mothaship
software that maintains itself. what could go wrong?
mothad is generic infrastructure for force-multiplying with Claude: run jobs against your codebase, tools, and domain knowledge through email, SSE, or pipelines.
📧 Email daemon
The flagship workflow is still delightfully weird: report a bug by sending an email. No account, no login, no GitHub. Just email.
🧠 Generic job runner
Under the hood, mothad is a generic jobs API. Give Claude a role, a repo, a prompt, and some tools, then let it work close to the source.
📡 Email, SSE, pipeline
Run the same infrastructure through human-threaded email, live SSE timelines, or programmatic pipelines and hooks.
🛠️ Real use cases
Software engineer triage. Support engineer copilot. Onsite chatbot with domain knowledge and tools. Internal automation that actually knows your repo.
One engine, many roles
- software engineer: triage bugs, read the repo, propose patches
- support engineer: answer customers with product context and tools
- onsite chatbot: live answers backed by local knowledge and actions
- pipeline worker: run repeatable Claude jobs from other systems
