## Case studies

- [Zyora, a token launchpad on Arc](https://takshakmudgal.com/work/zyora): I wrote the Solidity contracts, the chain indexer and the launchpad API for a token launchpad on Circle's Arc chain: 304 tests, 47 launches, and launch liquidity that no wallet can withdraw.
- [Claude, connected to your Search Console](https://takshakmudgal.com/work/mcp-server): A remote MCP server at BabyLoveGrowth.ai with its own OAuth layer and 15 tools, 14 of them mine, so anyone can ask Claude about their own Search Console and Google Analytics data.
- [Two silent failures in a weekly report](https://takshakmudgal.com/work/weekly-report): The weekly SEO report email stopped for three days without a single error. The cause was a lock that was never released, and behind it, a queue that starved itself.
- [NFT staking on Robinhood Chain](https://takshakmudgal.com/work/gremlin-cartel): A staking contract and app for a 5,000-NFT collection on Robinhood Chain. 665 NFTs are staked by 174 wallets, and 56% of them are locked for a full year.
- [Eight months at BabyLoveGrowth.ai](https://takshakmudgal.com/work/babylovegrowth): 499 merged pull requests across six repositories: an MCP server, a Quora engine, white-label onboarding, an npm package, free SEO tools and the reliability work in between.
- [Token launches on Robinhood Chain and Solana](https://takshakmudgal.com/work/stories-fun): A one-transaction launch on Robinhood Chain, simulated before the wallet signs and re-verified on the server, plus a Solana launcher on Meteora's bonding curve and the 2025 Anchor presale program.
- [Shorting a token through an AMM](https://takshakmudgal.com/work/duo-liquidity-damm): An Anchor lending pool that lets a trader short a token by selling borrowed tokens through Meteora's DAMM v2 by CPI, and liquidates positions below a threshold set per pool.

## Open source and projects

- [rowboat](https://github.com/rowboatlabs/rowboat/pull/94): An open-source AI coworker from a Y Combinator company. My pull request #94 was the first from outside the founding team to be merged, on 28 April 2025. It was a small fix: theme persistence and the toggle icon.
- [the-parsoor](https://github.com/mercledao/the-parsoor): The parsing engine behind OpenRep, with one parser per protocol for on-chain transactions. During my Mercle internship I wrote its Uniswap V2 parser, then the Uniswap V3, UniswapX and LI.FI parsers, which are still on its main branch.
- [babylovegrowth-next-js-blog](https://www.npmjs.com/package/babylovegrowth-next-js-blog): A dependency-free client and an npx init command that scaffolds a full blog into a customer's Next.js App Router site: list, article and tag pages, a sitemap, JSON-LD and daily revalidation. I wrote every commit of the package at BabyLoveGrowth.
- [Talawa](https://github.com/PalisadoesFoundation/talawa-api): Community management software from the Palisadoes Foundation. Three small merged pull requests to its API and admin app in early 2024.
- [jup-100xtakshak](https://github.com/takshakmudgal/jup-100xtakshak): A payment gateway that settles the merchant in USDC whatever token the payer holds, using Jupiter's swap API. It won 100xDevs' bounty on Superteam Earn.
- [honorary-dammv2-crank](https://github.com/takshakmudgal/honorary-dammv2-crank): An Anchor program that owns a Meteora DAMM v2 position accruing fees in the quote token only, then pays investors pro rata to their Streamflow-locked amounts and the creator the rest, through a permissionless crank that runs once a day.
- [solsec](https://github.com/takshakmudgal/solsec): An open tracker of Solana security incidents that polls Flipside or Helius for new exploits and takes community submissions for the rest.
- [optibridge](https://github.com/takshakmudgal/optibridge): An API that finds the cheapest route to bridge tokens across EVM chains from live bridge fees, with Redis caching so repeat requests skip the fee lookups.
