Willikins

A CLI tool that deterministically provisions new projects’ supporting infrastructure — git repository, secrets vault/config, build pipelines, and more — based on the project’s needs (CLI tool, web service, mobile app, etc.). It is very much in progress but has already forced some config cleanup.

01 / The problem

What it addresses

Wiring repositories, secrets/config, and build pipelines by hand or with cobbled-together scripts is tiring, and delegating it to AI agents would require trusting them with broad read/write access to the needed resources.

    “https://github.com/Lightless-Labs/willikins: a tool to deterministically provision new projects’ git repository, secrets vault / config, build pipelines, etc, based on the project’s needs (cli tool, web service, mobile app,…). It’s getting tiring to wire all those by hand or with cobbled together script. And I don’t trust agents to give them read and write access to all the resources they’d need to do it. Very much in progress, but it already forced me to clean up some config.”
