The portal
I taught AI to run my life.
Axiom is my second brain, built as a private operating system. It keeps my journal and my plans, remembers what I tell it, reconciles every dollar — and trades my accounts while I sleep.
Named for the ship in WALL·E — the one that runs itself so well its passengers stop steering. Auto and Eve live aboard.

01The domains
Four things it watches.
The second brain
A journal that remembers, a planner that reschedules instead of scolding, habits and life metrics measured with honest denominators. This half is the point; everything else reports into it.
Life
Travel, health, collections, study. These sat on the same footing as the trading systems from the start — a design rule, and in hindsight the tell for what the whole thing actually was.
Money & markets
Brokerages, banks, retirement and crypto pulled into one nightly ledger — and trading engines gated so that no measured edge means no trade. The whole trading layer is Eve.
Eve→The brain
One agentic surface over all of it: a live map of every dataset the system can see, and a command bar that turns a sentence into a view. That is Auto.
Auto→02The stack
How it is built
- What runs it
- Next.js on the App Router, deployed to AWS with SST. Server components by default, streaming responses on the slow paths, and a PWA shell so it installs to a phone home screen.
- Where the state lives
- One PostgreSQL database on Supabase. Schema, migrations, row-level security and stored procedures are all versioned in the repo, and nothing reaches production without a migration.
- What wakes the agents
- Scheduled Lambdas on EventBridge, plus a webhook-to-queue-to-worker path for anything a third party pushes. Row-level locking guarantees exactly-once processing across concurrent invocations.
- How it reports
- Web push to a phone, Slack for the trade tape, and a morning digest. The design target is that I never have to open the portal to know whether it had a good night.
03The boundary
It holds real money, so it fails closed.
- The portal is invite-only and gated on an owner allowlist. Every mutating route fails closed on an unknown user, and non-owner sessions are rejected even when signed in.
- The database is reached with a service-role client that bypasses row-level security, so the code path is the boundary, not the policy. That is the reason Auto can never issue raw SQL.
- Cron endpoints authenticate on a shared secret compared in constant time, and a route that serves both cron and browser traffic picks its check per branch rather than trusting one for both.
