I'm Building Claude Basecamp — an Open-Source OS for Everything Claude Code (and I Need Help)
Quick confession: this started as "let me stop babysitting my tests and just make them stay green," and it turned into something a lot bigger. I want to be upfront about where I'm actually trying to take it. I built Claude Basecamp, and as of today it's open source. The reconciliation loop (declare "tests always green," it holds that true) is the part you'll notice first, but it's not really the point. The point is I want this to become the operating system for everything you do with Claude Code, one place that knows about every repo, every session, every routine, every connector, every skill, and every mistake it's ever made, instead of all of that living scattered across terminal windows and dead transcripts. Right now it already covers a decent chunk of that: npx claude-basecamp No install, no config. It finds the projects Claude Code already knows about and opens at http://localhost:4747 . Standing checks , the reconciliation loop. "Tests always green," "dependencies current," "the README documents every CLI flag" — say it once, Basecamp keeps it true, dispatches a fix run when it drifts, and only bugs you for the decisions that actually need a human. Reflexes. It goes back through your old transcripts, finds every time you said "no, don't do that," and turns it into a standing memory that every Claude Code session on your machine checks before touching Bash, Write, or Edit. A mistake made once doesn't get to happen a third time. Session Rescue. Resumes the actual dead session, same session ID, full context, when Claude Code dies mid-task, instead of starting over from scratch. A manager for every repo you just talk to: "keep the tests green," "track this goal," "what's the state of this repo?" Plus routines, background runs, an activity feed, stats, GitHub issue and PR hooks, notifications, webhooks, and a one-click catalog for connectors and skills. That's where it is today. What I actually want it to become is the default place you open whenever you're workin
