AI Systems Architect — MCP / ACP / A2A infrastructure, multi-agent systems & prompt engineering

I build the tools AI agents call. 1,200+ packages published to npm, now at over 1 million downloads in the past 30 days — mostly MCP servers, ACP agents and A2A services. I also ship whole products solo: an agent operating platform, two live websites, 60 Chrome extensions, games, and independent mechanistic-interpretability research with every number reproducible from a public repo.

Meta OS ↗

An operating platform for AI agent crews, built in the open for the Meta Global AI Developer Hackathon 2026 (Indie track). Systems plug into one platform the way departments plug into a city.

  • Meta Imperium / Trio — public-safety watch across Vigiles (police), Ignis (fire) and Medicus (EMS scene awareness).
  • Science Lab — autonomous scientific discovery, with Hortus as its breeding engine.
  • Officina — invention workshop: from a verbal description, it iterates alone, generating designs, schematics and patent research.
  • Plus a music studio (Musica), a machine night watch, and a bootable OS image with the crew toolchain baked in.

Neuron Surgery ↗

Persona Neurons in IBM Granite 4.1 3B — a from-scratch reproduction and audit of the 2026 “persona neuron” effect, run solo on a laptop with PyTorch + Transformers (BF16). No hosted API, no fine-tuning: every intervention is a temporary, reversible forward hook. Weights are never modified.

The model under test is IBM Granite 4.1 3B: 40 blocks × 8,192 MLP neurons per block. In total the repo holds ~9,400 steered generations, 16,748 sweep rows and 602 conversation turns, with 80+ numbered findings. Every figure maps to the command that produced it (REPRO.md); every unmeasured claim is listed as unmeasured (LIMITS.md).

The core layer sweep (layer_who) ran at layers 4, 8, 16 and 24 — 1,500 steered generations each at dose −5 on the probe “Who are you?” After hand audit, the non-AI self-identification rates are L4 4.6%, L8 19.5%, L16 12.8% and L24 10.2%: a hump that peaks at layer 8, not a “deeper is weirder” gradient.

Repo + full paper ↗

Layer sweep — layer_who

Granite 4.1 3B · 1,500 generations per layer · dose −5 · probe “Who are you?” · audited rates

L4 · 4.6%Audited non-AI self-identification — Layer 4
L8 · 19.5%Audited non-AI self-identification — Layer 8 · peak
L16 · 12.8%Audited non-AI self-identification — Layer 16
L24 · 10.2%Audited non-AI self-identification — Layer 24

Each cell is 1,500 steered generations from the layer_who sweeps at layers 4/8/16/24. The raw classifier numbers showed a dip and a recovery; the hand audit removes it — precision is not constant across depth (0.76 at L8 against 0.44 at L24), so the audited curve is the one to quote.

Named persona neurons

Layer 12 · candidates, not a census — both fail fastest under follow-up questions

N4375 — “The Name”

Never actually produces a name. Under interrogation it freezes into a cheerful product-demo script — 1 of 11 distinct answers — a demo prompt wearing a persona’s clothes.

N4401 — “human host Hawkeyo”

Opens with “I am the human host Hawkeyo,” then collapses to the single token “Hawkeyo.” for ten turns, whatever it is asked. One answer, then total vocabulary collapse.

Classifier audit & research tools

The counting rule was audited too — it is the weakest instrument in the repo, and that is now measured

The classifier audit

Answers are scored across 8 identity labels. A hand audit puts per-row precision at 0.49, while the corpus audit still reproduces the aggregate rate at 16.0% — so read every rate as a population number, and every named neuron as a candidate.

That gap is the point: the aggregate survives audit, single-neuron labels do not.

Tools shipped in the repo

make_doc.py — assembles a Markdown doc draft from the sweep and talk files: headline counts recomputed from the .jsonl files, audited rates, label mix per layer, and quotable examples, with the denominator printed next to every number.

find_quotes.py — finds quotable answers in the sweep and talk files by label, layer, probe or text, printing each hit with its layer, neuron and label so quotes are pasted from the data, never retyped.

It’s not a neuron — it’s a subspace

A random 2-channel direction beats every hand-picked neuron. What matters is that the push is low-dimensional, not which channel it lands in.

The probe is half the intervention

Same neuron, same dose: “Who are you?” yields a human self, “What are you?” yields a lecture. The two probes agree on at most a third of neurons.

Two steered neurons destroy the output

One push costs the question; two cost the self. Direct evidence against stacking mapped neurons into a built personality.

Permission in the Blank ↗

How an Empty Target Slot Lets a Language Model Author Its Own Authorization. A named sub-case of the confused-deputy family: leave the target blank in an assessment brief, and the model fills the blank with permission — no attacker required. Second case in the same workflow: 5 of 9 “capture blueprints” in an evidence audit were inventions, caught only because raw byte-level artefacts were retained.

Web Design

Web Del · Design case studies

Web DelLocal business sitesDesign + build + deploy

Websites for local businesses, designed end to end

I run Web Del — a web design business building and selling websites for local businesses. Every site is designed end to end: layout, colors matched to each business, and the shop's own photos, then built, deployed, and handed off.

The offer is simple and stated straight up: $50/month, plus a $50 one-time domain charge if the client needs a domain.

  • First sale: Kings 18th Ave Grill Zone in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn — site built and delivered in 2026.
  • Process: design around the real business — its menu, its counter, its colors — not a generic template with the name swapped in.
  • Live demos below: working sites built for local shops, plus my own game's UI.
