My AI had 16 answers that existed only on paper.
This is Friday Shipped & Scarred 15, the first week PC Workman is available on the Microsoft Store.
Shipped this week
- 16 silent intents found and implemented, plus 4 new ones. 20 handlers reading live sensor data: voltages, fan RPM, thermal history, morning briefs.
- hck_GPT learned to coach. "Tune up my PC" walks you through a 4-step plan with YOUR numbers, one message at a time.
- The OneDrive mystery solved. I was deleting registry keys, OneDrive kept re-adding them. Task Manager uses a hidden flag Windows respects even when apps fight back. Now I do too.
- Desktop shortcuts for Store installs, small-laptop fixes, 60 contrast fixes, and a 180-call harness that now guards every release.
Scarred: the week after launch, a tester called Adam found the temperature pipeline broken on some installs. Overlay showing "--". A monitor that cannot see temperatures is a monitor in name only.
This weekend: one clean data machine. Nothing else.
This is the project behind the post. PC Workman is a free, open-source Windows system monitor
with an offline AI assistant - everything described here is real, shipped code.
