Forward-deployed AI research

Make agent behavior
inspectable by design.

I build and study verifiable, long-horizon agent systems: environments where actions can be replayed, evaluators can be challenged, failures can be isolated, and consequential claims can be independently checked.

Research questions

Where autonomy
meets evidence.

Q1

Long-horizon reliability

How should an agent preserve intent, state, and recoverability across interruptions, tool failures, and changing environments?

Q2

Evaluator robustness

How do we distinguish real task improvement from reward hacking, proxy optimization, judge drift, or incomplete measurement?

Q3

Causal fault isolation

Can a failure be reduced to the smallest reproducible causal slice, then replayed against a proposed system or scorer repair?

Q4

Proof-bound execution

What evidence should an autonomous system retain so another person can audit what happened without trusting its narration?

02

Selected technical work

Systems that expose
their own claims.

Execution evidenceOpen source

Gradia Guard

A proof-bound recorder and verifier for AI execution. It makes claim boundaries explicit and preserves evidence for offline inspection.

  • Hash-chained records
  • Offline verification
  • AG-UI
Evaluation researchOpen source

Gradia Wind Tunnel

An evaluation harness for finding reward-hacking exploits, isolating causal failure slices, and testing whether scorer changes survive replay.

  • Causal testing
  • Evaluator repair
  • Replay
Regression memoryOpen source

ProofSeal

Behavioral evidence for coding agents. Seal a claim once, then check it over MCP or CI before a silent regression enters history.

  • MCP
  • Deterministic checks
  • CI
Mechanistic interventionOpen source

gradia-lens

Open-model intervention research for inspecting computation, changing components, measuring side effects, and restoring the original state.

  • Interventions
  • Side-effect measurement
  • Restoration

Open-source impact

Contribution is a claim.
Show the receipt.

My public contribution ledger separates four signals that are often collapsed: repository ownership, attributed commits, merged pull requests, and GitHub-listed contributor status.

It discovers eligible public repositories automatically and refreshes repository reach, attribution, merged work, accepted line changes, and contributor rank every 30 minutes. Stars describe a repository’s reach, never my personal credit.

01Discover

Find authored and GitHub-attributed work across public repositories.

02Separate

Keep commits, merged PRs, ownership, and contributor rank distinct.

03Verify

Link every public aggregate to GitHub or retained machine-readable evidence.

04Refresh

Recompute the public record instead of preserving a flattering snapshot.

04

Claim policy

Strong claims need
strong boundaries.

I treat evidence quality as part of the engineering. A passing test is not deployment. A local demonstration is not external acceptance. Repository stars are not authorship. An agent’s report is not proof of completion.

Private work is represented only as a redacted aggregate unless disclosure is authorized. Public ownership and upstream contribution remain separate. Uncertainty stays visible.

Built
Source, release, and reproducible behavior are public.
Contributed
Upstream attribution or merge evidence is linked.
Measured
Method, scope, and uncertainty are stated.
Exploring
A question or prototype, not a completed claim.
