Builder of practical Linux and Python tools for automation, audio workflows, and operational reliability.

My largest project: a data platform for SCUM game objects, metadata, and lookup workflows.
- Live site: https://scum-db.com
- Focus: reliable ingestion, clean categorization, and fast player-facing search for the SCUM survival game
The SCUM DB pipeline processes game data from extraction through player-facing publication using a modular script-based pipeline (run via scripts/run_pipeline_v3.py). The pipeline uses a dependency DAG to orchestrate script execution across multiple waves of parallel processing.
The workflow covers the full data lifecycle: initializing the items database, extracting properties from game assets, discovering and categorizing game objects, classifying items into types (weapons, clothing, consumables, etc.), enriching with derived data (confidence scores, variant groups, display categories), and publishing results for API and site consumption.
Script counts per rough phase: 20+ discovery scripts, 25+ classification scripts, 40+ enrichment scripts, 10+ publish/post-processing scripts. The dependency resolution ensures proper ordering, with parallel wave execution available in v3.
Operational model: automated updates, staged processing with dependency resolution, and monitored release flow.
