Every figure on this page is counted from the source, not estimated. Nothing
here is a claim about revenue, users or paying clients — the projects are built
and deployed, and where that is all they are, it says so.

## What he has actually shipped

- **2 open-source MCP servers.** `deputy-mcp` (MIT) exposes Deputy workforce
  data to any MCP client: eleven read tools, five opt-in write tools, running
  locally under the permissions of the token it is given. Wavr (AGPL) ships a
  read-only MCP server over stdio and HTTP so agents can query room presence as
  structured context.
- **2 RAG pipelines.** PitchPilot answers a live sales objection mid-pitch using
  semantic search over Gemini embeddings in Supabase pgvector. `rag-demo` is the
  same technique stripped to its essentials and published: chunking, embeddings,
  a pgvector index, retrieval, and a grounded answer that refuses to invent
  facts.
- **A multi-agent pipeline that finished something.** Research → draft → edit →
  export, on the Claude API, producing an 84-page book of roughly 20,900 words
  as PDF and valid EPUB3.
- **A multi-tenant SaaS platform, built solo in six weeks.** Lucky Cat: 65
  tables and 120 row-level security policies on Supabase Postgres, 26 edge
  functions, 144 migrations, Stripe Connect billing, carrying three separate
  products.
- **A protocol with three independent implementations.** SCPE: verifiers in
  Python, Go and Rust that must reach the same verdict across 18 conformance
  vectors. Apache-2.0, published on PyPI.

  Claude pipeline that produced a published book; free sample at the link.

## Background

Brazilian, based in Limerick, Ireland. Graphic Design degree, which shows in the
interfaces: spacing, contrast and layout are deliberate. Self-taught in Python,
Supabase, Cloudflare and Claude orchestration by shipping Lucky Cat solo, front
to back, rather than through coursework.
