TL;DR
DD shipped six paid products in a single day. The thesis is simple: agent infra for small teams. $20 a month each, $50 for the bundle. Here's what we shipped, what's alpha, and what's still being wired.
We keep saying it. The agent infra layer for small teams does not exist yet.
Big shops have internal platforms. Solo devs scrape by with shell scripts and a prayer. The middle, the two to ten person team running real agent workloads in production, has nothing built for them. They are gluing together OpenTelemetry, half-finished MCP servers, a Notion doc full of prompts, and a billing alert that fires three days too late.
So today DD shipped six paid products at once. All of them target that exact gap. All of them are $20 a month. The bundle is $50 a month for the lot. There is also a teaser at the bottom for a seventh that is not quite ready to price.
Before the tour, the honest part. Most of these are alpha. Some are still in private repos while we tighten the rough edges. Clerk Billing is not fully wired yet, so for now there is one waitlist link instead of six checkout buttons. We will flip the switch when the plumbing is done. Posting now because shipping public beats polishing in private.
If you want the longer version of how all of this got built in one overnight session, we wrote that up too: 12 tools in one night with Claude Code.
Agent infra for small teams. That is the whole pitch.
Not for hyperscalers. Not for hobbyists who can live without observability. For the team that has three agents running on a Hetzner box, a Claude Code workflow that touches production, and zero appetite for paying $400 a month per seat to a vendor that wants a SOC 2 review before they will return your call.
Each product solves one piece. The bundle solves the stack.
Agents write to disk. Agents corrupt disk. Agents do it on Tuesday at 3am while you are asleep.
agentfs is a snapshot-aware filesystem layer. Every write goes through a journal. Every agent run gets a checkpoint. When the agent goes off the rails and rm -rf's your node_modules for the third time, you roll back in one command. Local first, with a sync mode for teams.
This is the most production-ready of the six. We have been dogfooding it on the DD app farm for two weeks. Public repo coming this week.

The DD Skills Marketplace is the free side: a public registry of Claude Code skills, the same way npm hosts packages. Search, install, share.
Skills Pro is the paid layer on top. Private skills for your team. Versioned releases with changelogs. A real CI pipeline that lints, tests, and benchmarks your skills before they ship to your team's machines. Plus the SkillForge runner which compiles new skills from your own codebase. We covered the runner side in the SkillForge CI and Cost Tape post.
If your team writes more than five skills, the manual approach falls over fast. Skills Pro is the answer.
Claude Code hooks are powerful. They are also a footgun. One bad pre-commit hook and the agent loops forever burning tokens. One bad post-tool hook and your repo is full of generated junk.
Hookyard is a hook registry plus runner. The free tier ships the public hooks. Hookyard Pro adds the team layer: private hooks, audit logs of every hook fire, an emergency kill switch when an agent gets stuck in a loop, and quota enforcement so a runaway hook cannot rack up a $400 bill overnight.
This pairs naturally with Cost Tape. Hookyard fires the hook. Cost Tape watches the meter.
MCP servers are the new lambdas. Everyone is writing them. No one is operating them.
MCPaaS Plus is hosted MCP. You point it at a repo, it spins up the server with auth, rate limits, and structured logs. Plus it ships with MCP Lens integration, so when an agent calls a broken tool you get the full request and response, not a vague timeout.
The Plus tier adds private servers, custom domains, and pinned versions. Most teams hit the free tier ceiling within a week of using MCP seriously, so we are pricing the upgrade where it should be: cheap.
Agents do weird things. Then they do them again, but only sometimes, and only in production.
TraceTrail records every step an agent takes: tool calls, model responses, retries, branch decisions. The free tier keeps seven days. TraceTrail Plus extends retention to ninety days, adds replay (rerun a past trace against a new prompt or model to see what would have changed), and ships diff view so you can compare two runs side by side.
This is the closest thing to a real debugger that exists for agents right now. If you have ever stared at a transcript wondering why the agent picked the wrong file, this is the tool.
Bonus: TraceTrail Plus integrates with PromptLock for prompt versioning, so every replay is tied to the exact prompt revision that ran.
The local Cost Tape CLI tracks token spend across every model, every CLI, every agent. Cost Tape Cloud is the team mode. Centralized dashboard. Per-developer breakdowns. Budget alerts that fire before the bill, not after.
We built this because we lived the $400 overnight bill. Once is a lesson. Twice is a budgeting failure. Cost Tape Cloud makes twice impossible.
If you only buy one product on this list, it pays for itself the first time it stops a bad run.

Six products, $20 each, equals $120 a month if you buy them separately. The DD bundle is $50 a month, all six included. We can go that low because we are not paying enterprise sales reps and we are not running a marketing department.
The math is simple. If TraceTrail Plus prevents one bad debugging session, it pays for the whole bundle. If Cost Tape Cloud catches one runaway agent, it pays for the year.
The bundle is the right answer for any team running real agent workloads. Buying just one of these is fine, but the products compose. agentfs snapshots a run that TraceTrail recorded that Cost Tape priced that Hookyard kicked off from a hook stored in Skills Pro that called an MCP server hosted on MCPaaS Plus. The whole stack working together is the actual product.
This is alpha. Not GA. Not even open beta on most of them. Here is the real status board.
Clerk Billing is not yet wired. We are doing waitlist signups today and converting to paid checkout when billing is ready, which is days, not weeks. Founding members on the waitlist get the bundle at $30 a month for the first year.
Repos go public as each product hits a state we are not embarrassed to ship. Some this week. Some next month. The free tiers ship first. The Pro features unlock as they stabilize.

The seventh product is not on the price sheet yet, but it is too useful to leave out.
Agent Eval Bench is a benchmarking harness for your agents. Run a fixed task suite against your current setup. Get pass rates, cost per task, latency, and a regression view across runs. The Plus tier will add custom task packs, scheduled benchmarks, and CI integration so you catch agent regressions before merge.
We are still tuning the eval methodology. Pricing lands when the methodology is honest. Probably $30 a month, probably bundled at $60. Watch for the launch post.
One waitlist link, since Clerk Billing is not live yet:
You pick the bundle or any individual product when checkout flips on. Founding rate locks in for everyone on the list before launch day. We will email when each product is ready to use, in the order they ship, smallest blast radius first.
This is the bet. Agent infra for small teams. Six products today, more shipping every week. If you have been waiting for someone to build the layer that sits between "I wrote a shell script" and "I have a platform team," this is it.
