Become a sponsor to Domenico Lupinetti

Hi, I'm Ostico 👋

I'm Director of Engineering at Translated, where I lead the team behind translation infrastructure that moves millions of words. Nights and weekends I build the tools I kept waiting for someone else to build.

I directly maintain Matecat, Matesub and MyMemory along with all related services and several minor projects.

All of my main projects come from the same frustration: code that looks tested and isn't.

What you'd be funding

Test-Guard; a GitHub Action that catches pull requests which change behaviour without changing tests. Diff coverage, heuristic test-file matching across 19 languages, and per-file AI evaluation, combined into one gate. Coverage tools report a percentage. Test-Guard answers the question you actually asked in review: is this change tested?

Bruno MCP Studio; an MCP server that lets Claude, Cursor or Codex author, read and run Bruno API collections. Agents write API tests from memory, get the file format subtly wrong, and the suite goes green while testing nothing. This one builds on Bruno's own grammar package, so what lands on disk is a real collection your CI and your teammates can run. ~1,400 installs a month, and climbing.

Where the money goes

Into hours, mostly. Both projects are maintained outside my day job, which means every fix competes with sleep. Sponsorship buys:

• Faster triage — issues answered in days, not "when I next get a free weekend"
• CI minutes and model credits — Test-Guard's AI evaluation and the parity fixture suites cost real money to run
• The roadmap instead of only the things currently on fire

If your company already uses these

If Test-Guard is gating your pull requests, or your agents are writing your API suite, sponsoring is the cheapest maintenance contract you'll ever sign — and it keeps the thing you depend on maintained by the person who wrote it. Happy to talk about a custom tier.

Every contribution, whatever the size, tells me someone out there finds this useful. That's reason enough to keep going. 🙏
