Building an Agentic AI Email Client

In the process of building an agentic AI system, I will first build the "agentic" and "system" part, touching very little on AI. There are several reasons for this. Auditability is one of them. I want to know exactly what is happening and why. I think AI is mostly unnecessary for both (1) action-taking and (2) decision-making for me at this point.

Resizing and scaling images in python. And a filename-insensitive data loader.

Recently wrote this utility, to resize and scale a python image at the center. This way, I don't have to worry about how my images are being fed into an AI pipeline, if they all get scaled and cropped the same.

Additionally, while previously I used bash to rename files in a folder to sequential names such as 1.jpg , the current implementation ignores filenames, which saves me time when massaging the data.
