Career Ops
HITL job search pipeline — AI periodically evaluates offers across 10 dimensions (A-F scoring), spins up ATS-optimized PDF resumes per listing, and pre-fills applications. I review, filter, and decide which ones to ship. Batch-processes 48+ offers in parallel (conductor + workers), scans portals with dedup, and adapts narrative framing per role archetype. Plugs into Life OS as a specialized skill.

Claude Code Power User
High-Agency · AI-FluencyMy daily workflow is a multi-agent orchestration lab. The problems I solve (context management, inter-agent communication, memory persistence) are the same ones enterprise customers face.
- ›Multi-agent orchestration: 5+ specialized agents running in parallel via tmux, each with its own context, skills, and hooks
- ›Inter-agent IPC: async communication protocol between agents via JSON — they consult each other for cross-domain decisions
- ›Memory persistence: pre-compact hook that crystallizes knowledge with Haiku before each compaction — memory that survives sessions
- ›Reusable custom skills: automated deploy, tech translation, design systems, SEO, career consulting
