Minowa's Home Edition Released
Welp, it's out there now.
June was a slog, but Minowa’s Home Edition server is now available. I’m amazed at how much effort it takes to simplify an enterprise app for the sake of drawing in vibe coders working on health care apps.
This system has the following features in its current form:
Support for multiple users on one system.
Companion mobile client that will be released soon.
MCP connector for use with Claude Desktop.
Daily logging of medications and supplements.
Import of Apple HealthKit and Garmin data.
The very next things coming will include:
Personal document handling.
URL library so AI is constrained by PubMed Central publications.
Improved semantic search in the MCP connector.
For those of you who vibe code, extra effort was made for onboarding. The features in this area include:
LSP Enforcement Kit - replaces text command line tools with AST aware options.
Serena - Abstract Syntax Tree map of projects.
CodeSight & OptiVault - AST tools that dramatically reduce token burn.
Rigorously documented and maintained SQL data model.
OpenAPI framework that is also rigorously maintained.
Extensive multilayered testing discipline.
Automatically installs in local Docker and remote Linux systems.
These guardrails have evolved over the last year of development work and they provide fairly good discipline when dealing with the lazy, impulsive LLMs that we use for the sake of rapid progress.
If this interests you the daily scrum is in r/MinowaHealth …
