Projects
CodeDiff AI — Economic Security Engine
Flagship- •Built an intelligent security pipeline that translates vulnerabilities into financial risk (e.g., GDPR fines, fraud liability) instead of only developer-style lint errors.
- •Implemented Multi-Model AI Orchestrator (DeepSeek/Groq for syntax + Gemini for risk context + HuggingFace for intent classification) to audit PRs with higher precision.
- •Added Interactive Attack Simulation (Neural Terminal) that generates a deterministic exploit replay so developers can visually understand the bug impact.
- •Created Zero-Trust Math Layer using Luhn validation to suppress false positives for PCI checks and prevent AI hallucination.
- •Designed event-driven architecture with Inngest for reliable PR processing: <100ms webhook response, retries, idempotency, and parallel execution.
