Now

What Prasanth Baskar is focused on right now.

Updated: June 2026.

Focus

  • Building this site into the canonical home for my writing.
  • Writing about platform engineering, Harbor, Kubernetes, OCI, and software supply chains.
  • Turning the “Manufacturing Software Like Chips” talk into a stronger essay and presentation.
  • Exploring how AI agents fit into platform engineering as manufacturers, not magic coworkers.

Work

I work around Harbor, container registries, and open source platform infrastructure at 8gears and the container-registry ecosystem.

Learning

  • Better design artifacts for AI agent implementation.
  • Software factory patterns using GitOps, OCI artifacts, Kubernetes, and policy engines.
  • More reliable personal workflows around Arch Linux, Neovim, and tmux.
