MechatronicSurge

Exploring the space between mechanical and digital

Engineering-grade AI systems built by one mechanical engineer with a workshop, a GPU, and a low tolerance for software that phones home. Everything here runs local-first, ships as a real installer, and gets used every day.

The Flagship Builds

Two products, one thesis

Your context is the asset. Synapstack OS captures it. Kyara acts on it. Neither one asks you to hand your life to someone else's server.

Live · iPhone + Web + MCP

Synapstack OS

A personal journaling system with an API. Capture on iPhone, review on the web, and let an AI assistant read and write the same journal through a remote MCP server — no copy-paste, no export step.

  • Native iPhone capture — Expo/React Native app wrapping Apple's Journaling Suggestions picker
  • Edge backend — Cloudflare Workers on D1 and R2, sync engine built in
  • Remote MCP server — OAuth over Streamable HTTP; Claude reads and writes entries directly
  • No delete tool, by design — a deliberate blast-radius limit on anything an agent can touch

Kyara

An always-on desktop AI companion. One hotkey brings her up over whatever you're doing — voice in, voice out, with a 3D avatar, persistent memory, and hands on your actual tools.

  • Realtime voice — push-to-talk pipeline with barge-in, not a chat box with a mic button
  • VRM avatar — three-vrm rendering with viseme lipsync, custom outfits and motions
  • Persistent memory — local SQLite, rolling summarization, three swappable personas
  • Real integrations — Gmail, Omi wearable feed, screen capture, web and X search

The Lab

What else is on the bench

Working pipelines and experiments that feed the flagship builds.

Voice-to-Print Pipeline

Speak a part description and get a ready-to-slice 3D model through automated speech capture, geometry generation, and a direct handoff to the Bambu X1C.

Prototype

Agentic Automation

Multi-agent crews that plan, execute, and iterate on industrial controls and material-handling tasks — market research and technical drafting without the babysitting.

In development

Wearable Context Bridge

Always-on wearable audio piped into the same memory layer Kyara and Synapstack read from, so a hallway conversation turns into a task without anyone typing it.
