New Year, New You Portfolio Challenge Submission

This is a submission for the New Year, New You Portfolio Challenge Presented by Google AI

About Me

I'm Tahir Yamin, an industrial Mechanical Engineer from Pakistan passionate about bringing AI to high-stakes operational environments. My background spans manufacturing automation, power plant operations, and industrial safety systems—domains where a single engineering decision can mean the difference between smooth operations and catastrophic failure.

With this portfolio, I wanted to demonstrate how Google's Gemini AI can revolutionize industrial engineering by transforming static documentation (P&ID diagrams, equipment manuals, safety protocols) into interactive, intelligent assistants available 24/7 on the factory floor.

Cloud Run Deployment (Required)

✅ Successfully Deployed to Google Cloud Run

$ gcloud run deploy aegis-os \
  --image gcr.io/qwiklabs-gcp-04-1def6ef2b7e7/aegis-os \
  --platform managed \
  --region us-east1 \
  --allow-unauthenticated \

Deployment Components:

Multi-stage Dockerfile with Next.js standalone builds
Google Secret Manager for dual-key API management
IAM Secret Accessor role configured
Container: gcr.io/qwiklabs-gcp-04-1def6ef2b7e7/aegis-os

Note: Cloud Run deployment completed on Qwiklabs sandbox. Due to regional payment restrictions (Pakistani bank cards not accepted by Google Cloud billing), permanent hosting faces verification challenges. The Vercel embed above provides full functionality for demonstration.

What It Does

Aegis-OS leverages Gemini 2.5-Flash's multimodal capabilities to provide:

P&ID Analysis - Upload engineering blueprints for instant component identification and risk assessment
Manual RAG Search - Query thousands of pages of technical documentation in seconds
24/7 Industrial AI - Safety-trained assistant for operational support

How I Built It

Tech Stack

Frontend: Next.js 15 + TypeScript

Styling: Tailwind CSS + Custom HUD Animations

AI: Google Gemini 2.5-Flash (Vision + RAG + Chat)

Deployment: Docker + Cloud Run + Secret Manager

Architecture: Dual-key API with 5-tier retry logic

Gemini Integration

Three Multimodal Capabilities:

Vision Analysis:

const visionModel = genAI.getGenerativeModel({ model: "gemini-2.5-flash" });
const result = await visionModel.generateContent([
  { inlineData: { data: base64Image, mimeType: "image/png" } },
  { text: "Analyze this P&ID diagram..." }
]);

RAG Implementation:

const ragModel = getGenAI('rag').getGenerativeModel({ model: "gemini-2.5-flash" });
const chunks = await vectorSearch(query);
const context = chunks.join('\n');
const response = await ragModel.generateContent([
  `Context: ${context}`,
  `Query: ${query}`
]);

Industrial Persona: Fine-tuned safety-critical responses

Design Decisions

API Resilience: Built for 24/7 industrial uptime with:

Dual-key isolation (chat vs. RAG/Vision)
Smart retry with exponential backoff
Daily vs. minute-limit detection

Industrial HUD Aesthetic:

Tactical polygon borders
Biometric scanline animations
SVG noise grain overlay
RGB glitch effects

What I'm Most Proud Of

1. Production-Grade Resilience

Most demos ignore quota limits. I built a 5-tier retry system:

const isDailyLimit = errorMessage.includes("PerDay");
if (isDailyLimit) {
  throw new Error("GEMINI_DAILY_LIMIT: Quota exhausted for 24h.");
}
const delay = extractWaitTime(error) || (5000 * Math.pow(2, attempt));

2. Real-World Impact

Designed for actual plant operators:

Diagnostic time: Hours → Seconds
Safety: Instant instrumentation clarity
Expertise scaling: Junior operators get senior-level insights

3. Technical Documentation

Consolidated learnings into reusable patterns:

skills/gemini-resilience.md - API quota management
skills/industrial-hud-design.md - HUD components
.agent/workflows/gemini-quota-recovery.md - Recovery protocols
