## 🎯 Featured Projects
### ⚗️ [Athanor](https://github.com/BinaryMuse/athanor)
An experiment harness developed for AI research but flexible enough for any systematic experimentation. Write your experiments in code and manage them via a web interface, or via an MCP server. Written in Elixir, taking advantage of the amazing concurrency primitives the BEAM provides.
### ✨ [Atuin](https://github.com/atuinsh/atuin)
Magical shell history! Atuin replaces your existing shell history with a SQLite database, recording additional context for your commands. Features include:
- 🔍 Full-screen history search UI (rebindable to ctrl-r and up)
- 🔐 Optional encrypted synchronization across machines
- 📊 Command statistics and analytics
- 🌐 Multi-shell support (zsh, bash, fish, nushell, xonsh)
Built primarily with **Rust** for performance and reliability.
### 🖥️ [Atuin Desktop](https://github.com/atuinsh/desktop)
Runbooks that run! A desktop application that brings powerful workflow automation to your fingertips. Built with modern desktop technologies to provide a seamless user experience for managing and executing runbooks.
