Computer scientist. Software quality consultant. Maker. Engineer. Self-hoster. Blogger.
As a software quality consultant I help teams spot problems in their software early, avoid them and keep them under control. At home I solve my own. I share the solutions as open source, run them as services for others, and what can't be programmed I print in 3D, for myself and for customers.
Projects, résumé, cloud and blog: marcelbruckner.de
- At CQSE: with clients I analyse the quality of their software systems, make technical debt visible and help teams make quality a shared goal in their daily work.
- My own business, in Kempten (Allgäu): I build and run my own software, and offer local 3D printing as 3D Bruckner.
- My own cloud: two mini PCs in a 10-inch rack, seven zones, three tiers of backup, all of it as code.
- Background: M.Sc. and B.Sc. in Computer Science: Games Engineering at TUM. My master's thesis taught reinforcement learning agents several robot manipulation tasks in sequence without forgetting the earlier ones.
engineering-conventions: written rules for architecture, code, working with Claude, repository setup and stacks, which a Claude Code plugin brings into every session, so agents work to the same standards I do and can audit a repository against all of them. It is the same question I work on as a software quality consultant: how a team makes quality a shared goal, now for a team that includes agents. The plugin ships in my claude-marketplace, the harness of plugins I use every day.
| notefeed | An inbox for Markdown notes: post via HTTP, web UI or client, read as RSS. |
| Gamepanion | A spoiler-free companion for the games you play: tell Claude about quests, build and items while you play, and it knows where you were next time. |
| Gesetze für KI | A public MCP server with current German federal and state law, so AI assistants look laws up instead of quoting from memory. |
| passageway | Searches wiki, notes and documentation at once and gives Claude exactly the passages that answer a question, each with its source. |
| noticebox | An inbox for the forms on static pages, usable by Claude over MCP. |
| freundebuch | A personal CRM for one household: ramble to Claude about your friends and get briefed before you meet them. |
Plus MCP servers and Claude Code plugins for Trilium, Paperless-ngx, Invoice Ninja and Teamscale. Nearly all of it is open source and can be self-hosted. The full list, with releases and my contributions to other projects, is on marcelbruckner.de.
