- Rootpass is a tool for data center construction teams to understand what a design change will break before it reaches coordination, fabrication, or the field.
- The demo loads a synthetic DH-North project, then traces from changed equipment such as CDU-01 through connected spools and downstream dependency edges.
- The traversal engine walks the graph to classify direct and indirect hits, then rolls those nodes into cost exposure, labor hours, schedule slip, and a re-issue package.
- AI Assist parses bulletin text with a local LLM path and a keyword fallback, extracting equipment IDs, spool IDs, zones, and change type before the graph engine runs.
- We applied to YC for the Fall 26 batch and are still pursuing Rootpass on the side.
IMAGE ANALYSIS

- I contributed as ryin0000 to this open-source consortium project for whole-body muscle segmentation and analysis.
- Modeling stack: Python 3.11, MONAI 1.3.2, PyTorch 2.4.1, nibabel, scikit-image, pandas, matplotlib, CustomTkinter.
- Supports CPU/GPU workflows, 3D Slicer extension, NeuroDesk WebApps, 3D viewer, and Zenodo-hosted model/template downloads.
