Open-Source Projects

Three repositories covering the full stack of building an AI-first company: the framework, the governance, and the agents.

Living Company Framework

shiba-group/living-company-framework
In Development

The architecture patterns for building AI-first companies. Defines how AI agents are structured, how they share memory, how they coordinate tasks, and how human oversight is maintained.

Edge Function patterns for AI agents (Deno + Supabase)
Shared memory layer architecture (namespaced key-value + vector)
Task delegation and routing patterns
Human-in-the-loop approval workflows
Multi-agent coordination protocols
Conversation logging and audit trail

AI Governance Templates

shiba-group/ai-governance-templates
In Development

THEMIS-inspired governance frameworks for responsible AI deployment. Policies, checklists, and decision trees that any organization can adopt to ensure their AI agents operate ethically and transparently.

AI Decision Authority Matrix (what AI can/cannot decide alone)
Human-in-the-Loop Policy Templates
AI Agent Scope-of-Authority Definitions
Bias Monitoring Checklists
Data Handling and Privacy Policies for AI Agents
Incident Response Playbooks for AI Failures

AI Children Starter Kit

shiba-group/ai-children-starter
Planned

Starter templates for deploying your own AI agent family. Fork, customize the personality and tools, deploy to Supabase, and have a working AI executive in under an hour.

Deno Edge Function boilerplate with Claude API integration
Slack event handler with HMAC-SHA256 verification
Tool-use loop pattern (multi-turn, max rounds configurable)
Memory CRUD module (persistent key-value store)
Conversation logging module
Example agents: CTO, CRO, CMO, Creative Director

How to Contribute

We welcome contributions from developers, AI practitioners, governance professionals, and anyone who believes AI should work ethically and transparently.

01

Fork the Repository

Start by forking the repo to your GitHub account. Clone locally and create a feature branch from main.

02

Follow Code Standards

TypeScript strict mode. Deno-compatible imports. No external npm dependencies in Edge Functions. Descriptive variable names. Comment the why, not the what.

03

Write Tests and Docs

Every new feature needs at least one test case and a documentation update. Templates need usage examples. Frameworks need architecture diagrams.

04

Submit a Pull Request

Open a PR against main with a clear description of what changed and why. Link to any related issues. One of our maintainers will review within 48 hours.

05

Review and Merge

We review for code quality, security, and alignment with the Living Company philosophy. Accepted contributions are credited in the changelog and on this page.

Code Standards

TypeScript Strict

All code must be TypeScript with strict mode enabled. No any types unless absolutely necessary and documented.

Deno Compatible

Edge Functions use Deno runtime. Import from URLs or standard library. No node_modules dependencies in server code.

Security First

All external inputs validated. Slack signatures verified with HMAC-SHA256. Service role keys never exposed client-side.

Documentation Required

Every exported function needs JSDoc. Every module needs a README. Architecture decisions recorded in ADRs.
