A bigger priority is to make sure that the bundle upload works.
There's some intricacies with it related to how it handles celery.
What happens if celery isn't running when you upload? What happens if
celery dies during an upload?

Can you get a local copy of Agora running and handle bundle uploads?

Personally, I don't care too much about your CV. The best way to judge
your abilities would be by code submissions.

Here is an easy fix: the snippets currently are generated with a
secret id. Can you fix it so that secret ids can't collide? As I
