About

Nick Sevostiyanov outdoors in British Columbia

What I’ve done

  • Took a browser agent from 73.3% to 95.6% on a fixed test set as founding engineer at Anticipation Labs, and rebuilt its dashboard with 291 of 291 tests passing.
  • Was the primary developer on a seven-person BCIT industry project for Bridge2AI: plain-English questions turned into SQL with the Claude API, backed by 99 automated tests.
  • Run my own TrueNAS server on ZFS with snapshots, shared with friends and my own machines over a Tailscale VPN. I handle storage, access and recovery myself.
  • Built and ran the Ariadne Leather store on a server I manage: payments, live Canada Post shipping rates, receipts and fulfilment.
  • Am building Peltify, a media-tracking app in Next.js and TypeScript, now in pre-launch validation.
  • Built a permit-filing agent that fills BC electrical permit forms as drafts and never submits on its own. 120 of 120 tests pass.
  • Handled support, payments and order tracking for 50+ freelance clients from 2020 to 2021.

Anticipy

An AI assistant that hears tasks in live conversation and completes them in the user’s own logged-in browser.

  • Raised the vision-LLM browser agent from 73.3% to 95.6% (33/45 to 43/45) on a fixed 45-episode MiniWoB++ regression set over seven paired A/B experiments with McNemar tests. Kept three changes, reverted four.
  • Fixed four failing layers of the Manifest V3 extension that drives Chrome over CDP: transport races, WebSocket fragmentation, hardcoded routing and focus stealing. Runs up to three jobs at once.
  • Designed a versioned /v1 REST API with Clerk authentication, shared by the web dashboard, SMS and the iOS app. The iOS app was ported against it with 140 tests passing.
  • Rebuilt the dashboard design system in Next.js, React and Tailwind CSS with 291 of 291 tests passing.
  • Stood up production on Railway, Supabase, Vercel, Expo/EAS and Twilio.

Bridge2AI

A natural-language data analyst: ask plain-English questions of .xlsx or .csv data and get tables or JSON back, including over SMS.

  • Primary developer on a seven-person BCIT team.
  • Built the import pipeline in Node.js and MySQL, Claude API text-to-SQL, table and JSON output, and Twilio SMS access.
  • Wrote 99 Vitest tests. 28 check answers against hand-verified Excel counts, and one caught an AND/OR error in AI-written SQL.
  • Bridge2AI built it into its own dashboard.

Permit Filing Agent

Takes a BC electrical permit request by SMS, validates it, fills the permit form as a draft and returns timestamped receipts. It never submits on its own.

  • Zero-dependency Node.js (ES modules) with a deterministic agent loop and node:test.
  • Any plan ending in a submit step halts and returns a refusal receipt.
  • Fail-closed field mapping: one unresolvable value means no fill.
  • 120 of 120 tests pass, including a 32-scenario suite. Five deliberate regressions were each caught.
  • Mock portal and mock SMS only. Never connected to a live portal or real users.
