Hi, I'm CarlosAbout
Operator first, engineer second
I'm a Raleigh-based developer and CompTIA A+ certified IT pro. My dad and I run CRG Flooring, and right now I'm onboarding on the sales side of the business while building the tech that runs it.
That crossover is my favorite work: quoting tools, a back office, a LiDAR floor-plan scanner for the iPhone, and AI agents that handle estimates and subfloor checks, all shaped by what I see on real jobs and in real sales calls.
I also build systems for other service businesses, a lot of it private and internal, and I mentor new developers at Code the Dream.

AI agents
Kenbun, my own agent harness
An orchestrator I built and run alongside Claude. It splits work into pipelines, routes each step to the right model (cloud or local), enforces design tokens, and reviews the result before anything ships.
- Dozens of pipelines: design_ui, code_review, bug_fix, research_implement…
- Routes between Claude, Gemini and local models running on my own hardware
- Talks to Claude over MCP: one bang command, like !Orchestrate, kicks off a run

CRG Flooring
Flooring tech
PlankScan, an iPhone LiDAR app that turns a room scan into a floor plan, square footage and baseboard takeoff, plus Kenbun pipelines for quotes and subfloor moisture checks.
Private client work
Voice-agent systems
A setup pipeline a client's team uses to configure voice agents from a CLI, from Claude or Cursor over MCP, or from ChatGPT.
Infrastructure
Sovereign fleet bridge
Three machines on a private Tailscale network, bridged with FastMCP so agents decide whether a job runs locally or in the cloud. Written up as a research paper.
Kaggle × Google DeepMind
AST-Guard
My paper for the Gemma 4 Developer Agent hackathon on guarding agent code edits at the syntax-tree level.
