Dan Calin - About Me 👋

> Building real things with AI — and learning to build real AI.

I'm a developer exploring where modern software meets AI. I use AI to ship faster,
and increasingly I build AI *into* the things I make — voice agents, LLM tooling,
and automation. This profile is a running log of that progress: improving how I
work with AI, while growing the engineering skills underneath it.

• 🌱 Currently exploring: LLM-powered apps, voice agents & tool-calling, ML-driven automation
• 🧪 Approach: ship small, real projects → learn what breaks → go deeper
• 💬 Open to: opportunities, collaboration, and a good technical conversation

🚀 Featured Projects

| Project | What it is | Built with |
|---------|-----------|------------|
| 🎙️ Miko — Voice AI Agent | A personal voice assistant for Windows powered by Gemini Live — controls the PC, Discord, web and files by voice. Ships a FastAPI tool-server so external agents can call its tools. | Python · Gemini Live · FastAPI |
| 🦉 Sentinel — NL Linux Manager | A safety-first CLI that turns plain English into one Linux shell command — with a destructive-command filter and a mandatory y/n approval gate so nothing runs on its own. Multi-provider (Claude, GPT, Gemini, OpenRouter, Ollama). | Python · LLM APIs · Rich |
| 🧠 Shared Agent Memory | A local coordination layer for AI coding agents — shared MCP memory, a file-claim board, and Claude/Codex edit warnings so multiple agents can work together more safely. | Node.js · MCP · Claude Code · Codex |
| 🧪 Beta Testing Manager | A dark-themed Windows overlay app for beta testers — manage test lists, log OBS timestamps, and keep everything on top of any app. Clean MVC architecture. | Python · OBS WebSocket · Supabase |
| 💬 VekiniChat | A private, Discord-style voice & text chat app for friends — servers, channels, crystal-clear voice, screen-share & roles. Native desktop. | Tauri · Vite · Supabase · LiveKit |

🤖 How I work with AI

I treat AI as a pair-programmer and a force-multiplier — not autopilot. Two threads
run through my projects:

1. **Building *with* AI — using AI tools to design, scaffold, debug and refactor
faster, while staying in the driver's seat on architecture and trade-offs.
2. Building *AI in*** — wiring real LLM capabilities into products: voice I/O,
tool-calling, retrieval, and agents that actually *do* things on your machine.

Every project here taught me something the last one didn't — and that's the point.
