Applied AI - Automation - Reliable agent systems
Building AI systems that can be inspected, governed and used in practice
I combine applied AI with more than 20 years in enterprise IT, automation, operations and cybersecurity. My work covers retrieval systems, agent orchestration, user-facing AI products, provenance, evaluation and controlled execution.

Two complementary ways to review the work
The proof packages show working systems and implementation evidence. The capability inventory shows the reusable control models, reasoning structures, context mechanisms and governance methods behind them.
Evidence route
Proof packages
Review current evidence for retrieval, agent safety, product engineering, provenance and runtime governance.

Capability route
Capability inventory
Review reusable methods for controlled execution, reasoning under uncertainty, semantic orientation, context acquisition, capability reuse and bounded activation.

Source-pinned proof packages
Four current flagships
Each package separates implementation evidence, public demonstration, source pins, limitations and non-claims.
Retrieval and graphs
Intelligence Engine
Hybrid lexical, semantic and graph retrieval with schema-driven domains, REST, MCP and an interactive web UI.

MADS
A controlled development environment where agent proposals become reviewable ChangeSets rather than uncontrolled host actions.

Capability inventory
The systems behind the systems
The inventory exposes reusable capabilities for controlling execution, reasoning under uncertainty, keeping context trustworthy and discovering or activating existing capability without unnecessary duplication.

How I work
Evidence before confidence
I prefer systems where implementation claims can be inspected and risky actions remain bounded.
- - Pin source and implementation receipts.
- - Separate tests, runtime evidence and documentation claims.
- - Replace private operational data with synthetic public demonstrations.
- - Keep limitations and non-claims beside strengths.
- - Route risky actions through policy or human approval.
- - Preserve earlier evidence when systems evolve.
