Senior software engineer at Hevo Data. I build connector platforms and the agent tooling that generates and operates them, and write down what breaks on the way.

About

Graduated from IIT Roorkee in chemistry, then spent my freshman year discovering I would rather build software. I have been doing that since.

These days that mostly means connector platforms, the frameworks underneath them, and the agent tooling that generates and operates both. And writing down what breaks.

Experience

Projects

  • Sep 2026 - Present
    Open SourceTypeScriptBunInkRust

    A configurable one-to-three-row statusline for OpenAI Codex CLI.

    • Shows documented session telemetry including model, context, Git state, usage, and reset timers.
    • Provides an interactive terminal configuration UI and a browser playground for layouts, widgets, and ANSI themes.
    • Adds telemetry through a versioned Rust patch and renders the statusline locally with Node/TypeScript; supported Codex releases are listed explicitly in the project’s compatibility matrix.
  • Aug 2026 - Present
    Open SourceGoReactAstroTailwind CSSSQLiteMySQLMariaDB

    A local, read-only MySQL and MariaDB binlog viewer, decoder, and transaction analyser.

    • Indexes decoded binlogs in SQLite and presents a filterable, virtualized event stream with transaction grouping and row-image inspection.
    • Compares go-mysql decoding with native mysqlbinlog output, and reports six documented transaction and position anomalies.
    • Supports local file watching and optional replication streaming; releases are available through Homebrew, Docker, a shell installer, and go install.
  • Sep 2026 - Present
    Open SourceGoBubble TeaCLITUI

    A CLI and interactive TUI for running AI coding assistants in isolated profiles.

    • Gives each profile a separate virtual home, configuration, token state, and history.
    • Supports Antigravity CLI, Gemini CLI, Claude Code, and OpenAI Codex, with agent-aware profile selection and quota telemetry.
    • Includes browser OAuth PKCE login, session browsing and resumption, diagnostics, and Bubble Tea controls.
  • May 2026
    Open SourceAgent SkillsPythonShellJSON Schema

    A cross-agent coding-session handoff harness.

    • Stores typed, schema-validated handoff briefs in the repository so work can resume across sessions and agents.
    • Documents verified handoff and hook behavior for Claude Code and Codex CLI, plus verified Antigravity CLI support with its documented registration step.
    • Uses a shared brief format for checkpointing, scoped subagent work, and drift checks.

Interests

I try to make the most out of my time by exploring the latest technological advancements. Apart from being a tech enthusiast, I enjoy most of my time playing guitar. I have an OCD for music and love to have a sorted music library.

When forced indoors, I follow a number of sci-fi genre movies and television shows and a large amount of my free time exploring new advancements in every field. Some of my time is invested in learning how our brain functions.
