Brian Sparker: AI agents, MCP servers & macOS apps

Product @ You.com. I build open-source AI-agent infrastructure, MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools, and native macOS utilities for people who want their software to feel faster, cheaper, and more useful.

My work clusters around two ideas: making AI agents more capable and portable, and removing everyday friction from the software people use all day.

Stop reintroducing yourself to AI.

An open protocol for portable AI context: one human-readable Markdown file that tells Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, Gemini, and any AGENTS.md agent how you think, work, and want to be helped. Local-first, user-owned, versioned in Git.

~/.you.md ─┬─ MCP ────→ Claude · Cursor · Windsurf
           └─ export ─→ CLAUDE.md · AGENTS.md · GEMINI.md
npm i -g @brainsparker/you-md
you-md init -i ~/.you.md && you-md skill install

npm Stars TypeScript MIT

Press ⌥V. The right text appears wherever you're typing.

A native macOS AI paste app. One hotkey captures the active window, generates the right reply (a Slack message, an email, the next line of code), and pastes it at your cursor. No app switching, no prompting.

cursor in any text field
  → ⌥V
  → active window captured
  → AI writes the reply
  → pasted in place

Bring your own key (Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, or local models via Ollama / LM Studio) and it's free. No telemetry.
