Tang.
I build local-first AI agents and observability tools that keep people informed, in control and able to inspect what the system knows.

Open case study ↗05 / System blueprint
I think in connections, not features.
Agent systems
Architectures, tool use, state and multi-agent coordination.
Developer tools
Observable workflows, automation pipelines and calm operational surfaces.
Human context
Interaction, speech, accessibility and the texture of everyday attention.

What I can build
Ideas become systems
when every layer connects.
