Voice notes become specs.
Specs become merged PRs.
No human in the loop.
The customer-facing stack is two composable layers. Together they form the loop from raw intent to merged code — and back to the next intent.
Voice or meeting in. Distillery extracts intent, scores confidence, generates the spec.
Factory's 14-step pipeline ships it autonomously, with self-verification at every gate.
The merged feature shows up where it was meant to live. The next meeting, the next voice note, picks up from there. The loop closes through use, not through reflection.
Distillery doesn't write specs in a vacuum. Before a single acceptance criterion is generated, it has the full Product Vision Document and the live codebase as context. Every spec is grounded in what you're building and in what already exists.
It's like having the senior engineer, the product lead, and the codebase architect all at the same table — triggered by a 30-second voice note from one person.
Solo operators won't scale by hiring. They'll scale by building infrastructure that ships while they sleep.
The bottleneck is no longer code production. It's spec quality and feedback-loop closure. The systems running here are the working hypothesis: a one-person product company on three composable layers — one for capturing intent, one for shipping code, one for accumulating wisdom.
A live-written chronicle of building Daystorm Labs and the systems that ship its software.
Every night, a harvest pipeline reads the day's Claude sessions and daily notes. The relevant fragments are distilled into structured nuggets. Once a week, those nuggets are synthesized into a narrative chapter. The book is being written by the system it describes — with me as the editor.
