Launch Astro

Open-source tools for building with AI coding agents

Launch Astro publishes Nathan Mulligan's open-source projects for building software with AI coding agents. Made in Townsville, built in the open.

LA.001What Launch Astro is

Each project is a tool for one part of working with AI coding agents.

Keeping an eye on your AI subscriptions. Building software with tests first and an independent review. Seeing how far a build has come. Running an organisation's work with a person signing off on what matters.

All of it is public on GitHub. Each project page has a plain write-up, a technical one, and the commands to install and start it, copied from the project's own README.

The projects

  • The SEATS tab: an ALL summary card, then Claude seats named Personal, Work and Team and a Codex seat, each with its 5-hour and weekly bars, a countdown to each reset and the percentage used

    Seat Gauge

    A small Mac window that shows how much of each AI subscription you've used, and which one to work on next.

  • Terminal output of Code Factory's event log tests, 16 tests passed and none failed

    Code Factory

    A way to build software with AI coding agents, where every change is tested first, reviewed by a second model and merged by a script.

  • The example project's work map: five stages of section cards, each with progress, ticket and review bars, under a chart of the last twelve hours of merges

    Work Map

    A map of a software build that shows which parts are nearly done, which are stuck, and what's waiting on review.

  • Mockup: three AI suggestions for sample clients, each with its evidence, beside an "Awaiting your approval" queue with Approve and Skip on every item

    Ops Astro

    One place to run an organisation's records, tasks and AI agent work, where a person decides before anything important happens.
