About Magnus Opera

Magnus Opera builds tools for engineering teams that want faster feedback and a clearer view of software delivery.

Productivity problems rarely live in one place. They appear as duplicated CI logic, unnecessary rebuilds, opaque deployment steps, scattered artifacts, slow database changes, and status reports assembled by hand. We build tools that make this work explicit, repeatable, and easier to inspect.

Build and deployment on one graph

Terrabuild models projects, targets, dependencies, build steps, and deployments in one graph. It runs independent work concurrently, restores reusable results, and keeps the same delivery logic on developer machines and in CI.

Insights records what happened across those runs. Teams can inspect build history, graph data, cache activity, and shared artifacts without reconstructing the story from CI logs.

Together, Terrabuild and Insights shorten feedback loops and give engineering teams visibility based on work the system performed.

Focused tools for recurring engineering work

We also build smaller developer tools for problems we encounter while shipping software:

  • Starpac brings desired-state delivery to PostgreSQL and Cloudflare D1.
  • Forge keeps GitHub repositories, pull requests, issues, and workflows in one focused macOS workspace.
  • OpenApiGen generates readable TypeScript clients from OpenAPI definitions.
  • FScript provides a typed, embeddable language for controlled automation and product extensions.

Each tool has a narrow job. It should fit into an existing workflow without forcing the rest of the stack to change.

How we build engineering tools

Automate mechanics and expose decisions

Scheduling, caching, schema comparison, and code generation can be automatic. Their results must remain inspectable.

Measure systems, not individuals

Delivery data should reveal slow feedback, failures, and bottlenecks. It should not rank developers.

Keep development and CI aligned

A project should not require one workflow on a developer machine and another in automation.

Prefer explicit models and portable results

Dependency graphs, build reports, database packages, and generated clients should be readable and reusable.
