OpenAI Developer Community

Hi everyone β Iβm Vakeesan Mahalingam.
Iβm the former CEO and co-founder of Torram, a 5x founder, and Iβve been building with AI since 2023.
A lot of my work sits at the intersection of AI, web3, developer tooling, automation, and operator systems. One of the projects Iβm especially focused on right now is MartinLoop, where I think a lot about coding agents in real workflows, human-in-the-loop control, observability, verification, stop rules, and long-running automation.
My web3 background shaped how I think about trust, incentives, coordination, and adversarial edge cases, and that lens has carried over directly into how I build AI systems today.
Iβm here to learn from other Codex CLI users, share whatβs working, and compare notes on where agentic workflows still break in practice.
Looking forward to meeting everyone here.
