Israel builds in public, usually with a backend problem nearby. The channel has covered a self-hosted Telegram Search Engine, a hotel-management system with an AI CEO, and Fayda MCP, a Python library for identity verification workflows. Between launches, they explain agents, sandboxing, JSON-RPC, and the bugs that make software feel alive.

The journey.

  1. May – Jun 2026

    Search Engine Summer

    The channel began with coding challenges, architecture lessons, and long locked-in sessions. By June, that energy had turned into Telegram Search Engine: a self-hosted, open-source crawler with discovery, AI analysis, search, quality scoring, and a community graph.

    From Pixels to Agents

    July brought a portfolio refresh, WordPress experiments, and a first serious stretch of design work in Figma. Then the focus shifted toward AI agents, from a first agent to practical lessons on RAG, sandboxing, and safe execution.

    The Agent Factory

    October is when the projects started arriving in public: Meri Agent for hotel operations, Fayda MCP for identity verification, and ababye bot for a community test. The channel now reads like a running lab notebook for agents, APIs, ERP migration, and whatever breaks next.
