DEVELOPER. TINKERER. EXPLORER.

Justus
Dieckman.

Python / JavaScript / TypeScript

Code, curiosity,
& a little time travel.

I build desktop tools, automation, and AI workflows that solve specific problems. Have a script, bug fix, or small feature in mind? Let’s make it work.

01 / THE PROJECT ARCHIVE

A few things I’ve built.

Real projects. Public source.
Take a look under the hood.

Jinx Cleaner 0.2.0 running on Windows, showing the Files panel with quarantine and restore controlsJINX CLEANER · 0.2.0

WINDOWS DESKTOP · SYSTEM UTILITIES

Jinx Cleaner

01

A Windows inspection and cleanup workspace with recoverable quarantine. Review processes, registry startup entries, scheduled tasks, and files before taking action.

Brings scattered Windows inspection tasks into one place.

  • Python
  • Tkinter
  • psutil
  • Windows
View source
Project notes

Version 0.2 adds persistent UUID quarantine, checksum-verified restore without overwriting files, process identity checks before termination, and background scans. SHA-256 and Authenticode support investigation. Heuristic indicators are not malware verdicts; coverage is limited to the documented registry keys and accessible tasks.

LOCAL AI · DESKTOP WORKFLOW

AI Image Analyzer

02

Image critique, image-to-prompt generation, batch analysis, and prompt editing in a Windows app connected to local Ollama vision models.

Keeps image and prompt work together, with inference on your machine.

  • Python
  • CustomTkinter
  • Ollama
  • Pillow
View source
Project notes

Requires Ollama and a local vision model. Supports PNG, JPEG, and WebP, plus a style reference for prompt edits. Critiques are model-generated suggestions, not objective quality measurements or a promise of identical recreation.

AI News Hub 0.2.0 running on Windows with five online sources, chronological headlines, and an article briefAI NEWS HUB · 0.2.0

INFORMATION TOOLS · RSS

AI News Hub

03

A futuristic Windows intelligence desk for AI research, open-source releases, and industry news. Browse a newest-first stream, inspect source health, and read article briefs side by side.

Makes a scattered set of AI news feeds easier to browse and revisit.

  • Python
  • Tkinter
  • feedparser
View source
Project notes

Version 0.2 combines and deduplicates all feeds before limiting results, keeps bookmarks in persistent user storage, and isolates source failures. Search, source/channel filters, saved articles, validated original links, and HTML digest export remain available. Summaries come from publishers; there is no offline feed cache.

SEARCH → DISCOVER

Find the model. Keep the source.

DISCOVERY · AUTOMATION

STL Miniature Scraper

04

A desktop and command-line utility for discovering miniature model pages. Aggregates public search results with source filters and links back to creators.

Helps find model pages across sources without losing their original links.

  • Python
  • CustomTkinter
  • Beautiful Soup
View source
Project notes

The current source uses ModelRover public search by default, with optional providers and browser-search fallback. Saved links and attempted file downloads are counted separately. Prices, licensing, availability, and printability must be checked on the creator’s page.

02 / WHAT I BUILD

Something broken?
Something to build?

Scripts, fixes, and the next little feature.
Here’s where I can help.

Scripts, fixes & features

Python scripts, Python / JS / TS bug fixes, and focused JavaScript or TypeScript features for an existing project.

Make the next piece work.

Desktop & automation

Purpose-built desktop utilities and automation workflows that turn repetitive steps into something easier to use.

Less repetition. More useful tools.

AI tools & technical reviews

Local AI workflows, structured agent tooling, and code or MVP audits with practical findings and clear next steps.

Connect the idea to an implementation.

03 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME

There’s usually
another idea.

I’m Justus, an independent developer who likes building focused software that solves a specific problem. I’d rather make a useful tool than turn every idea into a giant platform.

And yes, I’m a Doctor Who fan. The blue box and time vortex are a bit of me; the projects below the surface are real.

My work spans Python desktop applications, JavaScript and TypeScript, automation, local AI workflows, and experimental agent systems. I enjoy connecting the pieces, working through the awkward parts, and getting a project into a usable shape.

See what I’m building

ALSO EXPLORING / AI & SYSTEMS

A few experiments in AI.

Alongside application development, I work on prompting, structured agent workflows, and AI tooling: defining tasks, shaping outputs, and connecting steps people can actually use.

An evolving part of my practice. Public projects will be added as they’re ready.

ANOTHER SIDE OF THE WORK / 3D

3D & Animation.

Cinematic scenes, 3D assets, reusable character systems, and AI-assisted Blender/Unreal production.

The same approach behind my software and automation: build the pieces, connect the workflow, and iterate toward a finished result.
