Sheet M — The company

Meddling Idiot Software, LLC

Small tools for people who keep poking at things that already work. Every product here started as an annoyance somebody refused to live with, and none of them are trying to become a platform.

The name is a self-report. We have made peace with it.

Greenlight

Meddling Idiot Software, LLC logo

A Windows tray notifier for Azure DevOps and GitHub. Pull requests and pipeline builds reduced to one honest colour, with optional physical stoplight support for the truly committed.

M-02 — In the workshop

Two placeholders being honest about it

WIP-01

Private Browser

In active development. Description pending — tell us how you want it pitched and this card writes itself.

WIP-02

StoryTeller

Also in active development. Same deal: send copy and it stops being a placeholder.

WIP-03

Stoplight video course

A short demo series on wiring a real desk stoplight to your build. Parts, relays, the bridge, and one deliberately broken pipeline.

M-03 — House rules

Three principles, no mission statement

One job each

A tool that does one thing can be finished. A platform never is. We prefer finishing things.

Your data stays put

Local settings, OS-level credential storage, no accounts, no telemetry. There is nowhere for your data to go.

Snark included

The tone is the product line. If you wanted a corporate voice telling you your build failed, there are options.

The Meddling Idiot mascot
Named for what happens to working software when someone gets curious.

Curiosity compiled.

Greenlight is the one that is finished. Start there.
