AI-SRE
Help people understand first, then act safely
AI turns noisy incident signals into something a person can reason about. Real changes still require evidence, boundaries, and human consent.

RELAYOPS
Turn scattered knowledge into context you can find again
It reads docs, finds code, and checks the current state. When it knows, it shows the source; when it does not, it says so.

Starwake Arena
I wanted a strategy game that reaches flow before it reaches a manual. A few minutes per battle, with every choice reshaping the board.

The smallest need on a trip can become the most urgent. LooAround helps people find free, accessible, and family-friendly public toilets nearby.

CCOO Learning
A home for curious people from different fields to meet—connecting public stories, member experiences, and the everyday work of a community.

05PRIVATEAI STORY GAME
Everyone Is Lying
Could AI make a story feel alive without quietly changing the truth? This detective game lets every character lie while keeping every clue fair.
BUILDING NEXT / IN VALIDATION
One active bet, with explicit exit criteria.
Status, next experiment, success, and kill criteria live on one decision card.
04 / VERTICAL SLICE / BUILDING
TicketForge
Turn the current interaction simulation into a real ticket → sandbox diff → tests → evidence pack. No automated push or MR yet.
- CURRENT STATUS
- Interactive simulation available; no repository execution
- WHAT EXISTS TODAY
- A flow simulation, system boundaries, protected surfaces, and the evidence schema exist; no repository, sandbox, or tests are connected.
- NEXT EXPERIMENT
- Build one replayable isolated vertical slice from an authorised, low-risk repository ticket.
- SUCCESS CRITERION
- An engineer can judge the diff within 10 minutes, and every claim points to a test or file.
- KILL CRITERION
- Stop expanding automation if the evidence pack does not reduce review time or requires heavy manual context.
SYSTEM NOTES / EARLY THINKING
Ideas stay short until evidence earns more space.
These are not shipped products. Each note states its current status and next decision.

EDUCATION
M.S. & B.S. in Life Science · National Central University
Life science trained me to form hypotheses, design experiments, and let evidence challenge the answer.AI NOTES / THINGS I’M LEARNING
I turn the mistakes I make into something you can take with you.
No magic spells—just clearer thinking, braver experiments, and an honest look at the result.
01 / PROMPT
Turn a fuzzy thought into something AI can do
A prompt method built around goals and acceptance—not magic words.

The best ideas often hide inside the sentence: “Why am I doing this again?”
