Rob Nash Lead Software Developer

I’m a senior iOS engineer with fifteen years shipping native apps, including as Principal Software Engineer at The Very Group and Senior iOS Engineer at Uptick. Since January 2026 I’ve run Async Digital with AI agents as the engineering team. I set the architecture, write the briefs, and build the checks that decide what lands. Everything marked Shipped below was built that way.

Seen to Fail

github.com/async-digital-ltd/seen-to-fail

Recording whether each automated check has ever been seen to catch a planted defect. Claude, an AI coding agent, built it under my direction, in a stack I don’t write, and the repository shows how that work was checked. Version 2 replays the project’s own checks against the defects planted for them, in the project’s own CI every week, and records the result with nobody typing it in. A person still opens the pull request that publishes it. The replay step is on the GitHub Marketplace as Run canfail, a wrapper around canfail, an open-source tool I didn’t write.
