  Protocol simulator

  Air-gapped RFC control plane for a NOC academy — IS-IS, BGP-4, MPLS, SR, EVPN.

  Sole-authored discrete-event simulator. Fidelity registry fails the build if a module is unregistered. 1,474 tests / 89 conformance files. Lab prose executed in CI. Design standards as machine-checkable rules on 1,700+ sanitized configs.

  Fleet SSH orchestrator

  Read-only show-commands across a 9,000+ device multi-vendor inventory.

  Inventory lookup before any socket. Guard splits on ';' and runs before the credential read. Two-hop access after jump host dropped password auth (RFC 4256 / pty expect).

  IS-IS correlation

  Weekly pipeline from a 60-minute timeout to ~10 minutes; then 2.94× lift vs a null.

  Bulk windowed range scans. Monte-Carlo null reproduced 100% coincidence (lift 1.0x); rebuilt to 2.94x lift vs timeline coverage.
