"Some are born great, some hack their way into greatness."
Something is slithering through the walls of the contribution graph...
The Basilisk only answers to its master — and it feeds on every commit.
Only the projects that survived all three tasks get to keep the Cup.
| Trial | Project | The Challenge |
|---|---|---|
| 🐉 The Dragon | research-agent | LangGraph-orchestrated research agent — tool use (web search + arXiv), persistent memory (SQLite + FAISS), structured briefs. Faced down the hardest task first. |
| 🌊 The Black Lake | multilingual-rag-eval | Multilingual RAG evaluation across Hindi and English — dove deep for retrieval that actually holds up, custom eval metrics, $0 cost. |
| 🌀 The Maze | llm-red-team-eval | Automated LLM red-teaming — hallucination detection, prompt-injection resistance, refusal analysis. Built to find the trap before an attacker does. |
| 📖 The Restricted Section | knowledge-mcp-server | Local MCP server + CLI turning PDFs/notes into a semantic knowledge base — FAISS + sentence-transformers, hybrid BM25/dense search, cross-encoder reranking. |
| ⚔️ The Champion's Duel | search-ranking-service | Production search ranking microservice — BM25 + semantic reranking, FastAPI, Docker. No stunning spells, just results that rank correctly. |
| Project | What it does |
|---|---|
| book-recommendation-system | Content-based + collaborative filtering book recommender with Streamlit UI |
| garbage-classification-deep-learning | Deep learning image classifier for waste sorting — CNN with transfer learning |
| real-estate-investment-advisor | Real estate investment analysis tool — ROI calculation, market comparison, risk assessment |
| brand-visibility-project | Brand visibility analysis using NLP — sentiment analysis, media monitoring, competitive intelligence |
| brickview2.0 | Property analytics dashboard — SQLite backend, data visualization |

I don't build demos. I build things that work when it matters.
- 🪄 Accio Data — pulls exactly the right context, nothing extraneous
- 🛡️ Protego — input validation, guardrails, prompt-injection defense
- 🧠 Legilimens — LLM evaluation & interpretability
- 🕊️ Expecto Patronum — graceful fallback under real-world load
- 🧹 Wingardium Leviosa — CI/CD, shipped past
localhost - 🌀 Confundo — adversarial red-teaming, breaking it before someone else does
- 😄 Riddikulus — five-minute incident fix, not a five-hour fire drill
- 🔓 Alohomora — reverse-engineering APIs with no manual
Firebolt-class, not Nimbus 2000 nostalgia — if it's not fast enough to keep up, it doesn't make the team.
Endgame: agentic AI systems that are measured, monitored, and trusted in production. No checkers with side projects — pawns (evaluation pipelines) advancing, knights (agent tooling) deep in enemy territory, queen (full production-grade agent stack) coming out soon.
