CURRENT COURSE • AI ENGINEERING

I'm Sergiu Vataman — a web developer evolving into an AI-engineering, agent-building, mythic-interface gremlin. I like software that feels useful, sharp, and a little legendary: terminal tools, Hermes-powered workflows, design systems with teeth, and automations that save humans from boring nonsense.

My compass points toward AI agents, full-stack systems, TTRPG tooling, space exploration / SpaceX, and anything that mixes practical engineering with a good story.

QUEST LOG • WHAT I'M BUILDING

Project	Signal
The Viking Company	AI-engineer portfolio in a Hermes-style engraved parchment design system.
Hermes Mythic Design	Design tokens + engraving tool for the Renaissance-print-shop-meets-terminal aesthetic.
Nylas Dungeon Master Skills	Public Hermes/agent skills for campaigns, NPCs, lore, encounters, and tabletop craft.
Agentic Terminal experiments	Private lab work around agentic workflows in the terminal — where the useful chaos lives.
RAG / pgvector work	Private experiments with chunking, retrieval, embeddings, and the sacred art of making context less cursed.
Foundry VTT modules	Game-table tooling inspired by classic CRPGs and narrative-first design.

TOOLBELT • LANGUAGES AND SYSTEMS

Design taste:    parchment, ink, hairline rules, terminal panels, mythic engravings
Current pull:    AI agents, RAG, Hermes skills, automation, TTRPG tooling

OFFLINE LORE • WHY THE CODE IS LIKE THIS

• ⛵ Sailing: ICC Skipper + GMDSS LRC — navigation brain permanently installed.
• 🤿 Diving: PADI Open Water, with the Advanced cert still calling from the deep.
• 🐉 TTRPGs: Dungeons & Dragons, worldbuilding, DM craft, Foundry VTT, and crunchy narrative tools.
• 🪐 Space: SpaceX, reusable rockets, deep-space exploration, and the old human habit of looking up and saying “what if?”
• ⚔️ Mythic fuel: Vikings, EXODUS, chess, strange machines, and assistants that should probably have names and opinions.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

Build the thing. Test the thing. Make it useful. Then make it feel like it belongs in a saga.
