IT administration, automation and AI-assisted engineering

I am Mel. This is where I document the tools I build and the systems I keep running, with the safety controls and trade-offs left in rather than polished away.

01 / Focus

What I work on

  • IT administration

    Keeping systems, access and integrations running, with scripted installs, recorded state and a written way back.

    Systems & Infrastructure
  • Automation

    Small, observable automations: feed polling, bots, scheduled jobs, dry-run first, with a kill switch.

    Baguio Outage Radar
  • AI-assisted engineering

    AI agents as working tools inside strict, reviewable boundaries: read-only by default, hash-bound approvals.

    BRO
  • Systems integration

    Connecting public data, messaging and local runtimes through narrow, well-tested interfaces.

02 / Case studies

Featured projects

Five sanitized case studies. All sources are private, so each one shows architecture, decisions and safety notes instead of code.

  • Offline Android finance app

    Peyvor

    A standalone, offline Android app for tracking bills, loans, salary and weekly cash flow. Data stays on the phone, encrypted, and the app is built without internet permission.

    • Interactive demo
    • Mobile
    • Security
  • Personal AI operations assistant

    BRO

    A desktop assistant that drives an AI coding agent CLI as a local runtime. It is read-only by default, and any write needs a human approval that is bound to the exact change by a hash.

    • Interactive demo
    • AI
    • Automation
    • Security
  • Programmatic video pipeline (evaluation)

    VideoLab

    A local-first, scriptable video editing pipeline: transcript and scene analysis, a reviewable edit list, captions, animated overlays, GPU rendering and automated quality checks.

    • Interactive demo
    • Media
    • AI
    • Automation
  • Telegram alert bot with staged rollout

    Baguio Outage Radar

    A Telegram bot that tells each subscriber only about the power interruptions that affect the areas they saved, built from a public outage data feed and restored with a dry-run-first rollout.

    • Automation
    • Infrastructure
    • Security
  • Operations practice case study

    Systems & Infrastructure

    How I approach running software: hardened services, scripted installs, rollback-first change management and quiet, useful alerting. Qualitative, drawn from the other projects.
