Arrit Gashi

Summary

Computer-science graduate and Fortune 50 lead designer who ships complete products end to end — five live on the App Store, the Figma Community and GitHub — with Claude Code and Codex as the primary development environment. Intent coder: precise briefs, small verified changes, lean token budgets, and the AI tooling itself treated as engineering — routed subagents, boundary hooks, pre-launch multi-agent audits.

Claude Code engineering — tooling built on Claude Code itself

• Model routing for Claude Code — github.com/arritgashi/claude-code-model-routing. Open source, MIT. Subagents pinned to Sonnet, Opus or Fable by task, an escalation ladder where a failed attempt climbs one rung, and a /routing-usage skill that charts tokens per model from the transcript.
• Write-boundary hooks. PreToolUse hooks on Write/Edit and Bash/PowerShell refuse any write outside the project — 216 deny rules, a 23-case regression battery — so one repo can read 50+ sibling repos and never modify one.
• Honesty-rule research agents. A metric must exist in the repo, “shipped” means a stranger can use it today, a link goes live only after it resolves. Read-only agents verify; the main thread is the only writer.
• Multi-agent audits. Fan-out finders plus an adversarial verification pass; the PollXYZ run put 57 agents on the codebase and returned do-not-ship before launch, not after.

Shipped

• PulseApp CRM

  ShippedApp Store · Expo · Supabase · 2026

  Turns a mortgage or real-estate professional's contact book into a ranked daily call queue.

  • Three products on one engine; contacts encrypted on-device under a key sealed into two lock boxes, so the operator holds only ciphertext. Nine subscription tiers, three languages, zero third-party SDKs; cleared three App Review rounds.

• Tend Daily

  ShippedApp Store · Expo · SQLite · 2026

  Tells a home gardener what needs watering today, in one notification, entirely offline.

  • No account, no backend: pure-TypeScript product logic, tested before any screen existed. 308 unit tests including a simulated year of reminders across six climate regions; a contrast script gates the build on WCAG; three languages.

• Aether

  ShippedFigma Community · vanilla JS · 2026

  A Figma plugin that pastes HTML and Tailwind in as real layers, and turns any frame into an AI brief.

  • Converts pasted HTML, Tailwind or CSS into native Figma layers — auto-layout, gradients, shadows, fonts, SVG — and walks any frame into a structured brief for a coding model. 13k lines, zero dependencies, no build step; a cleanup pass cut ~580 dead lines.

• ModerationKit

  ShippedSource on GitHub · Python · FastAPI · 2026

  Self-hosted image moderation that runs offline, and corrects a documented bias in the model it depends on.

  • Two models behind one verdict — a NudeNet detector on the full 104 MB weights plus a Falconsai transformer — with a three-stage pipeline compensating a ~3× documented bias. API, Gradio UI and batch CLI off one core; four framework integrations.

In progress

• Halbreven

  In progressExpo · Supabase + RLS · iOS / Android / web · 2026

  Replaces the group chat for recreational sports: ratings, balanced teams, and reliability you can see.

  • The security model is the database. Row-level security on every table through security-definer helpers; multi-table writes are stored procedures on tables with no insert policy, so a half-created group is unrepresentable.
  • Anonymity by structure, queue by derivation. The ratings table has RLS enabled and zero policies; the waiting list is one nullable column — order by sign-up time, take the first N — no renumbering job, no lock, no race.

• BRAIN

  Complete · unpublishedElectron · React · transformers.js · 2026

  An encrypted personal knowledge base that runs entirely on your own machine, with no server and no account.

  • Encryption that fails closed. XChaCha20-Poly1305 under an argon2id-wrapped data key, each ciphertext bound to its row and field so a moved blob refuses to open; a passphrase change re-wraps the key, not the corpus.
  • 20 evaluation suites — one caught a real plaintext-export leak, closed by making the export firewall an allowlist. P-256 challenge signatures verified offline by a single HTML file; two runtime dependencies.

• PollXYZ

  In progresspollxyz.com · Expo monorepo · Supabase · 2026

  A city-scoped opinion polling app where the demographic result, not the user, is the product.

  • Pre-launch security audit as a 57-agent workflow — reconnaissance, nine parallel finders, adversarial verification of every finding: 46 raw, 43 verified, 3 refuted, 23 distinct vulnerabilities (2 critical). Verdict: do not ship.
  • Remediated from findings, not the roadmap. Both criticals closed, four batches of database patches, three edge functions rewritten; one-device-one-vote moved from the client into a server-side procedure.

Experience

1. Lead Product Designer, AI and Supply Chain · Lowe's Companies, Inc.

   April 2025 — Present · Mooresville, NC
   • Designed and shipped an AI assistant now live to 20,000+ Supply Chain users, built with Claude and GPT Codex.
