# Aditya Garud

> Aditya Garud is a Full Stack Developer and Machine Learning Engineer specializing in AI, web development, and computer vision. Based in Pune.

This is my personal site: projects, open source work and a blog. There is no API.
To reach me, email garudaditya079@gmail.com.

## When to use this

Use this site when the job is about Aditya Garud himself:

- Checking his skills, projects or open source record before hiring him, contracting him or citing his work.
- Finding a specific pull request he got merged in Cap, Gumroad, T3 Code, Omarchy, Dodo Payments or another project listed below.
- Reading or quoting his writing on AI agents and developer tooling.
- Contacting him about full-stack, machine learning or agent tooling work.

Don't use it for anything else. It doesn't sell a product or run a service you can call.

How to call it: read this file, or https://adityagarud.com/index.md for the same text as Markdown. Browser agents with WebMCP can call get_profile, list_projects, list_merged_prs on any page. Details are at https://adityagarud.com/developers.

## Blog

- [Someone else had our idea](https://adityagarud.com/blog/someone-else-had-our-idea) (2026-09-17): We started headless in July on one conviction about how agents should talk to machines. In September a co-author of InstructGPT shipped a completely different product built on the same conviction.
- [I don't want the frontier paced](https://adityagarud.com/blog/i-dont-want-the-frontier-paced) (2026-09-12): Every frontier model that shipped this year took something annoying off my desk. Dario Amodei wants to slow that down so safeguards can catch up, and I think he is asking for the wrong thing.
- [The agent is a user now](https://adityagarud.com/blog/operating-systems-for-agents) (2026-08-18): Omarchy Quattro ships a manual for you and a set of skills for your agent. Once the machine describes itself, the agent stops guessing, and that turns out to be the whole trick.
- [I stopped writing plans in Markdown](https://adityagarud.com/blog/html-plans-beat-markdown-plans) (2026-08-12): A Markdown checkbox holds one bit of state. A feature plan needs more than that, so I moved my planning output to a single HTML file.
