Side projects outside my day job. Most of them are local-first tools I built for problems of my own: my photos, my investments, my laptop, my browser.
Local-first face grouping and search for a personal photo library, using InsightFace. Also finds text in images, sorts photos into categories, spots duplicates and bursts, and builds a timeline with events and "On this day". Your photos never leave your computer.
Multi-agent RAG system for vendor data analysis. A ReAct SQL agent writes and runs SQL over SQLite, with a self-correcting retry loop. Switches between NVIDIA NIM, Azure OpenAI and OpenAI.
Teardown of seven agentic systems: Oracle Data Science Agent, Julius AI, DeepAnalyze-8B, Agno Dash, Airflow 3 + Astronomer Otto, Hermes Agent and Omnigent. Each covers architecture, a workflow diagram, how it plans and orders tasks, memory, and trade-offs.
Analysis of a 325-response student survey, cleaned and turned into learner personas, engagement tiers and teaching strategies, published as an interactive report.
Local-first dashboard for Indian mutual fund portfolios. Parses a password-protected CAMS CAS PDF, rebuilds lot history with FIFO matching and marks it to market against live NAVs.
Cleans and merges bank statements from HDFC, SBI, IDFC, ICICI and others (XLS, XLSX, CSV, including password-protected files) into one deduplicated ledger, with a dashboard on top.
Parser for CAMS + KFintech Consolidated Account Statement (CAS) PDFs that extracts mutual fund transactions.
Shows where disk space goes with a clickable treemap and plain-English advice on common folders, then finds byte-identical duplicate files left behind by backups and moves the extra copies.
Reads every temperature sensor on a Windows laptop (CPU, Intel iGPU, NVMe SSD, battery) plus power, load and clock speed. Logs everything to CSV and shows live graphs.
Always-on display for the Galaxy S25 that shows notifications as small coloured icons per app and per person, like the old notification LED. Needs no Accessibility service, so banking apps keep working.
Lightweight vanilla JS web apps backed by Firebase, starting with a tracker for credit card bills and personal debts.
Control the playback speed of any video on any website with the backtick key. Works with embedded players, iframes and shadow DOM. Originally published as YouTube Speed Controls.
Dark mode for any website in Chrome and Edge, including the built-in PDF viewer. Two modes: smart invert that keeps images natural, and a classic overlay.
Regex find-in-page with up to 8 searches at once, each in its own colour. Uses the CSS Custom Highlight API, so the page's DOM is never modified.
Opens a list of links or search terms in new tabs in one click.
Hardware, Python and web projects from my college years, including the Moodle attendance bot and the colour identifier.
