I build systems at the boundary of AI agents, quantitative research, and low-level engineering — and I learn by writing source-first implementations I can actually read end to end.
- 🤖
nanoagent— a source-first study of how agent capabilities accumulate: tool calling → memory → subagents → teams → context compaction → safety, one chapter at a time in ~100 lines of Python each. - 📊
alpha-mining-system— a modular Alpha factor mining platform (genetic programming + DeepAlpha + WorldQuant-style expression engine) across A-share and US markets. - 🛡️ OSINT & AI security tooling — actively contributing to
maigret(3000+ site username dossier) and followingshannon(white-box AI pentester). - 🧱
oslab— an aarch64 microkernel with capability-based IPC, scheduler, and memory design (private, in progress).
My work has moved through a few areas, but the connective tissue is the same: take something usually hidden behind a framework, and rebuild it small enough to understand completely — visual trackers, RL agents, factor engines, and now LLM agents and kernels.
- 🔭 Experimenting with agent safety boundaries (Voight-Kampff empathy tests for AI agents) and context handoff patterns.
- 🌱 Sharpening systems programming on a from-scratch microkernel.
