Work Experiences
2026–Present, Remote
Creator & Lead Product Architect, AppWeaver (Open Source)
- Command-Driven Omnichannel Platform (Web, Mobile PWA & Nostr): Envisioned, architected, and shipped a daily-driver local-first application platform and agentic AI workspace across 14 repositories using Bun, TypeScript, Solid.js, SQLite, and Nostr—delivering a rich desktop and responsive mobile PWA alongside NIP-04/NIP-44 encrypted Nostr DMs and CLI, where Zod-validated commands (
/app command --flag) dynamically dual-render as interactive WebSocket UI components or structured text. - Decoupled Capability Contracts & App Template SDK: Designed a zero-cross-dependency plugin architecture governed by versioned service contracts (
search:v1,resource-view:v1,system-one:v1, job scheduling, and model routing) alongside a standardized app template—enabling both humans and coding agents to scaffold, customize, and maintain isolated DB apps within a single bounded context (Locality of Behavior). - WebNode Server-Driven UI Framework: Engineered a declarative JSON UI schema and renderer in Solid.js featuring keyed state reconciliation and optimistic UI updates, delivering cohesive multi-app web interfaces without executing untrusted plugin code in the browser.
- Cooperative AI Runtime & Safe DB Mutation Governance: Built a multi-workspace AI runtime controller featuring a cooperative Prompt Queue (allowing users to insert, reorder, and edit follow-up prompts mid-run, safely pausing between LLM turns without aborting active streams), a WebSocket Tool Intervention Engine for real-time human-in-the-loop approvals, and the "AI Draft Pattern" (propose/revise/accept) so agents safely propose database changes without mutating user state directly.
- Federated Search, Sticky Cron Jobs & Inference Bridge: Built a deadline-isolated Universal Search coordinator across 5 core apps; a background Job Scheduler supporting natural-language cron tasks with opt-in sticky conversational sessions; an interactive Skill Learning workflow (
/skills learn) that synthesizes troubleshooting sessions into reusable workspace skills; and a shared OpenAI-compatible HTTP Inference Bridge for external developer tooling. - Serverless Lightning Marketplace & Automated Media Pipeline: Built a decentralized plugin marketplace using Bitcoin Lightning and cryptographic ownership proofs for serverless, cross-machine license recovery; established a Content Locality architecture with a zero-backend browser simulation mode and an automated Playwright-to-60fps WebM video showcase pipeline powering Todo App Landing Page.
Flagship AI-Native Applications Architected on AppWeaver:
- Second Brain (Deterministic Context & Code Intelligence): Built a hybrid indexing engine over Git snapshots using the TypeScript Compiler AST API (symbol declarations and 1–3 hop call/reference/inheritance graphs) and CommonMark AST chunks—ranked via weighted SQLite FTS5 and Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF) with a two-tiered retrieval format that cuts LLM context payload sizes by 71% (1,178 B vs. 4,130 B on benchmark symbol queries) while deferring deep AST inspection to targeted tool calls.
- Browser Actions (Dual-Model DOM Agent): Engineered resumable Playwright automation pairing a fast System One classifier (
system-one:v1via Jev API) to evaluate indexed viewport controls via typed choice/confidence contracts (automatically tripping a human-in-the-loop checkpoint on low confidence or login/CAPTCHA screens), delegating to a generative LLM only when free-form text synthesis is required. - PayPerQ (Confidential Compute AI Proxy): Built a privacy-first inference provider routing prompts through attested Tinfoil and AWS Nitro TEE enclaves for end-to-end encryption in transit and during inference, integrated with Bitcoin Lightning micro-top-ups and automatic session resumption.
- Daily-Driver Productivity Suite (Todo, Nostr Radar, Bookmarks, Files): Built a cohesive suite featuring tournament-style pairwise task prioritization ("duels") with schema-validated AI task breakdown, high-throughput batch social feed classification (scoring up to 200 topics/64 moods per round-trip via
system-one:v1+ Web of Trust filtering), and an integrated workspace Git diff/file explorer.

Independent Product Engineer & Open Source Creator
- AI Media & Automated Content Pipelines: Created Bitcoin Son Dakika (GitHub), an automated Nostr-based news outlet featuring programmatic content curation and AI-generated audio podcasts.
- Decentralized Browser Extensions & Publishing Tooling: Architected and shipped multiple open-source Nostr and Bitcoin Lightning (LNURL/NWC) products, including Nostrize (a browser extension enabling zero-fee P2P Bitcoin payments and crowdfunding across GitHub, YouTube, and X), Nostr Static (decentralized static site generator with RSS/Atom discovery), Bettr Quest (social quest platform prototype), and contributed to Lantern (web annotations and bookmarking browser extension).
- Full-Stack E-Commerce & Web Publishing: Engineered custom full-stack e-commerce applications using React, Node.js, and TypeScript, and built En Basit Bitcoin Kitabı, converting and translating an open-source Bitcoin book into an interactive Turkish web publication.
