The receipts
Every number here comes from my own Claude Code usage database — not a survey, not an estimate. This is what 249 active days of agentic engineering actually looks like.
October 29, 2025 → October 3, 2026 ·
Coverage is continuous from December 1, 2025; earlier rows were backfilled from transcripts carried off an older machine and are sparse (November 2025 is missing entirely).
Green figures are the change since the previous snapshot, 12 days earlier (Sep 21). The counters animate from those numbers to these.
Lately
The totals above are everything since October 29, 2025. This is the recent end of it: the last week, month and quarter, each set against the stretch just before.

Windows are calendar days ending Oct 2, the last complete day. Each change compares a window with the one of equal length immediately before it. A day with no activity counts as zero and shows as a gap. Every row's bars are scaled to that row's own busiest day, so heights are not comparable between rows.
How I work
This is the panel that matters. Using AI as autocomplete produces an Edit-heavy profile — code being generated into files. Mine is Bash-dominant, with Read at 2.6× Edit. That's not authoring. That's running, inspecting, verifying — operating a system.
268 distinct tools used. Top 14 shown.
What actually got built
My GitHub contribution graph shows a near-empty summer. It's wrong. The
work moved to wrangler deploy
and stopped touching a git push months ago. This is the same period,
measured at the source.

When I work
46.3% of everything happens between 6pm and 2am. Peak hour is 8pm; the quietest is 5am, when I am reliably asleep — the 3am-to-8am window is just 2.5% of everything. I didn't decide to be an evening builder; the data just says I am. All times Mountain.

Models
11 models across the window, 124.8M output tokens. I move as the frontier moves rather than sitting on a default.
Where the time goes
Personal projects, experiments, and my own tooling. Client work is aggregated and never named. Hours are active time, not wall-clock — see the note at the bottom.
218 further projects (1112.6h) are client and private work. They count toward every total on this page but are never named — the dashboard runs an allowlist, so anything not explicitly cleared for publication is anonymous by default.
