Workhorse is a CLI set of scripts / tools that turns an old laptop into a headless SSH compute/storage node that my main machine offloads to.

Main components are: - a router script (onpro) that probes the box and runs the command there, falling back to local automatically if it's asleep or unplugged. - a PreToolUse hook in my AI coding setup intercepts the heavy commands like builds, test suites, ffmpeg, OCR, big pandas jobs. Forces them onto the workhorse instead of melting my MacBook Air.

The agent decides what to run, and a deterministic layer guarantees the heavy stuff lands on the right machine.

Testing Workhorse a bit more before sharing.

Also https://motate.app/ was an attempt to make math writing easier for me (as I recently needed to hold my newborn through most of my LinAlg refresher course) but I've since started trying to figure out how to make it useful for broader science/math writing and education.
