Creator of TAUI (Terminal Agent UI) Standards

TAUI Details

I am building TAUI (Terminal Agent UI), an open-source standard for autonomous agents in the terminal. Most agents today interact with shells by directly writing raw text or ANSI escape codes—it’s brittle and prone to hallucinations.

Generating executable UI code is dangerous (injection vectors) and token-expensive. I believe we should move from "text buffers" to "structured state documents".

I bridge the gap between latest research and product development. I build and own full stack applications backed by robust AI systems and scalable infrastructure.

I spend my free time reading textbooks, research papers and technical blogs on deep learning, reinforcement learning, agentic patterns, and physics. I love building core technologies from scratch to deeply understand their inner workings.
