Ethan O'Brien
Ethan O'Brien's work was selected for the XERJ Corpus Hub, the open reference memory AI coding agents search before they write code. When an agent meets the same problem, it gets this implementation back as a worked example, with the author and the repository attached.
Totals across every corpus @ethanaobrien appears in; a commit selected for two corpora counts once. Files and lines count the selected commits; each corpus indexes the whole repository at its pinned commit.
What an agent can do with the ew corpus
ethanaobrien/ew: A sif2 server
- Look up how ew implements server-emulator, sif2, with answers cited to file and line.
- Reuse a worked example: the commit “Redo web error handling” (8 files · Rust).
- Answer from ew's real Rust source instead of memory (API design and specification).
- Where does ew handle “Redo web error handling”?
- How does ew implement server-emulator?
- What does src/router do in ew?
Search the GitHub repository ethanaobrien/ew with XERJ (https://hub.xerj.org/corpus/ethanaobrien--ew). Run these in a shell, in order, and check each result before the next: 1. xerj --help (success: it prints usage). If xerj is missing: curl -fsSL https://xerj.org/get | sh 2. git clone https://github.com/ethanaobrien/ew ew && git -C ew checkout dc6f345052160168a66fe296beb61b37605b6e80 3. Start a local node and leave it running: xerj --insecure --data-dir ./xerj-data 4. xerj autoindex ./ew --url http://127.0.0.1:9200 --prefix ew --progress plain 5. xerj autoindex map --url http://127.0.0.1:9200 Then answer my question from the indexed files and cite the ax_path of every hit.

The corpus is the whole repository at the pinned commit, not only the files of the selected commit.
Not installable yet: this corpus is not in the hub registry until its licence review passes, so xerj corpus add and xerj ask cannot fetch it. It becomes installable when this card says live in the hub.
Sign in with GitHub or Hugging Face to see more: every selected commit in full (commit date, every folder, licence review state, pin) and the pack builds of each corpus.
