Tools

12 tools listed at last check
  • get_overview Positioning, background and what makes him different from other fractional CTOs. Start here.
  • assess_fit Compares a description of a project, business or problem against a fixed published rule and returns a verdict: good_fit, mixed, poor_fit or insufficient_information. Wording alone never produces poor_fit. Where the text touches one of the things Ashley turns down, the result lists questions in ask_t
  • get_services The three ways an engagement runs (Build, Partner, Consult), the fixed-price diagnostic most engagements start with, how the process works, and which client surfaces he builds: desktop applications, browser extensions, chat-platform integrations and web. Use this for any question about platforms, ap
  • list_work Summaries of the selected work, with the slug needed for get_case_study.
  • get_case_study Full detail for one engagement: the situation, what was built, the engineering decisions and why they were made, the stack, and where there is one, the commercial outcome in indexed figures.
  • get_ai_capability Which AI techniques he has built in production (prompting, retrieval, fine-tuning, MCP servers, local inference) and when each one is the right choice. Use this for questions about AI, automation or data privacy.
  • search_insights Search his articles on technical leadership, fractional CTO work, AI and building SaaS. Returns titles, summaries and the matching passage. Call get_insight with a slug for the full text of one.
  • get_insight The complete text of one article, by slug. Use after search_insights, and only when the summary is not enough to answer the question.
  • get_faqs The questions buyers ask, with his answers. Pass a query to get the relevant ones; omit it to list every question without the answers.
  • get_contact How to reach Ashley: email, the contact page, and a booking link when one is live. Use when the person wants to make contact.
  • get_evidence Where the numbers on the site come from, for when someone asks whether they can be trusted. Returns one statement of provenance: the figures are counts from live systems, self-reported with a stated method and not independently audited, and Ashley will run any of them in front of someone who asks. P
  • get_privacy What this connector and the website do with data, and what they do not. Use this if the person asks about privacy, tracking, cookies, GDPR, or what Ashley can see of this conversation.
