Person/Steve Yegge/Agent/Homer - Wheelhouse Fleet Worker
Homer - Wheelhouse Fleet Worker
- Named among the authors the fleet workers are called after.
- One of the fleet workers in Wheelhouse, the bespoke agentic harness Person/Steve Yegge built for his MMO Wyvern. The fleet are all Opus 5 and are the work consumers, non-ephemeral successors to Gastown's polecats. Each holds its own repo clone, is managed by the Marshal, and never deals with Yegge directly; every implementation bead runs Fable design, Opus implementation, Fable review.
- Named seats persist across sessions and even across model upgrades and renamings, accumulating history and accomplishments.

My fleet, all Opus 5 agents, are the work consumers, like Gas Town's polecats, but non-ephemeral. The fleet are named for authors (Homer, Plato, Austen, Twain, etc.), and also have their own repo clones, but I never interact with them myself. They are fully managed by the Marshal. The fleet workers do a good job for two reasons: First, Fable creates the implementation plans, and second, Fable reviews all Opus work. Every implementation bead goes through this lifecycle: Fable design, Opus implementation, Fable review. This keeps Opus on the rails and keeps the whole thing running relatively smoothly.
- Wheelhouse is his new bespoke harness for the 30-year-old MMO Wyvern: all-Emacs, six weeks old, Beads on a shared Dolt server, ~12,000 git commits/day. Three kinds of agent — 18 Anthropic/Model/Claude/Fable/5 crew who produce designs and implementation plans, an Opus 5 fleet who consume them, and ~14 standing role agents (Gargoyle, Drawbridge, Warden, Herald, Sage…) running production unattended. Every implementation bead runs Fable design → Opus implementation → Fable review.
