chaitanya mishra

Highschool student obsessed with building infrastructure for AI labs. I've shipped over 100 patches to the Linux kernel and I'm a member of the Linux Foundation. Right now I'm building my own self-improving coding agent harness that I use every day.

fun fact: Palantir and xAI both offered me jobs and I had to turn them down because I'm only 16.

Palantir

Built Aegis, a TUI for AIP's control plane. After they saw it they handed me unmetered access to every frontier model on the market and an offer. I'm too young to take it, defense contracts can't clear minors.

xAI

Built a harness for Grok that actually uses its multi-agent shape instead of treating it like one model. Beat their in-house numbers. They sent $10k+ in API credits and an offer. Same blocker as Palantir, too young.

OpenAI

Found Sam Altman's number in a leaked phonebook from a former prime minister and DM'd him cold. He sponsored my API credits and put me in OpenAI OSS.

Anthropic

In the Anthropic OSS program. Applied through the form, like a normal person.

anode★ go · my daily driver

The agent I use every day. One Go binary that's a TUI, headless CLI, JSON event stream, daemon, and SDK depending on what you ask it for. Plugs into around 15 model providers. I built almost everything else on this page with it.

palantir-aegis rust · palantir

palantir-sentinel typescript · palantir

Incident remediation control room. Full lifecycle from alert to resolution: evidence, recommended remediation, scenario preview, approval, writeback, verification, audit trail. Companion to Aegis.

grok-code rust · xai

A TUI for Grok that actually uses its multi-agent shape instead of pretending it's one model. Persistent sessions, replay, slash commands, MCP, web tooling.

cathedral.fabric rust · archived, not maintained
