Portfolio

canvasbuddy Next.js · Supabase

Talk to your Canvas schedule. A safety-first assistant over the Canvas LMS API with grades, deadlines and assignment context, plus a student-approval submission flow.

caltrain map ESP32 · C++

Live train positions from the 511 GTFS-Realtime feed, pushed to a physical LED map on the wall. The trains move; so do the lights.

benefy Next.js · TypeScript

A self-serve benefits screener for San Francisco. One conversation screens you against 17 programs, and every verdict comes from a unit-tested rules engine rather than the model — the agents only gather and explain.

karl Dart · Flutter

A festival app that wants you to stop looking at it. Everything at Outside Lands costs you something else — a set for a secret dish, a walk across the park for a headliner — and karl says the trade out loud before you take it.

synqit Jac

Shared source control without branches — push an intent, an integration agent folds it into main. The repo is modelled as a dependency graph.

stok Swift · FastAPI

A trading agent that remembers how you trade, researches with specialist sub-agents, and proposes a sized trade — never executing without approval. Runs from the Mac notch.

Receipts TypeScript

Ask a spoken question about someone’s recent work, get a cited evidence packet back. One hard rule, enforced in code: no source link, no sentence.

Collab Node · Kylon

Two devs, one repo, zero merge conflicts. Each developer’s coding agent watches the other’s in-flight edits and flags collisions while the code is still being written.

Kylon Pad ESP32-S3 · C

A hardware pad for voice conversations with your workspace and its agents — press, speak, press. Transcribed and posted straight to the channel.

MicScribe ESP32-S3 · C++

Push-to-talk speech-to-text running entirely on a microcontroller — capture, filtering and an HTTPS upload, all on-device. No host helper.
