AI infrastructure / agent systems / useful products

hi, i'm rishabh. i build systems that make ambitious software more dependable.

i'm an AI engineering student at penn state, currently working on infrastructure and platform systems at Cisco (opens in a new tab) in san francisco.

outside work, i ship agent protocols, developer tools, research demos, and small products people can actually open.

selected proof

three systems, three kinds of evidence.

collection paths

managed server
BMC sensors

Simplified infrastructure simulator map connecting collection paths to switches, servers, and BMC sensors.

01 / infrastructure simulation

Cisco Nexus One: Hyperfabric

deterministic, model-aware fixtures let production collection paths exercise firmware, optics, management interfaces, counters, and hardware sensors before touching physical systems.

7 engineers coordinated / planned timeline reduced 60%

02 / agent contracts

intentfile

a small, open format that gives agent work an objective, permission boundary, acceptance criteria, and proof of done across Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, MCP, and A2A.

OCT Copilot Lab interface showing retinal scan analysis and model evidence

03 / medical imaging research

OCT Copilot Lab

a retinal scan research demo combining an existing classifier, Grad-CAM++ region highlighting, and structured draft reports while keeping uncertainty and the human role explicit.

experience

shipped in real environments.

full experience

the archive

the strongest work is above. the full path stays visible.

browse 32 public builds across agent systems, AI research, developer tools, products, and experiments. older work remains available without competing with the current focus.
