projects

Ymir / self-hosted agentic AI assistant

2026 - present

  • Designed and built an agent kernel with a process table, up to 4 concurrent LLM agents, and a 3-level multilevel feedback queue (MLFQ) scheduler with per-level wall-clock allotments, demotion accounting, and periodic priority boost to prevent starvation.
  • Shipped 54 auto-discovered plugins behind an LLM intent router with a local Ollama shadow-routing tier and chat fallback; the LLM backend runs as headless Claude CLI subprocesses on a flat subscription, so there is no per-token API cost.
  • Built two transports: iMessage, which reads the macOS chat.db directly, and a FastAPI web app served over a Tailscale tailnet with bearer-token auth and a CIDR allowlist.
  • Enforced deny-by-default tool permissions for autonomous agents (explicit deny lists, read-only tool set for kernel agents) with a central capability manifest, read confinement, and SSRF egress denies, closing the prompt-injection "lethal trifecta"; guarded by a dedicated tool-lock regression suite.
  • Built long-horizon agent support: plan-before-execute with dry-run previews, structured checkpoints with bounded resume, relevance-gated memory recall, and a gated self-update pipeline with offline verify and rollback.
  • Hardened with a 1,382-test offline unit suite, a tool-free LLM grounding judge that checks agent output against sources, crash-consistent atomic state writes, and SQLite online-backup snapshots every 6 hours.

SoundCloud Converter / open source

github.com/alikhxn5/soundcloud-converter

  • Built an idempotent Python pipeline migrating a SoundCloud library to Apple Music (yt-dlp acquisition, ffmpeg AAC transcode, Apple MP4 metadata, Music.app import and playlist filing via AppleScript); deduped across runs with recorded provenance; backed by pytest, mypy, ruff, and GitHub Actions CI.
