Shaurya Chandra's Work | ContraWork by Shaurya ChandraShaurya Chandra
Python automation & Rust tools. I ship clean code.
Built an autonomous backend automation engine and standard Model Context Protocol (MCP) JSON-RPC server designed to streamline developer portfolio synchronization and feed live code assets to AI agents (Claude Desktop, Cursor, OpenClaw).
Key Engineering Highlights:
- Zero-Dependency Architecture: Engineered entirely with native Node.js 18+ APIs—eliminating bulky node_modules for instant, lightweight execution.
- Cryptographic Change Detection: Utilizes deterministic SHA-256 hashing on repository READMEs to detect content drift and avoid redundant writes.
- Visual Asset Extraction: Automatically scans repository trees and README markdown to discover and cache hero screenshots and architecture diagrams.
- Dual AI Summarizer: Generates punchy, context-aware project copy via Google Gemini 2.5 Flash with local Ollama fallback.
- Interactive CLI & Automation: Features an interactive terminal binary and silent background daemon scripts for hands-free 24/7 sync. ShopDesk (https://neoshaurya.com/projects/shopdesk): It is an offline-first Windows desktop suite built with Python and Qt 6 for high-speed retail checkout, inventory management, and enterprise accounting. It eliminates cloud latency and recurring SaaS fees by operating 100% locally with embedded SQLite, delivering sub-50ms barcode billing, automated batch-expiry tracking, GSTR-1/3B tax reports, thermal receipt printing, and Tally ERP synchronization. NeoTerminal: is a native, zero-latency Windows terminal emulator engineered 100% in Rust. Designed with a high-contrast neo-brutalist aesthetic (4px borders, zero corner rounding, instant light/dark inversion), it pairs immediate-mode GUI rendering with a multithreaded ConPTY shell backend. Key capabilities include tabbed shell sessions, real-time Git & RAM telemetry strips, deterministic fuzzy history search (Ctrl + R), and global OS-level hotkey integration (Ctrl + Alt + T). neoshaurya.com (http://NeoShaurya.com) is a high-contrast, neo-brutalist portfolio engineered for speed, power-user tooling, and zero fluff. Built with React 19, TypeScript, Vite, and Tailwind CSS, the site departs from generic portfolio templates with a distraction-free hub-and-spoke architecture, a Ctrl + K fuzzy-search command palette, and a custom dual-action Web Audio mechanical keyboard synthesizer. It also integrates an automated edge sync runner that pulls GitHub telemetry and uses Gemini AI to dynamically maintain showcase builds.
