AI Agents in Python
A three-part progression from simple decision agents to LLM-powered agents and clarifying loops that ask before acting.
Technology
Software, AI workflows, architecture, and the tools I build to make the work less brittle.
This pillar collects the engineering side of the site: AI agents, Go systems, JavaScript, browser tooling, static site infrastructure, and the older experiments that still say something useful about how I work.
Recurring pattern
I usually end up here when I want more control than an abstraction is willing to give me. That could mean a custom generator, a Go library validated against a Python reference, or an AI workflow that starts with requirements before any code is written.
