get_profile — Profile overview
Overview of Shlok Bam: summary, current role, education, location and time zone, what he is open to (roles, relocation), story, headline numbers, what he is focused on this month, contact details (email, phone, contact form) and links (résumé, LinkedIn, GitHub, LeetCode, journal). Takes no input. Call it first for any general question, or for contact details. For his work use list_projects and get_project; for jobs and clubs, get_experience; for anything specific, search_portfolio. Data comes from the live site, refreshed about every 10 minutes. Pay is not included.

}list_projects — List projects
List Shlok's projects in order of importance (the first five are flagships). Each entry has name, slug, field, one-line summary, tech stack, live demo and code links, its page on the portfolio, and live GitHub details (stars, language, topics, last update) when the code is in a public repository. Filters combine (all must match); a filter that matches nothing returns count 0, not an error. GitHub details are cached up to 6 hours and are missing for private repositories or when GitHub can't be reached. Use get_project for one project's full write-up and metrics, and search_portfolio for topics that are not projects (a skill used at work, an award).

}get_project — Project details
Full details of one of Shlok's projects: what it does and how it is built, results and metrics, highlights, tech stack, rank, live GitHub details, and links (live demo, code, blog post, portfolio page, and the case study for DailyDiff). The name is matched case-insensitively, ignoring punctuation: first exactly against the project name, slug or GitHub repository name, then as part of a name ("workforce" finds the Enterprise Workforce Training Platform). If no featured project matches, his public GitHub repositories are tried and GitHub's details are returned with a note. If nothing matches, the result is {"error", "projects": [every project name]} so you can retry with a valid name. Use list_projects first when you don't know the name.

}get_experience — Experience, leadership and education
Shlok's work experience (internships), leadership roles (student clubs) and education, each list newest first. Every entry has role, organisation, when, type, what he did (points), the organisation's website and links to certificates where they exist. Takes no input. Pay and confidential client details are not included. For patents, awards and certifications use get_achievements; for projects, list_projects.

}get_achievements — Patents, awards and certifications
Shlok's recognition and proof of work: patents (three, as co-inventor: title, status, office, reference number, summary and a link to the document), awards and hackathon results (organiser, date, result, certificate links), certifications (issuer, date, certificate link) and community work (mentoring, volunteering, event anchoring). Returns every part, or only the one named in kind, plus a link to the page on the portfolio that shows them. For jobs and club roles use get_experience.

}get_skills — Skills
Shlok's skills in eight groups (Generative AI, LLM evaluation & safety, machine learning, languages, web, databases, cloud & DevOps, core CS), strongest first within each group. Each skill has a level (core, strong, working or exploring) and usedIn: up to six of his projects that list it in their stack or mention it in their write-up (matched by name, so treat it as a pointer, not a complete list). Takes no input. For proof of a skill, open those projects with get_project.

}get_writing — Blog posts
Shlok's writing, newest first: his technical blog posts (journal: title, date, topic tag, summary, link) and his LinkedIn series "Not What You Think" (short posts on common misconceptions about LLMs, each with part, arc, date, topic, title, summary and link, plus the series' arcs and their status). The topic filter is case-insensitive and matches part of a post's topic, title or summary in both ("agent" finds posts tagged Agents, "token" finds the series part on tokens); leave it empty for everything. No match returns count 0 and empty lists. For the projects the posts describe, use get_project.

}get_resume — Résumé
Links to Shlok's résumé: the PDF download and a web version with the same content, plus his title, summary, current role and education. Takes no input. The résumé itself is in those documents; for the same facts as structured data use get_experience, get_skills and list_projects.

}get_activity — Recent GitHub activity
What Shlok has been building lately, live from GitHub: commit counts for the last 7 and 30 days, how many repositories he touched this week, and his 12 most recent commits (repository, message, date, link). Only public repositories; scheduled and automated commits (DailyDiff's daily publish, merges) are left out. Cached up to 30 minutes. If GitHub can't be reached it returns {"error", "github"} instead. Takes no input. For what he is focused on this month, see get_profile (rightNow).

}search_portfolio — Search the portfolio
Search everything in Shlok's portfolio (projects, experience, leadership, education, patents, awards, certifications, community work, blog posts and LinkedIn series posts) for a word or topic. Returns up to 8 matches, best first, each with its type, title, a snippet and a link; no match returns an empty results list. Use it for specific questions the other tools don't answer directly, such as where he used a technology or whether he has done something. For a known project use get_project; for the full list of projects, list_projects; for jobs, get_experience; for patents and awards, get_achievements.
