SYSTEMS ONLINE

BETA

REPNOTES AI

PROBLEM

You're between sets with 60 seconds on the clock. Every workout app wants you to tap through menus and dropdowns to log what you just did. Logging a lift shouldn't take longer than doing one.

SOLUTION

One text input. Type "bench 225 3x5" and AI handles the rest, parsing exercise, weight, sets, and reps into structured data instantly.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

Fine-tuned Llama 3.1 8B via LoRA for 95-99% cost reduction

Full ML pipeline: dataset construction, dedup, quality scoring

Natural language → structured exercise logs in < 1 second

WHOOP MCP SERVER

PROBLEM

You're training for a race with a Whoop on your wrist collecting HRV, sleep, recovery, and strain around the clock. All that data and the decision of whether to train hard or rest still comes down to a gut feeling.

SOLUTION

Connects your Whoop to Claude through MCP. Instead of staring at recovery scores and guessing, you ask Claude what to do today and it tells you based on your actual HRV, sleep, and strain data.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

Acute-to-chronic workload ratio (ACWR)

HRV trend analysis

Cumulative sleep debt tracking

Race readiness scoring across 7 MCP tools

PROBLEM

AI coding agents waste tokens on irrelevant context. Static docs like CLAUDE.md cause context rot — performance degrades as input tokens increase, even on simple tasks. RAG retrieves code, not knowledge. The longer the session, the worse it gets.

SOLUTION

A context graph engine that builds a queryable knowledge graph from code, git history, and agent interactions. Serves the smallest possible set of high-signal tokens on demand via MCP and A2A protocols. Tracks what agents already know. Prevents context rot.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

Queryable knowledge graph from code, git, and agent interactions

MCP + A2A protocol support — works with any agent framework

Context rot prevention based on Chroma/Anthropic research

Open source — shipping soon

CERTIFICATIONS

AWS Certified Solutions Architect — Associate (2023)

BACKGROUND

Backend engineer with 3.5+ years building event-driven systems, data pipelines, and microservices in Python, TypeScript, and AWS at Capital One. Built a CLI that gives Claude and other AI agents on-demand access to centralized documentation across repos and services, and a Claude Code Skills marketplace to centralize AI tooling for engineers. On personal time, I'm building a Whoop MCP server that connects biometric data to Claude for personalized coaching and an AI workout app currently in TestFlight beta — including fine-tuning Llama 3.1 8B via LoRA for 95-99% cost reduction over the Claude API baseline. I studied biotech, which sounds like a left turn, but really I've just always been obsessed with how systems work and how to make them perform better. Now I'm training for an IronMan 70.3 to put it all to the test.
