Over a three-month period, contributed to the masa-umich/mcnugget repository by developing automation and control features for simulation and pressure management systems. Built an autosequence management script with robust state machine design and reliable networking to automate sequencing workflows. Enhanced oxygen fill and fluid transfer logic, introducing configuration-driven safety controls and extensible simulation phases. Improved ignition and coldflow sequences by refining valve timing, abort handling, and logging, while updating YAML-based configuration management for greater flexibility. Leveraged Python and threading to integrate embedded system concepts, resulting in safer, more traceable, and easily deployable simulation workflows with reduced manual intervention and improved reliability.
February 2026 focused on delivering automation improvements for the masa-umich/mcnugget line, increasing reliability, configurability, and throughput. Completed autosequence enhancements (purge capability, MPV timing/configuration, single-side coldflow, configurable press bottles) and ignition sequence improvements (igniter channel support and post-ignition safety valve control). Resolved a critical MPV opening issue during autosequence via updated channel mappings for Ox MPV. Updated configuration management (config.yaml) to support new parameters and enable smoother deployments. These changes collectively reduce manual intervention, improve safety and traceability, and enable more predictable production performance.

In October 2025, delivered the Autosequence Management Script for the Synnax Cluster in the masa-umich/mcnugget repository. This feature introduces a dedicated script for automated sequencing workflows, with robust state management and resilient connection handling to a Synnax cluster. Initiated the launch.py scaffold to bootstrap autosequence execution and pave the way for deployment automation. No major bugs fixed this month; the focus was on feature development and foundational architecture.
