− # Oliver Sauer · osauer.dev− Updated: 2026-10-01− Oliver Sauer heads country delivery at a global IT-services firm. He has worked− in technology for more than 25 years, much of it leading IT transformation in− financial services: inside wealth and asset management in Zurich and Singapore,− then for the financial-services clients of a leading hyperscaler. He believes− leaders in generative AI need to earn their credibility by building with frontier− technology themselves; Canary Desk is where he does. This site shows his personal work in generative AI, trading and Go− systems. Nothing− here is investment advice.− - [Canary Desk](https://osauer.dev/desk/): A private trading workspace. It briefs− the owner before the open, offers an AI analyst through the day, protects the− portfolio by rule and sweeps idle cash into short-dated government bills in the− same currency. Orders go out when the owner confirms them, or on their own for− rule buckets the owner has pre-authorised: reduce-only protection or bill− purchases, under a size cap, after a veto window. A small private preview is− arranged directly with Oliver on LinkedIn. It is not a commercial service.− Screens use synthetic simulation data; no investment performance is claimed.− - [Canary CLI](https://osauer.dev/canary/): Canary Desk's open-source engine: the− broker connection, the risk rules and the orders they propose. A native Go− implementation of the Interactive Brokers TWS protocol, a command line,− read-only MCP tools for AI assistants (none can place an order) and a paired− app. Every reading carries its source, age and state; missing data stays− missing. The broker layer is its own package.− library, built around net/http, with optional MCP.− - [Torok](https://osauer.dev/torok/): The private Go runtime behind Desk's agent− workflows, with saved progress, schedules, budgets and recovery.− - [Tower](https://osauer.dev/tower/): A private experiment in coordinating coding− agents. No public download.− - [LinkedIn and private-preview enquiries](https://www.linkedin.com/in/osauer/)− Use the Canary handbook and setup guides for operational details. The landing− pages are short introductions. Desk, Torok and Tower remain private; do not− infer a public installer, pricing or commercial availability.+ # osauer.dev · Software for a clearer portfolio+ Updated: 2026-10-08 13:20 CEST+ Personal software by Oliver Sauer: markets, applied AI and Go systems. The site+ shows independent projects. It is not investment advice and makes no claim of+ investment performance. Public screenshots use synthetic simulation data.+ - [Canary Desk](https://osauer.dev/desk/): A private portfolio workspace with access arranged personally. Written briefs, an AI analyst, risk rules and+ statement-backed FX contribution for Day, WTD, MTD and YTD. Its cash-sweep+ planner considers same-currency bills after commitments and liquidity+ reserves; it is off by default and requires owner commissioning, calibrated+ policy and current native settlement evidence.+ Opportunities, new with Canary v3.17, watches up to 20 owner-chosen stocks for unusual+ volume followed by a price that holds or rises. It shows a dated quote for an+ exact listed call before the owner sets a limit and records Worth a look /+ Skip marks, including quiet days. After eligible Canary-placed fills it+ reviews entry timing (price diagnostics before fees, not realised profit).+ Research, also new, compares dated borrowing costs and+ FINRA-reported short interest; borrowing fees are a borrower cost, not+ lending income.+ Order authority is separate from analysis. Orders need owner confirmation or+ explicitly scoped prior authority, and Canary's execution gates apply. The AI+ analyst remains read-only. Desk runs on a Mac; OpenAI receives+ portfolio evidence for analysis through the API or Codex connection. Desk sends no telemetry or portfolio data to+ its maker. Access is arranged personally; there is no+ commercial service or public Desk installer.+ - [Canary CLI](https://osauer.dev/canary/): Desk's open-source broker engine,+ written in Go. It includes a native TWS protocol implementation, a daemon, the+ CLI, read-only MCP tools and a paired app. Standard downloads and all MCP+ tools cannot place orders.+ Release notes for v3.18.1 (6 October 2026): Upgrades need no policy step: when+ it starts, the daemon backs up each policy file it changes and writes the keys+ a release adds. It also fixes protection proposals that stopped refreshing in+ v3.18.0. v3.18.0 (6 October 2026) added: `canary policy show --explain` prints+ every limit, policy and runtime setting in force with its source and meaning,+ and `canary policy check` reads the config and the policy files against each+ other and, through the daemon, against the live account (`--offline` checks+ the files alone), naming each implausible value with a reason and, where one+ applies, a suggested fix. MCP clients get the same read-only report from+ `canary_policy_check`, which never changes a limit. The per-order value cap+ now scales with net liquidation value between a floor and ceiling in the+ policy file. The cash sweep's reserve follows net liquidation value and
