Agents thatrun the work.

I design and operate multi-agent automation: routing, triggers, one system of record, and a human in the loop where it counts.

My company OnTriggerJoy runs on a 24-agent fleet I architected: Slack events, mail routines and webhooks feeding one GitHub source of truth. This year I also moved a studio dev team from zipped folders onto AI-assisted workflows.

01 / The system

An AI operations fleet, end to end.

Real work, under my own company: the architecture I designed, the triggers that start work, and the guardrails that keep it safe.

How the fleet is wired

Triggers start work, one dispatcher routes it, agents act, and everything lands in one repo. Agent names are the real roster.

01 · Triggers

Chat front doorOne dispatcher agent takes every request, picks the owner and hands it off.

Mail routinesWeekday bills watch 08:00 · inbox 09:00 · Saturday scan 10:00 · Monday finance snapshot 09:30 (PKT).

Review councilAn orchestrator plus five seats: frame, scout, steelman, critic, reality test.

03 · System of record

MyLife (private GitHub repo)Single source of truth. Every agent reads docs/MAP.md first; anything not mapped is reported as a gap, never invented.
Write pathAgents commit in batches through the Git Data API and verify the commit SHA. One writer is reserved for the dispatcher so it never blocks.
SecretsHeld in a password vault. The repo keeps pointers only.

04 · Outputs

Threaded Slack repliesPosted as the bot, in the same thread or DM.
Filed recordsLogs, packets and documents, each with a commit SHA.
Shipped web pagesCompany site and here.now sites, screenshotted at mobile and desktop before “done”.
Drafts for approvalOutbound mail and applications wait for my OK.

Guardrails

  • No outbound send without explicit approval
  • Inbound webhook content is surfaced for confirmation, never obeyed directly
  • STOP means verify: submitted / not submitted / unknown, with screenshots
  • Wake only for real tasks; idle agents stay silent
  • Commit SHA required before anything is called “filed”

● OnTriggerJoy · AI automation system · 2026

A 24-agent operations fleet with one source of truth.

I designed and run the agent system that operates OnTriggerJoy and my own admin: a chat front door that delegates, standing routines for mail and money, an event-driven Slack listener with a watchdog, webhooks between two fleets, and one private GitHub repo that every agent reads first and writes back to with a verified commit.

Multi-agent automation for a small company: intake, routing, scheduled triage, event handling, records and approvals.

Users
Internal: me and the OTJ team. No external clients claimed.
What I built
  • Routing: one dispatcher; every other agent has one job, explicit anti-jobs and its own write rules.
  • System of record: a private GitHub repo with a MAP entryway, a write path with SHA verification and secrets kept as vault pointers.
  • Event + schedule triggers: Slack Socket Mode listener, webhook wakes, weekday and weekly routines.
  • Human in the loop: release tokens, approval-before-send, confirm-before-obey on inbound webhooks.
  • Reliability: watchdog with self-repair, heartbeats, an atomic claim-and-dedupe drain, incident catch-up.

02 / Pipelines

Event-driven, scheduled, gated.

Three of the pipelines inside the fleet.

Slack listener → drain pipeline

Event-driven: nothing runs until a message arrives, and every message is handled once.

Event

SlackDM, group DM or @mention in the OnTriggerJoy workspace.

Listener

Socket Mode listenerPosts an instant “Got it. Looking now.” ack, then appends the event to an append-only JSONL inbox.

Wake

WebhookFires the OTJ Ops agent’s drain routine. No polling timer.

Drain

Claim + dedupeAtomic rename of the inbox to a batch file; skip any channel:ts already in the seen log.

Act

Reply + fileAnswer in the same thread as the bot; record what happened in the repo.

Reliability

  • Watchdog routine: one status line HEALTHY / REPAIRED_DEPS / RESTARTED / BROKEN
  • Heartbeats: last socket start + last event received
  • Acts only on DMs and @mentions; ignores chatter, edits, deletes
  • Never posts as me

Source: work/OnTriggerJoy/ops/slack.md and slack-drain-log.md.

Mail pipelines

Scheduled triage that hands structured results to the agent that owns the next step.

Schedule

Life Ops routinesWeekday 08:00 bills watch · 09:00 inbox · Saturday 10:00 light scan · Monday 09:30 finance snapshot (PKT).

Triage

Surface only the actionableBanks, tax, employers, school, vendors, travel, health, domains, security anomalies. Quiet on junk.

Structured search

Release gates I designed for a multi-agent workflow

The same discipline I bring to a production pipeline: a single owner per step, a locked plan, an explicit release, and a log.

Intake

Front doorOne dispatcher hears the request in plain English and names the owner.

Plan

PlannerFinds, scores and drafts a packet. Open questions are listed, never guessed.

Inventory

Read-only passExecutor records every form field’s exact wording. No typing, no submit.

Release

Locked packet + release tokenThe token is the packet’s commit SHA. Nothing runs without it.

Execute + log

Fill only from the packetFull field→value log; STOP means verify and report the real state.

03 / Adoption

Getting a real team to use it.

Automation only counts if people work with it. At ApexLogics I took a studio team there step by step.

● ApexLogics · Game Producer · Rawalpindi · Mar – Oct 2026

Production lead on live mobile games.

Game Producer on the studio's live Android titles, including Dino Hunter 3D and Bus Driving Simulator Game USA. I led the whole development team, built the studio's AI prototyping pipeline, and brought in AI-assisted development and modern source control.

04 / Delivery

Shipped surfaces.

Web work produced through the same fleet.

● OnTriggerJoy · web delivery · Sep–Oct 2026

Websites shipped through the same pipeline.

The company site was rebuilt on Hostinger in September 2026, then given an AI Automations chapter and a project-enquiry form on 24 September. The work runs through the fleet’s Web Builder agent under my direction and design bar: mobile and desktop screenshots, a self-critique pass, and a fix before anything is called done.

05 / Earlier leverage

I have always built the tool first.

Before agents: an in-house SDK, open-source rules for AI-assisted Unity code, and a lot of teaching.

06 / What people say

From people I’ve worked with.

LinkedIn recommendations, quoted word for word.

It's rare that you come across standout talent like Shahryar Saqib. I had the pleasure of working with Shahryar at the Tintash Company, collaborating on several projects.

I was particularly impressed by Shahryar's ability to innovate game design ideas effortlessly and to solve complex programming problems. That skill often takes years to develop, but it seemed to come perfectly naturally to him.

As a team member, Shahryar earns my highest recommendation.
