• Built a keyboard-invoked Windows desktop overlay that routed requests across user-selectable AI models through Eden AI rather than behaving as a conventional chatbot window.
• Designed a parallel two-path request architecture: the primary model answered the user while a lower-cost secondary model extracted durable context and updated compact persistent memory.
• Added an execution layer that mapped natural-language intent to predefined application functions including calendar views, document helpers and Pomodoro timers before rendering results.
• Implemented local API-key configuration, persistent application state and multiple interface themes, iterating on the boundary between model-generated output and permitted desktop actions.
• Explored retrieval/context techniques to let the assistant use stored information and application state without sending an unbounded conversation transcript on every request.

• Evolved an early static HTML hobby site into a dynamic PHP/MySQL application with account authentication, hashed passwords, profiles, settings, watch-state categories, ratings and social/forum features.
• Separated application logic from large-file delivery by connecting Hostinger-hosted backend services to a Bunny CDN media library.
• Built a Python ingestion pipeline, later wrapped in a Flask dashboard, to replace a manual workflow for metadata collection, file cleaning/normalisation, database updates and CDN uploads.
• Used parallel headless-Chromium automation to discover titles and episode structures, collect metadata/artwork, organise files with clean slugs and prepare structured records for the application.
• Turned repeated operational tasks into one managed workflow, reducing dependence on separate FTP, database and file-management tools.
