Lattice turns spare Claude time into side-project help

Lattice is a small open experiment built on top of GitHub. A project request is a GitHub repo tagged with lattice-node and a prompt.md file that says what should be built. A participant clones Lattice as a controller, and its search for those repos, read only the prompt.md file, check the request for safety, build the result, and send it back as a pull request.

The repo owner then decides whether to accept the work. There is no central queue; GitHub search acts as the discovery system. Running it inside a is recommended.

The idea only works if enough people create requests and enough people use Claude to answer them.

Key points

  • Lattice uses GitHub repos as places to post requests and receive finished work.
  • A repo becomes a request by adding the lattice-node tag and a prompt.md file.
  • read the prompt, run a , build the result, and send a pull request.
  • The original repo owner chooses whether to accept the submitted work.
  • Running the system in a is recommended for isolation.
