A personal collection of experiments, proof-of-concepts, automation helpers, and small tools built while exploring how systems work.
This repository is intentionally broader than a single security or automation category. Projects may involve Windows internals, Linux, networking, Android, scripting, system administration, or other technical areas that started with a simple question: can this be done, and how does it work?
sam-modifier— a Linux-side helper for locating an offline Windows SAM hive and reducing the repetitive mounting/navigation steps involved in authorized recovery and experimentation.

As the lab grows, experiments can be grouped by area—for example linux/, android/, networking/, or other categories—while each substantial experiment keeps its own README, requirements, limitations, and usage notes.
The projects here are primarily learning artifacts and experiments, not polished production tools. Some may automate repetitive tasks; others may demonstrate a concept, investigate system behavior, or preserve something useful discovered while experimenting.
Some experiments may interact with operating-system internals, credentials, filesystems, networks, or other sensitive components. Use them only on systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test or administer, and read the experiment-specific documentation before running anything.
