A small tool called "Catraca" (Portuguese for "turnstile" / "ratchet"), to orchestrate and integrate with your CI (Github, Gitlab, Forgejo, GrumPHP, ...), and you or your AI can use to fix problems and keep your code optimized.

Simple commands. Zero noise. Just enough structure to keep momentum. Optimized for AI agents.

If you’re into minimalistic dev tools or love hacking your productivity, check it out:
github.com/b7s/catraca

Would love feedback, ideas, or even feature requests.
