    Crane: Vendor-Neutral Healthcare Workforce Marketplace

    ![Crane](https://www.twine.net/signin

    Crane is a graph-backed, vendor-neutral marketplace for healthcare contingent labor. A provider posts a shift, every credentialed agency competes for it at the same instant, and only a credential-compliant clinician can be placed, with exact auditable money end to end.

    Built with Elixir (Bandit and Plug), a Neo4j graph, and an encrypted PHI vault. Five load-bearing invariants, each enforced in code with its own test: no PHI on the graph, atomic simultaneous broadcast, a hard credential gate, exact integer-cent money, and tests as the oracle.

    What it includes

    • Server-rendered dashboards for providers, agencies, clinicians, finance, and least-privilege operators
    • GAAP double-entry accounting, credential expiry alerts, PDF invoices, 1099 payouts, and geofenced clock-in
    • A pluggable integration layer (EVV, payroll, ATS, credential-wallet import) and a ReBAC authorization model
    • Deployed and internet-exposed over HTTPS via a hardened, database-private topology

    Materials and Practices: Records and Compliance for Organic Farms

    ![Materials and Practices](https://www.twine.net/signin

    A universal iPhone and iPad app for small-scale organic farms, built with SwiftUI, Core Data, and CloudKit, with zero third-party dependencies.

    What it does

    • USDA-sourced plant-cultivar database, grow management, and soil-health monitoring with a pH spectrum and lab integration
    • Agricultural lease management with payment tracking, and worker time tracking with overtime detection
    • FDA FSMA harvest-safety checklists and full traceability of organic amendments
    • CloudKit sync across devices; fully localized in English and Spanish

    sloth: Passive Wi-Fi and Network Security Analysis (C99)

    ![sloth](https://www.twine.net/signin

    sloth is a fully passive Wi-Fi and network security analysis tool written in C99 for Linux (ncurses + libpcap + nl80211). It observes and never emits: no packet injection, no scanning, no kernel-state changes.

    What it does

    • 23 live ncurses views: 802.11 beacon, probe, and deauth sniffing, plus ARP / mDNS / NBNS / DHCP / SSDP device discovery
    • TLS ClientHello and JA3 fingerprint capture
    • Synthesized alerts for port scans, deauth floods, NXDOMAIN bursts, threat-intel hits, and periodic beaconing
    • Forensic JSONL log and per-alert pcap for downstream analysis

    Engineering

    Written in C99 from the kernel-facing code up, backed by 50 C unit tests with a fake_platform shim so the kernel-facing code is testable on any host.

    ClientAPT: Encrypted Appointment Book for Solo Service Pros

    ![ClientAPT](https://www.twine.net/signin

    A privacy-first appointment book for solo service providers whose client list is itself confidential. Native iOS (Swift, SwiftUI, SwiftData) and Android (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Room) at feature parity, with zero third-party dependencies.

    What it does

    • On-device only: it never touches the network, iCloud, Siri, or Spotlight
    • Encrypted vault behind an app PIN, a second per-client PIN for flagged clients, and a duress PIN that opens a believable decoy vault when unlock is coerced
    • Test-driven, with 1:1 unit-test parity across the two platforms
