I build AI agents end to end. I build them with agents too.

- 🎓 Buddy - a local-first AI agent for the curious, on macOS and Windows. hibuddy.in
- Layered on the open-source OpenCode runtime. I built the product around it and ship it alone.
- 40+ custom tools, seven subagents, long-term memory, a skill manager that installs signed packages, MCP sign-in.
- Signed auto-updating builds for two platforms, with separate Stable and Beta channels.
- 2,600+ commits and 77 releases since February 2026.
- 🧪 Slop Shame - a browser extension that scores your LinkedIn feed for AI slop. Runs on your machine: no model, no server. Every change to the scoring engine is measured against frozen baselines before it ships.
- 📸 SlopShot - a screenshotting app for agent harnessers.
- 🧩 buddy-skills - the skills that ship with Buddy, published so anyone can install them.
I run several coding agents at once (Claude Code, Codex), each in its own git worktree, each with a written lane so they don't step on each other. Tests, type checks and conformance suites keep them honest. I write the tools they run on: MCP servers, skills, plugins, subagents.
I also teach it. The Engineering with Agents roadshow takes hands-on workshops to engineering, management and medical colleges across Bengaluru.
- 🎧 Citadel - a data pipeline over a 1,761-song discography: phased loads from an API into SQLite, a cleaning pass before anything is embedded, hash-checked embeddings, durable workflows on Inngest.
- 🏫 FalconAI - an AI platform for schools. Next.js and PostgreSQL, a 36-model multi-tenant schema, streaming chat, English and Hindi OCR. 250+ teachers used it; two schools ran a six-month paid pilot.
- 📚 Lex Reader - an AI article reader: RAG over a saved library with Qdrant, and a credibility layer that marks bias, clickbait and logical fallacies in place.
- 📖 injectbook - turn any ebook into an agent skill.
- 📝 pg - essay agent - a terminal essay writer that drafts one sentence per pass, with tool calls and editor cycles.
- ✍️ Beyond the Code - reflections after 365 days of shipping code.
- 🤖 ChatGPT - How does it work! - deep dive into how LLMs work.
- 🔬 The Scientific Method Doesn't Exist - on epistemology and falsifiability.
If you're building something in applied AI, I'd love to chat.
