I build AI systems that remain observable, reviewable, and safe to operate.

My work sits at the intersection of LLM agents, AI for code, developer tooling, and distributed reinforcement learning. I turn uncertain model behavior into inspectable engineering evidence—from repository-scale agents and evaluation pipelines to AST transformations and parallel training systems.

Now

Recent, verifiable signals from the work.

  1. Six production pull requests merged into Everything Claude Code. The work spans metrics performance, cross-process dashboards, installer ownership, hook contracts, failure containment, and Unicode-safe CI.

  2. Current top-10 ECC contributor by commit count. Seventeen upstream commits have landed in a project with more than 260k GitHub stars.

  3. Earned GitHub's Galaxy Brain achievement through accepted, source-traced answers in open technical discussions.

  4. Exploring reliable agent infrastructure and scalable RL. Current systems work covers auditable repository maintenance, structural code transformation, and distributed Actor–Learner training.

Open-source impact

Production changes, not drive-by patches.

External core contributor

Everything Claude Code

I contribute regression-driven changes across ECC's runtime and control surfaces. Bounded resource use, atomic transitions, explicit failure semantics, and focused tests ship with the feature.

01

Performance & observability

Replaced repeated full-history reads with O(1) stable snapshots and O(Δ) catch-up, with an approximately 3,099× steady-state speedup on a 40.5 MB fixture. Added a monotonic SQLite cursor for cross-process dashboard output.

Hook & install lifecycle

Made manual Claude hook installation ownership-aware and idempotent across install, upgrade, doctor, repair, and uninstall. Preserved explicit output while eliminating accidental payload echo and bounding input.

03

Failure containment & CI

Prevented semantic failures from authorizing observation archival, retained data across timeout and interruption paths, and restored the repository's Unicode-safety gate without losing localized meaning.

Selected systems

Tools built around explicit contracts, evidence, and rollback paths.

RepoPilot

Agent infrastructure

An auditable AgentTeam for repository maintenance. It moves an issue or failed CI run toward a verified pull request while preserving decisions, approvals, tool calls, evidence, and rollback points.

codemod-pilot

Code intelligence

A safe, example-driven codemod engine. Give it before-and-after snippets and it infers a structural transformation, scans a repository, previews the diff, and prepares a rollback path before writing.

AI Evaluation Pipeline Automation Engineer

Led the 0→1 build of EvalHub, unifying performance benchmarks, skill evaluation, baselines, Meego releases, and Bits governance in one React + Fastify platform. Extended the shared evaluation pipeline with multi-turn skills, non-text artifacts, release gates, and a 70-case / 72-turn regression baseline.

AI Engineering Automation Intern

Built an Aime Workflow → PE → Skill system for MR defect tracing and automated code review. The production workflow reduced one review cycle from 20–30 minutes to 2.5–3 minutes while maintaining high-confidence localization and low false-positive rates.

  • 217 defects traced
  • 98% localization accuracy
  • <3% false positives
Ongoing

Independent open-source engineering

Building agent infrastructure, repository-scale code transformations, cross-platform CLI tools, and distributed reinforcement-learning systems.

Engineering principles

Evidence before confidence
Reproduce the failure and make every conclusion inspectable.
Safe autonomy
Useful tools, explicit boundaries, approval gates, and reversible actions.
Systems over demos
Typed contracts, tests, observability, and deployment paths around the model.
Performance with a baseline
Measure against a frozen reference and understand regressions before promotion.
