🪐 PtiCalin

Building modular knowledge systems, developer tooling, and creative automation.

I'm a systems thinker and builder focused on metadata-driven automation, local-first tooling, and structured knowledge systems. My work bridges personal knowledge management (PKM), developer productivity, creative pipelines, and exploratory experiments across blockchain, AI, and worldbuilding. Each project reflects iterative learning, reproducible workflows, and a commitment to open documentation.


Learning in Public Open to Collaboration

Interests & Background

Healthcare × Data Interoperability Years of building registry studies, harmonization frameworks, and clinical research pipelines at major ophthalmology centers. Deeply invested in standardized, high-quality datasets that improve patient outcomes.

Developer Tooling, KMS and Libraries Obsidian plugin development, vault architectures, and metadata-driven automation. Obsessed with reproducible workflows, schema-first design, and local-first infrastructure.

Creative Systems Blockchain tutorials, worldbuilding vaults, and experimental prototypes. I blend academic rigor with playful experimentation—documenting everything for portable, auditable knowledge.

Tech Stack

Focused on local-first, modular, metadata-driven workflows. Each category lists current active use plus near-term evolution.

Languages
  • TypeScript primary for Obsidian plugins (VaultOS) and future cross-tooling.
  • Python automation scripts, data pipelines, AI experiments.
  • Rust systems experimentation (Calin Coin), performance-focused prototypes.
  • C++ low-level learning via minimal engine fundamentals.
  • Bash & PowerShell local environment automation, reproducible setup scripts.
  • SQL (SQLite) lightweight persistence for UNCHAINED and structured metadata.
  • Markdown + YAML schemaed knowledge, frontmatter-driven workflows.
Backend & Services
  • FastAPI rapid API prototyping for UNCHAINED (audio library services).
  • Node.js plugin orchestration, potential lightweight service runners.
  • SQLite embedded, portable DB; considering vector extensions for AI metadata.
  • Docker containerization experiments for isolation and reproducibility.
  • Planned: WebSocket layer for real-time DJ session state.
Frontend & Desktop
  • Photoshop raster editing and asset preparation.
  • InDesign layout for docs and print-ready artifacts.
  • Canva quick social/brand visuals.
  • GIMP open-source image editing.
  • Figma design systems and rapid prototyping.
  • React UI prototyping, component-centric state planning.
  • Tauri desktop wrapper for local-first tooling (UNCHAINED roadmap).
  • Unity 3D/interactive prototypes and engine fundamentals.
  • HTML5/CSS3 semantic structuring, minimal styling emphasis over heavy frameworks.
Data & Modeling
  • YAML/Markdown frontmatter: declarative metadata schemas for vault content.
  • JSON interchange + generated config artifacts.
  • Tagging + relational patterns: lightweight link-based knowledge graphs.
  • Validation: planned schema enforcement (TypeScript types + Python dataclasses).
DevOps & Tooling
  • VS Code primary editor and tooling hub.
  • Git + GitHub versioning, issue-driven iteration, documentation alignment.
  • Scripted scaffolding: template repo generator standardizes project baselines.
  • Planned CI: GitHub Actions for linting, schema validation, build sanity.
  • Environment reproducibility: lean setup scripts, dependency pinning roadmap.
Productivity & Office
  • OneNote + Notion notes, planning, and workspace organization.
  • Excel + Access lightweight data work, ad‑hoc reporting, and quick prototyping.
  • Word + PowerPoint + Publisher documentation, presentations, and formatted artifacts.
  • Outlook + Teams communication and coordination.
  • Clipchamp lightweight video edits and clips.
PKM & Automation
  • Obsidian core PKM app and vault structure.
  • Obsidian Plugin API extending vault behavior, structure enforcement.
  • VaultOS orchestration, structural integrity, plugin lifecycle coordination.
  • Templated note generation: repeatable patterns for knowledge modules.
  • Modular vault architecture: composable domains (worldbuilding, data archive, creative).
AI & Creative Systems
  • ChatGPT prompting, ideation, and exploratory assistants.
  • Microsoft Copilot coding assistance and productivity.
  • Ollama local multimodal inference (image description, tagging).
  • Vision tagging pipeline: descriptive + inspirational asset enrichment.
  • Planned: embedding search (FAISS or SQLite-based vectors) for semantic retrieval.
  • Media metadata normalization: unify tags, sources, and usage context.
Quality & Validation (Evolving)
  • Linting: ESLint (TS), prospective Ruff/mypy (Python) adoption.
  • Structured metadata checks: planned automated schema diff + alerting.
  • Reproducible scripts: consistent outputs for data transforms.
