Quox Dev Suite · Gripe

Friction, filed in four seconds.

Gripe makes complaining cheaper than suffering: one line in the gripe terminal becomes a labelled issue in the right repo, picked up by the triage bot, in a pipeline your whole organisation can see.

In plain words

What it is, where it lives, when to reach for it

What is it
A command in the Quox CLI that turns a one line complaint into a GitHub issue.
Where do I use it
In your terminal, on any machine where the quox CLI is installed.
When would I use it
When you spot something wrong and do not want to stop and write it up.
How do I use it
Run quox gripe "sidebar tooltip clips on resize" and confirm. The GRIPE agent writes and files it.

The model

Vent, capture, stream. Then it gets worked.

Every team loses its best bug reports to the cost of reporting them, and a fleet of autonomous agents makes it worse: the friction they hit at 3am is gone by morning unless filing it costs nothing.

01 · vent

Complain, keep working

Friction dies in the moment it is felt. You hit a broken script, a flaky test, a missing doc, and by the time you could file a ticket the moment is gone. The Gripe Cannon is a dedicated terminal that eats one-liners: type what bugs you, it files a proper issue, you never left your work.

Filed in the right place

Today the cannon reads your one-liner, infers the target repo, labels the issue and files it where the fix lives. The plugin path goes further: host, branch, working directory and the moment attached automatically, so nobody ever asks "which box was this on?"

One org-scoped stream

Every gripe from every dev server in your organisation lands in one durable, server-side stream: a gripes window on the dev server hub, filterable by host, repo and age. Friction across a whole fleet becomes one readable list.

Triage picks it up

A gripe is the start of a loop, not a shout into a void. The Triage agent works the stream: dedupes, evaluates, proposes a fix, and asks before applying it. The paper cut you filed in four seconds comes back as a proposed patch with receipts.

Honest state

What is real today, what is planned

The full scene capture (host, branch, moment) is the plugin path, tagged planned below.

Real today
  • The Gripe Cannon terminal: one-liner in, labelled GitHub issue out in the inferred repo, triage bot pickup
  • Daily use on our own dev boxes, the tool earned its place before it earned a page
  • quox gripe: file a one-liner straight from the terminal you are already in. The CLI is the whole product today, there is no dashboard screen. It will not report an issue as filed without an issue URL to show you
Planned: the plugin path
  • The governed plugin path: org-scoped server-side store, gripes window per dev server on the hub
  • Automatic scene capture at filing time: host, branch, working directory, moment
  • Delivery with the dev server kit, so every enrolled host can gripe out of the box
  • The Triage handoff: gripes as the inbox the Triage agent works
  • Currently gated on an auth-model decision (how an unattended terminal authenticates a filing)

The cannon, loaded

How you get it

Free, and it stays free

free

Gripe costs nothing

Filing friction should never have a price on it, so Gripe is free: a $0 store row, the quox gripe verb and the cannon terminal, included with the Dev Suite bundle and usable the moment your instance is up.

The governed plugin

Gripe as a governed fleet plugin, with an org-scoped store and a gripes window per dev server, is gated on how an unattended terminal authenticates a filing. Real decision, honestly open, listed above.
