This site

Oct 2026, Side project2026.10

Designed and written with Claude Code from my resume and LinkedIn profile, then taken to production by an agent in Cursor. Version two came from my own review of the live site.

  1. Added: A changelog of my career, built under two Claude skills: Impeccable for design and my own writing standard for copy.built with AI
  2. Added: Production from one Cursor prompt: a private GitHub repo, Cloudflare Pages, a deploy on every push, and DNS moved from name.com to Cloudflare.built with AI
  3. Changed: Version two after reading the live site as a hiring manager would: plain-word labels on every line, LinkedIn detail, and deeper release notes.
  4. Removed: Left out an AI chat widget. Shipped work tells a hiring manager more than a chatbot does.

2026.02

ReturnKoto?

Founder

Feb 2026 to present, Remote2026.02

A free site that replays an investment over the real NAV history of Bangladeshi mutual funds, with dividends reinvested. I designed and shipped it myself with Claude Code and Cursor, and I run it.

  1. Added: 169 public pages: a calculator, 38 fund pages, 90 head-to-head comparisons, weekly data reports, guides, and a FAQ.built with AI
  2. Added: A data pipeline with its own parser for each of 10 fund managers' websites. It validates every price before the site rebuilds itself.built with AI
  3. Added: A publish-or-withhold rule: a figure is either right or not shown. Drift detection stops a bad sync before it reaches the page.
  4. Fixed: A fund manager reported our numbers as wrong. The audit found month-end dividends falling outside the look-back window. After the fix, the manager's own published returns reproduce to within 0.01 percentage points.
  5. Added: A Claude skill that holds every post and page to one writing standard: no unverified figures, no vague authority, no filler.built with AI
  6. Withheld: Fund B, 5-year return: figure not shown, withheld: two sources disagree. Illustration of the rule, not live data.

  5. Removed: Dropped reward mechanics that did not move Day-7 or Day-30 retention or LTV, found through A/B tests in Amplitude, Mixpanel, and SQL.
  6. Added: A funnel scorecard of DAU/MAU, conversion, retention, and LTV that set the order of the roadmap.
