind, Vite/Rolldown, Hetzner or Coolify self-hosting, and Cloudflare as DNS/edge/security/service layer. Treat it as the control/portability route beside the managed Next/Vercel default.
Routing Rule
Do not pick tools from habit. Use:
- Active Stack (What to Actually Use) for what Kevin should actually use.
- Capability Routing Map for overlapping capability families.
- Skill Resolver for exact skill/tool dispatch.
- Actionable Tools Index for concrete "do X with a tool" requests.
