Selected work
Kavish, running Claude Code and Codex sessions all day across a workstation and a hub VM.
Agent coding sessions on one PC and a home server were scattered across terminals with no shared view and no way to keep them alive across restarts.
Role Sole designer, builder and operator.

Kavish and the agent sessions that run his work.
Agent work across two subscriptions and an API lane needed one place that picks the model for each task, enforces the pick, and keeps both wallets inside their limits.

Kavish's own machines, agents and services, and the clients his VPS serves.

Walk-in customers of a retail store in Sacramento, and the staff who support them.
A retail store's self-service print and ship kiosk needed replacing with something the store could update without a vendor.
Role Sole designer, builder and operator, for the store as a client.
Result Running on the store floor since 2026; signed auto-updates install before logon; sessions end themselves after five idle minutes and bill only for the time used; 848 commits.
2026-06 to present. Python, Flask, Rust, Tauri v2, Square.
Customers sending files to the store, and the store's staff and managers.
