Developer-first software lab

Tools for teams that like their software clear, inspectable, and close to the metal.

We create open protocols, CLIs, automation systems, and infrastructure-oriented products for developers who care about clear contracts, inspectable workflows, and practical reliability.

About

Precise software systems, not demos.

Anchorage Labs is an independent organization focused on useful technical products: backend systems, infrastructure, automation, developer tools, and open source primitives.

Clear protocols

Built with explicit boundaries, small composable tools, and a bias toward systems developers can understand and improve.

Auditable automation

Built with explicit boundaries, small composable tools, and a bias toward systems developers can understand and improve.

Developer ergonomics

Built with explicit boundaries, small composable tools, and a bias toward systems developers can understand and improve.

Operational discipline

Built with explicit boundaries, small composable tools, and a bias toward systems developers can understand and improve.

Owners

Founder-led by builders with systems instincts.

Anchorage Labs is led by Sol Soletti and Valentin Torassa Colombero. Their public work points toward the same center of gravity as the organization: developer tools, backend systems, infrastructure, automation, and practical open source software.

Open Source

Tools in progress for developers and maintainers.

The public portfolio is early, technical, and intentionally focused: automation protocols, contributor onboarding, changelog discipline, and portable development environments.

envy

Alpha CLI

Repo

A lightweight dotfiles CLI for backing up, restoring, syncing, and bootstrapping development environments across machines.

Useful for

Developers who want portable, git-backed workstation setup without adopting a heavy dotfiles framework.

Python 3.11+CLITOMLunittestGitHub Actions

lighthouse

Pre-v0 scaffold

Repo

An onboarding assistant that explains repositories, maps important folders, ranks beginner-friendly issues, and guides first-time contributors toward a first PR.

Useful for

Open source maintainers and new contributors who need faster, safer orientation inside unfamiliar codebases.

ShellCLI conceptGitHubMarkdownMermaid

chary

Early CLI scaffold

Repo

An automated changelog generator and commit diff registry designed to enforce changelog hygiene on pull requests.

Useful for

Teams that want release notes and change history to stay tied to merged PRs instead of manual bookkeeping.

Internal Systems / Labs

An open-core boundary with private orchestration.

Anchorage Labs separates public protocols and reference tooling from private workflow composition and organizational strategy. The website describes capabilities without exposing private implementation details.

01Public/open source: anchorage, envy, lighthouse, chary.

02Private/internal: anchorage-internal and anchorage-orchestrator.

03Current stage: early development across the portfolio; anchorage is a pre-v0 reference implementation, lighthouse is a pre-v0 scaffold, envy is alpha, and chary is an early CLI scaffold.

04Confirmed technical direction: protocol-first automation, CLI tooling, GitHub-centered workflows, explicit validation, reproducible local execution, and contributor-facing developer tools.

anchorage

Public open-core

Protocol, TypeScript SDK, reference CLI runner, MCP/A2A adapters, and reference agents for end-to-end software automation.

anchorage-internal

Private

Strategy, operating principles, ADRs, and internal project context. Treated as private organizational infrastructure.

anchorage-orchestrator

Private

A proprietary workflow layer that composes CLI-first Anchorage agents into auditable software delivery flows.

Technical Stack

Confirmed technologies across the repositories.

This stack reflects technologies observed in the analyzed repositories, manifests, Dockerfiles, workflows, and project documentation.
