After 100,000-token Codex runs, one builder made a solo-friendly agent that actually finishes

The author says repeated Codex-style agent runs on real tasks burned through 100,000+ tokens over 8 hours and still left unfinished work, so they built Fulminare.
- It reads existing context from email, calendar, docs, Notion, and Drive so it does not re-derive what it already knows.
- It executes on a real machine: shell commands, file edits, and browser automation.
- Most turns finish in under a minute because it is doing work instead of reasoning in loops.
- Each job runs in an isolated, encrypted sandbox that disappears when the job is done.
- The tool is free, requires no card, and has no seat minimums.
The post is essentially a product feedback request for a solo-founder-friendly agent tool.
