Fixed-scope remote work

Codex-ready repos, small automation, and code repair.

Practical help for founders, operators, and small teams that need a repo made safer for AI coding agents, a runnable script, a repaired test suite, or a narrow AI workflow prototype without a long agency process. Best first request: one sanitized sample, the desired output, and the command or workflow that currently fails.

CSV reconciliation

Buy the kit or send a small cleanup job.

Done-with-you

Express CSV audit

A quick pass on one sanitized export pair. You receive a short findings report, mismatch examples, and the smallest next fix. Best when you want diagnosis before paying for cleanup.

Done-for-you

Reconciliation cleanup sprint

I adapt the workflow to one concrete file pair, run the reports, tune the matching rules, and return the script, output folder, README, and verification notes.

Services

Four offers with clear deliverables.

Codex / repo workflow

Codex repo readiness audit

A focused pass that makes an existing repo easier and safer to work on with Codex: command map, AGENTS.md guidance, test gates, PR checklist, and a short risk report.

  • Current build/test/lint commands mapped
  • AGENTS.md or contributor workflow patch
  • Verification checklist for future PRs
$99 audit, $249 setup, $499 workflow

Python / spreadsheets

CSV and Excel automation

Reconciliation scripts, cleanup tools, duplicate checks, report exports, API-to-spreadsheet helpers, and repeatable workflows from client-owned exports or documented APIs.

  • Runnable script or small tool
  • Sample input and output where possible
  • README and verification notes
$50-$150 typical small scope

Repos / CI

Bug fix, test repair, or PR review

Focused fixes for failing tests, broken builds, small React or Python bugs, GitHub Actions failures, stale PRs, and code paths that need a reproducible before/after result.

  • Issue reproduction
  • Root-cause summary
  • Patch or review report with targeted verification
$79 triage, $199+ one-flow rescue

AI prototypes

Small chatbot or RAG prototype

A narrow prototype from provided docs, FAQ content, or internal notes. Built to validate the workflow before spending on a full production system.

  • Provided-content ingestion
  • Simple chat UI or API
  • Known limits and setup notes
$99 audit, $250+ prototype

Workflow

How a small job starts.

  1. Send one sanitized input sample and the output you want.
  2. I confirm the smallest fixed scope, expected deliverable, and verification proof.
  3. If it fits, I reply with a fixed price, timeline, and platform-native payment path. Work starts after payment.
  4. I deliver a patch, script, or prototype with verification evidence.

FAQ

What to send before a quote.

How fast can a small job start?

Most fixed-scope jobs start after one sanitized sample, the expected output, and the failing command or current workflow are clear.

Can you work on private repos?

Yes, if access is authorized and the work can be verified without posting secrets or production customer data in public. Private repo or data access is handled only after fixed-scope agreement and payment, if needed.

Can I pay for diagnosis first?

Yes. A narrow audit can identify the next patch, missing tests, or automation plan before a larger implementation quote.

What makes a request easy to quote?

A fake-data sample, the expected output, a failing command, and a clear done condition usually make the first quote faster and safer.

What does the handoff include?

A script, patch, review, or prototype with a short README, verification commands, and any known test or environment gaps.

What should not be shared?

Do not send passwords, API keys, payment details, customer records, production dumps, or files you are not allowed to share.

How are payment details handled?

Payment and platform terms are handled outside the public brief. The public request should contain sanitized scope only; fixed-price work starts after scope agreement and payment.

Quote request

Send a sanitized scope.

Open a GitHub issue with one sanitized input sample, the output you want, and any deadline or platform constraint. Do not post credentials, private customer data, payment details, production secrets, or files that you are not allowed to share.

Safety

Clear no-go list.

No CAPTCHA bypass, account automation, spam, fake engagement, unauthorized scraping, credential handling, payment-platform bypass, or promises of accounting, tax, legal, financial, security, or business outcome correctness.
