ClientCast

What it is

ClientCast is a CLI tool for freelancers and agencies. It reads your recent commits, drafts a plain-English client update using Claude, and gives you a no-login link your client can open to read, comment, and approve.

When the client replies, Claude classifies it: approval, feedback, concern, or scope creep — with hours and dollars attached if it's new work.

The problem

Freelancers bleed hours on status updates and "can you also..." emails that quietly become unpaid work. ClientCast handles the communication loop and flags scope creep before it eats your margin.

How it works

1. Run clientcast in your project
2. Claude reads recent commits and drafts a client-facing update
3. You get a hosted approval link (Vercel Blob) — no login required for the client
4. Client comments → Claude classifies the reply and estimates scope if it's new work

Comes with an MCP server (clientcast-mcp) so Claude Code agents can drive the whole loop from inside any session.
