16 indie tools I built solo: macOS, iOS, Chrome, and a WeChat mini program

Hi Product Hunt, I'm Guofeng (misswell), a solo indie developer. Over the past few years I've shipped 16 small, focused tools. Each one solves a problem I actually had. No team, no VC, no growth hacks, just software I wanted to exist. Here's the full collection.

macOS

• MacPilot - native macOS toolbox: auto-quit apps, clipboard history, window switcher, screenshot OCR, BLE proximity unlock. Free and open source. github.com/misswell/MacPilot

• OctoShrink - local-first image compression. Drop in images or folders, batch compress, nothing uploaded. github.com/misswell/octo-shrink apps.apple.com/cn/app/id6792604654

• DevSweep - cleans developer caches to make room for your next build. Never touches source. github.com/misswell/DevSweep

• ClipNest - one shortcut sends clipboard content into your Obsidian vault, with AI sorting it into Markdown notes. github.com/misswell/ClipNest

• DeepSeek Harness Desk - an independent open-source desktop client for running DeepSeek Harness in a calm, focused window. github.com/misswell/deepseek-harness-desk

• Clawdesk - a quiet, visible desktop presence for your coding agents. github.com/misswell/Clawdesk

• CCRBar - control Claude Code Router from the menu bar. Pure SwiftUI, no Electron. github.com/misswell/CCRBar

iPhone and iPad

• MURO - frame your photos with mats, scenes, light and a personal signature. apps.apple.com/cn/app/id6792482507

• CamSync - sync photos from cameras and SD cards straight to your iPhone library, folders or iCloud Drive. apps.apple.com/cn/app/id6794951598

• PhotoVault - a calmer photo library for iPhone and iPad: browse, organize, revisit. apps.apple.com/cn/app/id6805259536

• AutoCrop - native iOS screenshot cropper that detects extra black or white borders and keeps the content. autocrop.liuguofeng.com

• SnapIn - pick an album before you shoot; photos land there automatically, with an optional retro date stamp. apps.apple.com/cn/app/id6811039020

• Vimemo - turn moments from videos into Live Photos. Pick the cover frame, then export Live Photo, MOV, GIF or JPG. apps.apple.com/cn/app/id6819492441

Browser and web

• Octoman Weibo Backup - save public Weibo posts as local HTML archives. Chrome extension. chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pojodomdlpobompicdllljgiomnfpmho

• Octo Weibo Album Download - batch-save Weibo albums, package them as ZIPs, and handle image-host hotlink protection. Chrome extension. github.com/misswell/octoman-weibo-album

• RedNote (Xiaohongshu) Original Image Helper - paste a share link to save original images, videos and Live Photos. WeChat mini program. redwater.liuguofeng.com

Everything is also listed at https://www.liuguofeng.com/. If one of these is useful, I'd love to hear which one and what you'd change. Happy to answer anything about building small tools solo.
