The lab

Looser projects, born from an idea we couldn’t shake. Some grow up, others stay experiments.

Discovery

Charactorium

A gallery of historical and mythological figures, from everywhere.

Queens, scientists, pirates, poets, deities: Charactorium gathers famous figures and much less famous ones, from every continent and every era. You can search, filter by field or era, or wander across a map or a “galaxy” of characters.

The catalogue makes a deliberate effort against the double bias, male and European, of the usual sources. It has no encyclopaedic ambition. It’s a free discovery tool, in French and English. In time, it should supply ready-to-use characters to Moiki EDU stories.

Charactorium is entirely vibe coded. It’s our testing ground for that way of working.

Claudemon

A collecting game you play while Claude Code works.

While Claude Code works, it shows little -ing words. Claudemon catches them: each word becomes an egg that hatches, then evolves over your sessions, through up to six stages. You build a team, duel other players and unlock achievements.

It’s free, and it’s a side project, not a service. The wrapper that plugs into Claude Code is a small open-source bash script.

A Claudemon collection: ten legendary pixel-art creatures (Metamorphos, Accomplish, Mus, Combobulat, Gesticulat…), each with its level and experience.
The Claudemon home page: the neon title and the “Start catching” and “Get the CLI” buttons.
The install terminal: the command cc "fix the auth bug", then output announcing a newly caught egg, “middleware”.

Video · parody

AltSubs

Make a film scene say something else.

You pick a film scene, write and style your own subtitles, then export and share. The catalogue is mostly Hindi cinema with a few Czech scenes, and you can import your own videos. Public creations go to a gallery where anyone can remix them.

It’s a nod to BombayTV, which we loved. Paid plans exist if you want to go further.

Mac · audio

Sillio

Record anything your Mac plays.

Sillio lives in the menu bar and taps the audio straight from macOS. No virtual audio driver, no microphone, no quality loss. You can even mute your speakers while it records.

Record a single app (Firefox, Chrome, Spotify…) or the whole Mac, with notifications left out. Sillio waits for the first sound, stops on its own after a few seconds of silence and trims the silence at both ends. A small floating window shows the timer and the level, without ever stealing focus.

There is also a command-line version built on the same engine. It needs macOS 14.2 or later.
