⚡ About Me

I build developer-facing tools that make daily engineering work calmer, safer, and easier to repeat. My current focus ranges from full-stack system architectures to automated pipeline security and autonomous coding agents.

  • 👨‍💻 Specialist Programmer at Infosys, building robust aviation and UAV insurance platform workflows by day.
  • 🧪 Developer Tooling Alchemist by night, concocting VS Code plugins, browser extensions, and repository hygiene utilities.
  • 🤖 AI Architect teaching LLMs and coding agents how to behave in production environments without breaking stuff.
  • 🏆 Double Insta Awardee at Infosys for outstanding contribution and execution.
  • Driven by South Indian filter coffee and the sheer joy of automating away repetitive tasks.

🚀 Flagship Projects

Here are some of the developer tools I have designed and built:

🌟 Featured & Released

A lightweight, privacy-focused browser extension designed to support favorite creators automatically. Runs entirely locally to auto-like videos and Shorts using a customizable trusted channels allowlist, with zero tracking and low network overhead.

TypeScriptReactChrome Extension

A VS Code productivity extension that enriches the right-click menu with context-aware shortcuts. Features AST-powered refactoring shortcuts, quick file and symbol navigation, and customizable macros for fast text manipulation.

TypeScriptVS Code Extension

A presentation-focused VS Code extension that renders clean, real-time visual overlays of key combinations. Tailored for technical presenters, screencasters, online tutors, and pair-programming sessions.

TypeScriptVS Code Extension

A production-grade boilerplate for fast-track VS Code extension development. Pre-configured with rapid esbuild bundling, strict linting rules, unit test suites, and GitHub Actions CI/CD release workflow.

🛠️ In-Progress & Active Development

🛡️ seccureActive Development

An automated supply-chain security companion. Uses LLMs to interpret Dependabot vulnerability alerts and PRs, cross-references dependency manifests and lockfiles, analyzes breaking changes, and generates safe remediation paths.

PythonGitHub ActionsOpenRouter

A local-first project management system inspired by Jira, built specifically for coding agents. Exposes local databases and boards via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) so agents can inspect tasks, strategize edits, and update issues.

🌌 Open-Source Direction

I am especially interested in tools that make AI-heavy repositories easier to maintain: explicit repo contracts, safer generated-file boundaries, repeatable security checks, and better handoff between humans and coding agents.

📝 Proposals & Initiatives

  • .gitallow Specification · Status: RFC / In-Progress An allowlist specification designed to restrict AI-generated repository artifacts, aiming to minimize accidental commits of temporary agent logs, scratch files, and development workspace contexts.

🤝 Let's Connect & Build Something Cool!

I am based in India and open to collaboration around developer tools, VS Code extensions, browser extensions, open-source automation, and AI-assisted maintenance workflows.
